Terra Nova Online : Rise Of The Strongest Player

(Dumpy's POV)

As per Leo's instructions, Dumpy began to quickly look for any possible hidden staircases that lead to the basement, however, without having a clear idea on what exactly to look for, he was mostly just hopping around, observing the floor intently.

'Why do these humans have to make everything so complicated….. why can't they just live in muddy swamps?' Dumpy wondered, as after a couple seconds of trying to search for the hidden entrance, he already became frustrated with humans and their desire to build brick homes.

'Even those overgrown lizards with wings live in caves or near volcanic pits. Yet these puny humans make such elaborate structures….. and for what?' Dumpy wondered as his disgust for humans and human architecture only grew.

'Their doors can't fit me in full size…. Their hard marble floors are too cold to walk on in winters and when you kill a man on them, the blood just pools all around instead of seeping into the soil….' Dumpy thought, as to him, the whole concept of having hard floors seemed pointless.

Compared to open grass, Dumpy could only think of disadvantages of having a hard marble floor, as his train of thought soon went completely off the rails once he began to think about floors and his general disgust of humans.

'I don't understand how master is a human? He's so different from the rest of them. He's like a frog amongst humans, while the rest of them are useless–' Dumpy thought, as he began glazing his master hard in his thoughts.

'The way master defeated that mage and that swordsman…. It shows why he's so strong! Master is truly the best, ' Dumpy thought, as he began to suddenly feel giddy as he jumped higher and higher without even noticing.

'I wish master was a frog…. We could have so much more fun if he were…. We could go and breed with other frogs if he were a frog, but he doesn't seem to like frogs or even humans….' Dumpy thought, as he frowned a little when he reflected on his master's sexual tendencies.

'This world needs more of master's offsprings, yet instead of spreading his powerful seed, master focuses on raising snakes and meeting other men.

The humans around him have this strange concept of taking in only one woman as their lifelong partner….. however, that's just absurd.

The strongest stud deserves all the ladies, that's how survival works and my master is the strongest stud… but he may be an impotent one' Dumpy thought as he disappointingly shook his head.

"Oh master…. Don't worry, I'll find a cure for your illness one day, please rest assured–" Dumpy muttered out loud, as lost in his thoughts, he accidentally collided against a wall that pushed back just a little when he did.

"Oh?" Dumpy thought, bashing into the wall headfirst once more as once again the wall pushed back just a bit more yet again to reveal a sliver of the hidden passage underneath!

"I found it— Master! Master! I found it–" Dumpy screamed, as suddenly a snake emerged from the passage he had just uncovered, only for Dumpy to swat it away like an annoying pest.

"Know your place, filthy Mongrel—" he said, as the poor snake was flung away a full twenty meters before it fell.

"You found the entrance?" Leo enquired, as he rushed over after hearing Dumpy's voice.

"Yes, we need to push this wall back to unveil it, it's a false wall built on a mechanism!" Dumpy said, as Leo put the frogs theory to test and pushed the wall back with all his force.

To his surprise, the wall actually pushed back, and quite easily at that as Leo did not actually expect it to work.

All his life he had only ever seen hard walls that never moved an inch, and hence pushing one back was quite a novel experience for him.

"GOOD JOB DUMPY!" Leo said happily, as after pushing the fake wall all the way back, Leo uncovered the hidden entrance that led straight to the panic room, as clutching his dagger, Leo rushed in, prepared for the final fight.

(Inside the Panic Room)

Just like the rest of the palace where snakes terrorized the soldiers guarding the structure, the soldiers gathered outside the panic room also found themselves in a big snake problem.

Being built underground, the panic room had a few air vent openings for air circulation, and thanks to these vents, a lot of snakes managed to reach the hidden structure, causing mayhem to unfold underneath.

Thankfully for the royal soldiers, with everyone present down there being an elite soldier, they reacted to the crisis of snakes falling from overhead much better than the rest of the palace soldiers, however, they still faced significant issues of their own.

For one, they had to unlock the door to the panic room and a few soldiers had to fight from the inside, as a few snakes had managed to reach the insides of the panic room through the air vents.

And for another, they had to break their usual formation to better deal with the snake threat, which left them vulnerable to attacks when Leo finally arrived.

Ideally, as per protocol, they were to never open the door lock, as even if all of them died, the lock was designed to be unbreakable and could keep the royal family within safe for days.

However, with the unexpected snake crisis, all those measures had gone to hell, providing Leo with an unprecedented opportunity to complete his mission and exterminate the royal family, for once and for all!
