Chapter 133: Ice

Wain was in the bar for quite some time; he didn't expect their meeting with Sven to be so long. However, Wain learned a lot about this world and how Purgatory zones, neutral zones, and special people like Sven work.

What's more, Wain has gained some pretty useful items to defeat some pretty tough enemies.

Click.

Wain opened the bar door and once again found himself in a dark space and a long tunnel, at the end of which another door was waiting for him.

'Hmmm, I can use Furious Lion Amulet to fight against one strong enemy and Edge Blast to destroy hundreds of targets at a time. I need to get busy accumulating souls, finding a map, improving my skills... ah, I have too much work to do.' Thought Wain and opened the door at the end of the passage.

Once again, he found himself in a spatial rift where there was a wooden door leading to a bar and an inky door with many eyes.

Wain nodded slightly and headed for the ink door. He entered the passageway without any trouble.

"Hmm, the bone gate still hasn't appeared, is the Sorcerer's Soul hidden in the Void and not in the Purgatory area? That's not a bad thing though, I've never been in the Void before. It should be interesting." Mumbled Wain pacing toward the door at the end of the tunnel.

The closer he got, the lower the temperature got around him. Wain immediately realized that it was the ice-covered door at the end of the tunnel. A cold and terrifying aura emanated from it. Wain felt a massive pressure exerted on him, and goosebumps ran down his body involuntarily.

Wain smiled and said, "Great, the feeling of anticipation is one of the best. Honestly, I'm tired of sitting at the bar at Sven's. I need to stretch out."

Click.

Wain opened the icy door and stepped forward. As soon as he was in another space, he was immediately confronted with a natural phenomenon such as a blizzard.

Then Wain saw a message in front of him.

[You have entered the Void - Ice Caves]

Wain's Seal of Darkness flashed brightly, and he felt the energy of the World of Darkness heading toward him.

'This is rather unusual, but now I know for sure that I am not in the Purgatory zone. Strange, I thought that I wouldn't see any message when I entered Void as in the Purgatory zone.' Thought Wain and looked around.

The icy wind was contemplating his face, and massive flakes of snow had already managed to fall on his cloak.

'Yeah, it was obviously warmer in the bar.'

Even though his stats were high, it was still pretty cold. This meant that even the blizzard in this area was different from what ordinary people were used to.

If a person with an unactivated Soul Altar were in Wain's place, he would have already been frozen and turned into an ice statue.

Despite the icy torrents that were raining down on Wain, he was in a cave, quite large and spacious, as well as multi-leveled.

Wain approached the slope and looked down. He saw dozens of different passages, tunnels, and spontaneous ice bridges in the form of massive pieces of cylindrical ice. It was a very deep funnel.

"Yeah, it looks like I'm going to be wandering around here forever. Too bad the compass can't show me where the Sorcerer's Soul is, but I have my own means." Wain muttered and concentrated.

The Seal of Darkness glowed brightly, and Wain could see where the energy fluctuations were coming from.

Wain nodded and, looking down, muttered, "It was obvious, though, that I'd have to go down."

Whooosh.

Wain waved his hand, and a plasma sword appeared beside him. He wanted to descend to the bottom of the funnel using his usual method. However, he failed when he tried to plunge the plasma sword into the ice.

Wain frowned, he tried a few more times, but despite his great effort, he could not plunge the sword into the walls of the funnel.

"Damn... Am I really going to have to jump over these bridges and gradually go down?" Wain muttered.

After thinking for a while and realizing he had no other options, Wain shrugged and jumped down.

The nearest bridge was twenty meters deep. That would be a deadly height for a normal person in most cases. But, for Wain, it wasn't a problem. However, he still did a somersault after the fall to reduce the shock wave.

He wasn't sure that even for him jumping from such a height would be absolutely harmless, so he decided to eliminate all risks.

To Wain's left and right were tunnels that could be accessed by walking across the ice bridge. Wain could have continued down the tunnels by jumping over the bridges, but he decided to head for the tunnels.

