Dungeon Reset

“If you have any skills, you can use them immediately. ”

Jungdown looks at the enriched skill pane and is troubled by what to use it for.

3 new skills in total.

It was a trap setup, gate setup, and reset.

“Let's just pass the traps and start with the most important gate. ”

We don't need to use the trap right now, so we'll have to check this out later.

The same was true for reset skills.

There was nothing to bring back right now.

“Gate installed! ”

As I reach forward and shout loudly, the golden light flashes from my hands.

However,

[Installation Failed! Not enough Life Energy.]

“Oops, failure? ”

< Life energy is required to use the power of the Dragon. Now, the time has finally come for sacrifice. >

“I see. Meat, after all. ”

< meat. >

Jungdown opens his belongings and heaps smoked meat on the altar.

I didn't think it was a waste because there was still so much food left.

“Sacrifice the dragon of life. ”

Paaaaaah!

A spell from the Alpha (?), he swallowed all the smoked meat with a golden glow on the altar.

Gulp!

Sacrifices that vanished like wildfire.

“That's amazing. It's like magic. Can you use your skills now? ”

< Enough, about 3 skills have been used up. >

“Just?”

< This is great. If you add all the meat to the sacrifice.It's only half a pig. >

“Hmm. I see. ”

I'm still estimating the number of uses of life energy and skills that followed the alpha's remark.

< Just for the record, you don't have to come all the way to the altar every time to offer sacrifices. >

“Yes? Why? ”

< The owner of the temple is the same as the priesthood. You can offer sacrifices right from anywhere. >

“Oh, that's convenient. And how do you propose to do that? ”

< You can have it. >

“…… Huh? ”

Jungdown doubted his ear.

< Eat! >

“What do you want me to eat? ”

< Manager's body is like a walking temple. >

“ ……? ”

At first, I thought the Alpha was talking about something religious.

But I heard that the conclusion was strange.

< You can now eat unlimited food. >

“Huh? Infinite? ”

< Yes. In the future, all the food that goes into your stomach will be replaced by living energy and flowed into the ruins. >

The words made my face pale.

“Gosh, what is that? I'm scared. I'm not a fisherman... So I'm still hungry no matter how much I eat? ”

< No way. It's the same as usual until you're full. When your satiety reads 100 percent, everything you eat and drink from that point on will turn into life energy. >

“Oh, that's why it's in the status window! That's why you left your satiety shame behind. ”

< Yes, but this ability is actually a blessing to humans, right? From now on, you will be able to eat unlimited delicious food without worrying about being full. >

I heard that it was more of an appetite than an angler.

I'm done worrying about dieting.

I didn't have any good restaurants in the area, so I thought I'd just have to chew the scraping meat all day like a cow chewing grass.

“When do you chew up all those sacrifices? I don't want to blind my jaw. Let's just use the altar, if possible. ”

Tsk, tsk.

Unlike the horse, he was already chewing the meat from his mouth.

* * *

“Come on, let's do it for real! Gate installed!”

[Install the gate.]

Flash!

In front of him, a golden door was created in a coiling space.

Jungdown stood around the gate and asked Alpha.

“Well, is this the end? When we get in here, where do we get out? ”

< You're not going anywhere yet. Gates must have a total of two to travel back and forth between them. This is the starting point. >

“Aha. … Huh? Wait, this means that I can only go back and forth between places I've installed myself. ”

< Yes >

Jungdown looks baffled.

“Wait. What's the point of all these gates? How am I gonna get home? ”

< It's only level 1. Once your Gate Skill reaches Master Level, you'll be able to go anywhere you want. >

“Master? In what time? ”

< If you sacrifice regularly, it will be enough in about 20 years, right? >

“That sounds like 20 years! ”

As soon as I heard it, I sighed.

Nothing is ever easy in the world.

“By then, I'll have found all my colleagues, woken up all the dungeon stages, and gone home and had some kimchi stew. ”

How much dirt he clumped together until he reached master level.

Whether it's time or effort, it means that you need to invest at least that much in Gate Skills to become a master level.

“For now... I understand. Let's finish using the skill first. Gate installed!”

[Install the gate.]

Flash!

A second gate appears next to the first gate.

Then the two emitted light at the same time.

[Gate is connected.]

“Oh?”

< If you go in one side now, you'll come out the other side. >

“Huh. What do I do? I'm a little excited right now. I feel like I've never been on a roller coaster. Can we get some food and go? ”

< Now, calm down…. >

“Wow. Is this really my gate? The door to space!”

Jungdown continues to hover around the glittering gate with the face described above.

< You can just walk in. Depending on the person, you may get a little bit seasick. >

“Go, Gandhi! ”

Jungdown forcefully sets foot inside the gate.

