# 189
189. Advent Dungeon (1)
After returning from the event site, we were given a few days of rest.
Amkena must have needed time, too, as key ingredients were obtained from the event.
Amkena was preparing to expand the waiting room and build a new airship. A hangar facility was built next to the dimensional rift, and production workers led by mechanics were building the skeleton of the airship.
I had other things to do.
It’s called a break, but there was something I couldn’t put off any longer.
engrave.
It was the third ability of a hero that can be awakened from 4 stars and was obtained in Advent Dungeon.
[...]
The Item Synthesizer in the Magic Hall.
Katio was reciting an incantation with his eyes closed.
The magic circle shone dazzlingly as if responding whenever magic power rose from Katio’s body.
[right! you! light! Knock! under! ah! Ahn!]
Issel is doing a tap dance next to her in a cheerleader outfit.
‘...I’m going to die of noise.’
I moved my hand as I clicked my tongue.
[Start item synthesis!]
[Optional Material – Intermediate Advent Stone Dragon’s Blood Sharp Black Dragon Scales Cheondosu Traces of the Queen of the Forest Belle Mushroom Dragon’s Eye] [
Complete Item – Unknown]
[Success Probability – Unknown ]
[Synthesis Method – Manual]
I put the prepared ingredients into the magic pot.
Katio waved his hand, and a purple flash came from the jar.
This was also one of the reasons why magicians were favored. Magicians are usually excellent enchanters. When placed in a Synthesizer, they receive significant bonuses to attribute and combination.
[Choose a puzzle difficulty level. The higher the reward, the higher the reward!]
When I clicked Start Synthesis, the difficulty selection window popped up.
No need to think. I chose the lowest level of Super Hell difficulty.
[Kyaaa! As expected!]
“Be quiet. You have to concentrate.”
[Ah, okay.]
There won’t be a big difference if you do it roughly, but there’s one thing at a time.
I started solving puzzles that floated on the screen.
[ ! Super Success! ]
[‘Han (★★★★)’ produced ‘Intermediate Advent Stone (Black Dragon Soul)’!] A
finished item popped out of the jar.
I picked up a stone that was shining black. Dragon scales sprouted from the surface of the Advent Stone.
It wasn’t a very good visual, but it means that it was a success.
‘It came out right.’
The combination difficulty was high, so it would have been breathtaking without Katio.
I did a good job of forcing him to come. I said to Katio, who was sweating profusely after putting the Advent Stone in my chest.
“Good work. It was helpful.”
“Whew... I thought you were going to die. By the way, what are you? What you just made...”
“You’ll find out later.”
I put my hand on Katio’s shoulder and left the magic hall.
The current time is 1:45 in the morning. Amkena was disconnected and everyone was asleep except for a few heroes.
I deliberately chose this time.
It must be a pretty difficult scene to show.
I passed the darkened plaza and headed to the second floor of the waiting room.
To the place where the gap of time and space is located.
“Aren’t you worried about the future?”
[Geez. I’ve definitely done log manipulation. You’ll never doubt it!]
Issel followed me.
I went down the stairs, touching the Advent Stone in my arms.
‘It’s a little difficult if the master knows.’
This will be the most suspicious case I’ve ever had.
I’ve put in a few safeguards in advance, but it’s hard to avoid suspicion. I have no choice but to hope that Amkena will go over it. Because good is good
[Since Loki is the sub-master, it’s easier to hand over authority. After a while, you might be able to do it without me.]
“That would be nice.”
It would be too cumbersome to ask Isel one by one.
We arrived at the plaza on the second floor. The door to the space-time gap was already wide open.
I took out the Advent Stone from my bosom.
To obtain an imprint, you have to go through a fairly complicated process. First of all, there had to be an Advent Stone, which was not easy to obtain, and the Advent Dungeon that was opened through the Advent Stone had to be cleared. Of course, if he died during the attack, it would be the end.
I moved the control window of the master that Isel had taken over.
[Master Advent Dungeon is open!]
[Tips/ Advent Dungeon is a special stage that can be opened with special events or Advent Stones. You can imprint the hero.]
That’s it.
I walked through the gap of time and space.
