Dungeon Maker

< Chapter 38 # 3 >

&

The Garden of Life, the first floor of the greed maze, was the garden in its name.

That's why it was like an open place. There was no facility to stop the enemy, and only beautiful scenery lay open for the great king's castle.

But the door to hell on the second floor was different.

This was the beginning of the true Castle of Magenta.

The first door at the end of a beautiful garden. A land that anyone who wants to step into the maze of the king of greed without distinguishing the pia must pass through.

The passageway between the first and second floors was enormous. It was no exaggeration to say that the entire room on the opposite side of Skazaha's room was a passageway to the second floor.

A huge archway decorated with trees, vines, and colored flowers revealed a staircase the width of which could be passed by dozens of people at the same time. The membrane of subtle magical power blocked between the first and second floors, making it impossible to visually identify what space was underneath the stairs.

Yongho picked and brought only the smallest number of people.

Dragon Warrior himself and the cause of death.

Salami and Buquepalos.

Four skeleton knights stand out inside the Skull Army.

Giant mountain atop the dungeon of House Mamon - the influence of the 'Encaro Pagnium’, called the end of the world, has led to monsters appearing at the Mamon family that are far more powerful than ordinary dungeons. And this trend got worse as we went deeper and deeper.

On the second floor, there were more powerful dungeon monsters than the first floor.

Furthermore, the second floor is the entrance, so unlike the first floor, traps were likely to be installed as well.

Skazar did not speak specifically about the structure of the second floor or the traps set up. However, rather than needlessly mobilizing the majority, I urged them to go down to harvest only elite troops.

The dragon, who came down the stairs less than 10 meters, stood in front of the veil of gentle magical power. The stairs were also just below. It's like a staircase extending under a lake.

Yongho did not look back. I smiled at myself and took a step beyond.

I felt like I was soaking my feet in water. The dragon did not stop but rather sped up. Immediately, I entered the second floor beyond the curtain.

The air changed.

It was different from the freshness on the first floor. It was the opposite of the garden of life, where mountains and lakes were all housed in a large room, giving it a feeling of babyness despite its vastness.

It was huge.

A truly massive space lay open in front of your eyes.

The whole second floor was a space. The ceiling was over forty meters high, and the floor was a real land, not stone. Beyond a wilderness reminiscent of the City of Liberty was a truly massive wall.

It was as Skazaha said.

I couldn't help but feel that this space standing right now was inside the dungeon. It was a time when laughter would appear on a very large scale.

“Phew... Sosa. ”

After the dragon, Katarina opens her mouth wide. I didn't expect to be surprised by anything, but I never imagined there would be such a vast wilderness and high walls.

Just to discuss function, Mamon was like a ‘rally point’ on the first floor. A combat area where you can clear a large area and defend your enemies with the help of defensive facilities.

It was just too different on the scale.

If Yongho's rally point was based on dozens of people versus dozens of people, the second floor of the greedy maze would have thought of thousands. No, it was possible to welcome tens of thousands of troops at this size.

After Katarina, Eligos crossed the Tent swallowed an elongated dry saliva. I never imagined that Mamon, who had been carrying her for decades, would have these spaces spread underground. I knew there was a basement, but I just thought there were literally basements.

Moreover, this was not the end. It was only the second floor.

‘13th floor.’

It gives me the creeps. It was a long time ago, more than a thousand years ago, but I could still feel how powerful the Mamon family had been.

“Let's go.”

It was not time to be overwhelmed. Yongho himself came to conquer the second floor, not to sightsee.

Salami, who was already in a state of embarrassment in the garden of life, opened her eyes wide. Bucephalos also went down the stairs in a bewildered manner.

The wilderness stretched from the end of the stairs to the wall, roughly 100 meters. The wall was against the ceiling. Therefore, the only way to enter the castle was to destroy the gates or walls.

Yongho climbed on Salami's back and stayed out of sight. There were many large and small wounds on the grey wall that looked solid as a rooted tree. There were a whole bunch of eyeballs that looked like they were going to make a ranged attack, and a giant, ugly-looking statue was erected on either side of the gate.

As I looked at it, there were more than two statues. I see statues of giants and monsters at regular intervals. Some were severely damaged and could not predict its shape.

The statues were still a long way off, but they were so huge that they could be easily discerned. Katarina and Eligos once again expressed their undivided admiration.

But Yongho was different. From the moment I saw the statue, I felt a strange anxiety.

‘No way.'

The moment I thought about it, I saw something else. The flow of magical power emanated from the wall wraps around the statues.

Spacious space and vast walls.

Will you fight incoming enemies only with ranged weapons? Is there no means of the Hundred Disease War but to open the walls?

The answer came back. The statues on either side of the gate take a huge step.

There were no roars or monsters. But I stepped in for him. The sound of a loud earthquake echoes in succession.

