《The Rise Of A Porter 》Chapter 77: Hidden Dragon
Advertisement
Arnold heard a loud cracking noise as the monstrosity, who destroyed 3 of his elite summons, fell on his knees and took it's last breath. Or so he thought.
"Don't f*cking tell me this guy is still alive after all that!" Arnold panted and so did Asterios. Even though it wasn't possible for Talos to get 'tired' even he looked exhausted after summoning an endless horde of skeletons.
"The vitals of the monsters suggest otherwise, master." Talos replied to Arnold's query.
"Dang it let's just finish it then. You ready Asterios?" Arnold looked at the minotaur, who had raised his hands in air and started bashing the Dreadnought's skull, while Arnold and Talos tried to rip out it's spine.
"Keep... at it... it's working!" Arnold's face had turned red as he tried to pull out the monster's spine. To accelerate the process he summoned all of his golems to help but it was still taking a lot of time to do so. The more they pulled on to the spinal cord, the faster Dreadnought's remaining HP decreased.
"Just... 10 HP... left!" Arnold gritted his teeth but right before he was about to yank it off, a gunshot was heard and a moment later the the spinal cord was cut off from the beasts body.
Arnold was shocked and looked towards the source of the gunshot. A man dressed in ragged cloak was standing behind the golems. He held two semiautomatic pistols in his hands and was looking at Arnold with a smug look on his face. But that wasn't all. The man had five black stars attached to his right shoulder, symbolising that he was an S ranked warrior from the White Wolves guild, the same guild whose members were killed in the stampede that Arnold had orchestrated. He used the probe skill just to confirm that his opponent was actually that strong.

___
It was a bad situation for Arnold. He was exhausted, most of his elite summons had been destroyed, Talos and Asterios were both down for the count as well... and for his lower class summons, they won't stand a chance against this guy. His stats were strictly centered to his class which was troubling. Arnold was still reading the the Rion's information when another notification appeared on his interface.
___

___
A white crystal appeared out of thin air near Rion who immediately pocketed it while still aiming one of his guns at Arnold and his summons.
'SON OF A BITCH!' Arnold cursed Rion under his breath, not only did he steal the kill he also got the [Return Crystal] which was the only way out of the dungeon and would allow them to return to Earth.

'Where the hell did this guy appeared from? I am pretty sure no one was here when the fight began... he's definitely one of those White Wolves people but they didn't have a S ranked warrior in their ranks.' Arnold thought.
"Thinking about me?" Rion smirked as he continued, "Who am I? What the hell is going on? What should I do? Blah blah blah. I'm going to tell you what will happen next, I'll use the crystal and get back to our world while you'll be stuck in this dungeon and repent for killing my teammates."
"Killing your teammates? They attacked me first! And I didn't even do anything, they were killed by the monsters!" Technically he wasn't wrong, they did die by the hands of the monsters. Well not by their hands but by their legs.
"I know very well about what you did to them, I was there at the time, hiding in shadows bidding my time to strike you down."
"So you were there and didn't help them out? Some teammate you are. No wonder you're a loner." Arnold shrugged his shoulders.
"Yeah you're right, I am a loner," Rion's mouth twitched, "But don't you worry, you'll be one soon enough as well."
Rion shot a bullet at Arnold's legs. Arnold used the [Plasma shield] to stop the bullet, but the shield shattered the second, when the bullet made contact with it and managed to hit Arnold.
"Don't look so surprised dude. That bullet was nothing special. I just used a couple of my skills while taking the shot, which made your low grade barrier useless." Rion smirked as Arnold winced in pain.
Arnold cursed Rion in pain, who proceeded to shoot down his summons at lightning speed, all of his summons were obliterated in moments, all except Asterios who was heavily injured and was unable to move.
"I'd have loved to stay with you and play a little bit longer but you see I'll have to leave now," Rion continued, "But I'd like to thank you for all the trouble you went through. I honestly thought you'd die by that monster's hands but you did better than I could and defeated it. It's thanks to you, I'll be able to leave this dungeon without breaking a sweat."
Arnold stayed quite and tried to use his ability but he couldn't even move, it was that moment he realised, he had been paralysed, he looked at his status and the system confirmed that.
"The paralysis effect is quite strong don't you think?" Rion smiled once again and used the return crystal to activate the portal right in front of Arnold. "As a reward for helping me, I'll let you in on a secret, killing this beast isn't the only way to get out of the dungeon, but it was the easiest one. Haha. Adeus patife." (Author's note : Adeus patife means goodbye rascal in Portuguese.)
Arnold tried with all his might to drag his body towards the portal but it was all in vain. He couldn't move nor could he use his spells to help him out. He could only watch Rion leave as the portal in front of him closed.
"NO! NO! NO!"

