Chapter 6: The Dwarven Graveyard
!!
What could this mean?
It refers to this! A scroll that appears as soon as you reach level 13, but apparently can't spawn in dwarftown.
It reads:
HERO, I AM WAITING FOR YOU.
VISIT MY PALACE IN THE ANCIENT PYRAMID FOR A MEETING.
COME AS SOON AS POSSIBLE!
The scroll is signed with "Rehetep".
Ominous!
Bit of a worm infestation detected on the way up! Dealt with it quickly and firmly.
+300s weight for +1 DV and +2 PV? I'll take it!
The pyramid is open to me now! If I wanted to, I could enter it.
But I won't.
Time to continue this quest!
G
Shadow
Threat Level: 3/10
Special: Drains strength, flies
Corpse: N/A
YES
ALL FOUR ELEMENTS ARE NOW AT MY COMMAND
This is important.
G
Wight
Threat Level: 3/10
Special: Drains toughness
Corpse: +1 To, alignment toward chaotic
The number of enemies here is really astounding!
Saving my usage of Destroy Undead for the ghuls, because of their paralysis.
Muahahahahahahaaa!
Spells become more powerful the more you use them, meaning that Lightning Bolt is currently my weakest attack spell. However, I'll be needing it later, so it's good to train it up!
DESTROY ALL
OCCASIONALLY STOP FOR PP
A million undead kills later, I come to this place!
The Dwarven Graveyard
Tomb of Griff Bloodax
Threat Level: 3/5
Using my scroll of magic mapping, I can see that this is a goddamn maze!
Step 1: Drop my spellbooks. I could easily lose them in here.
If anything here seems inaccessible, it's because the place of secret doors!
And this is why I left behind my books! This crypt is LOUSY with traps.
SHIT CHRIST THINK FAST
BALL SPELLS TO MINIMIZE HITS AGAINST ME PER TURN
And a bit of Cure Critical Wounds and I'm good.
ONWARD
And now, on to what is obviously my destination!
Z
Griff Bloodax, the undead chaos dwarven berserker
Threat Level: 6/10
Special: Unique, undead
Corpse: N/a
@
Nonnak, the master necromancer
Threat Level: 6/10
Special: Unique, regenerates, summons undead, frost bolt, immune to cold
The fight begins! I focus on Nonnak, and ONLY Nonnak.
Weakness detected! BURN HIM FASTER.
Fall back! Healing! Coward tactics to maximize defense and attack only with magic!
YOU'RE NOT GETTING AWAY, SHIT FOR BRAINS
DEAD
LEVEL UP
Skills improving! I should play with alchemy at some point.
Next level at 138,809 experience points.
Now that Nonnak is down, I go on to continue not attacking Bloodax!
Unfortunately, in my approach, I was overwhelmed by ghosts, and forced to emergency warp away. Time to recover PP and charge in again!
I have made it! I am now standing on Griff Bloodax's grave.
USE ITEM
HOLY WATER
Now you can be at peace, Griff.
Unlike me, who is surrounded by ghosts.
ACID FALLS EVERYONE DIES
Am I done in here?
OF COURSE NOT LOOK AT THAT CHAMBER ON THE RIGHT
Y
Bone golem
Threat Level: 5/10
Special: Unique, immune to fire, undead
Corpse: N/A
If I stand at exactly the right distance, I can bounce lightning bolts off the wall and hit the golem twice, without hitting myself!
Had to burn some HP and a scroll of power for PP, but I took it down!
Now, what is my prize?
BEHOLD THE ELEMENTAL GAUNTLETS
Advantages of this item:
+3 PV!
Resist fire!
Resist cold!
Resist lightning!
These are THE gauntlets. I will never use anything else.
Also, I have all inventory slots full. Woo!
Next time: Egypt!