The statues look at the dragon at the same time. No one started the charge first!

“Here we go!”

Dragon howls. It's not a retreat. You let Salami spread the wings of the flame.

The number of moving statues totals four.

I would have run away before. But not anymore. The statue alone was too great to stop itself and the enslaved servants of House Mamon!

Salami hits hard. The serving horses triggered Brigada at once.

Katarina spreads her wings, made of black magic. You scattered the flames and protected the rising dragon lagoon.

Eligos and Ofelia hit the ground at the same time. Magic was focused on each fist and leg. You roar and open the horn.

“Skull!”

Skull raises his hammer. The battle hammer, reborn from Bergram's hand, did not stop at simply storing Skull's concussion. The lightning spell on the hammer itself reinforces Skull's brainstorm.

Bucephalos lunges. Skull crews in their respective Nightmares raise their magic weapons along their leader.

It was only a hundred and ten meters.

The moment we rushed towards each other, there was a first collision.

The dragon flies towards the gates, ignoring the giants.

Immediately after rising, the dragon lagoon and split Katarina saw the statue to the left. I craved it. I desperately wanted it.

I wanted to stand next to Dragon Hoe. As the king of greed's guardian, I wanted to be able to stand by him. The power required to do so. The Power Needed to Always Walk Side by Side!

The darkness of greed rises from Katarina's fingertips. In an instant, it became a black blade. The statue failed to attack Katarina. It's hard to even look back at her as she passes by her side at an unbelievable speed.

The head of the statue falls to the ground. The moment it slid along a mirror-clean cutting edge that touched the ground, Eligos and Ofelia each reached out their fists and corners.

Boom!

There were two attacks, but only one sound. The high jump of Eligos' fist penetrates the giant's abdomen. The blow carrying the essence of the Southern Kingdom was more than a dozen times more devastating than Eligos' fist. The statue with a hole in its belly collapses from its knees.

The same is true of Ofelia. A massive whirlpool marks the spot where her corners were inserted. The statue with a hole in its chest sank backwards.

“Skull!”

Skull shouts. As the statues crumble, I break through the sound and raise my gaze.

The last statue strikes the sword at Skull. Bucephalos sprints toward the sword, instead of dodging it far away. According to Skull's instructions, you climbed on the statue's arm, not just the sword.

It was a thunderstorm. It was so fast that the statue had no room to hold its arm. When the arms were shaking violently, Bucephalos was already racing past the statue's shoulders toward the clavicle.

The lightning of greed shook from Skull's right arm. A battle hammer swallowed by lightning struck the statue's jaw!

It didn't sound like Eligos or Ofelia. The brainstorm not only exploded the statue's jaw but also the atmosphere. The shattered statue's head bounces off the ground.

“Skull!”

Bucephalos tramples through the air. It was a top-notch Nightmare driving technique that produced a foothold made of dark magical forces at foot contact with the sky.

And when the fourth statue collapsed,

Dragon Hoe pulls on Amon.

You stabbed Amon in the ambush at the gates of the city!

Forward thrust.

Renaissance.

It could no longer be said to be a flame. The enormous greed swallows up the black magic. Amon was transformed into a giant, giant ballista.

An unimaginable physical force strikes the gate. The gate collapsed with a terrifying sound. I couldn't stand it at all. I was separated from the wall.

Salami hurries into the city with the wings of flames. The aftermath of the devastating blow nearly knocks you to the ground, but you stabilize the impact and turn it into a landing.

The dragon howls in agony, as if his right arm were about to fall off. But at the same time, I felt a great pleasure in destroying the gates with a single blow.

The dragon glances back over Salami's back. Sunlight pours over the broken gates of the city. The slave horses follow behind them, casting their own magic.

Yongho looked forward again.

I didn't even think about stopping.

&

Wide spaces were also joined inside the walls. Apparently, Mamon thought of the second floor of the covetous maze as a series of gigantic 'rallies’.

Places for large-scale engagement.

The corridor was wide, and the size of each room was unusual.

Dragon has made a bold move. Dozens of dungeon monsters swarm in, but the dragon hoes and mercenaries do not stop advancing. With every spark, lightning, and darkness, the dungeon monsters disappeared into clumps.

Fortunately, there are very few traps.

According to Ofelia, there were even ‘traces’ of giant magic factions or traps on the second floor. Most of them, however, were destroyed at the end of their lives or due to severe damage.

Of course. It was hundreds of years ago that House Mamon lost the second floor of the greedy maze. For a long time, I didn't get the right magical power, and the dungeon monsters everywhere exhausted the magical power of the trap.

"Is it because of the dungeon monsters? ’

It was a trap of greed. Perhaps it would have posed a greater threat than the dungeon monsters if it had been triggered properly.

Dragon has moved only forward. to follow Skazaha's advice.

