After spending some time in the inn, Jim and others moved on to other rooms.Most of the rooms were locked, so they had to pick the ones that were open. There were some people living in some of these rooms, having fun one way or another. There were those who lost themselves in alcohol, drugs, and sex. There were some that were playing games online.Did all these people also make it to the fourth floor? Jim didn’t know because neither Joker nor Scarlet or others in his team recognized any of these people.They came across some men in the corridor, but none of them seemed friendly. They didn’t say a word and just walked by.It was really weird the way these people acted. Something about them gave Jim the feeling that they were not in their right minds. It’s as if some part of their souls had been permanently damaged.Jim kept walking, and they soon reached the Auction Hall whose doors were wide open. The hall was almost 6000 sq ft in area, and there were more than a hundred people curre
The audience in the auction hall saw the old auction manager sweating and were astonished by it. How come the old man who was a veteran warrior who had endured many battles in his long life be afraid of such a young man?“Master Vince is sweating?”“He looks like he’s unable to move. What the hell is going on?”Many people in the audience didn’t even get what was happening.Nero, however, was analyzing what was happening with his machine eye. “He’s using his psychic vivre to put pressure on the opponent’s nerves. Because it is psychic vivre, it’s not easily perceivable. It can easily enter the body and affect the nerves and thus the brain. It can both soothe and terrify someone as per your wish. Vince probably took a while to realize that it was actually Jim’s psychic energy that is oppressing him. He’s definitely capable of fighting back against that level of oppressive mental energy, so why isn’t he fighting back?”Just then, Nero realized that Vince and Jim had their eyes locked.“
Tenzin arrived at the meeting of the important personnel of the Eight Beast Tribes. All the Masters of tribes were present there, along with other important people.Many of them still didn’t completely think that White Maiden and Bloody Corpse were defeated.The Eight Beast Tribes were: Demona, Nimo, Cali, Jubilee, Lawless, Romane, Hunter, and Shriner.The Eight Beast Masters of the Eight Beast Tribes were: Serpent King of Demona tribe, Necro Knight of Nimo tribe, Wicked Heart of Cali tribe, Dark Shield of Jubilee tribe, Warmonger of Lawless tribe, Big Liar of Romane tribe, Black Sword of Hunter tribe, and Hell Mask of Shriner Tribe.“Not one but two immortals got done in by some brat,” Necro Knight snorted. His skin was pale as the moon, and his pupils were very small, which made him look scary. And he also had a staff made out of raven bones. “Those old bastards must have gotten weaker in the past few years.”“We don’t know if they’re still alive or not,” Big Liar said. He was obese
Bernard reached the blue lodge in the evening, but was still sitting in his custom-made car. The sun would go down in a few minutes. He knew that the police and the private unit he hired might attack at any moment, but he still came here because he wanted to be there when the action happened.The blue lodge looked just like any other lodge at first sight. But only after seeing the symbols on the walls, Bernard understood that this place wasn’t just a staying place but rather a meeting place for many powerful people around the world.The number of hidden security cameras on all sides showed how careful they were in terms of not letting the public know the real identity of the lodge.There were also some people sitting and acting like beggars in front of the lodge, and Bernard knew that they were just put there by the brotherhood.“I can’t believe I came here, but I couldn’t help it,” he told himself while taking a couple of anxiety-controlling pills. “It’s still unbelievable that they
Stanley Jubilee entered the blue lodge.Nobody stopped him because everybody knew who he was.Stanley the Mountain. He was widely known back when he was in this dungeon. And after he left the dungeon, his name spread even more as he did various missions for the brotherhood.Stanley was a member of the Jubilee family, which was known for grooming warriors who were capable of being escorts or bodyguards to the important people of the clan.Stanley didn’t like that he was being forced to be a mere escort of bodyguards of the bigwigs of the brotherhood, but then he saw the mighty power of Tenzin Demona and then willingly became her subordinate.Of course, he also had a crush on her, but he never dared to even speak those kinds of thoughts outside as his head could fly before he knew it.“Why does she want him on her side?” Stanley just couldn’t digest the thought of seeing Jim on Tenzin’s side. “I cannot accept it no matter how much I try to.”As he was walking past a certain room, he saw
As Jim basically harassed Vince, no one stepped forward, and so Nero took it upon himself to do the job.Nero did not move an inch. Out of his artificial eye, an invisible laser bolt flew at Jim in the blink of an eye.BOOM~~!!It collided and caused a mini-explosion, creating chaos all around the hall. Everyone gave up on the auction and began to run away because they couldn’t even tell what caused the explosion.As the smoke settled quickly, Jim was still standing. His vivre sphere was surrounding him and his friends. They all looked fine.Vince was the only one who suffered from the explosion, but Vince was strong enough to bear the pain and injuries. He quickly moved away.Jim didn’t bother to mess with him anymore because he knew who just attacked him. And so Jim turned to face Nero.“All of you also get out,” Jim told his friends.They listened to him and ran away.Nero shot laser bolts at them, too, but Jim created a wall of energy that covered the width of the hall and so bloc
Jim stood fine after blasting Nero’s body to bits, but Jim’s spine was hurting more than he thought. “His last attack was dangerous. I guess he’s not totally trash. Mm?” he looked down, where there was a tiny metallic sphere that started beeping. “Don’t tell me, this is…”[It is a bomb!] Joe shouted. [Run away!]Jim, however, felt like there was no time for that. He immediately punched down on the spherical ball just as it exploded.BOOM~~! PEWSSHHH!It resulted in a strange noise like when a tire or a balloon was being deflated. Jim’s punch was able to literally nullify the explosion by breaking apart the explosive molecules with his combination of somatic vivre and psychic vivre.If he hadn’t done that, the explosion would have easily destroyed half of the fourth floor and killed many people.Nevertheless, the explosion managed to hurt Jim’s hand which looked bruised. His bones in the hand were aching.“To think he’d have such a sucide-bomb put in his own body…” Jim frowned. “These
Everyone in the dungeon, even the ones remaining on the third floor, began to hear a voice in their heads. Those who knew Jim’s voice understood that it was his voice.The message said: This dungeon is likely going to collapse soon. If you want to live, then leave within an hour from now.That was all the message said.Binnie recognized Jim’s voice, even the message was actually delivered with the help of Joe. “Isn’t he a softie?” she smiled while eating the ashes of her late husband. “I was thinking of leaving this world, but now that I’ve heard this message, I’m having second thoughts about dying.”Nightmare Sisters also heard his voice, but they both felt extremely furious.“Sis, how can we destroy him when he’s so strong?” Little Nightmare asked.“Let us first escape from this dungeon. And then we can think about how to fuck his life up,” Nightmare_lily said.A few others that were on the third floor also heard Jim’s voice and hastily acted.The same could be said about those on t
