[CH598+ Continued] Dungeon Diver: Stealing A Monster's Power

Chapter 754

The battle path of the two Kings is always shifting, and as the four travelers on this Demonic world make their way closer to the throne, their odds of running into the crossfire of these two forces of nature exponentially increases.

After being momentarily distracted by the energy output of Lydia's last use of her domain a few exchanges ago, the King became a bit irritated and decided to get rid of the disturbance. One of the long-range arrows was deflected by the sword-wielding King from roughly 12,000 kilometers away.

While this ricochet is nowhere near the force of a full-powered targeted attack from one of the Kings, it is still extremely strong.

The entire sky and area of demonic energy around that deflected energy wave come rocketing toward the group, and only Fisher notices it in time as his aura is spread the furthest.

He attempts to hold it off by summoning his ranked-up buff that could have easily killed first-class demonic beasts, but the second they hit this massive arrow of yellow light, all one thousand of the full-powered sword strikes are shattered, and their auras completely negated and devoured.

As Fisher's words of warning come from his lips, and the rest of the group hears them, a deadly cold ripple of nauseating energy flows through them.

Monk wastes no time and crushes his teleport crystal back to the moon base to leave, as out of everyone here, he knows the danger of this feeling best.

Luna follows, as she attempts to activate her perception buff to see what is happening, but only Qi is stimulated; her grasp on manipulating mana begins to drastically decrease. So, she leaves for the moon base before it's too late.

Fisher looks back to make eye contact with Lydia, and they too crush their crystals as they realize their situation.

All of the holographic feeds Ava watches of this event crackle with static, and she can't even get a proper visual of what really happened. But she does know whatever it was must have truly been strong if even those two ran...

The final holographic update is back on the moon.

The whole team has made it out unscathed. While Lydia mentally beats herself up for creating such a massive shockwave, attracting the King's attention, Fisher continuously claims it's not only her fault. He released many blasts of intimidation too.

In the back of his mind as they were trekking through Kelfar, he believed that if they accidentally ran into the two Kings, that they could handle them if necessary. Now, he's glad they found out this way instead of facing them head on...

He replays the overwhelming power his senses were just exposed to and tries to make sense of it for hours. It was something greater than just mana and divine energy. Just like the Wyvern's bones, those Kings feel as though they're superior lifeforms.

Meanwhile, Ava watches recordings of Monk proudly lining up over two hundred individual artifacts in a private room where Bri allows them to stay in the moon base for a few hours.

He walks up and down the aisles of black rocks, creating in-depth holograms to send to Alveron, and the slug's silver suit of armor walks the aisles with him to get his thoughts on the findings.

Monk mutters a few words.

"This language is far different from the Originator text back on my world... well... most of it..."

He stops at the end of one of the aisles, in front of an enormous cylinder-shaped rock full of illegible writing.

"Well, except this one. I found it beneath the Wyvern's bones. While there were many other treasures beneath it, I'm certain this is what it was protecting. It writes in the same language as a subset of texts back on the human world... My translations are rough, but I can make out the words of an eternal war, something about nobility, and lastly, the most recent etchings here are about a soldier. I believe this is pronounced..."
