Chapter 1248 The last floor
What was the full power of nether? What was the extent of a necromancer's abilities? How would a truly powerful Lich King fight?
More importantly, what happened when one continued progressing on the path of nether? Would they become as powerful as the god of death, able to crush lives and souls at their will? Could they unravel the very fabric of life and soul and alter the cycle of reincarnation?
Liam shuddered as his mind wandered to distant places. He felt as if stepping into the undead world would open a brand new path for him, a door into a vault that he currently did not have access to.
Despite the risks and the other pressing concerns that weighed heavily on his mind, a part of him couldn't help but want to step into that world and see what the undead empire had to offer.
He had faced a few lich kings when the undead tried to invade their planet, but Liam had a feeling that the lich kings of the undead empire's main force would be completely different opponents.
They were beings who lived and breathed in nether for countless years, something his lifespan wouldn't come close to. Just how terrifying would those powerful entities be?
Liam's heart sped up as his mind swirled with numerous questions. He took a deep breath and set them aside to clear his mind. However, the next second, once again insecurities plagued his thoughts.
What if the key to him becoming truly strong and unlocking the full power and potential of his soulmancer class and necromancer class lay in him stepping feet on the undead empire and the nether rich worlds?
Liam closed his eyes and stood on the spot as he found himself unable to make any decision. There were too many uncertainties for him to make any concrete plans.
After a while, he sighed and decided to drop the matter for the time being. It was too risky. Liam had already purchased an information packet on the major forces of the Xicta sector, the sector their world apparently belonged to. It would be better to make any decision after going through that information packet carefully.
Liam skimmed through the rest of the teleportation locations and then closed the screen. The first thing he had learned from this visit was that he had some options for tempering himself, not too many but also not too few.
The second thing was that these opportunities came at a great cost and were also extremely risky. He would have to put his life on the line if he were to teleport to any of these locations.
Liam closed the system interface, nodded at the fairy, and then prepared to head to the last floor. He would have to come back here after having thought out his future plans carefully.
As the group was walking back through the floor, Liam paused and looked at his group. "You three should stay here for some time and train. There are fighting arenas, tamed beast battle arenas, and some other things like that. You should fight and get some exposure."
The good thing was that these arenas allowed two parties to duke it out without the risk of death. Naturally, injuries were still a concern but one cannot improve if they were afraid of a few injuries.
Rey, Madan, and Lan Deming nodded. After coming here to this new world and seeing everything in the system shop and experiencing how truly insignificant they were, the three were already restless. Liam's words were enough to fuel their determination as they clenched their fists resolutely.
This was a godsent opportunity for them to train and improve, not to mention make some much needed money. For the past year, the three of them have made a lot of progress but still they felt as if they were up against an invisible barrier that they couldn't break.
This was their chance to overcome that barrier.
Another thing that was abundantly clear was just how poor they were. Liam transferred some funds for the three of them to start with and he had also purchased a lot of items for them but it was nowhere close to what the system shop offered for their growth.
But if they played their cards right, they would be able to earn a lot in this floor.
Rey and Madan especially were locked onto the tamed beast fights. Since they were both beast hunters, this was a unique opportunity for them. Lan Deming was more interested in the PVP battle to hone his skills.
However, to everyone's surprise Liam did not participate. "Bro with Luna…" Rey started but Liam shook his head. "You guys go ahead first. I want to check out the last floor and train for a bit before I come back here." He then left alongside Dante and the fairy.
Dante gave a disdainful look at the three as he walked away. What could three country bumpkins possibly do in a place like this?
He walked along with Liam as they reached the top most floor of the system shop. Liam paused as a system screen sprang up in front of him giving him a list of options.
