Chapter 239 239 - Dungeon
Right now, both Sam and Alena were going toward the peak D-grade dungeon. Fortunately, they did not need to go outside of the central city because the Dungeon was inside the central city. While going toward the Dungeon Sam was observing his surrounding area. Actually, he wanted to know if there was any spy around him watching over his movement. Also, his teacher Alena was with him, so he wanted to know if those people from the dark situation would still dare to come. Sam doesn't know, but Alena is also observing her surrounding area. She already gets to know from Sam that when he went to the ghost Dungeon in Venus City he got attacked by the dark association Warriors because they put a bounty on his head. Because of this, she also observed her surroundings, and she also wanted to know if those people still dare to come toward Sam even though she was with him.
It did not take them that much time to reach the Dungeon. Before going to the Dungeon Sam went toward the guide to know the details about this dungeon. It took some time to know all the details. All this time Alena is also with him, but she already hides her face so no one can recognize her. After that, both of them enter the Dungeon.
This dungeon also has three floors. On the first floor, you will meet early D-grade monsters and on the last floor, you will meet peak D-grade monsters and the boss. Also, one more important thing was that Sam did not tell anyone about his breakthrough, so Alena naturally thought that he was still on in the early D-grade. Because of this, she told him to kill as many monsters as he can on this floor. Actually, she wanted him to collect as much as crystal he could on this floor. Sam did not say anything and just nodded at her word.
The monsters you will find on this first floor were Black Scorpion, Sand Golem, and Sandworm. These three types of monsters you will find in this dungeon. Also, with this, you can guess that the environment around these Dungeons was dessert. Fortunately, the original Sun wasn't here but still, the atmosphere was very hot.
You can say that it was Sam's first experience in this desert Dungeon. Previously, he only went to the dungeon, where he only found the forest environment. So it will take him some time to adjust to this dungeon. He wasn't alone because he could see many people near this area.
"Well, many like to make their camp near the entrance because, with that, they could easily leave this place. Not everyone could adjust themselves in this dungeon. As you can see that this wasn't your forest where you can find any cave or any big trees to rest. Because of this, many people don't like to stay here that much." Alena explained to him why many people were near the entrance.
Sam nodded at her and then began to advance. Well, they didn't even advance that much when he suddenly saw that a person not far away from them was running toward the entrance. Also, he wasn't alone because Sam saw 5 black scorpions chasing that guy. For a second, Sam became confused because he never saw something like this. At first, he thought that the guy was a solo Warrior but then he noticed the guy was running towards some people that were near the entrance.
"Well, this was the strategy those people are following. All of them will stay near the entrance and one of them will be the bait. That person will bring monsters toward his group so that other Warriors could kill those monsters. But this plan did not work every time because to follow this plan, the warrior who became the bait needed to be quick. I am telling you because those desert worms were quick." Alena explains all of this when she notices a confused look on Sam's face. Only then Sam understands.
But those black scorpions did not come toward them and just chased after that guy. Because of this, Sam and Alena ignore them and continue to advance.
_______________
Suddenly, Sam vanishes from his place. Not far away from his place, you can see 5 Scorpions. Suddenly, one scorpion got split in half. As you can guess, it was Sam who killed that Scorpion. Some time ago, he noticed these scorpions and decided to attack them. Even though the body shells of these Scorpions were very tough, Sam was using his energy mode while using 30% of his spiritual energy. With that, you can guess how much sharper his sword got. Because of this, he could easily cut that Scorpion in half. Sam did not waste time and also attacked the other 4 Scorpions.
Not far away from his place, Alena was watching all of this. Even though she knows Sam has a special concealment technique, even she could not detect him. But still, it was very surprising for her to see how easily Sam was killing those Scorpions. Also, one more thing was that even though she could not detect him when Sam uses the concealment technique, she could detect the energy fluctuation when he uses his technique, like energy mode.
Right now, because Sam was using the energy mode, Alena was able to detect him with that. It took him only a few minutes to kill all those Scorpions and, right now, he was collecting all the loot. But he did not get anything good because he only got some normal loot from this. Well, it seems he was out of luck.
Sam did not get disappointed and once again, with his teacher beside him, began to advance. Both of them once again begin to search for the monster in this desert.
Sometime later,
Suddenly, Alena told Sam to stop moving. After that, she pointed her finger in a direction and told some that there were many sandworms in that place. Only then Sam looked at that place carefully. But still, he could see nothing. Well, this was natural because those sandworms hide themselves in this and very easily and it was very hard for anyone to detect them if they did not observe their surroundings all the time. Sam also all the time, but he is still unable to detect them.
Suddenly, Alena threw something in that place, and instantly Sam noticed many movements around that area. Previously, she threw a piece of meat in that area, and instantly those sandworms began to go toward that piece of meat. With that, you can guess that those sandworms like to eat meat. They were one of the most dangerous monsters you will find in the desert area. They could travel in the desert very fast and they could also hide themselves easily and because of this, they became one of the most dangerous monsters in the desert.
At this time, Sam did not say anything and once again vanished from his place. He uses the concealment technique to hide himself and then uses his full speed to reach those monsters. He did not want those monsters to leave this area and because of this; he used the telekinesis power. That will prevent their escape. Sam also wasn't slow; he began to kill those monsters very quickly. At least 20 sandworms were in that place but some already killed 18 of them. While he was about to kill the remaining, suddenly, he felt a movement in the sand. He quickly jumped away from that place. Instantly 5 sand worms came out of the sand. Even though they cannot see Sam, they could still feel the moment when Sam walks in the sand. But some did not give them the chance to once again use his power to stop those 5 sand worms. These monsters were very fast. Fortunately, he has this type of technique that could prevent this monster from moving.
Also, the weakness of this monster was that it did not have powerful defenses. Because of this, Sam could easily kill them even without using the energy mode. Wasting no time, Sam began to kill those monsters. After collecting all the loot, he came beside Alena. Both of them once again begin to advance. Most probably, they will need one day to reach the next floor's entrance.
Sometime later,
Right now, both of them were inside a tent and they were eating their food. Sam will rest for some time and after that, you will once again begin to hunt those monsters while going toward the entrance of the next floor. It has been a very long time since he did not go toward the second floor of any dungeon.

While Sam was resting, and Alena was meditating, he suddenly heard a noise from outside. He quickly looked outside of his tent and saw that not far away from his place, a golem was fighting some people.
