Dragon King of Apocalypse

Chapter 115: Entrance of Mahal

"What a surprise their not trying to kill each other." Mutter Xu Xiaoyan as she glances around at the countless demons in front.

In a red hallway with decorative designs and ancient symbols on the wall. Were countless demons standing around as if they were waiting for something.

"I guess they really are here to challenge the dungeon."Whispered Xie Xie as he could feel the tension.

"Welcome is this your first time?" A voice rang out near them.

They all blink their eyes and turned their heads to the left to see a spectral being walking to them. The being appearance was similar to that of a human-like feature but his body was ethereal and an extra eye on their spectral forehead.

"Yes."Said Tang Wulin.

"I was right. Well, if you all have any question please do ask me. It's been my job to assist all newcomers in any way I can."Said the Spectral Being.

"Can you tell us a little about the levels?" Questioned Tang Wulin causing the spectral demon to nods his head.

"Certainly. I'm unsure if you know or heard about it but Mahal has five floors in descending order. The floors are unique between one another with their own types of mazes and challenges. Each floor there are various types of traps, curses, and even competitors that will try their hardest to get rid of you." Said the Spectral Demon.

"They aren't focused on completing the level?" Questioned Xie Xie.

"Oh they are, but that doesn't mean they won't try to get rid of any competition or try to take advantage of you. Especially when there is a chance that every demon inside may have gained a treasure from one of the rooms in the dungeon."Said the spectral demon.

"That does make sense."Said Zeref as he appeared next to Tang Wulin.

The act of plundering would allow one to undoubtedly gain resources and even fortune if they were able to do it successfully. Especially in a place where one person can't cover the entire floor and so one would just find it far easier to turn to plunder.

While this may cause problems in the future from the victims, the enticement and value of the priceless treasure in the labyrinth may be too much.

'Plus this isn't so different from survival in the regions.' Thought Tang Wulin as he recalled the harsh environment of Ignis.

"To reach a new floor, one must get to the hell gate."Said the Spectral Demon.

"Hell Gate?" Questioned Tang Wulin.

"Think of it as a gate that transports a person down." Said the Spectral Demon.

"But to get to the hell gate, one must get past the Fiends who guards the Hell Gate. Different types of fiends will guard the gate and so it all depends on your luck which one you meet." Said the Spectral Demon causes them all to not their head.

"Why are some of the demons just waiting out here?"Questioned Yue Zhengyu.

"Ahh for various reasons. Some are preparing, some are hoping to see if someone can conquer this dungeon and others are here to scout out any potential talents for the Demon Monarch."Said the Spectral Demon.

For twenty minutes they asked the spectral demon some other stuff about the Dungeon. They learned about the rumor sixth floor if one was able to clear the fifth level, which has never been done.

They also learned one can leave the level by finding the return gate which is the only way to get back. One is also advised to try and not rest in the dungeons as every being in there is trying to kill you. The spectral demon left to another group that recently came in after they were done.

"Do you know about the Demon Monarchs?" Questioned Xie Xie to Gu Yue after hearing their names for the second time.

"The Demon Monarchies, from what I'm sure you may have figured out is the five rulers of the demon world. Or more specifically the king of each region."Said Gu Yue causing everyone to nod their heads.

They more or less figure that they were the head of a huge fraction or kings of the demon world.

"...They are also the ones who can send a seed to another plane."Said Gu Yue causing all of her friends eyes to widen.

"Are you saying, they are the ones who placed the seed in Yuanen."Said Xie Xie with his expression changing and his fist clenching.

"One of them might have."Said Gu Yue with a sigh.

Yuanen Yehui body shook as she was able to finally find out how she got the seed. Yet that didn't make her feel any better.

"Why didn't you tell us this back then?" Questioned Mu Xi with a raised brow.

"Because it wouldn't matter. As the only thing that was important was the seed."Said Gu Yue but Mu Xi tilted her head.

"Wouldn't the Demon Monarchies be looking out for the seeds?" Questioned Mu Xi.

"They would, but they would be too busy fighting with each other. As each of them doesn't want the others to grow and so they would stop the other from claiming the seed." Said Gu Yue.

"Are you saying they wouldn't try to work together to invade another world?" Questioned Ye Xinglan but Gu Yue only shook her head.

"Depending on the world, one Demon Monarch and his almost infinite army of demons would be all that is needed to conquer another plane. Well from what the books said about them."Said Gu Yue.

They all fell in silence at the revelation and some information about the strength of the Demon Monarchs. While not all planes are as strong as each other, the fact that only one Monarch would be needed to conquer one was just unbelievable.

That is not even counting their almost infinite army of demons if Gu Yue words from earlier were true. Which makes it even more amazing that their own plane was able to repel the attack or at least avoided the invasion.

"Well anyway, we should begin entering the dungeon. From what that spectral demon said, we will all be split up at the start but we can meet up later."Said Tang Wulin causing them all to nod their head but then.

"We shouldn't do that until the last level."Said Tang Wulin causing their eyes to widen.

"What do you mean Wulin?"Questioned Na'er.

"This is a place that has valuable treasure and fortune. It would be a waste to not try and see if we can gain anything that could increase our strength. It would make it easier to spread out than try and find it together."Said Tang Wulin.

"I guess you are right. If this place was able to even move and entice the Demon Monarchs, then it should be worth the plunder."Said Xu Xiaoyan with a nod of her head.

"Alright let's hurry up."Said Xie Xie.

They began moving towards the entrance for the dungeon but no one notice Tang Wulin glancing back.

"You were right, that demon as been staring intensely at Yuanen."Said Zeref as he was staring at the demon behind them.

'Do you think he knows?'

"That she is the seed from the Douluo Continent? I'm not sure."Said Zeref there could be many reasons on why the demon was observing them.

"I wonder when he will make his move." Said Zeref as he stared at the demon.

Yet Tang Wulin said nothing as he continued to follow behind his friends.

'Why would she bring it here.' Thought Mahaan as he stared at the group ahead of him.

Normally he wouldn't notice or care to pay mind to anything but his task at hand. Yet, he could feel his soul trembling when he swept his gaze around and it lands on the red-haired girl.

At first thought, something was wrong at him but as he started thinking, he began to recall something Demon Monarch Alba once told him and his guards.

'I have embued you all with a piece of my seed. So you should be able to recognize and feel the seed when its awaken.'

Demon Monarch Alba did this, so it would be easier and faster for his subordinates to capture the seed for him. Alba wasn't the only Monarch who did this as all of the others did this, causing competition for the capture of the seed to be intense.

'No way is the seed in the demon world awaken or there would be more chaos. As the demon when its awaken sends off a light.' Thought Mahaan.

Which means the girl must have found the seed but hasn't raised a fuss yet. As he refuses to believe anyone who lived in the demon world, would not recognize the seed of demons.

'Although I don't know which Monarch, you serve, it matters not. With the treasures, I can gain In the dungeon and the seed I will pry from your dead body. I know my Lord will reward me handsomely.' Thought Mahaan with a cruel smirk and greed inside of him.

Yet Mahaan would have never thought that the red hair-girl didn't have the seed but was the seed that was needed to open up the gates of hell.

As the thought of someone coming to the demon world who housed the seed was beyond imaginable and unbelievable.

In front of Tang Wulin and his friends was a large chamber door with ancient symbols all around.

"Remember, we all won't meet up till the fifth level. If you believe you can't go on anymore, then take the return gate back and wait for the rest of us." Said Tang Wulin causing all of them to nod their head.

No more words were said, as they step up to the chamber door which automatically opens and then they all jump down.