‘Bafomet is the last wall on the second floor and the aqueduct. The passageway to the third floor is beyond his seal. All you have to do is look ahead. The king was an extraordinary man. ’

After the gate, five large rooms lead to a straight path. Using Katarina's power, you can see the giant door through the darkness. It was clear that it was a door through the seals of Baphomet.

Yongho, who has only been charging so far, has ordered his servants to pause for a moment.

‘Everyone's stronger. ’

It was more than I expected. In the meantime, Yongho was busy looking back at his own growth, but in the meantime, his followers also made a lot of progress.

Particularly visible was Eligos.

Ofelia has been perceived as a ‘strong' in the dragon's head since she first entered the Mamon family. In the case of Katarina, we were always together, so even the growth of strength felt natural. I was used to it.

But it wasn't Eligos. He was the one who guarded the Mamon family all by himself when they were on the battlefield.

It wasn't everything I showed you in the duel. The opponent was Ophelia, and whether Eligos denies it or not, Eligos values her deeply. Can you really show 'sincerity' in a fight against such a target?

However, the story is different when it comes to dungeon monsters.

Eligos exerts his true power without filtration. Yongho understood why Eligos' next promotion was called 'Tyrant - Tyrant’.

A beast. A beast that can only be described as a hungry beast or a beast.

The gap shocked me because it was the opposite of the normal appearance of Eligos.

Just momentarily, Dragon Hoe thought of when Mamon had just come up to Gaju, and smiled without my knowledge. It was because I remembered the back of a little Eligos who went out to draw water every morning.

Yongho saw Skulls in succession. As far as simple training volumes are concerned, there were no ministers within Mamon family that could catch up with Skull.

So I was more reliable. Furthermore, Skull played a very important role in the battle against Bafomet.

Skazar has identified himself and Skull as the key agents in this battle. The reason was because of the nature of baphomet.

Death.

Baphomet was the incarnation of death from the Cultists of another world. I breathed the breath of death naturally even when I was weakened by it.

Weak people lost their lives just by being exposed to that energy.

Even the strongest have been weakened by their instinctive fears of death.

Only dragons and skulls were able to use their full combat strength even in the face of Baphomet's dying breath.

Dragon Hoes, who had experienced hundreds of similar deaths, could withstand the energy of death.

The undead Skull was already dead, so he felt at peace in Baphomet's death.

It was also because of Bafomet that Skazaha's test was a stopgap experience. Those who fail even Skazaha's test will never be opponents of Baphomet.

Dragon Hoe tapped the solid skull's shoulder at any moment. Skull laughs at the heart of the dragon you can feel without Brigada.

“Skull.”

I didn't rush. I shared the Magical Potions I got from the Arena with the slave horses. The potion Skazaha made worked.

That's about thirty minutes.

I've had enough breathing. The dragon that gave the standby orders to Salami, Bucephalos and Skull troops sprayed the hallway with the lights. After pushing the darkness out, you move forward.

It was a huge bronze door.

I realized that the 'Gate of Hell’, which is also the name of the second floor, points to this door.

There were dozens of people on the door. They were miserable, moaning and crying out in pain.

Dragon vomited deeply and grabbed the door hook. You unleash your own power and open the gates of hell very slowly.

It was full of darkness, like darkness. But I could see. It was more clear that I felt it.

A black creature collapses in the middle of a large cavity. He had a large chain around his neck as well as his limbs, and one of his legs was still connected to the floor.

The door is not yet opened by half. However, the sheer energy of death rushes to you. The black creature vomits and slowly raises its head.

It was smiling. Creepy laughter fills the cavity with the energy of death.

Red eyes.

The one I saw in Skazaha's memory.

The Black Beast shrugs. On the ground with your hands, you raise your torso very slowly. You stare at the dragon with red eyes that glow alone in the darkness.

I was afraid.

I couldn't even compare it to what I saw in my memory. Skazaha's words of weakness make him feel like a ridiculous lie. Death wrapped around his whole body. I could feel hundreds or thousands of eyes. The cry of grumbling souls fills the whole world.

But...

Dragon has opened the door.

It doesn't close. You take a step toward the darkness.

Brigada was triggered momentarily. The slave workers followed their king as did the 12 slave horses of Mamon. I was not immersed in the horrors of death.

I didn't need a horse anymore. Dragon Hoe raises his hand quietly. Like Mamon in memory, you grab the flaming Spear of Crimson Flame from the air. Green greed drives out not only darkness, but the energy of death. The unfinished wonder in the arena radiates a blue water glow that resembles the symbol of Skazaha.

Baphomet is a fanatical place, and the fangtooth soon turns into a roar. Baphomet looks at Mamon from the Dragon Lagoon. That's why I cursed. That's why I was so excited. You rush violently through the sickle of death from the darkness.

The overwhelming death itself.

Dragon ran out in front of him.

As the new king of greed, I met the incarnation of death.
