Chapter 53 Mortal Kombat
If they hadn\'t come, they wouldn\'t have known that such a thing existed here.
They looked at Nianzu and didn\'t want to waste more time with him.
Rather than looking at him, they were more focused on looking at the screen, alright?
"Thank you, master, for your forgiveness."
"Yes, yes, yes. Whatever. Now, Ru Mo, tell me more about the lightning God, Raiden."
"Yes, Ru Mo. Tell us. Is he that strong?"
Goul, who both elders had brushed off, didn\'t know how to feel right now.
He was glad that he was off the hook. But why did it feel like he only got off because they didn\'t care?
The perplexed Goul decided to stay beside his master and win his affection back.
Ru Moyen, who had suffered after knowing the identities of the middle-aged-looking men, calmly relaxed again when talking about Mortal Kombat.
Goul inserted himself in the conversation, making his master see him pleasing again.
Indeed. This Hall had a charm of its own, making people from all statuses come together.
And soon, it was time for Ru Moyen, Nianzu, and Tsongai to play.
Both elders looked at Goul proudly as if saying, just watch how we play with these villains who gave you a bad time
Looking at them, Goul had Deja Vu, remembering his first time coming here.
His master and elder Tsongai should be able to take down the enemies without any setbacks, right?
Goul nodded and felt that it should be the case.
Who were they?
They were distinguished elders of the Profound sect!
So how could they lose?
Impossible!
They had more experience and strength than everyone else here.
So they would never lose!
Goul stood by them proudly while watching their gameplay.
.
After inserting their cards, they immediately saw 2 icons on the screen; God of War and Mortal Kombat.
Now, they started to believe!
The voice from the artifact made them almost leap in shock.
Who said that?
So, it is true! This was really a gateway to multiple Realms.
Damn. How could such a puny place have this when their sect didn\'t?
What was the real identity of the Park owner?
Looking at the icons before them, they started hesitating on which one to choose.
They had agreed that they would both try Mortal Kombat first.
But seeing how Heroic the God of War icon was, they were very tempted.
"Well, it\'s a tough call to make. But let\'s just stick to Mortal Kombat for now before entering the God of War realm."
Tsongai nodded in agreement: "Old Nianzu, let\'s do that then."
With that, they selected Mortal Kombat and chose the \'Konquer\' Story mode settings.
Soon, they found themselves quickly losing consciousness.
And in a blink of an eye, the scene around them changed.
Eh?
(°O°)
Nianzu looked around him and was left in a daze.
Words alone couldn\'t describe what he was feeling right now.
While watching from an audience\'s point of view, they didn\'t get the whole experience.
So for them to suddenly teleport and find themselves here in a blink of an eye made them speechless.
Of course, without their permission, they got drifted into some story about the world they were in.
Suddenly, the scene changed drastically, and they soon found themselves looking at a dark, creepy tower that had lightning falling on it.
Why was the lightning only targeting the top of the building?
Wait!
Could this be the home of the lightning God Ru Moyen mentioned?
No way! Were they really going to see Elder Raiden?
.
~Drrmm Drrmm~
The sounds of thunder went off as countless reddish lightning streaks burst out from the sky and landed on the tower.
Soon, they were taken to the top of the building, where they spotted a massive hole drilled from the bottom of the tower to the top.
Was the hole there so that the lightning could get into the building?
~Drrmmm, Drrmmm~
Several Streaks of lightning passed by them, making them shiver in fright.
How could it be that strong?
They felt like if it struck them, they would turn into dust.
And as they slowly descended into the hole, the rich qi and pressure from Raiden\'s lair made them tremble like peasants looking at a God.
Well, Raiden was a God. So it was normal for them to feel that way.
If such a person existed in the lower realm, he would be able to destroy the entire place with a flick of his wrist.
Elder Raiden was mighty!
~Drmm, Drmm~~
"Ahhhhhhh!"
A deep spine-chilling cry echoed from within the building, making their hairs stand.
And soon, they decided even further down the hole, only to find that the lightning that fell through the hole into the tower seemed to be directed at a certain prisoner.
The prisoner wore a very eye-catching gold armor and was chained up with his hands apart.
His face and body really looked bad, with countless injuries on them.
Well, being struck by lightning so many times, who wouldn\'t look bad?
They even felt it was already a miracle that the guy was alive.
If it were them, one strike, and they would turn into powder.
That\'s how strong they felt Raiden\'s lightning was.
Eh?
Could this guy be another God since he was still alive after all that?
Soon, the prisoner coughed loudly before looking up, making Nianzu and Tsongai freeze.
Did he notice them?
What do they do now?
.
The Prisoner looked in their direction, revealing a set of all-white eyes with no pupils in them.
~Cough, Cough.
"You--You should thank me, Raiden. Our battle changed you... for the better!"
Seeing his cold eyes, Nianzu and Tsongai wanted to cry.
Each of them, in their own computers, felt helpless.
\'Senior, I\'m not Senior Raiden, okay?\'
What was this situation they found themselves in?
Even when injured, the senior before them was too strong compared to them.
His cold aura made them feel like a kitten standing against a lion.
This is a setup!
But just when the duo was about to cry, they soon saw another man in the room who looked overly heroic.
The man stood in front of what looked like a port, wearing a large flat hat on his head, a strange bluish-black cultivator attire, and pieces of metal shields on his body.
And when he looked up, his eyes shone with red lighting.
So powerful!
The duo felt like they were looking at a savior.
Senior Raiden, is that you?
