Chapter 775 - Moniac Dungeon
After the tour, they finally finished their matters and immediately had some sleep, preparing to hunt more monsters inside the Moniac Dungeon.
The next day.
They headed straight to the Moniac Dungeon on foot. On the way, Agata briefed him about the dungeon's information.
"The dungeon is huge and filled with traps. There are monsters everywhere, considering the dungeon is stretched to the underground. According to some information, there's a chance that this dungeon is connected to an underground nest. And this nest is connected to somewhere else." Agata explained with a serious expression while looking at the report.
"Hmm? Is that the reason why there are so many monsters inside the dungeon?" Theo asked.
"It seems to be that way." Maya nodded. "Unfortunately, no matter how hard they search, no one can find the connections."
"They can't? I mean, they should have brought some technology just to check whether there's an underground cave or path, right?"
"Yes. Even so, it's impossible to find it." Maya paused for a moment. "But that place has a powerful energy signature inside. This is why they're allowing the public to excavate this place.
"The government wants them to find this energy signature. They believe this energy signature is the greatest treasure hidden inside the place."
"Hmm? Why don't they send their own elites? I'm sure their elites are far better than normal people like us."

"It was at this time the monsters began to appear. The previous empty dungeon was soon filled with monsters and killed all those people. The government sealed that place again, but the monsters soon disappeared as if knowing they were in danger.
"They had sent multiple Mythical Rank Experts, but eventually they gave up because they only found there was massive energy inside the dungeon but unable to locate it.
"To be honest, it was better to destroy the entire dungeon, but the government chose not to destroy any structure in this place, so there could be more research about it. And it might even become a tourist spot in the future… Something like a museum or a national park.
"Hence, the government opened the area for the public. Not only could it allow the people to gain opportunity and some levels, but they also made themselves look generous by granting them the right to use this dungeon. And this is the current situation of the dungeon.
"Obviously, there are thousands of monsters inside the dungeon that seem to appear from nowhere endlessly.
"There are a few soldiers who are keeping their eyes while waiting for a great change, but there is no progress. So, they currently treat it as a leveling dungeon." Agata explained according to the record.
"Well, you've prepared." Maya widened her eyes and made a weird smile, not knowing whether to be happy or not.
"It's my job," Agata replied with a serious expression.
Theo thought for a moment and asked, "So, that's the reason for that conspiracy theory that leads to an underground nest."
"Yes. But then again, the monsters are undead like zombies, skeletons, and other stuff. The real answer might be different."
"I see." Theo nodded and asked, "What if we find something good?"
"It's yours," Maya answered without hesitation.
After a while, they finally came out of the forest.
"Well, that's the place." Maya pointed at the structure in front of them as they had finally arrived.
The structure was located in the middle of the plain, surrounded by trees. So, it was easy for them to locate it the moment they came out of the woods.
The structure itself had black color as it was made of dark bricks, making it look eerie from the outside.
This rectangular building wasn't that eye-catching from the outside and there was only one floor on the surface.
Theo frowned as he could see several people waiting outside. There was a small post outside the dungeon and a few people were lining up in front of that post.
"What's that?"
"The government post. We need to register there first because they need to record who dies and who doesn't. After all, the fatality rate of this place is around 20 percent. And almost all of their corpses can't be recovered… They might have turned into undead probably."
"That's quite high. One out of five people dies…" Theo frowned.
"Scared?" Maya smirked.
"Nah. I just want to make sure that you're not afraid of ghosts." Theo shrugged.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Heh."
They went to the post to register.
"That…"
"Isn't that Maya Hamilton? The young billionaire…"
"Next to her should be Theodore Griffith."
Obviously, their appearances immediately startled the people here, never expecting them to see someone that famous here.
Neither Maya nor Theo could be easily seen in public, so it was normal for them to make this kind of scene. If only they knew that Agata was the assistant that followed them, they would have created a bigger scene.
While Maya was signing them up, Theo found something strange. "Hmm?"
He looked at the people in front of them and realized all the seven people who were inside the post were Supreme Rank Monsters.
'Well, this place is filled with monsters near the Supreme Rank… And in fact, there must be many Supreme Rank Monsters hiding, so it's normal for them to station high-level Supreme Rank Experts here," Theo thought while observing them.
Meanwhile, they seemed to be observing them as well and asked Maya, "Are you sure you want to go with this group? There are many Supreme Rank Monsters inside. Although their levels are not that high, they're still Supreme Rank Monsters."
"That's precisely the reason. We're coming here to be one as well." Maya smirked and signed the paper before handing it back to him. After that, she grabbed Agata and Theo's hands and pulled them in.
Right after he entered the place, Theo found something even more interesting.
[There is an Order underground. I don't know which one, but it's either of these three. Death, Curse, Soul… Be careful.]