Digital Haven
The modern world fell into a deep depression, and few options remained for the suffering lower class. The global economy crumbled under a growing energy crisis and overpopulation led to the creation of a virtual frontier known as Teurilia, the first full immersion virtual reality. Teurilia introduced a world of adventure and exploration leaning on human nature for greed and power. The world, built to be a realistic role-playing game offered players nearly unlimited freedom and became wildly popular around the world within weeks of its initial release. Originally intended to be a temporary relief from the real world, the world’s governments soon realized the potential of virtual existence with the release of technology to permanently transfer consciousness from physical bodies into virtual ones. Supported by economists of the world and political power from the United Nations, Teurilia received limitless funding to support the migration of millions of new citizens. Eric Williams like many low-class citizens immediately saw the potential new life in Teurilia offered and signed up for the migration program within the first week of its announcement. Eric always dreamed of grand adventure and Teurilia was his golden ticket. This is his story…

Indomitable Marvel
-This is a wish-fulfillment story that is in the MCU universe and will follow the MCU in my own way. The goal is to blend my story in and around the MCU. -It will be a while, a very long while before I get to the actual MCU storyline. -The story may seem a bit slow depending on what you're after. -Updates will be slow. -He does not start op. -Be warned I'm a below-average writer, I need to work on my details and wording, and probably everything else. Expect quality fluctuations. -((( Useful feedback is much appreciated. ))) -This will have a harem since my last story didn't have one. --Expect badly written lemon scenes. They will be marked for an easy skip for those who don't want to read it. If you can handle all that, then welcome aboard. -The Asgardian Theoric is about to get a second chance. [[[ https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Theoric_(Earth-616) ]]] -The story starts before the MCU where he will grow his abilities on his way to becoming indomitable. -1st volume: Prologue -2nd volume: Troll War - (ch.12-59)-3rd volume: Hidden Forces - (ch. 60-???)-4th volume: Olympians-5th volume: Mutants-6th volume: MCU-7th volume: Darkness???-8th volume: ??? ___________________________________To help answer some questions people might have. - No beast companions and as of right now no plans for beast companions. (But then again Hela does have Fenris...)- No kingdom-building,- The beginning of the story puts a lot of people off because I didn't go the normal route people would like, and they don't tend to like the troll arc.- He also starts a little rash and seems a little weak because his powers easily drain him, some of this is explained later though and fixed by Gaea, but many miss this and only concentrate on the fact that he isn't being and doing what they think he should.- I should also explain that he has some memories that were locked away and then deleted because of his rashness. This was simply a way to end the whole locked memory thing, the Acanti soul was a plot point to give him future memories of the MCU, beyond that it served no more purpose so I got rid of all the other useless knowledge, He was in no way nerfed as some would like to believe.- I made him a little more emotional then I would like at the beginning, it was my attempt at trying to give him a personality after being criticized for the lack thereof in my last story. - Ruthless? I don't think so, I'm going more the route of a fair Mc. He'll do more of an eye for an eye type stuff, gender does not matter to him when it comes to this.- While the harem isn't the end all be all goal, it's true that he's going around getting women.- I do have a story beyond the harem though and will not focus too heavily on the harem beyond the obvious. Mostly he just goes around sleeping with them and beyond that is anyone's guess whether they stick around or not, I do try and make it feel a little more real, but it is a harem. ___________________________________ -I have also posted this story on Royal Road and Wattpad.

Cosmic Bulldozing Team
"Welcome to the Cosmic Bulldozing Team! CBT for short... references to any other acronyms are purely coincidental." Breve has one exceptional gift: an inborn potential for Resurrection magic. The cost? Every other healing spell she casts is absolutely paltry in comparison to the rest of her race, making her family outcasts within her society. That potential alone, however, classes Breve as a Rank A Healer. By what metric? Well, by the crazy elf lady who’s about to destroy her planet. Wait, what? Here's the low-down: her planet has been targeted by the Cosmic Bulldozing Team, which, as their name suggests, operates in the apparently lucrative business of destroying planets. This comes with the unfortunate side-effect of also murdering everyone who lives there. And Breve would’ve been killed, too, if she hasn’t unintentionally passed their audition for a new healer. Unwillingly saved by the people who just annihilated everything Breve ever knew and loved, she’s dragged into a massive spaceship before, without a moment’s reprieve, being assigned missions to sally forth and commit the same atrocities on other planets. And with Breve's home lying in a pile of celestial bedrock, it seems that cooperating is the only option. And she will cooperate, or so help her, they'll send her back whence she came: into the void of space, where the smashed rubble of her planet now drifts along. "Buckle in, rookie: you've got some planetary destruction ahead of you." (Updates every 2 days.)
