Chapter 240 Rift

Name:Eldritch Creature's Guide Author:


After they completed their Advancement Quests and Samiel managed to germinate the Ability Seed in record time due to the outside help from the Outer Gods, they observed how the Void was enveloping the Divine Altar dedicated to the Outer Court.

It looked like some sort of crystallization took place around the entire structure, looking like some protective shield enveloping all nooks and crannies of the Divine Altars of the Outer Court.

Probably some sort of mechanism so nobody under Legendary Level would not even dream of damaging this splendid piece of architectonic wonder that he scrapped up together, but that was not his matter at all.

When they were done here, Samiel contacted Juulius and they started coordinating their effort to clean out the remaining factions of the Bone Mountains so the Holy Sunz Klan could take root in this place entirely.

One interesting piece of news that found its way to his ears was that the Church of Lolth was withdrawing entirely from the Bone Mountains and even the remnant forces of the Church that were still in here, were heading to other parts where it was pretty much habitable.

Clearly, their efforts in the desserts of Sikarra were too much, but Samiel learned that this came from the very top.

It was very highly possible that it came from the Pope of the Church, which in turn meant that Dharzug's Green Gods intervened on his behalf so he could establish his power base in this place.

This was the most unusual scenario because the Green Gods of Orkoids never cared about their believer and when someone never said, it really meant never.

Even Daemons or Evil Gods had more contempt for their worshippers than the Green Gods.

This only meant that Dharzug's very own existence was very important for some of their schemes to the point where it forced them to scare Dark Sledarine Pantheon to pack their things and scram off from the Bone Mountains.

It took another three weeks in this dammed place to stabilize everything, to kill everyone who didn't surrender and become slaves to the orks.

Those who put down their weapons became slaves and, thus, a free labor force.

Those who didn't surrender became food for the greenskins. Orkoids didn't have problems with eating other humanoid species, something that Samiel sometimes had a problem understanding in its entirety...

It sounded a bit gross to him?

Orks were even cannibalistic; that was an area that was still out of his reach...

Dharzug was even planning sooner or later to interconnect this place with some Lower Worlds where orks were populous to either take them over and bring them to the Tower or to attack those worlds by using the local orkoid population as his troops.

Either way, he would be obtaining a rather nice army and Samiel dreaded the day when they would be strong enough to affect entire Cosmospolics on the scale of the entire Material Plane.

Right now, Samiel was experimenting with the Level 2 Rare Ability Rift and opening tears in the space-time continuum across the 10th Floor of the Tower. He had already opened one to the Vault-76 of the Doom-Tex Corporation, where they were staying with Yvraine.

The Rift appeared to be of the appearance of a regular space crack... just for whatever reason that he couldn't really explain, it was black-white like the old movies of planet Earth.

It was a bit nostalgic as he observed the Rift while some of the nice memories were resurfacing in his mind before he dispersed them and turned his focus back on the current task at hand.

Samiel then stepped through the tear in the space and found himself in the chambers of Vault-76 as he looked around the place before it was destroyed by the self-destruction that he had initiated.

"So the first test could be considered a success..."

After that, he inserted a few command lines into his Holo-Brain, activating the self-destruction sequence.

When he returned back to the Bone Mountains, to the main headquarters of the Holy Sunz Klan.

"It seems that your experiment is going well... good thing that we don't need to call someone to bring you back or patch you up... really, experimenting this dangerous with the Dimensional Abilities is utterly foolish."

Yvraine reprimanded him severely because he was partially doing something really dangerous.

Rift wasn't technically speaking a Space Ability, but it was a Dimensional one, meaning it had a higher potential, but at the same time, it was also more dangerous.

If it was just a space-related ability, it would be teleporting from A to B.

Still, with Dimensional Ability, he is opening Rifts in the Space-Time Continuum, which was a pretty dangerous thing...

If something has gone wrong, then only his Patron God would be able to save him, but Samiel had a strong faith in his own abilities and he hoped that nothing would go wrong and it paid off.

Samiel didn't know or knew very little that traversing through the Space-Time Continuum was equally dangerous like traversing through the Void itself, just in a different sense.

While the Void was inhabited by countless mighty Lifeforms, when someone opened tears in the Space-Time Continuum, it would lure there some entities that were attracted to those kinds of energies, which were released by the opening of the tears in the Space-Time Continuum.

Fortunately, Samiel had it covered by his Patron God, so he was safe.

"Stop being worried...I will be opening the Rift to the 1st Floor of the Tower right now."

Samiel stated as he opened another Rift; leading to the 1st Floor of the Tower.

More precisely, it was the area of the entrance to the Tomb of the Last Human King, where he once tortured and sacrificed those human adventurers when he entered the Tower.

Soon enough, the Rift to that place stabilized and Samiel saw the familiar surroundings of the 1st Floor of the Tower.

"Come after me..."

Samiel said to Yvraine as he motioned her to follow after him, which she naturally did, just waiting several more seconds until he successfully arrived at the 1st Floor because she wanted to be extra sure that his new Leveled Ability was a safe method of travel.

After looking over and seeing that it was safe for travel, she also entered the Rift, which closed immediately after she appeared on the 1st Floor of the Tower.

One of the most significant advantages of the Rift Ability was that it was particularly stealthy and it didn't leave any sort of wavelength or anything; basically, once he used it, it was almost night impossible to detect.

That was also a reason why he dared to use it on the 10th Floor. It wouldn't lure any Arrakian sandworms to the Bone Mountains, especially the Holy Legendary Level sandworms that were dwelling in the center area of the 10th Floor of the Tower.

"It is still that beautiful like I remember..."

Samiel heard Yvraine's voice as she appeared on the 1st Floor of the Tower and looked at the environment.

He looked over at the entrance to the place where the Tomb of the Last Human King was located as he gave one short prayer to Azathoth, summoning the dream to protect himself from the sight of the remnant consciousness of the Last Human King.
