Chapter 3:
ENDLESS ADVENTURE
At this time, Rena suddenly received a notification from the security system that Oskk's life sign had ended, and discovered that a strange life with no recorded data was a member of the 4th floor inside, so all the undead went there according to Rena's instructions.
In the room where Phuc was sleeping, the liquid creature sensed the pulse of many objects approaching, so it swallowed him, brought him into the storage space, and then it crawled under the cabinet to hide.
At this time, Rena was using her specialized skill to share her vision, when the undead approached, the life sign disappeared, Rena < strange, why did the life sign disappear right in the room >, she controlled the undead to come in and share her vision, but could not find anything unusual, Rena (even though she did not want to disturb the dead, she had to use the spirit summoning technique to ask).
Rena (who is resting in the tomb of zander, answer my call, answer me Oskk). From nowhere, blue lights appeared and gathered, Oskk's image appeared but only the upper half, and looked quite pale, you could see through him. Rena (Oskk, tell me why you died?), Oskk (I was killed by something in a human disguise). Rena (camouflage?, so you've seen both monster and human forms), Oskk (yes in monster form it's very dangerous, it's extremely fast, in monster form its eyes are always closed but it can easily know the location of its prey with just a small sound or scent, I cast a sound and scent reduction spell on it but it still dodged all my attacks and chased me, should this be called instinct?), Rena (what kind of instinct is it to dodge and chase without smell or sight or hearing. Putting that aside, does it have a weakness?), Oskk (probably in human form, but be careful, even though its fighting ability is reduced it's much smarter, I was ambushed and fell into a trap, it attacked me from behind, attacking in succession without giving me a chance to counterattack, and it's smart enough to use weapons and objects effectively), Rena (sounds like a human, are you sure it's not human?), Oskk (i'm sure, because it itself has a huge amount of cursed energy, it was released when i was about to finish it off), Rena (you can finish it so why not), Oskk (like i said, i was trapped, when i was about to finish it off, it suddenly started crying, funny isn't it, i thought i had the upper hand so i just cursed it a little but unexpectedly, it whispered some spell, the cursed energy erupted, i couldn't move for a few seconds, but during that time something entered me from behind and i was torn apart), Rena (you died because of you, who else, you should have killed it without saying much, let's end it here, i'll find a way to revive you). , Rena < as Oskk said it seems that the monster is a bit higher level than Oskk, yet it can use those two pieces of equipment, there is only one possibility that it was just born so it has not been awakened at the altar, if it has not been awakened then it can use weapons of a higher level but there will be side effects, because if it has been awakened then there will be a system to prevent it, according to Oskk's story it is quite cunning, but I don't believe that much, I need to know what its abilities are and if it knows the uses of those equipment). Rena sighed (I give up, I have to use these zombies to collect information about it first and then plan a specific response later).
At this moment Phuc woke up and opened his eyes, he saw thousands of stars, he looked around in confusion, he realized he was in a zero gravity environment, (these items, they were food ingredients and the pile of gold that the other swallowed, so that was inside it, it looked like an endless universe), Realizing that he was swallowed, he was scared and wanted to get out of here, then suddenly he was taken out, (huh, I'm out, but where is this) he realized he was lying in another room, he thought in his head < you brought me here, right, why?) he understood what it meant, according to the message it sent, there were many strange objects approaching the place before so it took me to another place, (strange objects that weren't strange creatures, and there were many of them too), I immediately thought of zombies because they were dead so they weren't considered a creature, plus there were a lot of them, < It's also possible that this place had experimented on something and failed, causing such an evacuation, maybe that's why the pig man took out his cloak and sword from it and equipped it, this time only the liquid went down into the shadow, while the monster without a skin followed me, after I finished preparing everything, I stepped out of the room and it was suddenly swallowed by the liquid and pulled down, (seriously, you guys really let me go alone) < Anyway, they're under my shadow, they can create a surprise attack.
