My World Traveling System: The Harbinger of Death

Chapter 153: A Hunting Domain Inside a Dungeon?



Chapter 153: A Hunting Domain Inside a Dungeon?

-----

After the lunch ended, the party continued their hunting until a few hours, this time, Frank had decided to spend the last two hours grinding inside a Hunting Domain set inside of the Dungeon, where Orb could surprisingly enter.

Although those such as Ruby already had entered these different spaces, the rest of his party seemed amazed by its effects.

Although the space seemed just the same as the Dungeon, the name of such was different, being called "Obscure Lair of Crawling Beasts".

The most interesting thing about the monsters in this new Hunting Domain is that they were remarkably similar to the original ones in the Dungeon, such as Giant Scorpions, Mandragoras, Slimes, and so on, although they were strengthened and more powerful and didn\'t leave a Mana Core nor a corpse when they died.

"Amazing… These monsters are so strange, they just disappear when we kill them… And instead of Mana Cores, we get these strange jewels named Magic Crystals. I wonder if we can use them to increase our Cultivation…" said Vheslia.

"No, I have already tested before, but I can convert them into App Points… If I manage to one day unlock the App Shop that\'s it. Well, on Earth they were used for all sorts of things though, such as making magic equipment, potions, magic technology, and more, they were like fuel for many things and even moved a lot of the underworld economy," said Frank.

"Oh I see, just like Mana Cores in here, I guess. But their composition is not related to our world to an extent… Is it because their source energy is from Earth and not our world?" wondered Gwendolyn.

"That must be the case. After all, what you need to increase your cultivation here is the world\'s source energy, which can be gathered through Mana Cores or the various cultivation resources that people without my System need," said Frank.

"Axe Slash! Gust!" roared Asterion, as he unleashed a strong slashing attack with his axe enhanced with the speed given by the wind produced through Gust, cutting off a large Demon Mandragora, a Rank 3 Monster (In Earth Rank), which exploded into a cloud of black smoke not long after.

Poof!

Asterion glanced at the floor as a few items were left.

"Instead of a Mana Core and a corpse, we get these items in exchange. I would not say that it\'s not worth it to hunt these monsters. There is even a chance to get equipment, potions, Skill Books, and other useful stuff. I guess we have to make a good balance between the two," said Asterion, as he grabbed a red-colored potion, a Healing Potion, which the party barely used as Frank was already quite the good healer and then there was also Kamei who had healing spells with her Miracle Magic.

"An HP Potion, a Magic Crystal, and a… what is this?" wondered Asterion, grabbing a tiny square-shaped red jewel.

"That\'s a Strength Rune, it can give a Strength Bonus to an Equipment that is infused into, the equipment needs a Rune Orifice though, and the only equipment with those are the ones dropped by monsters," said Frank.

"Oh, I see, aniki, can you save this?" asked Asterion, as he gave the items to Frank so he could save them on his Inventory.

"Sure thing… And with that Mandragora, it should be the number 30 monster… right?" asked Frank, as far from the party, a large mass of darkness began to converge, as a Boss Monster emerged!

"Oh? So these things automatically spawn, how interesting," said Vheslia.

"What is it?" wondered Gwendolyn.

"Em… A giant… slime!" said Cathyl in surprise, as the black smoke dissipated, revealing a three meters tall mass of slime bouncing around!

The creature was completely purple-colored, and on its center, there was a large jewel that seemed to be its Core. Alongside this, it had a tiny crown on its \'head\'.

"That\'s… a Slime King, Rank 4 in Earth\'s Rank Classification, it should be as strong as a Rank 1 Upper to Peak Stage Monster… If we all work together it shouldn\'t be an issue!" said Frank, leading his little army as he immediately tried to suppress the Slime King\'s charge through his Heavy Evil Eye, unleashing a strong gravitational pull into the creature\'s body!

CLASH!

"Boooooohh…!" cried the giant slime, as it was flattened into the surface!

"Oh, good job!" said Gwendolyn, as she unleashed a powerful blazing wind attack towards the slime, impacting it with it and generating loud explosions!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

"Boooh! Boh! Boh!"

However, Frank\'s Heavy Evil Eye effect quickly came to an end a the Slime immediately leaped high into the air, shaping its body and unleashing several slime projectiles, which were all poisonous!

Flash! Flash! Flash!

"Get behind me!" said Vheslia, protecting Asterion Hilvera, and others that were near her through a large Shadow Wall.

"Annabelle!" said Gwendolyn, as she rushed towards her daughter and generated a wall of flames protecting herself.

"My lady, I shall become your shield," said Nezhit, jumping in front of Kamei.

"Ah, Nezhit!" said Kamei in surprise.

Meanwhile, Nezhit put himself in front of Kamei while Frank simply took the poisonous hits as he wanted to increase his resistance and his HP did not seem to lower that much.

"Yeah, you\'re not getting anywhere bud, Heavy Evil Eye!" said Frank, jumping towards the Slime King and pulling it into the ground again with a strong gravitational force!

"Damn, I am going to spam this a lot am I not?" thought Frank, who was already getting addicted to the use of this powerful Skill.

