150. Restricted Dungeon Sulfa




Mr. Lyota, we're in trouble!

 In the morning, I woke up and was leaving my room to head to the bathroom when I was stopped by a panicked Elsa, who seemed to be in a hurry.
 I stop and turn around, Elsa is running towards me.

What's the matter? What happened?
There's another dungeon on the horizon!
Is that so?

 I'm surprised, my sleepy blur is blown away at once.

"It's for Cyclo?

 I remembered Seren and asked him about it first.

'Yes! This will be the seventh cyclonic dungeon.
Then we won't be competing with any other city.
It must have been difficult for you with Seren.
That's how you met Celeste, isn't it?

 Seren Dungeon, a dungeon that was born around the middle of the two Ciclo and Hetero.
 The fact that it was born right in the middle of the city, geographically, caused a battle between Ciclo and Hetero.
 In this world, primary dungeons are an important source of taxation, and both Cyclo and Hetero fought for ownership of the dungeon.

 In the meantime, I was asked by Clint, the head of the Cyclo Dungeon Association, to conquer the dungeon and bring Seren under Cyclo's jurisdiction.
 It seems like a long time ago.

'If it's going to be a Cyclo dungeon, then there's no conflict.
Yes. So President Clint called.
There you are.
'Yes! I'm requesting the Lyota family to investigate the dungeon. They say the success fee is 10 million piro.
Okay.

 I was a bystander when I came to this world to investigate the dungeon.
 That request came over here first, and I was a little happy.

     ☆

 On the outskirts of Cyclo, in front of the new dungeon.
 The entire Lyota family came to the place, not even the Now Board was attached yet.
 Me, Emily, Celeste, Alice, and Eve.

 We are the five members of the adventurer's team that will be hiding in the dungeon.

Let's see what kind of dungeon we're in.
His name is Sulphur. That's all we know at the moment.
"Sulphur ...... burning stone?
Do you know, Lyota?

 Celeste, the family's number one wise guy, is surprised.

'I've only heard the name before,'

 Sarfa, number 16 in terms of numbers.
 If it was a dungeon with a strong smell, I'd have a hard time going around, I thought to myself, "I don't know what else to do.

"Don't you know anything else?
I don't know. We're the first investigative unit.
Doesn't Eve know anything about it?
The Silence is the Hare.

 You sound like gold.

"I knew you didn't know anything about it except the name.
'What are you going to do, Lyota? It's a dangerous thing to not know anything.
Yes. ......

 I thought about it for a moment.

'Let's use the Absolute Rock stone, so if something happens with it, it shouldn't get you hit anyway.
Well, that's better.
'On top of that, I'll go in first. Then Emily, Alice and Celeste. Finally, Eve.
Why the rabbit last?
"Because at the beginning and at the end, the ones with the strength and experience will be better able to handle it when the chips are down.
All right. Three days of carrots.
Okay.

 After deciding how to enter and the order in which to enter, each of the friends began to check their equipment.
 Everyone checked their weapons and tools, including the Absolute Rock stone for absolute defense that they all had, and on top of that, Emily's hammer and Celeste's bicorn horn.

 Making sure it was all done.

'Let's go,'

 I said and everyone nodded.

 I went into invincible mode with the Absolute Rock stone and then went inside.

 The inside of the dungeon was huge, a coliseum of sorts.
 A dome, if you will. Anyway, the place is large and useless.
 No stairs leading down, just the ground floor?

 As I was looking around, a monster quickly appeared.

 A humanoid monster, about the same size as an adult male.
 Its body was green with a single large eyeball on its face.

"Cyclops, huh?

 There was a name that matched in my knowledge.
 I wasn't sure if it was right, because in my image it should be more of a giant.

 Oh well, let's take it down anyway.
 I tried to draw my gun--it wasn't there!

 They didn't have a gun, the mainstay of combat!

 Where is he? You dropped it!

 While I was thinking about this, Cyclops attacked and swung his club at me, which was very strong.

 Shucks! I raised my hand to receive it. I grabbed the club as it was swung down.
 The power is as good as the size, so it was received without difficulty, and the club is a blunt instrument, so the palm of the hand tingles - tingling!

 If you look closely, I wasn't invincible, I didn't have the stone of absolute rock.
 Not only that, there was nothing else.
 There were no weapons or items of any kind, nothing but the clothes I was wearing.

'Is this a ...... no-carry-in dungeon?'

 That's what I found in the knowledge.
 A dungeon that doesn't allow you to bring in any of the items you have. A dungeon that makes it difficult to attack.