Scene change. Rena (where is it after all, how could it disappear without a trace like that), < huh who called> [Message], < Moratyl, what's the matter, didn't you go downstairs or something>, Moratyl < The boss downstairs asked her to move all the weapons down to strengthen the defense, because of the magic barrier, I had to come up here to call >. Rena < you're kidding I'm sure that's your personal property...> not letting Rena finish speaking Moratyl interrupted < that's an order, you probably don't want the humans to come here and use that equipment right? , if so then do it, if you want to have an opinion then talk to the boss downstairs > . Swish Swish, the sound stopped playing, Rena ( okay I will make anyone who dares to take your relics for themselves pay the price ) she turned back to look at the mansion ( you will be able to hide for a while longer )
Back when Phuc just left the room, (I thought it was following me but it was hiding under the shadow), I was a bit scared when I woke up in a strange place, my heart ached, maybe it was both homesickness and fear of strange places, I told myself <I will get used to it>, I continued to deceive myself that everything would be fine, that optimistic mask would be put on again until I saw a series of corpses along the hallway, there was an area that was burned, surrounded by the corpses of maids, they all had horns on their heads, I looked at the head of a girl rolling on the floor (what the hell, calm down, it could not be the pig that did it before and it was already dead), <or was it caused by something that lost control, the head was separated from the body but the neck showed signs of being bitten and torn apart, there was also a corpse with its head crushed, the condition of this corpse could not be identified anymore>, I swallowed saliva slowly went to another place on the way will see scattered corpses of maids, after a while my heart beat faster when I saw a corpse limping, I immediately hid in the corner and thanks to that black liquid took out the sword, holding the sword tightly I swallowed saliva < that is definitely a zombie, but how many are there, the corpses here are caused by it, this is a world with magic so there must have been a fight to fight these guys, the scorch marks are proof, after all the weakness of zombies is fire, the ones that lost their heads or had their heads severely damaged will probably not become zombies right >, I slowly approached it but because the surroundings were too quiet, I only went halfway when it heard the sound of me approaching so it immediately rushed at me, (damn) I swung the sword across its neck, a sharp slash, its head fell off its neck, my hand had The slight cold feeling is probably a side effect of using a superior weapon. But unfortunately, because I didn't notice that behind the wide open door of the room, there was another zombie, it screamed as if to signal my position, dozens of them ran from many places along the hallway, even the stairs were running out non-stop, not to mention I also heard the sound of some creature nearby, my heart was beating very fast (fuck, there were as many of them as the Yuan army, who could compete with them) I had no choice but to run into the empty room and ask the liquid creature to take me into its storage space to hide, when I successfully escaped, (there were so many of them I couldn't fight, I could only swing my sword a few times before my hand froze, so they seemed similar to the undead in the fantasy books I've read or watched, but there was no such thing as infection and running fast like those zombie movies, in fantasy books I know that undead are usually skeletons or vampires, zombies are the subordinates of vampires but they don't have the ability to run like that , that's absurd. So what did they do with the corpses of the maids earlier, luckily I didn't meet them early, but more importantly, it's not safe outside anymore) I asked the liquid to transport me to another place as far away as possible, sitting here for a long time with nothing to do so I tried to take the knife I got after killing the pig man, testing to see if it had any skills, you can swing it many times but every time you swing it your hand goes numb, if that sword froze the bones causing pain in the hand, this knife caused the fingers to suffer damage but very little, after swinging it for a while I unconsciously found a way to use its special ability when using the knife suddenly covered in golden light, I tried to slash, the first time I felt my attack speed increased a lot and so did the force of the slash, the second time the speed was still the same but the force of the slash was stronger I created a pretty strong