Chapter 132 Dungeon Delving

Everyone went on a mission. Only Vanessa and Hazel remained in Dawn's headquarters to ensure everything was in order while all the rest of the members were away.

They all went together through the 'first' floor of the dungeon, which was just the entrance and not considered the first floor, but they planned to part ways after going there.

Why? The only way for them to get more powerful was to train alone and fight against beasts alone, without anyone carrying them around or saving their asses occasionally.

Aurora would be the only one in danger by doing that, considering she had to copy someone else's ability to have a better chance in combat, but that was a thing of the past! She discovered that her ability could work by touching any tissue from superhumans.

So, she stored a few strands of hair of all the members of Dawn so that she could choose what ability she wanted at any given time! It was a little weird to go around carrying strands of hair of other people, but that was the only way for her to have a good time inside the dungeon, alone, having the capability of fighting without the help of others.

They did not leave immediately but took a decent rest of two days before going toward the dungeon to explore it. Damian spent the two days eating, sleeping, and practicing his abilities, focusing more on the Necromancy Book and trying to understand his giant bloodline.

After everyone prepared themselves, each carrying a backpack to store some necessary items, they left, entering a secretive building inside the headquarters, going downstairs through a tunnel that passed through the river!

It was a tunnel made of tempered glass, meaning they could see the river as they walked on it, looking at the fishes and the plants living underwater--a beautiful scene right before the entrance of humanity's most dangerous place.

"Let's go," Damian said as he went first.

The dungeon entrance was a small structure made of stone, and everyone knew that it was not an ordinary stone but indestructible! But despite knowing that, no one knew how that stone formed and how to replicate it. It was yet another mystery of the world.

A staircase leading down. That was the first thing they saw after entering, just like all the other dungeon entrances. Without much choice, they went down, following a dark dump tunnel.

It took them around ten minutes to reach the end of that staircase, and what awaited them was a small maze-like area of tunnels, and if one followed the right direction, that would lead to the dungeon's first floor.

Of course, the maze area was not completely safe. There were beasts inside, but those were not something Damian, and the others should worry about.

'The imps I killed that time,' Damian thought as he ended the life of a small flying imp.

They swiftly moved through the tunnels, quickly finding the portal that would lead them to the first actual floor of the dungeon. Everyone passed through it, and a snowy world awaited them on the other side.

That would be their last stop because they had to part ways after reaching the first floor. Each of them had a specific mission, and the tasks often were rich people requesting powerful superhumans to gather materials from the beasts of the dungeon.

"Stay safe, all of you. Be careful of the other superhumans you find down here, and if any of us meet down here, let's help each other and leave this place alive and with our missions completed," Damian said.

They all nodded to that, saying goodbyes to each other, hugging, and all those things one would do after going on a dangerous journey.

'Let me recheck the task. Get the horn of a Mane Lizard. That's a beast from the fourth floor!'

Damian's task would require him to reach the fourth floor, which was already a dangerous place only skilled superhumans would go. But that was not even his goal!

He wanted to complete the mission, but instead of returning, he wanted to go deeper and explore as much as possible. The dungeon was the only place Damian would train in dangerous situations and have the chance to find more information about his bloodline and humankind's past, which was priceless!

Damian was not slightly worried about the Erotic Coins of his system. It was common to find superhumans inside the dungeon and other humans who lived inside the dungeon as well. So a chance to get laid and earn some coins was not out of reach.

The way to leave that floor and reach the others was something Damian already knew from his past experience inside the dungeon. But he opted not to follow the same path but to find a new one!

It was not like the dungeon had only one portal between the floors. There were many, and exploration was vital. So, Damian used his Telekineses to float, avoiding having to walk on the snow as that would hinder his movements, and went looking for a portal to leave the first floor.

He had a privileged view from the sky and could not help but realize the number of superhumans inside. The number of people delving into the dungeons increased, and many dangerous areas were not dangerous anymore after the humans took over.

'Is there something happening that I don't know about?' Damian thought.

That idea lingered inside his head for hours until he finally saw a chance to learn more about it without looking suspicious.

"Stay back!" A girl yelled, using a torch to send an Ice Wolf away.

Damian knew she was a superhuman from Earth due to her clothes, which were different from those born inside the dungeon.

Three Ice Wolves surrounded her, circling around, waiting for the right moment to leap and rip her skin off! One of the wolves did just that, and when she turned around, seeing the wolf right next to her face, she thought it was the end.

That was until the Ice Wolf magically stopped mid-air, and a handsome youth descended from the sky, looking like a divinity.
