Chapter 47
Chapter 47 Strongest Sage, Establishes Camping Ground
We didn"t encounter any new type of monsters on floor 10 .
Still, compared to floor 7 and such where only a few Killer Dogs were mixed in with sh.e.l.lfish type monsters, floor 10 was all Killer Dogs, so the degree of difficulty was quite a bit higher .
"Ruli, I"m counting on you to the right!"
"Yes!"
Alma shot through two Killer Dogs out of a group of five from the left .
Even though the arrow didn"t kill the monsters, they still got damaged enough they couldn"t walk .
Putting 【Guided Enchant】 on two arrows at once huh, she"s gotten quite used to it . She still can"t do it on three arrows even once though .
And Ruli stopped the remaining three by firing flame magic in front of them .
Even if she has a crest with a low growth rate, it looks like her magic strength and control have improved thanks to the pendant that helps gaining exp and a long series of battles .
The flame didn"t give much damage, but it succeeded robbing the dogs off their mobility .
Alma shot through another two dogs during that opportunity and Ruli stopped the last one .
Alma shot out an arrow with 【Simple Mana Enchant】 to finish off the last one altogether with the other four, subjugation complete .
Un . Safe .
"You two should be fine fighting on floor 10 now as long as you don"t step into a Monster House . "
"Monster House . . . . It really is hard to tell them apart with 【Pa.s.sive Detection】 . . . . "
"I do feel something that seems like that, but I can"t really grasp it well . . . Just when I thought it was a Monster House room, it turned out to be a normal one . . . "
"Well, a Monster House"s reaction is harder to see through compared to monster"s . Once you"re accustomed with 【Pa.s.sive Detection】, you"ll be able to detect them without thinking . "
It"s hard to give an advice for this kind of thing since it"s quite a "feel" thing .
Even among magicians that excelled in 【Pa.s.sive Detection】, there were many opinions as to how to grasp mana reactions .
" . . . Now then . This place should be good enough . "
I stopped at a room that was just the right size .
"This place . . . You mean for the camping practice?"
"Yeah . You absolutely need to learn Camping if you want to dive deep into a dungeon . "
You can"t take a break if you don"t pitch a camp .
For sleeping and in some cases, even dining .
If you"re diving for a long period of time, not being able to camp can be fatal .
"I-I understand! I"ll do my best . "
"Me too, will do my best!"
"I"m glad that you"re motivated, but Alma, please keep watch on the surroundings . Since unfortunately, Camp is an augment magic . Any other crests besides Glory Crest can"t use it . "
I could pitch a camp alone since I did it countless times in my past life and had the magic control for it, but as the mana density thickens the deeper you go into a dungeon, doing it alone also gets harder .
The current me with Disqualified Crest can probably only go up to floor 20 at best .
"Gimme back my determination!"
"Looking out on the surroundings is an important duty too, you know . You can"t use other magic while pitching a Camp, so you"re basically defenseless . "
" . . . Then I"m also practically doing it too! Got it! I"ll be on the lookout . "
Alma set up an arrow on her bow and began to watch the surroundings .
Actually, she"d better off concentrating on 【Pa.s.sive Detection】 than doing it by eyes . . . . Well, I guess I"ll give her a pa.s.sing grade since she"s technically keeping watch .
"Now then . Shall I explain about Camp . "
