Chapter 422 The Special Mechanisms of the Dungeon
"Sword Maiden" Ais Wallenstein, along with a group of injured adventurers, were swept away by the out-of-control elevator and plunged into the sixty-fifth floor—a demonic realm that had been assimilated.
Orario is determined to defeat the corrupt fairies.
The entire city has entered a state of emergency preparedness!
Next, they discussed how to conquer the enemy. In the guild hall, all the major forces gathered together. Roy, Finn, Hedin, Leon, and Chun Corbrand—all were renowned adventurers.
Also present were guild staff and guild leader Royman, among others.
This could very well be a meeting that influences the course of history, and everyone's words and actions will be recorded.
The gods reside on the thirtieth floor of the Tower of Babel.
Such a lively event was a fatal temptation for these amusement-seeking gods, who couldn't wait to get deeply involved.
But Hermes stopped the gods.
Hermes' eyes burned with fervor. "Gentlemen," he cried, "this is the story of children from the lower realms. Promise me that no matter what happens next, you will not attempt to use your 'omniscient and omnipotent' powers. Leave everything to them!"
"Oooooo!"
The gods erupted in a deafening roar of cheers.
Rather than "god-made heroes," they longed to see beings beyond "divine will" and miracles created by children from the lower realms. Hermes was able to persuade all the gods so easily thanks to the appearance of Roy.
The gods have come to believe in the existence of "miracles," created by children from the lower realms.
Turn the impossible into the possible!
In the center of the spacious hall stands a giant eye crystal, Fels' latest creation, capable of connecting multiple eye crystals to transmit images and sounds.
All commanders participating in the operation will carry an eye crystal for communication.
This is also the general command post.
"Amazing, absolutely amazing!"
The gods marveled at the incredible feat of transmitting information across space—a technique usually reserved for deities. Yet, this child from the mortal realm had managed to master it.
At this moment, the gods observed the city through this giant eye crystal, seeing the sweat and effort of the children in the mortal realm, as well as the most central place.
Public meeting room.
"That abominable filth hides at a depth of sixty-five floors. Very few adventurers can reach that floor; it's best to go in as a small team of high-level adventurers," Hedin said.
No one objected to this.
The sixty-fifth floor is the end of the "Glacier Realm". Monsters of levels 5 and 6 are everywhere, as well as floor masters who have reached the upper level of LV.8. Very few adventurers can fight there. Now it has been assimilated into the Demon Realm by the tainted fairy spirits, which further increases the difficulty of conquering it.
Unless you're an adventurer with a special role, like Haruhime or Amide, anyone below LV.6 will be excluded; going in is suicide.
"It will take at least three days for that filthy fairy to completely devour Ais. Considering the journey, we'll set off in six hours!" Finn said.
"Um!"
"no problem!"
The crowd responded, explaining that it would take them quite a while to get from the first floor to the sixty-fifth floor.
The members of Alphia, Ota, and Freya's Familia, who had just fought a major battle, also needed time to recover.
In a few words, the group finalized their overall strategy: other members of the clan would clear a path leading directly to the deeper levels, allowing the main force to conserve as much physical and mental energy as possible to enter the sixty-fifth level unimpeded, defeat the corrupted spirits and evil gods, and rescue Ais.
"etc!"
Just then, Roy, who had been silent until now, spoke up, immediately drawing everyone's attention.
Facing the gazes of the crowd, Roy slowly said, "A large number of adventurers entering the dungeon at the same time will cause the dungeon to 'go berserk.'"
The dungeon has gone berserk? The group looked at each other in bewilderment.
Leon asked, "Roy, what does this mean?"
Roy said, "It means exactly what it says. The dungeon will ignore the cycle and endlessly spawn monsters, including the floor bosses. For example, Udeos, which Ais and Riveria just defeated, will regenerate immediately!"
"What?!"
Hedin, Finn, and the others frowned. As high-level adventurers who dealt with dungeons all day long, they had never heard of such a thing.
Not only were the people present bewildered, but even the gods on the other side of the Tower of Babel were filled with confusion and excitement.
So this is a mechanic in dungeons!
Hermes took a deep look at Roy, who appeared in the giant eye crystal, and thought to himself, "This boy always manages to surprise me."