This was the first time Wain had been in Void, and he wanted to explore the area. He thought there must be something interesting and unusual in the Void.

For the first few minutes, nothing unusual happened. Wain walked quietly through the tunnel and gradually made his way down. All around him, he saw nothing but ice and icicles.

But, after a while, Wain encountered the first monsters of the area. They were massive lizards with icy protective plates on their bodies.

They did not notice Wain, for they were sleeping. The temperature here was acceptable to them. They were born here and lived in this Void for many years.

Wain waved his hand, and the plasma sword flew toward the lizards. The monsters continued to sleep, unaware of the impending danger.

However, when the plasma sword almost reached one of the lizards, the monster suddenly opened its eyes and swiftly repulsed the attack with its tongue. The plasma sword flew aside like a small needle, falling at Wain's feet.

'Unexpectedly... Perhaps I should get myself a real weapon instead of using the Plasma Destruction Sword all the time.' Wain pondered.

He had also thought before about not relying too much on the Plasma Destruction Sword, but Wain couldn't give up using the skill so easily all the time. He also wasn't sure that fighting with two swords would be effective.

If Wain were to have his own weapon to use during combat, he would have to control the plasma sword at the same time. Wain could fight this way, but he did not like this fighting style for several reasons.

First, he didn't want to spread his power over multiple objects. He would have to watch his movements, his enemies' attacks while mentally controlling the plasma sword.

Secondly, by allocating his attention to the plasma sword, he would lower his concentration level. In that case, he would never reach the level where he fights with one weapon.

Wain preferred it when all his power was concentrated at one point to achieve one goal. That's why one-on-one combat was his favorite option.

He had one enemy, one target, one battlefield in those moments.

'I'll have to look closely at my options for developing the Plasma Destruction Sword when I upgrade the Chronicle of this skill. Perhaps I can find a solution to my problem.' Thought Wain, picked up his sword from the floor and prepared for battle.

His opponents were three massive lizards, each quite strong.

Whooosh.

One of the ice lizards pounced on Wain and got to him in a second. Wain didn't wait for a good moment and decided to attack immediately while the defenseless opponent was.

Wain swung his sword at lightning speed and brought it down on the lizard's neck. Excluding the belly, it was the most unprotected place of lizards.

Crackle.

However, when the weapon's blade reached the ice plates, there were many cracks along with the sword, while the lizard's protective plate was perfectly intact. Wain was shocked. He didn't expect the three lizards to be such serious opponents.

Swift.

The lizard turned sharply and struck Wain with its razor-sharp tail. Wain reacted quickly and blocked this attack with his sword in front of him. But his weapon was shattered into small pieces. 

Wain was shocked, he didn't expect his weapon to be destroyed so easily, but he didn't have time to think.

Whooosh.

The two long tongues of the remaining lizards came down on him like whips. Wain did not have time to react and received two powerful blows to the stomach from the tongues. They were strong enough to knock Wain back several meters.

Wain reacted quickly and regrouped. As he flew, he bounced off the ground with one hand, got to his feet, and adopted a fighting stance.

'Hmm, perhaps I am acting too stupid. At the moment, I only have one First Chronicle skill, and it's passive. I didn't think there would be such dangerous monsters in this place, but it looks like every one of these First Chronicle lizards.'

He looked at the lizards coming his way and thought, 'The only skill that can do them serious damage is Oblivion Thunder, but it doesn't make sense to use such a powerful skill on three lizards.'

Wain shook his head and smirked. Once again, he forgot that he had something else besides skills and equipment.

'Huh, I'm a First Chronicle creature, and any my fist punch is more powerful than a plasma sword or Kinetic Shot's shot. Since I have to fight in a narrow, ice-covered cave, hand-to-hand combat is the best option.' Thought Wain and electric shocks appeared at his feet.

He turned into blue lightning and reached the nearest lizard in a second. Wain launched a lightning strike, but the lizard turned sharply and dodged the blow to his surprise.. The next moment, three deadly tongues headed in his direction.
