《In-game Item Storekeeper》Chapter 73 - Nazeebo (Diablo III)
Advertisement
Somewhere in the Cemetery of the Forsaken, the Waypoint lights up and Shang appears on the top of it.
Shang: Let’s see…
Shang checks his surroundings to find himself surrounded by gravestones.
Shang’s thoughts: Of all places, you have to build the Waypoint in the middle of the enemy territory.
Shang curses the old Horadrim in his thoughts but he could not blame them. No one would know the people bury the dead near the Waypoint in the future.
Shang also notices some skeletons walking around with either equipped with one sword or equipped with both sword and shield.
With his martial arts, Shang sneaks past the skeletons and jumps up to the tallest crypt he could find for a clearer view of the cemetery.
Shang’s thoughts: Looks like they have not reached here yet. I guess they are stuck in Weeping Hollow.
Shang thinks as he looks around for the group who he thought is already here.
As Shang looks around, he notices a skeleton falls back from knocking onto some kind of invisible wall. The skeleton stands again and swings its weapon against it. There is nothing deflecting the weapon. The skeleton tries to approach but fail as he falls back again. Unable to move towards the direction it wants, it goes the other way.
Shang looks from location of the skeleton and notice the tree which the skeleton is approaching has a strange light hanging from one of its tree branches.
Deciding to investigate the light, Shang jumps towards the tree from crypt to crypt.
As Shang comes closer to the tree, he notices there are also strange things hanging from the tree branches.
Shang’s thoughts: Where did I see them before?
Shang stops before the invisible wall which had prevented the skeleton from passing through.
Shang puts his hand on it and his hand goes through it.

Shang’s thoughts: It only works on the dead.
Shang then moves towards the tree and climbs it.
Ignoring the other hanging objects, Shang works his way up the tree towards the hanging light.
As he comes closer, Shang feels the sudden blow of the wind which shakes the hanging light.
The hanging light turns to face Shang as it shakes.
Shang stops his climb as he is now face to face with the light.
Shang had thought it might be a doll or amulet hanging from the branch. He did not expect to see a hanging head of a brown haired female whose eyes are wide open and glowing.
Shang’s thoughts: That face, where did I see it before…
Shang thinks as he tries to remember by staring at it.
Shang’s thoughts: It is her...but wait, isn’t this item…
Shang’s thoughts are interrupted by a sudden pull from his shoulder.
A masked voice is heard.
????: Wake up. Her countenance is not for mortal eyes.
Shang turns around and finds himself in front of a figure wearing a huge mask which has two set of eyes.
Shang: You are?
????: Young one, this is not a place for you to come here. It is best that you leave.
The figure says while revealing an ornamented dagger on one hand.
Shang: I am afraid I can’t.
Shang says as his eyes fixed on the ornamented dagger.
????: State your reasons.
Shang knows who is standing in front but he pretends not to know.
Shang: Horadrim.
????: Horadrim? Wait… The spirits speak of you... The Order… The Crusaders of Light… What brings such a young protector like you to this place?
The figure lowers the dagger.
Shang: The Nephalem.
????: The Nephalem? You are looking for me?
Shang: Not only you, there are others who are supposed to be here.
????: There are other nephalems? So I am not alone…
Shang: I think they are still trapped in the Weeping Hollow. Will you come with me, Witch doctor? Oh wait, I forget to introduce myself. The name’s Shang. What’s yours?
????: The name’s Nazeebo.
The figure says while removing his mask, showing a face with piercing on his chin and ears.

Edge Cases (Book 1 Complete!)
Rare classes and powerful skills are helpful. Too bad the system doesn't seem built to handle them. What even are all these errors? Our team of outcasts and adventurers will have to rely on their trust - and the bane of all stories, healthy communication - just to survive, let alone understand what the system is doing. Because they're quickly realizing that it's doing something; to people, to monsters, and maybe even to the gods themselves. And their goal isn't just to survive; it's to make things better. It's a good thing they're not doing it alone. --- Edge Cases is an attempt to take the LitRPG genre and the overpowered MCs trope and write a story where numbers aren't everything. Sometimes it takes trust, support, and just a touch of being very, very clever. Expect a mix of action, slice-of-life, friendship, and ominous worldbuilding. Updates M-W-F at 6pm EST. Cover art by Alovck of Artstation, and typesetting by jessessey right here on RoyalRoad.

Impossible Devices
Twenty years after the start of the new millenium, the world was largely at peace. Crime was at an all-time low in most nations. No large scale conflicts between countries currently existed, and the people of Earth had even begun to see hope for the future. In the year 2020, all of that changed. The first occurrences of the interdimensional reality altering zones occurred. Named 'Dungeons' these supernatural and alien existences unleashed monsters and mayhem upon the world. Only after considerable loss of life and adaptation to the new world order did people begin to rally back. The discovery of a strange artificact item in one of the dungeons allowed humanity to develop powers far beyond their wildest imagination. This device worked on principles considered to be impossible. It was not the only one. Items of super-science and magic were discovered inside the dungeons of the world that could not possibly work according to the known laws of physics. Yet, they did. A special school was built to train young people so that they could specialize in dungeon exploration, in the defeat of monsters and the acquisition of the Impossible Devices.
