There was a purple colored Dimensional Proof placed on top of an altar behind the Throne. A green Return Stone formed besides it.
***
They had a long body, and wide ears. They possessed blue skin, and they were a bipedal race.
Moreover, they wore animal leather that barely covered their nether regions. Seven of the Ratick race entered the Dungeon through the Necia"s Pillar.
“It"s a corpse puppet. Just crush its skull.”
Group leader Relick was an exceptional warrior from the Ratick race.
He had joined the battlefields once he was able to walk on his own two feet. He was a very experienced warrior. He knew exactly how to take down the Skeletons.
His underlings were all experienced warriors of the Ratick race.
Necia"s Pillar was shaped like a round cave, so it took only 30 minutes to clear out the Dungeon.
Zzzzahhhng.
Relick mumbled as he saw the newly formed red portal.
“It"s a Celestial Dungeon. Let"s thoroughly prepare ourselves before we head in.”
The seven from the Ratick race was fully ready when they pa.s.sed through the red portal. After a brief bout of dizziness, they appeared in a wasteland. There were no monsters in the surrounding.
“Be on guard against your surrounding.”
It was hard to predict what would pop out in a Celestial Dungeon. Moreover, this Dungeon had Reset, so they were short on info. If they were able to clear it, this place would become a precious resource needed for the tribe"s survival.
The already devastated Planet Jaku had no other energy source that was as valuable as the Bloodstones.
“It"s an Armored Rhinoceros.”
Relick saw a herd of large Rhinoceroses in the distance. He signaled the warriors of the Ratick tribe. This particular beast also appeared on Planet Jaku.
The warriors of the Relick tribe was heading towards the Armored Rhinoceroses, when they stopped.
Ggee-ahhhhk!
Accompanying the bone-chilling sound, Wyverns appeared from the sky. They were the terror of the sky.
“It"s a dragon!”
They quickly searched for shelter. This was a wasteland, but there still some trees and boulders present. They hid behind these obstacles.
“Raksha!”
When Relick let out a shout, Sorceress Raksha was already done with her preparation. She plucked her fingers in the air as if she was playing an instrument. A spear of lightning appeared, and it struck one of the Wyverns.
Pah-ji-jeek!
Ggee-ahhhhk.
The lighting exploded after striking the Wyvern. The Wyvern"s eyes flipped over, and it fell out of the sky. However, there were still 8 of them left. The flock of Wyvern would surely attack her, while she readied her next spell.
“Uh? It"s a rider. Get ready to counter him!”
There was a saddle strapped onto a Wyvern, and a person was on top of it. Wild dragons were dangerous, but it was much more dangerous when a rider controlled them.
If the rider was a magician, there was nothing more frustrating than being hit by magic from above.
However, the person riding the Wyvern fell from the sky.
Koohng!
A clouds of dust went up as the ground reverberated. The person, who fell from the sky, was the owner of the Domain, Kahng-woojin.
“So you guys are from Planet Jaku.”
Kahng-woojin had searched his Store, and he had purchased Planet Jaku"s Language Pills. He had eaten 7 consecutive pills, and the language of the adventurers from the Ratick tribe was included.
“Welcome to Alandal.”
After eating the strange pills in mid-air, the being started speaking flawlessly in the language of the Ratick tribe. Relick stepped out from behind boulder.
“What"s your ident.i.ty? Human.”
It wasn"t as if he didn"t have his suspicions. The Celestial Dungeons were owned by humans, trolls, ogres, etc. The race and species varied wildly.
“I"m the boss here.”
Woojin unfurled both his arms, and he pointed towards the ground.
Relick took advantage of this opportunity as his opponent made a leisurely gesture with his hands. If he could kill the boss, the Dungeon would be cleared. By nature, when the connection between the Dungeon and its owner was severed, the Dungeon turned into a Bloodstone mine.
“I have a lot of things I want to know about the Planet Jaku.”
At Woojin"s word, Relick gripped his sword. It was akin to a kukri. The blade was curved like a crescent moon.
“I guess you aren"t willing to talk to me without making any fuss.”
Woojin smirked.
“When did I say I would talk to you?”
“……!”
Hwee-ri-reek!
Black smoke coalesced around woojin, and the Death Knights were summoned all at the same time.
“He"s a Summoner!”
These summoned beings were letting out a thick evil energy.
Each of these Undead monsters were giving off an aura of a Great Warrior. The appearance of the Death Knights shook the warriors of the Ratick tribe. There only 7 of them. This Dungeon"s level of difficulty was too high for them to clear it.
There were over 50 Death Knights.
“Retreat!”
Relick quickly came to a decision, and the beings from the Ratick tribe quickly ran away. They had to widen the distance, and use the Return Crystal.
“Just bring me one of them at any cost.”
[It"s a hunt!]
The Death Knights quickly summoned their Phantom Steeds at Woojin"s order.
[You want to make a bet with me, Kiba?]
Ramson spoke with force. Kiba, who was on his Phantom Wolf, let out a growl.
[Childish.]
The beings from the Ratick tribe quickly ran away, but they were surrounded by the Death Knights soon. Relick quickly swung the curved weapon with both his hands, but it wasn"t enough. The Death Knights pressed them as if they were hunting deers.
‘This can"t be.’
Relick was a Great Warrior from the Relick tribe, and he had spent his whole life on the battlefield. He had cleared countless number of Dungeons, but this was the first time he experienced something like this.
This was insane.
Occupied Dungeons existed on Planet Jaku. The owners occasionally appeared on the planet, and their combat power was very strong. However, it wasn"t at a level where they couldn"t face off against these owners.
However, this was... They couldn"t even be considered opponents.
Poo-oohk!
“…rati"s Soul….”
He grabbed the spear piercing his heart, and he yelled out his last spell. It was a secret spell that allowed him to gather his entire life energy, and it allowed the user to self-detonate.
Sskuhk!
Al a.s.sad"s sword quickly separated Relick"s head from his body.
Woojin put Relick"s soul into a Seal Stone, and he laughed as he looked at Al a.s.sad.
“Get ready to greet the new recruit.”
Al a.s.sad shuddered when he thought about the severe hazing he endured. Pain had seeped into his bones. Of course, the only thing he had left were bones....
“Uh? Why is there only 6 of them?”
Woojin counted the corpses, and he looked around his surrounding. A portal opened at the location where a Wyvern had landed.
Woojin frowned when he saw this.
“Chet. One of them was hiding.”
Ratick tribe"s Raksha had hidden her body with a spell, and she disappeared across the Return Portal.
He lost one of them, but it wasn"t a big loss.
He had earned an ingredient for a Death Knight, and he would be a great guide to the Planet Jaku.
