Versatile: Alternate World-Chapter 613 Ocean Of Monsters (III)

"Rebooting..."

The sound of the automaton echoed inside the room as its eyes lit up. I grab a hold of both my Versatile weapon and the Pain Delivery to start attacking once I notice the Automaton is showing signs of aggression. Since I have no idea of its personality, it is better for me to be prepared than to be caught off guard by it.

"REBOOTING COMPLETE. START-UP SYSTEM IS COMPLETE. PREPARING TO BOOT UP."

,m And with those words, the automaton started moving, its gears starts to turn and the rust and dust that accumulated on its body immediately got shaken off. It stood up and its eyes glow brighter than before.

"BOOT UP COMPLETE. SCANNING CURRENT OBJECTIVE... E-E-ERROORRRRR-RRRRR. CLEANING THE LOG. CLEANING COMPLETE. SWITCHING TO AI MODE PERSONALITY."

I am almost ready to pull out my weapons when the automaton is already booting up. It looked at me and its eyes glow brightly. However, it seems it wasn't the main case.

"Oh? Who do we have here? A wingless? I didn't know the proud angels are now allowing the wingless to climb up these majestic clouds without being ordered to be killed."

"Huh?"

"You must be someone who stumbled upon this place. Although I just woke up from a long slumber, I can tell that a lot has changed especially with a wingless in here. However, if you are looking for a treasure or anything that you can sell, I apologize but this place was not something like that at all."

I didn't respond and pull out my weapon. He might not be showing transgression but speaking to an intelligent automaton who just woke up from deep slumber is something else. You wouldn't know whether they are sincerely talking kindly or they are just calculating how to dispose of you quietly without you or anyone else knowing.

"Wait, wait, wait! No violence. I am not hostile so please don't destroy me. I just woke up and I don;t want to engage to combat without even knowing how to do so. Please stay calm and be a rationale wingless. I know you guys loves war but please don't drag innocent automatons down to that hole."

"Who wouldn't be vigilant if an automaton who just moved started speaking like a human. Most automatons have been either more like a machine or they just attack without saying any word and devoid of any intelligence. You can't blame me if I continue to be vigilant," seeing the automaton remained calm, I put away my weapons but didn't put down my vigilance. Even though this automaton is quite eloquent in speaking and speaks like a real human, it doesn't change the fact that this guy is a machine. Imagine a skeleton made of metal and gears started talking to you like a normal person, that's how I fee right now with this guy.

"So what brings you here? I know that this place was placed in a very secretive manner according to my owner who seems to be no longer here but finding it means you are looking for secret areas and stumbled upon here, right?"

"Yeah, actually I didn't expect there would be something like this so I turned on the power source and here we are."

"So my assumption is correct. Just like what my creator said, the wingless likes treasure hunting and exploring. Who would have thought the wingless are quite a unique existence. I shall take note of that in my database for future references. Anyways, if you are indeed looking for treasure, I apologize but this place is not an ancient area where treasure is located. This is just a simple facility that is connected to the Dark Sea."

"Dark Sea? You mean that impassable area where the darkness gather underneath the continent of Luminous?" I act clueless though its hard to act surprised.

"Oh, so you knew that place? Yes indeed. This is the only pathway that can allow direct access to that place. So if you are looking for treasure then you are in the wrong place."

"Wait, wait. Since you mentioned this place is the only way to enter the Dark Sea, that means I can go in?"

"Yes. But I suggest you shouldn't go unless you have teammates with you, You should know you won't survive there and you only have 0.01% chance to return alive."

"So that means there is still a chance to return alive?"

"Yes, but pretty slim. Still, do you want to go?"

"Why not? Isn't that the main purpose of adventure? To explore the unknown?"

The automaton shakes its head like a person who is disappointed by my answer.

"Alright. Although I just woke up from my deep slumber, I will be operating this place up, and become the conductor to help you get transported to the Dark Sea. You can go back anytime you wanted to but don't blame me if something happens to you. I warned you about the risks you will be meeting."

The automaton turned around and started to pull some levers and push some buttons. Then, in a moment, a telepoter suddenly materialized and appeared. In the past timeline, someone had to make a makeshift lift as there are no elevator to go down and up to the Dark Sea. To think a teleporter was actually present. No wonder there is a teleporter in the Dark Sea but its not functioning. The automaton was meant to be the one who will be activating it.

"Is it fine to go down and access the Dark Sea?"

"It's fine if it is meant to fight the monsters living there but most of the time, no. However, since you are insistent, I would be helping you on this one. Don't tell master about this although I don't know if he is still alive."

The automaton pushed another button and the teleporter came to life and has finally appear to be functionable.

"Step in and prepare. You are in for hell."

Finally, time for the grind to begin.

...

...

...

[You have discovered the Dark Sea. You are the first to discover a lost area. You obtained the limited title (Pioneer of Ocean of Monsters)]

Oh? So this title was obtained here? That's understandable now. I thought it was something else but to think I am the one who took the title from Sigma. I am sorry Sigma but this time, I would be reaping the things that you have obtained in the past timeline. I am just desperate for levels.

The moment I arrived the Dark Sea, a level 200 Corrupted Crab appeared immediately.

"I f*cking miss you all f*ckers."

I pulled out my Versatile Weapon and changed it to a scythe and swings it to the Corrupted Crab.

SWISH!

A clean cut on the legs rendered the Corrupted Crab motionless with all of its legs cut off. I didn't allow it to recover and immediately cut off the pincers of the Corrupted Crab. Once those are gone, I proceed to stab its left eye and gouge it out of the eye socket.

"BLAST OFF!"

BANG!

The body of the Corrupted Crab exploded as I channeled my mana to the Versatile weapon and fired off the energy that is loaded on it. The moment it died, it dropped a lot of materials and I immediately leveled up. However, I didn't get the chance to check the level as another monster emerge again. This time, it is a Seaweed Crawler.

Looks like I have no chance to restin this grind. As I was about to engage in battle against the Seaweed Crawler, more monsters are now rising up, all in boss levels.

"This is looking more great as time goes by. I will be having fun this time around."

And so, the slaughter begins.

These monsters are all monsters I have recognized and have defeated in the past timeline so I am not pressured at all. In fact, I am ecstatic. The fact that I am doing a solo run in Dark Sea, if the players in the past timeline heard this, they will be crying in jealousy. Until then, I will be monopolizing the bosses.

SWISH!

Cutting off the incoming seaweed tentacles, I kicked the other sea monster on the abdomen before I stab the Seaweed Crawler and blast it in flames. Then, once that was done, an octopus tried to wrap me up, but my swift movement instead made one of the monsters nearby got caught by the tentacles and got squished to death by the octopus. That thing didn't change and still likes to do some strong hugs but oh well.

Although all of them are boss monsters, they are not that strong if you already know how they work. With someone like me who farmed here in the past, this monsters are not even on the level of strong.

So I slice, dice, slash, kick, punch, blast with magic, anything that can kill the monsters works. But since this is a boss rush mode, after a monster is defeated another will appear and sometimes, they will appear in big numbers. Once you have killed enough, then you are in for a big surprise.𝗳𝒓𝙚e𝓌e𝚋𝙣𝚘𝐯𝙚𝙡.𝑐૦ｍ
