Chapter 462: City Of Shadows
After we left the village of the Elves we decided to take the shortest route to the port city in the northern region of the Kingdom of Grimo, for that we would have to go through one more city.
The Elves gave us a map of the Realm and pointed out the path we should take, so I tell Nix and Orion to stay in the carriage for us to drive out of the Illusory Forest along the path marked on the map.
Meanwhile, everyone else will enter the dungeon I opened inside the carriage, this will be the first time I enter the dungeon in months.
----------
As soon as I entered the Dungeon I go straight to the 23rd floor which is the floor where the mansion and the city are now.
Thanks to the Annual Monster Wave we were able to collect a lot of DP, with that we were able to expand the size of the mansion's floor more and we were able to create more floors.
We even had more DP to create even more floors, but I decided to invest in modifying floors and implementing automatic monster spawn points.
With that this dungeon finally became really functional, there are different monsters on each floor, in addition, all monsters in this dungeon are soulless variants, mid-bosses are unique soulless monsters and floor bosses are unique monsters with souls.
I haven't decided on a Dungeon boss, for now, I'm still thinking about it, for the monsters I put souls on, they are linked to the Dungeon, so even if they are defeated they will respawn sooner or later, moreover, they were all criminals.
But it would be hypocritical of me if I treated them like criminals when they are not the same people as when they were alive, just like Hela, they remember their lives when they were alive before we killed them, but for them, it's like seeing the someone else's memories.
That's why I created three bosses for each floor, they will take turns staying in the boss room one day and then two in the city as a day off, but they are only allowed to come from their respective floors to the city floor, they are not able to leave the Dungeon.
They are still trapped in the Dungeon until the moment I want to free their souls, but they will also serve to protect the Dungeon, unfortunately, the strongest monster in the Dungeon, for now, is only Grade C.
But that will have to be enough for now, as I expand the Dungeon things will improve.
In addition, it will act that there are monsters in the Dungeon we will never have to worry about running out of food, I also learned that the 22nd floor already has a farm built and the planting of the dozens of types of seeds that Freya bought a long time ago had already started behind.
In the village of the Elves, they were kind enough to post quests for the Adventurers Guild about the monsters I wanted for the Dungeon Mountain Buffalo and Cockatrice.
Thanks to that we managed to get a few hundred of these monsters to take the right farms from the Dungeon as I wanted, of course, the money as a reward for these missions came out of my pocket, it wouldn't allow the Elves to pay for it.
Another thing I got from the Elves was a lot of books on magic, martial arts, and spiritual runes.
With that, our library should now be giant.
After so long looking forward to seeing this city, I couldn't wait any longer, as soon as we arrived on the 23rd floor I spread my wings and go in the direction where the camp was, I learned that the city was built there, the camp no longer exists.
I was surprised how long it took to get to the place, even flying it took almost an hour, it seems Nix expanded twice that floor, must have enjoyed a small fortune in DP as each floor expansion costs more than the previous one.
When I was close enough to see the city, I marveled at its beauty.
It was a colorful city, even from the sky I could differentiate the different neighborhoods by their unique architecture, the neighborhood that was made using Elves architecture looked more like part of the forest was entering the city, and the streets looked like trails seen from above.
The rest of the city was amazing, it had some architecture similar to what I know with buildings of Roman architecture, many of the buildings looked like European buildings with a beautiful appearance, there was also a low one that has a strange architecture where it has round doors on the upper parts of the buildings.
One thing I noticed was that all the buildings were very big and with big doors, it seems that Leonardo was serious when he said that he wanted his buildings to be adapted to various races regardless of the size or shape of their bodies.
The places that had stairs always had ramps next to the stairs, probably to be more comfortable for races like the Lamias to walk through.
As soon as I got out in the middle of the city I was amazed by everything around me and I started to explore everything.
There were a few buildings that caught my eye, the big building with Roman architecture I saw before was something similar to an Adventurer's Guild where people placed requests for things they needed from household chores to hunting dungeon monsters, there were even requests for the lines of Arachnees.
It also had a beautiful five-story round building with an architecture that blends in with the forest neighborhood next door it had plants that grew around it giving a touch of color to its white surface.
The town square was magnificent with a garden with various types of flowers and beautiful trees, in addition, in the middle of the square, there was a beautiful fountain and not far away from an open area where I think there should be something.
Leonardo had already told me that he still hasn't finished everything for lack of some materials.
It also had a large building that seemed to be made with white marble and a type of red crystal marble, from the symbols on the building I imagine it was the temple Vanessa wanted so badly.
When I entered the temple I saw that there was no statue, but there were separate places with plaques for some gods such as the Goddess of Blood, Goddess of Fairies, God of Spirits, God of Beasts, Demon God of Vengeance, God of Magic, Goddess of Wisdom and Dragon God.
It seems that no statues have been prepared yet, it seems that even after months of work there are still many things to do, but I am surprised by the sheer number of things they have done so far.
The movement of the city was incredible with so many races walking to and fro, everything was incredible, I feel like a child at Disney.
