Dungeon Maker

< Chapter 21 # 2 >

In fact, the same exploration was much better than when we were looking for the armory and the gold bladder before.

At that time, it was closer to just looking in the right direction without knowing what was where, but this time there was a map.

As soon as the front row seat was almost taken over, Crazy Ants took over the Golden Vault. Even the items in his beloved sister's office had to be given up, so the situation must have been quite urgent.

And that meant that almost all of the areas after the gold mine remained the same in the days of Kaiwan.

Of course, the map found in Kaiwan's journal was closer to the blueprint, including future plans.

However, at least the area near the gold mine was already completed in the days of Kaiwan, so the accuracy of the map did not change.

Dragon Hoe, who arrived in front of the office in Kaiwan, spread a map of the dungeon with his finger in the air with a new copy of the Dungeon of Kaiwan.

Before you leave, Yongho looks back at Katarina.

“How about a shadow? You think you're used to it? ”

Katarina hesitates for a moment and slightly increases her ears.

“It's not perfect yet. The more I use it, the more likely I am to find something more... I think we should just use it for an additional hit after attacking. H-shall I show you? ”

Yongho takes a few steps back and nods as he has no reason to refuse. A swift GO grabs Salami's blinding tail and pulls her back.

After some distance from everyone, Katarina takes a deep breath and pulls out a dagger from her waist. You cut through the air as quickly as possible.

Obviously one move.

Then something in the back of Katarina's arm appeared just after Katrina cut through the air, cutting through the air again. Ben's black energy scatters like smoke, following exactly where Katarina bent.

As I was promoted to Shadow Runner, it was Katrina's new ability.

It was a skill that dealt with the magical power of dark attributes, but it seemed more like a kind of physical technique than magic.

When you get used to it, do you think you can handle something like self-immolation? Or more hits. ’

There was no precedent, so I had to find out everything by myself.

‘But now I feel like a horse. ’

Of course, Katarina's lack of acrobatic expression was really great, but it was somewhat different from the image of the ‘Horses’. They never actually used magic.

“Well done. I look forward to the future growth. ”

“Thank you."

Katarina, who was frankly pleased with the praise of Dragon, retrieved the Dagger. He noticed that he was excited to see something strange again.

[Then let's start activating the deactivated passageways.]

Lucia activated a blocked passageway as if the situation had been cleared up. The first destination of the expedition was the Dragon Warrior Training Ground.

“That went well.”

The golden bladder and the training ground are not far away, and there are no monsters to say this in the newly pioneered passageway. At best, a few slimes appear.

It was natural to think about it.

Inside the golden chamber, it was a place where the core facilities of the dungeon were kept safe rather than to prevent enemy attacks.

Based on facilities placed under the original lifestyle, the distance between the facilities was close, and not far from the gold mine room, thanks to Crazy Ants, there were no other dungeon monsters.

[Begin Activation of the Basic Training Ground for Military Units.]

When the magic power was supplied and the light came in, the space was almost as wide as the room of the Demon King. A few ants that appear to be remnants of a Crazy Ant crawl through the floor and walls as if fleeing from the light.

When the dragon glances, Salami, who scorched the backboard, flies to destroy the Crazy Ants.

Dragon has turned his eyes away from the fight and looked inside the training ground since he wasn't particularly worried.

Overall, it felt like an old, old gym. The ceiling was a little higher than the other room, and the floor was covered with dirt.

Next to the square section that looks like the arena, there were several scarecrow dolls that were commonly seen in the game.

The skull starts hammering the scarecrow as if to demonstrate. For some reason, Yongho felt that his evolutionary skills would gradually rise with every single punch, triggering the power of evolution in a reflexive way.

‘Oh, it's really coming up. ’

I had to swing the hammer dozens of times because I was already quite a grown skull, but it was important that it only went up one time.

In the head of the dragon, Eligos was not a Goblin because he could not do it, nor Katarina, Likum, or anyone else.

The red daemon - the Beast, nothing else emerges from Eligos' ascendable route.

As the word "beast" was attached, I was expected to show what it would do if it evolved.

‘It must be the battle faction. The battle faction.’

The smiling dragon unfolds the map of the dungeon to tease his fingers again. I was going to continue digging up the rest of the facilities.

But that's when it happened.

Skull strikes the scarecrow, lowering his hammer and looking around. Not only did Skull look at Salami and the GO, but Katarina also looked in the same direction as a lie.

Yongho did the same.

You feel a strong flow of magical power beyond the wall, but not far away.

