A message panel appeared on the core. So the founding was successful. I didn’t even need to recite a spell or anything.
And that is mission complete. I’ll check the new sets a little later.
A light shone on my left arm. Even with my hoodie’s sleeve over it, the light was visible. I pulled up my sleeve and saw a golden bracer generating onto my arm. I don’t notice it, but everyone's gaze is focused on me. But not for long as their gazes turn to something in front of them.
So Laura also got an upgrade. That’s nice. Was that it or is there something more?
I don’t see anything else. I turn around and notice some are staring at me and others are looking at something in front of them. Everyone is silent. Wonder what they are looking at.
Alice was the one to break the silence. “I unlocked an extra skill.”
“I did as well.” The baron continued.
“So did I.” Zay said.
I take a look around. Did they all get an extra skill for assisting me in founding a dungeon?
“Did everyone get an extra skill?” I ask. Everyone is nodding in response. Founding a dungeon is super effective. Or maybe everyone got a skill because we used a high ranking core.
(It is normal for everyone involved in founding a dungeon to gain a skill. For everyone to gain an extra skill is more rare, but not unheard of.) Laura explained to me. Her voice is still just as angelic as it was earlier. At least the upgrade didn’t break her voice. I hope it didn’t break her at all.
“So… What now?” I ask no one in particular.
“...” I think everyone needs a little more time to process everything.
(Master I recommend taking a look at this dungeon's abilities. You can do that with your ‘Dungeon Founder’ skill.) Laura was the one who had things already figured out. She is an overachiever.
(How do I use it?) I ask her.
(Just like you use your ‘Pack Opener’. You can just think about using it, or open it through your status.) Laura explained.
(Well let’s just open up my status to see if anything has changed.) I think.
I gained a lot more mana. My defense also increased. Does getting skills get me more stats? I don’t think language comprehension gave me any, but if pack opener gave me defense that would make sense. I did have abnormally high defense at level 1. Pack opener might boost my defense.
I open up the Dungeon Founder skill.
So I have a stupid sub menu that does nothing. I mean what is the likelihood that I found another dungeon? I think even with the system missions it is small. Well let’s open this dungeon’s info.
So… I don’t understand this at all. I guess it’s good that core status is strong and that the monsters are dead but what can I do with this.
(Master, you should start by collecting the monster corpses. Please choose the Monster Status tab.) Laura instructs me.
So it’s a tab, not just a status. I choose Monster Status and a different menu comes up.
That’s not a lot, but enough for now. I choose the absorb feature. I look towards the tunnel and see all of the goblin and kobold corpses disappear. That was nice and quick.
Let’s go back to the previous menu.
I got 9900 generation points from those monsters? Isn’t that like a huge amount. They were just goblins and kobolds. How much would that even make them worth?
(Master each goblin is worth 50 points and each kobold is 60 points.) Laura told me. So kobolds are worth more than goblins.
(Can I now make items with the dungeon?) I ask Laura.
(Yes Master. Please open the Generatable Items menu.) Laura instructed me, so like the good little student I am, I open it up.
Okay, And now I understand even less. How does this work exactly. Laura, I need your guidance again. I’m too potato for this dungeon thing.
(I don’t think Master can be a vegetable. Also Master, I think you should talk with your team first.) Laura says to me.
I look around. It seems like everyone has at least somewhat gotten over their new extra skill acquisition.
“Did you all already come to terms with getting a skill or are you still weirded out?” I ask everyone. I guess I could do it in a more gentle way, but I don’t think it matters.
“I think so.” The baron answered me. “Or at least I’m fine. But Brian, can you tell me what this ‘Card Summoner’ skill is? I have never heard of it. It does seem to be summoning magic, but I can’t tell more than that.”
It’s the same skill that I gained. Well in my case Pack opener ate it. Did we all gain the same extra skill?
“Did everyone of you gain the skill called ‘Card Summoner’?” I ask. Everyone nods.
“Well it’s not like I know for sure what it does, but I do have an idea.” I tell them.
