Chapter 258: Boss Room



While his real body was still healing, Adam's virtual body appeared in the dimly lit attic of the 50th floor.

After a short moment, his eyes fluttered open, and he groaned as if he could still feel the pain on his waist.

"W-what the hell..." Adam rubbed his waist, and sighed. "I was close to dying, huh..."

He didn't know how to react to that since he had already died once, but knowing that he was so close to dying again made him feel a sense of relief that it didn't actually happen.

"I'll find out where those bastards came from..." Adam coldly stated. "And you, Kang Saruza, if you helped them..."

With a crack of knuckles, he rose back to his feet, and stretched his limbs.

Since he couldn't go back to the real world, because he was on heavy medication, he planned to do some grinding.

After leaving the attic, he started heading back to the place where he stopped last night.

It was quite late already, but he definitely didn't feel like sleeping anymore. It was fine since his real body was sleeping in his stead.

However, since his mind wasn't really sleeping, he would definitely still feel sleepiness, but it was fine.

After returning to the game room of the strange creature, he walked through it, and found himself in the place with countless rotting corpses.

Once he ventured even deeper, he came across an enormous temple-looking area with rock pillars holding up the ceiling, leading him to believe he had stumbled upon an ancient burial ground.

It was so large and spacious that one would think that it belonged to the giants.

At that moment, lights lit up across the pillars and the ceiling.

As soon as that happened, a loud rumbling sound could be heard coming from deep within the tomb.

Through the ground, and from the coffins, thousands of creatures came back to life. Their eyes glowed blue, and they let out a deafening screech that echoed through the tomb.

Adam picked up his greatsword and rubbed his neck.

"Good grinding ground."n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

With a lunge, he started a long fight.

...

Back in the underground base, Alice let out a few yawns, but she didn't want to leave Adam's side.

It was nearing morning, and at that moment, she remembered something.

"Right, all those corpses!" She cried out. "My mother will freak out!"

[I've already taken care of them. I've also cleaned the blood, fixed the broken walls, and made sure everything is in order. Don't worry, she won't suspect a thing]

"Ah, thank god..." Alice touched her chest and breathed a sigh of relief.

[I might be a machine, but I am also curious. You two fought last night. Why?]

"Uh..." Alice lowered her head and pursed her lips. "He told me something I didn't like."

It was an extremely difficult fight that lasted the entire night.

However, he was happy because now he had reached level 21!

It was level of Archwarrior!

It already made him a powerhouse among mercenaries, as this could already make him a core member of Crimson Hounds.

However, his real strength was still a mystery; it might be way above Archwarrior.

It wasn't a long way to go anymore for level 25.

As he headed down the gigantic place, he soon came across an enormous pair of double doors

at the end of the temple.

Its color looked like rusty gold.

As soon as Adam saw the gigantic double doors, he halted his steps and took a deep breath.

'The boss room...'

He didn't think he was ready to go to that room, not yet.

Adam quickly gulped some of the flasks to recover some of his health.

After that, he took a seat by one of the fallen pillars and just waited as his health slowly

recovered.

A couple of hours later, he reached his maximum health once again, which was 1,500.

His mana reserves had recovered as well, meaning he was now back to his strongest state. However, he was still slightly tired from the entire night of fighting, but he was feeling extremely curious.

His gaze was lingering in the direction of the double doors.

"Fuck it!" Adam stood back up and stretched his arms. "Might as well check just how far I am

from the boss's strength!"

He made his decision.

He was going to try the boss fight, but he planned to retreat as soon as it became clear that he was still too weak to try.

As he walked towards the double doors, he pushed them open with brutish strength, and slowly stepped through the entrance.

The boss room's dimly lit interior was intimidating, filled with ominous shadows and eerie

sounds echoing off the walls.

Then, a blue flame flickered across the circular platform. The platform was seemingly

hovering in the air, and it was possible to fall off the platform to the dark depths below.

As soon as the blue flames appeared, a figure appeared in the center of the platform. He was just sitting there, a cane in hand, and draped cloak trailing behind him.
