Rebirth of the Strongest Dungeon Master

Chapter 102 Canyon



Upon entering the First Floor of the dungeon, they were greeted by a beautiful view of a giant canyon. A row of cliffs of hard brown soil rose high. Green bushes adorned some places. A large green river flew through the land. The view was even more perfect with the orange sky from the sunset.

A paradise of earth that hid in the den of monsters.

Before exploring any further, Ling Tian held a briefing. Wang Yi as the representative of Nine Sky stood next to him. Meanwhile, Isaac hid himself with the other members. He kept a low profile.

"Since we're already in the dungeon and become a team, it's best if we match our goals to enter this dungeon."

Ling Tian glanced at Wang Yi for a moment, and the woman nodded in agreement.

"The Golden Dragon actually came here at the request of the government. They were worried that the incident that happened in the dungeon on the tripoint border would also happen in this dungeon; as we knew, the Siberian Knight and Black Dragon were destroyed in a few weeks. Thus, we were sent to search for their whereabouts."

Hearing Ling Tian's words, all the members of Nine Sky darkened. Only Wang Yi and Isaac remained normal.

"So, our objective is Floor 2. Based on the latest news, Alpha from Floor 1 was already dead and they haven't had any contact with the Hunter Association since then. Most likely, they're still there. We don't know what's going on in Floor 2, so I hope we can help each other and let go of our egos for now."

Now, the Golden Dragon's motive had been revealed. Wang Yi's suspicion of them had lessened, although she still didn't understand why the Hunter Association didn't contact her instead of asking for the help of the Golden Dragon.

Then, they moved.

The path they took was around the cliff. They followed the flow of the long river that was in the canyon. According to the information they got, the teleportation gate was on an island in the middle of a lake that became the mouth of a river.

Along the way, they were confronted by low-class beast-type monsters such as; mutant rodents and kobolds. Of course, monsters of that class couldn't put up a fight against the combined forces of Nine Sky and Golden Dragon.

There were only a handful of monsters that bothered them enough.

Herds of mountain lions attack them in small numbers. The monsters were fearless. They jumped into the crowd of hunters and pounced on anyone in their path. However, no one was hurt when the hunters were confronted by those monsters.

The monster that troubled them the most was the centaur. They were half human and half horse monsters. Unlike the wild mountain lion monsters, centaurs had intelligence. They attacked through higher ground; hit the hunters with fire arrows and stones. After launching a ranged attack, they quickly left the location.

The guerrilla tactics of the centaurs were enough to make the hunters curse them in annoyance.

Throughout the battle against the monsters, the members of Golden Dragon and Nine Sky seemed to be trying to dominate each other. They tried to show off their abilities. The person who seemed to be trying their best was Wang Yi. Several times, she would throw herself into the monsters and finish them off completely.

Meanwhile, Isaac only did what he needed to do. He became a supporter and killed the monsters that were within his reach. He didn't want to show off his strength. On top of that, he used a 'Mortal Ring' that cut his entire stat in half to hide his demon's aura. He even wore a helmet for the sake of maintaining his identity.

Everything was done so as not to be detected by Earl Xenovia.

Isaac took advantage of this moment to watch, observe, and analyze the combat power of the Golden Dragon, especially their leader, Ling Tian.

He was now observing the man facing a group of giant tarantula monsters with his other members.

'This human is pretty good too. If only he had a higher class.'

<Information>

[Name : Ling Tian]

[Race : Human]

[Type : N/A]

[Class : B]

[Level : 60]

So far, Ling Tian was the highest level of human Isaac had ever seen.

The gold-armored troops formed a formation. There were 50 people, thirty of them were close combat type, they served as a barrier for incoming attacks, while in the back row, there were long-range attackers.

"Everyone! Strengthen the front defenses; no lust to kill them, keep the formation tight!"

Ling Tian as their combat commander was in the vanguard. He raised his shield and swung his longsword at every tarantula that came at him.

The dozens of spider monsters tried to attack from all directions, but the solid formation of Golden Dragons didn't leave any gaps.

"The attack came at nine o'clock!"

