Chapter 142: If You Guys Want Some Excitement, Let's Explore The Upper Floor
Not far from the 20th-floor's Dungeon crystal vicinity, I and the twin standing and waiting silently, while having a light conversation.
If you guys wondering why I didn't proceed directly to teleport to the boss room, get the thing done with the boss and proceed to the 21st floor, it's because I can't do it willfully like that.
There's some restriction and regulation here on the 20th floor if we want to challenge the Boss.
Since the boss guarding this floor isn't that strong, a lot of adventurer party has a great interest to challenge it.
Because of this, the Adventurer Guild and the City Lord decided to create a regulation about challenging the boss on the 20th floor.
Every party who wants to challenge the boss again needed to register, then lined up to challenge the boss room.
Considering the boss room need to reset after 3 hours after it got defeated, this regulation became a huge help to the adventurer party that wants to rechallenge the boss room, as they didn't need to fight each other to seize the right to challenge the boss room earlier than the others.
Of course, since it will affect the new challenger of the dungeon to conquer the boss room, some exception was made for the new challenger or the newbie adventurer who just exploring this dungeon.
We, as the new challenger get the privilege to ignore the lineup of the registered Challenger, and could pass directly to enter the boss room.
Huh? are you guys wondering what am I waiting for? Even though I already get this privilege, why did I stay idly in here with the ladies?
Like I said before, the Boss room needs to reset after being conquered, and we still waiting for it to be reset right now.
Anyway, since there's still spare time, maybe I should briefly explain to you guys what did we do after exchanging our Dungeon Crystal earlier.
At that time, I and the twin decided to roam around this safe zone, hoping to hear some news about Chali and the other.
Unfortunately, after spending some time asking and overhearing the adventurer here, they didn't know anything about Chali whereabout or the news about them arriving at this place.
Concluding this, it seems we arrived in this safe zone earlier than them.
Anyway, since we already promise to explore this dungeon separately until we reached the 80th floor, it doesn't matter even if we met them here or not.
Since we will still separate in our own way in the end.
It's just me who was curious about their condition.
As for their safety, I think like us, they will not face any problem at all on this lower floor, thus, I'm not that worried about their condition.
Moreover, each of their party has someone with healing skills that I bestow to some of the Silver Wolf members.
..
[Sir Alex, the Boss room already finish resetting, please take your party to enter the magic circle]
All of a sudden, a person wearing city guard armor came to us and informed us.
[Ah, Thanks for informing us~]
[No problem, we just do our duty here.
Then, please]
The city guard gestured us to go politely with his hand.
Maybe, because a lot of people waiting for their turn to challenge the boss, they need us to not wasting time here and asked us to hurriedly enter.
Since I didn't want to make their job difficult, I glanced at Anna and Anni, signified them to follow me to head toward the magic circle.
With Anna and Anni followed behind, I taking my step inside the area of the bluish magic circle.
Just as I taking a step inside it, a bunch of notifications suddenly appeared inside my head.
[Scanning.]
[New Challenger detected]
[As a new challenger, you must challenge the 1st level guardian of the dungeon before advancing to the 21st floor]
[Do you want to proceed to challenge the 1st level guardian? Yes/no]
I turned my head to Anna and Anni beside me.
Seeing they're nodding their head, without hesitation, I decided to proceed.
'Yes!'
With my surrounding that suddenly warped and became blurry, a sense of weightlessness that usually happened when I was using teleportation skills, suddenly hit my body.
After a while, the scenery in my view gradually stabilized as it changed into a huge stone room.
When I moving my gaze in the middle of the stone room, a circle arena-like thing, lighten up by a low bluish firewall encircling it, greeted my eyes.
With the circle arena dimly lit, a Satyr monster, at the height of an ordinary human, silently standing there.
Wearing an assassin-like cloak on the top part of its human body, his face was covered with the hood, making us can't see his face clearly.
Even though his face is covered and we can't see his expression or face, but for some reason, I feel like this Satyr monster is observing us silently.
From what was written on Chali's note, it seems the boss only started to attack if we step inside the circle arena.
Apparently, that's the mechanism in this boss room.
Once we accepted the challenge, the red crystal will teleport us outside the circle arena, giving the challenger a chance to making some preparation.
Maybe you guys wonder, if the boss just standing there without attacking, then, isn't attacking it from outside the circle and bombarding it with a long-distance spell will prove the boss fight became easy? what's the point of making an easy to defeat Boss as a challenge then?
