I Noticed That It Was an Academy After 10 Years

224.Dungeons Are Not Playgrounds (1)

“Wow, it’s over?!”

“I guess so.”

“Wow, shit, I thought I was going to die.”

“Me too…”

“Are you all injured?”

“I think I have a bruise on my arm.”

“Would you like to extend your arm?

While Karina walked around her group and treated the injured, I examined the battered body of the earth dragon.

First of all, the teeth seem to be useful as a weapon material, and the blood is said to be an alchemy material, so I think I can fill the flask I brought, rip off the skin, and process it into armor for Lewis to wear.

After all, a high-risk monster is a bonanza.

Although it was difficult to catch it, it was a ground dog, so I knocked it to the ground and beat it, so it lost its senses.

Although its last breath was a bit threatening, it met its end in a dull way as it forced its mouth shut with a pillar and made it explode inside its body.

“I finished this dungeon easily.”

“The wyvern was really annoying though.”

Lennie said as he sat down next to me. I took the beef jerky out of my pocket, tore it in half, and handed it to Lennie. Lennie took the beef jerky and put it in his mouth

“Wow… “

“Thanks to you, don’t you feel sober?”

“That’s right.”

“John, what is your next schedule?”

“After a few days of rest, I go to the foggy graveyard.”

“Ah, I can finally get some rest…”

Sif lay down on the floor, sighing in relief. It seemed like he didn’t even care if his clothes got dirty. Well, it’s funny how much dust I got covered in on the way here, and now I’m clean.

“Sif. I will set up camp here and go extract useful materials from the bodies of Drake and Wyvern.”

“I hope the material is intact. If there are a lot of scratches, the price goes down a lot…”

“Production.”

“Wow, that’s big.”

“This should be enough space to rest. Everyone, take a rest here! And Lennie, although it may be inconvenient, I would like to ask you to be on the outer perimeter. Elisa and Shuri cast a protective spell on the building. It doesn’t matter if I’m weak.”

“Four!”

“Uh, okay.”

“Sif, we are coming quickly after finishing the capture.”

“Just leave it to me.”

We immediately pulled the cart and set off to extract materials from the monsters’ corpses.

——

“This is the foggy graveyard…”

[Gye, contractor, the atmosphere here is a bit eerie…]

What if you’re scared?

I knocked three times to tell Lue not to worry about the unusually scared cover and looked at the entrance to the dungeon.

“Hmm.”

There’s fog starting around the entrance. As a test, I bit the people around me and made the phoenix flame bloom all over my body. My whole body looked like it was going to be good at fire billiards, but it would return to its original state anyway when I turned off the fire.

Even though I felt like I was being pushed away little by little, I gathered strength after seeing the fog creeping into the space again.

“It’s warm~”

“Mister, wouldn’t it be possible to put a pot on top of your body and cook?”

“That’s a really novel way to use it. Sif. Are there enough supplies in the cart?”

“I packed a week’s worth of food, extra iron bars, and all the household goods! I also received guidance from the Explorers Guild to the confirmed areas!”

After all, it’s Shipra. Sif, who had prepared herself without saying a word, walked up to me and handed me a map.

When I glanced at the map, there was nothing drawn on it except for the beginning.

“Hmm.”

In fact, it’s like there’s no map. Well, that’s true of all unexplored dungeons. What was the map like in the original… It had monsters constantly popping out of the fog, so the dungeon itself was more like a large circular plaza.

“Everyone pay attention.”

Everyone looked at me at my call. The faces of the party seemed relatively calm, as if the gem of experience they had previously explored in the Dragon’s Tomb had helped.

Well, I went through a dungeon where a wyvern ran from above and a drake ran at me while drooling from below, so I guess I’d be scared of those undead. It looks a bit scary, so the eye terror is worse this way.

“The Fog Graveyard is not a place where powerful monsters exist, unlike the Dragon Tomb or the Steel Forest that we entered earlier.”

A forest of steel that is so incredibly strong that only level 2 magic or aura can cause significant damage.

The Dragon’s Tomb, constantly harassed by Drake and Wyvern.