After shouting that, the wizards in the gold chain mail raised their staff, then various elemental magics; arrows of fire, ice crystals, whirlwinds, raining down on the tarantulas.

Kaaaakkkk

The monsters let out a strange squeaky sound. The scorched and strange smell filled the air. They were burned, split, crumbled, and ended up lifeless.

Gradually, the number of monsters decreased little by little.

On the other hand, a different sight was set on Nine Sky. If the Golden Dragon formed an unbreakable solid formation, then they took up the tactic of fighting as a group.

They fought in teams. Each team consisted of five people. Three melee fighters and the rest were mages or marksmen. One strongest person became agro, two fighters guard the two ranged attackers.

This tactic was different from what Isaac had been taught during his training. This was the standard tactic used by the Hunter Association.

And the person who ordered it was naturally Wang Yi.

This tactic was effective when used for exploration, but not in massive scale battles. As a result, the members of Nine Sky received a lot of damage from being outnumbered.

Wang Yi seemed to be struggling hard. She and her team took out as many monsters as possible and helped other squads.

"Hurry up! Squad 18 is being surrounded! We have to hurry or they will die!"

The woman slashed every monster in front of her.

Slash! Slash! Slash!

Splat! Splat! Splat!

The tarantula's body pieces were strewn across the pool of blood.

Wang Yi had the 'Teleport (B)' skill that allowed her to move from one point to another within a radius of 10 meters. Thanks to that, she was able to kill dozens of tarantulas by herself.

On the other hand, Aditya who was included in her group seemed overwhelmed by the movement of his leader. Whenever he treated an injured member, Wang Yi quickly moved to another squad to help them.

"Miss Wang! You're too fast!" Aditya exclaimed.

He ran while hitting the tarantula with the staff in his hand. Other members helped withstand the attack that targeted the big man.

"Do not complain! Or there will be a lot of people dying. You don't want that to happen, do you?"

Aditya could only hiss at the command. Inevitably, he had to quicken his footsteps even though his lungs were screaming.

He tried to treat the injured hunters as quickly as possible. In less than 10 seconds, the entire wound above the skin surface was healed. Then, he moved to follow Wang Yi again. Thanks to that, Aditya pushed his abilities to the limit.

Isaac saw that smiling widely.

'Another potential arises in an unexpected situation.'

However, his smile quickly disappeared when he saw Wang Yi.

He was disappointed how the woman led her members. Wang Yi made a decision without considering the capabilities of her men. Besides, she didn't use the tactics Isaac had taught her.

"If you continue like that, you will die. It's just a matter of time," he muttered.

Isaac saw Wang Yi throw herself again into the sea of tarantulas. She left her men behind to block the attacks targeting the other members.

Blink! Blink! Blink!

She teleported every second, killing the tarantula monsters one by one. After killing one tarantula, she disappeared and moved to another tarantula and split them from behind.

Wang Yi was unstoppable. Until finally she started to run out of mana.

"Keeeeguhh--"

Wang Yi's teleportation distance decreased. She landed in the wrong place; not behind, but in front of a three meter tall tarantula monster.

Pew! Pew! Pew!

"Arrrggggk!"

A small mass of bullet-shaped webs pierced the woman. She screamed. Her body felt like being thrown with hard pebbles. Even her head was bruised, although the webs were sticky liquid.

Wang Yi immediately teleported again.

Blink!

Unfortunately, not in a safe place; instead she moved to the opposite.

Wang Yi found herself in the middle of being surrounded by the tarantula monsters. Dozens of pairs of red eyes stared at her as if she was their prey. She tried to teleport again, but her mana wasn't enough. Not to mention that her entire body was covered in a sticky web that made her unable to move freely.

Fear began to creep and overflow. Wang Yi shook.

"Miss Wang!"

Her squad members, who watched their leader in danger, screamed their lungs out. Aditya thoughtlessly dashed through the crowd of tarantula monsters, trying to save the woman.

However, they were too far apart.

The tarantula monsters opened their mouths and let out a pair of claw-like fangs. Instantly, Wang Yi's face turned deathly pale.

Not long after, a woman's scream echoed through the air.
