There was no flash of light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The stone walls of the Whispering Chasm literally liquefied like wax held to a blowtorch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ancient statues of the forgotten gods dripped and smeared into abstract smears of gray and black.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dante stood his ground and dropped into a defensive stance. His hand hovered over the hilt of the [Crimson Edge]. He didn’t let go of the glass crest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ceiling of the cavern tore open. But it didn’t reveal the violet sky of Outpost 404.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The illusion peeled away to reveal a sprawling and apocalyptic mountain range.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sky above was a swirling vortex of blood-red clouds and pitch-black lightning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ground beneath his boots wasn’t stone anymore. It was jagged and corrupted obsidian.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Ding!]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The system alarm didn’t chime. It shrieked! It was a harsh and blaring sound that physically hurt the ears of Dante.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[CRITICAL ALERT!]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[You have breached an Uncharted Death Zone.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Location: Sanctum of the Eclipse]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Warning: This zone far exceeds your current physiological parameters. Communication networks disabled. Revive protocols disabled. True Death is active.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dante quickly turned around to look for the path back to the Whispering Chasm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no path. The obsidian mountains stretched endlessly in every direction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The exit had completely vanished the moment the environmental illusion dropped. He was locked in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"True Death,\" Dante muttered. He read the blaring red text in his vision.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he died here, the system wouldn’t even try to send him to a respawn point.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It would instantly trigger the neural overload sequence in his VR capsule. The [Tear of the Forgotten] was gone. He had no safety net.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looming directly in front of him, carved into the side of the largest obsidian mountain, was a monolithic temple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The architecture was terrifying. It wasn’t built for humans.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The steps leading up to the main entrance were ten feet tall each. They were designed for something massive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The pillars supporting the structure were wrapped in jagged and metallic thorns. The grand double doors were blown completely off their hinges and lay in pieces on the steps.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The atmosphere was suffocating. It felt like standing at the bottom of the ocean.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sheer cosmic pressure radiating from the temple was actively trying to force Dante to his knees.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He gritted his teeth and forced himself to stand upright. The [Sun-Forged Cuirass] glowed warmly and pushed back against the oppressive aura.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had no choice. He couldn’t go back. The only way out was forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dante began the grueling climb up the massive stairs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had to use [Blink Step] just to scale each individual step. He teleported upward in short and controlled bursts to conserve his stamina.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It took him twenty minutes just to reach the main landing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stepped over the shattered remains of the massive bronze doors and entered the shadowy temple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The interior was impossibly large. The ceiling was lost in the absolute dark above.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Floating braziers lined the central aisle. They burned with cold and silver flames that offered no heat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the end of the aisle, sprawled across the center of the temple floor, was a corpse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dante walked closer. His boots made no sound on the smooth obsidian floor thanks to his Titan-grade ring.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he approached the body, the system identified it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Remains Identified: Eclipse Sentinel]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Tier: Super-Divine]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Level: ???]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Status: Deceased.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dante stopped ten feet away. He stared at the massive guardian.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a towering and heavily armored knight, easily forty feet tall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its armor was crafted from a metal Dante had never seen before. It radiated a soft and celestial glow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the Super-Divine guardian was dead. And it hadn’t been a long fight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dante inspected the corpse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Sentinel hadn’t been chipped away or worn down. It had a single perfectly clean hole punched directly through the center of its chestplate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The edges of the wound were cauterized smooth. Whatever hit it had completely vaporized its core in a fraction of a second.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The corpse was currently dissolving. It turned into golden motes of light that drifted upward into the dark.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The blood of Dante ran cold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A Super-Divine tier entity was functionally a god in the Zenith Protocol. Entire nations of players wouldn’t even attempt to raid a Super-Divine boss until years into a cycle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And something had swatted it like a fly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A sudden and earth-shattering roar echoed from deep within the temple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t the roar of a beast in pain. It was a roar of absolute and territorial rage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sound wave was so powerful it physically pushed Dante backward. It forced him to dig his boots into the floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Something was still alive in the inner chambers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dante didn’t retreat. He drew the [Crimson Edge].\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The red blade felt woefully inadequate compared to the scale of the destruction around him, but it was all he had.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He moved past the dissolving corpse of the Sentinel. He slipped into the heavy shadows cast by the massive pillars.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He utilized the stealth passive from the [Band of the Void-Walker]. He made absolutely zero noise as he advanced toward the source of the roar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The central aisle led to a massive and circular antechamber. The walls were lined with glowing silver runes that pulsed erratically.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dante peeked around the edge of the massive stone archway leading into the chamber.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He immediately held his breath.\u003C\u002Fp>",909,"2026-06-03T12:02:18.787Z","2026-06-03T12:02:25.060Z",1,"novelbin.me","542539e86e7ef1112371aadff58f4dcf9c8014e35cec4bc7bdb4977b3fd7d8cf","started-with-a-10-000x-multiplier-in-a-game-worl-chapter-14","started-with-a-10-000x-multiplier-in-a-game-worl-chapter-12",109,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fstarted-with-a-10-000x-multiplier-in-a-game-worl-cover.jpg"]
