chapter-407
Adrian did not know that he undid every Quantum Corridor that existed inside the dungeon. He might be a Daemos but he is still not on the level of an Arch Demon when it came to manipulating origin energy.
Nevertheless, it did not change the fact that Adrian is still trapped inside a room. The only way he is getting air is from ten-coin sized holes that are one foot across each other. The only way for him to escape would be to turn himself into a spirit and phase right through the wall.
Adrian is reluctant to become a spirit though. He does not know how thick the walls are. He could die just by losing mana rom phasing. He did not want to take the risk, but he has no other way if he wants to get out of the room.
He could not use Blink because he could accidentally transport himself inside a brick wall. His atoms will be fused with the atoms of the wall. Adrian is pondering what he needed to do but he suddenly felt the room vibrate.
Soon, the vibrations became larger and larger until it came to a sudden halt. Adrian wanted to know what was happening, but he soon found out why. The wall crumbled like paper and he saw beasts of different sizes rampaging.It was not only beasts but also some NPCs and players were in the mix. It seems that they broke out of their cages and started to rampage. Some of them even looked weak due to having been trapped for too long because they started feasting on each other.
The scene in front of him could only be described as a nightmare due to how chaotic it was. He did not even link this incident as him being the one to cause it.
"I need to immediately find the exit. I will just gracefully slip away while they are beating each other up." Adrian though as he unfurled his wings and searched for an exit.
Adrian observed that there are no other monsters that could fly and the players in the western continent do not have flying players. Only humans and orcs could choose the western continent as their starting continent after all.
He then saw that a party consisting of five people of different races slipping out of the fight like him. He followed those five people as they seem to have an item that could locate a way. They were holing something like a pathfinder so Adrian's best bet would be to follow them.
Adrian immediately summoned Sirius so that he will not lose them. The way they went led to never ending halls and doors that would make anyone get lost upon taking the wrong path. Some paths even led straight to another Quantum Corridor that has yet to be activated.
After following the party around, Adrian is sure that they know where they are going. He followed closely but the group suddenly increased their pace. Adrian is trailing them and is about ten minutes away from their location when something suddenly happened.The candle that the Goddess Nox gave him suddenly shot out of his inventory. This made Adrian immediately stop in his tracks and look at his surroundings. Suddenly, shadow like tendrils shot towards Adrian from his left.
Sirius who is more sensitive to shadow magic suddenly shot shadow tendrils of his own to parry the incoming tendrils toward Adrian. Sirius managed to defend his master from attacking and Adrian could now see the one who attacked him.
Monster: Shadow Fiend
Title: Former Envoy of the Goddess of Night
Level: 200
HP: Unknown
MP: Unknown
Description: The former Envoy of the Goddess of Night. She betrayed the goddess when she was struck by the dark gods and weakened. She was then cursed for her betrayal by becoming a monster. The curse turned her into a monster that could only live with total darkness that even the moon's light could never touch.
Adrian saw that the monster before him has a porcelain mask as a face, but a body only made up of shadows. The mask looks like what porcelain glass dolls have and it only made its creepy factor shot up.
"Come on! I do not even have time to deal with you! Can we reschedule this fight another time?" Adrian shouted but the Shadow Fiend did not stop with her attacks.
"I cannot summon Kanlaon here in this tight space. The only one I could summon now would be Charon. Greater Summon: Charon!" Adrian stated as Charon's magic circle manifested.
Charon manifested in its true form. Adrian immediately commanded Charon to use Soul Keep. The Lifeless Lord opened his casket, and a mist came out followed by chains. Adrian used all his nether energy and Primordial Essence to empower this specific skill.
The chains bound the Shadow Friend with ease, but she tried putting up a fight. Slowly but surely, the Shadow Fiend is being dragged inside the casket.
"Charon keep that monster for as long as you can. Use all my mana if you have to." Adrian shouted and Charon nodded.
Adrian commanded Sirius to follow the scent once more. Thankfully, it was still not erased despite stopping for a few minutes. They followed the scent, but they arrived in a wide room with the ceiling being nonexistent.
In that room lay items of other people like weapons and armor. He looked around but all he saw was a huge statue of a sphinx in the middle of the room. The sphinx head looked like it is made of gold with decorations of regal colors.
The sphinx had the body of a lion and wings made of gold. It also had anklets made of shining gold that would make anyone think that the emperor who built it has a lavish taste for luxuries. As Adrian walked to see the items sprawled in the room, Sirius then suddenly became alert as he detected danger.
"DO YOU WISH FOR ETERNAL YOUTH? A SIMPLE RIDDLE AND YOU SHALL ATTAIN IT." A voice from somewhere stated and Adrian looked at the source to be non-other than the sphinx.
