Chapter 1046: New Information on Nicholas
Reign nodded, his eyes scanning the cavern below. "We need to report this encounter back at the base. That behemoth is more dangerous than we anticipated."
As the elevator reached the surface, they stepped out into the bright light that was present in the Torkan. The warmth was a stark contrast to the cool, damp air of the underground cavern.
The specter glanced at them before smiling.
"Seems like you\'re all fine, but oh my, it doesn\'t seem like you lot had a good time down there."
"We encountered a powerful behemoth in the underground desert," Reign said as he glanced at the specter before shaking his head. "This creature was unlike anything we\'ve faced before, it had the ability to control rocks and summon reinforcements, making it a formidable opponent."
Mia nodded, her face showing signs of worry. "And its forehead seems to have some sort of magnetic pull, drawing our attacks towards it."
"This makes it even harder to deal any significant damage."
"We need to be better prepared for encounters like this," Jin said. "Our current strategy needs to be refined, we need to find ways to counter its abilities and take it down more efficiently."
"Well, you can definitely do so, but the chances of you coming across that thing again are not high, don\'t forget, each time you take the elevator down, you will find yourselves in a different area of the underground."
"In my opinion, forming plans to battle certain creatures is not that effective, but of course, since the one you fought was a boss, then things are a bit different as they are tricky bastards." Discover hidden content at mvl
The specter\'s words resonated with the team. They knew that the underground was vast and filled with unknown dangers. They had to adapt and be ready for anything that came their way.
Reign and the team returned to the base, their minds filled with thoughts of the behemoth and the challenges they had faced. They knew that their encounter was just one of many in the underground and that they would face even greater threats in the future.
As they entered the base, they were greeted by the familiar sights and sounds of their home. The bustling activity of the base was a stark contrast to the quiet of the underground, and it was a welcome change.
Reign immediately called for a meeting, wanting to discuss their encounter and formulate a plan moving forward. The team gathered in the main meeting room, their faces grim but determined.
"We faced a powerful enemy in the underground," Reign began, his voice steady. "We need to be better prepared for future encounters."
"We need to train harder, refine our strategies, and be ready for anything that comes our way."
The team nodded in agreement, their determination evident. They knew that their journey was far from over and that they would face many more challenges in the days to come.
"The behemoth was a great danger to us, that much is certain, but we can definitely defeat it if it is alone," Jin said as he stared at the others.
"The main issue is the fact the bastard is able to summon so many monsters as reinforcements, the sheer number of them alone is enough to cause great trouble for us, but the main issue is the six mini-bosses as each one of us needs to go up against one."
"And even then, it is a tough battle, one that can take quite some time before it\'s finished," Jin said as the others nodded, fully agreeing with his statement.
The team discussed their encounter with the behemoth in detail, analyzing its abilities and strategizing on how to counter them. They knew that facing such a formidable foe required careful planning and coordination.
They wouldn\'t plan for too long as what the specter had said was correct, they had no idea if they would face the behemoth again in the future, but if they did, they wanted to be ready for it.
For now, however, they would rest.
They had exploded forth with all their strength while running away from the behemoth, and they were quite tired. They needed to rest a bit, and then, they would go back to the underground to battle against the monsters there again.
As they were resting, however, Reign received a message from Drayce. It seemed that the informants of the monastery had managed to get some information about Nicholas.
Reign\'s heart skipped a beat as he read Drayce\'s message. The informants had managed to uncover some information about Nicholas, something they had been desperately searching for. He quickly gathered the team in the main meeting room, excitement and anticipation evident on his face.
"Drayce\'s informants have found something," Reign began, his voice filled with urgency.
"I\'m going over to Drayce, I want to find out just what they were able to find out about Nicholas."
The others all nodded at Reign who quickly went out and made his way to the temple.
Reign entered the monastery, his heart pounding with anticipation. Drayce was waiting for him in his office, a serious expression on his face.
"Reign," Drayce greeted as Reign entered. "I\'m glad you\'re here. We\'ve made some progress on Nicholas."
Reign\'s eyes lit up with excitement. "What did your informants find?"
Drayce motioned for Reign to take a seat before handing him a stack of papers. "It\'s not much, but it\'s a start. We managed to uncover some of Nicholas\'s recent activities and connections."
Reign quickly scanned the documents, his mind racing as he absorbed the information. There were reports of suspicious transactions, sightings of Nicholas in various cities, and rumors of alliances with other powerful individuals.
"This is valuable," Reign said, his voice filled with determination. "With this information, we can start piecing together Nicholas\'s movements and motives."
Drayce nodded in agreement. "But be careful Reign, Nicholas is a dangerous man, and he\'s always one step ahead."
"We don\'t know what he\'s planning, so proceed with caution."
Reign nodded, his mind already racing with plans and strategies. "Thank you, Drayce, this is exactly what we needed."
As Reign left the monastery, his mind was filled with thoughts of Nicholas and the looming confrontation ahead. He knew that they were closer than ever to uncovering the truth and bringing Nicholas to justice.
Back at the base, Reign gathered the team once more, sharing the information they had received from Drayce\'s informants. The atmosphere was tense but hopeful, and each member of the team was ready to do whatever it took to stop Nicholas.
"We need to stay vigilant," Reign said, his voice filled with determination. "Nicholas may be elusive, but we have the advantage of numbers and resources."
"We\'ll use every tool at our disposal to track him down and bring him to justice."
The next day, however, Reign and the others once again went to the desert and entered the large pyramid before stepping on the elevator in order to go down and fight the monsters.
As the elevator descended into the darkness, Reign\'s mind raced with thoughts of their upcoming battles and the challenges that lay ahead. They had faced many dangers in the underground, but Nicholas posed a unique threat—one that required careful planning and strategy to overcome.
When the elevator reached the bottom, they stepped out into the vast expanse of the desert cavern. The air was dry and dusty, and there was little light in this underground area. But despite the harsh conditions, Reign and his team pressed forward, eager to find out what kinds of monsters were present in this area and how powerful they were.
As they ventured deeper into the underground desert, Reign and his team encountered a variety of monsters, each more formidable than the last. The creatures ranged from giant scorpions with poisonous stingers to sand elementals that could manipulate the very earth itself.
Compared to the previous area they were in, this underground area had a lot of soil and sand, which was very different from the rocky one they were in yesterday.
Their encounters with these creatures were intense and challenging, pushing them to their limits as they fought for survival. But with each battle, they grew stronger as they managed to gain quite a lot of exp and increase their level by one.
The monsters here were very different compared to the lizards and insectoids they faced yesterday, but they were just as deadly if not even more.
Some of them were very good at hiding their presence, making it difficult for even Reign to notice them at times.
Still, compared to the overwhelming strength Reign and the others had, they were still nothing more but prey.
