Chapter 142

Chapter 142: As the legendary class should be!

[Five hours later after Team Homies entered the dungeon.]

“Die!” Alex beheaded the last orc whose muscular body was squeezed by the tight leather armor.

On the second floor, the orcs had better equipment. They had sharp weapons, more levels, and stats. They were more challenging opponents primarily due to their long-distance weapons.

Their numbers had never been a problem on the first floor. But just one weapon difference turned their numerical advantage into disaster.

Alex and his friends needed to work together more than ever. They just couldn’t blindly rush after monsters and show off their abilities.

Tomo Homie had more work too.

“It took us… close to four hours to clean this whole floor,” Tomo Homie whispered while panting, looking like someone who went through the super-man challenge.

He had been shouting for too much, which ended up with Tomo Homie getting [Sore Throat] debuff a few times.

He used his skills to mend that, but the numbers of orcs continued to push them. Worse, the party hadn’t been just fighting with the monsters.

They were fighting with their limits too.

Even Alex, who had better equipment and level, was out of breath. He dropped onto his bottom, sighing, “Four hours… And there are more ahead…”

“I will prepare a camp,” Josh said as he saw through everyone’s low stamina.

He had more of it than everyone else because of his class. He also looked far better because his job was mostly to keep Tomo Homie safe. They didn’t move around too much, unlike Alex and the rest.

Even Pedro didn’t want to burden their healer, so he used wind magic to move around the floor as if skating.

“It’s my first time eating like that,” Alex uttered before munching on the sausage.

It was the most common food on the dungeon floors as one could easily make them through a bonfire. The fire was an essential part of the dungeon conquest because of its good values.

It increased regeneration, calmed down players’ hearts, and gave them warmth after the cold killing.

And as Tomo Homie said before, it helped them reset their minds.

[You no longer feel hungry.]

[Hunger no longer affects your stamina regeneration.]

Josh smiled warmly, “As you see, the dungeon is no easy feat. We are also getting short on the potions, don’t we?”

Alex glanced at Tomo Homie, who nodded with scrunched expression, “We can’t help it. We would never advance here if we just relied on my healer skills!”

“Never?” Pedro side-glanced.

Tomo Homie sighed greatly, “Alright, maybe a few months.” He then changed the topic, “The orcs barely drop any potions. They mostly drop their waste equipment… We will sell it for some money to blacksmiths, but…”

“Our inventory is getting quite cramped, right?” Zhen chuckled.

The others nodded.

Tomo Homie would call their other friends to help him in their usual gaming. That was why he took his time to message them. Alex and others would go down to the first floor, pass the loot, and continue their climbing in the standard scenario.

They also would be able to buy more potions through their friends.

“No one has time… And the girls won’t even come to the orc dungeon,” Tomo Homie complained openly while tapping the keyboard’s system.

Alex comprehended how necessary friends and guilds were.

You could move your stuff around the dungeons and other leveling grounds far easier with many people working together for their profit. In guilds, some guild members would have some work while other guild members could focus on their leveling up.

Then, they would switch.

Alex and his friends hadn’t found guilds yet. They relied on their friends. Besides, there was more trust between them.

Alex thought, ‘We can’t leave the dungeon, or we will lose our progress. Those dungeon conquerors from early levels must have killed players to secure consumables for their grinding…

We have seen a few players, but no one wanted to fight… But at this point, we should focus on players too.’

Guilds and normal parties were fighting against the orcs on all floors. So far, Alex and homies hadn’t met any villain. And if they did, then the villain guild probably had been plotting something against them.

That was why it was essential to keep an eye around.

‘The problem with inventory’s space is still the most important… We can’t lose any money, can we?’ Alex chuckled as the new idea popped into his mind.

He took out a broken sword from his inventory. That weapon dropped from the orc, and its quality was poor. However, it would be a good item for new blacksmiths to learn from.

Alex took out one of his class tickets from his inventory. As the Master of the Deathwill Castle, Alex could create them without a problem. The difference was when he wanted to use those tickets on someone other than himself.

‘Will it work?’ Alex questioned while planting the ticket on the sword’s hilt.

In the next second, the sword disappeared. It didn’t return to his inventory but went straight to the Deathwill Castle’s grounds!

Alex remembered how many items had been lying pointlessly near the grand gates. He had even picked one epic bone sword from that pile of ‘wastes’.

For the Deathwill Sisters, those bone swords were trash since their items were Growth Type Items.

And now, Alex sent the sword that truly could be called a waste.

He smiled, “Gather all loot in one spot. I will send them to a secure place, then we will sell them together after the dungeon.”

“Is it because of your class?” Tomo Homie spoke carefully while asking the question.

To his inquiry, Alex nodded with a broad smile.

Tomo Homie laughed, “Nice! That’s how it should be, right?! Before logging out, let’s get some kill count on the third floor!”

Everyone agreed.

They had school tomorrow, and they also had been fighting for nearly five hours straight. They all wanted a better rest in their real lives.

Without lagging behind, Alex stamped the ticket on the mound of loot. The items disappeared without any problem, leaving everyone content.

Alex and the homies went to the third floor, “We should aim for players soon, right? They should carry enough consumables.”

The others nodded, “I don’t want to fight players as we can’t tell what they are hiding, but this is necessary. We should look for struggling people and hit them while they fight monsters.”

Alex looked at Pedro in a different light, “How cruel.”

“If we are cruel players, then what about villains?” Pedro snickered.
