Six floors below the Nihonium Dungeon.
　A poisonous fog filled the cavern that looked like a limestone cave.

　I'm a stone, so the poison doesn't work on me, but I wonder how powerful this poison is.

　...... Let's give it a try.

　I placed one normal bullet on the ground and kept my distance.
　Monsters won't haggle in another floor of the same dungeon, but they will in a different dungeon.
　We found that out when Emily came to Silicon's rescue on the day of the magic storm.

　I hagglomerated a mere regular bullet that wasn't made of nihonium.
　I waited for a while, and then the bullets hatched into slime.
　The slime that lives on the ground floor in Tellurideanjon.

　As soon as it hatched - it melted.
　It was hit by a poisonous fog and turned into mush and melted.

It's poisonous, this is dangerous!

　Come to think of it, I was pretty bad too.
　Even though I had SS HP and S strength, I was still in trouble, and it was understandable, even though it was heartbreaking, that the slime level was an almost instant death.

　I knew I should attack this floor, the sixth floor of Nifonium, with my body turned to stone.

　If this is the case, what we can do is limited.
　We'll need guns and repetition.

Repetition!

　I hit the Poison Zombie that showed up with a circular spell. The magic defeated the zombie with no problem and dropped a seed of intelligence.

　Next, I set up my gun.
　From normal bullets to flame bullets, frozen bullets, infinite lightning bullets, and tracking bullets.
　I loaded a round of attack bullets and proceeded through the dungeon.

　Every time a poison zombie appears, I shoot it with the gun, the regular bullets are headshots, and the special bullets hit the body at random.
　After trying everything, I found out that Poison Zombie is just a zombie that produces poison.
　They produce a poisonous fog, but their durability and speed are almost the same as the zombies on the second floor.
　You can take them down with the same shot, and they attack with the same speed.

　You can't test their attack power, they're rocks.
　We couldn't just shove a stone at them and let them attack. That poison was too scary.

　Well, we got a pretty good idea. I found out a lot of details about the monsters on the sixth floor of Nifongnium.

　I slowly circled the area, alternating between repetition and regular bullet headshots, hunting for seeds and raising my intelligence from F to E.
　I finished my routine and returned to the ground.

''Hmm, poison can't come upstairs either?''

　The moment they got to the fifth basement floor, the fog had completely cleared.
　If you look closely, as if there was a transparent lid at the border of the floors, the poisonous fog could not come up to the upper floors. Probably not even on the lower floors.
　It's the same as the monster's characteristics around here, this poison fog probably can't exist on another floor of Nifonium, just like the Poison Zombie.

　With that in mind, I went outside, and checked my status on the front now board as well.

　My intelligence is up properly and this is the end of my routine.
　I left the dungeon and headed to my usual (、、、、) place.

　An open, unpopular place, a place I use over and over again to hatch hagrems.

　I opened the pouch there and dropped one of the intelligence seeds on the ground.
　What kind of special bullets would the hagremonos and poison zombies that hatch from the intelligence seeds drop?
　I decided to find out.

　After waiting for a while, the Poison Zombie hatched from the seed.

'Lyota, there you are.
Alice.

　I turn around and see my companion, Alice, coming.
　She approached with her usual three monsters on her shoulders and her usual friendly expression on her face.

'What's wrong?'
'I just wanted to talk to Lyota about something. I wasn't in the dungeon, so I thought this might be the place.
Okay. What's a consultation?
Yeah, actually, I mean... oh.
Huh?
Ryota, that.

　Alice paled and pointed behind me.
　I turned around, and there was a Poison Zombie. It was a newly hatched poison zombie that had just hatched.
　It wasn't just a zombie, the fog that that thing was releasing from its body was spreading!

'd*mn!　Repetition!

　Quickly using magic, the Poison Zombie was defeated in an instant.
　He was defeated, but the poisonous fog already emanating from his body did not disappear.

　The fog spread on the wind - towards the city of Ciclo.

''What is that?''
'It's a poisonous fog, it's bad enough to inhale, and it will melt your skin just by touching it.
That's a bad idea!
'Ugh!　Repetition!

　I used my magic again. But it didn't work.
　The poisonous fog is not a monster, and once defeated, even if the monster is a dungeon master, the Repetition to kill it instantly had no effect at all.

''Oh no, it's spread further!
Huh.

　Draw a gun, see the bullets.
　I see a bullet that's about to work.

"Fireball!

　I loaded one of the special bullets, a fireball, and fired.
　However, the bullet penetrated the fog and no flames were created and disappeared far into the air.

'Lyota!　The tree has melted!
I know!　Another bullet that might work: ...... that might work: ...... annihilation bullet!

　He pulled out all of the reinforced bullets and loaded each of the two pistols with a flame round and a frozen round.
　Then fired in rapid succession, firing a series of bullets toward the outside of the spreading poisonous fog.

　The flame and freezer bullets hit and fused together in the middle of the shot and became an annihilation bullet.
　A small black hole that seemed to engulf the entire space, the annihilation bullets also engulfed the poisonous fog.

'Yes!　That would work, Lyota!
'Oh!　Now we're good to go!

　He also loaded the flaming and freezing bullets and fired them in rapid succession, causing the poisonous fog to be swallowed up by the annihilation bullets from one end to the other.

　Because too much time had passed and it had spread too much, it took four sets of annihilation bullets, a total of 24 annihilation bullets, to eliminate the entire poisonous fog.

''Fufu ...... that was bad. ...... Soberly, that might have been the worst thing that happened to me when I got here.

　I shuddered at the thought of it spreading like that to the city of Cyclo.

'I'm sorry Lyota, it was my fault.
No, it wasn't Alice's fault.

　I head over to where the Poison Zombie was and pick up the dropped bullet.

'It's a trait of this Poison Zombie, turning this thing into a haggler in the open is dangerous to begin with.
Yes. ......
And...

　Now that was Alice, I mean it was a companion, so it wasn't a problem, but it wouldn't be so good if other people inherently showed that hagreymen could drop.
　The power of the drop s, it's a secret among your friends.
　It's wrong to do it in such an open area in the first place.

　I've thought about it a bit before, but getting the pouch has put me off.

'I'd like a place where no one can get in the way for haggling.

　Land, or a big building.
　I still didn't know which was better, but I knew I was going to need something like that.
