Level Up: Voidwalker

Chapter 151: Level Three



Chapter 151: Level Three

After the fierce battle on the mountainside, Atlas pressed on while eliminating the remaining Cave Bears. He unleashed a relentless barrage of magic, his spells erupting in powerful explosions that tore through the advancing swarm of Savage Bears.

The force of the blasts sent the monsters hurtling through the air, their bodies smashing against the rugged cliffsides with thunderous crashes. Atlas was happy with the result and quickly checked the total.

[Savage Void Bear – 632/5000]

[Cave Void Bears – 32/2000]

[Brute Void Bears – 5/10]

[Void Bear Queen – 1/1]

'Won't be long now until I fight the Void Bear Queen,' he thought before continuing until he came to an arena, but something was off.

Atlas glanced around and soon realized it was twice as big as the others he fought in. While standing there, the gate opened, and five Brute Void Bears rushed out. The monsters instantly launched their attacks.

'Oh shit!' he internally panicked while using Void Step to dodge the large claws and snapping jaws.

While this happened, Atlas started countering with his blades and magic, causing the Brute Bears to shudder. Void Blasts and Void Barrages removed one of the monsters while he plunged Nightblade into another skull.

'Two down, now two to go,' Atlas mused with a smile full of excitement.

Thanks to his attacks, two bears remained, causing Atlas to use Void Guard to block a swipe that sent him flying backward. He crashed into the arena's wall just as Savage Void Bears charged forward.

This made Atlas yelp as he struggled to his feet, but pain shot through his body, causing him to think, 'Regeneration isn't quick enough. The bears will be here in a few seconds.'

Atlas raised his hand before casting Void Bomb at the incoming enemies. As he drove his blades into the ground, the spells connected with the monsters, causing a devastating explosion that shook the arena.

A massive dust cloud engulfed everything as Atlas dismissed Void Guard and didn't see any monsters. While standing there, something told him to move, which he did by casting Void Step to appear a few meters away, only to see a Savage Bear crash into the stop he was just in.

'That was close,' Atlas thought before casting Void Arrow into the monster's skull.

The azure projectiles brought the remaining bears down just before he cast Void Bomb at the three remaining Sub-Bosses, which sent them back into the Void Realm as motes, signaling that Atlas won the arena battle.

After that, he removed his helmet to let the fresh air hit his face while checking the Void Bear total.

[Savage Void Bear – 57/5000]

[Cave Void Bears – 0/2000]

[Brute Void Bears – 0/10]

[Void Bear Queen – 1/1]

'Not long now, I could complete Level Two on this run,' Atlas pondered excitedly as a notification popped up.

[Well done, Voidwalker! You cleared all the monsters and now have to defeat the Void Bear Queen to unlock them for use in the outside world. Good luck with your boss fight]

Following that, he continued through the mountains and finished the last fifty-seven Savage Void Bears before battling the last Brute Void Bear, which was easy for him now. Atlas continued through the level unbothered until coming to a massive arena that stretched high into the sky.

He looked at it and thought, 'I wonder how big this monster is, but I'm so close to moving onto Level Three.'

Atlas stepped onto the marble floor to have a shield circle the arena and a gate on the opposite end open. Seconds later, the ground started to tremble as the Void Bear Queen rushed out, letting out a deep roar that made his blood run cold.

The monster resembled a short-faced bear from Earth's ancient history but was much bigger and more ferocious. It was the size of an elephant and built like a tank. Atlas felt a chill run down his spine as he scanned the newcomer using Void Sigh.

[Void Bear Queen]

[Rank: C+]

[Boss of the Void Realm's Level Two]

[Keep moving and use explosive magic]

He shook his head and prepared to fight, casting three Void Bombs at the queen as she barrelled towards him like a tank. Atlas readied himself as the projectile connected with the body of the monster.

Explosions erupted and shook the arena's ground, but it slowed the monster down, causing Atlas to dodge the first swipe of the bear's giant claws just as he spammed Void Bullets into its torso.

