185 – 178.Water knows the answer-8
Following the trajectory of the dragon’s breath, the ground was hollowed out and several layers of walls collapsed.
Thanks to the protection given by Fukeados, he did not die even if he was hit with the breath.
Instead, it was pushed back by the shock wave and the whole body was shattered along with the wall, so if it wasn’t for the troll’s resilience, it might have been crippled.
“Are you okay?”
“How is it? Please be more honest than that. Did you mind that I slapped you earlier?”
“…… I can’t deny it.”
Looking at his personality when he was making fun of his daughter, he was not a very popular dragon.
A blue dragon that smiles broadly and seems to have a bit of an afterthought.
Unsurprisingly, while feeling relieved about my slapping, I kept it in my heart.
‘But how do you send a breath that will crush the bones of your whole body at the prospective son-in-law… ….’
It was a shame because there was a protection, but the monster without the protection had oxidized and disappeared without a trace.
As well as the breath of René, who is of mixed blood, the breath of the dragon was unmatched and dangerous.
At the very least, I should be prepared so that I won’t be hit by Ignit’s breath.
“Ehh… !”
From noble mtl dot com
With a short sigh, I stood up, clearing away the remains of the collapsed wall.
Bone broken by the troll’s blood finished repairing, and the body returned to its original state.
As long as it wasn’t for a fatal heart-bursting wound, it became a body that could continue fighting with a little recovery time.
I would like to express my infinite gratitude to Hades for providing troll blood once again.
“Keep going down.”
“I do.”
As I walked out beyond the collapsed wall, the wall was restored to its original condition.
Furthermore, the space where the monster was fought turned into a passage again with a moment of darkness.
Isn’t the dungeon itself a creature with a will?
It was such a strange cave that I had such doubts.
“The next floor. It’s shorter this time than last time.”
“Did the monster you just fought come out last time?”
“No, it was to the extent that sea creatures that had changed somewhat hideously were lurking there.”
“It seems that the difficulty of the dungeon has risen exponentially.”
“I think so too.”
The first floor was said to be a safe zone, but eyeballs that shoot laser beams appeared.
On the second floor, an unidentified monster appeared and chilled the conversation.
The 3rd floor must be very different from the 3rd floor that Fukeados broke through in the past.
I couldn’t even imagine what it would be like from the 4th floor onwards.
“If it continues like this, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to give up early and go back.”
“You are telling a very realistic story. I thought you were an adventurous young man.”
“Because an adventure is only possible if you have a life attached to it.”
As he tapped his neck and laughed hard, Fukeados’ eyes were filled with disappointment.
His rating seems to be lowered, but it doesn’t matter.
Because it’s better than losing your life meaninglessly over a foolish challenge.
“If you are afraid, you can go back. Let me dig out the secrets of the dungeon by myself.”
“Anyway, are you okay? There is a high possibility that things have changed even after the 3rd floor, which Fukeados-sama couldn’t go to.”
“Who do you think I am? I am a proud blue dragon, the strongest species that will not back down even if I am an alien being… !”
As Fukeados’s eyes changed fiercely, the level of flesh that tingled his skin rose.
Dragon Fear.
The coercion emitted by the strongest species creates a sense of fear that the lower species cannot resist.
For me, who had experienced through Breeze earlier, it was only a minor threat.
“Okay. Then I’ll leave the work behind to Fukeados-sama, and I’ll go outside first…….”
Click-!
The moment I turned my back and was about to leave.
A strange sound came from under my feet.
As I lowered my head, a hollow floor came into my field of vision.
It was an ominous, inexhaustible ominous sign.
“f*ck….”
Knock-!
Before I could get my foot back, the floor I was standing on split in half and opened wide.
A stepping trap that I have experienced in the Dungeon of Lust.
I tried to hold on to the wall while looking down at the bottom where I couldn’t see the floor, but…….
“What is this?!”
Black arms appeared from below, gripping my legs tightly and pulling me down.
I tried diligently to shake off it by rolling my feet, but the more I tried, the more tenaciously the black arm clung to me.
The surface of the wall I was holding on to last became smooth and I was dragged underground.
It was a part where I could clearly feel the dungeon’s will to not give me the option of escaping.
Even if he uses magic, he will surely get in the way of some kind.