[The magic in the air is concentrating abnormally.]

[The signs are unusual.]

[The fundamental data of the Dungeon Chamber and the current situation… are twisted!]

The relatively calm voice of Lucia suddenly rises at the end.

Lucia said almost as if it were pouring out.

[An abnormal concentration of magical power is causing a warp.]

[There is a high chance that the dungeon monster will be summoned from an open space door due to distortion.]

[You do not know which dungeon monsters will appear. Please get somewhere safe for now!]

Whether it was really urgent, Lucia not only spoke to Yongho, but also listed the letters of light in the air to inform Katarina of the crisis.

Dragon reminds me of an explanation I heard from Eligos in the past.

Twist, one of two causes of dungeon monsters!

Crazy Ant and Salami also appeared in this way. In the age of Kaiwan, they would have been defeated soon, but both of them could not be defeated, resulting in the taking of the gold and armory.

It could have been repeated again.

Katarina looks at the dragon. Yongho quickly judged.

“Lucia! Tell me exactly where the warp is! ”

[If it's under Kaiwan's leadership, is it an empty vacancy right next to the Training Ground... Master?]

Dragon Hoe pulls out the Amon. Catarina, who was aware of the dragon's intentions, immediately drew her weapon and Skull nodded as well.

Do not run away.

Rather, right after the warp opens, the dungeon monster just summoned is stormed and repelled.

Being here was practically Mamon's greatest power source in the dungeon. If I couldn't do it with this power anyway, I was likely not to be able to do it in the future.

Lucia knew the will of the dragon. That's why I vomited, hesitantly, but not for long. The passageway leading to the next vacancy was activated right at the training ground.

[Dungeon monsters will appear soon from the warp.]

[If you're going to do this, please hurry! Don't get hurt!]

Dragon ran, smiling. The charioteers who led Katarina followed behind.

[Impossible to activate the void due to excessive horsepower due to distortion.]

[I've informed Eligos and Ricum of the current situation.]

[Lycum, the minister, will come soon with reinforcements.]

The dragon sees darkness beyond the passageway. A colorful magic whirls through the darkness.

Baek jumps off Salami's back, pulls out the rod-shaped lighting fixtures from the bag on his back and throws them to the ground. Then a white light appeared from each of the bars and drove out some of the darkness within the void.

There were also warps in Katarina and Skull's eyes that could not read the color and properties of magic. It was like a rapidly spinning azimuth. There is nothing in the air, and an unusual energy gushes out.

The warp could occur in any dungeon. What was important was how to respond to the warp.

The vacancy itself was not that wide. It was only a quarter the size of the training ground that was just there.

Yongho has been stationed with the servants at the exit so that he can retreat at any time. You asked Salami to target the warp.

Shoots Salamander's flame as soon as the dungeon monster is summoned from the warp. Looking at the situation, Yongho himself also joins the flames of Amon.

It is best to end the situation with a flame without engaging.

Salami looks at the distortion as she draws the flames together.

The dragon again sees the color and properties of its magic. The colors that made up the warp were gradually unified into one color.

Red.

The warp has stopped. The spinning magical force erupted, and the room was opened with intense light!

“Fire!”

Dragon howls as the light clouds your vision. Salami closes her eyes tightly and opens her mouth, collecting and unleashing the gathered sparks in one fell swoop.

With a flash of firepower, even Yongho was able to overcome Salami. The flame overwhelms the light. You hear no screams, but you smell something burning, and you hear the sound of rough wings flapping.

My vision had been paralyzed for days. The dragon opened its eyes and looked straight ahead. It was only a few seconds away, and Salami's flame still lingered.

It looks like a giant worm. Insect-like monsters poured out of the warp, which had not yet been closed, were swept away by Salami's flames and killed.

The operation was a success. The dragon raised Amon just as Salami was approaching her limit.

But that was the moment.

Salami's flame cracks. A violent flame rises from the twist through the flames of Salami.

Yongho immediately remembers his first encounter with Salami. Almost similarly reproduced in front of the eyes was the scene that suppressed Salamander's flame with Amon's flame.

“Gene! The gin of flames! ”

Katarina shouts. The flame that rises from the warp is constantly burning, making up the massive man's torso, though its shape is unclear.

It was intuitive. The flame didn't work on him. I needed other means of attack.

“Skull!”