Let's do it, poof! I showed up at the other gate with a feeling.

“Huh? Awesome. ”

Jungdown stares blankly at the first gate he entered.

“Wow. This is really something. ”

Jungdown has been in and out of two gates for a long time.

I was still surprised to see it.

Then I suddenly saw a silly sight.

Posheng, who was watching from the side, leapt into the gate along the jungle.

But failed.

“Kiss!”

Punching your nose against a translucent wall and tipping your feet over.

Then he touches his aching nose with his front foot and looks down with envious eyes.

“Phew.”

He looked so trivial and cute that I grabbed him with one hand and asked Alpha.

“This gate, is it only me who can get through it? ”

< Basically, yes. Anyone with your permission can use it. >

“Permission? Oh, I've been there, too, that. ”

It was immediately reassuring.

It reminds me of a time when I failed to pass through a gate on Stage -1.

“Well, can we do this? I give Pouch permission to use the gate! ”

“Kiss, kiss, kiss! ”

From the moment his permission fell, Pouch had the right to use the gate.

He was excited to be alone and watched as he walked in and out of two gates.

Then there was an idea that popped into his head.

“Then what about the golem? ”

You gaze down at the ostrich and the centaurus golems gathered in one place.

< You mean the Earth Golems? Of course, it's possible. Of course, it's a bit large, so it's going to cost a lot of magical power. >

Tsk, tsk, tsk.

“Really? Really? ”

The eyes of the downward one sparkle.

I finally realized how to use this Gate Skill.

“Centaurus 1, get in here. allow the use of the gate. ”

“Oh?”

A centaurus sets foot inside the gate at the command of the Jungdown.

Then the gate, which allowed one person to enter, suddenly grew and swallowed him up.

“Om Om? ”

Centaurus moves quickly beyond space to the other door.

Jungdown bursts into elasticity.

“Gosh, it really works, right? This is amazing! ”

< What is the meaning of this, so why are you making such a fuss? >

The Alpha's words are puzzled and she yells out in excitement.

“Don't you see? Now I can summon golems anywhere! ”

This was an epiphany!

In fact, it was quite a burden to carry around such large numbers of these monsters as usual.

While you may be confident in the field of battle, you usually focus more on your enemies.

But why don't we keep the golems here at all times?

“Usually I wander around alone, salting the gate when a dangerous moment comes! Open it and summon the golems! ”

< The so-called 'Summon Golem’. That's definitely a good idea. But there's a better way. If you think it's dangerous, you're the only one who can cross over here. >

“That's fine with me. ”

I empathized a lot.

Whatever it is, it's also about your safety.

Jungdown has decided to continue researching this Gate skill in the future.

The door to the room seemed like a really versatile skill.

* * *

Jungdown had been wondering about something for the past few months.

What lies beyond the Mountains of Death? ’

At the end of his long journey, he had to figure out the answer to this question.

“Damn it.”

Following the Alpha's guidance, the Jungdown came out of the ruins and became extremely devastated.

There was a minister in front of him who made his mouth open.

A sea of white clouds.

Clusters of mist and clouds spread endlessly in front of my eyes.

“A cliff.... ”

An incline in the front, falling almost perpendicularly behind.

This was the reality of the mountains of death.

“Shit. What the hell is all this terrain? ”

< This is Heaven Hye's fortress. >

After that, the Guardian said he needed to be guarded only in front of him because he was going to fall behind anyway.

As the owner, I'm sure you're confident, but as I was trying to get through here, I was insulted.

Even when the cloud layer was so thick, I couldn't see what was underneath the mountain even when I looked out of my eyes.

“Alpha, do you know what's down here? ”

I don't know, I'm not interested in anything other than the Temple. >

“Proud.”

< I'm not proud of it. It's been a long time since I left the temple, by the way. Isn't it a beautiful view? >

“Well, I'm even more pissed off. ”

Jungdown nods with a poop chewing face.

Yeah, well, I had to admit,

Take a big picture and use it as your computer desktop.

The dramatic beauty created by Mother Nature was here.

At this point, I thought it was almost violent, so I looked everywhere for robbery.

Jungdown, who was looking at the view for a moment, suddenly sighed and blinked meaningfully.

“Phew, would people be so embarrassed if they were in this awkward situation? But I'm different. This has happened before. ”

< I didn't ask. >

“Construct Observatory! ”

[Construct a Observatory.]

Execute him!

Jungdown set up a lookout tower in the backyard of the ruins.

It was already high enough, so I didn't have to build it up high enough.

“Please let the minimap pierce the clouds. ”

After completing the observation deck in an instant and opening the minimap, a concentric map unfolds around the ruins.

“Oh! Knights! ”

Luckily, the terrain covered by the clouds was revealed on the map.

The map reminds me of this.

“This?”
