Nameless King

Chapter 290: The Gate

Wain was exhausted and could not even activate a single skill. He calmly stepped into the main square and saw an amazing scene.

A huge amount of energy turned into a massive gate, something similar to the gate to the Purgatory area, but it was Dungeon. This was indicated by the completely filled stripes above the gate and the bright red burning crystal.

'What? Why is there a Dungeon here? What the hell is going on?' Wain exclaimed to himself and saw several messages.

[A Dungeon has appeared in the Forest of Frozen Dreams territory, Bone Cave.]

[Dungeon will not disappear until it is cleared and someone destroys the core or until Dungeon submits to the Void in which it has appeared.]

[If the Void loses, the Dungeon will absorb that Void and grow in size to form a new space.]

"Damn, bad timing..." Wain muttered and ate the last white pill, which was supposed to speed up energy recovery.

Wain was exhausted, and the appearance of a high-level Dungeon was a major setback. He felt it was Second Chronicle Dungeon, and it was a serious threat. Wain had only recently become a Second Chronicle creature and was below the midrange.

Bone Cave had a red crystal which meant that Ascendant Rating monsters likely inhabited it, and also, considering the number of lanes, it was quite large.

"Wain!" Elegan exclaimed, running into the main square.

"Gather everyone, let the already evolved monsters get ready to defend themselves and bring the others here. Also, I need help from Edena and Lui Bu. They need to restore my energy reserves urgently." Wain said seriously.

"Got it!" Elegan quickly replied and ran in the other direction.

Wain concentrated, and his Seal of Darkness glowed brightly. He wanted to return to the real world and ask Forgotten for help. It was the best option in this situation. However, he could not open the portal to the spatial rift.

'Shit, it looks like space is blocked. Fuck, evolving hundreds of monsters turned out to be quite a dangerous venture, but could I have predicted that the energy would turn into Dungeon?'

Anything could have happened during the energy buildup. The emergence of Dungeon was just one possibility.

Crackle.

There was a loud creaking sound, and the gate slowly began to open.

Some monsters had already managed to approach, including the Dark Elves led by Reto. They were no exception and evolved as well.

This happened in a few hours because they were members of Voids, and Wain's energy helped them speed up the process. This method had pluses such as speed and help from another creature, but it also had minuses because they had to be in the Void and get energy.

If Lea, who had never been here before, came to Wain's Void, she would not get help from Wain. The Dark Threads would not go to her because she was an outsider, and her energy was foreign.

Reto and the other Dark Elves spent most of their time in this Void and used the resources of this area to advance. This area was their home, and the energy was something native to them.

Step.

Frigus stepped out of the cave. His steps were heavy and confident. His appearance had changed slightly. His white hair was longer, his eyes deeper, and his armor sleeker and denser.

The swords were slightly shorter than before but wider and sharper. Swords used to look like sabers or rapiers, but now they were massive two-handed swords that could pierce even very strong armor.

There was a menacing aura emanating from Frigus, and there was cold steam when he breathed.

'Great, Frigus is already here, but it will hardly be enough.' Wain thought.

Frigus and Reto were stronger than the others in the Forest of Frozen Dreams, but they could not defeat several Second Chronicle creatures. They were just embarking on a new path.

"Wain, go away. We'll hold them off." Reto said, approaching Wain.

Unlike most times, he looked serious now. He no longer wore the pleasant smile and joyful gleam in his eyes. Reto understood how dangerous the situation was and knew that Wain's safety was paramount.

"No, that's out of the question. I'm staying here."

Reto walked over to him, put a hand on his shoulder, and muttered, "I knew you would say that, so I'm sorry."

"What?"

Reto's eyes flashed, and he blew out a club of purple smoke. Wain didn't have time to react, and everything in front of his eyes began to blur.

"What did you do... Reto... damn it..." Wain muttered and collapsed.

He gradually fell asleep, and his eyes closed.

"I'm sorry, but I had to do it."

Frigus saw this but didn't stop Reto. He understood what the point of this dangerous venture was. Reto couldn't let Wain die or get hurt. It threatened to kill them all.

Reto lifted Wain by the shoulders and headed for the cave.

"Stop!" Suddenly Edena's loud voice was heard running toward them along with Lui Bu and Elegan.

Edena had a small suitcase in her hands that looked like a medicine case, and on Lui Bu's back was a backpack filled with various medicines and potions.

"Get out of here now!" Reto shouted, "Frigus, get them out of here."

"Wait, the gate hasn't opened yet. Give them a chance."

Reto frowned but stopped and let Edena approach.

Edena took a syringe of white liquid out of the suitcase and stuck it into Wain's chest. Lui Bu prepared some pills, and when Wain woke up, he immediately swallowed them.

"Elegan, have the goblins distribute the pills to everyone. They increase protection and speed up energy regeneration." Edena said quickly.

"Of course."

Lui Bu handed out the pills, and Edena ran up to the strongest monsters and gave them the potions. For some monsters, she prepared something special, like to Reto and to Frigus.

Wain got to his feet and felt his energy recovering quickly.

'Huh, Lui Bu and Edena did a good job.'

"Can you fight?" Frigus asked, approaching him.

Wain nodded.

"I won't apologize for putting you to sleep." Reto said seriously.

"Of course, I would have done the same thing if I were you." Wain said smiling, and the Ring of Damned glowed brightly.

A purple potion appeared in his hand. The most valuable potion he had left was the Royal Grape Potion.

He drained the flask completely and felt his powers increase. His stats went up by 50, his regeneration increased, and his reflexes and reaction speed improved.

"Sorry to interrupt, but something is about to start." Lui Bu muttered, pointing to the gate and stepping aside.

Wain, Reto, and Frigus nodded.

The gate opened fully, and there was a whiff of cold, but not the kind that came from ice or snow, but from death.

A crackle. Crackle. Crack.

Immediately after that, there was a loud crackling sound, and the monsters came out of the portal.

It was a horde of skeletons with various, rather simple weapons.

"Damn, it's the undead!" Elegan exclaimed.

"That's a big problem. My hypnosis works poorly on the undead. Skeletons are the worst thing that could happen to us." Reto uttered and armed himself with a curved dagger.
