Rise of the Undead Legion Chapter 475 - Chaos Dungeon 2.0

Chapter 475 - Chaos Dungeon 2.0

Dave, his hundred Doom Knights, and the rest of the players soon arrived to a familiar area.
"Right, this was an easy passage." Dave said.
"What do you mean?" Zoe asked.
"Well, the first time I went through here, I had to fight a lot of those Salamanders. But it seems that they've all escaped and are in hiding. We'll enter the Chaos Dungeon right at the next crossing." Dave pointed forward.
He made a fist gesture and pointed forward for everyone to follow.
Soon he received a notification.
You have entered the hidden [Chaos Dungeon]
This Dungeon has already been cleared. No boss will be spawning here anymore.
Dave's group entered the Chaos dungeon. The dim interior of the cave was so sweltering hot it was difficult even to breathe. Heat radiated off the stone walls of the tunnel and scorching dry air blew up from the depths and into their faces.
Dave checked through his character sheet; he was steadily approaching an [Overheated] state.
"Damn, it's the same as last time. Guys it's time you use the stuff I gave you." Dave said.
The party members all brought the yellow vials up their mouths and drank the liquid.
"Damn, this smells like piss. Where'd you get this nasty potion?" flanker was the first to talk.
"From the Ash King's Keep. This is the only thing that'll be enough for you guys to support the heat from this dungeon, believe me you'll need it." Dave explained.
A yellow glow glimmered against the players avatars and soon it faded leaving a faint sheen upon their bodies.
"Oh, it really feels much cooler now," Zoe said.
"Yep, alright be ready it's gonna be a real hassle from here onwards. There will be some annoying big ass lava fish that will try to bring you down into some lava pits for a quick hot snack. Be careful be ready." Dave turned to the rest of his undead doom knights and shouted.
"LEGIONAIRS! IF ANY OF YOU DARE FALL IN THE LAVA PITS, I'LL HAVE THEM SHOVEL BASILISK SHIT WITH A FORK FOR A YEAR! DO YOU UNDERSTAND!"
"SIR, YES SIR!" all the doom knights answered in a single voice.
"Good, follow along!" Dave called and the party moved forward.
Just as the group began entering the tunnel, Dave heard a call. "Lord! I have arrived!"
The Tengu had just finished Dave's missions and flew down next to him.
"Good to see you, have you done all I asked for?"
"Yes Lord, the fishermen at the Undead Frontier are currently fishing and feeding Grave Lord Tiny. As for the combat in the East, so far it's going according to your plan. Waves of undead are swarming the Stalwart and piling damage upon it while it is trapped under the sea thanks to the Kraken. The Sea God is in perfect control of the situation."
"Great, alright ready up, we'll be moving soon."
"Lord, I have also brought someone with me to help us in this dungeon."
"You brought the priestess?" Dave asked, her cooling spell would be perfect to alleviate the heat the Doom Knights were going to undoubtedly suffer.
"Sir, I have not. But I have brought Lord Du'Rhaza, he is a master of Ice Magic and I believe he will be much more capable to manage our large numbers than would the young priestess."
"Oh, damn, that's smart. Where is he?" Dave asked.
"Right here, young Prince. This dungeon is pretty hot." The infamous/famous Ice lich spoke, his white blue robs fluttered from an invisible wind as he floated and arrived to Dave's whereabout.
"You're that lich from that time!" Lone Arrow exclaimed.
"I believe I know of your person, young elf, friend of Prince Kis'Shtiengbrah."
"It's Girlfirend." Zoe corrected.
"Ugh, we know that, you don't need to tell the whole world. Heck you're even bragging to a lich." Flanker said.
Zoe looked at the priest in a dead smile and said "Your head surprisingly looks like an apple right now."
"The hell does that has to do with anything?" Flanker said.
Zoe didn't reply but Perfect Shot did, "She is an archer bro. Do I need to say anymore?"
Those words made Flanker immediately shut his gullet. But he couldn't do so without grumbling words under his breath, "Damn y'all bulling me, I feel like an outcast."
Dave shook his head, Flanker deserved all the roasting for having to always keep his mouth yapping.
"Du'Rhaza, you'll help us I suppose."
"Oh definitely, I grew bored in the Dead Realm, so when I heard you're coming to raid this place I asked Lord Tengu to guide me to where you are. So what's the deal, why is everyone standing here?"
"We were about to go in. Alright, head forward everyone. Du'Rhaza I'm counting on you to keep the army in a perfect condition, things are about to get hot."
They arrived at another section of the mines, where a natural rock formation bridged a river of flowing lava.
"Careful, some pretty nasty fish are swimming in this lava river. Get your guard up." Dave said.
The party moved ahead, where no fish dared jump. Dave, for a moment believed that perhaps the fish was afraid of him. "I don't see any fish man, you sure there are any?" Flanker commented. Due to this comment, whatever hope Dave had for the fish to not jump immediately evaporated. As, by irony, fate or just utter complete dumb luck, large bubbles in the lava welled up and then burst with a loud popping sound. From the bubbles, fish leapt in a high ballistic arc. Twice the size of a basilisk, it resembled a largemouth bass with extra-large, spiny fins. The giant fish sailed over the bridge opening wide their cavernous mouths toward the Undead.
"Shit." Flanker commented as the fish dropped down toward them.
The players all loaded their weapons, readied their shields and skills and shot at the incoming monsters. The Doom Knight held their tower shield strong, poised toughly against the ground and the incoming fish and blocked every single assault. Causing the fish to fall on the bridge and flap stupidly, unable to breath or return to the lava.
"KINGS' IMPALE!" Du'Rahaza shouted, one palm slammed into the bridge's ground. And from his motion, spears the size of trees rose from the bridge and right through the flapping fish, or the ones still jumping in the skis. Going cleanly in between Undead, harmlessly and still dealing tons of damage to the enemies.
The Doom Knight drew their bastard great swords and sliced down with them at the fish.
The surprise assault was instantly quenched, and the aggressive fish was soon turned to ingredients.
"Damn, man, when will you ever learn to keep your mouth shut? Just for five minutes man, will it kill you to do it?" Fortress groaned.
"Not really, but that was a friendly comment man. I mean-" Flanker was abruptly cut by Fortress..
"Shhh!"
"But"
"Shhhh!
"I"
"Shhhhhhhhh!"
Yet what really made Flanker quiet was not only Fortress's shushing, it was Zoe's drawn taut bowstring aimed right at his head.
Also, the subtle whispering of Perfect Shot, "Apple, apple, apple,"
"Your friends are quite peculiar," Du'Rhaza spoke.
"Well, they're humans, what do you expect?" Dave said.
"Indeed, humans are the strangest of beings. Yet I fail to remember acting thus way when I used to be…human."
"Different times, you know." Dave shrugged.
"Let's keep moving!" Dave gave the order and the party headed even deeper.
