Chapter 895 Traps & Dice



[Ogre has been slain! A boosted 20,000 souls has been added to the Golden Protocol! 423,754/1,000,000]

Connie slammed her hand onto the chair as she watched her pet Ogre, George, die. She bared her teeth. "That's fine! Ha, I didn't think anyone could deal with George so easily, but that's just one thing you have to get through before you even try to find me!" Connie laughed into the magical mic. Her hands furiously typed away. "Let's see if you can get through this!"

Connie slammed her hand onto the keyboard and let out a frustrated sigh. She leaned into the chair that was far too large for her tiny body. She muted herself and propped her head and watched as Lee Seng yelled something to the Biohuman before running through the rubble.

"Are you sure you don't want me to deal with him myself, Lady Connie?" A young pre-teen boy asked. He stood off to the side, throwing a pair of dice into the air and catching them. Connie ignored him and began to type away again.

"Check on how the rest of these rats are doing." Connie ordered. "We need to keep them busy. Tire them out and feast on their souls as quickly as possible! We don't have much time before Queen calls for me."

"Yes, my lady." The teen boy caught his dice and gave a small bow before turning to leave the room. 

"I'll make sure I get you to the Queen. One way or the other!" Connie slammed her hand against the table as she watched Lee Seng run through the halls.

Lee Seng ran through the halls, glancing left and right as his head throbbed. The energy had condensed so much in this area and we wondered if it was Connie's doing. 

'I wouldn't doubt something's messing with my head.' Lee Seng rubbed his head. He began to round the corner when a loud blast of energy moved past him. Lee Seng moved back, sucking in a breath before peeking out, again. Lee Seng noticed four beams at the end of the hall. Lee Seng watched them charge and fire another shot. He quickly pulled back to safety, feeling the energy zoom past him and slam against the wall at the other end.

Lee Seng sprinted down the hallway towards the charging beams. He watched them swell into large lights. He looked left, noticing a hallway. He picked up speed, barely making it as the beams zapped past him. Lee Seng sucked in a breath and took a look around. There was a door to his left. 

Lee Seng ripped the door open. The room lit up as he took a step into the room. It was a large room full of cubicles. 

"Warning! Dark Matter Energy has gathered in this room! Seek shelter before its too late!" The automated voice spoke. The cubicles shook as papers, pens, and pencils whipped around the room. Four large Dark Matter orbs formed, breaking. The roars of lion headed monsters appeared. Their tails were of five-headed snakes and their bodies were tough like Minotaurs.

"Identify creature." Lee Seng whispered. 

[It seems like this resembles a chimera, but it's bi-pedal.]

"Figured as much." Lee Seng commented.

[You're the one who asked for an identification. That's all I got for you.]

"Thanks." Lee Seng summoned his Sun blade. The chimeras all looked at him, waiting for someone to make the first move. Lee Seng swung the blade and turned it horizontal near his face. He put two fingers up to the blade and traced the blade with his fingers. "Let's see how strong you guys are."

Lee Seng blinked forward, swinging the blade straight at the nearest Chimera. The Chimera shrieked in pain as it swung at Lee Seng, sending him backwards. The three other Chimeras rushed at him, lifting their five-headed snake tails over the shoulders and firing of venomous lasers at Lee Seng.

Lee Seng lifted his hand up, absorbing the venom. He landed on his feet and lifted his arm up, producing a golden shield as the Chimeras slammed against the shields. He gritted his teeth, cursing as he slashed. A fiery light billowed out of his blade, temporarily blinding the Chimeras. 

"Gravitum: Piercing Flash and Dash!" Lee Seng dashed all across the room, slashing the chimeras. Two chimeras roared, disrupting Lee Seng's flow as another blast of venomous lasers flew straight for Lee Seng. Lee Seng reached up for it, conjuring a black hole as the last chimera jumped into the air and slashed Lee Seng's arm. 

Lee Seng gritted his teeth as the venom flew into the black hole. He turned it towards the Chimera, watching the Chimera's hand suck in. Lee Seng closed the black hole, watching blood spill as the chimera screamed in pain. 