"Now, gang on it!" said Frank, who wanted the rest to use their skills so they could level them up through the higher skill proficiency that killing bosses offered.

"Flying Knives!" said Hilvera, unleashing her special technique by combining Gust with other Wind Attribute Spells and her knives, sending them like bullets at an incredible speed towards the Slime King, dealing some large damage into its body, although it seemed to not be noticeable at sight, Frank could see its HP decreasing.

Boom!

"Tempest Axe!" roared Asterion, combining Gust with his Axe Techniques, he created a new Technique that could let him release a strong slash of wind with his axe, clashing against the Slime King and leaving a large hole hat slowly filled itself with the rest of the slime\'s body.

Clash!

"Boooh!"

The Slime roared in anger, as it freed itself from Frank\'s Heavy Evil Eye and generated several magic circles around itself, conjuring large spears made of purple poison!

"Booooh!"

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The poison spears clashed into the ground, impacting several magic barriers as the Slime used the opportunity where everyone was defending to close in!

"Where are you going?!" roared Vheslia, emerging from within the shadows through Shadow Manipulation, and firing several Dark Spears and Shadow Bullets towards the Slime King!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

"Geeehh!" cried the Slime King, falling into the ground as Frank used his Heavy Evil Eye again on it!

"Blinding Holy Light Ray!" said Kamei, generating a strong ray of holy light, impacting the Slime King\'s body once more and blasting a large chunk of its mass, while making the rest boil a bit.

Boom!

"Boohhhh…!"

"Storming Axe Slashes!" roared Cathyl, using her burly body and powerful physique to unleash a combination of Gust and Axe Techniques like her son, clashing against the Slime and reducing its HP by a lot!

Clash!

"And now, Fire Arrows!" said Annabelle, unleashing three arrows made of fire, clashing them against the Slime King, and finishing it!

Poof!

The creature quickly disappeared into black smoke, as a few items were left in its place!

"Phew, that was interesting. I guess because we are so many it still ended defeated quite easily," said Vheslia.

"Indeed, and Ruby and the rest didn\'t participate, or it would have been even easier," said Frank.

"Grawr!" said Ruby, she, Zhulong, and Ginseng were mostly on standby while glancing at the spectacle.

"Let me see the drop now!" said Vheslia, as if she were someone addicted to MMO games, she rushed towards the loot, finding a few shin items.

"Magic Crystals, Potions, a few runes… A Skill Book… two, actually!" said Vheslia.

Frank walked towards Vheslia as he glanced at the Skill Books, one of them was a Poison Synthesis Skill Book, while the other was a Poison Magic Skill Book…

"Is this the power that the Slime King used? Interesting," said Vheslia.

"What? Do you want to keep them? I will be taking the Poison Magic Skill Book, so you can keep the Synthesis," said Frank.

"Eh? That\'s… I want the magic one!" said Vheslia while pouting.

"Well maybe we can kill another one tomorrow or past tomorrow, you can get the Skill there," said Frank.

"This is unfair!" said Vheslia like a little and spoiled girl, although she was rather old.

Frank only gave her a cheeky grin, teasing her a bit more.

"Vheslia stops arguing for something so stupid," said Gwendolyn.

"AH! Okay…" sighed Vheslia.

"There is some equipment as well!" said Hilvera, grabbing a beautiful blue pendant.

"And there is even a bracelet!" said Annabelle.

"You can sort it out, I checked it and there are four accessories. I already have my own and they don\'t seem any stronger than mine, so feel free to grab them for you guys," said Frank.

"I want this ring then!" said Annabelle, putting on a beautiful, purple-colored ring, named Poisonous Slime Ring, that enhanced her Mana, Magic, and Resistance while giving her the Poison and Toxin Resistance Skill.

"I will be taking this pendant then!" said Hilvera, putting on a dazzling blue pendant named \'Slime\'s Pendant\', which also boosted Mana, Magic, and Resistance, while giving her the Water Bullet Skill.

"I suppose I\'ll take this," said Gwendolyn, equipping a blue-colored bracelet named \'Slime\'s Bracelet\', with a similar effect to the pendant.

"And I can take this then, alright?" said Cathyl, grabbing another ring.

"Hey that\'s not fair, now what do I get?" sighed Asterion.

"Well you already grabbed an accessory for yourself from the previously dropped items, young man," said Cathyl.

"Ah… well, yeah, but still…" said Asterion.

"Yeah Asterion, we already got some equipment, don\'t be greedy," said Kamei, patting Asterion\'s shoulders.

"Okay…" said Asterion.

"I know your pain, it was always horrible when you go to kill a boss with a party and the party takes all the loot instead of you! I hated MMO games like those! Later on, the Game Developers implemented personal drops, but still, those times were rough," sighed Frank, although only Kamei slightly understood what he said.

"Eh? What is Frank talking about?" asked Asterion.

"I don\'t know…" said Hilvera.

"Weird things from his world I guess!" said Annabelle.

After this, the party quickly packed things up and left the Dungeon, not before hugging Orb, although she resisted a bit.
