Chapter 52: Ch 52: Twelfth Floor Cleared and Thirteenth Starting

After entering the twelfth floor, the conquerors found themselves in the middle of a cemetery. Tombstones were everywhere they could see and the atmosphere of this place was cold and depressing.

As soon as they appeared here skeletons and zombies crawled out of the ground probably after detecting the life force of living beings. Normally skeletons and zombies were low level undead monsters with very limited combat prowess but the undeads here were not those low level undeads.

The skeletons who came out were Primeval Skeletons who were thousands of years old and the zombies were Ancient zombies. So even though they looked just like normal undeads actually all of them were transcendental monsters.

But they were only purple grade ones so for the conquerors they were not that big of a deal.

Actually after deploying two, almost three yellow grade monsters on the eleventh floor, the dungeon master would not be able to deploy any super strong monsters for the next few floors. So this floor might be easier to clear than the previous ones.

But still Rein and his lovers did not let their guard down and advanced carefully on this floor while taking out any undead they came across. For some time they only encountered skeletons and zombies, but soon other monsters started to show up.

And just as Rein and his group had expected, all of them were undead monsters.

Ghouls, Wraiths and bone chimeras were indigo grade and the undead bone and zombie dragons were blue. All in all the difficulty of this floor was equivalent to the other floor that they were clearing at the very beginning, so definitely the difficulty of the dungeon had went down by a notch.

After defeating most of the monsters, they finally reached a place that looked like a delapidated castle at the middle of the cemetary. After entering from that door they found themselves inside a large throne room like hall and a skeletal being was waiting for them on the throne.

This was one of the strongest undead creatures with extremely powerful magic and command skills. It was called an Archlich Overlord. But then again this was only a green grade transcendental monster and was nothing too special for Rein and his group.

Stella had a magic duel with it and she managed to get the victory in that duel quite easily too.

Just like that they managed to clear the twelfth floor very easily. Compared to other previous floors, it was a cakewalk for the conquerors.

...

After searching like that for a few more hours she decided that this type of straight forward approach was not going to work. If she kept searching like before, who knew how many years she would need to go through this whole vast area. So she decided to try a few different methods.

First she decided to use a wind magic spell to collect all the different fragrances from the air. The flower they were searching for was special, so the whole area only had one single flower of this kind. So Stella decided to first detect which areas had only a single flower of one kind.

After that she needed to see if that single flower was present in any other area or not and if the answer was yes then it was not the flower she was looking for. And if she was unable to find a flower of that kind anywhere else, then there was a high chance that it was the flower she was looking for.

This method was quite well thought out and she was able to dismiss various areas where no single flower was present. Just like that, she was able to use that method to lower her options down to only three. These three were the only unique flowers present in this area.

Then Stella went to see all the flowers and to check if they were the spring special flower or not. And her checking left her extremely bewildered. None of the three flowers that she had managed to find had any resemblance to the spring special flower she was looking for.

She did not expect this outcome at all.

She once again went to all the areas, where other single flowers were located to see if she had made any mistakes or not but it turned out that she really had not made any mistakes.

Now, there were also only two possibilities why Stella was unable to find the flower. Either this was a flower with no smell or it was inside a place that stopped any scents from leaking out.

If her first assumption was correct then it would be extremely troublesome and Tasha would have a very hard time finding her flower. As for her second assumption, her job would not be as difficult.

This flower really looked like something that would have at least some kind of smell, so she was quite confident in her second assumption and she started to search for places where this flower might be.

This approach turned out to me the correct way as very soon Stella was able to find a cave that was hidden from everyone's view with a high level formation. As soon as Stella entered the cave, a faintly sweet and unique smell came to her nose.

In a corner of this cave, she saw a plant with a blooming pink flower and a flower bud on it. This cave had quite a high amount of money and other things inside too but obviously the spring special flower was the best thing she managed to find here.

But obviously she was not going the leave the other valuables behind too so she stored everything in her inventory.

Just like that, Stella was done finding the flower she was looking for.
