Dungeon Maker

< Chapter 12 # 2 >

&

The sky in the magic system was red. But it was not one color.

The dusk light that was mixed with the Borat light continued in the western sky. Black, red and purple were harmonizing like watercolor paint, and beyond that, red and yellow were dancing together again. It was like the sky was on fire.

Nor did it fill all the heavens. A quiet, faint red light envelops the sky's margins. It was like the sunset.

The dry wind blows the dust away. The earth was dry, but not everyone was the same as the sky was. There was some fertile land, and not too far away was a forest full of tall trees. Like the succession forest, there were trees with green leaves.

A river flowed through the forest. I wasn't sure what I'd seen from afar, but it was pretty clear water. One of several streams of water derived from the river flowed near the dungeon, and the dragon could see where Eligos was heading with the Servants every morning.

The air is cold. Katarina says it is now between winter and spring.

The magical beings were all rooted in magical power. Even the little birds flying in the sky crawled to the ground.

Katarina and Yongho have been out of the dungeon for a long time. I didn't look around too much. At best, I looked around the entrance to the dungeon.

The entrance to the Mamon family dungeon lies at the mouth of a very large mountain.

The name of the mountain is Encarthropagnium. In ancient Greek, it means "the end of the world."

Katarina, who was anxious to go up the mountain, vomited a little relief at the sight of the dragon hovering around for over two hours.

Encarthropagnium was not called the end of the world for nothing. There was an endless storm of magical power on a huge boulder that seemed to pierce the sky. It was a land of immortality that could not be returned once it entered like a profane horse.

After sighing, Katarina vomits and rolls her eyes behind her back. I wish you'd asked me to hunt.

The dragon just stands still and stares at the sky and the earth. Since Katarina, the prestigious guardian, couldn't go hunting without her owner alone, she couldn't help but stay by her side.

As Katarina grew weary of boredom, Dragon saw the flow of magical power.

I was immersed in the great currents that make up this world, not heaven and earth.

Magic had colors and attributes. The dragon that dealt with the power of evolution could see its colors and properties.

The wonder filled my heart.

This is the magic system.

This is magic.

I didn't get bored just looking at it for an hour or two. The dragon swallows a dry saliva and once again vomits a small elasticity. I thought about going in and helping Eligos for a moment, but I was ecstatic and couldn't get off my feet.

And then one day.

Yongho suddenly turned his gaze. Katarina, who was kicking the dirt with her toes and fighting boredom, also raised her ears and sharpened her eyes.

A low magical cry resounded in both heads.

The dungeon meerkats that stood on top of the entrance to the dungeon, like bunkers, stop crying.

The dragon lowers reflexively, and Katarina sits close to the side of the dragon.

The dungeon meerkats' vision echoes with the elves. That's why Katarina was able to see the dungeon meerkats.

“Here comes the wagon. ”

Except for the forest on one side, it was a barren wasteland. Yongho couldn't tell exactly what it was, but he could see that something was coming from a far away place.

Katarina continued.

“The number of wagons is five. It looks like we've got more than forty working horses on this scale. And... I see the sentence of Forest. It seems that Forus himself led the army. ”

Katarina grips her teeth as she finishes her final words. Dragon Hoe flinches his eyes instead of jumping into the dungeon in panic. It's because the wagons stopped suddenly leaving quite a distance behind.

“What are you trying to do? ”

“Looks like you're going to take a break before entering. ”

Katarina replied with a slight reluctance.

Most of the dungeon battles took place within the dungeon. Occasionally, there were defenders attacking the dungeon attackers stationed outside the dungeon, but that was rare. Fighting in the dungeon was much more advantageous than fighting outside the dungeon.

Yongho guesses the psychology of Forest.

Although he lost his Orc scouts, Foras knew the Mamon family well from the days of the Chariot and Chariot. I brought in a bunch of servants just in case, but basically it was likely that they were underestimating this side.

There are no counter-attacks. Knowing the truth about an attack doesn't make the dungeon's defenses any better.

Yongho is not angry. Rather, I'm glad. If I could have a little more time, I'd be more than welcome here.

“How long do you think you'll be resting? ”

Dragon asked low. Katarina hesitates for a moment, but also answers in a small voice.

“I won't rest long. No matter how long it takes, it's going to be an hour. ”

It was lacking, but it was better than nothing.

They probably looked this way, too. Maybe that break was a pretty elegant declaration of war.

The dragon turns back without further delay. You and Katarina head for the Dungeon Entrance.

