The Binary World - 76 Tumbling down the abyss Part-1
Azi grumbled as she trudged through the dungeon along with her teammates, it was frustrating to them either the enemies were so strong that they could not fight and if they could the mobs would either try to overwhelm them and then the dungeon itself would turn against them, not to mention the fact that they had to wait for long, extremely long periods of time before they would face another couple with the fact the entire place was a maze a giant maze testing them and trying them and the only reason they were able to navigate through it albeit a bit slowly was because of Zeus otherwise they would be still stumbling around like a blind person, but most importantly the cause of the irritation was something else as such she could not help but shout out in anger, “Someone please shut off that dreadful WHISTLING NOISE.”
Zeus looked towards BlizzardQueen as he spoke in a snobbish manner, “Queen be a dear and please switch off the noise.”
BlizzardQueen gave a polite nod as she spoke, “Of course dear.”, she then mimicked turning off an invisible switch before she spoke in a false tone off alarm, “Oh my seems like the switch is broken.”, before she let out a yelp as Azi jumped her fully intending to maim her.
As the others separated the duo CelestialMaiden spoke with a huff, “If you are having so much trouble with the noise why are you not using the menu to lower it.”
Sylphy, “Although an extremely nice suggestion it is unwise as you…”, whatever she was going to say was stuck in her throat as a portal opened without warning as Zeus promptly fell through it, as the portal promptly closed after he fell.
The others were stunned to silence before the promptly dashed towards the spot as a burned out rune marking was on the ground, as they reached the place Barbarianlady let out a swear, “Shit, shit how do we find him.”
Azi had quickly pulled out the friend list in order to message him, but her eyes widen as he left put a shocked gasp as she spoke in horror, “Zeus died.”
“WHAT!!!!!”, a shout of disbelief came from others as they quickly opened the friend list showing Zeus’s name written in red signifying his death, when suddenly it turned green signifying his revival as others gawked at that.
Meanwhile Zeus was taken aback when he suddenly fell through the portal, as he looked down all he was greeted by an dark abyss whose bottom he could not see, he felt wind rushing through his face as he when all of a sudden he saw the ground coming near he snorted at that and used his skill ‘Blink’, only to receive a message that made his eyes widen in horror.
[WARNING YOU HAVE ENTERED SPECIAL AREA, MANA POINTS SEALED]
With a splash he slammed on the ground as he felt incredible amount of pain momentarily before he died, leaving behind a broken bleeding body behind.
Zeus started at the black screen in front of him as a message was displayed in a blood red color.
[YOU DIED]
Zeus sighed at that as he whispered to himself, “My first death in the game and that is by bloody becoming a pancake, and I had hoped that I would have fallen in battle but this is damn I do not know what to do anymore.”
Before he could speak another message appeared in his HUD,

[HIDDEN SKILL ‘UN-YIELDING HATCHLING’ ACTIVATED.]
Suddenly he felt a rush of cool breeze before the pain hit him like a truck as he found himself quickly dumping a good few bottles of potion down his throat as he let out a small sigh as he watched his HP fill up slowly as he stared trying to see the ceiling in the darkness, as he heard a cackling noise causing him to groan.
He stood up as he found his armor in tatters once again, he was glad that he always had a back up armor with him, with a flick he donned his new armor and with ‘Shori’ in his hands he was ready to fight of the creatures cackling around.
He did not have to wait long as a large scorpion made up of bones appeared cackling in front of him, a giant scorpion of about 50 feet stood in front of him, a dozen of its bluish eyes glaring at him when it suddenly moved.
Zeus was in a very difficult spot he was in a place where his MP was sealed that means little to no magic and in other words since all of his skills required MP he was severely handicapped he knew that the odds were stacked up to the point he would lose as his chance for winning is rather slim to none yet for reasons unknown to him he felt elated he felt alive.
He dashed towards the scorpion as he reached towards it he send a thrust from his spear but to his horror the creature had managed to block, then he was hit hard by the claws of the creature destroying at least a quarter of his health in one hit, he flew in the air as he fell on the ground with a grown, but he did not have time move as the scorpion was on top of him slamming him hard before dragging him and throwing him towards the wall, he cratered on the wall before he slid on the ground.
Zeus watched the creature walking lazily towards it knew that his prey was in its last legs and it could do nothing, Zeus looked in his eyes with hatred they eyes that looked at him with disinterest as something that was not worthy to even breath the same air as it, Zeus gazed into it he felt anger like never before, he felt loathing like never before he wanted to tear it apart from limb by limb no one no one gives that kid of stare to him, when all of a sudden his vision went black as he became unconscious.
Melinda had a bored expression on her face as she watched over the data that was being gathered via various machines attached to a spoiled brat it was boring and she wanted nothing to do here except the pay was good, ‘hmp the joys of the rich, while we the poor suffer disgusting.’, she sipped into a cup of coffee that was freshly brewed and given to her by the staff of the house, when all of a sudden a few warning beeps were heard as the woman dashed to see the Blood Pressure rising all of a sudden it became normal, but then the brain activity spiked to levels she had never witnessed, she turned to look at the screen where the gameplay was being shown she watched in morbid fascination as the child in front of her fought no danced around the creature as he dismembered the creature limb by limb the very creature who thought him to be an easy prey had the situation reversed, as she watched with morbid fascination she quickly remembered to record everything as such she accessed her i-band only for a cough to stop her from recording anything.
As she turned she greeted by the sight of a glaring Yelena who spoke in a no nonsense tone in her voice, “If I remember the contact dictated that no matter what will be discovered it will never see the light of the day as long as it exposes Nathan’s identity I hope you were not foolish enough to breach the contract.”, she gulped hard as Yelena continued speaking, “I like you Melinda and it would be such a shame that you would meet with an unfortunate accident claiming your life, what would your poor children do, how will your husband raise them alone as well as pay for your sons treatment.”
Yelena gave a smirk akin to a devil that made Melinda shake with fear as she spoke, “I see so Nathan is enjoying his game and you are getting bored and because of some power surge because of unknown reasons in the vicinity the machine acted erroneously and you are keeping an eye on Nathan diligently is that not right Melinda.”, Melinda gave a shaky nod as Yelena spoke with a smile, “Such a nice woman you are do not worry we have arranged for your son to be shifted to a good hospital for treatment free of cost for being such diligent person, now I hope you will continue to work diligently and if you have anything similar as the power surge please contact either me or Nathan’s family.”, with that she left leaving behind a scared Melinda.