If anyone else had said this, people might not have believed it, but Roy was different. He was the leader of the Astrea Familia and the strongest adventurer, and any information he provided was worth their attention.
This is the impact of power and status.
Roy didn't explain much, but instead looked up at the ceiling, "Uranus!"
Upon hearing the name "Uranus," everyone was startled; he was the city's guardian deity.
"really!"
"As Roy said, when a large number of adventurers invade the dungeon simultaneously, an anomaly occurs—the dungeon is taken aback, and powerful monsters are forcibly born!"
A moment later, Uranus’s deep and aged voice echoed through the room.
"!!!"
Everyone's pupils widened in shock. The information Roy had given had been personally verified by the great god Uranus, so they had no choice but to believe it. It was truly a thorny issue.
Finn's face darkened slightly as he asked, "Great God Uranus, why is this happening?"
The sudden information caught them off guard. If they couldn't get a large number of adventurers into the dungeon to open up a path, the main team would be exhausted from breaking through from the first floor to the sixty-fifth floor. How could they possibly defeat that filthy fairy?
Everyone awaited Uranus's answer.
The same goes for Roy.
As high-level adventurers who deal with dungeons all day long, they can be said to be the people who know that demon cave best in the world. But just when they think they have completely figured out the dungeon, the other party always gives them a little "surprise" in unexpected places.
The gods used their divine power within the dungeon to create an even more powerful black monster—the God Assassin!
The destruction of a large area of a floor gave birth to a specialized monster—the calamity "Zagnat"!
When a large number of adventurers flood into the dungeon at the same time, monsters will be spawned infinitely, including the dungeon boss!
Various special mechanisms make adventurers who enter the dungeon suffer greatly.
Uranus remained silent for a long time in response to Finn's question. After a long silence, just when everyone thought they would not get an answer and were about to give up,
The aged voice rang out again, tinged with a hint of helplessness, "—It will mistakenly believe it to be the 'Agreed Day'."
It was invaded before it even arrived.
"The appointed day?"
Everyone frowned. What did this mean? Whose pact did the dungeon make? The gods?
More questions arose in everyone's minds.
No matter how much they pressed him for details, the great god Uranus remained silent about the "matter of the dungeon," something only the gods knew but refused to reveal.
The Tower of Babel has thirty stories.
Faced with this topic, the hundreds of gods present fell silent, and the hall was deathly still.
The gods look into their noses, and their noses reflect their hearts.
"Look, this belt of mine comes from the East."
"What's so great about that? I still have a luminous pearl!"
"What! Your child's grandmother is getting married today? I absolutely have to contribute money as a gift!"
Someone shouted something, and the hall became lively again, like a bustling market, but no deity mentioned the "underground city".
As usual, he was fooled by the gods.
Helpless, the group temporarily abandoned their pursuit of the truth, as the most important task at present was to defeat the corrupt fairy.
Finn looked at Roy with a hint of gratitude in his eyes. He was surprised that the dungeon had such a mechanism. If he hadn't known this information, who knows what might have happened.
-
"Okay!" Roy nodded at the other person.
This "large number of adventurers" refers to quantity, not quality. They need to control the number of adventurers entering the dungeon at the same time to avoid causing a stress response in the dungeon, ideally keeping it at a critical point.
Guild headquarters, underground prayer room.
"Uranus, does the dungeon really have such a mechanism?" Fels looked at the old god on the prayer altar and asked incredulously. Even he, a sage who had lived for hundreds of years, had never heard of such a thing.
"Um!"
Uranus replied, "The other gods are unaware; only I, who have been constantly praying to the underground city, have noticed the subtle changes."
Fels was shocked. The underground city was indeed unfathomable. They had almost suffered a great loss.
"Fels, the real problem isn't here."
Uranus's voice rang out again, "For thousands of years, this mechanism has never been triggered. Only in this era, with the number of adventurers reaching its peak, is it possible for the dungeon to feel a 'threat.'"
"How could that be!"
Fels' body stiffened, and the resourceful man instantly understood Uranus's meaning.
Since it wasn't triggered and there's no record of it, this is information only Uranus knows. How did that boy—Roy—find out of it?