Maybe if Chali didn't inform me about the impossibility of that idea, I will do it the same as you guys, besieging it from the distance and kill it without a sweat. (Ma... since it's just a lower floor Boss, I can kill it without a sweat even if there's no this restriction though)
But it seems, the Dungeon already thinking of this possibility.
Did you guys wonder what is the blue fire that encircles the arena used for?
Yes, it seems that fire-like things have the function to nullified any attack from the outside.
Once the challenger passed the fire and entered the circle arena, it will disappear and giving the boss ability to start attacking us.
From what was written in Chali's note, at that time, even if we escape outside the circle arena, the Boss will still be chasing and attacking us in madness, as the restricting force that restricted its movement before, disappear.
Hmm It seems you guys doubt Chali's information.
Anyway, since there's no hurt for trying it, maybe I should try it first for myself.
Trinity Invoker!
As I shouted this thought in my mind, a three elemental ball suddenly appeared from the small tattoo(Sas**ke curse symbol from O**rochim**ru) on the back of my neck, before encircling on my back.
[Trinity Orbs] element reshuffling!
GTI! Ice, Thunder, Fire!
.....
...
[Exploossssssiooooon!!!]
As the magic power inside my body is recklessly drained by a chunk, I concentrate my self to control my explosion spell, hitting at the place of the boss monster inside the circle arena!
But, just as my magic power trying to gather inside the circle arena to create a big explosion, the fire that encircled the arena suddenly shined brightly.
At the same time, my magic power which trying to gather and group up mysteriously disintegrated into magic particles and disappears completely.
See? Even my powerful explosion spell couldn't pass that mysterious fire.
There are already people who trying the same thing as me before but to no avail.
Even though I consider myself powerful, never once in my thought that I underestimated this Unconquered Ancient Dungeon.
I'm sure there's a lot of people in this world that have a stronger strength than me, already trying to conquer it.
The fact that this Dungeon is still not conquered yet, despite a lot of Powerful Being already try it, speak that in this Ancient Dungeon lying a deep secret unknown by a lot of powerhouse of this world.
After satiated my curiosity, I decided to observe the Boss once again.
'Hmm Still, why it was Satyr monster? from the 1st floor to the 20th floor, I met a lot of them already...
Anyway, Let's appraise its status first'

================================================
Looking at the useful skill that the Boss possessed, I unhesitatingly copied all of them.
'Thanks for the skill~ the Parrarel Thought one is very delicious~'
[Anna, Anni, let's kill this guy and proceed to the next floor~]
Hearing my nonchalant remark, Anna and Anni just wryly smile and nodded their head in affirmation.
Together with them, I walked and passed through the mysterious bluish fire.
Like what already written in Chali's note, the fire in the Boss room deal no damage to us.
It seems this thing function is just to prevent anyone to defeat the boss monster with a foul method.
Once we stepped inside the circle arena, the fire mysteriously disappear, and the boss monster tilts its body, seemingly being freed from the invisible restrictive force that binds it.
Graaaaaaaak!! *the stone rough movement
Just as the Boss monster trying to move, I hurriedly using my elemental manipulation skill, controlling the stone under him to envelope its body, restricted him once again.
[Anna, Anni, take your hit, and finish this unworthy battle quickly]
With my words, Anna shot her arrows toward the Boss monster's head and Anni throw her dagger to the same spot of Anni's arrows flying to, the head of the Boss.
Stab!! Stab!
[Craaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!]
[Shut up!]
As the boss started screaming hoarsely from the arrow and dagger that piercing its head, I began my attack by throwing a wind blade toward its neck, beheading it directly after my attack depleting all its HP at once.
Thud*
Its head falling to the ground with a thud.
Grararak*
With my thought, the stone that restricted the Boss monster, returned to the floor at once, leaving the Boss cold body to fall on the ground, strengthless.
Before long, its body started to disappear and leaving behind some loots for us to take.
Looking at this scene, Anna and Anni speechlessly looking at me, seemingly want to complain about something.
[What? If you guys want some excitement, let's explore the upper floor, don't waste our precious time with the small fry here...
am I right?]
With the shrugging Anna and Anni, we plainly ended the boss fight, leaving a tasteless victory for conquering the 1st Guardian of this Dungeon...
