Drip drip drip
The following day ,at dawn the young adventurer woke up earlier that he planned due to his hard bedding location, indeed sleeping on a rocky mountainous surface doesn't provide good sleeping environment at all
Chris right now is proof of that, feeling his scalp being itchy, aching and uncomfortable, he got up and quickly did some stretching to make him think about something other than the uncomfortable feeling not only on his head but back too
" URG, this is why I hate camping in this place haaa(took a deep breath) ... Well then let's get this mission done shall I? "
After eating a quick breakfast while making sure to eat and drink just enough to not affect his battle prowess, Chris began climbing up the tall mountain
Bark bark
" hmm? oh !(Draws out his sword) {Mountain wolves, 3 of them} "
Above of the young adventurer who was walking up the rocky mountain were three giant gray wolves ,being much taller than the average man this species of wolf were considered barely within an elite's capabilities and are tougher than normal wolves because of their sturdier bones and due
Grrrrr
Chris could easily make out the fact that these 3 wolves were probably the scouts of the area, however even said scouts of this species wouldn't hesitate to attack him ,after all ,humans below a certain rank were fodders to them and unfortunately Chris wasn't much in terms of strength
"{ Well it's not completely hopeless(glances at his sword) my sword is made of magi-steel, so I can cut through their fur and } "
GRAAAA
As the beast jumped on the adventurer ,Chris already anticipated how they would move, as a veteran adventurer he was no stranger to these beasts, these mountain wolves tend to attack in a certain pattern in a group after all, the strongest leads the attack while the others flanks their prey from the rear so
Dash
GRAAA
As one of the wolf of the 3 ,the strongest jumped ahead, Chris who instead of jumping back dashed forward slashed the wolf and split it horizontally through its jaws, the magisteel blade met some resistance but Chris who strengthened his sword through mana killed the first and then used basic swordsman foot work to narrowly slip through the other 2 wolves who jumped him from the sides and attack them from behind with a wide slash and sharp stab attacks
" hmm "
Looking at the dead bodies of the wolves he was rather certain that the pack would get here soon from the scent of their dead pack members so Chris quickly took out a perfume from his utility belt ,it was a perfume to mask one's scent
After using the perfume he quickly got out of there after taking some of the wolves's fangs, he rather regretted not being able to get the pelt of the other two the he killed but nothing could be done now
Not long after that ,after climbing up and walking through the rugged, dangerous and small roads ,Chris could finally see the familiar dungeon once more after a long time
Looking at the dungeon's entrance he forced a smile out and thought to himself
{ Aah the days when I was green and new, I remember those days when I first explored this place }
The time he fell for a mimic
The time when he was swallowed whole by a giant slime
And the time he actually got lost for 3 days
" Truly, many valuable yet hateful memories"
Chris stated with a big frown ,but nevertheless he went in said dungeon without much reluctance ,he was an upper elite now after all ,not a weak and new Warrior rank adventurer
And with that he entered the Illina dungeon
"< Ember >"
Brr
With a small flame on his left palm ,Chris walked through the dark cave while keeping a basic sense enhancement spell called < Double senses > active at all times, it did consume mana but it's consumption was low ,so Chris who was rather a cautious man favored to be safe the sorry
" hmm the walls are damp { Seems like the boss monster changed again ,an ice type or something that can affect temperature} Well I can only report this { After I clear out the lower level monsters I'm out ,a boss monster is out of my league anyway } "
In this world dungeons can remain even after beating the boss monster ,and another boss monster would be born after the dungeon get's enough mana , however this can be prevented if one destroys the dungeon core located in the boss room however by doing that the dungeon will disappear along with all it's valuable resources like mana crystals and dungeon herbs and other treasures
But as usual Chris wasn't after such treasures as those kinds were only in the bossroom, he was just gonna do his job and after diving in the dungeon for 3 more minutes Chris began encountering many lower level monsters like goblins, blue cobras ,giant roaches and cave bats ,and as per his request he began to kill the monsters and take out their cores as proof all in all it took 2 days of constant diving and monster slaying to fully clear out the lower level monsters ,all in all he sustained some injuries like bite wounds from the giant roaches and venom attacks from the blue cobras, some few cuts from the goblins were also there and his mental fatigue too was no laughing matter, sleeping in the dungeon was no easy task after all ,yes he did not sleep and used stamina potions to last 2 days without sleeping so he was mentally tired as hell
Bleeding with his armor in tatters ,his gauntlet and boots bloodied, his sword also lost its edge after the non-stop slaughtering, he had to use 3 mp potion and 2 hp potions, and now he only had 3 of each left .
Sitting straight down with his back against the dungeon wall ,Chris took a sigh of relief and took a moment of rest while looking at the big door at the end of the tunnel
He had ventured into the deeper levels to take care of the larger group of monsters after all and here he was in front of the boss room, looking at the giant door while resting
Haaa
" It's cold { It must be an ice type boss , I'm certain at this point } (turned his gaze to his sword with an exasperated expression) I can already hear Mr Glavis (sighs) welp "
Standing back up slowly he sheathed his sword and turned around
" I'm sleepy {First thing I'll do is sleep outside ,even if the mountain is hard af} Humm I wish I had a magic bag { It would be dope to carry my own sleeping bag }"
He then took a step to head back up but then after a few steps
KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK
He abruptly stops and quickly drew his sword and turned around and faced the door with a battle stance
Fear , adrenaline and terror started to corrupt his clarity but he held firm,
{ - It came from there, the boss room, someone, something knocked the damn door from the other }
KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK
Chris : " (grips the blade tighter and slowly steps back upwards) "
Creaaaaaak
However before the door was out of his sight it opened from within
