At this moment, [ Gu Gugu ] said:
" The Dungeon' is actually just a name. We call any area that we can enter, explore, and fight in Dungeon. For example, before Fir City was liberated, many Soul Returner also called Fir City Dungeon."
Duma nodded and began his conversation with him:
"And now?"
"Now that Fir City is ours, we can't run wild there anymore, so it's no longer Dungeon."
That cathedral?
"Yes, so the Cathedral is the area that the Son of God has now redesignated as Dungeon. Inside the Cathedral, everyone can fight to their heart's content. There are rewards for killing a lot and killing well, and there are penalties for killing slowly or being killed."
As Gu Gugu spoke, he gave Gorn a cryptic smile.
Duma roughly understood. In his mind, the so-called " Dungeon " was actually similar to the arena that a certain demon king had created for pleasure a thousand years ago. Different races of demons responded to the demon king's call and fought each other in the arena, including himself in his youth.
If he hadn't possessed some courage and strength in his youth, he might have died long ago at the hands of other demons.
I never knew the Son of God had this kind of hobby?
I hadn't noticed it at all before.
Duma had already begun to fill in the blanks in his mind, but on the surface he still looked puzzled, because some of the logic was indeed not yet sound.
He looked at Gorn, then at [ Gu Gugu ]:
"Can it also enter Dungeon?"
[ Gu Gugu ] tilted his head and asked in confusion:
"If he doesn't go, who will we kill?"
"Ah?"
The voice came from neither a player nor a demon, but from Gorn, who was being carried forward by two players.
Duma and [ Gu Gugu ] had just communicated entirely in the Kingdom's language without any attempt to conceal their identities, so of course he could understand them.
Although he didn't understand what Dungeon was, Gorn realized that what awaited him was not good.
[ The Good Times Don't Last ] Seemingly realizing Duma's misconception, he went to the other side of Duma and whispered:
You may have misunderstood something.
" The Dungeon isn't some kind of PvP... uh, it's not a place for Soul Returner to fight each other, but rather a place where Soul Returner form teams to confront those chosen sinners."
Duma asked in confusion:
"What if they're all killed off?"
[ Good Times Don't Last long] Shaking head:
"Although I don't know the exact mechanism, you can't actually kill them all. Every time you kill them all, you just need to exit and re-enter to play again."
"Can this ' Dungeon ' be entered an unlimited number of times?"
"Of course, as long as you can afford the ticket."
"Gurgle."
This time, it was Duma who was swallowing hard, because another question that had troubled him for a long time was finally explained at this moment.
That was Motley and " The Wild Hunt " whom I encountered when I first Valhalla.
At first, he thought the Wild Hunt was just a special group among the Soul Returner, but after observing for the past two days, he discovered that the Wild Hunt and the Soul Returner were not entirely the same.
Both can face death without fear, but the attitude of the Soul Returner is always positive. It's the kind of mentality that if you die, you die, but you can always start over. They would rather die than let the enemy suffer greater damage.
The Wild Hunt, on the other hand, face death with a different kind of nonchalance, almost like giving up. They don't care who killed them, how much damage they can inflict on their enemies, or even friendly attacks that they could easily dodge, as if they are looking forward to death.
After chatting with [ Gu Gugu ] and [ Good Times Don't Last ], Duma finally understood the difference between the two.
Only those Soul Returner are truly possessors of a resolute soul; as for the Wild Hunt, they are nothing more than a group of heinous criminals who cannot live and cannot die.
Having figured all this out, Duma looked at Gorn with a hint of pity in her eyes.
However, despite his pity, if the Son of God could agree to let him enter the Dungeon alone once later, he would be willing to exchange a month's salary for it.
Despite Duma having four eyes that could freely observe and move, Gorn still sensed a hint of emotion in his gaze.
Oh my god, how did I end up like this? Who did this to me?
Because of Antiya Lisi?
No, Antiya Lisi is dead. Even if we blame him, there's no way to hold him accountable.
Because of Marba?
No, Marba is already dead, and although I left the city following Marba's orders, is this entirely my responsibility?
One knightly order couldn't completely destroy the supply depot, which is why Marba approached him, who managed two knightly orders.
So why am I in charge of two knightly orders?
Because a stupid Grand Knight Commander of the Knights Order handled the Rat King incident like a pile of shit, he was ordered to go home and reflect on his actions by Antiya Lisi, and he hasn't been released yet!
That's right, it's all because of him, it's all because of that idiot Knight Commander Howard. If it weren't for his incompetence, I would never have ended up in this situation.
And that high knight commander who was relieved of his post might now be leisurely at home with his family, and might even be reinstated after the rebels take over Fir City!
Damn it, I can't accept this!
This idiot deserves to be brought to justice!
Thinking of this, Gorn trembled violently. On the surface, he seemed to be breaking free from the restraints of the two Soul Returner, but in reality, he wanted to attract the attention of the manager and the sweet potato spirit in front of him.
"Waaaaah, Awooo, Ahhh!"
Gorn made a series of indistinct sounds and showed no sign of stopping.
[Unable to bear the noise any longer, the Good Times Don't Last long, and she turned her head away angrily.]
"Children shouldn't interrupt adults. What are you all saying, 'uh-huh' and 'ah-ah'?"
Seeing the person in charge looking at him, Gorn quickly said:
"I want to report this!"
[ Gu Gugu ] frowned:
"What the hell are you saying? Watch me give him a good beating..."
"Wait."
[ The Good Times Don't Last. ] He frowned, met Gorn's gaze for a moment, and then looked at Duma:
"Could you put his jaw back in first?"
Duma thought about it and felt that his previous behavior might have been a bit too extreme. He had already separated his identity from Marba and Duma, and had just confirmed the true identity of Wild Hunt. Logically speaking, the Soul Returner should not know about the little secret of the tacit understanding between him and the Tree God.
Under these circumstances, failing to properly address Gorn's ulterior motives would only make one's own actions more suspicious.
So he nodded, reached out a hand and placed it on Gorn's chin, lifting it up with a snap. In extreme pain, Gorn regained his ability to speak.