wind force when I swung it the third time I felt like my arm was about to fall off this time I swinging the knife 5 times harder than the second time and my arm was almost crushed, the pain was like a warning that my arm had a fracture (playing stupid again and again and now my right arm is useless, I don't know when it will end), <I understand the basic ability of this knife, it has the ability to enhance the last normal attack three times, it's extremely painful but my arm is about to be crushed, I have to use it wisely, but I don't know what the sword's ability is, and the cloak, I completely forgot>, I decided to rest a bit and reorganize the weapons in here even though there are only two items. After being brought to the new place, I crawled out of the storage space (that space was like an endless world, it was like another world, not a warehouse anymore). I held the knife firmly in my hand. Even though it was still sore, it could still attack and defend quite well. This time, I found every way to adapt quickly. If the liquid wrapped around my body, it was like I had a cushion, every time it moves it will be smoother and won't make any noise but the attack ability is weak because I'm not sure how many times I can attack and then have to rest due to the side effects of using weapons and skills beyond my level so I tried another method which is to make it spread out on the floor, it presses down on the floor and spreads out in a circle under my feet within a 1 meter radius, wherever I move it will follow, I stand in the center and every time I move it will move like another shadow of mine, because it doesn't cover me so it can harden into a blade and attack when the enemy gets close, or create a floor full of spikes, in addition because I walk on it so it also cancels the sound of my footsteps, this method meets the necessary criteria now, because I walk on it so its teeth and eyes have been hidden, (where are your eyes and mouth, so virtual), I received a signal from it that if it wants to have it, it will have it, if it doesn't have it, it won't affect its ability to move and determine orienteering, it doesn't need to look because it senses everything around it and it has a different perspective like a radar, if it's within range it can recognize the color, shape, and terrain around it from every angle, (this op is like that, what about you) I looked at the monster with the blood red skin, (you're much worse than your brother, kid), <thinking about the black liquid being strong and versatile while it doesn't know what to do,> I looked at it and pondered for a bit <maybe it's a late-developer and extremely powerful when it matures, like the late-game generals I've played>. <Just in case, I should learn more about its ability to store living creatures>, I looked around, luckily there were a few white mice here, I put them in the black hole created by the liquid from its body. It looked like dropping something into the black sea rather than a black hole, it was swallowed, put in five, two came out immediately, one was eaten by the red monster, the other two saw the food I stored inside so they didn't come out, (so if they wanted to, they could come out on their own, unless another creature forced them to stay inside or they didn't want to come out, then they were kept inside,) I asked them to bring out one and I locked that mouse in a cage and told them to clean the other two, then the red monster immediately put the mouse straight into its mouth and chewed it up, blood splattered out, and the other mouse was digested by the slime, I heard its hissing and miserable cries, the one locked in the cage saw that and was timid and scared. ( let's see if it's locked or isolated it can escape ) , because I remember if it's stored inside then just thinking about wanting to escape will throw it out whether the liquid itself wants it or not . I put it inside . A few minutes passed but it still didn't come out, I confirmed that being covered by something, I couldn't get out by myself, so I took a closet next to it, I crawled into the closet and asked it to swallow me back inside, I really couldn't get out without getting out of the closet, I tried asking it to bring me out while I was inside and I was brought out normally, <so it could force me out if it wanted>, (okay, the steps to learn about the skills are done, now let's move on to the tactics. Because I walk on it, my footsteps are silenced, the ability to attack around is quite good, it can create blades to attack or create spikes to prevent enemies from approaching around, not to mention it can swallow me instantly and the red monster inside will attack by surprise when the enemy is just brought in).
