Sadistic Player In A Fantasy Game World

Tower (1)



Tower (1)

"My ability is creating blood weapons, and hers is healing," said Gray as he pulled out a blood sword.

"Okay, please come this way," said the aide as she led Gray to the front of the tower portal.

"Wait here until the other challengers are ready," said the aide before leaving again.

Soon the front of the portal was crowded with a hundred people. Some people looked afraid, while others had the look of greed in their eyes.

'The more people there are, the more blood for me to use, so you won't hear me complaining.' thought Gray as Agent Ria began announcing something.

"The next group is entering the tower! Please stand back!"

[Tower of the Dead.]

[Floors 10]

[Difficulty F-A+]

[Maximum number of players allowed: 100]

[Please confirm entry] said an autonomous voice as the group waited to enter the tower.

"Accept!" shouted Agent Ria, and the tower portal changed from red to blue.

"You may proceed!" said Agent Ria, before the group of one hundred slowly entered the portal.

Once the group went through the portal someone screamed in terror, at the horrific scene that lay in front of them.

"What the hell happened here?" murmured someone else at the front of the group.

The first floor of the tower seemed to be another world altogether. It was as if they were not inside a building anymore.

The group seemed to have been teleported to a cemetery, with hundreds of dead bodies lying on the ground, their blood staining the floor red, and the putrid smell of rotting flesh filled the air.

[Tower of the dead Floor 1]

[Conditions of passage, kill all enemies.] as the autonomous voice said this, the bodies of those who had died, as well as the bodies of those buried in the cemetery came back to life.

'This is a bust, the dead have no blood for me to use, which means I can't see the Mighty Swords' bloodlust ability' complained Gray as everyone else began screaming in fear.

"So what? Basically, kill zombies?" laughed the leader of the group of thugs as he and his group charged at the undead.

The leader threw his knife at one of the zombies, calling it back once it had hit its target.

'So he can control knives huh?' thought Gray as he watched the group fight.

The largest person in their group, a man who stood at 1.98 meters tall pulled out a giant sledgehammer that made shockwaves each time it hit the ground.

'Impressive' thought Gray as he watched the zombies fall one by one.

'However, will that really be enough?'

The zombies that were seemingly defeated kept rising each time they fell. Although the group had impressive powers and were aiming for the zombie's heads, only the giant man seemed to be dealing any real damage.

And that was because he completely destroyed the bodies of the zombies with his war hammer, otherwise, they would've stood up all the same.

"Come, let's go," whispered Gray before running away from the main group deeper into the cemetery, dodging any zombies that tried to attack him, Tesse following close behind.

Soon the giant man became exhausted from swinging his war hammer so much, and the group slowly became overwhelmed by the sheer number of zombies present.

Although they were slow-moving, there were three times as strong as a goblin, making them harder to deal with, especially due to their number.

The others weren't coping so well either.

'These idiots, do they really think that shooting zombies in the head would work?' wondered Gray as he heard gunshots. Some of the people in the group had come equipped with guns, however shooting a zombie in the head only worked in the movies.

'Zombies are beings created by necromancy, as such they can only be killed once the source of the magic that brought them back to life has been destroyed as well,' thought Gray as he searched the cemetery for anything suspicious.

Gray was using the knowledge he had gained from playing games to his advantage, however, surely he was not the only one who was thinking of this out of all the people that ever challenged this tower.

'There are too many of them for it to be a normal necromancer. Perhaps a lich? No, the voice claimed that the tower had an F to A+ difficulty, why would something as powerful as a lich be on the first floor?' thought Gray as he used a normal blood sword to cut off another zombie's head off.

Tesse was doing a great job in dealing with the zombies that strayed to close to them as they ran around the cemetery looking for clues.

If they stopped running they would risk being mobbed by the zombies, something that they couldn't afford to do, especially when they had no idea what was fueling the undead.
