Chapter 82 Entering The Labyrinth.
Chapter 82 Entering The Labyrinth.
Leaving the angry Alice fuming. Shin went to his room as he started thinking about his plans for tomorrow. "They are not bad," Shin muttered as he thought about Simon and Elena.
<strong>[Simon Adger]</strong>
<strong>[Level - 31]</strong>
<strong>[Age - 20]</strong>
<strong>[Special ability - Hammer King(B)]</strong>
<strong>[Trait - Friendly, Caring, and Strong Willpower.]</strong>
<strong>[Elena Adger]</strong>
<strong>[Level - 36]</strong>
<strong>[Age - 18]</strong>
<strong>[Special ability - Ice Princess(S)]</strong>
<strong>[Trait - Confused, Sad, Caring, Angry, and Strong Willpower.]</strong>
Shin smiled seeing the Hammer King B rank and Ice Princess S rank.
"Simon's trait is Just as I expected."
"But I can't understand Elena. Just what is she thinking?"
Shin stopped thinking about that and continued training his skills while preparing for tomorrow. As he read all the information he could get about the Labrinth.
Like that, another uneventful day of training ended.
***
Labyrinths are a lot different from dungeons. Although they also consist of monsters and resources. But they are not the same.
Dungeons usually have the same species of monsters on every floor they consist of, but that's not the case for labyrinths.
Labyrinths can have different types of monsters on different floors. So the difficulty is very high. They are more dangerous than dungeons.
Labyrinth had its own rules and the one who clears them gets the reward, which is far more generous than any dungeon could provide.
You can enter the dungeon through the big gate. And can exit using the exit gates which can be found on each floor.
The labyrinth Shin and the others are going, had 10 floors.
This dungeon had a rule. In which one party could enter at a time. So the others won't interfere. This was a lot better for Shin, who wanted to fight those monsters without any
interference.
The next morning, Alice and Shin took a taxi to the city center, where the labyrinth has appeared. As they arrived, Shin made a call to Simon asking where he was. Simon replied.
[We will be there in a few minutes.]
Shin ended the call and relayed the news to Alice that they will be arriving soon. Alice nodded her expressionless face in agreement.
She was really sad when she heard Simon and Elena will be there with them. But she could only console herself.
She will show that bitch Elena that she could never have a chance with Shin. Alice was determined.
As they arrived there. This new sight of the city center made Shin fascinated. This wasn't what he had in mind. This place had a lot more people than he could have ever imagined.
The last time he was here he only got to see the blood, monsters, and dead bodies of people. As he saw the people there chatting happily. The memory of Shin overlapped with the people who were wailing, crying, cursing, and begging for mercy. On that cursed day.
"Why did I have to remember that now?" Shin sighed and closed his eyes to not think about that anymore.
They saw the enormous, large structure in front of them, which they had only seen on television, on phones, and online. It was magnificent.
It gave off a majestic feeling while being surrounded by a lot of people, mainly reporters, military, government agents, Awakened Association agents, and many big groups.
A lot of parties were making their preparation for raiding the labyrinth.
When Shin saw the awakened associations people, noting the names of parties and observing them. He had a feeling that they are here to recruit people and he may have not wanted to get involved with them.
While waiting for Simon and Elena. They heard a lot of people chatting nearby.
"Those Kobolds are gross."
"Yeah, man, I can feel you. Their pink bodies and that ugly-ass face. They look as disgusting as goblins."
"Do you think we can enter the second floor now?"
"Like hell, you can. You can't even face 10 Kobolds alone, and you're thinking about going to the second floor."
"Yeah, I know, but I'm level 25, you know, at least I can be a little help with the party."
"Well, you can always try. Just don't die."
Shin turn his eyes from that useless chatter and he noticed. A group of people taking monster parts to a van. They had dirty clothes on them. It was obvious from a look that they were covered in Monster blood.
"Are they part of cleaning or dismantling agencies? I think that might be the case." Shin muttered. As he closed his eyes while waiting for Simon and Elena.
A few minutes later, a boy with a bulky build and red hair and a doll-like girl with black hair and purple eyes arrived.
As Shin waved his hand. Simon and Elena made their way forward towards Shin.
"You are finally here," Shin said and sighed while looking at Simon and Elena.
"Why are guys not in the line? We could have saved a lot of time." Simon shook their head thinking now they had to start at the end of the line and it will take a lot of time.
Shin frowned hearing Simon's words.
"What are you talking about?"
"Isn't that obvious? There are a lot of parties entering the Labrinth in turns. So we will have to wait for hours now." Simon explained while sighing.
Simon turned his head and noticed something.
"The last party is going to come out soon. We will have to wait 10-15 more hours now seeing that so many people are here." Simon said dismissively.
Shin understood Simon's worry and smirked.
"Well, we are not going to stand in the line," Shin said while smirking.
"What are you talking about? Do you think we could cut in line when so many people and authorities are present here?" Simon uttered while not liking Shin's idea.
"Do you want to stand in line for hours?" Shin asked as he narrowed his eyes on Simon.
"There's no way I would like that," Simon replied.
"Then it's settled. Let's go." Shin smiled as he started directly making his way towards the Labrinth. Others followed after him thinking about what he had planned to do.
But soon Simon's eyes widened in fear Shin didn't do anything and was just walking towards the Labrinth as if he was taking a stroll.
'Don't tell me he just directly wants to go inside skipping the line?'
He wanted to punch Shin and beat his ass out for this stupid idea. But he stopped as he thought of something.
Why is no one stopping them? So many people are here and no one said anything when they are skipping the line under everyone's gazes.
As their steps got closer to the labyrinth Simon started sweating.
'Just what is going on?' They were just 10 steps away from the gate but no one obstructed them as if they were invisible.
Shin stopped as he saw the yellow color above the slate. Indicating that the people inside are coming out.
This slate indicated how many floors have been cleared or if is anyone inside there or not. Red means people are still fighting inside the labyrinth. Yellow means that they are going to come out. Green means that the new party is available to go inside Labrinth.
The yellow color was indicating that the people inside are now using exit gates to come out of the labyrinth, so it was time for another party to go inside.
As people started coming out, with their worn-out bodies, blood, and damaged equipment. Shin made his way towards the gate before the other party could.
Simon's heart was beating very fast when Shin and the others touched the labyrinth gate. Before the other party could enter, they vanished from there and the red light emitted from the top of the slate indicated that another party has already entered the dungeon, which shocked many people and confused them.
Mainly the party which was about to enter the labyrinth. Did it malfunction? That was the thought of many people who saw this abnormal sight.
They had been waiting to enter the dungeon for hours and now they weren't able to. They were frustrated.
Even the authorities were shocked and speechless. 'Maybe some people are still inside.' Many thought that it might be the case as they glanced at the party that came out with questioning gazes. As much as it confused others. The party which came out of the labyrinth a moment ago was also confused.
Just what was going on?
They don't think anyone was left behind and no one was there before they entered the Labrinth.
Murmurs started among the people there and soon this news made its way everywhere and became another hot topic.
***
As Simon found himself inside the labyrinth. He couldn't help but shout at Shin.
"What the hell was that?"
"Can you stop shouting? It's not your home we are inside a labyrinth." Shin said with an irritated face.
Simon noticed his mistake and asked softly.
"So what did you do?"
Shin smirked and said.
"I made all of us invisible."