(everything was ready, now the zombies had no chance to solo) I was confident in my victory, I held the knife tightly and opened the door and walked on the black liquid. (still couldn't find clothes to wear, I felt a bit cold), I took out the red cloak and put it on temporarily and left, after many times of sleeping and waking up in a strange place and being transported to another place, I was completely disoriented and lost all sense of time, there was no window to tell day or night, there was no map, I didn't know how far it had taken me so now I had to grope my way around. After a while, smelling the rotten smell, I became alert, gripped the knife tightly and got into a fighting stance, as expected there were three zombies lurking here <even though I guessed there were zombies due to the rotten smell from the corpses, there were three of them, should I use three enhancements to finish them off right away?> I thought again and decided not to use skills, let's save them for the stronger ones. I immediately rushed past the first two and then rushed in to perform a strong chop on the third one, the other two zombies immediately turned around and attacked me from behind, but when they stepped into the black circle under his feet, sharp spikes shot up and pierced through their bodies, the zombie that Phuc chopped right on its shoulder struggled and pushed him to the ground, then was immediately pulled into the storage space by the black shadow below, as soon as he was pulled in, the red monster inside was waiting for its prey to fall in. It grabbed the zombie's head and crushed it with both hands. (one was dead, two were left) I took the knife and made two strong chops on the heads of the remaining two, even though half of their heads were cut off they were still alive, seeing me uneasy the liquid created more sharp spikes to stab up, the long sharp spikes pierced through the zombies' bodies and locked them up, this time I chopped off their heads for them to die, (fuck, I have to destroy their heads to kill them, they only die when their heads are cut off or destroyed, cutting them in half or piercing their heads won't kill them, if I have a mace or hammer type weapon it's easy to smash their heads), I realized in the games or anime I've watched that the undead are resistant to stabbing attacks and poison or ice, darkness or something..., my weapon is a very sharp short sword and its abilities are unknown but looking at its appearance it definitely has skills for the user, after dealing with all the zombies I saw sparks flying out from their bodies, the body the body was still intact, I touched it with my hand but nothing happened, I have a habit of putting everything in my pocket every time I play a game because I feel like I'm getting a reward from killing monsters, so I'm craving to loot, I caught all the fireflies and stored them all in liquid, (no skills dropped, how boring, at least I have to have a beginner skill to farm, all this time I've been using tactics to fight against zombies, at least when I'm in isekai I have to have some buff, in the old world I was farming for free but here it's still the same, not really because having two good pets helps a bit. ), I continued walking and found more zombies, since they were just mindless monsters, I changed my strategy to make it easier to fight, first I crawled into the world inside the liquid, the liquid would spread its body out as much as possible to bring each one in, the rest was up to me and the other one to take care of, with the zombies dying inside, the dropped items would automatically be in this space so there was no need to store them here, just throw the corpse out of this space, repeating this many times, the yellow dots piled up but this was an infinite space and everything was floating, I was quite confused when the pile of yellow dots didn't separate and fly in many directions but they stuck together to form a large bright dot, (just noticed there was a passive skill box here, white, let's open it and see) the box disappeared when I tried to open it, this time my chest hurt a little but everything was fine, when i was trying to stabilize my breathing after the heart attack, i couldn't breathe for 47 seconds, this time i was quite scared, the heart attack wasn't that painful but it made me unable to breathe for a short period of time, after a long period of pain i was preparing to wait for the next prey when i received a notification from the liquid, it said that it had entered a very important room and i needed to go out and check it out right away, at this moment i realized that they all had intelligence, when i went out i stood there dumbfounded looking at the pile of papers and the map on the wall, (they were smart enough to judge this room as important to them) i read the pile of papers they contained a lot of secret information, i learned about the shortcuts in this 4th floor i determined that the dungeon had a total of 20 floors, and the human side was only preparing to raid this floor the bosses on other floors were mentioned by numbers but not by name or any other information to keep the information confidential the notes only briefly mentioned this floor and nothing else share with other floors. This 4th floor boss is only written as number 4, has been seriously injured, lost the ability to fight, and has been sealed with a recovery ban, <the boss is seriously injured, has been sealed with a recovery ban, and has lost the ability to fight, this is a good opportunity, I can move more easily when this floor boss can be easily defeated. But I feel like this is not simple> I continued reading and learned that this floor has a magic sensor, it reacts to living creatures, and the location of the forge where the skill extraction tool is located and the location of the rooms containing the remaining language skill crystals, I have the map, and the human side is approaching here very close. (should i survive here and wait for the humans to come, if i read it right there are still more monsters stronger than the pig before), after a while of thinking (should i get all the skill crystals and the extractor first and then think about it later), i took all the necessary tools and left this room, but there was nothing necessary here except for the map.
Leaving the room, I had already taken almost all the crystals containing language skills as scheduled. As for the human language, they had thrown it away because they thought it was unnecessary. As for me, I needed it to communicate with humans in this world. But the problem was where they threw it away, I didn't know. That was the pain. Phuc (only the monster language, magic language, and beastman language were not taken. As for the human language, there was no location, so I couldn't do anything. Haizz, I had already searched all the basements. This strange mansion had 4 basements, one connecting to another, deep underground. Not to mention that each floor was incredibly large. Now I had just reached the first floor above ground where the corpses of the demon maids were scattered everywhere.
