Rise of the Blood Sovereign - Chapter 60 Adventurer Guild and its Power

60  Adventurer Guild and its Power

Lyle started talking about what he saw inside the dungeon next, most of the adventurers here had cleared the dungeon once or twice at least in the past, and they would be able to notice anything weird after Lyle spoke.

They were unable to enter the dungeon, however.

Dungeons classified humans when they tried to get inside. Some allowed for multiple realms to enter, just like the more powerful dungeons which had Silver and Golden Core monsters inside.

But those that had monsters below the Bronze Core would never allow anyone that had managed to become a Bronze Knight to enter. Even Golden Knights would still be unable to enter as the power of the mana vein was not something to be underestimated.

Titled Knights had the ability to enter for a brief period of time before being forced to leave, while those above could enter and stay inside such dungeons for as long as they wished to as they were powerful enough to contend against the mana vein.

That was why the adventurers that had come here were so eager to hear from Lyle. He and Adam were the first ones to enter the dungeon ever since it changed, which turned out to be today as some people had entered it yesterday and had only noticed that there were about 2 to 4 more ogres present inside than usual.

Such a difference was nothing special, but from what Lyle had told them, there seemed to be about 10 more ogres compared to the usual numbers, and a couple was definitely stronger than normal, especially the chieftain that waited at the very end.

They couldn’t be certain that such powerful ogres would appear every single time a team entered the dungeon, so they were planning on getting 2 or 3 top-tier adventurer teams to go inside and explore a bit more.

Nothing that Lyle had told them was out of the ordinary, the size of the dungeon, the things present inside of it, everything was just as it should be.

The only difference was the number and strength of the ogres.

Perhaps later on there would be more changes, the dungeon had just started changing anyway.

It might even evolve and become a dungeon fit for Bronze Knight to enter, or it might simply stay at the peak below the Bronze Knight realm.

No matter what exactly happens, one thing was certain, and that was that things were about to change drastically.

With the dungeons changing and monsters even coming out of them, they were now many times more dangerous.

There was no sign before a monster came out of the dungeon, which means that an unassuming party of adventurers might walk toward the entrance, only to be met with a fierce monster just as they were about to enter.

The shock from something like that happening could stop them from doing anything for some time, which could easily result in casualties.

They couldn’t allow something like that to happen.

“Dammit, first it was the mana rising, then monsters becoming stronger, and now even dungeons are changing, evolving, becoming more and more dangerous.” The leader of the group said with anger visible on his face.

“If things continue like this, then how the hell are we supposed to keep people safe, the casualties that the adventurer teams are going through are higher than ever before, and that was before the dungeons changed.”

“Sir, should we perhaps stop people from entering the dungeons for a while, at least for a couple of days?” One of the Bronze Knights carefully asked the man as the latter sighed deeply.

“We won’t stop anyone, but we will tell them what is happening, if any of them still decide to go in, then so be it.” The leader said. n)-𝑂–𝔳/-𝑒)-𝒍))𝔟/-I-.n

“I know that all of you believe that denied access is the best thing to do right now, but all of you have been hand-picked by the guild ever since you were young, you never went through the same hardships as the average adventurer teams, those guys hunt monsters and clear dungeons in order to get enough money to survive, if we were to stop them all from fighting, then there would definitely be some that try to sneak in as a last resort, unable to wait any longer because their funds were gone.”

The other adventurers all stared at the leader of the group before nodding at him.

Just like he had said, they were all hand-picked talents that had been raised by the adventurer guild since they were young. Just like many other organizations and armies, the adventurer guild also had its own troops.

The troops were of course adventurers and they specialized in killing monsters and bringing back materials, cores, and more.

In case somebody was to try and attack a branch of the guild, each of the larger branches had a special troop stationed there.

Nobody knew who they were or what they looked like. They were just like ordinary adventurers most of the time, simply doing missions, taking care of monsters nearby, and such.

But if the branch was ever to be put in danger, if anybody was to attack it, the ‘Blood Enders’ would show themselves.

They were a special army that the adventurer guild had, one whose very identity was kept a secret by the various branch leaders and higher-ups.

Even the methods of how they were trained, how they were raised, and how the guild picks them up, none of them were available to anybody.

One thing was certain, however. The Enders were powerful, incredibly powerful.

Each of them was stronger than others in the same realm and they could fight against multiple people at the same time. Their weapons and armor were all blood red and would be soul-bound to them, not allowing anyone else to use them.

The Enders always had their armor and weapons with them, but nobody knew just how they hid it as they would be able to equip them instantly.

Even with the help of a spatial ring, something like that would be impossible, so most people believed that the Enders had special arrays on their weapons and armor that allowed them to be hidden inside their bodies, a high-level method that existed in the world for quite some time.

The leader of the group nodded at the others before a couple of them made their way back with Lyle, Adam, and the group of adventurers. Most of the adventurers stayed behind to ensure that no ogre would escape the dungeon and attack anyone nearby.

Even though there were only a few villages that could be found around the city of Linston, some still existed. They were usually farming villages, but there were also a couple that was near some of the dungeons, using the dungeons as a means to earn money.

They didn’t enter dungeons, but they did provide food and accommodations to adventurers that came there. Since they were only a short walk from the dungeon, many adventurers that planned on clearing the dungeon a couple of times would stay there since it was much more convenient than in the city.

Since the monsters from those dungeons could also potentially escape, one Silver Knight was sent to sprint full speed back to the city and report the situation before a couple of Bronze Knights made their way to the villages.

One Bronze Knight would be enough to deal with any ogre that escaped the dungeon, so only two were left in front of this one while the rest of the team scattered and made their way to other dungeons.

Only two dungeons had monsters that were of the Silver Core realm, so the leader of the party and the other Silver Knight made their way over to them. The two of them would be able to deal with some Silver Core monsters, but they would need reinforcements to arrive if they wanted to keep the destruction level low.

If too many monsters appeared, then the two would have no other choice but to flee to the village and attempt to evacuate as many people as they could before the monsters arrived.

The city wasn’t that far away, and with the speed of a Silver Knight individual, it would only take a couple of minutes to get there. The reinforcements would soon follow and wait at the dungeons.

Since a minotaur had escaped from one of the dungeons, there was already a squad of Silver Knights present there.

Minotaurs were Golden Core monsters, and they were usually the final enemy of the dungeon, they were also the most powerful monster that one could find in all of the dungeons near Linston.

All of the minotaurs inside had just entered the Golden Core realm and a group of 7 Silver Knights would be able to deal with one, but they had to be incredibly careful and powerful in order to do so.

The minotaur also rarely appeared inside the dungeon and one would usually have to fight a peak Silver Core monster at the end of the dungeon, depending on the team, the appearance of the minotaur would either be a blessing or a curse.

The body parts and core of the minotaur were of very high quality and were quite expensive, unfortunately for the adventurers, they would be unable to take the body parts, and only the core would be left.

As for the weaker groups that encountered the minotaur, they would usually attempt to flee or they would be killed by the mighty monster.

The rise of mana and the changes the dungeons were going through was definitely what made the one who had attacked the caravans escape.
