Dungeon House 53
Dungeon House chapter 53
He said that it was a serious attack, but in reality it was nothing. Because the attack method was very simple and radical.
Simply put, it was destroying everything in sight.
Whoa, whoa, whoa! Kwak kwak kwak
“This is the third.”
[Cooling down]
[I’ll head straight to the next cave.]
[Please Summon Undead.]
What we did was the destruction of the cave where the monsters came. Monsters in this dungeon are summoned from the cave. If you leave it alone, the monsters will keep coming back as before.
Once the monsters in the cave were hunted and the caves were tamed with the Explosions I saw from various places, the place where the monsters would be summoned was removed.
Of course, he did not go directly into the cave. All you need to do is bring in the summoned undead and share your sight. Since I summoned it myself, there was no problem in commanding it.
[If all goes according to plan, the dungeon raid will be finished in 3 days.]
“right. However, there is no guarantee that everything will go according to plan, so be careful. In the first place, this is also an experiment, so I don’t know what will happen.”
I had prepared many things for that time, but, as expected, a little bit of anxiety remained.
[We’re here, so don’t worry too much. master!]
[We will protect the lord.]
Cuckoo!
“ruler. Next we go.”
After confirming that the entrance to the dungeon was completely destroyed, we headed straight for the fourth cave.
Suddenly, the third cave was destroyed.
The owner of the den thought it was a little difficult. Of course, recovery is possible. The power consumed by summoning monsters can be used to restore the dungeon.
The owner of the den is given the right to control the power within the dungeon. Of course, it is not completely controllable. It’s just about setting the recovery area before the dungeon, designating the monster’s summoning location, and placing or strengthening the monsters at the desired location. But right now it was impossible to do them.
He once turned the power of the dungeon to summoning monsters in the cave that had not yet been broken. Because we can’t keep putting our forces together.
The power of the dungeon, which had gone to the broken cave like that, flowed into the unbroken cave and summoned new monsters.
After destroying the eighth cave, I asked Chris.
“how?”
[It is as calculated. The types of monsters remain the same, but the quality of the monsters is higher than before destroying other caves.]
“How is the number?”
[The number has also increased. This is probably because the other caves collapsed and the remaining energy was diverted to other caves. Nevertheless, the sound that the quality of the monster has increased means that the total amount of energy remains the same.]
I smiled deeply at Chris’ answer.
Everything went smoothly.
“The rest of the caves were also hastily destroyed.
all.”
Jeep Jijigi is in full swing.
If you know your enemy and know yourself, you can avoid danger and win in any situation. Following these words, I researched the dungeon, which can be said to be the biggest enemy right now.
There was also an opportunity. In the dark dungeons that we attacked at the request of the operating office, we experimented with various things. Thanks to that, I learned a lot.
One of them is about dungeon energy.
A certain kind of power exists in dungeons apart from mana. This is called dungeon energy and that power is used to summon and strengthen monsters, and to restore the dungeon.
Boss monsters on the final floor have the right to control how dungeon energy is used. However, it does not completely dominate the power.
The total amount of energy possessed by a dungeon is always constant, but the maximum amount increases when the dungeon explorer dies within the dungeon. If this total amount rises above a certain level, the dungeon’s grade will rise.
This quality of information was obtained not only through experiments, but also thanks to the presence of kind information providers.
Yes. A boss monster on the final floor of an F-class dungeon.
When we attacked the F-class dungeon at the request of the operating department, we captured the last-floor boss monster that we could talk to and inquired about the dungeon.
Of course, they didn’t burn easily either. That’s why I mobilized various, really different methods. Not only one guy, but several guys, we dug up information and checked the intersection.
Now, we were moving on information with certainty.
According to what we have learned so far, the monster summoning place in this dungeon was inside the cave. Once the cave has been destroyed, a new location must be designated. But now I can’t.
The same goes for dungeon recovery. You can restore a destroyed cave with dungeon energy, but not now.
It was necessary to satisfy one condition.
The condition is that there must be no dungeon explorers in the dungeon to use dungeon energy.
As long as the dungeon explorer is inside the dungeon, it is impossible to designate a new monster summoning location or restore a destroyed dungeon.
Instead, it is said that the dungeon energy continues to fill up while the dungeon explorer is in the dungeon. In other words, the dungeon energy does not fill up while the dungeon explorer is not in the dungeon.
Even the boss monsters on the final floor did not know why. However, the intelligent boss monster said this.
[Shackles against boss monsters.]
Dungeon energy is connected to the boss monster with authority, and if there is a dungeon explorer in the dungeon, it will continue to fill up. Boss monsters must use this energy. Summoning monsters or strengthening monsters.
If this dungeon energy is not used in a full state, all of this energy will be concentrated on the boss monster on the final floor. However, there are limits to reinforcement. In other words, it meant that if you crossed that limit, you would die.
So they have to keep using the dungeon energy or keep it from recharging.
It is used to summon monsters to kill dungeon explorers or to strengthen the summoned monsters.