"Down!" Lee Seng shouted. Gravity pushed down onto the chimeras, sending them straight into the ground. The entire room groaned under Lee Seng's immense power. The cosmos wrapped around him, leaving Lee Seng in the air as his eyes sparkled with celestial flames. 

"Tch!" Connie's voice came into the room. "You think this is easy? Why don't I crank it up a notch?" The chimeras screamed as they exploded in Dark Matter. The Dark Matter began to link together. Celestial fire escaped Lee Seng's lips, climbing up his face as his form shifted.

"Don't you know who I am?" Lee Seng asked Connie. He raised his hand up to the Dark Matter. "I'm a gluttonous eater." Wisps exploded out of Lee Seng's hands and surrounded the ball of Dark Matter. They devoured every inch of the Dark Matter, leaving Connie with nothing.

"Argh! You're pissing me off!" Connie slammed a button. Bullets rained from the air, collecting along the ceiling as Lee Seng pulled the wisps back to him. 

"I guess you wouldn't know since I haven't really shown you my potential…" Lee Seng glanced up at the strange wisps of energy. He flew at the energy and connected with it.  "I know where you are now." The entire room exploded as Lee Seng blasted upwards.

"Crap! He's coming!" Connie screamed. She threw the keyboard against the wall and watched as red signs appeared. "I know he's coming, dammit! Ahhh! Why do I have to do everything myself?!? Tyler, deal with him!" 

A pair of dice flew into the air as the pre-teen boy grabbed them. "As you wish, my lady." Tyler bowed and disappeared. 

Lee Seng blasted through twelve floors before a pair of dice flew at him. They lit up, exploding in Lee Seng's face, sending him flying through the glass window. 

"Hmmm," Tyler snatched the dice in the air and appeared in the smoke. He waved his hand, pushing the cloud of smoke out. "I didn't think I'd get to fight a famous person." Lee Seng flew into the building, reaching for Tyler. Tyler threw a dice up, watching Lee Seng grab it, absorbing the energy within the dice. 

Lee Seng grabbed Tyler's throat and pushed him through four walls before slamming him against the glass window. Eight tails billowed outwards in a frenzy as Lee Seng's grip squeezed Tyler's neck. 

Crunch!

Tyler's neck snapped, instantly exploding in ice. Lee Seng's eyes widened as the ice absorbed him. Two dice flew up as Tyler pulled the veil away. 

"I thought that would happen…" Tyler grabbed the dice and rolled them in his palm. "Didn't think you were as hot headed as they seem, Mister. I guess the Lady was worried about nothing." A small ball of black space and stars grew in the ice. Tyler's eyes narrowed as he watched the energy explode. Every window exploded, raining glass and celestial fire. 

"You're just a kid, too." Lee Seng turned. "The effects the Deimon juicer has on people is crazy… A kid with no abilities is able to grow this powerful?" 

"No abilities?" Tyler cleared the smoke away. "Hmph, yeah right. The possibilities are endless with this one. I just managed to roll it in my favor." He threw the dice into the air and caught them between his fingers. He looked straight at Lee Seng without an ounce of fear. "Luck's on my side, so you won't win this fight so easily."

"This is why you should stick to learning, kid." Lee Seng pointed Sun blade at Tyler. "If luck was truly on your side, you would've said you would win that fight without the 'so easily.' There's a hint of doubt in you."

"Is not." Tyler interjected. He threw the dice, watching the dice turn into skeletons. "Hmph, low roll. No matter, I can always roll again." Two more dice appeared in Tyler's hand as the skeletons rushed for Lee Seng. Lee Seng slashed once and watched the skeletons turn to dust. "Roll!" Tyler threw the dice out as Lee Seng sprinted forward. "We got… Ice bombs!" 

The dice exploded in ice, fracturing the space around them and releasing ice shards everywhere. Lee Seng flew out of the building, shards of ice embedded in him as his aura shimmered brightly.

"Roll some dice and I'm the one who suffers… Fun." Lee Seng sighed.