I slowly picked a breath filled with excitement.

Garju Forest.

It was time to fight.

&

[Alarm Dungeon Servants!]

[Enslaved Servant Eligos is issuing a withdrawal order to the Servants.]

As soon as Yongho entered the dungeon, the spirit of the connected dungeon spoke quickly and accurately. Dragon ran with Katarina after giving her consent. It took me a while to get to the Demon King's room.

[Reporting from Dungeon Meerkat.]

[See 30 Orc Warriors]

[Identify 10 Imps]

[I can't find the servants in the wagon!]

There are six wagons.

Katarina said there would be at least forty of them. To put it simply, it was four times the size of Mamon's Dungeon Servants.

There were no wins in a head-to-head match.

I had to use dungeon facilities thoroughly, as though I were building a fortress.

[Dungeon meerkat reporting!]

[The battle wagons of Forest, Gaju, have resumed maneuvering!]

“Lord!”

The moment I reached a distance just in front of the Demon King's chamber, both the spirit of the dungeon and Eligos shouted at the same time.

Dragon Hoe replies to the spirit of the dungeon with a flick of his finger. You draw your breath and approach Eligos.

Eligos replies with an unbearable expression of urgency.

“As you said, I have assembled all the servants in the Demon King's chambers. ”

“Traps?”

In succession, Eligos grins.

“The installation itself is complete. ”

It was rewarding to buy expensive complete traps on purpose. If you had bought the assembled traps, you wouldn't have finished setting them in time.

[Dungeon meerkats want to hide.]

The spirit of the dungeon spoke successively. It was conclusive evidence that the distance between the battle wagon and the dungeon had been narrowed.

Yongho accepted again. You take Katarina and Eligos back to the Demon King's room. All the working horses gathered in the same position gave an example to Yongho.

I restrained my restlessness once again. It was not because they were in front of the ministers. The more urgent the situation, the colder it had to be.

The dragon on the throne spreads its hands wide to create a giant window of light. All the servants could see the weakened status of the dungeon.

Then silence followed.

The atmosphere makes a low grunt of cobalt, and Katarina swallows an elongated dry needle. He closed his eyes and waited.

And how much time has passed.

Finally, the spirit of the dungeon spoke.

[Forest of Gaju and his charioteers have invaded the dungeon.]

The dragon opened its eyes. I saw the Forest indicated on the dungeon status.

&

A kind of workhorse - a giant horseshoe is not a factory piece.

The appearance and structure were different, and there were individuals with unique personalities.

Typical dungeons were mostly underground, but there were also skyscrapers, like the maze of the king of arrogance, and dungeons that were either on the water or flying in the sky.

Nevertheless, it was a dungeon that could be labeled with the modifier "general."

Most dungeons had several characteristics to share.

One of them.

Dungeon entrance room is secure.

Foras' eyes narrow as he enters the entrance room of Mamon Family. It wasn't a small room, but I felt cramped as the last forty Orcs and ten Imps came in.

‘A new housekeeper has arrived. ’

I couldn't think of it as a dying dungeon. I could feel the vibrancy from the magical forces supplied to the activated room.

Foras looks up at his right hand. Then Orc Berserker Gokun, the guardian, gave orders to the soldiers in a low voice. One of the Orcs opened a door leading to the next room, and you chose one of the bee swaying Imps to lead.

Forest remains motionless. I watched the next room carefully through the open door.

The room is not dark.

It was still powered by magical light.

One of the most important things to take care of when attacking the dungeon was the lighting. There was no dungeon defender to kindly illuminate the enemies who invaded the dungeon.

However, there was light in the entrance room now and in the next room.

There were two possibilities.

One, the spirit of the dungeon is still immature and does not have detailed control over the power supply within the dungeon.

They cut off their magic to turn off the lights, and then they cut off the power supplied to the trap together.

An accident that occurs when the spirit of the dungeon fails to properly control the magical power supplied to each function.

Two, the new immediate housekeeper is a child who doesn't even know the basics of dungeon defense.

The second possibility was deliberately ignored. Underestimating the enemy was only a shortcut to defeat.

Forest watches calmly. Only after the lone Imp has fallen into the crash trap can the troops advance to the next room.

&

Forest moves slowly, but steadily. You break through the four trapped chambers with the crash traps set at the minimum.

The crash traps were the most basic of traps. It was easy to build with labor, and operation didn't require much magical power.

After four falling traps in a row, Forest once again convinced himself.

