[VRMMO] Dead One

[You have slain: Dead Land Dragon.]

[You have slain: Bone Gargoyle.]

[You have slain: Mass Of Sorrow.]

"Okay! The hell is going on?!" – asked annoyed Wretch.

"The skies are straight up filled to the brim with monsters!"

"More likely answer is that we are sitting ducks in the air."

"Hey, can't you just summon your own monsters? Or more exactly, why are you holding back with summons?" – asked Wretch.

"Because this may provoke even more monsters to spot us and charge straight at us." – replied ClownFrog.

"So, yea….. Ground?"

"Ground. I will summon my monsters." – said Shri before moments later ClownFrog landed on the ground and the group changed from flying to ridding Shri monsters.

"…"

"So….. About the- "

"Don't talk about this here. We are not alone." – said ClownFrog, stopping Wretch before he could even ask a question.

"I know you are curios and everything, but it is better if other players don't hear about this."

"Oh….. Then the du- "

"Again. No." – replied ClownFrog instantly before Wretch could ask another question.

"Besides, by the looks of things we won't have any time talking anyway, since we have more monsters coming our way." – said ClownFrog as the army of the heavily armored undeads were standing in the group's way.

[Fallen Of Ioikan kingdom – Knight]

[Corrupted Corpse Eating Spirit]

"?"

"Wait, are those spirits? But I thought you can't turn them into undeads." – said confused LM.

"I don't know what they are, just get rid off them already." – said ClownFrog before then [Earth Rampage], unleashing countless stalagmites that impaled the undead elves alongside the corrupted spirits.

But even that didn't stopped the undeads.

"Welp, normally we didn't got a lot of time to shine, since we flew most of the time. So how about you let us?" – asked Rampage as she got off her monster alongside Wretch.

"Agree." – said the death knight before moments later the duo of berserkers rushed in.

Undead elves alongside their corrupted spirits combined their powers and unleashed barrages of AOE spells that swallowed up the entire area….. But the duo of berserks didn't cared one bit as they just ran through explosions and then reached the undeads, before then staring to unleashing their own skills, firing blasts of blood that pierced the undeads or slashes of demonic energy that knocked away the creatures.

"!?"

"The fuck?" – said Wretch as he saw standing right back up after receiving a direct hit, but exactly moment later they were all blown up by ClownFrog attack.

"This place is filled with strong high level monster, so it is obvious that not all of them would end up getting one shoted by your attacks!" – said ClownFrog before unleashing [Dead Lance Graden], unleashing another wave of impaling attack that hit several undeads at the same time…. But once again, didn't stopping them as some even already started breaking the spears that impaled them.

"Huh…. You know? This maybe more interesting than I've thought." – said ClownFrog before then trying to summon his monsters.

"Hey! Don't summon! Didn't you said you didn't wanted to provoke more monsters?!" – said LM.

"!"

"Oh, right…. Kind of forgotten about instantly." – said ClownFrog before then dodging the skeleton knight wind sword attack and then instantly counter attacking with [Water Jet Blade], cutting the entire body of undead in half.

"Anyway, don't hold back! Remember we are dealing with time here."

"You can use up some of your stronger skills if it means instant win."

"Well, if you say so!" – replied LM before then unleashing [Rapid Fire – Bow], [Enchantment: Dragon Bow] and [Hell Bowman] to unleashed a barrages or magic arrows that pierced the undeads bodies.

Other party members also went on the total rampage, unleashing their skills left and right, devastating the huge group of undead elves.

[Level up.]

[Level 675]

"!"

"Huh…. These guys do give quiet good amount of EXP by the looks of things?" – said ClownFrog.

"Yea, I've already level up once from hunting them…. No wonder people call it one of the best hunting spots in the game." – said LM.

"Not only that, but the loot from these guys are all at minimal rare rarity. There are also some epic rarity items mixed in."

"Honestly, even if we are not having any money problem right now, we could still probably hunt here from time to time."

"Agree…. But it is shitty that is located so far away from our empire." – said Wretch.

"Anyway, how far until we get to our destination?"

"Well, we only just entered the 'corpse city' ring." – said Shri.

"Even if this map is shitty, it is pointing towards two giant land marks."

"The 'corpse castle' and 'corpse sea', why the hell few of the places here all have corpse in their name? Was the guy naming these things lazy or something? Anyway-"

"The swamp we are going for is at the swamp and the marked area is quiet big…"

"But can we trust this map? I mean, we already know it only half correct." – said LM.

"Well, do we have any other bloody choice?" – asked Shri.

"It is not like we can just….. Wait, why don't we just mug other people?"

"I mean, we already stand out a lot, since we are way too famous…. So honestly, robbery wouldn't make us stand out even more."

