Chapter 20: Chapter 19: Low-Tier Dungeon, Part III (2/2)
The first floor of this dungeon was larger than those of other dungeons, and two thousand devas could hunt simultaneously without any problems. The second floor was similar.
I made it my mission today to clear the third floor. In my past life, I came so many times to hunt in this dungeon, but never made it to the third floor. That floor was where boss monsters spawned.
I've never actually been there, but boss raids were news stations' favorite stories to cover, and I saw plenty of videos of raids on air.
Unlike the first and second floors, the third floor was built to be narrower than the other two. Once you go went down to the third floor, there was a room filled with elite monsters. You had to clear that room before you could enter the boss room.
There was also a safe zone between the rooms where you could safely rest up before moving on.
”I hunted so many times in this dungeon, but I don't think I could ever have dreamed about entering the boss room. This time, there's no one controlling anything here, so I'm going to try to kill that boss.”
I continued forward, with confidence exuding from me.
-----------------
I sprinted down the path leading to the second floor.
I had hunted in the dungeon so many times before that I knew the paths like the back of my hand and moved forward without hesitation.
I only hunted the monsters that were in my direct path. I didn't need to stop for anything. All I needed was one hit to kill them
As I finished off a swarm of orcs, another group appeared, noticed me, and charged towards my position.
I saw them rushing me and took a nearly dead orc grunt straggler by the foot, spun him around and threw him like a shot put.
”Arrrgh!” Seven orcs crashed down like bowling pins. I threw the orc so hard that the orcs that were hit died instantly.
[You have leveled up.]
[You have leveled up.]
”Strike!”
I picked up the golden rings that appeared as the bodies of the orcs disappeared.
”A penny saved is a penny earned.” I couldn't afford to miss even a single golden ring right now!
”Hehehe!” I was having as much fun hunting the orcs as I would at an amusement park.
I wanted to hunt all the orcs in every nook and cranny of this floor, but my plan was to reach the third floor as soon as possible, and leave the farther orcs alone. I only attacked the orcs that were directly on the path to the second floor.
I took the most direct path to the second floor, but it still took me eighty minutes to cross it. That was just how big the dungeon was.
”Let's see here. I've gained six levels so far.”
I only hunted casually, but the level-up messages from before showed up three times.
”Well, it doesn't look like I have to allocate my stat points quite yet. Well, I'll need to get to the safe zone to even have a drink of water, so I should quickly clear the second floor and make it to the third floor.”
I didn't bring any food or water with me when I came to the dungeon, so I had to be quick.
[Orc archer straggler]
[Orc solider straggler]
[Regular orc archer]
[Regular orc soldier]
As I entered the second floor, I saw orcs different from those on the first floor. These orcs were physically bigger and didn't have ”Weak” in front of their names.
”But that doesn't matter to me!”
