I would love to see the face of these sect idiots when they see that we own their strongest and most valuable dungeon.
Actually, this means a whole lot of new possibilities, more than we can properly imagine.
We have taken over the major resource point for food, treasures, and more. And we can manage and make it even better through System Points. Upgrading it to Rank 4, 5, and so on…
Of course, it takes its time. We need to collect mana, refine it into divine energy in the dungeon, and make it into dungeon points.
We slaughtered most of the monsters here and the dungeon naturally absorbed their residual mana when they died, it seems to have gained a few dozen of dungeon points, but it is definitely not enough for anything much.
It seems that the best way to gain dungeon points is by upgrading the quality of the dungeon and make more monsters emerge, the more monsters there are, the more mana cores they have and the more mana they produce, which gets absorbed into the dungeon.
There are special facilities that can help in the absorption of mana to make it faster or even multiply their efficiency, such as an item named [Mana Converter] that converts into mana any residual energy, even the kinetic energy made when we move, adding a bit more of dungeon points that can be made a day.
The facilities can be upgraded using more dungeon points too, the Mana Converter costs 500 Dungeon Points and can be upgraded by 1000, it multiplies x2 the cost with each upgrade, the max level seems to be 10 per facility.
Very interesting, like a management game.
Well, there's another way too, a dungeon artifact named [Corpse Converter]. It converts the corpse of monsters into mana the moment they die, meaning that they turn into black smoke and dissipate when you kill them, leaving the mana core behind and dropped items.
This one exchanges the food you can get from them for more dungeon points, if we were to let the corpses be absorbed, the dungeon would have gained way more dungeon points… Maybe I could do this when we are done farming here? Just to destabilize the economy of the whole town.
Well, that would be way too evil so maybe not? Although most of the food they get is from farming, cattle, and the rank 1 dungeon that can be easily farmed.
Monsters are spawning slowly now that we cleared the dungeon, in approximately 12 hours they will get back to a good amount to clean once more… the Corpse Converter costs 2000 Dungeon Points though, so there's no way I am getting it anytime soon.
Oof, and there's a lot more of things we could had but we cannot… what a pain.
There are traps too, many, guillotine traps, arrow traps, boiling oil traps, sinkhole traps, spider web traps, and the most dangerous and interesting, teleportation traps.
Teleportation traps are a hidden magic circle that after being stepped on, teleports those into a different place, usually a closed room filled with monsters ready to slaughter them.
We could also use it to get inside the dungeon from Fuyu, it would be pretty insane. As a Dungeon Master, you can actually pick where you want your teleportation trap to get you to… I can just set one in Fuyu and it would be done…
We could enter the dungeon without having to pay ridiculous amounts to these assholes!
But we cannot yet…
Why not? Well, not enough dungeon points.
A single teleportation trap of two sides costs 5000 Dungeon Points. I see it is very costly due to its utility.
And that's without even mentioning that to Rank Up the Dungeon to Rank 4, we would need 7000 Dungeon Points.
And at the pace that it earns it… it will take a billion years.
Well, as long as I am managing the dungeon inside of it, I can actually manually pick up corpses around and convert them. Maybe I could lure people inside and kill them with the monsters, and then I absorb their corpses and mana cores… and there it is more dungeon points.
I can also just use the corpses of the monsters I hunt, but it needs to be done manually, unlike the corpse converter that does it automatically and with even more efficacy.
I could also offer the dropped items and convert them back into mana, dungeon points would be earned this way… I began to wonder if I could use my own flesh and convert it into mana, I mean, I am immortal so how about I use my flesh to gain endless dungeon points and become the strongest dungeon master in history?
Yeah, I don't think it will be THAT easy, but it was worth the try, I cut off my tail and offered it to the dungeon. It absorbed it and it gained… no mana.
What?!
Why!
<Please, stop mutilating yourself in front of your wife. Your body parts don't give mana because they're made up of Unique Skill powers, they defy the laws of this world and cannot be processed, your body parts are similar to materialized gas, they exist but possess no essence within them. However, they could still be consumed. Although I assume you don't want to give your flesh to be eaten by others…>
Yeah, no thanks, I am fine with just my blood to make potions… or my scales and crystals.
Though I feel like by not abusing this, I am wasting my immortal body.
Maybe I should really… u-use my own flesh and give my people… dragon steaks?
Ugh… the sole idea still makes me feel weird, seeing them eat me… I don't wanna…
Imagining Benladann enjoying a steak made of my tail already terrifies me.
"Why did you cut off your tail? Did you want to let us eat it? Oh! I never thought about it, maybe we could try out your flesh as steaks... Fufu…"
"GAH…! NO!"
"Hahaha! It was a joke! I would never do such a thing…" said Benladann teasingly.
"Ugh… Please don't joke like that, I almost had a heart attack."
