Chapter 32: Attempt to break the dungeon!!!

Chapter 32: Attempt to break the dungeon!!!

I headed to the Lalith dungeon as soon as I woke up and entered the mythic stage. I wanted to try the dungeon break. So, I wanted to ask the system how many times I had to clear the dungeon for breaking it. But I felt that I will get the answer by myself if I continued to clear it until it breaks. It can be a form of will training I thought. So, I cleared my urge of asking the query. I selected the mythic stage and entered the dungeon.

The system had realized my intentions and a new mission presented itself.

Ting.

Break the dungeon and become the light of the hope, others will need to defeat the dark forces lurking in the shadows.

Mission objective: Break this dungeon.

Mission rewards: Unknown

…

…

Inside the mythic stage…

There was nothing but darkness once I was inside the dungeon. There was only one way to move forward. I felt that I was inside a tunnel and at its end. I must find its opening in this stage or something like that I thought. I activated and instantly and started heading forward. I didn't want to miss any clues if there were along the way. After walking for 2 minutes, I came across something strange. There were a huge number of Swastika logos placed in a circle with an OM sign at the center. As soon as I was near the sign, it lit up emitting bright light and the whole sign started to float in the air. It reached 6 feet upwards and floated there. And instantly, like a summoning spell, 6 monsters appeared out of nowhere.

[Author: It is like a Sanskrit version of summoning spell or my version. Ha-Ha…]

They looked like a fusion of dogs and wolves but more treacherous and devious. Red hot flame was burning on their head and their body was pitch black like a frozen magma. They were 5 feet tall and each carried a heavy aura of a predator.

*6

HP:25,000/25,000

EP:1,000/1,000

Weakness: Though they have high defense due to a body made up of frozen magma, they are a little slow. Lacks frozen magma on their joints and neck.

…

…

The temperature of the room started to grow hot as soon as they appeared. I had realized it only now as it had been a while since they had appeared. The temperature had been increasing but I was noticing only now.

I activated the skill I had acquired recently. This skill was like Conqueror's Haki of Luffy. It swept forward creating a large space around me and directly attacking the spirit of the enemy. It was able to weaken them or even stun them. There was a huge gap in attributes between the hell hounds. And to strengthen the effect of demoralize, I had even activated the 1st stage of the and my strength attribute increased by 20%.

Ting.

I didn't take it to heart as it wasn't important right now. I was glad to see that 3 of the hell hounds suffered from the stun effect and the other 3 were weakened.

Stun effect: Stunned for 5 seconds

Weakening effect:10% loss in combat standard

I was glad that the weakening effect was strong. Even though only 3 were stunned, I was ecstatic with the result. It was better than I had imagined.

I equipped the and fired the first round at the stunned hell hounds. I targeted the one which was right in front of me only. I focused most of my attacks on his necks as it lacked the defense due to the frozen magma. The stunned hell hounds were able to do nothing while the remaining 3 charged forward.

Roar~~~~

They were pouncing at me all the while roaring loudly. As they grew nearer and nearer, I felt that the temperature was increasing more and more. I knew that I couldn't show my full combat ability due to the abrupt rise in temperature. So, I also backed down to maintain the distance between us. I was able to fire 20 bullets before I was disrupted and 15 of them connected with 3 of them even being a perfect headshot.

-200*12

-800*3

Multiple damages of 200 and 800 appeared above the stunned hell hound's head. After I was disrupted from firing the arrows, I unequipped the . I was glad that it had the self-reloading ability as it would reload itself inside my bag. I equipped at my right and at my left. I was glad that I had maxed out the triple cut.

I stopped backing down and pounced at the 3 hell hounds rushing toward me. The 1st hell hound who was right in front of him bared its long and sharp claws at me. I stroke the at its claw with .

Bang…

-100 damage appeared at its claw as its sharp and pointy claws were broken by the sheer damage of the attack. The attack dealt such damage as it had attacked only its claws (nails).

