Chapter 56: The Castle, Undead Lord

As the massive gates of the [Undead Castle] creaked open, Alex felt a cold wave of dread wash over him.

The [Undead King] had intervened, granting him access to the castle, but that didn't make him feel any safer. 

He was still a level 33 player in an area meant for level 100–250 powerhouses.

One wrong move, and he could end up back at the spawn point, and as the guards informed him, they wouldn't let him pass a second time.

With his respawn point set here, and the game limit removed, he could be in here for months if not years.

The two towering guards stepped aside, glaring at him with disdain as they gestured for him to enter.

Alex took a deep breath, steeling himself.

He didn't have a choice.

The only way out was forward.

"Great," Alex muttered under his breath, his steps hesitant as he crossed the threshold into the castle courtyard.
