The villainous young master just wants to live a Buddhist-like life.

　He took the sphere, played with it in his palm for a moment, and then suddenly paused: "Could this thing be the eyeball of that bronze behemoth?"

　Meow Meow slightly opened her eyelids and grinned.

　Dak shuddered, then got used to it.

　"Let's call it the Bronze Eyeball, let me see..."

　The eyes of this bronze behemoth contain the essence of the bronze behemoth and have a value somewhere between that of the insect tree and the cat grass.

　But this is from the perspective of the "Gate of Truth".

　From Dac's perspective, its value is even higher.

　Because this thing is clearly a treasure similar to a "mechanical core", it can be used as the core of a golem!

　With this "bronze eye," he no longer needed to search for another core when learning golem crafting.

　"Good stuff, all good stuff."

　Dak murmured to himself, a look of delight on his face.

　……

　After resting for nearly fifteen minutes in the "Bronze Chamber," Darke set off again.

　Instead of rushing to find treasure, he began to enjoy the nighttime atmosphere of the underground city.

　At this moment, the only magical spirits left around him were Tailmon, Leomon, Impmon, and Reiboumon.

　The group walked through the silent, cold maze, experiencing a peculiar sense of solitude.

　The only annoyance is the nocturnal monsters that pop up every now and then.

　But they continued to steadily approach the entrance to the staircase from the fourth to the fifth floor.

　After they left, Bobby and Simon cautiously slipped into the "Bronze Chamber".

　At first, the two were willing to help. But after realizing that the monster horde posed no threat to Dark, they hid themselves.

　He waited until Dak led the team away before he finally poked his head out.

　Of course, their goal this time was to "find a bargain"...

　Although Dark Dimon seems to have a special ability to find treasure, the value of something is relative.

　What is completely useless to Dark might be given extra value in their hands?

　For example, the bronze statues that can be seen everywhere inside those halls!

　"I need some time."

　Under Simon's strange gaze, Bobby took out a knife and a bag and excitedly scraped some copper powder off each of the bronze statues.

　He mixed the copper powder together, packed it into a small bag, and was in a good mood.

　If I had to say, this must be the most valuable thing he obtained after entering the dungeon!

　……

　Half an hour later.

　When the "Greed III" cooldown was complete, Dark still hadn't found the staircase to the fifth floor.

　After thinking for a moment, he used "Greed III" again to evolve "Trash Slime" into "Greedy Slime II", and used "Greedy Nature" to search for the Holy Sword and Treasure Chest.

　But this time, neither of them succeeded.

　As you delve deeper into the underground city, each level becomes increasingly spacious.

　"Greedy Nature" from "Greedy Slime II" is clearly insufficient to cover this entire layer.

　This is why Dark always searches for "Holy Sword" after traveling a certain distance.

　There are still countless treasures hidden within the maze, treasures that no one has yet discovered.

　He was only searching within the scope he could find.

　After this failure, he did not continue searching, but instead focused all his efforts on finding the entrance to the fifth floor.

　The glowing moss in the cracks of the wall was already extremely dark, and if it weren't for the illumination from the phantom insects, it would have been impossible to move an inch.

　Although Impmon looks like a bat, it does not have radar in its familiar form. It still relies on its eyes to see, but it has some night vision.

　Similarly, Gatomon and Leomon also have a certain degree of night vision.

　Emmm...

　If that's the case, then isn't Dark himself the only one who's stuck in a difficult situation?

　He scratched his head and continued on his way.

　Along the way, countless monsters lurked in the darkness, and the lion beast was showing signs of fatigue after a long battle.

　We need to hurry.

　An hour later, Dark started to get agitated.

　But shortly after he thought he was completely lost, the stairs leading to the lower level appeared before him.

　There is another village in the dark.

　Life, life, life, life.

　……

　Dark descended the stairs, groped his way forward, and three minutes later emerged from the passageway, seeing the reception room on the fifth floor, which was the safe zone.

　There are fewer people in the fifth security zone than in the fourth.

　Next to the magic marker, there were only a few tents pitched, all of which were still lit up.

　Upon hearing Dak's footsteps, only two students poked their heads out of the tent, glanced at him, and then quickly retreated.

　The magical marker on the fifth floor is a hippopotamus located in the fountain.

　The hippopotamus statue rises halfway from the fountain's surface, its mouth agape, staring at a giant colorful ball used in circuses, which is quite comical.

　Dark tiptoed to the magic marker, collected it as usual, and then found an empty spot nearby to sit down.

　He will be sleeping here tonight.

　Although there was no tent or sleeping bag.

　But he has a "zoo" and a "paradise".

