Multi-Gene

The sounds of doors opening echoed through tbe hallway. Our came three familiar figures, Gordorf, young master Alan and Rutherford.

David took off his scrutinzing gaze from Teela, standing up as he faced the young master.

The young master paused as he saw the two of them once again outside the prison before them. He squinted his eyes softly and a thought flashed through his mind, but in a flash, it was as though he didn't notice anything.

"Was there any trouble with the undead you were faced with?"

Both Teela and David shook their heads. "No"

"Good, let's rest here for now and regain out stir strength. I have information that the next two prisons would be vastly difficult to the previous two." Young master Alan suggested.

David and the others nodded in agreement. They sat quietly down on the cold marble floor, eerily quiet.

David glanced at the others and saw they were meditating with their eyes closed. He then took off his gaze and swept it towards Teela. His brows furrowed, trying to get a read on the lady.

Although the young master's strength was just at the integrated Phase with a 60% integration rate already, David senses told him that that was just what was on the surface. When the young master phase, his strength would be infinitely closer to the Atman Stage or might even breakthrough directly to the Atman Stage. And as a genius who had received the most care and resources, his strength would likely be far above ordinary Atman Stage expert.

Although David wasn't 100 percent sure of his theory, he was at least 70 percent sure. But the problem was, how did Teela come to know about it?

One can only knows of another's full strength through their energy level, but one's energy level can be faked once you get to the stage where you can directly control some parts of your body, depending on one's talent. But to see past the fake energy level, one must be stronger than the target or have a close enough strength to see through the target.

There are other ways to figure out people's strength too, with a very advanced scanner. Although expensive to get, it's really worth the price.

Technology couldn't be used here due to the Interferences, unknown strange frequencies which meant that Teela wouldn't have been able to use such a thing. Which leaves the only next option, her strength. She's either slightly weaker than Alan or maybe even stronger. Either way, she was someone David rapidly became weary off. Losing his gained near her might most likely result to death.

"That's enough rest. There isn't much time before the other family figure out what it is we are trying to do here and they would come swarming in." The young master suddenly said.

David paused as he heard it. "If you done mind me asking, what is it we are trying to do here young master." David suddenly asked.

The young master turned back to David and smiled slyly. "There's no need for you to know, nor any of you. Since you might have forgotten what your true mission here entails, let me remind you. You all are only here to guard me, that's the main reason you are here. The treasure you find on the way with your strength is yours to keep and I will have no say in it only if you're obedient and learn not to ask questions. Are we clear?"

David's pupils dilated immediately and a streak of gold and red lightning streaked past them.

The young master swept his gaze towards Teela, Rutherford, Gordorf and then stopped at David, staring at him with a slight polite grin.

David smiled slightly and nodded his head.

"Good, now that we've cleared that up, it's time we go. Teela, David, you guys head in first. Let us see if the situation will be different this time."

The two people didn't argue and proceeded to walk into the prison. David could feel the young masters intense eyes on him and his face twitched, suppressing the anger within him.

When last did someone dared speak to him in such manner?

The door slammed close behind him as he finally entered inside the prison.

Before him was a very large cave. This wasn't like the Palace/ prison he had seen in the previous two places. This place was three times bigger than the previous places and even more wider.

The temperature within the room was astonishingly high, burning with an amazing 2000° celsius. The floor within the cave was scorching red, and a lava pool sat right in the middle of the cave, shining its crimson light around the cave.

The wind formed the shape of a smoking hot dragon, swimming into David's nose as he inhaled.

Cautiously, he began walking towards the lava pool, gazing around the cave. Just at the edge of the cave, a small tree stood there, a diamond-shaped transparent orange-coloured fruit could be seen just at the edge of a branch.

David's heart skipped a bear immediately he set his eyes on the fruit and he immediately knew he must have it. The sudden impulse to jump over and swallow the fruit crossed his mind, but David was cautious and didn't give in to the compulsion.

The still lava suddenly started forming ripples on the surface and ever so slowly, a giant with a large hole in its forehead, covered in lava came out from within the pool.

As soon as he saw the giant, David's heart sank instantly. It was a true fire giant!

An undead who managed to morph before being killed and then managed to stay in its form even afteritir had died. This wasn't an ordinary Atman Stage undead either, this one had already morphed! Unlike the other undead who remained in their human form after they died, this one could be said to be an anomaly!

Roaaaaar!!!

Liquid lava splashed everywhere from its body as it roared loudly, sending out ripples upon ripples of sound waves mixed with shockwaves.

David stomped his toes slightly, conjuring a shockwave before him, preventing him from being affected by the sound waves.

The Fire giant seem to be annoyed by David's indifference with its show of power. It immediately took a step forward and the entire cave shook by that time, it's huge figure was no where to be seen.

BANG! Whoosh!

David stomped his right foot to the side and evaded to the left, dodging the grab from the Fire giant.

Rumble!

It's palm slammed on the ground, slapping a few huge rocks that were big as boulders up in the process.

Grabbing at two of those rocks, one-fifth of the rock instantaneous melted to lava making the boulders a mixture of lava and boulder. The Fire immediately tossed them towards David.

David stood steadily on the ground. Although the Palace was huge, it wasn't nearly enough to contain the Fight between the two people.

Since there was no where he could go to avoid the fight, David stood steadily on the ground and punched out twice.

Bang! Bang!

The two boulders immediately pulverised to dust, splashing the red liquid lava on his body, burning holes through his newly changed shirt.

As the powdered rock blocked David's sight, a large glowing fist tire through the cloud of dust, smashing forwards David's head like a meteor.

BANG!

Massive amount of shockwaves balssted in circular directions, rippling through the air as though wanting to tear the void into pieces.

David's expression changed slight and he was forced to stagger backwards, he flipped four times in zigzag direction before he finally negated the force rampaging within his body.

His arm immediately felt numb. David gazed seriously at the Fire giant. But it was already before him as he had just stablized himself.

"Fvck! Just what sort of undead is this?" It's intelligence was even higher than some adult human. He immediately dived to the sized, avoiding been pounded to death in the head by the two interlocked fist hammer of the monster.

Another boulder flew up. The Fire giant kicked it towards David's direction. David brought his hands together in x shape and with a bang, the boulder exploded as it slammed against him.

David quickly retreated as he expected some form of retaliation from the partial blindness from the dust to hia sight.

A huge shadow immediately covered David and his senses twitched, a massive rain of lava descended from above, covering him up with the hot liquid.

Shhhhhh!

His clothes evaporated, leaving David bare and almost naked as he stood there.

The lava barely affected him except for the few reddish patches on his skin, there wasn't any real damage.

The Fire Giant didn't follow up with any attack and waited for the lava to flow away as though waiting for David to become cooked and thoroughly fried.

But much to its surprise, David was barely affected.

"Floating Wind!"

The wind behind him exploded as he appeared all of a sudden on top of the stunned Fire-Giant.

"DIE!!! "
