Chapter 559 The Emperor's Tomb

?Villain Ch 559. The Emperor's Tomb

Meanwhile, in another place.

The Emperor's Tomb, an abyss veiled in perpetual darkness, bore the weight of eons within its confines. Jagged rocks jutted out like gnashing teeth, creating an ominous silhouette against the inky blackness. Unlike the grandiosity of pyramids, this dungeon manifested as a labyrinthine sprawl of stone paths, a cryptic maze etched in shadow.

The air hung heavy with the scent of ancient secrets. Intricate engravings adorned the walls, telling tales of forgotten epochs. The rocky terrain crunched underfoot. Four monolithic steles stood as silent sentinels, each harboring a crystal pulsating with arcane energy. The only gateway to the next level lay in shattering these crystalline guardians.

The tomb's defenders—humanoid monsters adorned in armor reflecting typical eastern cultural influences. These undead soldiers, remnants of a bygone era, stood sentinel with swords clasped tightly in their skeletal hands. The armor showcased intricate designs and details reminiscent of ancient Eastern civilizations.

Amidst the oppressive darkness, a sudden crescendo of loud grunting and clashing steel echoed through the narrow stone corridors. The unmistakable sounds of battle reverberated, punctuated by the explosive booms of spells being cast with unrestrained power. The cacophony, initially contained, now spilled its chaotic melody, inviting other monsters lurking in the depths of the tomb.

In one particularly constricted corridor, the scene unfolded like a nightmarish tableau. Undead Royal Soldiers pressed forward relentlessly. Their swords, gripped in skeletal hands, gleamed ominously as they advanced with an eerie determination. The air was thick with the metallic tang of impending combat, the limited space intensifying the tension.

Allen and his comrades stood poised. Spells erupted from their hands. Weapons clashed, echoing in the narrow confines as the group fought.

The limitations of the corridor transformed the encounter into a desperate dance. The relentless advance of the undead soldiers, coupled with the echoing tumult of battle, created an immersive atmosphere of suspense and danger.

Amidst the relentless onslaught of Undead Royal Soldiers, Bella couldn't help but grumble in frustration. "I hate undead," she muttered under her breath, mirroring the discontent in her voice. Determined to stem the advance of the undead foes, Bella's hand traced the intricate gestures of an earth spell.

The stone wall before her transformed into menacing spikes that jutted out with deadly precision. The spikes stabbed into the oncoming undead soldiers, a temporary barricade that momentarily halted their relentless march. However, the triumph was short-lived as the resilient soldiers broke free from the impaling spikes.

The ineffective barricade prompted Bella to voice her frustration, "Still doesn't mean that stops them."

Jane glanced at Bella and couldn't resist asking, "Why do you hate them?" Her inquiry was laced with curiosity. She used her Necromancy skill to turn the tide of battle. With a swift gesture, she summoned her wraiths. The wraiths, endowed with an otherworldly presence, launched an attack on the undead soldiers.

Bella responded tersely, "They're more annoying than regular monsters."

Allen's frustration found a voice amid the relentless clash against undead soldiers. Amidst the flurry of his actions, he muttered, "I hate this place more."

In a seamless motion, he hurled dozens of demonic lances at the encroaching monsters, each lance finding its mark with deadly precision.

Shea, momentarily pausing her Lullaby skill, turned to Allen. Curiosity etched in her expression, she asked, "Why?"

Allen, still engaged in the relentless assault, responded with a tinge of exasperation. "Because this place is narrow; it's the worst place for group hunting." His words carried a weight of disappointment, the realization dawning upon him that the intriguing dungeon they had entered was proving to be a challenging terrain for cooperative gameplay.

He hadn't expected the narrow pathways of the emperor's tomb to be so unforgiving. He had envisioned an immersive group hunt, an exploration of the tomb's secrets with his companions by his side. However, the cramped corridors and relentless onslaught of monsters shattered that vision. The disappointment lingered as he navigated the complexities of the battle.

Zoe, with her tentacles seamlessly weaving through the foes, cast a glance in Allen's direction. Her gaze met his as she voiced a realization, "Do we need to go back?" The tentacles continued their intricate dance through the narrow corridors. Each movement required precision to avoid colliding with the rocks that surrounded them.

She hated to admit it, but Allen was right. This type of dungeon was not suitable for her. She preferred spacious fighting places, not like this. Her tentacles, undeterred by the confined space, occasionally collided with the rocks, emphasizing the impracticality of the terrain for her unique abilities.

Vivian, with a hint of optimism in her voice, chimed in, "But we've already destroyed three crystals. Just need another crystal. Maybe we can at least get to the next level."

Allen, aware of the frustration permeating the group, urged them to persevere. "I know everyone hates this, but just hold on. At least we have to check the next level. Maybe that place will be better than this." His words carried a sense of determination.

Amid the frustration and challenges within the narrow confines of the emperor's tomb, Zoe, her tentacles still navigating the rocky corridors, let out a raucous sigh. "Okay," she exclaimed, her voice carrying a hint of annoyance.

Feeling the collective frustration, Bella, perhaps inspired by a burst of creativity or a touch of madness, threw her wild idea. "Hey, can't we use my earth wall as a barrier and push them along with it using Allen's Telekinesis Blast?" The proposal hung in the air, capturing the attention of the entire group.

In response to Bella's audacious suggestion, the group collectively turned their gaze toward her, a momentary silence settling over the chaotic scene. Bella, grappling with a mix of nerves and excitement, grinned nervously and added, "Just saying."

To the surprise of many, Allen chimed in with a willingness to give it a shot. "We can try," he suggested, acknowledging the need for unconventional tactics in the face of the dungeon's challenges.

Alice expressed her support. "Sounds like a good idea," she remarked. Bella's proposal seemed like an oasis in the middle of the challenging situation, offering a glimmer of hope and a break from the relentless clash with the undead soldiers.
