New Earth- The Dungeon Of Madness 69 Arrival Of The Kings

They did not hesitate to enter the gloomy graveyard despite seeing the numerous enemies staring their way. However, as soon as they put a step in, their vision blurred as large torn pieces of cloth flew before their eyes.

Just above their head, a group of wraiths suddenly appeared and started draining the wild boars' life. The wild boars stomped the ground, trying to attack the wraith but no matter how hard they tried, they were unable to jump high enough!

The wraiths were free to continue attacking without fear of retaliation!

...

Meanwhile, Five was anxiously looking at the screen as the number of beasts entering his dungeon kept increasing. The line of Apes was long but that was mainly due to their burly size. They moved relatively slowly in a formation, like an army of trained soldiers. As there was so many of them, the ground would lightly tremble every time they took a step.

Quickly, a total of 50 Apes entered the dungeon but behind them, yet another type of beast appeared: Forest Tigers.

The Forest Tigers calmly followed behind the Apes without attacking them. They maintained their formation and calmly followed the Apes.

The rest of the dungeon became quiet as the last Wild Boar fell to one the spectral hounds' bite. Now, Five only had to focus on these beasts who were clearly stronger than the Wild Boars.

The Apes were rather tall; they were using their long hairy arms to walk just like gorillas would do. The Forest Tigers also strangely looked more disciplined, like someone had tamed them to follow the Apes.

Slowly, the number of Forest Tigers increased and reached 25. The Forest Tigers ranged from level 22 to 24. They were extremely fast such that even the barbarians were careful when encountering them.

But more importantly, behind the Forest Tigers, 2 large silhouettes appeared. One of them looked like a larger version of the Apes, the only difference was that its fur was completely white, with the exception of its fists which were pitch black. It was a level 29 Ape King.

Next to the Ape King, a larger version of the Forest Tigers was carelessly entering the place while swinging its long tail behind it. Compared to the regular Forest Tigers, this one was larger and its fur was shinier but the difference that stood out the most was that it had long saber teeth coming out of its mouth. The Forest Tiger King was a level 30 boss.

The 2 bosses were continuously grunting and roaring to themselves like they were having a conversation. Unfortunately, neither Five nor the other monsters could understand the beast language.

"Hahaha, I did not know those dirty pigs would be so stupid!! They even believed us when we told them that the Wild Boar King ordered to charge head in."

"Yes, haha! At least, they were useful in this way. They should have opened up the path a little bit! I can't wait to get my hand on that core!!!"

"Yes... Do we really have to share it with the other two?"

"Why are you thinking about that, as long as we get it, we can use it immediately! Those two would definitely die when facing that scary woman... At least, they will be injured and by that time, we would have already evolved and would not fear the Cobra King anymore!"

...

"Master... There should be a fourth type of beast..." said Ariel as she was nudged by the quiet Angela.

"A fourth type of beast?" murmured Five as he was focusing his attention on the formation of the beasts. Just like the wild boars, these beasts were also always taking the right path and before long, they would reach the labyrinth.

"Then, can you tell us what kind of beast? A bird? An aquatic beast?" asked Dreidus.

"We don't know... But please trust us that there should be another group of beasts coming..." answered Ariel.

"It's alright, there's no harm in taking some precautions... Dreidus, Lyra, you will have to deal with those 2 bosses..." said Five as he turned his attention to his 2 own bosses.

"What do you think? Which one are you more confident in dealing with?" asked Dreidus while looking at the Banshee Queen.

The latter was silent for a moment, examining the 2 beast kings. She just reached level 21 after many efforts but it seemed that she would be forced to fight another boss several levels above her own, "I think I will be able to delay the Ape King... As for defeating him... Maybe if I fight into the graveyard where I can receive the help of the other monsters?"

Dreidus shook his head, "Fighting in the graveyard is dangerous. Although you get a small buff there, it is safer to fight in presence of the death knights. You don't need to worry about defeating the Ape King, as long as you delay him long enough, I will deal with it after I finish the Forest Tiger King."

"But isn't that too risky? Even the Forest Tiger King is stronger than you..."

"Don't worry about that, I have my battle form. Remember to use your own but don't tap too much into it or you might get crazy! Try not to die but dying is better than losing control of yourself!" said Dreidus. He sounded confident and wanted to cheer Lyra but he knew this fight would be hard.

