Farming Inside The Dungeon - Chapter 66

– The following day –

” Are you ready, Ray?”

” Umm, all set.”

Early in the morning, Edward picked up ray from the orphanage.

The two said goodbye to Big Sis and the other little guys in the orphanage before taking the car to go to the location of Lawang Sewu Dungeon.

Lawang Sewu Dungeon wasn’t located near Jakarta, and it took about eight hours by car to reach the Lawang Sewu Dungeon.

After the era of awakening, Air and water road was not that much safe anymore. The continuous appearance of Dungeons all over the world has made a very big change in the earth’s society.

Awakeners rushed to the Dungeon and cleared it as their main job, making the big cities and country safe. However, dungeons didn’t only appear in big cities.

Many dungeons appeared in rural areas or even uninhabited islands, making it hard to track all of them. And to make it worse, if the Dungeon wasn’t cleared in specific time periods, the dungeon gate would break and cause a dungeon outbreak, releasing the monsters inside to the earth.

All this occurrence had made both the sky and water were now filled with countless danger beasts, and it would be a lot riskier to take them compared to the ground road.

Still, the appearance of the Dungeon was not without benefits. Some times after the emergence of the Dungeon, people started to realize that there was some specific dungeon that could enable them to teleport to other places.

At first, people were worried that international trade would be disturbed because the Air and water road were not safe anymore. But since people started to utilize the special Dungeon that could teleport them to other places, the international trade thrift and the problem of item smuggling were now a lot easier to handle.

The Government fully controls the specific teleportation dungeon, and without their permits, people would not be able to use the teleportation dungeon.

Ray and Edward, who are currently in the car, chatted along the road. There were only the two of them inside the car, and they would not need to bother about formalities when it was just the two of them.

In fact, Edward was offered to be in the big and luxurious car with the other top-ranked awakened of Indonesia. Still, he rejected it as he thought that he would not find a more suitable moment to chat with Ray along the way.

The relations between the two were like brothers, and even though Edward was adopted by a big family, he never treated Ray as someone lower than him.

. . . . .

Time flew when you enjoyed the moment, and without them noticing, eight hours had passed since they first entered the car, and the Lawang Sewu Dungeon was already in sight.

” Look, Ray! That is the Lawang Sewu Dungeon. One of the most popular Dungeons in Indonesia!”

Edward pointed at the big western building in front of them. Different from other Dungeon, Lawang Sewu has a really eery feeling surrounding it, and just by standing close to it, ray could feel his spine shudder.

‘ Lawang Sewu..’

Contrary to Edward, who was enthusiastic, Ray was deep in contemplation. Just like before, his danger sense screamed like mad whenever he got closer to that building, and somehow he could feel the aura of death around it.

The car stopped, and Ray and Edward came out from it. The eight hours journey using the car had also made both their mind and body tired, and they would only go into the Dungeon tomorrow, after a whole night of rest.

Edward then brought Ray to the hotel, where they would stay overnight. The other top-rank awakener has been inside first, and Edward couldn’t wait to introduce them to Ray. Besides strength, a connection was also important to an awakened, and Edward wants Ray to make his own connection.

The two walked side by side and entered a luxurious hotel. It was a five-star hotel which the Government had especially booked for the awakeners to stay overnight.

Right now, awakeners were the main force of the country, and the Government would definitely not treat them recklessly.

All the meals and accommodation were already provided, and the awakeners would only need to enter the Dungeon to get paid. Even if the dungeon exploration were deemed to be failed, most of the responsibility wouldn’t be burdened to the awakeners, and they would be still get paid. Making awakeners to be the most sought job right now.

As Ray entered the lobby of the luxurious hotel, he could already feel the powerful aura from the awakeners inside, worthy of being the top-ranked in Indonesia.

He looked to the side, where most awakeners gathered around and talked about tomorrow’s strategies, and started using his appraisal skill.

‘ Oh, if I didn’t remember wrong. One of the top ten ranks in the world is from Indonesia. Little witch.. will I be able to see her here?’

Ray didn’t know why, but he had a hunch that the little witch was a girl, and a young girl not much older than his age. The expectation of meeting one of the top rankers in the whole world had made Ray’s heart palpitate a bit. But when he eventually checked with his appraisal eyes, only disappointment came to him.

Other than a few handful people, the rest of the awakener were only at the High captain level, about level 27 to 29.

Still, it wasn’t that bad if considering that the publicly known highest rank awakeners in the world were only at the High General level, at level 48.

Ray closed his appraisal skill, a bit disappointed, but suddenly, he felt a huge amount of aura pressing him from behind.

The aura this time was incomparable from other awakeners in the room, and before Ray could even turn his head around, he could already feel a cold blade placed close to his neck.

” Kid, it isn’t polite for you to check the others’ information without them knowing.”

If the cold blade had already made Ray shuddered, the word just now really made Ray consider summoning his monsters.

The monsters were his trump card, but Ray would definitely not be stingy to summon them if it was about life and death.

Luckily, things didn’t progress to what Ray feared. The moment the cold blade was placed on Ray’s neck, Edward had already rushed in Ray’s direction and come to save the situation.

” Old man, don’t bully your junior so much!” Edward’s shout resounded throughout the lobby, and it was immediately followed by laughter.

” Hahahahah, don’t worry, Ed kiddo. I just want to test this friend of yours. His skill has somehow attracted my attention.”

The cold blade was taken off from Ray’s neck, and Ray could finally sigh a relief.

He turned his head around, only to see an old man, about fifty years old, standing behind him.

The old man had grey hairs and a beard, and a somewhat muscular body. On his right hand was the blade placed on Ray’s neck before, and from its look, the blade seemed to have gone through many battles.

” Hahaha, I’m sorry, kid. The name is Grey, or more widely known as Grey the Ashburn. You could also use your appraisal skill to check my info. I don’t really mind it.”

Ray, who saw the old man now, didn’t have any hostility toward him felt like a huge burden on his heart was lifted. He looked in the direction of the old man once more and nodded. Since the other party had said that it was okay, Ray wouldn’t be polite and quickly use the appraisal skill.

An array of information appeared in front of Ray while he used the appraisal. However, when Ray was still in focus, trying to comprehend the information of the old man Grey, Old man Grey’s laughter came and filled the whole lobby.

” Hahahahah. It seems my hunch is correct. You truly possessed the skill appraisal; what a surprise.”

Old man Grey’s words just now startled Ray. He was a bit confused before he suddenly felt like something was wrong here. Still, everything was too late when Ray noticed it.

Ray turned his head in Edward’s direction and saw Edward was shaking his head helplessly.

” ???? ”

” *Sigh* No need to be confused, Ray. You have just been scammed.”

Edward’s words just made Ray feel something was wrong here, and when he returned his gaze to the old man Grey, old man grey now had a smirk on his face.

” Hahaha, kid, you might have a strong skill, but nonetheless, you are still green.”

Old man Grey kept laughing and didn’t seem to have any intention to explain, making Ray’s face was now full of black lines. Fortunately, Edward was there to explain things to Ray.

” Well, it’s like this….”

Edward began to explain what just happened to Ray, and Ray’s face now was red with shame.

Actually, he truly was duped by the old man Grey. All the things that old man Grey said about appraisal before was just an act, and old man grey truly has no way of knowing whether Ray truly has the appraisal skill or not.

Still, Ray was a lot too inexperienced in this.. Seeing old man grey acting like that, he immediately believed old man grey’s word and used appraisal in front of everyone, digging a hole in his own feet.
