After floor 50th, the types of enemies and puzzles were enhanced to the very next level. For example, the monsters, which I would like to call as Elite Class monsters, were each SSS-Grade with each having a mastery of the weapon they usually held. What's more, they even had a strange aura made up of their respective elent that they use, that was hard to penetrate even after using its counter elent.
As for puzzles, once would require a certain amount of genius to actually solve them and it was quite hard to solve them without having an expertise in that field.
However, there was a plus point when it ca to floors above floor 50th… or more like a negative plus point honestly,
"The reset button," I muttered as I called that feature of this floor. If you feel like you are losing, you can reset everything from the beginning and try again from the start. However, you can't escape or return to lower floors. The only way was up.
Though this feature was the reason, my weapon mastery reached another level. The reason I was excellent in weapons that I could even barely use before was this dungeon.
If Adara was the one who taught how to use all weapons and the struggle after the first cataclysm made skilled in most of the weapons, the reason I was master of all weapons was this dungeon.
Repeating each weapon's movents over and over for a thousand tis, I was finally able to defeat all the elite monsters despite being one step lower than them. Though, this ti it should be easier than before…
As for the puzzles, while they were extrely impossible, there was always a way to break through them, which, if you succeeded in doing, will naturally increase your knowledge about that field on which that puzzle was based.
Though you needed at least basic knowledge to even start sowhere. In that regard, I was lucky to have my hands dipped in almost all fields.
This dungeon beca my ho once I realised how much I could exploit this feature. I thought as I wondered how much of this dungeon was custom made for the previous .
'Makes nostalgic,' I smiled as I thought before moving towards the dozen elite monsters who were standing motionless at a distance.
Ti flew by as another week passed and I finally reached Floor 66th, where the second boss monster was standing there observing the sea sitting on a lonely swing.
There were actually two swings, one of which was empty, and just like last ti, I moved towards that man and looked at him. Though unlike last ti, simply sitting on the swing, I spoke out,
"Excuse , can I sit on this swing at you?"
Perhaps just like the Twin Dragon, we can talk this one out and reach a stable conclusion, saving a lot of ti? How nice would that be! "Hmmm… is this a trick of yours, strange one?Last ti you just attacked , this ti however you are trying to talk," spoke that man as he turned around, making my eyes wide open.
"You seem surprised… and a bit different from last ti, too? Did sothing happen in the brief ti that we didn't et?" he kept speaking as I observed him with a look of disbelief.
"I am sorry but… isn't that the first ti we are eting?" I asked with a curious look on my face, but he made an odd face before asking,"no. What are you talking about, strange one? We have already fought 675 tis with my 675 wins and 0 losses."
There was a smug in his smile, there was a disbelief in my eyes. I an… this was the number of tis I fought him before I finally defeated him last ti, but… how?
"You look like you have a lot of questions, strange ones. It is making curious as well. Perhaps it would be nice to enlighten an old folk like ?" he spoke as he stroked his beard before he chuckled a little.
"It is… a long story. Would you like to hear that?" I spoke with a dumbfounded face before I saw him smiling as he pointed at the swing next to him and nodded a little.
Moving towards the swing, I sat on it before slowly starting swinging back and forth. I turned at him and spoke,"before I begin… Can I ask you a question?"
"I don't know if I am capable of answering it, but you may ask," he said as he looked in front of the Horizon.
"What exactly is this dungeon?" I asked with a really curious face and he turned at with his eyes widening a little as he asked,"Hoo! What prompted you to ask that question?"
"It is not bound by ti, is it? Or at least a part of it isn't… Also, based on the research I had done on this dungeon, this was a building that existed since ancient tis… Who are you… at first I thought you were just monsters generated by the dungeon but… that isn't true is it?" I asked with a curious mind and his eyes widened a bit more…
"So perhaps you have travelled in ti, I may presu? Otherwise you wouldn't have asked this question…" he reached that conclusion imdiately, and I nodded.
"Though, I am sorry, strange one. I really can't give you an answer to that. I am bound by my own laws," he spoke with an apologetic expression and I sighed before smiling and then speaking,
"Well… I guess I should have expected that much. So, want to hear my story, old man?" I smiled cheekily as I looked at that old man and he chuckled as he spoke,"Haha! You brat! You haven't changed one bit! How many tis did I tell you not to call that? I am still young as a 16-year-old kid."
"Ha! I would rather believe that Devils have turned into Angels than that stupid lie. That too from a sickly pervert, old man!" I joked with a dramatic voice before he looked at with an annoyed expression.
"Che! Kids these days, no respect for their elders," he spoke before a slight smile escaped at the corner of his lips.
"So, what happened to that always smiling kid? How did it turn into this serious, boring guy?" he asked with a curious expression.
