The Voyage of Exchange——A New Life from the Dead Chapter 10: Northria Dungeon
Alter immediately stood up, looked around the environment, and cast the flying spell on herself to maintain mobility. After that, she hurriedly moved away from the pursuit of the mutated villagers. The good news was that she might be able to fly to the previous camp before the power of the mysterious potion was exhausted.
During the process, Alter felt that the effectiveness of the mysterious potion was about to disappear, so she flew towards the explorer camp with all her strength, hoping in her mind that when she woke up again, she would be in a safe environment instead of a place full of monsters.
Adhering to this irrational rationality, she managed to fly about a mile away from the camp. Before she could actually feel at ease, the power of the potion disappeared and her senses began to become abnormal. She also felt that her body was gradually losing strength, as if
His body was out of control, but he still gritted his teeth and tried to maintain his body's balance.
When he was flying close to the camp, Airt finally lost control of his body and gradually fell, falling not far from the camp.
After that, I don’t know how long it took for Alte to wake up again. There was a soft pillow under his head and a white ceiling above his head. The room was filled with the salty but friendly smell of the sea and the gentle sea breeze.
, it seems that everything that happened before is so far away from Elquit. The light comes from the left, and the slight voices are not clear on the right.
"Ah, where am I? Is it finally safe?" Alter opened his eyes, recalling that he had lost control of his body before, and tried to get up from the bed.
The ceiling, walls, and floor of this room are all made of stone tiles painted with white stone powder. Only this bed is located in the center of the room. There is a pot of blooming Celia chrysanthemum on the window sill of the wooden window that is also painted white. It seems to be because
When Erte woke up and got out of bed on her left side, she heard the sound of the door being pushed from behind her right side. She immediately turned around and looked in the direction of the door to see who was coming.
The person who came had blond hair tied into long braids and was dressed in blue and white clothes. That face was Hesjana Harunku from the Gigwen faction. She is rightly known as the Saint of Redemption. "It's faster than I expected.
Much more, congratulations on your recovery of mental health, Miss Elt Magloirewood."
"Thank you very much, Lady Saint, I feel much better." Looking at the person in front of him, Erte felt very at ease. As long as she is here, he will be safe no matter what kind of danger he faces.
The visitor frowned slightly, but it also showed her beauty. "The memory reading carried out by the association did not go smoothly. Now that the ingredients of the medicine that hinder the purification have been removed by me, you'd better prepare a satisfactory report."
"I understand. I will report the encounter and the occurrence to the association. Thank you again for your help." Alter lowered his head.
"It's just a deal. I'll give you a piece of advice. As a high-level explorer, your spirit is too fragile and unstable. You can't withstand this level of mental pollution, and you're not even as good as an intermediate explorer." Hesjana
After Harunku finished speaking, he turned around and left.
Facing the saint's questioning, Erte had no choice but to get out of bed and prepare a report. She just left the room wearing a white hospital gown and barefoot.
Halfway through the walk, Erte, who was thinking, remembered her inappropriate clothing and hurried back to the ward to find her own clothes. She found a set of simple linen clothes in the box under the bed, which did not reflect the charm of women at all.
But there wasn't a single patch on it, it was very new. Even for poorer civilians, it was hard to wear good clothes.
After changing into clothes, Erte took a deep breath to cover up her previous embarrassment. In addition, her equipment was also placed here, but there were only a few pieces.
Erte has no place to live. In the past, of course the place to stay was a hotel, the cheapest kind. After all, the association does not pay. I don’t have a penny in my hand, so now I have no place to live, and I have no assets other than equipment.
…
Erte was very angry when she found that the trophies she had worked so hard to bring were missing. She took a deep breath again and patted her cheeks to make herself look calmer. [I hope these things were taken away by the association, so that at least they would be given to me.
I have a little bit left over.]
With this in mind, Alter packed up his belongings and went to the association headquarters to report on the mission. Outside the door was the church of the Church of the God of Death in Northlia, the city where the Explorers Association headquarters is located. This contemplation corridor is usually
It is prepared for believers to meditate and pray. Alter has only been here once, but it is not close to the sea...
The Explorers Association headquarters is the only one with a separate reporting room. Other branches report directly to the staff in the lobby. Alter walked through the crowded streets back to the association, and then entered the reporting room on the second basement floor.
, it just so happens that no one is reporting right now.
