Chapter 60 Part 1) Lucky Chance Part 1 (Patreon)

“This is it?” Desaray landed in front of a dungeon opening. It was in an old office building. The swirling vortex of mana spun in place in the middle of the room, dimly lighting it just enough to see the entire room.

“Yes it is the only one in the area that I scouted that was around level 500.” Lilith replied. Desaray had sent her out to scout the entire area for dungeons. They had flown all the way to what used to be South America to the very tip where there were no gods around. “The monsters seem to be of the reptilian kind though.”

“Like dragons?” Desaray frowned. She did not wish to kill dragons! That would be like killing herself!

“No, I think its more along the lines of this world’s history. I think you called them dinosaurs.” Lilith explained as best as she could. She was not sure since she had never paid attention to this world during that time, but she knew there were once large creatures that roamed this world.

“Then let’s get to it then.” Desaray was the first to step through the dungeon portal. When she came through to the other side, she was met with a heavy, dense jungle that was hot and humid. Very hot and very humid. Luckily, she was her own air conditioner, or she would already be sweating. In fact, their whole team was lucky to have her around due to her aura.

But the heat and humidity were not the things that stood out the most. It was the large planets and insects flying there the air. Mosquitoes the size of one’s hand were flying all over. Trees with trunks as big as a city built in New York rose high into the sky, making one crane their neck to look up at it. The underbrush alone was taller than Desaray, making her feel like she had shrunk.

While shocking due to the sheer size of everything, the beauty of it also could not be hidden. There were many colorful plants and some of the bugs that flew around while big were just as colorful.

It seemed more like a scene from a movie made for kids than real life. It was a lot to take in and also a little scary at the same time. If they did not come here knowing such a place was a dungeon with monsters, they would be fighting, they would be taking extra precautions instead of just standing out in the open.

“Alright, as stated before we are here to power level. We only need to care about experience points and nothing else. So even if you can not fight what we run into, it is fine. Just stay back and yell if you need help. Does everyone understand?” Desaray looked at the others. When she saw the firm nods of her friends and family, she smiled and formed a few ice swords in her hands before cutting away the brush in front of her.

“Lilith, how deep did you go before you ran into your first monster?” Desaray asked as she continued cutting a path.

“I think this dungeon changed or dropped us off in a different area due to the levels of our party. This area is different from before. If you look at the levels of the bugs they are all level 180.” Lilith grabbed a mosquito and held it in her hand. It struggled trying to get away, even trying to sting her, but she held it firm, not caring about whether or not it could even penetrate her skin.

“I see. Alright. To get some of our lower levels some quick experience, begin taking out the insects.” Desaray followed her own orders as well and began taking out the insects. They were not attacking on sight, but as soon as you attacked them, they would turn and attack you. Real quickly, the experience points came rolling in for Juna and the other lower-level people in the team.

The group pushed forward, clearing insect after insect. It was not until they came across a massive nest of wasps that were as big as a person did they stopped attacking and began making plans. “Level 300 wasps soldiers.”

Desaray used her appraisal skill on the wasps that were flying around. But she also knew these were only sentry try mobs. “How should we handle them? If we attack one there will be thousands of them flying at us. That nest is as tall as a sky scrapper.”

Ricky was very worried about them getting swarmed. He did not wish to see his daughter getting skewered to death by wasps.

“The should not be an issue. Wasps are not good with cold. They will normally go dormant and huddle together during cold seasons. Only the wasps that are on the outer rim of the huddle will die from the cold. But that is only if the cold does not reach a certain point. If its too cold even if they huddled together they would still be frozen to death.” Desaray explained, her eyes lighting up as she continued: “In fact this is a chance for us to grab large amount of experience for everyone.”
