BXBX NOVEL 730 Chapter 730
Marcus looked down at the gigantic basilisk that had taken over the chamber that housed the entrance to the special dungeon and thought of the best way to dispatch it.
He knew for certain this was not a battle he could lose since his opponent had no way of dealing with him so long as he remained in his ghost form. Since it was currently searching around fruitlessly for him.
However, after his first attack it was quite clear that the basilisk despite its large size was quite lithe and its danger sense skill as high level.
‘I may not be able to bring out any of my physical power so long as I remain intangible, but this should suffice.’
Taking out his scythe, Marcus allowed it to fall from his grasp and ordered it to attack the basilisk.
This immediately got the monster’s attention and it glared at the scythe.
Fortunately, the scythe was completely unaffected by its petrification and flew unabated by the creature’s signature ability.
‘Cataclysmic iron sword. Iron wings of the archangel. Iron Golem.’
Chaining his tier six to tier four iron magic spells back-to-back, Marcus along with the assault of his scythe began attacking with his iron magic.
The sudden appearance of the massive sword bigger than it as well as a eighty foot tall iron golem certainly caught the gigantic basilisk’s recognition, and it became far more warry of what was going on.
In the end though even when the monster got serious it stood little chance against Marcus, who like a master puppet master controlled his magic and scythe to bring the basilisk down.
With one final strike he sliced its head clean off with the cataclysmic iron sword while the iron golem held it down and his scythe sliced off its limbs.
‘It certainly was resilient, but still only about as strong as I would expect an upper quality epic grade magical beast to be. I just wish it had not thrashed around so much. The chamber’s beauty has been scarred a bit.’ Marcus thought as he looked around at the destruction caused by their battle.
Still, he had managed to win without too much effort once he got a bit serious, and once he had placed the monster’s corpse into his item box he contacted the rest of his party and informed them that he had found the entrance to the special dungeon.
After that he returned to them by following the connection he had to his beast companions. Making sure to follow the paths and memorize the way to go rather than just passing through the walls in a straight line.
When he got back, he informed them all of what had happened, and after receiving some praise for dealing with such a dangerous monster they began the journey back to the special dungeon.
“Wow! This is amazing!”
Alaric seeing the chamber and the large doors that served as the entrance to the special dungeon for the first time stared out in awe.
Their group then spent a few minutes enjoying the view before moving onto the island in the middle of the underground lake and approaching the special dungeon.
The doors will still wide open from their last visit as they would remain until its entrance capacity was met.
“Welcome again registered users of special dungeon number elven, ‘Realization of Self Perfection’. I notice that you have brought in two unregistered individuals. Do wish to allow them two of the remaining slots?”
As soon as they entered the dungeon’s main chamber the automated guardian of the place appeared before them and asked this question.
“Yes, please register Alaric Skalbeck and Inten.” Marcus said.
“Very well, these two individuals have been registered. Though as they have not completed floors one through ten yet, they will be unable to accompany the rest of you to floors eleven through twenty until they have. Of course, you may also proceed without waiting for them.” The guardian said before the teleportation circle in the back of the room began glowing.
For all those that had completed the first ten floors this circle would take them to the waiting room that one got to after the completion, but for Alaric and Inten, it would send them right to the first floor where they would likely have to fight a disadvantageous battle that pushed them to really think about how to use their abilities.
“Everyone has double checked that our supplies are properly distributed, so I believe it is time we get going.” James said when they had finished a final check.
To start both Alaric and Inten headed to the teleportation circle and would be going first
Inten for his part walked forward fearlessly, while Alaric seemed to have lead in his boats and nervously moved forward.
“Go on, I believe in you. Go ahead and catch up the rest of the way to me.” Lilia said to Alaric as she gave him a push on his back.
In response he turned around and gave her a bright smile, and it was clear she had helped ease a bit of his nerves.
“We will all be waiting for you both to make it through the first ten floors. Hurry up, but also do not do anything too reckless.” Marcus said right as the two stepped on the teleportation circle.
In an instant they both disappeared, and the rest of the group took their turn on the teleportation circle.
For a bit Marcus felt like they were about to get tricked again and sent directly into the dungeon in random groups, but they found themselves safely within the waiting room between the tenth and eleventh floors.
“I guess now we wait.” Mrazivý said as she moved over to one of the couches and plopped down on it.
She then pulled out a chess broad that affixed itself in the air and beckoned Marcus over.
With a smile on his face, he shrugged his shoulders and indulged his fiancée in a few games while everyone else went about their own business as they waited for Alaric and Inten.