I interrupted and started another with this time. This cut had a drawback. Even though it had no cooldown, it was a little vulnerable in close combat. It dealt 5 cuts at the same enemy and its duration was 2 seconds. So, I would be absolutely vulnerable during those 2 seconds as I would be attacking only one enemy. I needed to stop the skill from time to time to dodge or attack another enemy. And at that time, the no cooldown shined brightly. So, I was able to turn this disadvantage.

I attacked another hellhound this time. This hit the hell hound right on its chest with a sword cut appearing and blood gushed out from its chest.

-1,500

-1,500

-1,500

Damage appeared above its head. The 3rd hell hound closed in on me by this moment and attempted to bite my neck with its sharp jaws.

I knew what it was doing. So, I interrupted my and squatted down just enough to dodge the blow. I then continued to attack the 2nd hell hound all the while dodging the attacks from the other 2 hell hounds. I was using regularly now that it had no cooldown. And I was even getting the hang of interrupting and continuing. It was starting to feel and become more natural and natural. It was also the strongest arsenal in my collection right now.

-2,400

-2,400

-1,500

…

…

By now, the stunned 3 hell hounds had also become free but they were still under the weakened effect like the other 3 hell hounds in front of me. They roared angrily to let out all of their frustrations and rushed towards me.

The 2nd hell hound which was enduring my attacks was immovable right now. It was continuously getting pummeled right now and had lost more than 50% of its health. I was still surrounded by the 2 hell hounds as they were trying to attack me but not being able to connect. They were able to connect some blows occasionally but they weren't strong enough to stop my combo hits. My combo hits had reached 7 and it was still increasing. By the time, the just freed hell hounds reached me, I had hit 10 connected 10 combo hits successfully.

10 Combo hits reached.

<+20% additional damage.>

I noticed that the 3 hell hounds had closed in enough for me to attack them with the . I used it right away. The nearest 2 hell hounds suffered more damage while the charging 3 hell hounds also received some damage. One hell hound was at my back so, it didn't suffer at all.

-2,400*2

-1,200*3

The nearest 2 hell hounds were blown back because of the . I then moved right nimbly and focused all of my attacks on the hell hound.

-2,400*4

-4,800

I connected all of the 5 cuts of without interrupting. And the hell hound suffered a large amount of damage and lost more than half of its health instantly. The 5 hell hounds had closed in during this duration and one even managed to bite me.

-500

500 damage appeared above my head. I kicked it with another leg and it was blown back again. I then danced around the hell hounds nimbly and focused my all to land my hits on the 1st hell hound. (It was the hell hound that was getting pummeled just a moment ago).

-2,400

-1,500

After a while, its HP decreased to 0 and its lifeless body dropped with a thud on the ground. I then followed the same tactics. I nimbly moved around focusing my attacks on the one with the lowest HP. If I struggled to dodge all of their blows, I would sometimes kick them on their guts and sent them flying back. I had to do this as fighting against 4 was more than easy.

…

…

After 2 minutes…

Finally, the HP of the last hell hound reached zero and I dropped with a thud on the ground.

Ting.

*6

I then collected all the drops and noticed that it had dropped one epic skill, a common sword, and 2 brown cores.

Hide in the darkness and rush towards the enemy with additional speed.

Movement speed increased by 200% during the charge-in.

Attack damage deals 150% damage.

Requires: Assassin's blade

…

…

I didn't learn it. It was an assassin's skill. It was similar to the skill I had. I didn't want to learn similar skills twice. I then stored all the items. I looked at my HP and noticed that I had lost 1,000 HP. My recovery rate was 24 HP every second right now. So, I didn't waste any time healing. I had spent 5 minutes already on the first stage. There were still 2 more stages and I needed to do them as fast as possible for a dungeon break. I moved forward and soon encountered the new enemy. It was only one monster this time.

HP:35,000
