Terrarian in the Dungeon

Chapter 67



I think Ryuu and Anya were honestly disgusted...

Our method of slaughtering monsters although not too profitable due to the monster stones getting destroyed due to the explosives that cleared the corpses from the bunker. But no other method was as great in the pure slaughter of the monsters.

Finally, after half an hour of literally thousands of monsters dying in piles due to the battle potion and the water candle I had placed, the dungeon seemingly tiring gave up on sending an endless tide of monsters at the bunker.

"Jake put away the stuff, the dungeon has given up," Bell said gleefully as she stretched out her sore arms that had been holding her space guns and endlessly shooting while Ryuu and Anya were laid out due to a whole another issue.

The two girls in their little competition got close to mind down before Ryuu's cooler head called off the competition after me and Bell kept giving her weird looks. "So why even do such an asinine thing as call a monster tide upon us?" Ryuu asked as I broke a doorway out of the bunker.

At Ryuu's question, I shrugged as I spoke. "With my various crafting being so valuable to say nothing of the massive amounts of money I get for running boss events, our Familia's aren't really hurting for money in the slightest... I am just here for materials and a lot of them." I said as I literally broke the ground to get the dungeon's version of mud blocks so I could eventually create a Chlorophyte much later on.

"Bell, you keep an eye out for monsters while I strip this floor clean!" I said gleefully as I took out an axe made out of Shadowscales from my inventory and Ryuu's eyes twitched seeing me just tearing down every single tree in sight within the jungle floor to say nothing of the herbs and magical reagents I picked up for potions.

Wherever I went I left a wasteland as every tree was chopped down, every herb was plucked, and especially every single monster that came within view was killed and had its materials harvested like a firebird's flame-attributed feathers for example.

"Jake there's some adventurer's over there, what should we do?" Bell asked pointing ahead of us and I grinned as I kept swinging my axe cutting down every tree and leaving a bald patch of earth behind us.

"Full send Bell! We deal with anything that gets in the way!" I encouraged her and her eyes lit up as she nodded strongly.

Fuck those other adventurer's we came to strip the dungeon bare and if they wanted to complain they could go to the Guild. With Evilus, on the prowl, I wasn't going to play nice anymore. I was literally going to ruin this dungeon floor as I got everything, I needed to make all the jungle items I needed.

As I pushed forward, I could hear a loud snarling and crashing noises coming from ahead, so Bell came back to my side with a nasty look as she shook her head. "There's a lot of Lizardmen ahead harassing the party." Hearing her words I looked to Ryuu.

Ryuu knowing what my glance meant, nodded as she spoke. "We have the strength to save them so let's move faster." And with that said the elf took off at a quick pace into the thick jungle ahead of us.

Myself and the other two girls followed up behind Ryuu as we tore through the last hundred or so meter thick jungle before we broke through into a clearing and in the middle of it was a party of some five people fighting a squad of a couple dozen lizardmen.

Lizardmen were three-meter-tall bipedal lizards armed with impossibly hard land-form weapons typically being large swords and a shield, but they could also have some spears as well rarely.

In the middle of the party of the Lizardmen was an Aberrant lizardman that had yellow-golden scales that contrasted with his basic kin's brown skin and his enhanced brethren having red skin. To say nothing of how the aberrant was able to slightly meet Ryuu's blows with its greater strength.

"Bell be careful of the enhanced," I warned her as I dashed into the battle swinging my large Grass sword slicing into the large basic lizard men while Ryuu and Anya tag-teamed the aberrant Lizard men and quickly killed it as they were able to dance around it, allowing Anya to stab it deeply in the chest and neck several times in the course of a minute of fighting.

Having cleaned up the Lizardmen we looked over to the other party and the leader smiled before he began speaking and I noticed how they were all kind of scantily clad. "My thanks Jake, and congratulations on your level-up and record-breaking... Anyway, although we could have handled it I thank you for getting rid of the aberrant as those are always too damn strong without Captain Shakti helping take the heat of those bastards off our back." The man grumbled and from his mention of Shakti, I knew this party was from Ganeha's Familia.

"No problem we did kind of kill steal. So, you can have the drops and stuff. But did you guys see any exposed ore while down here?" I asked and the man blinked before chucking.

"Oh yeah, I forgot your little spatial trick. Uhm yeah, there's a large ditch or ravine over there with several ores being exposed but be careful as the ravine is a trap and will spawn a bunch of monsters when you start mining." He advised and I threw him a healing potion in thanks earning a nod of respect as he and his group went back into the jungle to the side.

"We shouldn't have given the monster stones and the drops from the aberrant away Nyah," Anya said stretching as she flipped her new spear through the air.

She was kind of right, but I had a good reputation as someone who only wanted materials and wouldn't fuck over people that weren't stupid like Apollo was. And I didn't want to lose said reputation merely for trying to nap an aberrant monster's drops when we all but kill stole it anyway.

"It's fine. There will always be more monsters... And the Lizardmen didn't have anything I wanted anyway." I said shaking my head as I saw the ravine in front of us. "Alright, Bell here," I said passing her back the flame thrower. "I am going to break some ore out of the dungeon's wall and then when the monsters spawn, I am going to leave the ravine so we can easily kill them and then I can keep mining," I said grinning as the dungeon made the stupid mistake of thinking that almost sheer cliff walls could keep me in the damned ravine when I had a grappling hook that would just drag me out.

A couple of hours later I had a great number of natural materials and monster materials so that I could make the spawner for the Queen Bee along with a bunch of other things like an Anglet of the Wind that would raise my natural bodies and mana regeneration. And was also one of the core ingredients to make the Lightning Boots which were just another step in making Terra Boots.

Not only did I accumulate a great number of resources, but I also drove Anya and Ryuu crazy when I maybe tried to tame a Vouivre... It was a female humanoid dragon monster. It had a red stone in its forehead known unfortunately when I broke the monster's wings and asked Ryuu how to tame a monster Bell literally shot the monster in the head.

"No Jake... You can tame a mount or something but no weird monster girls!" Bell said fiercely while blushing while I facepalmed as I wondered if that was going to get thrown out the window when the whole Xeno's came to the foreground.
