Chapter 60: A New Dungeon?

"What support has the guild provided this time?"

Elena asked, knowing that if it was a mission assigned by the guild, some assistance would be provided based on the mission's objectives and actual conditions, which also served as a part of the advance reward.

"Ten vials of high-grade Holy Water from the Dawn Church, three [Necrotic Strike] spell scrolls, and two [Command Undead] spell scrolls."

"All items are aimed at aiding against the undead!" William nodded.

He was familiar with these items; high-grade Holy Water from the Dawn Church cost one hundred gold coins per vial, and he had just bought one a few days ago to awaken the Lucky Brooch relic.

[Necrotic Strike] is a first-level spell, and [Command Undead] is a second-level spell. Generally, a first-level spell scroll is valued between 10 to 50 gold coins, and a second-level spell scroll between 100 to 200 gold coins.

The support from the mercenary guild this time is quite impressive!

"Yes, considering the main adversaries might be undead creatures, the guild prepared these countermeasure magic items."

Jason paused, then, without changing his expression, snatched the last chicken leg from Lumbro and said:

"So, the guild's requirements are clear; it's best if the cause of the unusual events in Kora Village can be investigated and dealt with."

"If that's not possible, gather relevant intelligence, then head to the nearest mercenary guild to notify the kingdom's army and the Churches of the Gods to handle it."

"I have no objections. I agree!" Elena nodded.

"I agree too!!!" Nichole raised her hand high to signal her agreement.

"I have no objections." William naturally wouldn't object; such an important mission meant another large experience gain, bringing him closer to becoming a Silver Mage.

Moreover, if this turns out to be a newly formed dungeon, that would be interesting!

In the previous life's "Gods Apocalypse" game, various special dungeons would appear on the continent of Fanor from time to time. Some were ancient, while others were formed due to special reasons. Some were unique spaces, while others were dangerous areas on the continent itself, all collectively referred to as dungeons.

The rules and scenarios within each dungeon varied; you might encounter snow falling from the sky with molten lava beneath your feet, or shattered floating islands and mountains.

Dungeons contained common creatures like goblins, but also terrifying beings like ancient dragons and divine fiends.

After players arrived, if a player cleared a dungeon, it could be recorded by the system as a Dungeon Crystal, allowing players to re-enter and challenge it.

However, clearing dungeons was not easy, and in the previous life, most Dungeon Crystals were in the hands of major guilds, treated as extremely precious resources for their own players to reuse.

A few players who owned Dungeon Crystals made a fortune by renting them out.

So, William was curious, if this turns out to be a newly formed dungeon, would he receive a Dungeon Crystal upon clearing it? He couldn't help but feel excited at the thought!

Lumbro didn't even look up, as he didn't care about team affairs and only needed to stand in front of his teammates during adventures.

Seeing everyone agree to take on the mission, Jason also nodded in agreement.

After all, they might encounter rare undead creatures, which would be a valuable experience for Nichole's growth.

Helping Nichole gain experience and insight from various battles was a task given to him by the king himself. Nichole, though immensely talented, had been tutored in the palace to break through to the gold level, but without the baptism of real combat, advancing to the legendary level was nearly impossible.

He felt like he was becoming a nagging mother, Jason worried briefly, then decided not to dwell on these sad thoughts.

"Then it's decided. We'll meet directly at the mercenary guild tomorrow, take the mission, and head straight to Kora Village. Everyone, make sure to prepare today."

Jason made his final arrangements, planning to return home to inform his father of the latest news he had received from William and to arrange for someone to investigate discreetly.

Everyone agreed, understanding the urgency of the mission. They wouldn't have the luxury of leisure anymore.

After lunch, William decided not to continue reading and returned to his residence directly.

Given that the mission could take a significant amount of time, he had some arrangements to make.

Upon returning home, William summoned Joyce, his ever-elegant butler, and instructed him:

"I will need to leave for a while soon, please manage the affairs of the estate in my absence. Instruct Welf and the others to enhance the estate's surveillance. Note any special occurrences, and we'll discuss them upon my return."

Joyce frowned slightly, "Master William, if you are traveling far, it would be best to take Captain Welf with you for your safety."

"It's not convenient, and I'll be with others, so there's no need to worry about safety."

William waved off the concern to the butler.

It seems he'll be with those mercenary companions again. That young girl does seem quite capable.

Joyce pondered silently, maintaining a neutral expression, then asked:

"Where will you be going, young master? Do you need me to prepare anything else for you?"

"Ask the kitchen to prepare a week's worth of food for ten people, and add some fruits and bread that I'll take with me. That's all I need."

Jason had already agreed to prepare other adventuring gear like tents, so William only needed to arrange for food.

Joyce nodded in agreement and left to prepare the requested items as William had instructed.

William returned to his room, summoned the system, and invested all his experience points into raising his personal level. Exploring an unknown dungeon meant any increase in strength was beneficial. fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com

[Your personal level has increased: 39→40!]

[You receive +2 Strength, +1 Agility, +2 Intelligence, +1 Charisma, +1 Mystique, +1 Endurance]

[Your personal level has increased: 42→43!]

[You receive +2 Strength, +1 Agility, +2 Intelligence, +1 Charisma, +1 Mystique, +1 Endurance]---

Feeling the new strength flow into his body was almost exhilarating, leaving William nearly shouting in delight.

After a few moments, William checked his updated attribute data.

His intelligence and strength had increased by 8 points each, with intelligence reaching 114 points and strength at 91 points.

He also allocated the 20 free attribute points from the gold-level milestone [The Second Step of the Strong] to his intelligence, bringing it to 154 points.

Sigh~

Suppressing the sensation of becoming significantly more intelligent, William nodded in satisfaction with his recent progress.
