Chapter 279 The Dungeon Raid Begins

~VWUUSH!~

A swirling disturbance in space appeared within the darkened halls of the Royal Dungeon's First Floor.

From within the spatial distortion, ten beings emerged. They donned armor, had special wears, and possessed various weapons located in specific parts of their bodies.

These were the Raid Team, consisting of the nine Otherworlders and Sir Ralyks—leader of the team.

As soon as they came out of the portal, it closed, forcing darkness to take over the expanse surrounding them.

Thankfully, this was only temporary, as several balls of light floated in the air—courtesy of Ralyks.

As a result, everyone could clearly see the world that they had entered.

"Gather around, everyone." Ralyks' voice interrupted the serene silence that had pervaded everything.

The nine looked at him and did as he instructed. They formed a cluster opposite the Dark Adventurer, eyes alit with resolve.

"Let us begin the briefing."

******

Adonis. Alicia. Belle. Billy. Trisha. Justin. Clark. Eric. Rey.

Each of these participants were outfitted very differently, with weapons and attires that were unique to them and their abilities.

Broadly speaking, those who had warrior-like builds—like Billy, Clark, and even Adonis had armor for gear.

Billy's armor was the most elaborate, focusing solely on strength and power. He had dual swords behind him, as well as two daggers on his hip.

His helmet had a visor that allowed him to see, but aside from the few other openings in his armor, he was covered from head to toe in black and blue armor.

Clark, a natural Tank, had the bulkiest armor.

Based on his criteria, there was a red cape attached behind his armor that made him seem like some kind of legendary hero.

He didn't really have any wieldable weapon, though he had spiked knuckles, and he could also bring our claws from his wrists if he desired.

His armor was also colored blue and red for some reason.

As for Adonis, he had light armor on. His requirements ensured the items he wielded were more Enchanted than they were heavy.

This caused his Stats to jump as a result of their boosting capabilities.

His armor was golden, with small hints of black—a perfect fit for someone like him.

He also had goggles for increased perception and boots for swift movements, while also equipping an armored gauntlet one one hand—which doubled as a shield and a counter-type Item.

The final Equipped Item he had was a necklace that absorbed energy and boosted his Stats. It also released bursts of energy after a set period of time. It was going to be helpful for long-

range attacks, so that was included.

Rey's equipment ensured he had both offensive and defensive capabilities, precisely matching the nature of his sole Skill.

With Enchanted Items, even weaklings could become strong. As a result, Rey's Items—despite being only five—boosted his abilities to an unreal degree.

Right now, he wasn't the nobody that he used to be. Everyone could tell too.

In his own way, he too was strong.

Then, standing before all of them in his usual raven-black attire was Ralyks.

"I already sealed off the First Floor, so no Monsters exist here." He began the briefing.

"From the Second Floor and below, there will be several kinds of Monsters. Their strength will be unpredictable, and their abilities would have evolved."

Everyone's expression remained stern. They were already prepared for this much.

"I will be with you, so there's no reason to fear. However, I will not deliver the Monsters to your hands. You'll have to do that yourselves." Ralyks paused and looked at everyone.

Then...

"Is that understood?"

"YES!"

... He nodded in approval.

"Let us begin the Raid."
