Who Designed This Underworld Dungeon?

Galide.

Currently a place that adventurers fear.

The blooming crimson corruption is something more terrifying than any poison. When fighting there, even a wound exposed to the faint red mist floating in the air might lead to infection. And if you happen to roll in the crimson Ionian Swamp, that feeling...

It’s absolutely indescribable.

Couple this with the grotesque monsters scattered throughout Galide; most of these monsters are infected by the crimson corruption, and every move they use against adventurers brings an accumulation of crimson corruption. Unfortunately, adventurers with weak constitutions get infected with corruption within moments.

This has led to unprecedented fear among adventurers in Galide when faced with monster group actions. If they get grazed a few more times in battle and get infected with corruption, and don’t have the corrosive moss medicine to treat the crimson corruption, what awaits them is a chronic, or rather, a swift death.

"Here, corrosive moss medicine, use it sparingly."

Galide, within an abandoned ruin.

Luluwo handed out several red small pellets to everyone, saying, "Although we still have quite a bit, each person can consume at most four today; any more and you’ll start developing resistance."

"Do you need any?" She asked, holding the corrosive moss medicine, looking towards Uffie’s group.

"We have some," Uffie shook the medicine bottles on her body and said, "Besides, we all have a somewhat special constitution, the rate of corruption accumulation on us should be slower than for you. So if you run out, come to us for more."

"Let’s help each other out." Isha gave a friendly smile, and Fanen nodded.

The team now seemed very harmonious and friendly.

Though corrosive moss medicine isn’t considered rare, its production is similar to high-grade Green Flower Grass. However, under the enormous demand from adventurers exploring Galide, it is continually in short supply; every batch entering the market gets swept away immediately.

After all, nobody would mind having too much medicine.

Yet, the corrosive moss medicine does not have a permanent effect. Upon first use, it can completely clear the crimson corruption from adventurers’ bodies, but if consumed too frequently within a short period, or if the crimson corruption is from a high-tier monster like the Venerable Rot Knight, the medicine’s effect will diminish as consumption increases, requiring a long time for the effect on the body to restore to original.

Previously, people had never encountered such drug resistance.

After much thought, people outside concluded that the crimson corruption is far stronger than the toxins encountered at Fran Fort, which is why even corrosive moss medicine cannot entirely cure it.

Monsters infected by corruption are especially fiendish, resembling deformed giant canines like tyrannosaurus, skinless, bloodied corrupted wild dogs, corruption favored capable of launching intercontinental cruise missile "insect silk" ... these monsters, whose terror levels have risen compared to previous areas, have indeed become powerful evidence of the harm of crimson corruption.

Under these circumstances, people naturally developed curiosity and a desire to explore crimson corruption.

However, at present, it is only known that this toxin was released by the Valkyrie Marionia during her confrontation with the Shattered Star General Latan. Other information remains unknown; perhaps this was something Marionia created?

One can’t imagine what situation Latan was in within the center of the infection explosion.

"Abel and Moer should be back by now; why have they been gone so long?"

Uffie looked towards the horizon but could not see the returning silhouettes for a long time, feeling somewhat worried.

"Aren’t they dragons? They’ll be fine," Fanen reassured.

It had been mentioned before that Uffie has two true dragons as disciples, however, upon arrival they got hospitalized after being beaten by the border’s Mad Dragon, and after discharge, they plunged into the Yanor Kingdom until now when the two countries connected. They returned here through the teleportation gate in Sain Dungeon, finally meeting Uffie and the others.

Fanen had been curious about the two for a long time, until recently meeting them face-to-face.

"Such distinctly characterized roles."

The group waited a while in the cleaned ruins, and finally, two silhouettes they had been waiting for appeared on the horizon. Even from afar, one could see the sturdy, powerful wings which clearly belonged to dragons, and beneath those wings was... a human body.

"Boom!"

They descended from the sky, creating a whirlwind, with their wings already retracted upon landing.

"Abel, Moer, how’s the situation?"

As the whirlwind cleared, two bald heads emerged from the crowd.

Two burly men with shaved heads, dressed only in vests and trousers, who both bore cold killer-like expressions, made a mighty entrance!

Robust physiques, strongmen attire, this was the "powerfully built physique" Luluwo had mentioned earlier!

These two were Uffie’s dragon clan disciples!

Distinguishing them relied on just one difference, Abel wore a yellow vest, Moer’s was green, each had their own style.

"...."

The two cold-faced killers paused for a moment.

"I found it first!"

"No, I discovered it first!"

"Shut up, you four-legged fat pig!"

"What’s a two-legged skinny dog yelling about?"