Fortunately, since it is underwater, there are no mishaps such as death by falling.
“Really, how can each dungeon I visit never be resolved according to my will… ….”
[So isn’t life fun?]
“Because it’s not fun!”
I was left alone with Prach in a dark space.
Fortunately, it became a luxury to bring a glowstone in preparation for such an occasion.
I took out a glowing glowstone from my pocket and illuminated the surroundings.
A room with the same area as the space where you fought the monster.
I wondered if I should fight the monster again, but I couldn’t feel any energy threatening me anywhere.
The problem was that there was no door to the exit.
As if I had to go back to where I came in, I looked up at the ceiling, but I couldn’t see the hole I came out of.
Total isolation.
You may have to destroy the wall to escape.
It was when he took out his sword to make a clean cut.
[Contractor, stop what you were about to do for a while!]
“Why is that?”
[If you listen quietly while holding your breath, you will hear a sound.]
As Prach said, it was quiet, but there was nothing particularly special about it.
Maybe it’s because it’s in the water where the vibration of the sound of the original body is difficult to transmit.
I closed my eyes while sitting cross-legged and exhausted all my strength.
The result of detecting every trivial sound by focusing only on the ears.
Again…. Again….
The sound of a ball bouncing in the distance came from afar.
I opened my eyes and immediately walked in the direction I heard the sound.
It might be another trap, so I proceeded little by little while looking around.
Again-! Again-!
The subtle sound became clearer and clearer.
And at the same time, the glowstone that had been emitting light before had lost its effectiveness and turned into powder.
Trapped in darkness again, I did not stop.
Just when I thought I was close enough, I cautiously stretched out my arm.
A bouncy texture felt at your fingertips.
When I carefully touched it with a sense of volume that filled both hands, I could tell that it was a resilient sphere.
I don’t know exactly what kind of object it is because there is no light.
Just remembering that the sound stopped while I was holding it, I could only tell that it was a sphere bouncing on the floor.
“Prach, what do you see in your eyes?”
[The outline is confirmed through sound waves, but the exact identity is not known.]
“Hmm, then… Wow!”
Burrr-!
While guessing the identity, the sphere in my hand trembled.
I was so shocked that I took my hand away without even realizing it, but the sphere stuck to my hand as soon as the sound of it bouncing on the floor ended.
“I can’t. I’ll have to try light magic for this… !”
[Good idea. That would be good for your mental health.]
There might be a separate variable, so I didn’t use it as part of it, but it wasn’t the time to go blind.
In order to clearly point out the identity of the voluntarily moving sphere, I raised my magic power.
Then an unexpected incident occurred.
“What, what!”
[Why is that?]
“The sphere is eating my hand nibble!”
What had stuck like glue until just now was wrapped around my right hand this time.
I hurriedly pushed it away with my left hand, but even my left hand was sucked into the sphere.
A situation where you can’t move your hands.
I thought of mobilizing even my feet, but I stopped because if I did that, I would end up in a situation where my limbs would be restrained.
Instead of being captured, he raised his magic power and used a magic circle behind his back.
The magic that temporarily emits light was created and manifested on a scale that encompasses the entire space.
[Who is this guy?]
“Slime… ?”
The identity of the sphere was a slime commonly seen in the fantasy world.
It was only then that I understood the diversity of texture.
Slimes could make their own slime thick or muddy.
“Are you afraid of slime… ….”
I felt relieved as the secret was revealed, but at the same time I was embarrassed.
I lost money because I was nervous for no reason.
[…] … By the way, contractor.]
“Why?”
[You don’t think slimes living in alien dungeons are normal slimes, do you?]
“Ah.”
I looked at the slime that was holding my hand.
The guy who trembled and wet my hand coldly.
Even if it is a dangerous object, considering that slime is based on water, it cannot cause significant damage to me.
Because I have the protection of the blue dragon.
Fusion-!
A slime that suddenly ejects something out of its body.
At the same time, the walls that had been blocked in all directions began to melt all at once.
In addition, countless monsters waiting beyond the wall were screaming and dying.
My mouth was gaping as I watched the scene.
“Kulleong! Sneaky!”
A slime that transforms its body into a heart shape.
It looks like you’ve encountered a slime at the highest level.
