Chereads / Arrival to the Endless Abyss / Chapter 5 - It's Getting Unpredictable

Chapter 5 - It's Getting Unpredictable

Alex was a little disappointed that he didn't get any more information on the biography of the Karizma's set and the Lower Realm God Karizma himself, but he felt that a time would come when he would get to learn more about this Universe, and the oh so endless unknown.

Actually, many things caught his attention like the beasts that the set was made out of, or what it said about the chains of Inanis, that they were neverending. But in the end, he didn't know where these blades and chains were, so how could he use them.

It said that they are soulbound to him but what does that really mean, Alex didn't know. What he knew was that the sun was almost gone and a huge blue moon was rising from the other side of the planet.

With that information, he could confirm that this was not Earth, so his logic and knowledge of the environment and general stuff might be challenged at any point in the future. Just like the huge monster bird. Alex was getting mentally ready to see dinosaurs or some shit.

"Well it will probably get pretty cold tonight so what should I do, hmm?" Alex was talking to himself trying to figure out his next move.

He decided on cutting one of the bird's massive wings to be used like a blanket at night and a shield from the sun in the day.

Especially the second reason, because from the time he killed the bird to now he was exposed to the scorching sun and had received quite severe sunburns. He was looking like a chili pepper.

Alex placed his hand on the bloody mess of the bird and wished for it to go to one of his inventory slots, well the only one he had which was empty.

He took the wing that was not stored and put it around himself like a cape that went from his head down, almost all the way to his shoes.

The moon was extraordinarily bright, unlike the moon from Earth, and it made the whole desert brightly shine in blue. 'It is about time to get the fuck outta here.' Is what Alex thought to himself because he could see everything clearly from the moon why not walk a bit.

~And so Alexandars first journey in this totally new and unknown planet began~

- 2 hours later still in the middle of a fucking desert.

"Ahh, I can't go anymore it's too fucking cold!" Alex was bitching again. But the temperatures did drop significantly though and if he didn't have the wing of the bird around him he might have just died from hypothermia that night.

He decided to go to sleep and continue walking when he wakes up. He laid down in the sand, covered himself with the wing, and fell asleep really easily from all that accumulated exhaustion from the day.

The night passed and the day came. "Crash. Ahhhh It's too hot" Alex was on the ground drenched in his own sweat, breathing heavily. "I will set up camp now, I can't go any longer in this heat, or I will get a heatstroke."

Alex made a makeshift tent by sticking the bones of the wing into the sand bent upward like a triangle and placed another long bone that he cut off from the other wing as a support to keep the tent up and balanced.

He sat into the shade and took his last long bone from the other wing and started cleaning it of all the meat and skin and sharped it to make a makeshift bone spear.

The sun was already high up when he set up his tent. But by the time he finished his spear and satisfied his hunger and thirst, it was already sunset.

"Huh how?" Alex couldn't help but ask when he saw a different moon from the one he saw last night. It was a crimson red giant moon and just as bright as the other one.

The moon was rising as the sun was setting and Alex set off yet again with the wing around him and a meter and a half long bone spear that he used as a walking cane.

Twenty minutes had gone by and the sun had fully set and the desert was now shining in red. It was quite the sight and Alex for the first time enjoyed something in this world.

But as soon as he felt the slightest bit of joy as if on purpose a bloody red bloated hand emerged from the red looking sand and went straight for his leg. This caught Alex off guard and that is why it managed to grab him.

Alex immediately stabbed at its wrist with all his might and managed to pierce straight through the hand with the spear. To be honest, that bone spear was really hard to sharpen because the bones from the bird were really fucking tough, and that is why it took him so long.

The hand let him go, and as soon as it did Alex made a distance of ten meters in a second. He ran super fast mostly because the hand scared the absolute living shit out of him but we are not going to talk about that.

Anyway, the creature fully came out of the ground and showed its horrendous looking self. Its flesh was bloated with blood it looked like a red balloon with head-sized pimples. It had four legs and three arms all in different sizes and proportions

Alex was thinking of fighting the thing and seeing what it had but another dozen or so hands changed his mind. "Yeaaaaah. No, fuck this shit I'm out ugh ugh."

Before Alex finished his sentence he turned around and started running. He looked back to see if he was being chased and not to his surprise a hord of ugly grotesque red blobs were running straight for his ass.

They were all kind of similar but with different amounts of arms or legs and their sizes were different. The biggest one was around two meters tall and the smallest was midget certified.

But they all had one thing in common they were ugly and surprisingly fast, to the point that Alex had to sprint and not jog fast anymore.

Unfortunately for Alex that was not the end of them, as hands started coming out from the sand all across the desert.

In a minute there were thousands of these ugly shits, making the whole desert tremble as they ran toward him. There were even some giant abominations that were humongous over 6 meters tall with protruding bloated muscles.

'What the fuck am I supposed to do?' Alex thought to himself as he kept running. He was almost out of breath and his legs were giving out.

But suddenly to his surprise, he got his hopes back up. There was some kind of a shack-like building half a kilometer away from him.

When he saw that though, he heard a loud "BOOM!!!." A blob of blood exploded a few meters to his right and another few followed all around him. The abomination giants were throwing their buddies like water balloons.

At that point, the rest of the freaks were only five meters behind Alex and were catching up slowly. There was only another two-hundred-meter distance from the shack to Alex but he knew that if he didn't get enough time to get in, these things were going to have him for a midnight snack.

At that thought, Alex opened his menu, went to his equipment tab and summoned the rest of the bird which fell to the ground and took the attention of all of the freaks.

In a second as soon as they made contact with the dead body they started ripping it apart and fighting each other for a bite. Which caused the whole wave of these things to pile up on top of each other and make a huge hill of bodies.

Luckily for Alex, he managed to get to the shack and make a distance of about a hundred meters to buy himself some precious time.

"Aghh, Aghh It's locked FUUCKKKKKK!!!!!" Alex yelled while trying to open the door and catch his breath.

Because of his great charisma and his Big Brain, he got the attention of all his buddies again with that marvelous scream. They all started screaming and rushing towards him again. The abominations roared and resumed throwing their comrades like water balloons.

Alex's heart dropped to the bottom of his soul from his dumb action. He immediately got his focus back from the adrenaline and started bashing the knob with his bone spear.

As the distance of the freaks was getting closer and the bombardment of blood balloons getting more accurate. So was Alex's hope fading into oblivion.

However, all of a sudden one of the things that was thrown went straight for his ass. But an invisible wall stopped it, and the blood of the freak painted the spherical shape of the forcefield that saved his life.

Just as the freaks got right next to the forcefield and started bashing and biting. The door opened and a hunchback old man that was a head taller than Alex even with his hunch smacked him with a weird staff right on the back of his head, as Alex turned to look at the forcefield.

And just like that Alex fell to the ground unconscious. The old man with the long beard and his hunched back took Alex and put him over his shoulder just like a sack of potatoes.

The old man looked at the freaks and said to them in a squeaky high pitched voice "HIHIHI, this one is mine so all of you get nothing, wahhh, wahhh, go cry!" He was acting like a huge kid but that was just what his brain was like.

All the monsters went crazy and started screaming so hard that their vocal cords were ripping apart. But the old baby man just went inside with Alex and closed the very thick steel looking door with a "Bang."