The skull charges forward bravely, wielding a battle hammer, but it does nothing. It was impossible to strike the flame with a hammer. As you almost ignore Skull's attack, one camp looks at Salami, Dragon Hoe, and Katarina, frowning. He gathers two arms full of flames and emits a huge flame, just like Salami did.

I split my life and death.

Katarina clutches onto the ground, clutching onto her immobile thigh. Salami stares at the flames while exhausted, and the dragon steps forward to set Amon on fire as if protecting Salami.

The flames and flames are raging. Katarina, who held the GOOG in one arm with the ground, quickly returned to the rear of the accelerated camp, clinging to the ceiling and wall. You throw the dagger along with the shadow.

It doesn't work this time either. The shadow of the dagger seems to have hit you a little, but enough to scatter the flame a little.

But Catarina's purpose in the beginning was not to defeat the Flame Gene with a single blow. The act of occupying the background itself was to disperse the innervation of the flames.

The dragon pierces the flames. The body is covered with rust from Amon and rushes headlong into the camp of flames.

The pearl of flame, which distracted Katarina, quickly turned to the dragon. But by then, the distance between the dragon lake and the camp of flames had already been narrowed.

The gin of flames wields both arms roughly. It was truly terrible to see waves of flames rushing towards my head from the air.

But the dragon didn't notice the eyes. You keep an eye on the camps of flames, causing Amon's rust to become even rougher.

A wave of flames strikes the dragon's face. Mixed with salt and scattered in the air. Dragon has taken another step in all that.

It's hot. The sight created by the flames consuming each other mesmerizes the eyes. I believed I could defend myself against the greenery, but I couldn't help but feel the instinct reacting to the flames in front of me.

The flame pours down on your head this time. Once more, the rust settles with the flame. It exploded, and the blistering of the dragon's body disappeared for a moment.

The heat became much stronger. I wanted to close my eyes right away. The flame that rose from the Flame Gene grows right in front of you.

Amon's flame was not universal.

When he defeated Salami for the first time, he only defended the flames with the salt, but ultimately, it was Skull's direct attack on Salami's body.

If so, where?

Where and how to attack a man made of flames.

Dragon saw the flow of magical power. I read it with immense concentration at the instant.

Another color appeared in the flames. The swirling thing was the essence of the gin of flames.

Dragon Hoe has once again caused rust. You stick your left arm, not Amon, in the flame.

The salt and flame erupt once more. The Jinn and Dragon of Flame did not harm each other. But Yongho didn't care. I read the magic and reached for the core. The magical power stored in the bracelet was released in a single moment instead of rust!

It was not a flame.

It was a cold spell absorbed from the queen and the Forest!

The bracelet found along with Kaiwan's journal had the ability to store magic. The dragon, which consumed all the previously stored magic in the battle with the Rand Worm, contained the cold magic. It took me a while to fill one of the bracelets, though, because my magic control was sloppy. In the beginning, it was only a matter of time before the ears of the free city to the dungeon remained on the road.

Dragon has yet to use magic. It was just a momentary release of cold air. But that was enough. The cold drives out the flames. The core of the Gene of Flame is frozen.

The gin of flames screams in agony. The dragon ignored it, like the sound of the wind. I grabbed the frozen core with all my might!

The core breaks apart like a fragile piece of ice. The fires that were forming the camp of flames were scattered with a single scream, leaving nothing behind. Only the ambiguous heat proved that there was a genus of flames.

“Huff, huff... ”

Dragon Hoe staggers, vomiting his rough breath. Katarina urgently raised such a dragon.

[There is no sign of any more dungeon monsters from warping.]

[Good job. Great job!]

[I will also report this situation to Eligos and Rikum, the slave ministers.]

The dragon tightens its eyes once at the sound of Lucian inner voice. I can feel the magical power, even though it's a little bit from the remnants of the core in my hand. It may be difficult to absorb the essence, but the snacks you gave Lucia weren't a problem.

I can't believe the flames didn't work.

But I finally defeated him. Katarina smiled brightly as well, not concealing her joy.

[Twisting will be consumed naturally.]

[However, there is a situation that you may not know about, so we recommend that you keep your distance for a moment.]

It was a theory.

But the dragon stepped back and relied on Katarina instead. You notice a slight but still rotating twist- the flow of magical forces.

Twisting occurs due to unusually aggregated magical forces in the atmosphere.

In other words, it itself is a massive mass of magical power.

“Lord?”

My Lord?

Katarina and Lucia said at the same time. Instead of answering to both, Yongho reaches out for the twist.

So naturally,

Greed in Yongho opened his mouth.