The new gazette was just moments away. The spirit of the dungeon is young, and the level of the traps is not high.

An Imp in the fifth room steps forward trembling. Luckily, this time, the fall trap does not trigger even though it crossed the room completely.

In a certain way, this was also natural. It was impossible to fill all the passageways with traps. However, there was nothing more to say for the housewife who was just now ready.

Four trapdoors set in a row directly in front of the entrance room, depicting a sense of immaturity.

Forest is very slight, but relaxed. I marched on the marching horses as I did in the rooms in front of me.

Twenty Orc Warriors, the first of the two hordes, enter the fifth room along with the Imps. Foras, along with the other twenty, waited for the servants to take the sixth room.

As such, the moment the Imp opens his sixth visit.

A flame erupts from the ceiling and floor, setting fire to the fifth trap room.

&

Repeated patterns loosened a person's mind.

Even though the enemy attacked, so did the illumination that still shines.

The flame made by magic was intense.

The moment the Flame Trap set off like Orcs called the Born Warriors, everyone made a dodge, protecting their heads and breasts, but the Orcs in the middle of the room were running out of time.

The fire has consumed the Orcs. Six Orc warriors were killed or wounded in an instant, leaving them incapacitated.

The moment Foras vomited, the Mamon family servants gathered in the Demon King's room shouted for joy. Katarina and Eligos also hold their fists tightly and do not hide their excitement.

But the dragon swallowed a dry saliva. I saw a ‘dozens of compartments' of travel routes unfolding in the dungeon.

The ‘straight distance’ itself between the Demon King's room and the Dungeon Entrance Room has not changed. It was just a different path from the entrance room to the Demon King's room.

What are the current strengths of the Mamon clan dungeons?

Uselessly large space.

An enormous number of inactive rooms.

Yongho activated deactivation chambers located to its left and right about the existing trap room. Thus, trap rooms that had simply been drawn in a straight line were transformed into dozens of large rectangular shapes.

After that, it was just a new path.

It was as logical as drawing a single brush through dozens of square rooms in a large rectangle.

Starting with the entrance room, go up and to the left, turn one space and then go down again. Then turn one to the right and this time go up. Then again, one to the left, then down, then one to the right, then up.

And, of course, traps were set in between the long, long passageways that were made that way.

There are more than fifty rooms left between the last trap room in the entrance room.

There were only 20 rooms with traps, but that was enough.

The density of the trap.

Where to set which traps.

After a careful investigation of the troops, Forest entered the sixth room.

Dragon did not care.

There were no traps in the sixth room.

&

It didn't have to be a trap in every room.

It was enough to plant the idea that any room could have a trap in the enemy's head.

Rooms with no traps.

A room with a trivial trap.

A room with a powerful trap purchased from the Dungeon Chamber.

Complete control was important.

One powerful blow at a time of relief.

A new trap is when I think there won't be any more traps.

The user carefully examines the trap in the middle of a powerful trap, leaving nothing behind to inflict vain and fury on the target.

Foras and his charioteers continued their maneuvers around the first ‘corner’. If you've been going up and down so far, it's now the going down section.

I could never ignore the accumulated damage while passing through twenty rooms. Even the fighters who held their strength felt fatigue beyond all imagination.

And then there's the second corner.

Foras turns back and moves upward, pausing for a moment.

It wasn't because fatigue and irritation were spiking.

Forest was an old housekeeper, and a skilled housekeeper like that. He was also the owner of the dungeon that had been running his dungeon for seventy years.

If it was just one corner, it would have been too much, but I turned two corners. I drew the structure of the dungeon in my head, going through the sections that are repeated up and down.

And so I was convinced.

Foras stops all his chariots. Then he turned to the left relative to the door leading to the next room.

A wall without an entrance.

But it didn't matter. If the same pattern repeated, there was a passageway beyond this.

Even though the new instant gaju was a more unlikely foe than I thought, it was clear that the instant gaju was only a short period of time for the gaju. If I activated too many rooms, I had to neglect the ‘reinforcement of the wall' between the rooms and the rooms. Moreover, if it were a circular structure like this, the wall between the room and the room was likely to be thin.

Forest rests his palm on the wall.

You triggered a scroll with the magic of 'Wall Destruction’, one of the dungeon attacker's essential items.

Continuous vibration.

A new room has emerged beyond the big hole.

Foras smiles. He grunts fiercely and raises his hand.

I went on a ‘shortcut’ with the servants.

The End