When the projectile bit into the skin, it caused the Bear Queen to roar in pain and start wildly swinging at him. Atlas managed to dodge most, but one hit him and sent him flying across the arena.

He regained his balance in mid-air and landed smoothly on his feet. Without missing a beat, he unleashed a series of Void Blasts that struck the bear, causing it to roar in pain. As the monster charged toward him, Atlas nimbly dodged its attacks and swiftly slashed at its vulnerable spots.

While Atlas managed to avoid most attacks, some did hit, which sent him skidding back and caused his body to shake due to the impact. He let Regeneration work as he rushed in and stabbed the bear in its knee before blowing it away using Void Bullet.

The Void Bear Queen dropped to the ground with a crash as a woman's voice sounded, 'You little shit Voidwalker! You're not like the last Master, that's for sure.'

Atlas stopped attacking and stared at the monster that was struggling to get up with a missing leg, but that's when pain racked his body, causing him to drop to his knees while looking at his missing left arm.

'A trade boy, you took my leg, so I cut off your arm,' the bear queen said with a chuckle.

When Atlas heard this, he was fuming and looked into the creature's red eyes before laughing as he hobbled over to her, ''That was exciting; I enjoyed our fight, Queen Bear. Do you have a name?''

The monster looked at him before her voice appeared in her mind, 'My Master used to call me Ursula. If you don't mind, call me that.'

Atlas nodded with a smile as he finished off the bear with a swift swipe of his blade, bringing Level Two to an end.

[Well done! You completed Level Two and can move on to Level Three. You may use the three Void Bear Option options]

[Would you like to move onto Level Three Voidwalker?]

Atlas nodded in agreement, and his surroundings shifted to reveal a massive plateau extending over a turbulent sea. Confusion etched on his face, he approached the edge and looked down, only to feel a chill run down his spine.

'Why does this place look like an arena?' he wondered, casting a wary glance around only to realize there was nowhere to hide.

Once Atlas calmed himself down, he pulled up the monster total he needed to deal with.

[Void *****– 1000000/1000000]

[Void ******* *****– 500000/500000]

[Void ***** ********* – 100000/100000]

[Void ***** ****– 1/1]

''What are these ridiculous numbers? One million!'' he fumed.

Following that, Atlas heard running, which alarmed him as fog descended on the plateau, cutting off his vision. That's when he pulled out the True Sight goggles and saw his new enemy.

Stone humanoids shaped into all kinds of horrifying renditions charged at him. Atlas dodged the lunge of an angel-looking monster before blasting it away using Void Blast while scanning another.

[Void Golem]

[Rank D+]

[Can mold themselves into horrifying figures to scare you]

Atlas noticed the Golems were made from a dark bluish stone and had glowing red eyes as they charged forward like the first. He bobbed and weaved around them while using Void Bullets and Void Blasts.

'I think I can only use magic on them as my blades cannot damage them,' Atlas thought as Nightblade and Deepforge bounced off one Golem who tackled him.

The wind was knocked out of him as they crashed to the ground. When this happened, he cast Void Wave to destroy the monster and give himself some space, but he was shocked when a swarm of Golems charged at him.

Atlas was backed into the corner of the Plateau, causing him to act more carefully as he spammed spells, but he was growing tired just as one of the Golems moved quicker than he thought it could and landed a hard punch in his chest, which dented his armor.

He was thrown over the side of the Plateau and fell into the water below, only to wake up on the ship balcony as a wave smashed into the hull below. Atlas was confused and remembered he was on a ship to the Nivaria Continent.

While sitting there, Atlas pulled out some chocolate and started eating while pulling up the Level Three monster total.

[Void Golem – 999977/1000000]

[Void Warrior Golem – 500000/500000]

[Void Golem Commander – 100000/100000]

[Void Golem King – 1/1]

'This will take some time, but I do have some powerful spells to learn that will help clear the overwhelming numbers,' Atlas mused while chewing on some chocolate as the two moons lit up the sea below.

After that, he checked his statues to see if he had gained anything from all the fighting in the Void Realm.
