Chereads / The dungeon of pandemonium / Chapter 11 - Third floor

Chapter 11 - Third floor

When Jin and Iris finished collecting the equipment from the dead corpse of the hunters and summoned back the one hundred skeletons, he prepared on marking the third floor.

With the ten days of the villagers living on the first floor and the recent deaths of the hunters, he now had close to two hundred thousand points.

Just having those villagers live in the dungeon had greatly enhanced the number of GP they could receive. However, the most he got would still be the death of the hunters.

Just the death of eighteen of them had boosted the points by thirty thousand.

When he looked at this Iris and Jin were extremely excited but when Iris reminded Jin that the further down they were building in terms of floors or monsters, the price would go up exponentially.

This was like a cold bucket of water on Jin's head. Nonetheless, he was still extremely happy even if it was that he wasn't going to sleep on the floor anymore.

He didn't hesitate by buying two beds as Iris was also sleeping on her chair up until now.

Since the undeads were not eating but absorbing mana, he still had to keep a certain amount of GP in order for them to absorb.

Even tough, he felt it was a pain to have to rely on GP for the monsters to consume everyday, if was still better than having to bring them food.

Finishing his preparation, Jin created the stairs bringing down to the third floor.

It had taken a long time before creating the third floor and he had since long decided how he was going to create the floor.

On the third floor once again, he built different tunnels but this time he added chambers a little bit everywhere across the whole floor.

In these chambers, he would place a shadow. The shadows costed 500 DP and had a level from 20 to 30. But, compared to the skeleton minotaur on the previous floor, the shadows were way weaker even if they had the same level. It could be seen easily as their cost were completely different. The minotaur costed 10'000 GP while the shadow, a measly 500.

Of course, he didn't want monsters at the strength of the minotaur on this floor or his dungeon would be way to hard and the beginner adventurers in the future wouldn't stay in the dungeon which would lead to a decrease in the amount of GP he could receive.

Within the chambers, there were gates and once a party or a solo adventurer entered it, the gate would close and the shadow would reveal itself. The only way for the gates to open was to beat the shadow.

In the corridors between all the chambers were ghost that roamed the dungeon's floor.

The ghost, being level 15 to 25, they only costed 100 GP which was proof that they were a lot weaker than the shadows in the rooms but still stronger than the skeletons on the first floor.

While Jin was placing the monsters on the floor and preparing the trap that would stop the adventurers from leaving the room before they beat the shadow, Iris was completing the dungeon.

Before, Jin was the only one who would prepare the rooms for the dungeon but it took quite some time and both of them were really tired. Hence, while Jin was dealing with the monsters, Iris was completing the few tunnels left to do, transforming the floor, wall and ceiling into an indestructible material to finally complete the dungeon.

Of course, this was still not enough. Since they had more or less finished the floor, they looked through the map and saw that the terrain was too easy for the adventurer's as the only thing they could choose was right or left.

Jin remodelled the floor while Iris remodelled the walls. He added little hills and some pitfalls but he made sure that the pitfalls wouldn't kill anyone as this would scare some people. The pitfalls would at the maximum only break their foot depending on how they fell.

On Iris's side, the walls that she transformed would automatically close on themselves. But, it would take approximately thirty seconds before they would completely close, giving enough time for the adventurer's to run to somewhere it didn't move.

Well, if the adventurer in question was a moron, they couldn't do much about it and he would totally die. What did they expect? A walk in the park? Of course, there would be some death if the person exploring was either dumb or someone who didn't take things seriously. Not that it mattered anyway.

Once they completed the floor they moved their belongings which was, two beds, a chair and the dungeon's core further down to the third floor.

Now that he think about it, he really should have summoned the beds from the dungeon core after completing the third floor. He didn't have a choice and called for a few skeletons to move the things for him.

Even with all the transformation in the dungeon, they still had a little more than a hundred thousand and that's when it hit him.

The different monsters were gaining levels the longer they were summoned to the dungeon so wouldn't it be better to summon some demons or monster with an unlimited growth?

Iris had mentioned before that such demons existed so it would be great for the dungeon if he could summon them immediately.

He turned to Iris thinking about asking her. However, when he turned around to look at her... She was already asleep in her bed.

Jin smiled wryly before deciding to ask her the next day. But when he looked at her, one thing appeared in his mind. He should really create a floor with a house for them to live in. It wasn't necessarily the best to sleep in the monster's floor as adventurers could come at any time.

One thing great about the dungeon was that he could move a floor magically further down the dungeon. As such, even if he made is room on the fourth floor, he would still be able to move it further down in the future.

"It's decided! Let's make a house now that we have the points" Jin decided to make a surprise for Iris as he planned on having completed the next floor while she was sleeping.
