Scene 3 - Thieves and Necromancers

In another part of the labyrinth, Drake sat by himself drinking a flask of wine in another safe room. He had a content expression on his face as he laughed at how smooth his plan had gone.

With over 1000 points shining brightly on his arm all he needed to do was wait the time out and he'll be able to pass this exam with ease.

'Haha! Too easy too easy! Now it's time to relax and wait out the time! Just you wait for me Mo you bastard! I shall have my revenge!’

Enjoying his moment with glee Drake had his eyes closed and didn't notice see the gray smoke entering the room. He was laughing so much that when he opened his eyes again smoke had completely covered the room.

Wide-eyed Drake tried to cover his mouth with his shirt as he started searching around his storage cube to find a mask to cover his face only to find out that the strength had left his arms.

As his body kept getting heavier to move a figure slowly walked into the room wearing a gas mask covering their facial features. The only noticeable features were their small stature and the clothes they were wearing colored black and green. clothing walked out confidently with her small chest puffed out.

If Rune, Ren, and Saren were here they would know that this person was Karrin the thief! Walking towards the struggling worm Karrin crouched down as the sleeping gas worked through his bloodstream.

With rage gritting his teeth Drake reached for Karrin neck but lacked the strength to raise his arm, “You… Bitch…”

Powerlessly falling to the floor Drake fell deeper and deeper into sleep Karrin smiled as she reached forward to drain his points, “Thanks for the donation, don’t worry I’ll leave you a way to survive.”

Draining the points of out the passed Drake's she left him with 100 points. Removing her sleave to check her number afterward a platinum number could be seen on Karrin’s arm reading 2769 talismans.

Necromancer

Glaring at the bald man above his shield Sol pulled out his sword full of bloodlust, making the bald man flinch back with some fear. But the anger over being stopped overcame the bald man's fear, “Get out of the way shortly or I'll kill you!”

Swing his fist down on top of Sol’s head Luna was about to move with her spear when suddenly Sol’s sword slashed upwards chopping the Bald man's hand off. Blood flew splashing on Sol’s head and his shield as the Bald man started to scream bloody mary.

Coldly Sol bashed his shield into the blade man's face making his face completely bloody. As the bald man fell face Sol retorted angrily, “Don't you dare look down on someone treading the path to cultivation!”

“““That's what you were angry about?!”””

Multiple people expressed surprise at Sol retort even Luna was surprised that was the reason Sol helped the orc.

The Grorc gave a smile and slightly bowed, “Thank you young one for helping me.”

“Why didn't you fight back?”, Asked Sol.

“The reason is--”

As the Orc was stating his reasoning at this time the seventy contestants had been transported a charge occurred at the tower looming over the distance.

A green hollow light appeared at the top which drew the attention of all the contestants down below. Eventually, the light disappeared and two figures appeared on the throne in its place.

It was the necromancer twins holding an arrogant demeanor as shouts of displeasure rang out the crowd.

“Let us go out you pieces of shit!”

“Come down and fight, cowards!”

“Do you dare to fight!”

The shouts kept coming to the point the brothers frowned and wave their hands causing the world's law to resend silencing the crowd in an instant as well as restricting their movements.

“Silence idiots! The game is about to begin so pay attention!”, Said the smaller brother raising his head condescendingly at the ants below them.

“Well said, little brother. Now let us tell you the rules you newbies you only have one chance to leave this world and if you do you must give up one hundred points! Those that wish to leave raise your hands.”

The laws rescinded at that point and allowed the contestants below to move finally. This time no one spoke for fear of being suppressed again.

A few seconds passed before the first contestant raised their hand then another after them. In the end, ten contestants decided to leave the world and one hundred points were subtracted from them and they were booted out of the world.

When the last one left the older brother gave a charming smile, “Now that the useless ones are out of the way you will have ten minutes to organize a defense force to face off against one hundred waves of enemy forces.

The rules of competition are that you must complete fighting the one hundred waves or only ten of you remain good luck!’’

Finishing up with the rules, the brothers disappeared into a mist of green light. With them gone a man within the contestants stood forward after a few seconds, he had charming brown eyes and hair wearing a bandana.

He shouted passionately with his arms wide, “Let's work together!”

“I refuse!”, A defiant green-haired maiden stood up and immediately rejected the brown eyed man. Wielding a large fan over her shoulder and yellow eyes flickering with arrogance she let out Qi waves showing off the power of a middle stage 7th HBR realm expert stunning the crowd.

Smirking the girl pointed with her massive fan at the brown-haired youth and tilted her head up, “Why should I listen to the words of a weakling coming out of your mouth I should be the leader!”

“Oh oh~ I should take charge instead of you.”, A slit-eyed man with gray hair appearing around the age of 20 drinking from his wine flask said as he released an aura of the peak of the 7th HBR stage.

The three figures stood against each other causing a three-way showdown as even the charming brown eyed man was in the beginning 7th HBR stage not backing down in the slightest.

When the contestants in the surroundings saw how these three were acting they knew that a bloodbath would soon commence if this pissing contest didn’t stop.

The clock was ticking.
