Chapter 223: Exploring the Dimensional Realm (5) - Almost Dead

The floor Arthur was on was pure darkness. Even with his improved eyesight, it was hard to see it properly, but there was one thing Arthur could see without problems; red eyes.

Red eyes stared at him from all directions. These eyes were like a hunter, and he was like the prey. A feeling of discomfort grew within, and Arthur did not want to stay in such a place for much longer.

“What type of creatures are these?”

Whatever it was, it did nothing but to stare. Although the staring made him feel bad, it was better than having countless beasts jumping on him trying to get a piece of his flesh.

After making sure those things would not attack him, Arthur moved, making his way throughout the dark building.

The only thing inside that place was some random pillars from time to time, and that’s it. He could not tell if he was going in the right direction or not.

Arthur could not understand how that place was messing with his vision, which was supposed to see in the dark, yet it was not working as intended.

It was not the first thing the dimensional realm messed up, as the mana regeneration was also facing problems. Arthur asked George about it, and he said that whoever created this realm could set its own rules, and that is why some things were strange and mysterious.

He kept ready to defend himself in case anything tried to attack him, and it happened. The red eyes that were staring at him finally made their move, with some rushing towards him.

When it got closer, Arthur saw what those things were; cadavers. These things were like mummies with red-eyes and long claws.

The face of those things were disturbing. It reminded Arthur of monsters from horror movies.

“Get off me!”

Arthur was not concerned about sparing his mana, but against those things, he did not need it either. He had an extraordinary physique, and when that ugly mummy got closer to him, he threw a punch right into its face, sending it flying away.

He saw through the level above the head of that mummy that it was not a powerful enemy, having a low level of 25, which was nothing to him.

For a moment, Arthur thought he would easily pass through that floor, but things were not as easy as he thought.

The mummy that was sent flying and was presumably dead returned to life. Not only that, but the number of red-eyes staring at him through the darkness kept increasing into the point of thousands.

“This concerns, Arthur. You are strong, but against these many monsters, things will get troublesome.”

“Really, George? If you hadn’t said I would not realize it.”

Arthur mocked him and tried to think of a way out. Fighting against those things would not work, as it seemed they would keep coming back to live to haunt him.

“Maybe I should just run and hope for the best?”

It was the only thing he could think of, and that was what he did. Using all the strength he had on his body, Arthur ran as fast as he could, achieving unprecedented speed, dodging from most of the mummies.

Not even a single one of those mummies hit him, and everything seemed to go in the right direction. Arthur was not finding the right direction, but at least the mummy threat was not a concerning aspect anymore.

The moment he sighed in relief, a deafening sound echoed through the entire floor, and all the mummies that were chasing Arthur stopped and fled, scared of whatever screamed a few moments earlier.

Arthur felt the same way. When he turned around, a strange beast was staring at him. It was so disgusting that he had the urge to throw up.

It was a ball made of flesh with a mouth in it. A countless number of human arms were attached to the ball of flesh, moving non-stop.

The strangest part was that it seemed some human faces were on the ball of flesh as well, as if it was a fusion of countless dead bodies screaming from time to time.

“What the fuck is this?”

There were only interrogation marks above the head of that creature, which meant it was something strong, and the best decision was to not fight against it, but to run.

Arthur continued to run toward the same direction he was previously been going, not stopping for a single second to look back.

He was not only using the speed of his body, but his teleport as well, trying his best to increase the distance between him and that strange creature.

But it did not work out for him. The beast was getting closer and closer, as if it was teleporting as well, just like him.

Then, one arm attached to that ball of flesh extended in size, hitting Arthur on the shoulder, breaking it completely.

“Aggggr!”

Arthur endured the pain and kept using everything he got to leave that floor and flee from that creature.

The only problem was that he was not finding the way out, and the beast send yet another attack, now breaking most of his ribs.

He was not in the best shape of his life, and after some other attacks from that creature, Arthur was on the verge of passing out.

Blood dripped from his wounds, and he could not move his arms properly after the beast broke them, making it hard for him to cast his teleport spell.

Hopeless, Arthur used all the willpower he had within and continued forward. Then he saw the light at the end of the tunnel.

It was a way out, a door. Arthur gathered all the strength he had left and dashed forward, trying to reaching the way out before the creature killed him.

An arm from the ball of flesh went forward, trying to end Arthur’s life, but when the arm was almost reaching his head, even grabbing some of his hair, Arthur passed through the door and left the tower to safety.
