Traveling alone in the Dungeon was quite boring.
However, fortunately, the scenery of the Dungeon varied, which added so fun to the boring journey.
After the Large Tree Labryinth was the Great Fall, a huge water paradise.
There were many aquatic monsters in the water here, and rivers were almost everywhere. Even walking by the side of the road, one could be suddenly attacked by appearing monsters.
"I wonder if I can directly reach the lower levels by jumping straight down from here?"
Looking down from the land on the side of the Great Fall, one couldn't see the bottom at all, but the Dungeon was connected, so there was a high probability that it connected several floors. However, if too many floors were connected, it might cause one to fall to their death.
But Takatsuki wasn't afraid; he couldn't die anyway.
"The Loki Familia should have dealt with the Floor Boss here."
Looking at the Great Waterfall, Takatsuki was a bit tempted. After all, the paths on these few floors were really difficult to traverse. If he could save ti, who wouldn't want to save ti?
Thinking this, Takatsuki replaced the dragon talisman on his equipnt with the Monkey Talisman.
Although this talisman wasn't powerful, it was very useful!
Using the power of the Monkey Talisman, he transford into a fish and entered the water.
Perhaps because it was next to the Great Waterfall, there were no monsters here, as no aquatic creature could avoid being swept away by such a strong current.
As soon as he transford into a fish and entered the water, Takatsuki felt a huge force carrying him down from the waterfall.
The feeling of falling with the waterfall in the water was different from falling in the air.
But the stimulating sensation of weightlessness was the sa.
Following the Great Waterfall, Takatsuki felt that he had passed through multiple floors. So, the fastest way to cross floors was to jump straight down.
In just half a minute, Takatsuki had already seen the lake at the very bottom.
A fish's vision is not good, but when he saw the lake, Takatsuki knew he was very close to the bottom.
The figure of Heaven's Stairway suddenly appeared, grabbed Takatsuki's body, and violently threw him out of the waterfall's range, then disappeared. Takatsuki's body flashed with light in mid-air, transforming from a fish into a falcon.
That's right, it was the falcon he had seen at Dio's place. Although he hadn't fought it, Takatsuki rembered its appearance.
With a flap of its wings, the falcon that Takatsuki had beco quickly ascended, counteracting the downward inertia, and soared in the sky of the Dungeon.
However, what floor was this?
Because he had only been falling straight down, Takatsuki had no idea what floor he had landed on, and he wasn't very familiar with the terrain of the Dungeon.
He couldn't distinguish the current floor just by relying on slight terrain features and monsters.
If it were Bell, who had been forced by Eina to cram Dungeon knowledge, he would be able to tell.
For example, the monster ahead.
Hmm?
Is there a monster ahead?
Takatsuki, still in his falcon form, suddenly noticed sothing amiss: sothing seed to be constantly flickering past him.
Is this a monster!?
Falcons are very fast, and to adapt to this high speed, they are naturally born with extrely powerful dynamic vision. Even though he was transford by a talisman, Takatsuki still gained this advantage.
Yet, even with such powerful dynamic vision, he couldn't clearly see the opponent's speed.
Is this the strength of the lower levels?
As adventurers level up, their various attributes are greatly amplified, including not just strength, speed, and stamina, but also their five senses beco more acute, and their vision improves.
Although Takatsuki possessed destructive power exceeding LV5 due to certain reasons, his basic attributes simply couldn't keep up with these adventurers.
In terms of physical ability, he was even inferior to his Shadowkhan.
Fortunately, although his basic attributes were poor, he had other ans.
Heaven's Stairway appeared beside him. Through Heaven's Stairway's eyes, Takatsuki saw the true form of the things constantly flickering past him.
They were actually extrely fast-flying red birds.
Their bodies, due to high-speed flight, were spindle-shaped, and their speed was even faster than that of bullets. It was only because Takatsuki had mostly invested his growth attributes into precision to better utilize Heaven's Stairway's abilities that he could clearly see these monsters.
Not good!
Although Takatsuki was in the form of a falcon, he was clearly not a being from the Dungeon, and the monsters of the Dungeon would attack anything not from the Dungeon.
The high-speed flying flock of birds crashed towards Takatsuki as if committing suicide.
Heaven's Stairway, King Crimson!
The King Crimson's ability on his shoulder flickered. Takatsuki instantly broke free from the constraints of ti, rapidly moved to another location, and then canceled the King Crimson's ability.
Looking at the rock wall that had been struck because he dodged, there were dense clusters of potholes on it.
Those monsters, having crashed into the wall, had self-destructed into dust, and even their magic stones were shattered by the imnse impact.
What is this thing! A suicide attack!?
Before Takatsuki could figure out the situation, the flocks of birds surged towards him again.
Heaven's Stairway, King Crimson!
Takatsuki's Stand ability activated again. This power, not belonging to this world, utterly surpassed everyone in this world when it ca to self-preservation.
In the temporal gap of ti deletion, Takatsuki watched as the dense, storm-like monsters passed through him.
Flying to the side, Takatsuki looked at these monsters with lingering fear, just a little bit more and he would have been pierced through.
While he wouldn't die, the pain was inevitable.
The Dog Talisman only grants immunity to lethal attacks and death, not to damage.
No, I need to find an exit quickly.
The attack pattern of these monsters is very fixed: they ram into their enemies at high speed.
Even if this attack leads to their own demise, they don't hesitate.
Takatsuki flapped his wings and flew downwards.
Since the air was too wide, allowing them to roam freely, he would go to the relatively narrower passages below, or even into the water.
Although it was difficult to stay underwater for long, using his high speed and the power of his Stand, he could temporarily take shelter in the water.
Just as the King Crimson's power receded, the ground behind Takatsuki was bombarded like a violent storm.
This was also because he was flying at high speed, but his speed was far too slow compared to those monsters.
Watching the 'rainstorm' constantly chasing him, Takatsuki steeled himself, made a turn in the air, and plunged into the nearby river.
The monsters, unable to turn, continued along Takatsuki's original path, plowing a deep gully into the ground.
