[A dungeon has been discovered]
[The beings of other realms possess diverse habits as varied as their kinds]
[So races have adaptive abilities that allow them to survive in any environnt, while others may find lucky resemblances to their holand in new surroundings]
[Yet, so races find the new world’s environnt extrely unpleasant]
[They have decided to alter the environnt to suit their tastes]
[This is a clear act of invasion]
[Do not tolerate this.]
The system ssage referred to the monsters as “beings of the other realm.”
It seems the sudden appearance of these monsters is not due to so strange experint on Earth’s creatures, but rather they are beings from a different world that we were unaware of.
‘That’s quite an important piece of information. But…’
More significant is the line that follows: ” They have decided to alter the environnt to suit their tastes.”
The implication is clear – terraforming.
Remodeling the unsuitable environnt to make it suitable for their survival.
The monsters we’ve encountered so far, while formidable, have often been similar in many ways to Earth’s creatures.
Despite not being native to this planet, they adapted to the earthly environnt and started hunting humans.
“But it seems there are also monsters that cannot adapt to this environnt.”
“Perhaps the ones we’ve seen so far are the minority. The majority of monsters may have died out, unable to adapt to this world.”
Those monsters unable to adapt to Earth’s environnt – so may have perished without being able to adjust, while others are actively trying to reshape the environnt to suit their needs.
And the result of that is the dungeon.
‘So, this entire subway station has been remodeled?’
A subway station built with the taxpayers’ money.
If it had been completed normally, even us soldiers stationed nearby could have used it.
But now these monsters have simply taken over the place, remodeling it to their liking.
“How arrogant.”
This remodeled space of the monsters is unable to adapt to Earth – it’s likely an unfavorable environnt for us, who have adapted to this world.
But in this world,
We cannot shrink back in fear of the risks.
On the Dooms Day, when the monsters stord the restaurant – if I had run away in fear, I wouldn’t be standing here now.
Only those who boldly grow their strength will earn their right to survive.
Conquering this dungeon will be the sa.
As with all ga dungeons, the greater the risk, the more it will help us grow.
Leaving behind the tense-looking soldiers,
I stepped forward, entering the black barrier.
To properly show these monster fellows who the true owner of this illegally occupied place is.
Swoosh-
The black curtain felt like nothing more than a simple shadow.
I passed through it effortlessly, without even a sense of touching anything.
But,
I could imdiately feel the fact that I had entered the dungeon.
[You have entered the dungeon!]
[Normal Dungeon – Spawning Ground of Black Sand Larvae]
[Famous as pests due to their unique appetite and habits, this is the breeding ground of the black sand larvae.]
[It is the spawning ground of the black sand larvae which are widely known as pests due to their unique eating habits]
[Unlike their scattered populations across the universe, the spawning of black sand worms requires a complex set of environntal factors to be in place.]
[Their mothers have decided to decorate this area as their own holand, for the sake of their offspring’s spawning]
[This environnt is not friendly to the human race]
[All stats will be slightly decreased]
“Huh.”
The abrupt environntal change.
Maybe it’s due to differences in gravity or air pressure.
I felt my body becoming heavy, accompanied by a slight discomfort.
The air also seed different from that of Earth.
Breathing felt a bit strenuous.
There was even a dry, prickling heat that pricked my skin.
It took so ti for my body to adapt to the sudden environntal change.
After weathering the shock of the abrupt change,
I opened my eyes that had been tightly shut.
And beheld the scene unfolding before .
“A desert, is it?”
Instead of the under-construction subway platform there was an expansive dark sand desert stretching out beyond the darkness.
Starting with at the forefront, the guild mbers who had been following also entered the dungeon.
“Ugh.”
“What, what is this? It’s hard to breathe here.”
“My body feels so heavy…”
“Sit down and wait for your bodies to adjust. It’ll get familiar soon enough.”
The sudden environntal change burdened even the awakened soldiers’ bodies.
But perhaps because they had transcended the human stage after just a little wait, their bodies adapted, and they could endure fairly well.
I subtly shook my arm.
I felt a slight unfamiliar creakiness.
‘Hmm. Even with adaptation, movent is still difficult.’
The environnt here must be sowhat different from the Earth we live on.
[This environnt is not friendly to the human race]
[All stats will be slightly decreased]
According to that ssage, this space itself is inflicting a debuff on us.
A debuff – I’ve experienced that before from enemies’ poison-based attacks.
But this is the first ti I’ve experienced a debuff just from being in a place.
No wonder Taejun had cautioned against conquering this place.
As I waited for the rest of the squad to enter, I observed the surrounding space.
‘The ceiling is just like the subway, huh.’
The vision isn’t great.
We were relying only on the light of flares.
But upon closer inspection, traces of the under-construction subway could be seen here and there.
The issue lies not in the ceiling, but the ground.
Only the small patch of ground our squad mbers were standing on maintained the subway’s form.
I gingerly stuck my hand into the ground beyond that.
Swoosh…
The texture when I grasped it, and the way it flowed through my fingers,
suggested this was so kind of sand, likely different from what we know.
“Phew. Sergeant Sin, all mbers have entered.”
“First, have Uijun and the support team quickly recover the squad’s condition. Then we’ll decide how to proceed with the conquest.”
In that mont,
far into the sand desert,
‘Sothing moved.’
Maybe it’s because my stats have recently increased.
My senses have beco peculiarly more acute than before.
And that sense sent a warning.
“Everyone.”
“Huh? Yes?”
“Assu battle formations.”
“…!”
Many soldiers had not yet fully recovered their condition.
But the mont the order was given, they promptly rose and readied their weapons.
Shh shh shh ssss
Sothing…
was approaching, parting the sand desert.
It seed to be more than just one or two.
And then-
