15 Chap 15: Dungeons are Pretty Much the Same (1/2)
I came back to the Nev city which is the one I was transported to when I came to this world for the first time, I realized there was an adventurers guild here written in the exact same font so I went in to the place and said I had come from a lower world and I wanted to know if they had anything to do with the other adventurers guild. I learned that the adventurers guild is owned by a company named Universe company which sounded pretty strange and they explained to me that they were the first company to start traveling between worlds and after more than 7 million years of traveling they had set up quite the bases in almost every world, they had the most advanced technology and they were the undisputed most powerful company in the known universe. I learned a lot about their technology and all those flashy signs and moving signs in the air seem to be their technology. They also told me that, the company had a virtual universe that you could play games, learn skills, browse internet, eat food, and whatever you wanted to do there was even war games created by the company itself to chose geniuses from the whole universe. I took my adventurers badge out and after checking my level out they changed my adventurers badge to generic level badge I had to pay 10 gold fee but its not that much.
I was looking at the adventurers guild missions ad there was a mission about filling head count and I just took it with me to ask about it to the staff, they told me that there was a dungeon near the city about 500 km away from the city and the dungeon didn't allow any group under 10 people to enter the dungeon. I was shocked since I thought the dungeon was something that the upper worlds created on lower level worlds to progress but turns out the dungeons just came out of nowhere and even the Universe company had no idea why they occurred many gods looked into it but nothing.
I was just about to leave the guild to head for the dungeon thinking it would be easy money and I would see the power of the monsters in this world, I heard a man shouting saying
”Hey man stop I have something to talk to you about”
I turned around and looked to see if it was addressed to me and I couldn't see who said it so I decided to turn back and keep on moving forward but when I turned my head back a man was looking at me from a 10cm distance it gave me quite the creeps and I jumped back a little.
””Wtf man don't appear out of nowhere like that you scared me””
”I wanted to talk to you about the headcount filling mission you accepted, I also wanted to join the same job but I didn't want to have to go to the dungeon in my own since I would be bored on the way can you wait a few minutes so I could get the mission and come back”
I was still thinking wtf you appear out of nowhere and the first thing you say before saying sorry or telling me who you are is for me to wait but I could clearly feel he was more powerful than I am so I just said
””Yeah, sure my name is Brady by the way whats yours””
He didn't even tell me his name and he ran to the counter accepted the mission, the tech here is way better than my old world so the money would be paid automatically upon completion of the quest, He came back and said
”My name is Andy Gill, I am one of the few chosen geniuses of this year, I placed first in both the gun destruction and sword's way, I am currently trying to hunt the people we are going into the dungeon with”
””Yeah sure and I am a god of destruction nice to meet you””
”Hey don't joke around about gods of destruction I have met a few of them and they are clearly nuts okay also you are just generic level, but your body is more powerful than mine when I was in generic level, I suggest you use the universal ring to enter a few games created by the Universe company, they most probably will choose you for their next batch of geniuses if you have even the sliver of ability in learning fighting skills”
””Wait you were serious I thought you were joking around””
”Nah, dead serious”
Then there was silence for about three minutes before Andy started talking that is, I am not really bothered by his talking and he is telling me all the tactics he used in his battles in the virtual world to get to number one on both games and told me about a few privileges he had after entering Universe company, I also asked about why short distance travel wasn't used turns out the amount of resources needed to teleport someone from a point to another doesn't change with the difference, and the resources needed might be small to boot the system up once but it would cost a lot to keep the constant teleports, and also the price would be really high too. the road wasn't that long and I didn't learn that much from him except a few more tactics on the games
We reached the dungeon entrance and there was a small townish thing next to the dungeon entrance called zone 2DD1 meaning it was a D city next to a dungeon in a 2nd grade world and it was the first city to be built around the dungeon, turns out onlg big cities have their name and the rest of the cities are just given numbers and letters as a codename to explain the city. The adventure team was staying at the inn called adventurers paradise, after checking in all the alcohol and food was free and you had chances to call over woman, man company for low prices that was why it was called adventurers paradise. We entered the inn and checked into the pre booked rooms for us the other adventurers in our team was actually pretty friendly since they booked the rooms for us.