Isel waved his hand from behind and saw him off.
[Loki can’t die! You have to come back unconditionally!]
“Of course.”
rattle.
Upon entering the circular room, the door was closed.
Three large mirrors stood tall like tombstones.
Each symbolizes the main dungeon day dungeon exploration dungeon.
But now one more has been added here.
[Prove your strength!]
[Advent Dungeon: Difficulty – ???]
Advent Dungeon.
It’s not the main dungeon, but rather the difficulty may be more difficult.
Because there are so many heroes who died trying to get an imprint.
“Yurnet, are you ready?”
There was no Bifrost, but it wasn’t impossible to summon a weapon.
Then you have to write it down. saved for this time.
“Oh ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!”
The black dragon roared and leaped several meters high.
On the ground, its shadow burrowed towards me. I grabbed Barisada loosely and cut it up in a semicircle.
[Physical penetration!]
Denggung.
“Kiaaaaagh!”
“It’s cracking.”
Kwajik.
I trampled on the front foot of the creature that spurted out black blood and fluttered.
Pattern identification was over a long time ago, but did you think you wouldn’t be able to catch it alone?
As long as the physical immunity problem is solved, it’s no big deal.
I smirked and burrowed into his arms.
squeak.
after about 15 minutes.
A black dragon lay face down on the sand.
The thick blood from his body formed a puddle on the floor.
I brushed the blood soaked from my sword onto the sand.
It wasn’t particularly difficult.
It was a guy who had already fought once, and now I’m stronger than I was before.
It wasn’t even worth using Exceed.
[Stage cleared!]
[You have cleared the Intermediate Advent Dungeon.]
[You have obtained the special stamp ‘Black Dragon Blood (C+)’. This imprint can be given to a hero who has challenged the dungeon.]
[Available hero – ‘Han(★★★★)’]
Woo woo woo woo woo.
Black light was floating above the black dragon’s corpse.
I moved the control window and looked at the engraving.
[Black Dragon Blood (C+ Lv. 1)]
[Pure blood that proves the dragon lineage from the beginning. Almost diluted through countless generations.]
[Effect: Physical Defense + 10%, Magic Defense + 10%]
[Unique Skill: Dragon Rin (Duration: 1 second)]
There is nothing special about the added effect.
One thing to note is the special skill Yongrin. Although there was no description of the skill, it was not difficult to guess what effect it had.
Immune to all physical and magic damage for 1 second. Performance and duration will rise as the level of the imprint skill increases.
If you look at it alone, it’s an ordinary skill, but if you think about the synergy with other skills, the story is different.
Because I have special skills that take damage back when using skills.
‘If you use the sword soul in a dragon state...’
You can use the skill without any burden.
Now you can get out of the self-destruct situation.
A pitch-black orb is spinning around me.
Reach out and the engraving ceremony will begin.
My first imprint is determined by Black Dragon Blood.
‘...of course.’
That doesn’t work.
I smiled and passed the black dragon’s corpse.
Are you satisfied with just a C-class engraving?
Then there would be no point in living and suffering in the dimensional city.
It is possible to evolve imprints through growth, but this is not enough.
[Master.]
“....”
[No more than that.]
Yurnet seems to have noticed what I’m about to do.
He said he was challenging Advent Dungeon, but he didn’t tell me about it.
“Prepare the summoning of the last weapon.”
[master! It’s still time for the 2nd Advent...]
“Please.”
I closed my eyes.
35th floor.
The scene at that time came to mind clearly.
Going through it again was a specification even if I died.
If so, I had to take this risk.
[...Are you serious?]
“Yes.”
[Okay.]
Yurnet, who had been silent, sent an answer.
good.
I took out the finest Advent Stone from my bosom.
He knew what to do from Isel.
bring it
a stronger imprint.
I won’t even say goodbye to this.
[Reminder!]
[Advent Dungeon is over. Please press the ‘Exit’ button.]
“Fuck it.”
I threw the iridescent stone at the black dragon’s corpse.
A black hand rose from the pool of blood next to the corpse and swallowed the stone.
[Warning!]
[Advent Dungeon’s difficulty has been changed to ‘Superlative’!]
Great.
The sky started to part.
