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
The door burst open before Jim even reached the door, and he stopped right after entering the hall, which was more like a living room in a villa with also an indoor pool.“Welcome to my home,” Old Blue started clapping slowly. “You did a marvelous job of beating your way through to this floor as one would expect from someone that picked a hero’s path. I would be lying if I said I expected something like this to happen even though Demon Dwarf told me a few days back that I’m going to be challenged by some youngster. I was thinking that it’d take a few years, but here you are… in just eleven days… you’ve made it almost to the exit. All you need to do right now is get one more victory. A win against this old man just like you bulldozed your way through the other two immortals.”Jim was not surprised by Old Blue’s appearance. He looked like an aged money and lion combo. His skin was all shriveled up, and his forehead had many holds. His head also lost hair in the middle, only had hair on
Ronny and Doug were exploring the fourth floor. Many rooms were still locked from the outside, and nobody was present in the open rooms as most people were just busy running and getting the hell out of the dungeon.And then they reached a room where they saw a woman locked up in silvery chains. They recognized her as it was Nexa.“Ronny the King!” Nexa immediately called for him. “Release me!”“H-Huh?” Ronny and Doug looked very shocked and puzzled. “What are you doing here? Didn’t you get sold?”“Y-Yeah, but they left me here,” Nexa pitifully said. “Please remove these chains. They are sealing off my demonic power. The keys are right there in that drawer. Hurry up.”“T-There’s no way we can release you,” Doug quickly said. “If we do, then you’re going to kill us! Even worse, you’re going to suck us dry!”“I won’t! I promise!” Nexa almost pleaded. “Please help me. I will help you guys get out of this dungeon. I made a foolish mistake when I was trying to escape and then got caught.”“
Joker and others were following those that were running out of the building. They did not care about being caught right now. They were only focused on getting out of there. Because the four of them could run fast, there was no problem keeping up with others.And then they reached the metal tunnel, where they saw people getting pulled toward the walls and glued to them.“What the hell is this?” Scarlet frowned.“Why are they…” Ace frowned.“Not everyone is getting stuck,” Heath said. “I think only those slaves who go out without permission might get stuck.”“Yeah, looks like it,” Joker opined. “Maybe, they are using the metals in the body to pull those humans. It looks powerful. Binnie did warn us that the nanobots in our bodies were destroyed, but not all the metal was flushed out yet. Going through this tunnel could be risky, but… we don’t know if there’s another way out or not. And we can’t afford to waste more time.” Joker said and started running forward. “I’ll go first. If I get
