__________

"Wow, that's pretty awesome! I have gained 18 levels!!!"

Jay was extremely happy since he had indeed grown stronger and that's what he felt.

He wanted to immediately check all the materials that he had received when he was slaying them and also wanted to check out other stats of his, but due to lack of time he couldn't.

He thought it would be better if he were to see them later as he had to complete the mission as soon as possible without delaying even a second more.

"Let's go!", after saying this he dashed ahead by wearing a mask that wood prevent him from inhaling poison.

'DING DONG'

__________

-The Host Has equipped the 'POISON MASK'.

- No poison can penetrate the mask.

__________

It was an equipment which he had gained after slaying one of the evolved Bats who wasn't affected by the poison much. He had given attention only to that item so he equipped it since it was the best timing to do so.

He dashed forward at an amazing speed and had already left the first area of the dungeon and was now about to enter the second area when he suddenly paused.

"What the hell is this?", there was a lot of green slimy things fallen on the ground just before the entrance of the second area.

He turned his gazes towards his right and left only to find some skeletons of humans and other beasts lying opened.

"Uhhh... looks like all their body contents was completely melted... due to acid? Poison?"

He had to be cautious now since this was too dangerous for even an S ranked hunter if he didn't have protection.

Regardless of that he had to walk forward since he had to finish the mission right away.

He rushed forward and entered the second area.

"It's pretty bright here... I mean that's what is weird! Why is it bright here?"

He looked everywhere he could and found no source of light for now. It was not the case that the ceiling was open and it was bright due to the sun nor was it because of some crystals.

It was definitely because of some other reason.

"Uhh!!! I don't have time to be thinking about this. It's better if I just run forward!", saying this he used the skill [DASH] and started to run forward when he suddenly bumped into something.

"Huh? What the..."

Due to the bumping suddenly his vision changed and all he could see was spiders all around him!

"WHAT THE FUCK!!!?"

He shouted after seeing many black spiders who had 6 eyes and poisonous web. It seemed as if their poison had hallucinating effects which made Jay hallucinate and that's why he was seeing at the environment which was wide and was covered with light.

But jay wondered only one thing, "How? I am wearing the mask and I don't even have any wounds, so how was I affected by the poison?"

Jay was troubled by this question when suddenly the system popped up and answered the question of his.

'DING DONG'

__________

[ANSWER]

- Sound

__________

"Huh? Sound? What do you mean by that...?"

Jay was a bit confused by the answer. He took a close look at the spiders and found that they had some weird body structure which had 2 thin filaments.

The moment both of them collided, a sound was produced which was directly influencing the brain waves. This was called Psychic Poison.

"Holy shit, so this was why the mask didn't work..."

The mask was indeed great but the only it could protect against was the poison from the gas. Other than that it couldn't do anything at least for now.

"I don't know why they aren't attacking me!?"

The spiders seemed to be calm and were waiting at one common place. It seemed as if they were waiting for something.

"Let's take a look at their stats...", is what he thought after seeing them stable for some moment.

The system immediately scanned and showed him their stats whuchbsurprised Jay yet again.

"Are you kidding me? What's wrong with this dungeon?"

"Why are all the monsters here poisoned?"

Jay was now completely confused. He couldn't figure out the reason for the monsters in the dungeon to be poisoned.

"They definitely aren't poisoned because of their own poison... it seems there is something further ahead that is poisoning them..."

He again got the idea to harvest level while he was there but he had very less time.

"Sigh... there are more than 200 spiders here... I can get many levels but I don't have much time!"

He left them and dashed ahead thinking that he would slay them when he returns.

"But this is weird, I haven't found even a single one of the people who had entered earlier... where exactly are they? Are they—"

He was about to complete saying his sentence when he suddenly paused after hearing the battle sound coming from the next area.

'BAM''BOOM'

'CLANK CLANK'

There were many mixed sounds along with screams and cries.

Jay could barely hear them. He immediately rushed in only to find a pool of blood bath that was occurring.

"What is all this?"

Half of the people who had come were dead. The undeads has completely surrounded them!

Some of them were being eaten by the undeads while others were being brutally killed one by one.

The undeads looked like half Zombies and half skeleton- a type of HYBRID VARIANT.

Jay was completely shaken at the view that he was looking. Many of them had a stable life and a good family but it all ruined because they were forced to come into this place.

On top of that they were lied about the danger of the dungeon.

Jay wasn't able to imagine the faces of their family members when they would come to know about their deaths.

"Damn those hunter association bastards. Damn these zombies... I'm going to kill and destroy all of them!"

He rushes out with his anger and starts to kill the undeads one by one.

His anger was so frightening that he didn't even show a bit of mercy and slaughtered all the undeads in the most brutal way that was possible. But they were beings who were actually undead which meant that they couldn't possibly died.

No matter how many times Jay cut them or ripped them into pieces, they would come back again and again.

All he could do was delay them when suddenly he got an idea about rescuing all since everyone of them were in his way of fighting.

Amidst this he found Yuu who was fighting pretty well and was surviving till now so Jay decided to ask for the answer by questioning the system.

"Hey system, can you tell if I could use the skill [STEALTH] on others?"

He thought about helping them exit the dungeon by using the skill stealth which would allow them to pass through the walls.

__________

[ANSWER]

- Yes.

WARNING - Cool Down Timer will be extended depending on the number of people used on.

__________

"Uhhh, so does that mean I won't be able to use it immediately after I have used on them?"

Jay was a bit worried about that but he didn't intend to exit the dungeon until he had finished his missions anyway.

So he thought this might be the best way to save the people who were still alive.

He immediately shouted, "LISTEN! EVERYONE RUN TOWARDS THE LEFT! YOU CAN EXIT THE DUNGEON THAT WAY!"

It was a sudden voice which they heard out of no where so many didn't believe. However some of them believe and ran towards the left.

"The undeads are following the people, I had thought of using stealth on the wall but looks like I really have to use it on them directly!"

He used stealth on the people running who suddenly vanished and exited the dungeon.

The people who saw this also started running the same direction and Jaybstarted using STEALTH on everyone one by one so that they could escape.

Now almost everyone had left except Yuu, it seemed as if he wanted to stay back and fight.

"What are you doing YUU senpai!!!? Run quick!"

Yuu refused to listen to him and was just continuing to attack the undeads without thinking of anything else.

He was slowly being surrounded by undeads since the number people had drastically reduced.

"Dammit! Why don't you listen to me?"

No matter what Jay said, Yuu was just busy in killing all the undeads that were appearing in front of him. It was because Yuu had a grudge against the undeads.

The suddenly the ground started to shake. It was a huge tremor as if something large was walking towards them.

"..."

"Not good... this energy fluctuation... an S-Rank BOSS!!!"