The way to prevent it from filling up is to make sure that there are no dungeon explorers in the dungeon.
If you don’t want to die anyway, you have to kill the dungeon explorer.
Of course, the dungeon energy storage limit is very large, and unless there is nothing special, there is no way to kick it to the limit.
Except in cases like now.
“You also destroyed the next cave.”
Monster summoning places that consume dungeon energy are decreasing.
He continues to summon monsters with the remaining energy to strengthen them, but the amount is inevitably smaller than when summoning from 12 caves. There is a limit to the speed of summoning monsters, and there must be a limit to strengthening them as well.
In the meantime, those of us who continue to remain in the dungeon. Dungeon energy continues to fill up.
If you destroy all the caves that are the summoning places, there will be only one outlet for the energy of the dungeon.
Only the boss monster of this dungeon.
“There are four outlets left. How long do you have left to the limit? Whoops.”
Even while I was thinking like this, the summoned Skeleton Corps continued to advance toward the cave. And we destroyed the cave one after another by subjugating the monsters.
Finally, after smashing the last cave, we settled in the center of the dungeon, where the village used to be.
And waited. I hope the boss monster that has reached its limit due to the rising dungeon energy will attack… … .
All caves collapsed. You can no longer summon monsters.
Still, the enemy did not leave the dungeon. The owner of the den immediately realized that the enemy knew the dungeon well.
The owner of the den smiled. I knew a time like this would come one day, but it went too soon. Expectations were correct, but half were not. A smile came out of nowhere.
Now, there is only one means left.
As a result, there is only one of these two, victory or victory only through wounds.
He didn’t think about defeat. That said, he was confident in his victory.
The owner of the den started moving right away. In order to punish Hyeon-bok, the target who broke the plan he had made so far… … .
Cuckoo!
“Finally?”
[I waited anxiously!]
[Castle, don’t be vigilant. The opponent is a boss monster.]
A day has passed since the 12 caves were destroyed. And finally, the owner of this dungeon. The final boss started moving.
The first thing I saw was the soaring ground. After a while, the soil and sand came off and what was left was the slime. The slime that appeared was continuing to swell.
It was literally a slime that seemed to have grown infinitely in size. The only difference was that it was a slime with a reddish color like blood, not the most obscure green one.
[Wow. Everything is as expected of the owner. A guy like a real slime is coming out.]
“Because there are only a few types of monsters that can be mimicked as humans.”
If you add the condition that you can hide your appearance by assimilating with the surrounding environment, the number of types is further reduced.
And there are only two types of monsters that satisfy these conditions.
One is a vampire who can use magic or transform into a mist or beast. And a doppelganger that can transform into a target by meeting several conditions
I judged that the doppelganger was a monster mimicking a human and the boss monster of this dungeon.
Vampires can only be active at night. High-ranking vampires can be active during the day, but such a strong vampire could not come out of the dungeon at this level.
Not only that, but it was precisely because of the village that I was convinced that doppelgangers existed.
There were many things in the village. And they are not necessary for monsters. However, not only humans, but also monsters that can mimic other things can use them. Didn’t they use arrows even in the first cave?
Finally, after discussing with Chris, he concluded that he was a doppelganger, and that speculation turned out nicely.
“I heard from Chris that a doppelganger looks like a slime, but it must be a slime.”
[Is that what the doppelganger looked like before mimicking? I hate to see it because it looks like blood.]
[This time, I feel the same way. Castle.]
Obviously, as Gassul said, the appearance was not very good.
[master. Shall we start slowly?]
“do it.”
[Good!]
As soon as my permission was granted, the castle took the summoned skeleton spearman’s spear and injected mana into the spear as it was.
Woo woo woo!
[Explosive taste!]
shhh!
The mana-infused spear flew towards the body of the doppelganger, a lump of slime that was growing as it was.
shhh! fuwook
[what? It doesn’t explode.]
The spear dug into a huge mass of slime as it was. The original intention was to burst the mucus like a balloon by the mana-infused spear.
Woo woo woo! Puff Puff Puff!
[Does it explode with a time difference?!]
[shield!]
“shield!,,
The bloody mucus bursts belatedly, and the mucus spreads out in all directions. and… … .
Aaaaah! hey hey!
The slime mass soon began to change its shape into that of other monsters.
Of course, it was different from normal monsters. It had a bizarre appearance, with the head of an orc, the body of a goblin, and the arms of a troll, as if the pieces were forcibly fitted together.
However, the presence felt from them could not be compared with the monsters they fought in the cave. The number of heads was more than the Skeleton Corps I had summoned.
Even in that situation, I smiled and shouted proudly.
“ruler. Let the war begin. A war in which our victory is sure!”
Everything went as planned. In that case, the match has already been decided.
defeat of the enemy. our victory.
Even though the bizarre monsters that had turned into slime masses began to attack, I was able to declare with confidence.
In line with my declaration, the Skeleton Corps began to march.