"Nah. Don't do it. The next thing we need is to have some people realizing that we are looking for something." – said ClownFrog.

"Agree. They may find it odd if we would just go and ask them for their map." – said LM.

"If we were to kill players on top of that, it would just only make things far more suspicious."

"It is for the best if we try and get away from any players."

"Then again."

"Exterminating rats tailing us is acceptable, right?"

"Yeb." – said ClownFrog before in the next moment LM turned around and fired a magic arrow, hitting a inviable player right in the chest before then blowing up.

"?!"

"W-what?!" – said the player in ninja gear before then spotting Shri cobra coming his way and then just ripping off the ninja player head off.

"They probably won't be the last one to do that…. I wouldn't be surprised if the word about us is already spreading." – said LM.

"Then we have even more reason to hurry." – said ClownFrog.

"We need to get there before anybody sees us jumping into that thing."

The group continued their exploration through the 'corpse city' ring of the Dead Land, encountering both countless armies of undeads as well as corrupted beings.

The traversal of this ring took quiet long amount of time for the group, since even if they are not provoking the entire army of flying monsters, they are still forced to fight large groups of high level monsters, stopping the Purple Hyena in their tracks multiple times and this would only get worse as they got deeper and deeper into the final ring territory.

And then finally after hours, the group managed to make their way into the 'corpse sea'.

[You are inflicted with {Curse} status.]

[You are inflicted with {Poison} status.]

"!"

"Oh wow. You weren't kidding. I've got both cursed and poisoned from here." – said Wretch as he backed away and quickly cleansed off the debuffs with his potion.

"Anyway, the tomb is right underneath this thing….. But…. Em…. Are we going to search this entire god damned thing?!" – asked Wretch as he pointed out at the ginormous lake of rotten murky liquid.

"Yea… Swimming through the whole thing may take a while…." – said Shri.

"Is there anything like marker or anything?"

"Well, yea." – said ClownFrog.

"According to that guy, the temple is located in the middle of this thing."

"Meaning that we will just fly above this thing and deep dive right in the middle." – said ClownFrog as he took on his dragon form.

"Anyway, get on." - said ClownFrog before moments later the group climbed on his back and then took off into the skies, flying above the ginormous lake.

"…"

"…"

"I think here will do." – said ClownFrog before then deploying [Arcane Bubble] and [Aero Sphere], forming two layer barriers before then diving straight into the murky lake.

"!"

"Damn! The entire thing is dark like hell! How the hell are we supposed to find this thing?" – asked Shri.

"Dark vision isn't working either." – said Rampage.

"Same here. I'm trying to use magic detection skills, but I'm not finding anything. This entire thing is blocking off the detection completely." – said ClownFrog who had his detection skill go haywire.

"Maybe this thing is at the very bottom?" – said ClownFrog as the group continue diving deeper into the lake as the barriers around them started slowly collapsing, forcing ClownFrog to deploy [Aqua Bubble].

"So…. How many barriers you have left?" – asked worried LM.

"A lot. But not many that can be used while moving around." – replied ClownFrog.

(Anyway, how deep is this thing? I know that we are moving bit slower because of this weird water, but we had already been going for some time now.)

(My barriers are also taking a lot of damage from the nonstop contact with this thing.)

"Hey, can't you use some buffs or something?" – asked Rampage.

"I'm already using some if you didn't realized." – replied ClownFrog.

"Honestly, I shouldn't- "

"!?"

"H-hey!? What is going on?!" – asked LB as the water around the group started acting weird.

"Something is sucking me in!" – replied ClownFrog.

"!?"

"Wait, what the hell do you mean sucking you in?!" – asked panicking LB.

"!"

"WAIT! THIS MAYBE A BLOODY ENTRANCE! GO IN!" – shouted Shri as she realized that the weird change may hint towards the entrance.

"You better be right!" – said ClownFrog that instantly let himself be taken away by the whirlwind before moments later a purple light completely enveloped the group.

"!?"

"Huh… Look at that… You were right." – said ClownFrog as the entire scenery around the group changed from the complete darkness to a ruins.

"I guess it was something like a teleport?" – said Shri as she and the others got off the ClownFrog back.

"Hm? What is that?" – said Wretch as he noticed a giant magic circle on the ground behind the group.

"!"

"DON'T!" – shouted LM.

"This maybe a teleportation circle that takes you outside!"

"But where exactly, that we don't know."

"True. Better don't touch that." – said ClownFrog.

"Anyway, keep your guard up and don't hold back at all."

"I doubt the monsters here will be easy opponents to be deal with and I don't want to waste too much time, since who knows if the saboteurs may show up or not."

"I rather don't have more annoying problems popping up now of all the times."