Fels felt a strange sense of dread.
Things that even other gods didn't know were casually mentioned by Roy, as if the other party was shrouded in a veil of mystery. Every time he thought he had seen through the other party, he found that it was only the tip of the iceberg.
Who exactly is that young man?
Based on the information received from the different clans, Roy, Finn, and Hedin arranged for members of different clans to enter the dungeon in advance to clear monsters and open up paths.
To avoid a large influx of adventurers into the dungeon, they try to select high-level adventurers.
It must be at least LV.3, or even LV.4 or higher.
All the level 5 and level 4 members of the Ganesha Familia participated in the battle, while Freya and Heron were tasked with maintaining order in the city. They used charm to temporarily control the situation.
-
The main squad that entered the 65th floor consisted of twelve people: Roy, Ryu, Tione, Haruhime, Alphia, Ota, Allen, Leon, Finn, Riveria, Grace, and Amid.
The lineup they've put together is absolutely amazing!
Apart from Chun Ji and Amid, all of them are LV.7 and are world-renowned top adventurers!
But the people's hearts did not relax. Without sufficient pressure, how could they possibly put aside their conflicts and choose to join forces?
This time we'll have to face at least three level 9 monsters!
If they were just irrational monsters, that would be one thing, but the filthy fairy spirits possess intelligence, and are ancient great fairy spirits, wielding magical power capable of destroying the heavens and the earth.
It's definitely not comparable to a regular LV.9!
The meeting ended, and with five hours remaining before entering the underground city, everyone dispersed to prepare for their own journeys.
School district behemoth.
Leon solemnly requested the supreme god, "Lord Baldr, please help me level up!"
Long before his journey to the Underworld ended, Leon had already accomplished the feat of becoming a Level 8, but in order to maximize his stats, he deliberately held back from leveling up.
Now we encounter the true form of the filthy immortal spirit who is being punished.
Leon knew that the time to upgrade had come; the city needed him to reach LV.8 combat power.
"Can!"
Baldr would not refuse his followers. As the divine blood dripped in, a blessing appeared, displaying Leon's current stats: Strength S999, Endurance S998, Agility A886, Dexterity B765, and Magic B759.
After the upgrade is completed.
The old Grace panel has disappeared, and a new All-I panel has emerged, the difference being that LV.7 has been upgraded to LV.8!
Leon didn't feel that surge of power. The upgraded power needed to be neutralized through battles and training before he could gradually adapt.
But he is now a genuine LV.8!
With Chunji's level up to LV.9, and the added boost from the magic "Round Table Flame", she is strong enough to directly confront a LV.9 monster.
The Loki Familia, Twilight Mansion.
With Ais having fallen to the 65th floor, Loki and his Familia members were the most anxious, forming a long queue to update their stats and maximize their strength before the raid began.
Finn has entered the dungeon to oversee operations.
Riveria, Grace, Bert, and others conserved their energy and maintained their weapons; they were all members of the first and second echelons.
The entire Loki Familia harbored a burning desire to settle scores with the evil god Dionysus.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
The crisp sound of metal striking metal rang out continuously. It was the workshop of the Hephaestus Familia, the Gubernium Familia, and other forging families, where weapons and armor were crafted free of charge for those participating in the operation, and their own armories were opened to the public.
Now is not the time to calculate economic costs.
If the Filthy Fairy uses the "Fairy Six Rings," it can obliterate Orario. Defeating that monster is urgent and everyone has a responsibility. Those excellent equipment are a reward for the brave! This operation is extremely dangerous; no one knows what will happen.
All factions are preparing for their upcoming conquest, and Roy is no exception.
He led his girls to frantically improve their stats.
Name: Roy Level: 7
Strength: 655 → 866 (A)
Endurance: 360→702 (B)
Dexterity: 1398 (SSS)
Agility: 240 → 567 (D)
Magic Power: 823 → 982 (S)
After his battle with Otto, and with the growth he's experienced over this period, Roy's total stats have increased by 1039. Combined with his previous limit-breaking stats, in his normal state, he can now hold his own against a level 8 powerhouse.
The most important thing is to accomplish this great task!
Roy can reach LV.8 at any time; now he's using dungeon rewards to gain higher stats.
