Splash! Splash!
The waterfall was several hundred meters tall, its gushing water was similar to heavy white chains, majestically and continuously falling into a small lake of less than fifty meters in diameter. It acted as a natural barrier, shielding the passageway to the Underworld. The passageway was located in a cave behind the waterfall and guarded by Cerberus. Therefore, it was not easily known by outsiders.
***
“What was that just now?”
“I don’t know. There’s no one in the water… Nothing on the shore either…”
Bizarre Blade and the other players were bewildered as they continuously swept their eyes over the area thoroughly. Yet, not even the shadow of a person could be seen. Every single one of them could not help but wonder if their nerves had gotten to them. Or perhaps, the waterfall just gave rise to a situation where they would imagine hearing things.
They had no idea that the guy who screamed like Tarzan earlier had already fallen into the water—poor Qin Ruo was in a bad situation. He had used too much force, so he flew directly past the heads of Bizarre Blade as well as the others and fell into the waterfall where he was met with a powerful torrent of water smashing down on him. It made him dizzy and blurred his eyesight; he nearly fainted.
The waterfall, which had been gushing down endlessly, slammed into Qin Ruo with great strength. It also had considerable Physical Attack Effect and lethality. Had he not been in a similar form as the Water Element and been able to directly fuse his body with it, he would have probably been killed by the direct and continuous bombardment of such a formidable force…
However, it was also due to the waterfalls that the sound of his fall into the water was similar to that of a mosquito. He was completely muffled by the rumbling falls, thus escaping the vigilant as well as patrolling gaze of Bizarre Blade and team.
“What happened? Why have we stopped?!”
In the forest, Brony saw the team stop, and he wondered if something had gone wrong. He quickly called out to the team.
A Netherspirit’s Claw warrior took the lead to react and replied, “That sound! It may have been an illusion created by the waterfall. I heard wrong!” The sound of the falling waterfall was very loud, and it was normal to have faint auditory hallucinations.
“F*ck! Then don’t waste time there, let’s go in quickly! The Boss is going to turn back!” Naturally, Brony did not realize that someone had screamed like Tarzan. After he heard the warrior, he frowned sharply, and in a loud voice, impatiently urged the group to make haste!
A few Netherspirit’s Claw warriors did not dare stall any further. They instantly turned and proceeded to jump into the lake. They swam through the rising mist towards the splashing waterfall.
However, Bizarre Blade and the Hall of Heroes’ Bowmaster did not immediately turn around. The two continued to glance at the lake in astonishment, too tensed to relax one bit.
Auditory hallucination? How could it be possible!
It may have been possible if one or two had auditory hallucinations, but so many people had auditory hallucinations together? To hell with it! Moreover, the sound earlier was so clear; how could it have been made by the waterfall?
That’s right!
Some other players were also eyeing the place like them!
The two men did not let the treasure taint their ability to think clearly. Once they confirmed their point, they began to feel more and more nervous as they watched the lake and the shore repeatedly. They could not find anything. The Level 45 Bowmaster could not find any trace of another player. Furthermore, in the water, it would be difficult for Bandits to hide their whereabouts. Yet, there was no one in the lake or on the shore. What did that mean?!
After they exchanged glances, the two men got into a defensive stance with their backs against each other. They took a quick glance at the few people who had rushed to the front of the waterfall, and later peered at Brony’s group of players in the forest. Their gazes suddenly became tense. They were intimidated by the oppressive and terrifying might of Cerberus in the distance.
‘Damn it! The two Bowmasters… They were already knocked out so quickly?’
The two players were anxious, and soon after, they hastily reacted. The sudden strange noise from earlier had made them hesitate for a few seconds.
Under normal circumstances, those few seconds would not have been a big deal, but during a critical moment like that where every second counted, such mistakes could be lethal!
“Run!”
“Get as many as possible away, quick!”
Bizarre Blade did not hesitate to yell at his comrade, Little Tiger, and they both swam from the small lake to the shore before they rushed in the direction they came from earlier!
***
Behind the shrubs in the forest, the two Elementalists from Netherspirit’s Claw stared dumbfounded at Bizarre Blade as well as Little Tiger who had rushed to shore and fled. With a blank expression, they looked back at Brony and asked, “They’re… What are they doing? ” Going by some of their expressions, it was uncertain whether they were happy or otherwise…
In short, it was just really weird.
Even Brony gazed at Bizarre Blade and Little Tiger in admiration for putting aside their own personal interests for the common good of all. He felt pleasantly surprised but also speechless as he stared at their speeding silhouettes. Finally, he muttered, “Good brother, you can rest assured and go in peace! I’ll send your portion over to you quickly.”
