《Rise of the Undead king》Rise of the Undead king part 12
Advertisement
On our way to the basement, I asked Master Blevulpus why they were going to run alchemical tests on me. 'Jacob, you see not all can be revealed by the naked eye, not even by mine. We need these tests to determine if a mutation might have occurred after the ritual.'
'You mean I could also be a mutant?'
'Yes, exactly. You do catch on rather fast.'
We were on the ground floor now, in front of the stairs leading up. Master Blevulpus tapped 2 times with his foot and said something in a language I had never heard before.
All the steps of the stairs went downward and formed a new much longer path under the house.
'Don't worry Jacob we won't do anything too dangerous.'
This made me look at him and it evoked some stress.
'Dad, be nice to him.' She used her elbow to poke him in his ribs.
'Ahhh, Sure, I'll do the safe boring ones.'
We walked through the darkness.
'Would you mind lighting the way Vel'
'Of course father' she breathed in deeply and a strange hiss left her mouth.
It carried a green wave of translucent color in the air. Waving past the steps of the stairs and resting at or feet lighting the way.
The long row of stairs ended, and we got approached by a shadow on the ground master Blevulpus looked at it as it took on a 3d humanoid form,' it is good to see you Kriesler. How is Zarkiuz doing in his residence?' The shadow remained silent and put two thumbs up.' Ah. That pleases me, you are truly the best help I could wish for.'
The shadow shivered from pleasure hearing these words of praise.
'We will be using the laboratory for a bit.'

This time one thumb went up and he became a swift puddle of shadow again.
We resumed our way through long halls and eventually, we stood in front of a copper door with many protective runes carved in it. 'Vel, would you mind opening it, I've allowed you access after your recent achievement.'
Her eyes went big and twinkled a bit, she even stuttered cutely. 'T...t...thank you father.' She put her hand on the door and purple light came from the carvings.
'Do you like the color I assigned to you, I could change it.'
'No. It's perfect, thank you.'
The door swung open with a cranking noise, it revealed many instruments with their shapes made from different metals, bookcases filled with potions, books stacked beside them or on the ground, and in the middle of it all stood multiple laying chairs with bindings. Some had dried blood on them.

The Tower of Opportunity - Rewrite
Criminals from around the world are summoned by a mysterious being who informs them that they only have 3 months left to live unless they climb the mysterious tower that lies before them, through which they can gain another two weeks added to their lifespan for every floor conquered. They soon discover that they can harness powers that have been granted to them by this mysterious being to not only achieve victory against the enemies that they will face in the tower, but also attain their deepest and darkest desires as well. Watch our protagonist's journey through the tower as he struggles to endure the curse he bears, one which damns him to ever-repeat his climb to the top of the tower, until he succeeds. *** This is a rewrite of a story I started writing about 3 months ago which was written in the third person, and this rewrite shifts the story perspective to the first person. There will be occasional user polls to decide how the story progresses, interspersed throughout the story, and the polls that were done in the original version will still apply to the current version. Also if you have any suggestions for story ideas that you would like to see incorporated, leave a comment about it, and they might show up in the future. Lastly, I hope you enjoy the story, and thanks for reading. P.S. Thanks to gej302 for the cover art.
