As we leave the cabin and start walking toward the mountain range, Nix steps out of my shadow and walks beside .
"Master, how long will it take to get to this village you speak of?" (Nix)
"Didn't you hear Jana explain yesterday?" (I)
"I was sleeping in her shadow." (Nix)
"Alright, the village is quite far away, so traveling on foot will take a month or so." (I)
"Wouldn't it be faster to travel by flying?" (Nix)
"It would be, but how do you expect us to do that, apart from the Fairies and Spirits here, only Vanessa and I can fly." (I)
"Not to ntion that I haven't even tested the skills I've gotten lately because of lack of ti." (I)
"You could travel inside the Dungeon while I fly to this village." (Nix)
"..." (I)
"(How did I miss sothing so simple?)" (I)
"Now that I think about it, one of us has to stay outside the Dungeon, don't we?" (I)
"If you are worried about getting trapped inside the dungeon, then you can relax, even if we both enter the dungeon you will respawn in the sa place you entered, it will only leave an exposed entrance where we were if we are both inside the dungeon." (Nix)
"The entrance to a dungeon is its link and anchor to our world, so it is always open and cannot be closed until the dungeon's destruction, my case is special as I have an open entrance inside at all tis." (Nix)
"Which is impossible while I'm alive." (I)
"Yea." (Nix)
"If we were to travel inside the Dungeon with you flying it would attract a lot of attention, right?" (I)
"If you're worried about my dragon form, then relax, I can fly in my human form too, but I'll be much slower and my power is reduced, in my dragon form the travel will be much faster." (Nix)
"But from what Jana and Dora told us, Farus has troops scattered throughout the mountain range, it would be dangerous to fly." (I)
"So we shouldn't fly at night? Their vision will be impaired, right?" (Layla)
"No, the undead have night vision, they will still be able to see us." (I)
"Maybe I can camouflage myself in my Dragon form, my scales are dark and crystal-like with star-like glows, I can go unnoticed in the night sky if I fly high enough." (Nix)
"That's a really good idea." (I)
"I had already imagined that Farus' troops would notice us on the way to Jana's village, but if we hide inside the Dungeon and manage to sneak into the village, that will give us the opportunity for a surprise attack." (I)
"That's if they don't find flying." (Nix)
"But I don't know how to enter the Dungeon, I haven't had ti yet to see what I can do as a Dungeon Master." (I)
"As the Dungeon is part of I have access to its stored information, I know everything about the Dungeon itself." (Nix)
"For starters, the master can open a gate to the Dungeon using any shadow he cos in contact with, we just need to think that he wants to go to the Dungeon and the gate will open, if I am outside the Dungeon I can close the gate, but if I'm inside the dungeon, the gate will stay open until you or I leave." (Nix)
"I think I get it, it sounds simple, but I'll have to be careful where I open that gate." (I)
As I talk to Nix, Layla sits on my shoulder listening to everything, I also noticed that Ivan and Diana who are nearby can hear us.
"I wanted to know more about the Dungeon." (I)
"I can show the master, see." (Nix)
Nix reaches out to palm up and a crystal pops out of her body only halfway down the center of her palm, then information starts to appear in front of like it's so kind of hologram.
The information was clearly described in front of , thanks to my gaming knowledge I could largely understand what was written there, but there was still so much I couldn't understand.
I look around but it seems like no one is seeing it, even Layla is looking confusedly at Nix's hand, as if she's been waiting for sothing to happen, but nothing does.
"Was sothing supposed to happen?" (Layla)
"Can't you see that Layla?" (I)
"See what?" (Layla)
"Only you and I can see this, master." (Nix)
"I have access to the Dungeon information all the ti since the core is inside , but you need to use the core to verify this information, in our case you need to talk to so I can show you the Dungeon information." (Nix)
"I think I understand, but could you explain more about the Dungeon's functions?" (I)
"Sure." (Nix)
"We'll talk about this until it's dark, then I'll tell everyone about our plan." (I)
----------
I spent all day listening to the Dungeon's explanations, Layla who was on my shoulder all day also listened while Nix spoke, but it seems that it was difficult for Layla to understand everything since there was a lot of information at the sa ti.