 ...... That's not the only thing that seems to be going on.
 Still no one has come in.
 I've been inside for over a minute and none of my friends have shown up.
 Is it solo only on top of not being able to bring in?

 It reminded me of Aurum, that place in the rogue dungeon is pretty troublesome too.

'Goooooooooh!

 I lost my concentration in my thoughts and Cyclops forcefully pulled the club out of my hand and swung it down further.
 I dodged it and punched it as hard as I could.

 The body blow tore the cyclops out of his gut.

 Apparently, the ...... force SS is still intact.
 Cyclops is gone and a bottle of corn drops in its place.
 A bottle of corn, about 100 piro.

 And then another one appeared.
 A door.
 A door appears where there was none, and I can see outside through the door.
 It looks familiar, outside this salfa.

'Flashing ...... out in time? So that's it.

 I thought about it for a minute and decided to go outside for a moment.

 I was outside with the corn, outside the dungeon.

'Mr. Yoda!'
Are you okay?

 Emily and Celeste were there.

'Are you two okay?'
'Yes, sir! I was in a huge panic.
If you were in a hurry, that means you couldn't bring in the hammer.

 Emily has a hammer in her hand, and I have a gun and bullets at my waist too.
 I just can't bring it in, but it seems to be back in place when I get back.

'Yes, sir! I grabbed my opponent's club and somehow managed to bring it back down.
'You can't bring your tools into the house ...... and Celeste's bicorn horn then?'
Yes, and one other thing.
What?
'I couldn't use the inferno. We didn't have enough magic.
What?
I could use the fireball.
...... reset the levels too?

 It hit me right away.
 When it came to not being able to bring it in, what often came with the set was a level reset.
 No matter how high your level is, once you enter a dungeon, you have to start over from scratch.

 I can't be sure, but it's probably true.

 In the meantime, this time, Eve came out.
 She has a graze on her cheek and shoulder.

'Are you okay, Eve?'
"Humiliation.
What?
'The rabbit has gone to a low level,'
Oh, I was right.

 I haven't heard the principle, but Eve seems to be able to tell how level they are with a quick glance.

'The way you put it, you'll be a level 1 when you get in, is that correct?
That's right. The rabbit will never come in here again.
All right. I'll take care of it.

 It's enough to know for sure that I'm starting over at level 1.
 And with that, I got one more piece of information.
 My ability hadn't been lowered.
 It's a dungeon where you're reverted to level 1, and since I'm level 1, my powers weren't lowered.
 In a way, it's my kind of dungeon.

"The drops are crappy, but you can only make 100 pirouettes in one piece.
The second one increased.

 Eve says with a sullen look on her face.

'More? Or rather, the second time.
The first one, a little stronger, showed up, and when I took it down, I got twice as many drops as the first one.
Heh. ......
The third one was even more double. I didn't like it, so I left it there.
'Um, ......, you mean ......?'

 As I tilted my head, Eve threw the leeks out on the ground with a thud.
 A different drop than mine, a leek.
 That amount is .......

'About seven hundred piro.'
That's about it.
'Yes. There may be a margin of error, though.

 Emily and Celeste both agreed with me.
 They've all dived into dungeons quite a bit, so they've been able to make some calculations about the drops.

I'm corn, for 100 pyrro.
I'm a cucumber, and I'm about a hundred piro.
This one is shiitake mushrooms ...... and it's for 100 piro.
So that means the strength and drops increase by a factor of two.
I guess you could say that.
Okay, I'll go under.
Are you sure you're okay?
'I've been a level one from the start, so my abilities didn't diminish.
I see!
That's what I'm talking about, Ryota-san. Your dungeon is perfect.
'You're so cocky for a low level.'

 I was about to enter the dungeon once more after everyone had seen me off, when I heard

I'm back. That's great, that's great, Ree-chin, that's great.

 Alice came back with a huge pile of tomatoes, extremely excited.

'Alice?' What's that amount?
That's great, Li-ching, you've taken it all by yourself.
Did you get the full story?
'Yes! Lyota is so strong even without a weapon!

 Alice was extremely excited about it.
 'Ryouchin, Alice's summoning magic, a magic that summons a copy of me with the exact same strength.

''You don't have to go through it again.
That's Yoda for you, sir.

 It validates in a surprising way.
 I would be able to complete the dungeon and.

"The drop is ....... How many times did the monster drop?
Nine times.

 Alice answered clearly.
 A pile of tomatoes, and nine drops.

 I was able to do the math right away with the laws I've been following and those two pieces of information.
 Starting at 100 and doubling nine times, the total

About 50,000 for one session, you mean?

 I'll need further testing to see if it's good or not good for the ratio.
