Chapter 615: Split Realm

[The Mountain of Giza (-) (Split Realm Dungeon)]

[Level Maximum: 50]

[Entry Limit: 5 (Split)]

[Recommended: Will 5000]

[Description: The people of Earth have a deep and storied history. In its past, much of its language encompassed the secrets of this path and embodied the hope of nations.]

[Fallen and forgotten, the ebbs and flows of time have suppressed this storied heritage. As an Earthling who has rekindled that flame, you share part of this responsibility.]

[Light the fires of war and stoke your suppressed history, rise up as your ancestors once did, and face the oppression of the wider world.]

Sylas' heart skipped a beat.

The highest-ranked Dungeon he had ever seen was FFF+. He had always assumed that that was the limit. But the fact this Dungeon was asking for 5000 Will, something he didn't even have half of, and his <Master Scouting> skill couldn't even see through it...

He began to hesitate.

Taking risks was fine. But this was several orders of magnitude beyond just a risk. It was life and death, where death almost seemed guaranteed.

However...

He looked out into the distance. Was there even a way to retreat right now?

[What is a Split Realm Dungeon?]

[A Split Realm Dungeon is a fragmented Dungeon formed not by the random splicing of the current system, but rather lingering-]

[Question has touched upon a Taboo. Glutton Curse activated. Hunger has increased.]

[Madness Key (Treasure)]

[A key leading to a fortune of Madness. Detects other Madness Disciples and enlightens your path. Contains a small spatial world within. Can answer one question in exchange for <8 Bronze> Genes.]

[Curse Status: Glutton. <32 Bronze> Genes a day to maintain Happiness. Requirements grow by the day. <5 days> remaining until Hunger increases.]

[Curse Status: Cannot be unequipped.]

Sylas' brow trembled. Before, the Madness Key had been at 16 Bronze Genes a day, and just four Bronze Genes per question, but it had suddenly doubled for the first time in a long while. And this time, his Luck didn't warn him.

Just as he had that thought, his Luck's warning came in late, and Sylas' pupils constricted. This place... it could restrict Luck?

The bad feeling welling up in his chest only grew heavier.

[What is a Split Realm Dungeon?]

[A Split Realm Dungeon is a fragmented Dungeon formed not by the random splicing of the current system, but rather lingering attachments formed by a World. In the past, this was how the Legendary Path System operated and how Dungeons used to be formed. However, these Dungeons are much rarer, and as such, didn't give many opportunities for growth.]

[The rules and regulations of Split Realm Dungeons tend to be random, and they often display a distorted retelling of history in cases that they are reflections of the past. Though they can also be the product of resentment from a particularly powerful expert or the cumulative resentment of many who died during a bloody war or battle.]

The room shook, and dust fell from the ceilings.

Sylas looked up and found that they were likely in a bunker of sorts. But the limestone that

etched the walls reminded him very much of the pyramids.

He quickly stood to his feet just as an attendant came rushing through the door.

"Great King, they've breached the eastern gates."

[Leg 001]

>[Repel breach of Eastern Gate]

A notification popped up for Sylas, but it was murky and not too clear. It was almost like the modern system was trying its best to give him some insight and guidance, but the Legendary Path System was interfering somewhat, or at least making it very hard.

Sylas could see why they gravitated toward the modern system. The old system was much more hard-nosed and difficult to deal with. Its instructions weren't nearly as clear.

Still, Sylas took everything in stride, and the others followed him out, finding themselves standing near the top of a coliseum very soon.

From this vantage point, Sylas could just barely see the situation at the Eastern Gate, and his

eyes couldn't help but narrow.

"Demons."
