[VRMMO] Chaos Doctor

Chapter 559: Chapter 559 – The search for more divinities – Part 2.

<<Things are getting more and more complicated as well as problematic.>>

<<The enemy is here already, searching for the temple.>>

<<Honestly, there was no way I would just "sneak" around them and find the temple on my own, since they may as well find it soon after, resulting in the clash.>>

<<So it is for the better – No.>>

<<It was the only good option to eradicate any players that I’ve find and have them get death penalty.>>

<<That was the only path I could take.... But still.>>

<<Can’t really say I’m thrilled.>>

<<Especially considering THIS location.>>

<<My monsters will die because of the {poisoned}, {burned} and {melting} status.>>

<<Even undeads who have naturally high resistance to the {poison} status will get fucked by it.>>

<<At best I can do is to send my monsters around do a suicidal search... But right now it is too risky.>>

<<Still, I can tell one thing.>>

<<I was here first before them.>>

<<It is not like we didn’t encounter each other before, no.>>

<<They seem to just arrived here.>>

<<That means I have somewhat advantage in terms search progress.>>

<<But at the same time, the enemies had numbers.>>

<<It wasn’t just 4 people searching around... No.>>

<<There were 4 groups, each ranging between 4 to 6 members.>>

<<Maybe even more than I know of as they were using stealth to move around.>>

<<Or maybe there were some that I didn’t noticed yet... Either way, I’ve murdered them.>>

<<I’ve ripped them apart, destroyed them.>>

<<Some tried to run. Some tried to scream.>>

<<But I’ve hunted them all down, leaving nobody standing.>>

<<Obviously this will cause even bigger mess, but there was no other way around it.>>

<<Honestly, at this point I started spawning summon expendable monster types in order to speed up the search a bit.>>

<<It was a pure desperation.>>

<<I will not deny it.>>

<<The status effects were straight up genociding my monsters and just summoning my monster like that AGAIN after my last search will obviously make things far more complicated, since it is "HEHE! I’M HERE!" fucking stupid kind of move.>>

<<Hell! I’ve made this equipment this way so the people wouldn’t recognize me either! But now I’m fucking forced to announce myself being here!>>

<<The situation is just that FUCKING NICE!>>

<<...>>

<<And I swear to the motherfucking god.>>

<<If it turns out that the temple isn’t here and I just revealed myself like an idiot for no good reason....>>

<<...>>

<<Then again, there is a good chance that the temple is hidden here.>>

<<Honestly speaking, this location was one of the most suspected targets I’ve had.>>

<<It is a perfect place to hide something and those who would search this place would just perish because of the extremely hostile environment.>>

<<The territory isn’t flat either, there are a lot of hills even small mountains here and there.>>

<<But that purple lava is problematic.>>

<<...Huh.>>

<<Maybe... Maybe I should turn this place into factory?>>

<<Could I possible weaponize this lava?>>

<<I mean, some of the dwarven equipment DOES run on lava... But it needs to be a special lava... But then again, maybe could use it?>>

<<Like make some kind of mix?>>

<<Then again, I could just use this thing as ammunition, I could maybe make a bombs that splatter this thing.... I’m getting side tracked.>>

<<But still, I should check this place out afterwords to see what I can with the nasty stuff that can be found here.>>

<<Anyway, I continued my search the temple... But honestly it wasn’t easy.>>

<<I’ve looked for hours now, and I couldn’t find any traces, leads or clues... Just nothing.>>

<<Honestly speaking, it was... Well, it was problematic to say the least.>>

<<It could take me days to finish searching this entire place... But I don’t know if I have that much time.>>

<<What if the enemy may end up trying to avoid, may result in them accidently finding the temple.>>

<<Honestly... That scenario would be annoying.>>

<<But then again, none of the guys I’ve had slaughtered were not partially strong, they were definitely no rankers either.>>

<<Still, they had numbers and I saw them having special equipment made to somewhat handle this hostile environment.>>

<<They can search here without too much trouble... Which means they can search this place for much longer before backing off to recover.>>

<<And this is a problem.>>

<<...Not only that, but do they have somebody strong enough to maybe slow me down for a bit?>>

<<*Sigh*>>

<<Yeb. Things are keep getting more annoying.>>

<<...Maybe I should do it other way around.>>

<<The volcano.>>

<<This is the most dangerous location in this whole territory.>>

<<Just getting near it will apply heavy {burn} and {poison} status... But then again.>>

<<It would be the best spot to possible hide something.>>

<<And so I climbed the volcano and reached the top of it.>>

<<When I looked down, I saw it.>>

<<The bright colored purple lava.>>

<<Just as expected, just being on top of this place will afflict you with heavy negative effects.>>

