“Yelena, try to keep up, we still have a long way to go” A man in a group of five who were transversing through the paths underneath the great wall said to the woman behind them who was lagging, the man who spoke, in particular, had a ragged voice, he was dressed in adventurer clothes, a handgun strapped on his waist and in his hands was an assault rifle, a bag filled with unknown things slung over his shoulder as he took the lead, guiding them through the creepy and silent pathways.The other three men behind him all had the same types of dress on, similar weapons also being held by them, the woman on the other hand was dressed in a black hood with a trouser, and in her hands was a gadget that beeped while scanning the surroundings, she had on a frown as she walked behind the men.“I hate this place to the core, my hair is all messed up” Yelena complained with a frown, while adjusting her hair, She hated the environment and she felt like the walls were staring at her, this unnerved h
“A what now?” Rash asked with a frown, his eyes glancing around to see if his enemy was in sight.“A Jiangshi, a Chinese mythical monster, I guessed that we might encounter something like it so I came prepared, actually I prepared for a whole lot but thankfully our enemy is the Jiangshi” I replied, sheathing my gun while glancing in the direction we had just come from.“Well then that’s great, so how do we kill it?” Rash asked with a grin, since I knew about it then I would definitely know how to kill it.“That’s the problem, I don’t know exactly how to kill it, but there are various ways that I learned about but none are actually confirmed, I mean the Jiangshi wasn’t a real thing until now, the only clue I have is this” I shook my head in reply while showing the object in my hands to Rash who collected it and stared at it before staring at me.“Dom, tell me this isn’t a mirror” Rash sighed and said to me.“Unfortunately it is a mirror and the only sensible way that I can think of, or
“Urrg, these chips are really great, who knew that they sold these in the store, I gotta take some time to explore” Rash said while chewing on some whips as we walked through the secret pathways within the great wall, I had summoned Mufasa to clear the rubble, at first Rash was startled and almost shot Mufasa but after some time persuading him that Mufasa was my pet, he finally calmed down and watched as Mufasa worked with his huge paws to clear away the rubble.“Could you shut up and stay alert, we have a Jiangshi to worry about and a loose ‘Katergaris’ on our hands, but technically speaking I’m honestly more worried about Katergaris than of the Jiangshi” I replied, my mind in deep thought, I was trying to formulate a reasonable explanation for meeting Katergaris, even though it was clear that he was here for the same reason why I was, I was still shocked that he would opt to do this himself, the main reason why I was so stressed thinking about him was that I knew how dangerous and e
“This place is huge” I said after we appeared in the dungeon before us was a huge pyramid with a huge skeleton head atop it, the surrounding was dark because it was night, but it seemed like the pyramid was in a desert, due to all the sand around us I could deduce that much, what shocked me the most was the size of the pyramid, it was simply huge, and the menacing head of a creature that I couldn’t recognize even made it seem even larger.“And creepy as hell, what type of dungeon is this, it looks like the movie where the black man dies, and that skull at the top seems to be staring at me, I don’t think it’s a good idea, everything about this place says ‘welcome to your death’ Dom” Rash said to me with a frown, he didn’t like anything about the place.“Stop being so paranoid and let’s go, we don’t have much time” I said grabbing Rash who hesitated while staring at the pyramid.“You know what? I have a better idea, why don’t we not go in and you can send in your Cat lion-ish pet to go
“I said Doctor Strange would win in a fight with Harry Potter” Rash repeated with a serious expression, trying to make his point to me as we appeared on the second floor.“I didn’t say that wouldn’t happen but I’m trying to say that Harry Potter would put up a fight though” I replied with a sigh, not understanding how Rash was so agitated by this, I then drew my attention to the second floor, this was different from the first floor where there were caves, on this floor, there was a huge red orb levitating in the center of the room which was devoid of any statues, only a locked door with seven colorless orb embedded within.“I wonder what sort of test we’ll have to face here” Rash muttered while observing the room curiously, he walked toward the door as I also walked toward the orb cautiously.“It’s locked, yep it’s locked” Rash tried to open the door which didn’t budge so he tried again using more strength but ended up with the same result so he surrendered and turned to the orb.“Wel
“Rock Paper Scissors“ Ben and his brother both said, before putting out their options, Ben put out Rock and Jay put out scissors.“Won again” Ben said victoriously, mocking his brother.“Fuck you, you cheated again” Jay replied with a shrug.“Stop being a sucker, you loser hahahahaha” Ben chuckled in reply.“Whatever I ain’t playing this game no more” Jay grunted turning around to face Samir who sat quietly patting the feathers of his parrot.“Come to think of it, I’ve never heard this guy talking before, have you?” Jay asked his brother who shook his head.“Nope, it’s like he only speaks through his parrot, I’ve never heard him personally speak” Ben replied also coming to realize this fact.“Enemies alert, enemies approaching” The parrot whose eyes were closed suddenly, shot open as these words flew out of its mouth, its master Samir who was also calmly seated turned around to face a particular direction behind the brothers.“Enemies” The brothers hearing this also went on full alert
“Looks like you might be stronger than I thought” Kenos remarked, summoning hordes of black mist above him, his dead eyes actually containing a hint of interest as he stood staring at the calm figure of Samir who hadn’t been struck by an attack since they started the battle, his eyes instead remained fixated on Kenos who looked like a soul reaper.“But if you’re only going to dodge and not attack then this battle might end sooner than you think” Kenos added before moving a finger, causing the black mist to compress themselves into arrow shapes before shooting toward Samir, who took a step back and disappeared, appearing some distance away but contrary to his expectations, the arrows which should have moved past him seemed to have a life of their own, as they followed him increasing their speed.“SWOOSH” Suddenly a black void appeared before Samir, which swallowed up the arrows that shot into them before disappearing.“You actually made me use my skill” Samir’s parrot said with a hint
“We have to go after him” I said to the others, I was determined to stop whatever foul plan that Katergaris might have.“That’s a great idea but first of all we need to cross to the other side first” Damien replied staring at the booby-trapped floor, the tiles on the floor looked normal but underneath there were traps.“That is also going to be a problem, this place is like a level 5 escape room, the complexity of the pattern is simply unbelievable, there are patterns within patterns” Logan said with a shake of his head, his eyes glowing as they scanned the whole room, this was one of his abilities, the ability to analyze and sense things unseen to the naked eyes, that was how he managed to deduce that Katergaris had been here, whenever he used that ability, he could see sometimes thin threads and colors that were normally invisible, like in the case of Katergaris, all he saw was a faint cloud of red mist where Katergaris had been standing.“You can see the booby traps?” Rash asked in