Previously, he was able to deal with 4 barbarians well above his level but that was because as a boss monster, it was normal to be able to deal with several mobs of the same level and he also had several skeletons to divide their attention. But now, he was dealing with another boss who would also have minions by its side.

"Do what you can and try not to die," said Five as he focused on the screen.

"We will also fight! At the gra.s.sy plains, we'll be able to attack safely!" said Alice. Ariel and Angela nodded.

"Alright, but be careful. Don't do anything silly and end up dying!"

...

As time went by, the group of beasts slowly made their way through the mine and reached the labyrinth. They walked into it without facing any difficulties. Dreidus commanded the remaining skeletons to move and intercept them but naturally, they were only able to delay the group of beasts by a few minutes.

Strangely, the 2 beast kings stepped out of the formation of beasts. Instead of going down the stairs, they waited for a moment at the large room at the end of the mine.

Suddenly, a small hole appeared behind the 2 beast kings. Moments later, another hole appeared and another. Very quickly, a lot of holes appeared and from them, cobras swiftly emerged while hissing.

"What took so long?" asked the Forest Tiger King.

In response, all the cobras started hissing at the two kings and after a moment, they all started to make their way down the stairs.

"mmm, it seems like we were right! There is indeed an impenetrable layer surrounding every floor!" commented the Ape King.

"It would be too easy if the snakes could just enter any floor... Where is the fun in that? I cannot wait to see who the dungeon master is..."

...

30 minutes later, the Apes finally stepped into the graveyard. Behind them, the Forest Tigers were calmly following while the Cobras were hissing among themselves. Further back, the 2 beast kings were carelessly walking through the labyrinth.

The entrance of the graveyard was filled with corpses of Wild Boars but none of the Apes cared about them. They mercilessly stepped on the corpses of their comrades before rushing towards the nearest zombies.

Just like the Wild boars, they were greeted by the wraiths and spectral hounds but this time, the Apes were able to push on their legs to jump high enough to hit the wraiths.

As for the spectral hounds, they were immediately stomped to the ground by the Forest Tigers. The Tigers were too fast but fortunately, as ghost-type monsters, the spectral hounds took reduced damage from physical attacks.

The Cobras quickly followed and started to bind the zombies while spraying their venom at the wraith that would try to attack them.

Compared to the labyrinth which had a clear path to follow, the graveyard was like an open s.p.a.ce. One just had to walk in a straight line from the entrance to reach the exit. But this time, all the monsters of the graveyard were converging towards the beasts, including the evolved zombies.

Fights were occurring all over the graveyard but it was clear that the beasts were winning. The beasts had the level advantage while the undead monsters had the numerical advantage.

However, as the two beast kings stepped into the place, they quickly tipped the balance completely in their favor. The Ape King ruthlessly pulled out the decorations and threw them at the wraith who were attacking from a safe distance. While the Forest Tiger King charged and viciously stroke the evolved zombies.

"Pouahh disgusting... The taste like rotten sh*t" roared the Forest Tiger King.

The graveyard was easily cleaned up by the beasts. Even as all the monsters were uniting to fight, they were unable to resist the absolute strength of the kings.

...

In the common room, Five was sitting alone in front of the screen projected by the dungeon core. All the other monsters needed to prepare themselves and went to the fourth floor; it would not be long before the beasts would reach them.

Five was anxiously looking at the interface. Although the graveyard failed to stop the beasts, it significantly reduced their numbers and now, 32 Apes, 17 Forest Tigers, and 12 Cobras were left. Most of the snakes actually fell after the fight of the graveyard as they stayed in contact with the Plagued Zombies for too long.

Slowly, he felt the tension building up. He quickly opened his interface to summon more monsters. After killing so many beasts, his DP balance drastically increased to 400000 DP, if he could summon a few other monsters, then he would be guaranteed to survive the trials.

Unfortunately, the system was once again a step ahead of Five.

[System prompt: Due to special circ.u.mstance, you are unable to immediately summon or resp.a.w.n any monsters]

"D*mn, looks like the system is not happy at the idea of having the dungeon masters react accordingly... They probably want dungeons to already be ready and avoid last minute works..."

He felt powerless, although he was the dungeon master, he could do nothing to protect his own dungeon and had to rely on his monsters. Although it was normal, Five did not like the idea of being unable to do anything by himself.

He anxiously stared at the screen as the beasts started going down the stairs to the fourth floor.

"D*mn... If I cannot do any changes to the dungeon and am even unable to summon any monsters, then let's see if you also thought about that..."
