Ray was pretty surprised when he saw the first one to appear was the information of the cold woman. From their previous interaction, Ray had got to know that the cold woman's name was eve, but that was all. The cold woman didn't even bother to explain about her level and power, and she only told Ray and the others to follow her quietly in the Dungeon and not to make any strange move.

At first, Ray thought that it was pretty strange, but seeing the B-Rank danger sense, Ray now knew that it made sense. Her B-Rank Danger sense could not be compared to Ray's E-Rank, and that skill would be their best insurance to stay alive during the Dungeon Exploration.

Ray then closed the tab about Eve's information and proceeded to move to the next one. Without any surprise, the next following information was about Edward, Old man Grey and the man and woman pair. Ray skipped the information of Old man Grey since he had checked it before, and he continued to observe the other one.

Looking at that information, a piece of certain information really surprised Ray. He never thought that Edward would also possess a natal weapon and a demon-type bloodline, to be exact.

Bloodline in this world could be separated into two: Demon type and hero type. Demon type refers to mythological creatures like vampires and werewolves and mainly spread in Asia and Africa. While hero type was like King Arthur from Britain or Einstein, and they were more popular in Europe and America.

Still, not every bloodline was super strong. Bloodlines were also ranked from top-tier to the bottom tier, and Edward's Kuyang bloodline was a top-tier ranked demon bloodline in Indonesia. 

For this, ray was surprised and glad. At first, he thought that Edward got the name Kuyang just because of his bloody battle style, never thinking that Edward would truly pose the bloodline of a Kuyang.

Even so, seeing his childhood friend had an ace in his hole card, Ray sighed a relief. This Dungeon exploration would be extremely dangerous, and for his childhood friend to get stronger, Ray would only be happy for him.

Next, he looked at the information of the male and female from this evening. He observed it for a while before closing it. Even though they were pretty strong, the two were still far from Edward and Eve. Ray and they had no big conflict in the evening, and there's no need to put so much concern in them.

Ray then continued to browse through each piece of information obtained by the appraisal skill, and only after making sure that he had checked it all that Ray eventually went to sleep.

. . . . . .

The following day, Ray and the others now were ready to enter the Lawang Sewu Dungeon. All of them were now dressed in their format combat attire and their face now had a hint of nervousness in it.

Lawang Sewu's name has too much notorious in Indonesia, and it was only strange if they were not to be nervous.

Still, they were paid for this, and now they must fulfill their contract.

One by one, awakeners lined up in front of the Lawang Sewu's entrance, and after ensuring that everyone was there, the government agent started to lead them to the secret underground base, where the special dungeon entrance was located.

' It's so creepy...'

Ray, who was walking along with the other awakeners, felt a really bad premonition about this Special Dungeon. He curiously took a look in Eve's direction, only to notice that she was also looking at him with a small smirk on her mouth.

' Damn, I was discovered once again.' Ray quickly turned his head away, trying to not get Eve suspicious, and proceeded to follow the crowd.

If the upper area of Lawang Sewu was already creepy, the underground base was on a whole new level.

The whole underground base was damp, and only a few torches were lighting it. There were many jails on each side of the underground base, and even after only entering for a while, ray could already see that it was previously used as a torture chamber.

There were many blood marks on the wall that had dried, and with how long this place was abandoned, the situation was only getting creepier with each second passed.

Among the awakeners, Ray could already see some girls holding each other while shivering. It seems that being an awakener didn't mean that they would be immune to something like this.

A few minutes later, everyone arrived in front of a big Dungeon entrance. Contrary to other dungeon entrances who only looked like a big gate, this Special dungeon entrance looked like a gate descended from hell.

Two big skulls decorated the gate, and black glints came out from it.

Ray tried to use his appraisal to check the information of the Dungeon gate, and to his surprise, it was the first time his appraisal skills didn't work.

' System, what's happening here? Why does my appraisal skill doesn't work?'

[ DING!!! The host DM Level is too low to know the answer. Please be patient and keep increasing your DM Level to know the answer.]

The system's voice was very cold, not like his usual system, which somehow made Ray guess that this was not his DM System.

Still, contemplating these things would not help much. His current priority was to safely conquer this Dungeon, and Ray's best course of option was to save as much energy as he could.

After talking with the government official for a moment, it was eventually decided that when the awakeners would go inside and solve the Dungeon, government officials would stay outside and keep watch of the surrounding situation, ready if there was some urgent condition.

Edward nodded at the government official, and after looking at Ray one more time and giving a thumbs up to him, Edward led the awakeners to enter the Dungeon.

Some of you might be wondering why the awakeners would bother to separate the group of 20 awakeners into 4 teams and think that it was a bad decision. However, that was the best decision considering the nature of Lawang Sewu.

Just like its name, there would be a thousand doors inside, and it would take too much time if a big group of awakened must explore it one by one to find the boss room. Therefore, they have decided to divide it into four groups, making the responsibility of each group a lot lower. Nonetheless, they forget that even though the responsibility were a bit lower, the danger inside rose to a new tier with this decision, and they would not be able to quickly cope with a sudden disaster.

Following Edward, the other group of awakened also entered the special Dungeon. They were equipped with a special item that would enable them to communicate inside the Dungeon, and this would make the dungeon exploration a lot less burdening to them.

Time passed, and it was finally Eve and Ray's group. Eve looked at Ray with a cold look one more time, and they proceeded to enter the special Dungeon, followed by Ray and the other.

*Swoosh*

. . . . . .

As usual, the feeling of being absorbed into the Dungeon was really nauseating. Ray shook his head for a while and quickly recovered, looking at the others, who also seemed to be okay.

They were all professional, and it was not strange that they would be able to quickly cope with the dizziness from entering the Dungeon.

When Ray opened his eyes, he and the four girls were now standing in a dark underground place. The condition here was not a lot different from the outside. However, Ray could feel that his danger sense was already on full alert right now.

No matter what, what they will face from going forward must not be normal to make his danger sense be like this.

Ray was still contemplating about what kind of existence he could probably face here. However, suddenly one of the girls screams and attracts the attention of the others.

" What, what's happening? Why are you being this pale? You are not scared because this place looks creepy right?"

One of the girls tried to joke to alleviate the tension for a while, but when she noticed that her other friend had also become very pale, she immediately noticed something wrong.

"T-The communication device is not working!??"

Hearing this, all the girl's faces turned pale one after another. It was a common understanding that no one could escape from the Dungeon when a dungeon hadn't been cleared yet.

However, when the communication devices stopped working, it was a whole another story.

This means that they were now left alone inside this who knows big Dungeon, and they could not get out until one of the groups cleared the Dungeon.
