Farming Inside The Dungeon - Chapter 67

– Morningwood Dungeon-

Since Ray still didn’t know that the live broadcast function was active, the monsters inside could see what happened from Ray’s perspective. And now, they were gathering together and watching Ray being okayed by old man grey kike watching some K-Drama.

” Coop!” { Stupid!}

” Coop-Coop!” { Dumbass!}

” Oh, is it the beginning of the plot for counterattack of the bullied junior?”

” That grey-haired bastard dares to place his sword on Papa’s neck, Bintang will kill him so Papa will praise Bintang!”

” …. ”

” Why are you always about kill there, kill here? Don’t you have any other vocabulary than kill?”

” Hehe, you just don’t know. Papa always praises Bintang when Bintang kills someone else, so that’s what Bintang gonna do.”

Freed and the chickens: O_O

Well, the root of this problem was from when Ray took Bintang in the experience Dungeon. Over there, Ray taught Bintang to kill the goblins and always praised her when she could kill one of the Goblin, making Bintang believe that Ray would be happy if she killed someone hostile to him.

. . . . . . .

Back to Ray and the others who are still clueless about the broadcast function, Ray’s face was now red with shame because of Edward’s explanation.

He really never thought that he had just been played by the old man.

The old man’s act was so convincing that it made Ray believe that the old man can really see through him, never considering that it was all an act.

He wanted to find a hole to hide his head, but soon, a group of people came and took the attention from Ray.

” What a rowdy bunch of bastard, don’t you know that we are trying to get some rest?”

” Yeah, cannon fodders should just keep their mouth shut and follow us quietly.”

The sound of a male and female resounded in the lobby, and everyone immediately shifted their attention to them.

Even Ray, who had been embarrassed before, quickly calmed down and looked in the direction of the voice.

Other than the male and female pair in the front, there were three other people behind them.

Ray was about to turn on the appraisal function. However, when he remembered the incident with old man Grey before, Ray immediately stopped his impulse. He was afraid that it might cause another misunderstanding and create a conflict between the two parties.

Secretly, Ray started to communicate with the system to ask whether they could find a solution for this problem.

‘ System, can you save the data of the people scanned by the appraisal skill?’

[ DING!!! Affirmative host, by paying 2000 DM Currencies, you could save the data of people appraised by the appraisal skill. Furthermore, if you purchase it today, you will gain another benefit of a random 500m teleporter. Please take your time and think carefully ^_^]

” …. ”

Why did the system now sound more like an MLM seller, Ray thought.

Still, he didn’t think twice and quickly chose to spend 2000 DM to purchase this function.

Saving the others information is really useful, especially when you can access them everywhere, making it a portable awakeners dictionary for Ray. Other than that, this function could also help Ray to save his energy during the battle. One of the reasons that Ray didn’t appraise the Mahkota’s heir before was that because he was afraid that it would consume his energy, making it a bit insufficient for the battle.

Now, Ray could just appraise everyone before the battle started, save them and check them when they were about to enter a battle.

Next, Ray started using appraisal on each and every person in the lobby. Appraising one person, close the information tab, and move to the next person until everyone in the lobby has been appraised by him.

However, when it was only the last person left, Ray suddenly felt a chill on his spine.

He looked in the direction of the last person and found that it was a beautiful girl, a member of the group that had just come and taken everyone’s attention.

At a closer look, Ray saw that she was a pretty tall woman about 170 cm with fair skin, red eyes, and an overall elegant appearance. She has long straight hair, tied up in a single ponytail. Her hair is black with a shade of red, and if it were to let loose, it should have reached her knees.

Her temperament made her look very cold and aloof, but what made Ray surprised was that this girl turned her head and looked at Ray the moment he used the appraisal skill, making him feel a new unprecedented danger.

‘ Did she just notice the appraisal skill… No! Keep calm Ray, it might only be a coincidence.’

Ray tried to keep himself calm and didn’t avoid eye contact. The two exchanged gazes for a while, but Ray felt like it was forever.

His hands started to get sweaty as he could feel that the other side was a lot more powerful than him. Fortunately, the eye contact didn’t last long,  and after some time, the woman seemed to lose interest and turned her face away from Ray.

*

‘*Sigh* Finally..’

Ray sighed a relief as he felt a big crisis had been avoided. He closed the information tab and didn’t even bother to check the name of the woman, only waiting for the moment he returned to his room to check the gain of today’s appraisal.

The group meeting soon started as the male and female pair who come now took the lead and began explaining their strategy.

There were about twenty awakeners here, and for tomorrow’s exploration, it would be divided into four big groups, one led by the male and female pair, one by Edward, one by old man Grey, and the last was led by the woman which Ray had just appraised before.

Ray had no right to speak for this meeting as his status was just as a lower level awakened, and he could only listen to the others speak about their thoughts and strategies.

Nevertheless, it was already good enough for Ray. He was not the type that likes to stand up and find enemies at times like this, and his experience when he hadn’t got the DM system was a lot worse than this.

Never mind a lower level awakener. Ray at that time was even treated worse than a porter. He was just there as a subject for the others to mock and glorify themself. Still, Ray was able to hold on and continue his job as an awakener to help to sustain the orphanage.

Now that he was treated as a normal awakener, Ray had no complaint in his heart and decided to listen seriously.

As time passed, the meeting eventually entered the final phase. The other awakeners had finished divulging information about the Lawang Sewu Dungeon, and now was the time to choose their group member.

Actually, Ray didn’t really have any worry about this. He was pretty sure that he would be on Edward’s team. But then an incident happened, and Ray was left speechless.

When the group leader was about to choose their member, that woman came forward and said something that made everyone feel like they were dreaming.

” Do I need to say it once more? I want this guy in my team.” The woman coldly said while pointing at Ray.

NANI!!!!!

Everyone looked really dumbfounded, and even Ray, who was the main character of all this, rubbed his eyes a few times, doubting what he heard just now.

Ray looked at Edward, and seeing this guy had a silly expression on his face, Ray knew that his fate was already sealed.

Edward raised a thumbs up at Ray, like saying, “I will always support you, bro,” and left the scene with four other members that he randomly picked.

” …. ”

A few minutes later, after everyone finished picking up their member, each group leader left with their selected member, and Ray obviously followed the cold woman. Even though he still felt a bit annoyed with Ed, he was a professional and would definitely do the job as stated in the contract.

His contract stated that he must follow the arrangement of the top-ranked awakeners, and since this was what they had decided, Ray had no choice to follow it.

The Cold woman brought Ray and three other women to the hotel restaurant, and after a bit of introduction, she told Ray and the other to go back to their room and rest.

. . . . . . .

Ray arrived at the bedroom which was provided to him and immediately jumped to the bed.

The event today had made his heart feel like riding a roller-coaster. From being duped by the old man to being chosen as a team member by the cold woman.

It really feels like a dream if he thinks that he was still a level-three awakener almost a month ago, scraping money by adventuring through a low-level dungeon.

The DM system had changed his life, and without it, he would certainly not be here today.

Ray closed his eyes seems like to be lost in thought, and when he opened it once more, determination had already filled his eyes.

‘ Okay, that’s enough reminiscing. I was not strong enough to be that lenient, and now, let’s the check the gain of today’s appraisal first.’

He straightened back his body and proceeded to sit down. His eyes focused, and he asked the system to display the gain from appraisal today.

‘ System, please display all the information I got from today’s appraisal.’

[ DING!!! Affirmative host. Please wait a minute.. The system will sort it based on it’s relevance.]
