Chapter 98 Death Temple (1/2)

Nix frowned and stepped away from the group he was in. He could dimly see a cavern ceiling high overhead. It reminded him of the Sea-World, although it looked a lot larger. There were cliffs visible in the far distance, torchlight lined what seemed to be long dark stairs to the top.

Emerald flames pushed out in all directions, with dozens of tendrils waving in the air. The undead were skellies, however, they seemed a bit stronger than the ones on the surface. The undead holding the torches moved away without attacking. A slight man in a dark robe watched them, there was no malice in his eyes, only interest. He had shoulder-length light brown hair that was drawn back in a ponytail. His features were as pale as ivory.

/Inferno: Nix: Be ready, but for now don't attack.

”Never leave?” Nix walked toward the pale man, both Tess and Morti followed along closely.

”Yes. You have wandered into a trap, you cannot gate out. Even if you die you will respawn on the platform.” He showed them no aggression, his deep voice bore no hint of cruelty.

/Inferno: Nix: Test out Deep Blue Min.

[Whisper: Nix to Shae] Could you attempt to summon me? We may have wandered into some sort of trap that stops us from leaving.

/Inferno: Mina: It cannot be used at this time.

/Inferno: Nix: Shit.

[Whisper: Shae to Nix] I'm not allowed to summon you. Bring me in Nix, I will help you.

[Whisper: Nix to Shae] Too risky, let's leave you out there for now.

/Inferno: Semmi: Permanent traps like this don't exist in Colonial, let's figure it out.

Nix stopped a few meters away from the man. ”I'm Nix, the guild leader of Inferno.”

The man smiled. ”I've never heard of Inferno, but then I've been here several years already. ”I am Tu-Khat. The rightful King of Wisteria.”

/Inferno: Semmi: King Tu-Khat is the current reigning monarch of Wisteria, as far as I know, he is still there.

Nix waited until Morti sat down before answering. ”That's curious, King Tu-Khat is alive and well in Wisteria. Or at least he was when we left.”

The self-proclaimed King shook his head. ”A Necromancer, with a doppelganger stone.”

Nix felt his medallion pulse with energy, he pulled it out to examine it.

[You are within Range of a Temple with proclaimed Champion]

/Inferno: Nix: That's curious, my Champions Medallion just notified me of a potential challenge. It didn't do that at the Air temple.

/Inferno: Semmi: That wasn't a real Temple, just a building they threw together.

/Inferno: Jun Li: That could be the key to leaving this instance.

/Inferno: Tess: Let Nix challenge, and while he's fighting we steal the temple.

/Inferno: Jun Li: Are all clerics so sneaky?

/Inferno: Tess: Don't say bad things about me Junie.

/Inferno: Nix: The Temple is likely to have some help.

/Inferno: Tess: We'll take Morti with us, and deal with them. He's super strong

/Inferno: Nix: And part of my strength. Which is why I need him to deal with the Champion.

/Inferno: Tess: Don't be so clingy Nix.

/Inferno: Ronnie: Don't worry Nix, we'll take good care of him.

/Inferno: Semmi: Let's talk with Tu-Khat first, we need more information.

Nix approached the self-proclaimed King. ”Any idea how long you have been here?'

Tu-Khat shrugged, ”it's hard to say. I was about to unite the three central continents under my banner.”
