“Which dungeon is this?” Liam hurriedly grabbed Ning Xi by her shoulder and shook her.
“Ah… Ah… it’s the same Jing city dungeon.” The poor girl got scared and blurted out.
She was also excited about this new information, but she did not know enough to fathom the implications of such an unexpected discovery.
Liam was the only one who knew, and he was also the only one who needed this right now. This was probably what the fairy had meant when she had let slip earlier about something.
Liam grew more and more excited. Though he was doing something at the moment, it was not nearly enough to improve his current condition.
But now, that had changed. He could actually tackle the higher-level dungeons and go beyond 80, the level he was currently stagnated at.
After getting all the information from Ning Xi, Liam did not dare linger around.
This time he did not call anyone for company and immediately rushed over to the dungeon by himself, riding on top of Luna at top speed. Sensing Liam’s mood, the fox was also equally excited.
The two of them did not take long before they arrived in the same village they had visited before. This time the place was even more deserted when compared to earlier.
The reason for this was abundantly clear as a swarm of mosquitoes assaulted the duo as soon as Luna landed.
The mosquitoes were bigger in size, numerous and did not have the brains to know that they should not mess with beings far beyond their abilities. So they foolishly tried to stick their parts into the meaty fox.
Growl!
The fox immediately opened her mouth and spit out a burst of fire in anger.
“Just ignore them and go straight for that dungeon.” Liam pointed at the green-coloured portal. He did not have the patience at the moment to deal with these smaller mobs.
Kyuu! Luna shook her head and tossed out another burst of fire before she blurred her way into the dungeon.
<Ding. You have entered dungeon 114>
Liam swiped the notification away and blasted his way through the inside of the dungeon. It was only a basic dungeon with weak monsters meant to be fodder for the beginners. In this particular case, these were wolf-like chimaeras.
The entire dungeon was in the shape of a network of caverns, and Liam made a quick work of the howling monsters by summoning his soul army.
He then managed to arrive at the specific location in a couple of seconds. “This is where they mentioned, so the wall should be one of these two.” He looked at the narrow passageway in which he was standing.
He tried to sense if something was different. He closed his eyes and tried to observe the air around him, searching for clues about mana or anything else for that matter. However, he was only drawing a blank.
But how did the old granny sense something that he was not able to? He couldn’t understand.
He decided to think about that later and first took a deep breath before punching the wall in front of him. He then immediately turned around and punched the one behind him as well.
Pa! Pa!
In the blink of an eye, the whole thing shattered, both front and back, falling down as bits of rocks.
When the dust cloud settled, lo and behold, there was indeed a passageway staring at him, just like the granny had said.
Howl! Immediately, a pack of chimaera wolves jumped forward before Liam had time to process anything. He did not bother dealing with these low-level cretins as he side-stepped them, leaving them behind for his soul minions.
He entered the main passageway with a gulp. Could it really be true? His heart was pounding loudly as he took one step after another, observing the surroundings.
He was still in the same cavern-like network, but the steps were inclined and winding, almost as if he was climbing onto a different floor.
As he turned the corner, he was actually on a different floor, basically with a similar layout of the dungeon, except that the chimaera wolves here were Level 20 and above.
“Motherfucker. I can’t believe this.” Liam smiled in disbelief at the scene in front of him. The information he had received was indeed true. The dungeon was not just a low-level beginner dungeon. It had another level!
Then, could it mean…
Liam’s heart was still pounding as he picked up the pace and blasted through the second floor of the dungeon. While his soul minions attended to the mobs and the floor boss, he busily scanned the dungeon floor from top to bottom.
Howl! All the chimaeras were wildly incensed by this blatant disrespect, but they dropped down dead left and right before they could even get a chance to express this anger.
Meanwhile, Liam started from the dungeon entrance itself and repeatedly punched every inch of the walls that lined the pathway. Some of the walls collapsed, and some did not.
Those that collapsed also did not reveal anything spectacular, just another small cavern or loop. However, as he approached the main lair of the final boss, there was finally a change!
One of the walls crumbled to reveal a passageway that had inclined winding steps which lead further upstairs.
Liam clenched his fists in excitement as he felt his pulse quicken some more. He only took a step upstairs when another pack of chimaera wolves emerged.
And this time, they were Level 35 and above!
It was true! Everything was true! If he climbed higher and higher, he could actually reach Level 50 and stronger beasts?
Liam licked his lips. With a grin, he stepped forward confidently as he slammed the incoming beasts onto the sides of the wall and continued to walk forward as he reached the next floor of the dungeon.
