Dungeon Reset

< 293 Dungeon Reset >

* * *

One day, an American scholar named Alan Weissman asked the world,

"What would happen if all the humans disappeared on Earth? ’

As time goes on, many changes will occur, but in the end it becomes a ‘forest’.

It was the same with Dungeons.

It was the end of the dungeons a long time ago when all the meta-humans, including humans, disappeared.

Most wooden buildings collapse in 50 years if there is no one to take care of them, no matter how prosperous the cities have been.

No matter how hard the masonry building is, a few years later, a green sprout will sprout over it, and the roots will drop on the wall and eventually bring it down.

What happens when more time passes?

Increasingly, artificial traces of the past fade away, leaving only dense forests above.

Of course, there was also a ‘special’ architecture that remained in its appearance to the end.

That's the ruins.

It was a magical place to endure the winds of time.

In the dungeon, however, there were areas with special blessings in the forest itself, not in architecture.

[It sounds very advantageous to say ‘Aha’, but in other words, there is also a ‘cursed’ forest. Grrr.]

Lugal introduced the dungeon he manages with an unfair look:

Stage-3 Harun.

[Welcome to Harun, my fiery forest.]

“Harun?”

Bloop! Bloop! Bloop!

By the power of the feather, the burning eagle forest unfolds in front of the Jungle, arriving at Stage-3.

[Oh, it's so hot in here. I'm going to be a bunny roast if I look at it.]

The rabbit shuffles around, scrubbing his hands.

I didn't see any green plants that needed to be seen by the forest.

Instead of grass and leaves, there was a raggedy flower on a branch that was burning like the tongue of a serpent.

My face was burning just looking at it.

Jungdown washed his face with both hands to cool off.

“What are you doing here? Is there a fire? ”

[No, Harun used to be like this all the time. Even if the fire cools, as soon as you reset the dungeon, it starts to burn again like this.]

The explaining Rugal folds his arms in a more rigid manner than usual.

The rabbit asked him.

[Why are you so excited? Are you excited to be in your neighborhood?]

[Glug? What does that mean? I'm the same as always.]

Party!

[…….]

Unlike a horse, Rugal's tail is stretched upward, with no precedent.

Suddenly, a small fireball fell on the forehead of the rabbit who was making a momentary look.

Tadak.

What's all of a sudden? Why is it raining fire from the sky!?]

Lugal smiles at the silly appearance of the jumping rabbit, startled.

[Glug! Sometimes I do. You'll have to be careful about everything here.]

[Hehe. What should I do? There's a hole in my hat!]

I didn't know I was wearing a hat, but now I see that the rain is constantly metallurgical.

The rabbit looks sad, takes off its black fur and blows it afterwards, and looks straight down.

[I'll never wear a cloth here. Be careful...]

“Huh?"

Turns out, Jungdown was wearing a golden helmet, avoiding all odds.

The rabbit was sore for a moment.

[You vile mortal! I don't want you to be the only one wearing that!]

“Hmm, I'll never wear a cloth in these woods. ”

[I just said that! You copycat!]

“I tried to make you an umbrella, but you didn't need one. ”

[Now that I think about it, I guess I said it later. I am the copycat.]

A bunny who desperately grabs the shoulders of a muttering bunny and smiles brightly.

My mouth twitched slightly.

Much like doll clothes, the wardrobe of a rabbit was mostly made of cloth.

“I need to make some more of the umbrellas I made for Bahamut the other day. ”

Jungdown once provided an umbrella for snowmen who wanted to avoid the sun with a fire-resistance option.

I didn't even have to make it myself because I had already made it once.

“Shadow Secrets. ”

“Meow?”

“Can you take care of the fireworks falling from the sky? ”

“Meiaang.”

Shadow Craftsmen began manufacturing livestock on his orders.

The rest of the Shadow Cats start swallowing fireflies, their tails tilting and circling.

Two of them climbed over the head of the rabbit and stopped the fireworks falling from the sky one by one.

The rabbit bursts into elasticity.

[Khh! Shadow cats!]

“Yes! They're Stage-4 animals, invincible in the lower dungeons! ”

Light toys and snacks for shadow cats.

If I swallowed even a mouthful of fire filled with light, I quickly lost my heat and cooled off.

But not everything went smoothly.

[Glug. Harun isn't this relaxed in the middle of a dungeon.]

You hear Rugal snoring.

Choo-choo!

Suddenly, the ears of the shadow cats glanced back.

Bloop!

Suddenly, the flames surround you, as if you were living creatures.

No, he was actually alive.

Bloop! Bloop! Bloop!

All of a sudden, red fireflies start flying like bees, surrounding the jungle and rabbits!

[Ugh! Something's wrong! Fireworms are coming!]

“ ……! ”

Stone Lagoon used to be a Flaming Insect that isn't dying right now!

However, unlike the skill of the lagoon, the fire insects living in Haroon in the burning forest were larger in size and much stronger in firepower.

[Glug. You'd better be careful. The forest is swarming with adult flamethrowers, taking it all away.]

The adult flamethrowers explode fiercely in front of Rugal's eyes.

