Everyone Else Has a System-Chapter 259 Forgotten Island: Dungeon Of Chaos

My target was the dungeon of Chaos, located at the edge of Netherrealm and looking at the place where Theia brought me. It didn't seem too far from here.

Walking towards the direction that I deemed correct, it took me about a couple of hours before my destination came into my vision.

It was a floating island bounded by chains from all directions, with the plane higher than where I was standing. It looked like a dark, ominous area where only death looms, but for me…

"Home fucking sweet HOME!!!" I shouted as I jumped on one of those chains and ran towards the floating island with a cheerful smile plastered on my face.

As I was sprinting towards the floating island, minions like flying monsters noticed me and began flying towards me with a screeching noise, attracting the rest of the monsters around the area as well.

Each of the monsters were at least SS-Grade, with some even being SSS-Grade.

Made me chuckle a little as I kept sprinting as they flew towards me at an insane speed and reached closer to me before I realised. Watching them reach so close to me, I made a surprised look before my eyes turned white and a bright light came out of it, erasing all the monsters from my front.

I then took out a sword from my dimensional pouch and coated it with Light and Life magic before I began jumping from the chains to one of those monsters, then to another and then to another… I kept killing them one by one until most of them were either dead or just flew away.

Once I realised that I can't jump freely anymore, I jumped back to the chains and stood there for a few moments. Observing the monsters running away, I smiled a little before turning my eyesight back at the floating island.

My view then came back to the Netherrealm around me. I was halfway up looking at everything that was below me… and honestly; the sight was breathtaking.

I just ran my hands through my hair, settling them back down as the air was blowing quite heavily up here. I smiled even more before, once again, I began dashing back up to the floating island.

It took about 30 more minutes, but I successfully reached the top of the floating Island and as soon as I reached the top, I saw another forest in front of me, this one much more defined than the one below. I also saw a couple of broken buildings here and there…

Even before, in the previous timeline, I wondered how all these buildings came here? Actually, I know where they came here from. It was from Planet Vermillion itself. I mean, the records I found among the ruins told me the long-lost history of various races. There existed even some special races that could control the flow of space and time, which I believed was a bluff, to be honest.

Though how did they come here? That was the real question from my side. Still, if I couldn't find the answer after living for months here, I doubt I could do it this time. This time, I just came here to grab what I believe is mine.

Walking deep inside the forest, I soon reached the place where the gate to the dungeon was located. It was a strange place, where the central building, which held the gate, was floating in between broken walls like buildings. I looked around to see if there was anyone else here, but luckily, no one was here.

Even the monsters weren't here, which was both odd and nice. I then moved into the foot length deep water and kept walking towards the floating central building before I checked around to recall the mechanism to open the gate. 𝒇𝘳ℯℯ𝚠𝙚𝑏𝗻𝑜ѵ𝑒𝙡.co𝑚

It took about 15 minutes to actually recall how I opened it last time, and I sighed as I finally remembered everything.

'This damn puzzle… well, at least it will be faster than last time,' I thought as I moved out of the area, into the forest and started channelling dark energy into the special orbs hidden within the forest.

Actually, these orbs, and even some more levers, etc, were there connected to the main dungeon gate, which requires a lot of wits and running before opening the gate. Some required fighting, while others required pure wits. There were traps at most of the corners on this whole island and even though it looked all random, there was a pattern to it.

One by one, I moved from one place to another, clearing all the obstacles and everything along with it. I made sure to not miss anything, and it took time honestly… I kind of wasted about half a day to open everything that needed to be opened and close everything that needed to be closed.

Once I was done, I reached towards the gate area only to find that the floating island had a stair made up of light coming from its doorway directly to the bottom of my foot. I smiled with a chuckle as I moved inside, up those stairs one by one, while the dungeon seemed like a small building. In fact, it was a magic portal that took me to another special area.

That area had a total of 100 floors, with more monsters, traps and special puzzles to solve before one can reach the very bottom of the dungeon where that old man is sleeping, guarding the weapons.

Last time I visited this place, it took me about 10 months to reach the bottom where I had to spend another 2 months before I finally realised how to clear it. I just hope I can do it in less than 3 months this time.

"So close, yet so far," I muttered as I entered that gate which only someone below SSS-Grade can enter. Different dungeons had different requirements to enter, so compared to others, it was a bit more stricter… however the rewards were equally worth it, so it was fine in the end.

"Let's begin then," I muttered before entering the dungeon.
