Chapter 1752 Three Winged Angel Dungeon -Part 20

"I honestly thought that you were going to come back empty handed. Who is it this time around?" Old Flammet was once again informed of Jin and Yinn's arrival back to Mount Sunn's workshop.

"The Necromechanoid," Jin said and Old Flammet nodded slowly.

"Just him? No others?"

"He did summon a titan and a squid," Yinn replied and Old Flammet's memories flashed, the numerous deaths that occurred to his teammates and the loss of even more customised Mechanoids.

"What about the Eagle, Armadillo, and the Centipede?"

"We did not encounter any of those three. Erm, it's a peaceful resolution for Nercomechanoid." Jin eventually told what had happened and Old Flammet remembered the scene. Where the Necromechanoid opened his chest to show the emptiness within it. People thought it was a show of weakness and attacked it immediately, causing all those monstrous mechanoids that they had once fought in the previous floors to reemerge again.

But since they knew the weakness of those undead monster Mechanoids, they were able to win the fight but even more losses to behold. Old Flammet had to create new weapons and tricks for his guildmates before they managed to kill everything and later reached Nercomechanoid. And he was merely there in his armour sitting, waiting to be killed.

It was satisfaction for the winner but the battle was won with too many losses. Now when he heard Jin's story, he never knew that there was a way to win this battle so peacefully. It was like a slap to his face and his comrades who put in so much effort and blood to get the victory they wanted. And yet, Master Mecha Smith did not say a single word out when Jin finished his story.

All he could do was to sigh.

Sigh and the possibilities his guild mates could have taken if they were not so reckless.

"Can I see the rewards?" Old Flammet asked and he opened the chest only to reveal five pieces of an ancient power core placed neatly in it and a letter stating to the Mechamancer who would be receiving those power cores.

"Click might be a child when it comes to her attitude but she will understand the responsibilities of having these five cores in her. I will make sure that she reads the letter." Old Flammet said as he got up from inspecting the five cores.

"The last boss for Page's upgrade. I can only say that it's best you go alone. Do not bring any Mechanoids with you, even Lynn. Heh, maybe Nie might be a better help against the last boss compared to any of the Mechanoids you could bring."

"Something to do with Page's ability to control certain Mechanoids?"

"Yes. So, there might be a chance that you have to show your trump card."

"Don't worry. I have a better trump card to play if no Mechanoids were allowed." Jin said as he thanked Old Flammet before asking Porter to bring him to the last floor. After all, it was quite a distance he had to walk. n(.o-(V--E--l-)b)-I-.n

"Master, don't you want Jin to bring at least a few basic Mechanoids with him? That way it should lessen his burdens a little bit." Nie asked and Old Flammet shook his head. "Get me my hammer and rifle. There is an old score I have yet to settle. With Jin's help, there is a chance that I might get to soothe the years of guilt that had burdened me."

"Then what about those upgrades that you promised Jin?" Nie asked and the old Mechasmith laughed.

"Diaz's upgrade might be a little tough but I had already done the foundation work. You can continue on it after I leave. Next, you should work on Click's. The fixing of those power cores should be the same concept as how I created Lynn's mechanoid body. Follow that and you should find your answer. Otherwise, you can wait for the rest." Old Flammet said and hurried his apprentice to get his hammer and rifle.

Jin continued his journey down without a hitch until he reached the fourth floor where he saw that the Masked Announcer was waiting patiently for him to arrive. "Oh? I thought I would only see you when I arrived at the fifth and final floor."

"Hmm, yeah. But it looks like you are not the only challenger who would be going for the fifth floor. So, might as well wait for him to come. Once the both of you have arrived, I will teleport you guys to the fifth so you don't have to walk."

"Eh? Is Old Flammet really asking Nie to follow me?" Jin thought to himself and the Masked Announcer started to speak.

"Let me tell you a short story while we wait for the last challenger. Do you know that there was a guild that was extremely famous to not just the people of the Empire but to the rest of the other nations as well?"

"No, I don't."

"Then I guess, the Challenger did not tell you about his exact past. And the true reason why he had been exiled by the entirety of the Empire."

"Wait, the challenger is Gramps Flammet?" Jin asked and the Masked Announcer nodded and gave a thumbs up to Jin.

"He was part of a guild that had decided to challenge the Three Winged Angel Dungeon. In fact, his guild was so strong that they managed to reach the 95th floor where the final mini boss before they were able to reach the king. If they were able to defeat that last boss, the last few floors before the 100th floor would be a breeze to them."

"But they did not. The 95th Level Boss was something that they had not expected. They had incurred losses so badly from that particular boss that the guild had to permanently shut down. Because the only remaining survivors were him and his best friend."

"However, his best friend died before he could receive any medical attention. It is one of the simplest and most common stories out there, which is why I never bother telling him." Old Flammet said as he came into sight.

"But you did not tell him that Flammet had decided to return to the dungeon boss and asked for his help instead. That is what made things even more interesting, isn't it?" The Masked Announcer slowly removed his mask and revealed a face partially covered with void.

"That was the only way you can live, Gerrad."