What-wham-wham! Kuang!!

Incredible explosive power!

It was different from the skills of Seok Jeong-ho I had seen in the past.

[Glug. What do you think? With this much explosive power, you could still take damage, no matter how much armor you're wearing.]

“Oh, it's hot! As soon as we get there, it's chaotic! ”

It was as Rugal said.

I quickly retreated, but I was burnt to death by a flamethrower explosion.

The heat flows through the gap between the armor and the armor.

He calls all the Shadow Cats in front of him.

“Stop making the mountain and stop all those bugs! ”

“Miang!”

“Huh? Did you finish it already? ”

One of the Sand's two Grimbells grabbed a pair of just finished umbrellas.

Jungdown gladly accepted it.

“Who do you look like so fast? Oops, looks like me, doesn't it? ”

However, since you haven't enhanced it yet, you don't have a fire-resistance option.

He nods coolly.

“Let's go for a little tune-up, shall we? Gate installed!”

[Install the gate.]

Paaaaaah!

Suddenly, a golden gate was created in the middle of the burning forest.

It's not a floating island, so you can set up a gate anywhere.

Luggal was greatly embarrassed.

[Glug!? What! Where are you going instead of exploring the dungeon!]

“Yes, home. ”

[Whew, it's hot. Good. I'm gonna go home and get some air.]

[Hey, wait! Grrrrrrr!]

[Peep.]

Pa!

Hey, hey!]

A bunny and a jungle that vanishes into the gate without a clue.

You bastards! I never thought I'd escape the dungeon!]

Rugal didn't know what to do.

In fact, he had never properly experienced the Jungdown attack on a dungeon as a helper.

Until now, he had no jurisdiction at all, so no matter what Jungdown did, he considered him as someone else.

Of course I did.

So far, it's definitely not his job.

Who would have imagined that a human who had already crossed Stage -6 would now come back down to Stage -3?

Rugal lets go and shouts Solia's name.

[Solia! What to do in this case!]

[Is that so?]

Owl.

At that time, a white owl appeared over Rugal's head.

Solia looks embarrassed.

Solia has only seen regular participants so far.

She never thought that as soon as the participant arrived at the dungeon, she would open the gate and escape.

[Can you open their gates?]

(Grunting)

[Don't be mad! I didn't know!]

[Yay!]

Food duck!

* * *

Death Mountains summit.

Instead, Jungdown and the rabbit appear inside an open gate on the altar of the temple.

[bam! Here I am!]

“Wow, what took you so long to get here? You've grown a lot of potatoes. ”

Jungdown looked proud when he saw the potatoes that he had planted before growing well.

But it grew so much that it was a skirt.

Alpha was very sad.

< Ah, I can't believe the battle has become a jungle…. >

You prick the fertilizer, and the potato stalks are almost as thick as a wooden column.

The shape of the plants that twisted the participants' ankles with thin canes was nowhere to be found, and it was the height of the world.

“Then let's strengthen the mountain first... Huh? ”

I stopped at a moment when I put my hands on the altar, singing a nostril.

Sararak.

The silver dust falls around your body.

Then the little burns I had worn in Harun were getting better and better.

< The blessing of the world number. >

“Wow, this is really cool. Huh?”

I was delighted.

However, his eyes suddenly widened.

It was dark under the lamp.

Since they were too close to the altar, they will find Ertera's body, crouching right behind him.

The mouth of the rabbit snapped open simultaneously.

“Wow, what is this? It's amazing!”

[Bravo! Bravo!]

Ertera has changed tremendously.

I couldn't find any white bones left in the past, like the Dinosaur Museum.

The golden capillaries in the ashes seemed to be filled beautifully yesterday, but I couldn't even see them anymore.

< Rejoice and worship! Erthea's resurrection is imminent! >

That's what the Alpha said!

A whole year of golden fibers were stuffed over Hertia's bones!

If there's a dinosaur anatomy class at the university, maybe you can use it as a teaching material!

The rabbit bursts into elasticity.

[Hiya, it's so beautiful! I thought resurrection would be even more disgusting, but all the blood and flesh is made of light!]

< Erthea, the dragon of life, is made up of living energy. In the past, he was called the Dragon of Light. >

[Dragon of Light! Cool!]

It was a sight for titles!

Instead of even being pierced, he was blessing Ertera to the warm sun that had fallen on the ceiling of the temple.

Truly spectacular!

I felt the extreme wonder of Ertera making me want to kneel down and worship myself if I could see the lesser ones.

But Jungdown was fine.

Not because I was angry, but because my heart had already gone to the bean field.

It was a real bean field.

“Well, I'm going to have to plant some more Dungeon Beans here. ”

The rabbit snapped.

[You want to farm in this yard!? This guy has no empathy!]

“What if kids like Solia come in here later? We need to defend ourselves. ”

[You're a sympathizer. I admire that.]

It was a rabbit that quickly changed its stance.

Alpha was pleased.

< It's so nice to see you as the main character of the temple. In that sense, there is something essential to Erstea's resurrection in the future. >

“What?”

< What every living thing has. It's warmth. >
