YM778.TV Chapter 65 65: Picking A Floor
Argon was pondering carefully on what to choose.
\'Necropolis\' was the cheapest, and he can buy a lot of monsters along with it. While the \'Elemental Planes\' was the best among the three, it was also the pricey one, as he can only buy one monster along with it.
And the last one \'Abbysal Depths\' will give everyone an adventure they will never forget, he can buy three monsters along with it.
"System, can you explain to me what\'s the difference between the elemental planes and the one elemental floors?" he asked.
[The elemental planes as the description said, it was four lands consisting of four basic elements. The difference between the two is, that one elemental floor can help practitioners study the elements to further their understanding of elements. While the elemental planes cannot, though if they practice inside, their cultivation base will be four times faster than the outside.]
He pondered for a moment. "I should just buy the Necropolis for now, and buy the Elemental Planes for the next floor."
[Reminder to the host, the floors that are available in the system shop right now, are only for the second floor.]
Argon was taken aback, "That does mean, I will not be able to buy the Elemental Planes for my next floor?"
[It depends, because some of these floors will get an upgrade to be available on the third floor. While the others will just disappear.]
"Ok, I understand now." he stopped for a moment, then continue. "Buy the Necropolis floor and add four monsters."
[Choose the monster.
Skeleton warrior
Zombie warrior
Ghoul]
The system prompted Argon to choose which monsters he wanted to add to his Necropolis floor. He thought for a moment before making his decision.
"I choose two skeleton warriors, one undead warrior, and one ghoul," he said confidently.
The system confirmed his choice and deducted 70,000 soul coins in total, from his account. In a flash of light, a hologram of the second floor materialized in front of him.
The Necropolis floor was four times bigger than the first floor, he can also see twenty tombs placed in random locations.
There are small and medium size tombs, but what caught his attention was the huge tomb that looks like a small castle at the end of the map.
Argon didn\'t waste any more time and teleported to the second floor.
As soon as Argon arrives, everything just becomes gloomy. The land and the trees were dead, the air was thick with the stench of death and decay. The ground was uneven, covered in dirt and bones. You can tell at a glance, that no life would survive in this place.
He then began to explore the floor, and while exploring, he encountered his newly acquired monsters. Argon saw the four monsters he bought, they were wondering mindlessly. The two skeleton warriors were armed with rusty swords, and their bones creaked as they moved. The zombie warrior was covered in tattered robes and don\'t have any weapon, but its body crackled with dark energy. The ghoul was hunched over, with long claws and sharp teeth that dripped with saliva.
"System, since these monsters were Golden Core Realm, shouldn\'t they have at least a little bit of intelligence."
He asked, after all, the Golden Core Realm was at the top of the food chain in this place. If he let even one of these three monsters run amok outside, it will make those people outside shit in their pants in fear.
[This undead were the lowest, and don\'t have souls in them, and can only understand simple commands like the wolves on the first floor. The host can buy a more advanced undead in the system. Reminder to the host, if the system wants, it can make the lowest creature like slime, become a creature on par with the dragons in this dungeon. Everything is possible, in this dungeon.]
"Uhm..." He was about to annoy the system, but he thought of something. "System, you said that the system can create anything. Can it create characters from the anime?"
The Necropolis was pretty big, so it takes him some time to arrive at his destination. He can teleport right away if he wanted, but he wants to see the whole Necropolis floor with his own eyes. Furthermore, he wanted to talk more with the system.
[It should be, after all the monster that the system makes comes from the memory of the host.]
"Ohh, then what about the unfamiliar ones?" he asked.
[They come from the former host.]
"Really? Can you te-" However, before can continue the system cut him off.
[If the host planning on asking me about the past hosts, I will disappoint you that I can\'t tell you anything.]
He was quite disappointed, but didn\'t pursue the matter.
He thought teleporting straight to the nearby small tomb, but he stopped.
"Now that I become a Golden Core, I never transform into my dragon form. Let\'s see how big my dragon form becomes." He then transforms into his dragon form.
"RROOAARR"
Suddenly, a loud roar echoed through the air, if anyone was there and looked up. He would see a massive fifty meters long dragon soaring through the sky.
His body was covered in sparkling dark scales that shimmered in the light. He had razor-sharp claws that glinted in the moonlight. He had transformed himself to fly faster to arrive at his destination.
From time to time, Argon would transform into his dragon form, if he doesn\'t have anything else to do, he will transform and familiarize himself with the body.
After some time, he finally sees the tomb in the distance.
The tomb was made of stone and was covered in moss, giving them an ancient and eerie look. The only light source was the dim glow of ghostly flames that flickered in the distance.
He transformed back into his humanoid form and landed at the entrance of the tomb.
He approached the small tomb and pushed the heavy stone lid aside. Inside, he found a stash of weapons and armor that was littered on the ground. He picked up a set of sturdy leather armor and a sharp sword, and he then use identification.
In the description, the armor and the sword were both 3-star treasures. This surprised him, the system already told him that there are items or treasures like magic plants on the floor.
But he didn\'t know that it would be this generous. The items he got from the small tomb were this good, what about the item that was hidden in the traps? And the items in the huge tomb?
He was even tempted to seize all the items on this floor. Of course, he won\'t do it. It might become the reason his dungeon will crumble if he becomes greedy.
Argon explored the rest of the small tomb, searching for any hidden traps or secrets. As he ventured deeper into the tomb, he noticed that the air was getting colder, and a faint musty smell filled his nostrils. Suddenly, he heard a clicking sound, and the ground shook beneath his feet. He looked down and noticed that he had triggered a trap mechanism.
