--- Lucius Thorn : Level 1 Guardian / Codename : None ---
It sure didn't take them long to find the cave i'm currently reside in, damn undead and their superior sense of smell! Those ugly motherfuckers still lurking outside in the forest but they seem to keep their distance to the cave which is good, the bad new is that there's only 1 thing can keep undead away from their prey and that is stronger monsters... Just my luck. So right now i'm being torn apart by these 3 choices : starve to death, eaten alive and explore a creepy cave.
"Yeah, i would rather choose to explore the creepy cave." - Lucius
I walk over to Jason's corpse, damn, even death can't take away that stupid smile of his huh? I rip the identification card in his hand and take one good last look at my best friend before turning toward the darkness of this cave. I whisper.
"[Night Vision]" - Lucius
Unlike Jason who is a level 4 [Guardian] and has 3 greater level skill, i'm just a level 1 rookie with fucking [Night Vision] and a passive [Lesser Strengthen] skill but what's special about me is my [Limitless] trait, for other people's skill mastery can only reach 100% and that's the end but not for me, although [Lesser Strengthen] doesn't have a mastery count and [Night Vision] are basically useless even if i level it up but still! You've to have faith in yourself right?... Who am i kidding, i'm worthless as a [Guardian], *Sigh*, let's just go before i become too despressed to walk.
This novel's true home is a different platform. Support the author by finding it there.
30 minutes of walking lead me to a 10 meters square... room? There's 3 doors, the left one have a dragon carved onto it while the right door have 3 demon's skulls with huge tusks decorate it. The middle door look twice the size of the other 2 with strange symbol (or letter maybe) on it... I imediately realise this place true nature.
"This is a ruin... Fuck." - Lucius
If dungeon is basically a monsters spawn point and basically a warzone, ruin is simply a test for the people, the kind of test that fill with monsters, trap and of course treasures. 10 Years ago, Wilhelm Baumeister, a level 5 [Guardian] successfully capture a ruin by himself and now he's 1 of the 5 strongest [Guardians] to ever exist. Nowadays people still risk their lives trying to conquer the ruins but no one ever came out while Wilhelm, the only person that came out alive decline every interview regarding information about ruins.
"... Should i go in?" -
Although small, there's still a chance for me to conquer this ruin and come out with the rewards, if i get cool powers then maybe i can even escape this god forsaken forest but if i fail... That's it! I have made up my mind! I'm going to conquer this ruin! Think about it, going out and hold up in this ruin both lead to my slow but painful demise while being crush by a rock may sound horrible but at least it's a quick and painless way to die so why the hell not right? Now the only thing left to worry about is which way to go... Uhmm...
After a few minutes of thinking i decided to choose the middle door, i walk over trying to push it open but it's no use, the door is as hard as a level 7 defense equipment (Not that i've ever see a real level equipment before but who care?). I keep touching every in hope to find a secret level and...
...I succeed! But apparently the level need blood to work, how do i know this you asked? Well the 7 cm long black needle just pierce my hand and suck my blood out kind of give the secret away. Oh yeah i almost forgot!
"AaaRRRrGGGggggGHHHhh" - Lucius
