Epic Of Ice Dragon: Reborn As An Ice Dragon With A System

Chapter 149: Dungeons

-----

So it seems that I ate a weapon, and it gave me some Skills, as it was a magical weapon of sorts.

It seems that Magic Weapons comes from… Dungeons! I don't know where these dungeons are or what they are, but Draugann quickly joined with us alongside Benladann as they started to explain to us what this was.

"Dungeons are something that everyone knows about… You never came across any of them through your journey?" sighed Draugann.

"Not at all, not even Benladann did. I suppose the areas where we came from lacked them," I said.

"Indeed, it seems to be the case…" said Benladann.

"Well, to resume, Dungeons are… Well, like underground structures where monsters appear, they are often like giant underground mazes. They are filled with interesting monsters you don't see outside that much, often they drop things when you kill them… " said Draugann.

"Useful items?" asked Benladann.

"Erm, it varies, most of the time it is useless garbage… But high-ranked dungeons can drop better stuff. The magic blade the dragon just ate was one of the better prizes you can get. Whole sects are working around dungeons because they are amazing sources of items and so on," said Draugann.

"Ooh… So cool! Maybe we could get into a dungeon? Maybe we could get some prizes! Do they drop food?" asked Benladann.

"Erm… I don't know if they would drop food, but it is said that sometimes they drop things such as Health or Mana Potions, Antidotes, or even the prized and rare Elixirs," said Draugann.

It seems that there is yet another RPG element in this nonsystem world, dungeons that magically produce monsters and items out of thin air.

I am sure that there might be some rule behind their creation of items, but for now, that's how it seems to me…

"I wonder if the Gods maintain the dungeons… or if the dungeons are merely created spontaneously…" I said.

"I don't know, but there are some tales that the one that created Dungeons was some sort of Demon of the past, who fought the first Immortal Venerable in history… It was an elf… I think the name was… Oberon?" wondered Draugann.

Oi holds up for a bit, that's a lot of stuff I didn't even know about! contemporary romance

But let's not go for it yet, the topic at hand seems interesting enough for now.

"A Demon from the past?" wondered Benladann.

"Some old story… I don't know if it is even real or not," said Draugann.

"Do you know anything else about dungeons? From where these bandits could get this weapon?" I asked.

"Most likely they got it from the dungeon near the town we live in, the Ice Moon Sect uses this dungeon as a resource gathering point, although they don't let normal folk get in because we can easily get killed by the monsters inside… It is said that the last floors even have Rank 3 monsters!" said Dregeann.

Rank 3 Monsters?! That would be ideal for me! If I can hunt as much as I wanted there… I could easily increase my cultivation.

Though… a sect, it would be a pain to deal with. And I am not into sicko mode to destroy the whole city so I can get the dungeon for myself.

Maybe they could let visitors get in for a fee or something? Hm… I wouldn't really like to cause commotion if possible. But you never know, if I go there like a dragon I will most likely alert the guards, and everyone will try to either kill me or run away from me.

It would be ideal if everyone just ran away, but I don't think they would leave such a precious place and abandon everything. If there is a sect there, there might be strong cultivators that are raised to become strong sect members, and then, there would be the sect master… Usually, sect masters are the strongest cultivators in the sect, right? So the guy might be tough.

But even then… killing him and taking over the sect might just cause even more trouble, because other sects might learn one way or another, and I would get hunted down.

So the solution is… not being a bloodthirsty psychopath!

"Do you have any plans of getting into the dungeon, lord Drake? I wouldn't mind you bringing me there with my family! …Though, it might be tough to get you inside as a dragon," said Dregeann.

"Yes, I do plan to get there eventually. It would be a nice experience, and I would like to get into those Rank 3 Monsters," I said.

"Hm, but getting a big and scary dragon like you there might prove to be an issue," said Draugann.

"Y-Yeah…" sighed Benladann.

"Well, don't worry about that for now. At the moment, I would like to know anything else any of you know regarding this… erm, region," I said.

In the end, we ended chatting about a few things through the night, it was an enriching experience where I learned a few things.

One of them was that there were Five Great Devils or Demons in the past, whom the first venerable fought against… These guys were said to have special demonic powers unrelated to magic known as Unique Skills…

Yes. They were reincarnated people, no doubt…

Each guy brought into the world something new that wasn't in this world before, one brought dungeons, another technology, another monster through summoning, another made it so the dead as able to raise, and another broke fate and generated many natural disasters that changed the landscape…

They pretty much turned the place upside down… And apparently, this happened millions of years ago.

Just how old is this world's civilization?! Even older than Earth! What?!

I see, so that greenwood bastard got the technology from this demon of ancient times… But why do not normal people have technology? Well, because it is considered a taboo, said to be a demonic power, so righteous sects hunt down people that utilize it…

But I guess not dungeons? Yeah, I can see that things are shifted around.

Perhaps technology is too strong and gives unfair advantages that the righteous sects don't like, so they hunt down the users…