Unlike those two, the Fog Cemetery is a dungeon where enemies that you would only see in lower-level dungeons appear.

It is the easiest in terms of basic difficulty, but obstacles that are different from the other two dungeons drastically increase the difficulty of this dungeon.

“Do you see it? “Even if we use every means we can, this fog can only be pushed out and not disappear.”

“Well, then… If we get far away… “

“Okay. When entering this dungeon, you must never move more than ten steps away from your party. The moment you get far away, you will be surrounded by fog and will have to fight monsters that may come from nowhere.”

This dungeon was notorious in the original because of its limited visibility. No matter how weak the monster is, the limited vision is an annoying penalty, and the boss was not easy, just because the minor mobs were easy.

There was even a problem that the boss had to go around the entire dungeon to find it one by one.

“Karina, your role is important in this dungeon. For this dungeon only, Karina moves while positioned on the waist of the party members and uses purification magic when she gives her signal.”

“Please leave it to me!”

Karina nodded her head with a happy look on her face. In the previous two dungeons, she felt sorry because she just watched from the back, but it seemed like she had something to do.

“Milia.”

“Huh?”

“You keep this.”

I took out a small lamp from my bag and handed it to Milia. After receiving her lamp, Milia tilted her head and asked.

“Why the lamp?”

“This will be the last means of confirming your location when you are far from your group or when the fog becomes thick. If you think it’s dangerous, stick to Lennie instead. “It may be a hindrance, but it’s better than getting bitten by zombies.”

“Okay! I will definitely do that!”

“When clinging, you shouldn’t hold on to your arms?”

“Yes!”

“Man, what is that lamp that gives it such power?”

“I just lit the fire with the flame of the phoenix.”

“Ah.”

A lamp lit with the flame of the phoenix also has a slight purifying power. At most, it would just block access, but against low-level undead, this was enough.

“Make sure you all have one too. And just stand right behind me.”

“Four!”

“Yes…”

I took out an extra lamp, lit it with the Phoenix flame, and handed it to Elisa and Shuri.

“Sif. For this dungeon exploration, you will be stuck pulling a cart. “

“This is a dungeon where you have to move in a close formation, right?”

“Okay. And if you can no longer pull the cart, switch places with Viola.”

“Me?”

“Due to the nature of this dungeon, there won’t be much to do unless you meet the dungeon owner. Did you bring as many flasks with flammable liquid as I said?”

“That’s all that’s hanging from my waist.”

“Good job. Deal with lesser undead with the sword on your prosthetic arm, but tell me if it doesn’t work properly. “I will repair it right away.”

Who else is left?

“Louis. You take the lead as always, but as soon as you spot a large figure in the fog, immediately raise your hand and signal. There will be undead around him, so you have to use large-scale magic to wipe them out. .When their form appears blurry.”

An easy dungeon if you just keep what you need to protect.

That was the foggy graveyard.

In the game, it was a dungeon that had to be beaten by constantly overtreating Karina.

However, unlike games, I planned to capture it in a relatively standard way. If you push everything away with Karina’s power, you won’t be able to get the real reward of this dungeon.

In the game, it was an item that had effects close to entertainment, but in reality, it could be much more useful.

“Lenny. You just have to keep guarding the rear.”

“I feel a little uneasy being away from Karina.”

“Okay. Because Karina will be in the middle of the formation.”

Lenny nodded her head at my words and returned to the last room of her group.

“Then, before we enter, we will form our formation first. Everyone goes to the location I said.”

Lewis and I are in the lead. After that, Elisa, Millia, and Shuri Viola took their place in a form surrounding Karina, followed immediately by Sif, and finally, Lenny took her place.

At this level, there should be no problem breaking through the dungeon.

“Everyone, make sure you haven’t forgotten anything and tell me! Once you get in, it will be difficult to get out until you clear it!”

“I am ready, Johan.”

“Well, me too…”

“Lewis and I took care of everything!”

“Karina and I are ready.”

“Mister, I’m fully prepared too.”

“I’m ready too!”

“I’m ready to pull the cart.”

“Then, from now on, we will enter the foggy graveyard!”

“Yes!”

We entered the final dungeon, the Fog Cemetery.