<<Still, there was a way of entering this place.>>

<<I quickly went inside and noticed something that was weird instantly.>>

<<The formation inside of that volcanoes was... Odd to say the least.>>

<<Specifically saying, there was pseudo podium path which I could use to move around.>>

<<This was already suspicious like hell.>>

<<But still, once I’ve gotten inside of the volcano, the debuffs started getting heavier while the speed which my HP was dropping was steadily increasing the more time I spent inside.>>

<<Still, I had more than enough potions in inventory just in case, so everything should be fine.>>

<<I’ve wandered the inside of the volcano for sometime as the negative effects were getting more and more powerful.>>

<<But->>

(There is something here.) – thought Phantasia as he found a hidden passage.

(It is not guarded per say... But then again, you need to get somewhat deep inside of this place, before you could even notice this hole in the wall, and go even deeper in order to reach it.) – thought Phantasia as he entered passageway.

(Just reaching this place could easily kill with debuffs.) – thought Phantasia as he headed deeper and deeper, noticing that the path is stretching downwards.

"..."

"Weird."

(The negative effects are weakening.)

(Not only that, but it is starting to get colder.)

"...I guess this is reason why." – said Phantasia as he found a massive dark purple doors blocking off his path.

Phantasia opened up the door and passed through, causing the lone man to find himself inside of the corridor which was made out of pure purple rocks.

[You have entered the dungeon: Melting Challenge]

(Dungeon...) – thought Phantasia as he headed down the path... Before then arriving at the massive spacious room.

"Huh... This feels familiar." – said Phantasia as the room he found himself wasn’t just some random rock formation, but instead a build room made out of metallic looking bricks.

Phantasia also noticed a girded tiles below him, which revealed below a massive volumes of the purplish lava.

And in the very next moment, the lava below started slowly rising up, passing through the grids.

However, it wasn’t flooding the room.

No.

Instead, all of it moved to the center of the room and slowly started forming into something.

"Huh. Deza vu." – said Phantasia as the lava started forming into and cooling down, creating a humanoid rock shaped figure, which then began cracking up, revealing a creature of purple lava in a humanoid-like shape that was also covered in rocks which were once part of its shell, making them appear as if the figure of lava was wearing it like some kind of armor.

"I’m the warrior." – said the creature of lava with male heavy voice.

"Who are you?"

"The bearer of the divine power?"

"!"

(He knows I’m divinity user?) – thought excited Phantasia.

"I’m Phantasia. The one who had inherited the authority of the beauty and oasis." – said Phantasia as he introduced himself.

"..."

"I see." – said the warrior.

"...Tell me, warrior." – said Phantasia.

"Is this the temple of the challenge? For the one to challenge the trial left by the true gods of this world in order to find the worthy successor for their divinity?"

"It is." – said the warrior.

"This is the temple of the god of pure destruction."

"Guriow."

"And I’m his last priest, the one who was charged with protecting this place."

"However, before you even ask." – said the creature of lava as he started pouring lava from hand, which then formed into a sword like blade that the warrior used to point at the Phantasia.

"You already posses the divinity, chosen one."

"Unfortunately, you are not allowed to take on this challenge."

"...Is this because we are only able to bare single divinity?" – asked Phantasia.

"Precisely."

"Unfortunately, you will be unable to take the trial left by the god."

"Nor you could possible even claim the divinity stored within."

"So please."

"Leave."

"..."

"I understand." – said Phantasia.

"But I have a question."

"What is it?" – asked the warrior.

"I’m only here to look for this temple in order for another being to take on this trial, but what sort of trial it shall be? And is it possible for me to help out?" – asked Phantasia.

"It is a trial of might and power." – said the warrior.

"As for the help."

"The only one who is allowed to take on this challenge is the chosen... But they can bring forth a support of four, if so, they wish."

"However, only one shall be rewarded."

"As for you? No."

"The ones who bare the divinity of the true gods, the chosen ones, are not allowed to provide the help."

"They shall not be permitted."

"..."

"I see... Thank you." – said Phantasia as he turned around after nodding his head, before then leaving the dungeon.

"..."

(He didn’t kicked me out forcefully.) – thought Phantasia.

(Nor it seemed like I couldn’t enter the dungeon in the first place.)

(That means I’m not restricted from entering.)

(And that means I’m not restricted from messing this place up.) – thought Phantasia as he opened up his friend list.

(And possible even destroying the divinity stored within!)

[Player Maparapara accepted the call.]

(But first things.)

"Maparapara."

"I found it."
