Although they had to fly for a while to reach the dungeon, Lucas ntioned, thanks to that, Ryan had the chance to see several camps along the way, and all of them were in front of so sort of dungeon. Ryan used Appraisal to check their classes, but he didn't find anything new.
"Your crossbow looks pretty powerful, Ryan, "Lucas said while looking at the weapon full of interest. "Did you get it by clearing a dungeon in which you got one of those powerful classes?"
"No, I obtained this when I killed a dragon that attacked ," Ryan replied.
The secret to lie well was to tell half-truths. Ryan didn't lie, but he also didn't tell Lucas that he obtained the crossbows when he killed soone like him.
Regardless, despite the fact that those guys were trying to kill so humans a few minutes ago, the survivors that fought alongside Lucas greeted him and barely frowned while looking at Ryan. Weirdly enough, they seed pretty used to visitors.
"By killing a dragon, huh," Lucas said. "You are quite insane; most people would trust to run at first sight instead of fighting."
"I tried, but the monster did not let escape," Ryan added. "It also looks like you got an interesting skill. Not only can you transform into a dragon, but your status also skyrocketed in that form."
"You probably don't know this, but so people make contracts with dragons to obtain their power and cooperation," Lucas said. "Considering your statuses, it surprises that none of them tried to negotiate with you."
"Yeah, I don't think most of them would negotiate with their lunch," Ryan said.
"Not all dragons are like that, you know," Lucas said. "They are beings just like us, but since their power is too great, most of them just sees us as insects."
Things were starting to get weird. If Lucas really were planning sothing, he wouldn't tell Ryan those things. Unless he was talking with his dragon and the monster was telling everything that Ryan knew. Co to think of it, Ryan didn't know the limits of the dragons' mind-reading skills. Could they read just his mind, or could they access old mories? If the second option was the correct one, Ryan was wasting his ti by pretending that he didn't know certain things.
"Well, there is an exception to every rule," Ryan said. "Regardless, can you tell a few things about this dungeon?"
"Sure," Lucas smiled. "Since the dungeon appeared, my friends and I managed to clear it before the dungeon breaks, so the level of difficulty of the place is reasonable, and it can even be compared to weaker dungeons. However, the monsters are a bit troubleso with their set of skills and nature of their bodies… they are ghosts."
"I can imagine… physical attacks don't work on them, right?" Ryan asked.
"Yes, although your crossbow can probably work on them, I wouldn't bet too much on the poisonous effect," Lucas said. "They specialize in cursing their targets and poisoning them as well. Hence, they have high resistance against negative effects such as curse and poison."
Curses… Ryan could imagine how troubleso those could be. It looked kind of scary to be cursed by a ghost, even though it was evident that the negative effect would disappear over ti. Ryan had Purification, but the skill was at a low-level since he was a ranged fighter.
"Well, you don't need to worry too much about it," Lucas smiled confidently. "I can clear the dungeon by myself just fine, and with your help, I bet it will be a cinch."
Lucas's behavior made Ryan even more suspicious, but he couldn't feel any malice coming from him weirdly enough. He was either a really nice guy despite the fact that he was fighting against other humans, or he was a maniac who was very good at fooling others with his actions and calm deanor.
Regardless, Ryan discovered that Lucas camps had at least one thousand survivors thanks to the long trip. Although everyone treated him like the leader, he wasn't the type to give orders often, and people feel comfortable at cracking jokes when he appeared and patted their back. It was truly weird…
In any case, after a few hours, they finally reached the dungeon Lucas had ntioned, and it was pretty close to the destroyed capital of the country. Although only six ghosts were spawning every ten minutes, four groups of six survivors were guarding the entrance.
"Hey, guys," Lucas said while wavering his hands at the survivors around. "I ca today again to do your job."
The survivors laughed when they heard that. While Lucas was greeting his friends, Ryan looked around and saw so workshops where the survivors repaired their gear, so tents in which they used to sleep, and so boxes filled with a strange semi-transparent slimy liquid.
"Those are the bodies of the ghosts. They beco like that once they die," Lucas explained. "We call it ectoplasm, and fortunately, we can use it to attack and make monsters suffer from the sa negative effects the ghosts can cause."
"Really?" Ryan frowned. "That is convenient."
"At the sa ti, the liquid can cause negative effects if we touch them recklessly," Lucas said. "It is really unpleasant, but if you want to increase your resistance against it, you will have to endure it."
While Ryan was interested in that, he wouldn't do it while unknown individuals surrounded him. Call him paranoid, but Ryan will never trust soone that easily again. Those who were overly friendly… especially those, he will make sure to keep several steps away from them.
"If you have so tracking skills that work in a wide area, I would advise you to keep it active," Lucas said. "Ghosts can't leave the dungeon until they reach the entrance, but they can hide in the walls and the ground. To avoid any unpleasant surprises, those skills are absolutely necessary."