The gray-haired elf clerk, who had met twice before, showed a smile that she hadn't seen for a long time at Erquette, who was completely unfamiliar with her. It was the same smile when she came here before. This girl was very kind to everyone.
"Welcome back, Alter, how's the commission going?"
Every time Erte thinks about the previous situation where he was deprived of the rewards for missions, he doesn't feel happy at all, but he can't show his feelings.
"It didn't go well. Our team encountered villagers who mutated and reborn after death. Everyone except me was slaughtered. We had a chance to bring back a witness, but we were also killed by the villagers on the way back. This
The guys can even use tools and firearms." She recalled the situation when she was shot down by two bullets and reported seriously.
"Sorry..." The clerk showed a sad expression, but she quickly cheered up and took out a pen and paper and began to repeat what Alter said. "Please continue." She showed a bright smile.
"A strange situation occurred. The witness and I both encountered a kind of black mist. This black mist will teleport those who touch it to an abandoned metal factory, where there are also mutated villagers.
This is also the reason why the association has problems reading memory, and that’s what I want to report.” Alter retained some information and told other information.
"Is this all there is? I understand." The clerk put away the report she had written for her. "The president told you to go find him tomorrow, by the way." The clerk remembered something and bent down to take it out from under the counter.
A red woolen scarf. "This is for you, although it's not very well knitted." The elf handed the scarf over with an innocent and shy smile.
"Thank you, cough. Also, does the association provide temporary accommodation? All my money is in that factory. I'm afraid I can't afford to live in a hotel." Erquette took it with an embarrassed look.
scarf.
"Although it's not nice to say this, I think Alter is very powerful. Wouldn't it be nice to go to the first and second floors of the dungeon and defeat a few monsters?" The clerk's expression looked a little confused.
"That's right. I'm sorry for making you see such an embarrassing scene. I'll leave now. Goodbye." Alter put on his scarf and left the lecture room. The weather outside was already very cold, but he has a superhuman physique.
You will automatically ignore this trivial injury, but even so, this scarf still brings a warm feeling.
Alter entered the corridor on the second underground floor of the association headquarters. It was already afternoon. She didn't check the specific time, but it was best to go to the dungeon as early as possible.
As Erte moved towards the location of the dungeon, she recalled over and over again how explorers gained profits in the dungeon. After all, she had never been there before - the previous explanation was that in addition to faction explorers participating in regular cleaning,
The average free explorer makes a living by selling the remnants dropped after the monsters in the dungeon disappear, and the main ones are source energy crystals.
Soon, Alter arrived at the entrance hall of the underground city. At this point, the explorers had all come out of the underground city. She looked at the day outside and it was getting late. In order to get the funds to stay in the hotel as soon as possible, she entered without stopping.
Underground city.
He entered the first floor along the spiral staircase - the monsters on the top floor would not appear near the stairs. As he walked, Erte observed the environment on the road and prepared protective spells and flying spells in advance to facilitate his movement as quickly as possible.
Explore.
A quarter of an hour later, Alter discovered two rock goblins. Although they looked like real goblins except for their gray skin, there was no doubt that the monsters in the dungeon were not actual creatures.
Erte had no armor on her body, so she decided to prioritize reducing the damage she received and cast protective spells for herself. At this time, two monsters rushed over with stone sticks... These monsters could be easily dealt with by lower-level explorers.
It would be really hard for her to accept the injury to her superior researcher if someone was watching.
Because even if you are a back-row support profession, a higher level means that you can avoid attacks of a certain degree. Otherwise, when fighting the lord monster, the aftermath alone will be unbearable. Erte concentrated on channeling the power beyond ordinary people in his body, and then shot out
Trick Fiery Arrow, but the attack was dodged by the rock goblin...
After releasing this move, the two monsters had already caught up, surrounding Alter one after another. Alter had previously observed how high the highest point of the current environment was. If he could fly, he could rely on his mobility anyway.
Drag these two monsters to death.
In the end, two pink crystals fell, and the monster's body turned into black particles and disappeared into the air. This was also the first time Arquitet had achieved anything in this dungeon, which is extremely famous among explorers. She fell.
I came to collect the two pink crystals, thinking that I had enough money for tonight's accommodation, and then flew towards the exit of the dungeon.
Alter returned to the surface, and after being weighed in a nearby shop, he got eighty-seven meers. This little money was enough to find a cheap hotel to stay for one night. "At least I can make it through.
It's time for tonight." She sighed and planned to go to a cheap hotel to rest for the night.
