Looks like muscle relaxant poisons don’t have much effect on dungeon monsters.
Hemorrhaging poison is also ineffective.
A hemorrhaging magic poison, as a poison that discharges magic is called, that forcefully causes magic power to run out, is extremely effective.
I can’t have Ayl and Velsa breathing in the poison while I spray it, so I handed over masks with complete protection.
It’s essentially a barrier made with a magic circle that looks in the air, so none of the spray will leak through, I think.
From start to finish, I tried out the poisons listed in Camilla’s herbology book.
As expected, from seeing it with my own eyes and having the firsthand account, I think these are the results because this is a dungeon.
It’s something to try in reality.
Finally, I dug a little of the dungeon’s ground out, made a man-made pound, and put just a little poison in it.
At a removed place, as I peeped at what was going on, a gray wildbear subspecies came to drink the water, and with one mouthful it collapsed.
At the current stages, it’s my most powerful poison.
It’s a

poison powder made by boiling the stem of a blue-purple flower and evaporating the liquid, so it’s very easy to use.

“I guess it’s impossible to find any more poison from here on without a microscope.”
I said, nodding and agreeing to myself.

“It’s like he’s crazy.”
“Yeah, he’s a terrifying man, that Naoki.”

Ayl and Velsa undid their masks and came closer.

“Well, I tried using all the ones I made before in order, but I found out a lot of things.”
“Found out a lot of things?”

Velsa asked, tilting her head.
Ayl began dismantling the wildbear subspecies.
The corpse didn’t disappear, and the drop items also didn’t appear.
I don’t know what this grey wildbear ate, but it has substance.

“Monsters originating from the dungeon have more magic power than the monsters outside.  And also/, it seems that quite a lot of magic power is needed to maintain the body’s form. However, when they gain substance, like this wildbear, it’s a different story, and the effectiveness of poison is extremely good!”
“This is a grezzly, ne.”
Velsa gave a nod to my speech and also corrected it.
“Heh?”
“This monster isn’t a wildbear, it’s a

a grezzly. It’s a monster that lives in a far off northern country. I don’t know why it’s here, though.”
Seems like this grey wildbear is a different specis called a grezzly.
For us to encounter a monster that lives in the northern country in this jungle.
I guess it’s because this is a dungeon.

“Ue~ the bugs are horrible!”

Ayl, who’s dismantling, swats at the bugs that pyon pyon leap from the grezzly’s fur, crushing them.
I said, “Wait a second,” to Ayl and captured as many of the jumping bugs as I can.
They’re the size of a grain of rice, but they’re dungeon-originated tick monsters.
When I asked Velsa, it turns out “These monsters aren’t named.”
When I conveyed that I want to raise them to make an insecticide,
“Haa? Naoki, you’re weird! Like my teacher.”
Even while Velsa’s shocked, she was reminded of how her teacher, the monster researcher Lisa, raised small monsters.
She said that Lisa carefully studied bugs and small monsters.

Since ticks are living creatures they can’t go in the Item Bag, so I wash the container I used for the pump and put as many in it as I could.

I could.
The other two are completely staring at me like I’m a crazy person, but if I can discover an insecticide that can exterminate ticks, it should sell well.
It can also become prevention measures against infectious diseases.
And furthermore, they’re large-sized so I can personally see their forms and conditions. It’s an unexpected windfall.
Although it didn’t seem so to the other two.

I sealed the container the ticks went in, bent over, and used Clean Up on the grezzly.
Ayl dismantled it, the magic stone, meat, and fur went in the Item Box, the leftover bones were incinerated, and the blood was thrown into the poisonous pond.
Shobusuri were hanging from the ceiling, peering over.
Are they aiming for the blood in the pond?
Now all that’s left is taking in the experience points.

Proceeding further within, there are stairs.
I use the Search skill, and it should have been obvious, but even the Search Skill couldn’t reveal the level below.

When we descended the stairs, there was the feeling of breaking through some kind of thin membrane.
Shining the light at the stone walls, there was a pattern-like magic circle in a roundin a round on the walls, ceiling, and floor.
When I carefully examined it, it wasn’t a poison or transfer magic circle; I understood it to be a sub-s.p.a.ce magic circle like the Item Bag.

“A sub-s.p.a.ce, huh?”
“ “Sub-s.p.a.ce?” “
“It probably has oxygen and gravity?”
“ “???” “
Ignoring the other two’s confusion, I proceed onwards.
When I went past the magic circle, I was able to see the state of the monsters on the lower level with the Search Skill.
If it’s possible for monsters to be here, then I guess it’s okay for humans too.
Below the stairs seems to be quite the bright area.
The light hits the stairs.

In front of the stairs, red as well as yellow trees spread before it like a carpet.
I can’t tell if it’s a perfectly clear sky drawn on the ceiling or if it’s a real sky, but at any rate, a sky-blue radiates.
It’s weird, feeling like there’s just stairs continuing from above. That kind of s.p.a.ce was spread out.
Velsa and Ayl descend the stairs in a daze.
Stepping onto the floor, there’s the rustling noise of the scattered dry leaves.
