My Multiverse Trip 173 173. Dungeon

"now don't go showing it off there are a lot of bad types in this town who might rob you so stick to the populated areas."

I had a shadow follow her just in case. Anyone hurts my fluffy G.o.ddess can become a permanent part of my undead army.

"I'll try to be back before dark so behave yourself." I patted her head and walked out into the street.

My first destination was the information area around the entrance of the dungeon. It's always good to know what your up against and what to look out for. I had my backpack on so I don't look suspicious. Inventory magic is a very wanted skill and some of the higher ups might resort to darker means to get me to join them. Remember a rule of thumb is to be cautious of people they are usually more sinister than dungeon monsters.

I make my way over to a man selling beginner books on monsters and buy one for the first 20 floors. The go over some of the monsters I should be finding on the first few floors notable drops besides crystals. There aren't many in the first few floors. Mostly I'll be dealing with goblins, kobolds, wall climbing lizards, and wolves the first 7 or so floors. Then it moves up a notch to lizardmen with weapons, minotaurs, and h.e.l.lhounds around the 11th floor and on.

Key points to look out for are monster parties which randomly sp.a.w.n in tens of monsters. Dungeon ants which when killed release a pheromone to summon more ants often leading to a party wipe due to being surrounded and exhausted to death. And lastly criminals who would sometimes kill and rob rookies.

Rule of thumb never ever ever party with people you can't trust or don't know. If you want to set up a party get reliable information at the guild and check around for their reputation.

There's a boss on the 17th floor called a Goliath It has a large body that reaches seven meters and has gray skin. The Goliath is always reborn two weeks after it is killed.

All in all there's a ton of different monsters from poison moth to horned rabbits.

Sadly no slimes.

I memorize everything and make my way into the dungeon. following a small crowd of adventurers and we all split off different ways once we are inside. The dungeon is kind of set up like a maze with dark purplish walls that turn more cave like the lower you get in floors til the 20s or so. Every floor is bigger than the last so sometimes it takes a while to get out and people are forced to stay inside.

I wander around looking for enemies and the stairs to the next floor mostly this floor is usually emptied of monsters from the constant influx of adventurers.

After about 20 minutes I finally see one. A goblin. ugly little green creature wearing what appears to be a loincloth and holding a stick.

Without missing a beat I rush it, running full speed right before I reach it I pull back my leg and give it a nice hard kick punting it directly into the dungeon wall. It gives out a satisfying splat and pops into dust leaving behind a small crystal.

Monster cores. These my good sirs are great they can be used to improve my dungeon in the kingdom and fed to my monsters on the ranch to help promote growth and evolution also they can be sold for about 1 gold to the shop. An all around good item. I pop it into the kingdom for vampire me to handle.

Thrilling end to such a climactic battle.

I continue on. Finding a few more goblins I destroy in epic battle style. I've decided to invest in 25k points and get an auto looting feature for the kingdom and my vault. Picking up drops is annoying. I don't know why I didn't do this when I was sacking cities would have made my life easier. But this can also lead to a ma.s.sive problem. It's called the cluttered inventory. Where my inventory or gate become full of bulls.h.i.+t and I have to sort it out. Ruining my perfectly organized areas. no no no. 25k points more and we have auto organization for loot oh yeah baby.

I continue my way finding the stairs down and start running into more groups of goblins this time it's in 2s and 3s a random throwing knife to the eye a few punches to the head dodge a rock or stick and kill the last one and we move on. Goblins are slow. We continue our journey down groups move up to five goblins. Couple slashes with the ninjato and it's complete. 12 years of training with teacher have been good to me. I basically have triple the normal human stats it may not seem like much but it's peak human stats not normal human. Do you know what the greatest weight ever recorded lifted by a human was? it was 3 tons or 6000 pounds. I can basically lift 9 tons that's nothing to my vampire form who can lift like 100 tons but it's G.o.dliness to me. In this world that basically nothing to some of the higher leveled monsters and people. if I had to guess my strength I could probably fight against a low to medium level 2 person.

Well moving on. I finally make it down to the 5th floor and start seeing kobolds. They are human like but furry and with dog like heads and ears they are a lot more perceptive than goblins with keep hearing and smelling. as soon as I walk into the area one rushes me. I grab it by the throat as it snaps at my face for at closer look. It's pretty ugly. Not like a cute puppy at all. *snap* I crush it throat and keep going. I can directly tell that the strength of each monster increases by a bit if I were to cla.s.sify goblins as level 0 then kobolds would be like level 0.5. just a bit faster and stronger.

we start making it to groups of goblins with a kobold mixed in always kill the healer or the one who gives the most threat first. Since there is no healer we kill the kobold. always remember to wipe out the support first in any group we don't want enemies healed or people being buffed while we fight mobs that's annoying.

The floors go on the goblins become less and the kobolds become more. they mostly fight with biting so if you keep a bit away and just cut them down your good to go.

Goblins however are little s.h.i.+ts who like to throw rocks and sticks at your back when your fighting.
