BXBX NOVEL Chapter 508 Second Floor
Fein was overwhelmed with colorful lights for a while after he stepped in on the space circle. The light was made of dust that glittered all around him.
\'Sofia? Voli?\' Fein tried to look around him to find his companions, but he couldn\'t find them.
Suddenly, the lights that were so dazzling gradually dissipated. Then an intense dizziness struck, but was quickly suppressed by his S-rank brain processing talent.
Just like that, the light went away. Fein felt he appeared in another space. He also felt three familiar presence behind him.
"So dizzy... I don\'t want to experience that again!"
Fein heard Sofia\'s complaining voice behind him.
\'Well, that\'s really quite intense. It\'s as if I took an elevator from 11th to the ground floor of a building,\' Fein mused to himself.
If not for his universal talent, which gave him a powerful consciousness and brain. He might still feel dizzy.
"Blerghxha!"
Hearing a weird sound, Fein couldn\'t help but turn his head right beside him. Only to see Voli puking. Voli vomited at least half of the food that he ate on the first floor.
"So stinky!" Aoi pinched her nose slightly. Although she couldn\'t really smell anything.
Fein ignored the commotion behind him and began to take in the surrounding in his eyes.
This time, an absurd lake that stretched almost infinitely ahead of their sight appeared. The color of the water in the like was dark yellow and there are head of monster that surfaces every minute.
For the lurking monsters, Fein ignored them temporarily, as he wasn\'t familiar with them.
The river was 8 meter wide. On the shore of the river, different kinds of trees with dark leaves were lined up.
Fein didn\'t see wall this time. If he didn\'t know that he was inside the tower, he would think that the space circle transferred him to the outside world.
"Should we just follow this river?" Sofia looked around her as soon as her dizziness disappeared. She couldn\'t see trees except for the ones beside the river.
Sofia looked at the blood red sky, black clouds looming, and the half orange, half purple moon.
The entire scene gave Sofia a sense of doom.
\'Why is there sky in the first place? Why is there a moon?\' Sofia was appalled at this and began to doubt if they were really on the second floor of the tower.
After all, it was already like a dimension on its own!
"Well, let\'s just follow this river." Fein agreed.
He walked to the river carefully. That\'s when a black shadow jumped from the river to them. The water splashed two meters high, then the shadow appeared in front of Voli in a split of second.
Voli looked at the ugly thing in front of him. It has a humanoid form. Two pairs of arms and feet. But it\'s head was that of fish. It has gills on its body where the ribs were located and fins on its neck. It was a green-skinned humanoid creature with pupilless dark green eyes and orange hair.
\'T-this... So ugly.\' Voli subconsciously produced a violent lightning that struck the monster in front of him senseless.
As the lightning hit the monster. The body of the monster was overloaded by the electrocution.
Due to this, the body of the monster exploded into stumps. Bits of flesh flew in all directions.
Seeing an arm coming to his way, Fein redirected it with his telekinesis. As a result, the piece of arm fell into the mud near the river.
Suddenly, the surface of the river rippled. Fein saw some shadows quickly went away.
Fein instantly understood the situation. There are river monsters the lurks in the river, waiting for the opportunity to jump and attack them. However, they were frightened when they witnessed how their companion ended up. Voli\'s show of power frightened the river monsters.
It\'s equivalent to showing an example to the monster, and they didn\'t dare to attack anymore.
"I think this monster experienced mutation. They looked like half-fish and half-human." Sofia commented.
"The monsters in this place is are kind of diverse. Just what are these witches doing? It\'s as if their base is a dungeon itself."
Fein didn\'t know that his guess was only one step close to the truth. After all, dungeons and secret realm aren\'t that different from each other. They were similar in function. They both housed monsters that act as a challenge for intruders.
\'I hope I could collect more souls on this floor than the first floor.\' He stepped on the murky soil and stared at the river water. At this time, he notice the bubbles on the surface. Suddenly, an idea flashed through his mind.
Since there was a monster below the river which has tried to ambush them. Then it\'s just reasonable that the number of monsters in the depth of the river would be larger than the land. As of now, he couldn\'t sense any presence of a monster.
"Hey, wait for me here. I\'ll see if I could gain some souls deepest parts of this river. Though if the three of you want to follow, you\'re free to do so." Fein said to his friends.
"What? In the river!? No thanks. I\'ll just wait here." Sofia glanced at the dark green water. Just imagining all the dirt from the river made her feel a sense of repulse.
Fein knew that woman hate dirty things so he could understand Sofia\'s refusal. He didn\'t really need them to follow since he was confident that he could manage monsters that hadn\'t surpassed the SS rank realm. Then Fein turned his head at Sofia and Voli. "How about you guys? Do you want to come?"
Voli looked at the dark green water with hesitation. In the end, he shook his head. He didn\'t want his golden fur to get the dirty color of the river water.
"Even if you force me, I won\'t go." Aoi took a step back.
Hearing this, Fein nodded. Then dived in to the river with a perfect posture similar to top 1% athletes that joined the Olympics.
\'Here I come! This time, I won\'t leave until I wiped out all the monsters here.\'
