"What the actual heck??!!!"
At an inconspicuous corner was a large square hole in the ground and inside it was a fleet of stairs leading down.
Are you seriously saying that there were stairs leading here up and I had to climb a 50 ft tall mountain like a mad woman just to get here?!
Chima frowned, her limbs and stomach were still aching from the climb.
She huffed and started down the stairs to see where it led and it's entrance, so she wouldn't have to climb up the mountain again.
The stairs were spiral and obviously not naturally made and she wondered if it originally designed by the game like this or someone did it.
When she looked down, it was a thick and echoing darkness staring back at her.
The stairs didn't have anyplace to rest her arm to steady herself incase of falling and the stairs were carved in the middle of the place away from the walls.
But still even if she fell, nothing that serious would happen to because of the character she chose.
She had walked for half an hour or so when all around her in the dark unknown depts, she spotted dozens of pairs of bright red eyes.
Chima was creeped out because it seemed they were all directed at her as chills filled her cartoonated body.
They gradually became numerous as Chima climbed down quickly yet discreetly.
From above she sighted a small light below most likely being the outside.
She quickly made her way down and out of the stair room.
She moved back a few steps to get a clearer view of the mountain top, and looked at where the doorway was located.
She was surprised because it wasn't very discreet, infact it was literally just open and stuck out like a sore thumb.
She sighed and walked back in.
Soon she made it back up and started looking through the things that were there.
It was mainly some ancient books and old blades.
She looked through the books to find anything but their pages were completely void of words, as Kiran had transferred all the techniques written in the book into her body.
These texts were written in the Gildex language, which made it possible for the informations in it to be transferred into a person's brain without them reading it.
The information not only stayed with the person's brain, it stayed with the soul, which was why even though the fighting skills, cultivation techniques and separation techniques were in her head, she still needed something to jolt it up so she reminisce it.
So if she read something that made her remember even one of the combat skills, she would remember it perfectly and master it but as the situation was, all of the books were empty, leaving Chima helpless.
Still Chima continued searching and soon came across a space in the floor that looked unusually smooth so she squatted beside it and began dusting the dirt off it.
It seemed like a tile and when Chima removed it, there was a small square space in it and in the space were two books.
She gasped in excitement and brought them out.
The first was about to fighting techniques with daggers and short swords, the other just looked like big gray rectangular piece of furnished wood.
But it did looked like a book, but not one Chima could use anyways.
So she kept it safely back and brought her focus on the other book.
She opened the book and realised that it was written in a strange language, one that she could understand ofcourse.
In the book the first step was to meditate and gather some Qi.
The short sword techniques in the book stated that only Qi users would be able to use it.
Some little miles away were the odd duo of @callmechunli and @iamthebadguy running speedily towards the mountain where Kiran was at.
@iamthebadguy was obviously the one blessed with agility and speed as he dodged trees vines and rocks and ran exceedingly fast while the other lagged behind and tried to catch up.
"Boss! Hurry up! If we don't lose them soon, they're gonna kill us! And we haven't even found the rest of the team!"
"I'm purposefully----slowing myself down----so you can feel better----I'm not tired!" @callmechunli said breathing heavily like a tired dog, he hadn't taken his portion of the nutrition medium before plugging himself into the game so it was understandable.
@iamthebadguy saw quickly that his boss was slowing down and knew that they needed a place to hide unless, those who were looking for them would find them and-----Those people were ruthless, who knows what they would do to he and his master when they found them.
