Transmigrated as a Ghost

733 Chapter 733 Marcus, Mrazivý, and Roxene’s Eleventh Floor (2)

‘I could try and just fly through while in my ghost form, but I have a feeling that will not end well for me. If the stupid door was able to prevent me from using that trick, I highly doubt the traps here will be any different.’

Rubbing the back of his head Marcus looked at where to start but had little idea.

Certainly, he already had the skill to sense traps which he obtained in the Ocean Bluff Temple Dungeon, but he had no way to disarm them.

‘It only takes one skill point for me to learn at this point and twenty-eight to bring it up to level four. But do I want to use so many skill points?’

In the need Marcus decided to simply buy the skill at level one for a single skill point and hope to be able to level it up naturally while going through this pathway.

‘Damn it!’

On the first trap he immediately messed up and seemingly nonexistent arrows pierced into his side. Completely ignoring his armor and natural defenses.

To make matters worse when he removed them the wounds were slow to heal even with high-speed regeneration.

‘Great even with healing magic and spirit healing it took me nearly a half minute to fix up three holes in my side. This is really going to be a bitch.’

Continuing on, Marcus had himself pierced, slashed, shocked, and even doused in acid as he tried and failed many times to disarm the many traps in his way.

At one point he became incredibly fed up with it and decided to simply tank his way through the traps. Only to make it to the end of the tripwires and run into an invisible wall he could not go through.

Then he suddenly found himself back at the start with all of the traps reset.

Collapsing to his knees Marcus felt his last shred of hope fading away.

Everything he had tried had been for naught.

When he attempted going ethereal to avoid the traps, they hit him anyway.

He tried sending an iron golem ahead of him to trigger the traps, but they did not even react and it was all for nothing.

Even his best defenses could not seem to block the horrible effects that came after any of the traps were triggered, as they seemed to simply appeared out of nowhere and already hit him.

‘I wish now more than ever that I convinced either of them to take this path.’

Unfortunately, Marcus had been selected to take the skills path simply because Mrazivý took speed thanks to her unique skill, and Roxene had been obstante in taking the path of strength.

And now Marcus had no choice but to continue or stay locked up in the dungeon for all eternity.

‘I wonder what Roxene and Mrazivý are having to go through? I just hope it is not even half as hard as this.’ Marcus thought. Trying to not dwell on his miserable failure.

‘Hey Roxene, how is your path going?’ Marcus asked over their connection that was still working.

‘Not now Marcus. I am fighting some tough opponents. I will get back to you when I am done.’

With Roxene’s blunt response, Marcus hung his head and wished he was in her place.

He felt he would rather fight a hundred powerful monsters than try and get through this trap hall.

…

‘Not now Marcus. I am fighting some tough opponents. I will get back to you when I am done.’

After receiving a message from her caretaker Roxene continued staring down the enemies in front of her.

So far, she had to fight through multiple battles. Each one pushing her harder.

Right now, her enemies were three ogres that had skin like adamantine and moved quite quickly for their size.

Along with that their physical power was nothing to scoff at, and they were immune to magic.

Still Roxene had never back down from a fight she could win, and this was no different.

In a flash she bounded towards one of the ogres her claws and teeth out front.

Naturally the other two moved to intercept like before to keep her from singling out oen of them and whittling them down.

At the last moment though she cast the ravenous abyss spell and sent it towards the one she had been feigning going towards and launched herself at the one that was furthers from the others.

Certainly, the spell would not be able to harm these ogres thanks to their magic immunity, but it still slowed it down enough for her to pounce onto her target.

She bit hard into the arm it brought up to defend itself, and at the same time racked her claws against its torso.

A heavy blow then hit her in the side as the ogre brought back its other arm and punched her in the side. But she simply tightened her jaw and sunk her teeth in deeper.

Soon thought she was smacked away by another ogre that had caught back up and she went flying across the room.

However, she did not go alone as she managed to tear off the arm of the ogre she was attacking.

Spitting it out of her mouth Roxene trained her attention back towards her opponents, and even as her body was sore and injured, she smiled.

‘I will slowly rip them to shreds until they are all in shameless.’ She thought as she jumped back in.

…

In contrast to Roxene, Mrazivý was closer to Marcus in that she was not very much enjoying her challenge.

Certainly, it was not as bad as her fiancé’s who had been constantly being hit by traps, but her progress was quite minimal.

Her trial was to run as fast as she could to try and clear a track before time ran out.

But even when she tried to move at her best, she still fell short by a few seconds.

When she saw how close she was she had tired to use her unique skill, only to find that it would not activate. Much to her distress.

In the end she figured that this challenge was meant to push her to either advance the current speed boosting skills she had or possibly learn a new one.

So, all she could keep doing was throwing herself at it until she was too exhausted to continue.

‘I just need to get faster. I may not be able to raise my stats any higher right now, but they are not everything. I just need to keep at it until I break through.’ Mrazivý thought while laying on her back and breathing heavily.

When she was ready to go again, she got up and continued running.

Soon she was able to see the finish mark but just as before she did not reach it in time and was warped back to the beginning.

Nevertheless, she smiled even though she had just failed once again.

‘That was the closest I have gotten so far. That proves I am getting a little faster each time. I just have to keep going until I reach a breakthrough.’
