As for Arnoux, he is in the second layer of body tempering. Looking at the ten people, he thought first to send someone to scout the area first. Although It might be cruel to send someone to an unknown dangerous place, he doesn't have a choice.
Because if he goes there and died for some unknown reason, the village will become even more in danger, not just from that unknown thing but also from bandits.
"You three, I need you to scout the place first, can you do that."
"Yes, sir." The three unfortunate people looked at each other wryly. They know that it's a dangerous task, but they don't have a choice. It's not out of fear for Arnoux, it's because this is their home, and their wives and children are in this village.
Arnoux can only look at them apologetically, shortly after, the three left, he then looked at the two first layer body tempering.
"Eryx and nox, I will trouble you two to prepare everything."
"Okay sir, no problem." Eryx said while saluting.
"No problem." Nox said leisurely, in contrast to Eryx's serious expression.
----------------------------
Looking around, Argon found himself in a... Forest?
"Huh?" He looked around with a confused look.
"Ding" abruptly a transparent screen pops up in front of him.
[This is the first floor of Eternal Dungeon the Wild Forest map, the first one is considered free, In the next, the host needs to buy it.]
"Wait a minute, systems. I thought you run off, and now you are back. System do you know what I experience? I experience hell!!. You know, you should have told me about the world before you left." Argon wanted to cry in misery.
However, the system didn't respond as though it didn't hear his suffering. But instead, a text pops up.
[To buy a creature, the host just needs to open the shop and go to the monster section. Take note, If the creature dies in the hands of an outsider it will take an hour or longer to respawn. That's why to maintain the dungeon, the more creatures the better.]
Seeing the text, Argon becomes serious. He doesn't care about the system anymore.
He then opened the shop, and proceed to the monster section. There are all kinds of creatures in the shop, there are dragons, demons, angels, and a lot of unfamiliar ones. But looking at the prices makes him dizzy.
Without any delay, Argon took out all the expensive stuff. What's left we're all creatures below one hundred soul coin.
[King Slime
Cultivation: Early stage Opening Qi
Price: 100 soul coins]
[Wind Wolf
Cultivation: Early stage Opening Qi
Price: 100 soul coins]
[Aufhocker
Cultivation: Early stage Opening Qi
Price: 100 soul coins]
There were still a lot of one-hundred soul coin creatures, too bad he can't afford it. It's not that he can't afford it, but he needs to manage his soul coins carefully. He even felt tempted, since the Opening Qi is pretty strong.
Earlier, miraculously the system told him the power scaling of this world. Start from Body Tempering, Building Base, Opening Qi, Qi Gathering, Golden Core, Core formation, Soul strengthening, Soul-body converging, Heaven's Gate, and Heavenly Realm.
After some time of rummaging through the system, he finally found something that interests him.
