The Dungeon Conquerors: Journey to the Peak

Chapter 53: Ch 53: Clearing the Thirteenth and the Fourteenth Floors



The reason why Tasha chose the autumn region to search was because this region was mostly barren and had almost no leaves let alone flowers. So in such a region, if a flower was growing somewhere, she would be able to detect it easily with her extra sensitive nose.

But as the area was extremely large, she might need a lot of time.

Tasha was very confident in her nose so she was very confident that she would be able to find the flower with enough time. But after a whole day and going through the whole area several times without finding anything, her confidence was completely destroyed.

Now that her nose was not able to find the flower, Tasha started to try various other methods. First, she used her dark elemental space magic to check the whole place methodically to check if there was a hidden place somewhere.

Just like Stella, she also came to the conclusion that only an odourless flower or a sealed place could be the reason why her sense of smell was not working.

After checking the whole area once again with her space magic, she did manage to find three hidden sealed spaces but none of those spaces had the autumn special flower. But she did manage to get her hands in quite a lot of money and treasures.

After this process also turned out to be a failure, Tasha tried various different methods to find the flower but nothing really worked. So she was forced to try the most exhausting and time consuming method of thoroughly searching the whole area without leaving a stone unturned.

While she was still searching, she got two notifications in the network mentioning that both Rein and Stella had managed to find their flowers already and now they were going to meet up and search the last remaining area, which was the summer area.

This made Tasha more mad and she increased her searching pace.

At this moment of insane concentration, her instincts started to give her some kind of signal and she immediately followed her instincts. After that she found herself in front of a tree and with no flower on sight.

Tasha was extremely disappointed as it looked like her instincts had failed him but then she noticed that the tree was hollow inside after touching it.

Immediately she took a look inside and found an orange flower blooming on top of a small plant and flower bud just beside it. She noticed that just as she had expected, the flower of this plant had no smell.

Finally after so much searching, she finally managed to find the flower she was looking for. She sent a message to the network and immediately went to meet up with Rein and Tasha.

...

Rein did not try any other method since the very beginning and only depended on his reliable Eye of Truth to get the job done. He searched the snowy area very thoroughly in order to not miss anything.

This technique turned out to be useful when he discovered a hidden canyon covered by the snow. Without her being so careful, she would have definitely missed it. That canyon led to an underground area which was also quite large and so the amount of area Rein needed to search increased by a lot.

After asking her guts what if he should start searching the above area or should finish the lower area first and Rein's instincts told him to continue searching the lower area area. So he did what his instincts told him to do and very soon found a white flower with blue small points on it.

A blue coloured holo was also surrounding the flower, so it actually looked very beautiful.

Just like that, Rein was able to find the flower he was looking for. But he did not immediately leave the winter area and continued investigating it as he was sure there would still be treasures hidden here.

So only after checking the whole place for quite some time and making sure he did not forget any places to check, he left this place and went to meet up with Stella.

Stella and Rein started searching the summer area and it went better than they expected. It was almost like a coincidence but only after four days of searching and just when Tasha joined them after finding her flower, the conquerors were also able to find the last flower.

It was actually Tasha who managed to find it. She and Stella were trying out different methods to get out of a quicksand. It was a game that they were playing. Stella and Tasha had a very good relationship and they played this type of games very often.

Just when Tasha was going to use the concept of gravity to get out of the quicksand, suddenly a light smell came to her nose.

Immediately instead of getting out of the quicksand, Tasha used the gravity concept of the dark element to push herself inside the quicksand and find a light yellow coloured flower which was the summer special flower they were searching for.

After finding all four of the flowers, now it was time for them to think of a way to make them bloom. After checking the flowers, Rein judged that the buds would be naturally blooming only after 5 years, so they needed to find an artificial way to make it bloom quickly.

There were several magic spells that could make a flower bloom. But these plants were special magical plants and normal blooming spells were useless on them. Rein understood why this floor was so time consuming to clear.

The dungeon master was trying to buy time by giving them a very complex floor as only with enough time he would be able to recover from the current disadvantageous situation.

But Rein was not just going to make his plan come to fruition. After analysing the structure of the flowers with his Eye of Truth, Rein started to develop a new light magic spell which would be able to mature even magical flowers like these.

The easiest way to focus more on the time law but only focusing on it would make the spell less effective.

After a little bit of research Rein found out that if he made the light magic spell to have 78.28 percent time law, 21.12 percent creation law and the rest of the 0.6 percent to be fate law then it was showing the best result.

Just like that Rein was able to create a spell which was a perfect solution to their current problem.

Creating a new spell was not an easy thing to do. Even for insanely talented mages, they at least needed several weeks to create even the most basic spells. But Rein just took 2 days to create a law level spell like it was nothing. He was truly a mind blowing genius.

Then the conqueror followed the instructions and brought the newly bloomed flowers to the platform where they appeared on this floor. Then when the Underwater palace appeared, they immediately entered it.

Just as Rein had speculated, the underwater palace was also filled with mechanisms which were not really dangerous but the conquerors needed to spend a lot of time to get past them. It included puzzles, mazes, riddles and more.

Stella was the one who was doing most of the work here while Rein and Tasha were supporting her.

Even though they tried to solve all the problems as soon as possible but the dungeon master used the strategy of numbers against them to make their clearing delay as much as possible. So the conquerors needed to spend a little over one whole month to clear this whole floor.

Which was quite longer than what they had expected.

After clearing the thirteenth floor, next it was fourteenth. Just like the twelfth floor, the dungeon master was unable to make this floor challenging for the conquerors as the amount of time he was able to buy on the thirteenth floor was not enough.

So the fourteenth floor was a normal floor with five green grade transcendental monsters guarding it. This floor was a snow covered floor with a very cold temperature.

The cold here was also like a law of this floor, so all the members of the conquerors needed to wear items to take care of the cold to challenge it.

The type of monsters found here were very diverse. All the five green grade bosses had their tribes and they were the main monsters roaming this floor.

The five bosses were a Crystal Scorpion, a Yeti like ape, a Snow wolf like monster, a fox monster capable of creating mirage and illusions and finally a large whale who swam in the snow.

The battles were easy for the conqueror but still they had a lot of fun. The snow wolf and Tasha's Primal Beast form has a wolf vs wolf confrontation. Looking at two massive wolves, one pure white and another one having dark colour was very cool.

Then Stella took care of the yeti and Rein took care of the Crystal Scorpion alone. Then the girls request to have a fighting date with Rein so they team up for the remaining two bosses. Rein teamed up with Tasha for the fox and he did the same with Stella to defeat the whale.

All in all they spent a fun time clearing this floor.

Just when that, the conquerors were done with conquering even the fourteenth floor. The dungeon conquest was quickly reaching its end.
