Chapter 230: Doomed

Ferexa, Hemakel, and Athan ran in different directions.

Five beasts went after Athan, three beasts went after Hemakel, and the other three went after Ferexa.

" FUCK! " Athan cursed and ran in a zig-zag position and used the remaining statues in the hall to block their attacks barely. He couldn't use his primal or genesis energy, so he couldn't use any spells to conjure wings or make him run and dash faster.

Fortunately, he could be safe by hiding behind the other beast statue, but the beasts closed on him real fast, and shit happened.

*BOOOOM*

A snake-like beast with two tiny wings was super fast and released a crescent dark orange attack from its tail that hit Athan on his abdomen.

Fortunately, The purple aura that coated his body protected him. However, he was still damaged internally due to the tremor of that attack.

That crescent dark orange slash attack was intensely vibrating with another kind of attribute that sent shockwaves to his internals as he sprouted a mouth full of blood.

He decided to not hold back and directly used his Geno frame: Purple Monarch.

A majestic shining purple armor covered his body with cool white lining and patterns. Exquisite light purple armors also wrapped his hands and legs, and his shoulders had curved purple guards with dark purple gemstones on them.

Athan didn't waste anytime and directly started to slaughter the beasts because he wanted to save as much geno energy as possible.

With just his shockwaves of him dashing forward, The snake behind him was obliterated by a purple wave.

In the next second, Athan killed the other four beasts in front of him by directly dashing through their bodies.

In the next three-second, He dealt with the other six beasts as Ferexa and Hemakel's jaw dropped to the ground, and they felt thousands of horse stomping their heart constantly.

Athan didn't pay them any heed and walked towards a place where he killed a beast because one of them dropped a key and a cube.

[ Since you have successfully gathered the three keys, You will be teleported to a new chamber of doom. ]

Right after this voice reverberated everywhere, Three of them disappeared and appeared in another hall.

In the middle of this hall were thirty doors in a circular pattern.

[ Use the three keys to open three doors. One of the doors leads to the end of this dungeon and directly to the treasure hall, and one of the doors leads to the ultimate doom. The other twenty-eight doors will lead you to random chambers of doom. ]

Athan frowned hearing this and threw the keys towards Ferexa, who caught it with confusion, " What do you mean by this? "

" I am not opening any doors. You can decide which door to open. Also, Don't open them now and wait until I am done. "

Saying this, Athan sat down crossed-legged and started to recover his geno energy.

" Hey! What about my reward? Could you give me my cube? " Hemakel suddenly remembered that he had yet to get his reward and spoke in a slightly dissatisfied tone.

Athan took out a cube from his soul realm and gave it to him. They can't use this reward right now anyway. If Athan's guess was correct, This cube could help him partially or wholly finish the first stage of the Trinity Source plane: Primordial Palace Shift.

While Athan was recovering his geno energy, Tiana and others struggled a bit in the most dangerous zone on the third-level battlefield.

They don't have unlimited energy like Athan, so they had to move and use their abilities carefully while fighting the Natural-disaster grade beasts.

Ten days later...

" Alright, Start opening the doors. " Athan stood up after his geno energy was recovered and spoke.

Ferexa and Hemakel nodded before Ferexa threw one key towards Athan, " Since there are three keys, we should use one each. I don't know why you are rejecting it, but the keys are three, and we are also three, so that's how we will roll. "

Athan frowned for a moment, but then he shrugged and accepted the key.

" Alright, You two open the doors you selected first. "

All doors looked the same, so there wasn't much to judge based on appearance, like the beast statues in the previous hall.

Hemakel went towards a door and put the key in the door's keyhole.

Right after that, the door slowly opened and revealed a portal inside it. Along with it, A voice also reverberated.

[ Chamber of Doom:- Distortion Doom, Time Limit Survival ]

After that, Ferexa opened a door, and the same thing happened. It also opened slowly and revealed a black portal inside it.

[ Chamber of Doom:- Nightmare Doom, Find a way out within a limited time frame or face death. ]

" Hey, you two. Why don't we enter one of these two doors? "

" No! "

" No! "

Both Ferexa and Hemakel spoke at the same time. Ferexa shook her head and said, " The time limit chamber of dooms are worst. You also took your time to rest in the previous hall, and we guessed that it's likely related to your power. Do note that to clear this whole thing and get out alive, we three need to work together. "

Hemakel also nodded while creasing his red eyebrows, " You seem like you don't have any soul abilities since you didn't use any until now, and if you run out of that strange power in the time limit doom chamber, we will face doom for real. "

Two of them can't pass any of those chambers on their own if Athan ran out of his power because from what they experienced until now, The difficulty is increasing each time they pass a doom chamber.

Hearing their reasons, Athan nodded and thought that what they said made sense.

" Alright, I'll also open a door. "

He walked towards a random door and inserted the key inside the keyhole.

But right after putting the key inside the keyhole, Athan's whole body tremble along as the most extreme danger bells rang inside him.

In an instant, He entered inside the special space.

This door didn't open as slowly as others but a bit fast, and right after it opened, A dark orb shot out from it before it went towards Ferexa.

Ferexa hurridly used all of her physical powers with a face full of terror as her body shined and created a defense of dense crystals that covered her body as thick crystal shields also produced from her hands in front of her.

But disregarding all of those defenses, The dark orb entirely consumed Ferexa, and after one second, the orb disappeared.

Of course, There was no Ferexa as well because she was likely.....doomed.

Hemakel stupidly stood with shock, but one could see despair slowly flooding in his eyes.

Athan also came out from the special space with a speechless expression and muttered, " I told you we should have entered in one of those doors. "

" DAMN IT! HOW WILL WE SURVIVE NOW? NO...HOW WILL I SURVIVE NOW? " Hemakel roared in desperation as he looked at Athan. According to him, Athan could leave as he pleases so he was already in despair thinking about what will happen to him.

Athan frowned because unlike what he said to them, He obviously can't leave as he pleases.

Now this is truly a deep shit situation.