It turned out that the moment the two jumped ashore, Cerberus had locked on to them. The Boss’ tracking operation immediately had a slight deviation. He gave up the habitat point behind the waterfall and chased down Bizarre Blade and Little Tiger, who had originally planned to flee. No wonder Brony and the others had such abnormal reactions—in their view, Bizarre Blade and Little Tiger seemed to be stalling for time for those who would be entering the waterfall. That was considered self-sacrifice in the face of danger.
However, the “self-sacrificing” Bizarre Blade and Little Tiger put even more energy into fleeing once they landed on the shore. After they discovered that the Boss was chasing them, the two fellows began to weep silently in their hearts and cursed incessantly, “Damn! F*ck! It’s said that the Tier 5 Boss is more intelligent than a human…”
“Lies! The bastard’s three heads are all so stupid! Someone’s eyeing your old lair, idiot dog!”
***
After crashing into the waterfall and entering inside, several Netherspirit’s Claw warriors screamed of their good luck in muffled voices. The damn waterfall was actually an offensive barrier, which could cause 200 Non-Defendable Damage per second to the human body. If all the warriors had not possessed more than 800 HP and considerable resistance to the effects of physical attacks, they would have possibly been inconceivably crushed to death in the waterfall.
“This damn waterfall!”
“F*ck! I don’t know which crazy person designed it; the waterfall has such a high level of damage, and it deliberately inflicts harm onto others too!”
“Fortunately, Brony and the others didn’t come in…” Although a few people were conversing and swearing, their eyes were actually like laser guns. As they walked inside, they scanned the passageway ahead, which was less than 10 m in length, looking for the existence of something similar to a high-grade ore or a treasure chest.
It was part of the information they had obtained from the League’s internal forum—published by several powerful members. Due to the special environment in the Graveyard of the Gods, to help players avoid fighting against the powerful Boss but still obtain some rewards as well as further consolidate the strength of the League’s members, such information was gathered and disseminated.
Brony was one of the beneficiaries of such information…
With no result from their search in the passageway, several warriors unrelentingly continued to go deeper!
“Wow!”
“It’s so big!”
From the passageway, they turned a corner around a small bend, and several players were shocked by the giant cave that suddenly greeted them. Sighing, they cautiously stopped.
The environment in the place was evidently not quite consistent with the information on the forum.
The other habitats, at most, were lairs used for hoarding artifacts and sleeping, thus those areas would not be too big. However, the cave in front of them could be described as spectacular!
Its length and width were about two hundred meters, plus it was so high that the top could not be seen!
That was not even the most incredible part.
On the opposite end of the cave was a dark, overcast door of space and time. It was more than 10 m in height and hidden in the distance. The door seemed as if it had been erected there since the beginning of time. It carried a strong, dignified presence and cold, ominous air around it, but it was made of an unknown material. The door was wide open, revealing a quietly-rotating realm similar to a night sky filled with bright stars…
“This! This is…”
Several warriors of Netherspirit’s Claw were completely shocked by the scene before them!
Looking at the mysterious giant door of space and time about 200 m away, several of them were afraid to breathe. On the opposite side, there was an invisible but formidable and imposing aura seeping out from the door of space and time, curbing their next move!
A feeling of bafflement clung to their hearts, as though someone had sounded an alarm in their mind. “Leave this place! You should not have come here!”
Unfortunately, human curiosity was a really terrible thing…
Especially when one faced unknown things and did not see the obvious dangers, one would always look for the good side and hope to gain something.
“Treasure chest!”
“Quickly!”
Finally, one hopeful warrior had his wish granted, and he discovered a golden treasure chest shining brightly and magnificently next to the door of space and time…
The treasure chest was sitting quietly on one side of the door!
As the warrior exclaimed, several players simultaneously became focused. Their eyes lit up with ecstasy, greed, and excitement.
The next second, several players ignored the powerful, oppressive and menacing aura from the door of space and time, speeding towards the opposite side together!
A few people did not realize that when they were deeply distracted by the treasure chest, the cave had clearly muffled the sound of rumbling water outside the waterfall. However, there was a sudden sound of water bursting behind the cave…
Splash! Splash!
The waterfall was several hundred meters tall, its gushing water was similar to heavy white chains, majestically and continuously falling into a small lake of less than fifty meters in diameter. It acted as a natural barrier, shielding the passageway to the Underworld. The passageway was located in a cave behind the waterfall and guarded by Cerberus. Therefore, it was not easily known by outsiders.
