Chapter 85: Abyssal Kingdom, Serum Complete
"It seems that we are trapped," Yueha said, her eyes narrowed and somber.
A heavy air loomed over everyone as the group found themselves trapped inside a huge fenced garden with seven dark whirlpools on the ground that oozed out a palpitating aura.
--
The Underwater Abyssal Kingdom was a city-turned-dungeon area, deep below the ocean of this secret realm.
At first, the group entered the ruined city after crossing the barrier and killed monsters there. They found some resources as well, but none that were important to them.
Since the number of monsters was high, the group took ten minutes to route everything up in the ruined city. After recovering their energies, they moved into the huge castle at the end.
The castle was truly huge, with merely its walls spanning 3 kilometers wide. It was 1 kilometer tall in height as well, its grandness visible at a single glance.
Upon entering the castle, they first arrived at a common hall where ten Dark Knights of Exceed-rank stood like statues, surrounding a real giant statue that was headless and cracked. The Dark Knights attacked the group, but everyone fought well and swiftly defeated them.
From the already broken and headless statue, the group found a box sealed by talismans and sealing magic.
Everyone tried to break the seal, but no one succeeded. As such, Yueha put it in her storage ring and the group recovered with meditation before continuing.NewW novels updates at novelhall.com
During the next three hours, the group explores many areas, rooms, and halls of the castle, defeating monsters and gathering useful resources. They found an abundance of high-tiered plants, fruits, flowers, and such resources.
However, none of them knew alchemy so they couldn't utilize their usefulness right away in creating pills and potions with useful buffs.
After five hours, they explored most of the castle and finally went past the initial area of the castle, exiting from the back part and arriving at a huge fenced garden.
Yueha nodded, 'Hue will focus on dealing killing blows while I will also support by slowing down all of them using my Profound Ice techniques.'
'Let's kill all of them without any casualty. I'll be a reactive guard to Fang and Dax,' Riki said as he unsheathed his both katanas. 'Even if I am weaker, I can make it up with my sword skills to at least weaken and redirect their attacks on our support.'
'Let's do it,' Mei nodded as she vanished while the barrier formation also broke after withstanding attacks for three seconds.
...
"Finally!!"
Aleron shouted as he looked at the Xorg before him with a mushroom head and creamy skin with black spots.
"She really transformed well and alive!" Aleron grinned.
[Gachapi: I finished the scan, Master. It's good. Finally, you did it. She is alive, her soul is stable, and the transformation is powerful with her stats above 100k]
"Haha, you were also helpful, Gachapi. Thanks."
[Gachapi: Not much, master. You did most of the work. But not anymore. Leave it to me to mass-produce this serum. Just give me 1 billion Magilore for now.]
Aleron was surprised, "You can make this serum now?"
[Gachapi: I am bonded with your soul, after all. Even though I can't act in the real world, I can still act inside your source space. I can use the knowledge you created to produce this serum and mass produce it so you can take some rest.]
Aleron broadly smiled, "Alright, then I leave it to you. What time is it?"
[Gachapi: We spent over five hours. It's almost 6 in the morning outside.]
The four thousand people below him were terrified and tired both. Many of them had fallen asleep like the other twenty-six thousand people littered on the ground on the other side. Not to mention the pile of a few hundred grotesque dead bodies at the corner of this ground. They all died, but not their souls. Their souls were now getting punished in his Hell. "Damn, it's almost six in the morning? No point in sleeping then," Aleron laughed. "I am going outside after an hour since I told Rias about it. We gonna have breakfast and fun, but before that, I'll go check up on Yueha and others. I wonder how they are faring in the Abyssal Kingdom."
