I did the warm-up moves for about 5 minutes and started the dungeon rush. It was damp and there are mossy things that emit light. It's a sight to see, but people don't even have time to look at this beauty.
Since feeling sadden for them wouldn't change anything, I started walking, I need to work my senses of hearing and smell to the limit, as the light source is scarce here. But I can't shape my body the way I want. I don't even know how to do this, I wish there was a slime who could teach me these things.
I had the metal hands ability before, but I didn't even have the opportunity to try it out, so now must be a good opportunity to try it out.
I activated the ability and an iron layer formed covering the upper part of my fingers, although it hurts a little, but in general it's good. I tried to cut it with a knife, when I added a little too much force, it cut and blood began to flow from the inside
I was officially surprised by what just happened, even though it looks like a hard layer of iron from my fingers to my wrist, maybe only 2 cm of it is a layer of iron, the rest is made up of my flesh and blood.
'Let's close..? It's not closed'
I think that's how I'm going to travel now. It looks really sharp though. Try it on that goblin over there.
It literally pierced his skull. This thing is too op.
There's a wolf. I sneaked up on him from behind, but his paw came out faster than mine, and it gave me a scratch on the face that hurt, although not deep. But my hand did not stop there and pierced the wolf's throat.
As I looked at the wolf's lifeless body, a single thought crossed my mind.
'Am I ready for this kind of negotiation system?'
Probably not, but it's okay because I'm not causing unnecessary carnage either. For the rest of my progress, I avoided unnecessary battles and came to the boss room.
I opened the door and what I saw was not very good for my stomach. But I tried to hold on.
The adventurers who have come here before and lost are right in front of me. They have all turned into zombies, some have drooping eyes, some have no arms or legs.
They noticed me and performed their death walk towards me.
"... I'm sorry,"
Those were the only words I could say for them, I don't even know if their minds are still in place. And whether anyone heard me here. But I will avenge you on the person who killed you here.
And a massacre that no one wants to see has started, even though I said a few minutes ago that I would not commit a massacre, I am not doing a massacre now. I cut them with my claws, I chopped them up, they bit the ground, but I didn't stop until I killed them all.
When it had Decapitated them all, a small, 10 cm tall creature came out from among the corpses and started to run away. I killed him without thinking, and the dungeon began to shake and the stairs opened.
I started slowly going down the stairs.
****
"Ugh... I ran out of bandages."
The bandages I took with me have dried up, and since this is the last one, I can no longer heal my wounds even if I wanted to. My paws are starting to blunt too, I can't cut as comfortably as I used to.
I got up from my seat and started moving through this hellhole.
"Argghhhh?!!!"
A knife was stuck in my left calf and I reflexively responded. And I killed. I pulled out the knife with a quick movement, but I have to stop here. In this case, 3. I can't go up to the floor or back down. I'm a little cornered.
I passed softly to the very corner of the dungeon and covered myself with mosses. Creatures don't usually come to the corners of the dungeon, but I still have to be careful.
I took out the healing potion I had taken and applied some of it to the wounds I received today and drank the rest. I have both internal and external wounds.
There's not much I can do right now, I just have to wait. Weapons do damage easily, since my body is still not as hard as iron.
I think I'm growing up erratically. Even though I have a lot of physical strength, my defense is only a little better than a normal human.
If I level up as I kill, my defense will naturally get stronger, but we're not playing a game. I opened my soul notebook and started looking to kill some free time.

Venom's rise has stopped, my race is on the rise... Although it can also be said that it is developing. I don't know if it's the cleverness of the cabolts here, but they usually ambush
I closed my eyes and gradually fell asleep.
****
When I woke up, I was hungry, but there was no food with me. Because that wolf attacked my backpack, I lost most of the things in it.
"I think I'm better now."
When I got up to get out of the dungeon, I felt dizzy. It still hurts, but there's no bleeding. Even that's enough.
I moved forward for a long time, avoiding most monsters, and finally got out.
I got to the guild in half an hour. To recover, I rested for 2 days, trained and replenished my things.
I sharpened my claws, but I stopped because I felt in my gut that if I did it any more, I would erode it.
I set out again for the dungeon rush. I was beautifully prepared, as I realized that the dungeon is not a joke.
1. floor the dungeon. solid is easy. 2. since it was development, I cleaned it very easily and quickly 2. i went up to the floor. And this is almost 1. I cleaned this place quickly because it's the same as the floor, but the boss of this place is a hobgoblin wizard.
As soon as he saw me, he tried to paralyze me with lightning magic, but thanks to the fact that we were far away and I realized at the last moment, I survived.
I tried to close the distance between us, but it opened a distance between us by flying, and because it made a lightning field, he does constant damage.
Fortunately, it doesn't know where he needs to hit. I'm also somehow closing the distance between us. As I approached to punch him, I realized that he was protecting himself with the mana shield, and he threw a ball of flame at me from close range.
"Aghhhh!!!!"
I was thrown metres away. The ball of flame that hit my chest almost killed me, most of the hairs on my head burned, part of my mouth is hanging out.
I tried to get up, but I staggered, and it looks like it's about to end.
I quickly threw the healing potion into my mouth, and I also threw the empty glass hard to a distant place. The magician was distracted by the sound that came out.
This gave me the space I wanted, and I came up with a clever solution for the mana shield. Mana shields are oval, so if I hit them hard in the middle, they will break.
While this was going through my mind, I attacked the mana shield and it worked. But I couldn't hit it this time as it tried his luck with a lightning spell from close range.
"2. Times won't work!!!"
I quickly recovered and pierced his neck. I gave him a quick and painless death... So I hope it's painless.
I checked the goblin wizard's stuff, and there were some useful stones, but that's it, and one orb.
I picked up the sphere, but I was shocked by what I saw.
"I burned my hair all over my head?!!!!!!"
Even the little beards that grew on my chin burned out, I became bald.
3 in a depressed manner. i went to the floor, this time my enemy is superior goblin-like creatures, I know where I have to hit because I have fought before.
But I don't think these are superior goblins or anything. In fact, these are not even male or female.
There are no reproductive organs... How is such a thing possible, creatures born in a dungeon are infertile? But this is ridiculous, the natural ecosystem is not formed because of this.
I suddenly stopped and started thinking, what if the purpose of this place is not to create an ecosystem?
People are attacking dungeons and they want the dungeon core, right? What if these monsters are the creatures that protect that core?
It's a kind of immune system, isn't it?! We are the ones who attack this creature and they are the ones who defend it.
Kind of like an anthill, these are expendable soldiers. When they die, the mana core comes out of them, and in this way, other creatures look at it as a kind of chicken laying golden eggs here. No one would kill a chicken like that.
The dungeon survives by giving them a few mana cores.
I buried this ridiculous information in a corner of my mind and continued to move forward.
As I progressed, I saw 2 new creatures, a harpy and a golem. Unfortunately, I couldn't defeat my golem, but I defeated most of the harpies, even if there were 1-2 of them that got away, in general, I won.
The golems were very tough, you know, my claws can't pierce these golems, and when I attack, my claws become blunt.
I came all the way to the boss's room while more strange things were going on in my head. I entered with uneasiness.
"... So we got fucked"
There's a 3 metres Harpy inside.
