Chapter 339 He Who Reached 30th Floor

Chapter 339  He Who Reached 30th Floor

For adventurers, dungeons were treasure troves—mother lodes of valuable things. Dungeons were places where any registered individual could procure resources without the risk of dying due to the mysterious power of the dungeon. Adventurers ventured inside the dungeon in order to hunt demanded monsters for their precious parts in exchange for gold. Even though dungeons were abundant with unlimited monsters, the rare monsters were rarely encountered in Guardian Rooms, so there were types of monsters that could be seen outside, on the surface. Not only were dungeons veins of resources, but dungeons could be utilized as training grounds for anyone who wanted to become stronger. Dungeon crawlers could let themselves run wild and commit a killing spree as the dungeons could produce countless waves of monsters, unlimited source of EXP. Dungeons were also placed to test the limits and know the capabilities of an individual. The lower the floor they dove, the stronger they were, which gained higher regard from the guild and society. On the northern continent, the Imperial Dungeon was the most well-known dungeon. Comprised of seventy floors, its walls on the surface had been home to millions of inhabitants. Being the biggest dungeon with the biggest city, the Imperial Capital had become the de facto center of the continent. In the annals of history, the Imperial Dungeon was described as the largest and most difficult dungeon on the continent. However, after almost a millennium of reign, the Imperial Dungeon had been finally bested by a newly captured Raevender Dungeon. Upon the announcement of its discovery, flocks of adventurers and alike traveled through the infamous Great Forest of Darkness for a week or so just to quench their thirst and curiosities for something new. Merchants were included in the movement as they thought bigger dungeons brought more opportunities.

From the size of the walls alone, many could tell that the Raevender Dungeon was surely larger than the Imperial Dungeon. Therefore, every adventurer was thrilled to venture into new levels of challenges and reach the bottom floor, although none of them even reached the 60th Floor of the Imperial Dungeon. However, due to the massiveness of the dungeon, the adventurers had a hard time just solving the mazes from the 11th Floor through the 19th. The 1st to 9th floors, the Labyrinth Floors, were just a straight path, and those floors were the easiest in every single dungeon. Veteran adventurer parties with teammates who were good with cartography managed to solve the one Maze Floor for a day at most. The monsters spawning down to the 20th Floor were weak to the adventurers, so the only problem was the complex maze. In spite of seasoned parties having a hard time on the mazes, there was one particular adventurer who completed the Maze Floors in a single day. He was rumored to be only at F-rank, yet he was able to do such a feat so easily that it seemed suspicious. Adventurers attempted to confront the man and forced him to reveal his tricks, but they just ended up with a broken nose at the end of the day. Out of all the attempts, one of the few details he shared was that he wanted to dive into the dungeon as deep and fast as he could. Adventurers had mixed reactions to the sudden and flashy appearance of the mysterious man. Whether they were amazed by his skills or even envied him, pissed off by his subtle arrogance, or more,. Through his feats, he had gained a name in the city of Louisiana. The mysteries shrouded around him aroused the curiosity and interest of the people around him, adventurers or not. His name spread so widely that he even caught the eye of the royal family. ???

Clink! Clink! Clink!

On the 30th floor of the Raevender Dungeon, the interior of the torch-lit Domain Guardian Room was filled with the sparks of two swords clashing. Only the screeching sounds of colliding metals rang in the room. There were two figures fighting inside the enclosed room. One was a human and the other was not a living being, it was more like a living dead, an undead in full plate armor, more specifically, a Level 300 B-ranked Undead Knight. Undead Knight was the evolution of Ghouls, which evolved from Zombies, and physically inclined Skeletons, in contrast. In contact with magic casters Liches, Undead Knights had greater physical attributes and were proficient with close combat weapons. The man opposing the undead, on the other hand, was the man in the rumors. In just three days of his conquest of the dungeon, he had already passed the dead lands of the Graveyard Floors and hit the 30th Floor. Besides Raphael and Louise Raevender, he was the first adventurer to challenge the 30th Floor Domain Guardian. Clinkn Whoosh. After clashing swords, the Undead Knight drew back its longsword and gripped it with both hands before positioning it at its back. The undead's swords glowed, and the undead knight silently executed a Level 2 Horizonal Slash, intending to cut his throat. Clink! But the man had already predicted its movements, and he immediately raised his sword vertically, easily blocking the attack. The Undead Knight was pretty strong, and that block even pushed the man by a centimeter. The undead drew back its sword again and then lunged it forward as if to stab its opponent. The man quickly reacted and avoided the tip of the sword by stepping aside. He then stepped back more to distance himself from the undead. At that time, the man decided to take the offensive. After channeling mana through his body, lightning streaks started to slither upon his mithrill sword. He was apparently a magic swordsman. Everyone knew that physical attacks barely worked on undeads. In addition, the undead armor was protecting its magic core. Knowing that, he decided to finish his opponent in one blow. "Perish, undead. Sword Wave." When he said the technique in his rough voice, the man swung his sword horizontally, and a wave imbued with yellow lightning streaks was unleashed from it. The wave was fastly flying toward the Undead Knight. The moment the undead saw the dazzling lights flashing through his entire vision, the lightning wave hit its target, and the Undead Knight kneeled in pain. 

"!!!" Due to its lack of flesh, the undead could not voice its agony. A few seconds later, the lightning stopped writing its body, and the Undead Knight dropped, finally dead, on the cold stone floor.