　Unlike regular field cards, "Zoo" and "Paradise" last for 24 hours and can be used again once they are full of magic.

　However, the "zoo" doesn't have many buildings; they're basically either cages or open-air pools. He can't possibly lock himself in a cage, can he?

　So he only presented "Paradise" at the beginning.

　There are many buildings in "Paradise" where you can rest. To match the nighttime atmosphere of the underground city, Dark decided to open a haunted house here.

　After glancing at the tents again, Dark took a deep breath and began to channel his magic.

　As "Paradise" was activated, a network of magical energy spread outwards from his toes, instantly expanding to the size of a dormitory room.

　The haunted house, adorned with colorful lights and a blood-stained sign, quietly appeared on the ground.

　Darke entered the haunted house, lit the pumpkin lantern and skull lantern, found a platform to sit on, and prepared to summon all the magical spirits to get some fresh air.

　"Boom-"

　Suddenly someone knocked on the door of the haunted house.

　……

　Tickets are here!

　[I've already updated 9,000 words today. I actually finished my 180,000-word target for this month a long time ago, but I'll keep pushing tonight! I feel like I can manage another 10,000 words and break through this August barrier!]

Chapter 582 (Seeking Monthly Tickets at the End of the Month) Paradise in the Dungeon

　In the quiet, dim night, the lights flickered, casting numerous reflections.

　Beside the hippo fountain topped with colorful balls, a sinister and terrifying haunted house stands eerily.

　The already dangerous atmosphere of the dungeon was instantly amplified with even more fear.

　Dark looked at the slightly swaying door and nodded towards Devimon.

　The little devil beast flapped its wings and flew towards the door.

　"Suck it-"

　The ghost of the haunted house suddenly flew in and ran alongside it.

　"Dong dong dong."

　The frequency of knocking on the door suddenly increased.

　Little Devimon looked disgusted, glared at the doorway, and then grabbed the doorknob and turned it open.

　The person knocking on the door suddenly saw a round bat and... a ghost! vipkanshu.com

　He gasped sharply, then forced a smile and asked, "Excuse me, is this Dark Dimon?"

　“It’s me,” Dark said, turning around.

　The person knocking on the door was a senior student with brown hair, wearing the uniform of a third-year magic academy.

　"May I come in?" the senior asked again.

　Darke laughed and said, "Of course."

　So he got up to greet the very polite senior and invited him to sit down inside the haunted house.

　The senior student held a book in his hand, looking like he was eager to learn. After entering the room, he didn't look around randomly, but sat down properly, without any airs of a first-year student.

　Dark had a good impression of him, so he asked, "What's wrong?"

　The senior introduced himself: "Let me introduce myself first. I am Ignaz Alexander, a third-year student in the Magic Academy."

　Dark nodded and said, "Yes, Senior Alexander."

　Alexander asked, "May I ask if this is a field card?"

　Dark thought to himself that this was indeed the reason for their visit, and nodded: "Sparrow Fruit."

　Alexander then carefully asked, "I noticed you deliberately limited the range when you summoned. So I wanted to ask, can you create more... um, I mean, temporary dwellings?"

　Dark paused for a moment, then quickly realized Alexander's background and smiled, "Of course. And my field pass lasts until dawn. If you need it..."

　Alexander's face lit up immediately, and he said, "Thank you so much. But, are there any buildings other than the haunted house?"

　Dark shrugged and said, "Of course, there are. I wonder how many of you there are?"

　Alexander immediately said, "I only have three people here, but I think the others won't refuse. If you're okay with it, I can go ask them. I don't have any experience living in a dungeon yet, and I think they'll be curious."

　Dark smiled and said, "No problem."

　Alexander immediately turned and went outside.

　Darko Dimon's friendliness was a pleasant surprise, making him feel good. But he couldn't understand why anyone would want to live in a haunted house.

　Just then, the white ghost from the haunted house flashed past him again, making him extremely uneasy.

　……

　And on the fourth floor.

　After nightfall, Bobby and Simon became increasingly difficult to track, and after some consideration, they began searching for the entrance to the fifth floor.

　Led by Simon, they found the staircase entrance just ten minutes after Dark and quickly entered.

　But after passing through the long passage, the two almost thought they had entered some hidden space.

　What came into view were rows of uniquely designed buildings.

　After a brief moment of suffocation, the two noticed more details.

　The ground is paved with neat bricks and stones, and there are straight streetlights on both sides of the road.

　The white light of the streetlights illuminated the entire safe zone, and the pale yellow flowers growing from the gaps emitted a faint fragrance.

　Stepping into the fragrance will give you an extremely comfortable feeling.
