Chapter 140 - Poison.

[You Killed Goblin!]

[400 XP Earned!]

[XP: 2250/5900]

''Whew, another one.'' Isaac wiped the blood from the blade of his Musket Rifle. A corpse of a dead Goblin lied on the bottom of his feet, but soon, it started turning into pixels before disappearing to nothingness.

He has tried to test the limits of Mythical VR Helmet, but fighting against Monsters who can't even survive one slash or bullet from him is useless.

After cleaning the green liquid from his blade, which was Goblin's blood, he turned around and continued his walk in the dimly lit forest.

He used to jump on the trees because it was both faster and very exciting at first, but if he wants to see Monsters better, he needs to move slowly and carefully.

After walking another ten minutes, he arrived on a small rocky path. Curiosity filled his face as the rocky path was leading in two different directions, he didn't know which one to choose, but he decided the one, which went deeper into the forest.

With quiet footsteps, he walked for who knows how long. He didn't hurry or slow down too much, but he was also starting to feel slight hunger.

He rubbed his stomach and knew it was the effects of the Mythical VR Helmet.

Most of the stuff about Mythical VR Helmet is secret, and rumors can't possibly know about everything.

Isaac didn't expect him to be the first Mythical VR Helmet user because it wouldn't make any sense. He expected everyone who went to a meeting in Legacy Company to get one.

But, he indeed is the only one in the world with Mythical VR Helmet.

''I need to bring food from now on...'' Isaac muttered under his breath, and without being aware, he arrived in front of a massive mountain.

He saw something in front of him, which caused his attention to be distracted.

In front of the mountain was a greyish stairway leading to the top of the mountain, but he couldn't see what was on the top.

It was very foggy, but with his great vision, he saw an outline of buildings!

Isaac was surprised and shocked that there was actually civilization!

But he didn't lower his guard. Even Goblin's had village, and there are smarter Monsters than them.

He took his Musket Rifle from his back and put it in firing position as he slowly started walking up the stairs.

After seeing that with his current pace, it would take him an hour to reach the top, he decided to increase his pace and used his agility stats to limit and jumped over dozen steps with one leap.

But, he was still ready to shoot anything that moved.

Twenty minutes later.

He took the final step on the stairs and landed his feet on the top.

Looking behind him, he saw lengthy stairways and the forest beneath. If he fell from there, he would become a crushed pancake once he hits the ground.

Wiping the cold sweat, he turned around to see another stone path; he saw an empty yard with rocky ground, and in the distance was a temple!

The temple was in the color of grey with black-colored pillars and a sign on top of the temple.

[Temple of Thieves]

''Temple of Thieves... That doesn't sound good.'' Isaac looked around and, after seeing the place being abandoned, with no soul sight, decided to start walking towards the temple in the distance.

The front yard was massive, at least 500 meters in length and wide, but it wasn't completely smooth.

With mountain peaks were in some places higher and somewhere lower.

But, the path in front of him was smooth, which led straight towards the entrance of the temple.

Soon, he reached the entrance of the temple, and the interior seemed empty with only one altar on the other side of the room, with dozens of different cups.

A layer of dust was visible on the floor of the temple and around the altar.

*Creak*

Isaac stepped on the wooden floor, making an annoying creaking sound. A sound is usually heard in old buildings and cottages.

He instantly noticed this building being very old, and it was a surprise that it was even standing, but the temple's foundations were tightly locked with the mountain.

Isaac went straight towards the altar and stopped in front of the old cups. He looked inside the cups, and surprisingly they weren't empty; instead was, brimming with greenish mold.

He grimaced after the disgusting smell penetrated his senses and entered his nostrils.

''Damn...'' He muttered with annoyance and used his hand to wave off the disgusting smell, but then, a notification he didn't expect to see popped up in front of him.

*Ding* *Ding*

[You have been poisoned!]

[You will lose 1 HP every second!]

[Your movement speed is reduced by 10%!]

[Your vision is reduced by 30%!]

Isaac kept blinking a couple of times and saw everything becoming blurry, and he saw cups multiplying.

He rubbed his eyes, and once he opened them again, it was even worse. Some of the colors changed as everything became green-colored.

''P-Poisoned...'' Isaac fell down on his knees and tried to get his mind running because so far, he had no idea what to do if he got poisoned!

''A-Antidote... A-Anywhere...'' He crawled towards the altar and rummaged through all the cabinets, but everything was empty.

When he started thinking that was he unlucky to get poisoned, he heard waves of laughter behind him.

''Hahaha, another one!'' Isaac turned his head towards the entrance of the temple, and with his blurry vision, he saw outlines of figures appearing.

''This is so easy! These... Players are so nosy.'' A black-robed figure with the name of Rob said with a grinning face.

Another 9 figures popped up behind him and circled around Isaac, who was currently trying to stand up.

''His weapon must be expensive!'' One of the black-robed figures with the name of Sulo said. He was rubbing his messy brown beard and had a greedy look on his dirty face.

''Not only that... His outfit seems very special...'' One of the black-robed figures crouched next to Isaac and touched the texture, ''Silky and smooth! This is incredible!'' His name was Yrjo, and his mouth was stretched into a disgusting smile.

''Not only that...'' Rob crouched in front of Isaac and touched his face, ''He also looks very girly.... There are some sick bastards who will pay a good amount for him, tie him up, we have a payday ahead!''