I was able to quickly understand everything Nix was saying as I could associate the Dungeon information with the information from various gas from my old world, but there were still so things that were hard for to accept.
What I could understand was that "Dungeon Points (DP)" are used for everything you do, are used to build or remodel a floor, are used to summon monsters, are used to build traps, and are used to buy items.
From what Nix said I could understand that the "Dungeon Points (DP)" are not so kind of currency, but a representation of the energy accumulated inside the Dungeon converted into numbers to facilitate my understanding.
It seems that a Dungeon absorbs Mana, Ki, Spiritual Energy, Vitality, etc.
A Dungeon can absorb all of this and transform it into its own energy which is "Dungeon Points (DP)".
It seems that every spell, skill, or energy that emanates from a person while inside the Dungeon can be absorbed to beco "Dungeon Points (DP)", but not only energies, the Dungeon can devour the blood spilled inside it and it can also devour dead bodies of either people or monsters to turn into "Dungeon Points (DP)".
Nix also said that killing soone inside the Dungeon gives many points at once, she also said that the stronger the person inside the Dungeon, the more "Dungeon Points (DP)" will be gained while staying inside the Dungeon and the more points will be gains if that person or monster dies inside the Dungeon.
Also, it seems that the monsters summoned by the Dungeon don't give "Dungeon Points (DP)" to the Dungeon and their deaths also don't give DP, only when the Dungeon devours their dead bodies will it gain so DP.
It seems that there are several ways to summon a monster, I can directly summon the monsters that are going to be the first generation and will not have reproduction capabilities, in addition, it seems that they will not have a soul being completely under the control of the Dungeon, they will only have a simple mind and a strong instinct that matches the type of monster.
In addition, there is a special summons that is for Variant and Unique monsters, they are more expensive to summon but they are stronger, the only problem is that it seems that soulless monsters have no potential and therefore are not able to evolve.
Nix explained to that the Dungeon is able to store the souls of those who died inside the Dungeon, these souls can be used in two ways, the first is to release the souls in exchange for DP that will be calculated with the power and potential that the soul has, the second way is to use this soul during a special summon, this is similar to a forced reincarnation, it also looks like I will be able to choose to keep the soul mories or not, no matter what I choose the monster will still be completely loyal to , that's because he won't be the person this soul originated from, he'll only have their mories which may allow him to inherit so or all of their abilities.
Nix said that soulless monsters cannot leave the Dungeon in normal situations, this will only happen if the Dungeon is super crowded, so a wave of monsters will happen forcing the monsters to leave the Dungeon.
It seems that only souled monsters can enter and exit the Dungeon, but that doesn't lessen their connection to the Dungeon itself.
One thing I discovered talking to Nix was that I can't choose the monster in a special to summon normally, if I want a specific type of monster I have to buy a certain item in the shop for that.
Nix said that the shop allows to buy materials from Dungeon monsters, Crystal Cards referring to Dungeon monsters or people who die inside the Dungeon, ingredients such as magical or dicinal herbs, tals, etc.
It seems that the Dungeon also has a treasure room which is where all the items from the defeated monsters and people will be stored when their bodies are devoured by the Dungeon.
The Dungeon's assimilation function should be locked as well, but Nix said that he took advantage of the mont of the Dungeon's creation to assimilate the mansion and surrounding land into the Dungeon, which made the function unlocked from the beginning.
She said that this function helps to assimilate monsters, buildings, and places within the Dungeon, but there are requirents that must be t for this.
Nix also inford that so of the Dungeon features are locked until I et certain requirents but she doesn't know what they are and that's how we spent an entire day with her teaching about Dungeons.
