Chapter-16: iron arrows shot from the iron treasure chest
Tring…..
4 hours later she woke up. Washed up and started to prepare simple meal while drinking coffee. After the meal she started to do some warm up exercises ready for dungeon reset. Also she put all the things she took out back in space.
She then walked back to the initial room where she entered and waited there for while the time in the stop watch ticked. The normal watch is still useful as he came at 00:00 at midnight and leaves at 00:00:01.
So after 100 days the time difference in the watch would only be 100 seconds. As long as she adjusts it there is no problem at all. Soon as the time in her watch 12:00, the dungeon that looked like a beast releasing a tremble. The place trembled and a flash of red light passed by.
It is like a search light and after the confirmation another white light passed by and the dungeon was reset. The room she first came in now has a slime monster that is level 1. Well it is an empty room and now has a level 1 monster.
Fortunately she stood in the corridor that is not affected after the big change. All the monsters would improve their level by 1 level while the empty rooms would get a monster of the same level as the floor that is the base level.
Ratika went over to kill the slime with a net and moved to the next room to kill another slime monster of level 2 with the net in quick motion. She stored their cores separately as levels also determine their value.
Then she went to the next room to find a skeleton monster of level 2. She kicked it breaking its bones and solved it directly. There is no treasure chest in any of these rooms. She moved to the boss room with stairs and the goblin of level 3 is present.
She still used the same trick as before and plunged it heart with the iron spear. But the monster has struggled more and Ratika has to use her body weight to hold it in its place before it finally died.
The treasure chest in the room has been upgraded to iron treasure chest and she did not open it instead she went to kill the monsters in other rooms. The hole of secret room she made is closed completely and there is no trace of it.
She would check to see if there is any secret room here again later. She killed another 2 skeletons and 1 slime monster. The empty room of origin of Robert refreshed a skeleton instead of a slime monster.
Ratika was slightly disappointed by this as the slime monster core is useful compared to the useless skeleton. Ratika collected the sacks dropped by these monsters and returned back to the stairs room to check the goblin that is wearing bronze chain around its neck.
She took it and checked carefully. The goblins are smelly creatures so when checking she even put on special gloves that are disposable. After that she discarded the goblin monster and went to the iron treasure chest.
She picked it lock quickly with her experience and "CLICK…" the lock opened. She used the iron spear to slowly open the locked box from a distance. As soon as the top of the box is opened there is sudden sound
"Sui… Sui…"
"Tluck… Tluck…"
Ratika saw two iron arrows shot at two different directions and went to pierce the stone walls perfectly. They pierced so perfectly that if Ratika was shot then it would be shot at vital areas directly.
She can tell so because they shot in that direction where her heart and head are present. If hit they would have killed her before she can make a sound. It is quite dangerous. She did not get close to it instead she waited and knocked the iron box times the metal spear.
Then she went to check the contents. She got two minor healing potions and a jumbo pack of chicken biryani along with a 2.25L coke with it. Other than these things she got a set of bow and arrows. The bow is a long one and she doesn't know how it actually fit in the box.
In the quire there are 5 arrows with strong metal tips. There are no added buffs for these bow and arrows. She just kept them. The sacks from previous killing are taken out and started to count the spoils.
The food and water has improved with double quality and one of them even gave her 5 skewers of kebab that is steaming hot with strong spicy smell. She put it carefully in space with bright smile. She can cook well and she can eat even better.
With the things obtained she started the search mode while noting down all the things she found along the way along with mapping the area. Mapping one floor would not give her any bonus or skill. She has to persist and meet the requirements to get the skill.
With the monsters killed she went to each place and hit the walls carefully. It is also a kind of practice for her for her arms to become strong. She did so and her efforts are not for nothing. She actually found a hidden room right in the opposite wall of the boss room.
She broke the wall and entered. To her shock there is a slime monster inside that is only level 1. She killed it easily and collected it core. Then she checked the room carefully because there is no treasure box or anything in the room.
After a long search she did not find anything on the walls instead she felt that one place on the floor is not like a rocky area. She quickly lit up a torch and checked it to find a small patch of sand. She took out a shovel to dig.
