Chapter 21

(3rd Person View!)

Inside the Dungeon!

Juri behind Gabriela, soon stood beside her looking around a bit at the surroundings, noticing the obvious differences, the trees being much thicker and taller!

"Don't underestimate any creature you see, even the Rabbits can kill people here!" - Said Juri seriously and Gabriela nodded.

Then Juri opened his [Map], soon discovering hundreds of red and yellow dots all around, varying sizes.

Juri then pointed in one direction and said. - "Over there is something strong!"

Gabriela nodded, not asking too much so they headed that way!

Juri kept analyzing the [Map] every second, where it didn't take long for them to get to the creature, which left Gabriela amazed at the size and appearance!

It was a boar, which looked more like a bull in the case of size!

This boar had four huge tusks the size of bananas coming out of its mouth, all crooked like bananas.

Not to mention that its entire head seemed to be covered in a layer of natural armor, its skin was so thick on its head that it gave that feeling.

The creature is simply huge and magnificent, but she didn't give Gabriela and Juri time to admire it, but Juri quickly glanced at its name and Level.

[Armored Boar - Level 14].

And with that the battle begins, roll initiative!

Joking aside, the Boar started the battle by giving a furious lunge, targeting Gabriela who is bigger and obviously stronger.

"Activate your [Negative Power], that fucker is at least 2 times stronger than you in physical terms, maybe more!" - Shouted Juri running to the side and going around everything.

Gabriela was already being enveloped by her [Negative Power] modeling a smoke around her, black and white colored smoke with some hints of redness.

Soon Gabriela pulled out her huge sledgehammer, roared like a beast and advanced without fear!

Juri only saw the two wild beasts colliding and then the Boar's head being buried in the ground and its hind legs sticking out of the ground.

"FUCKING SHIT!" - Shouted Juri shocked by the scene, she knew Gabriela is strong, but this... fucking shit!

"He's not dead!" - Shouted Juri regaining her senses, Gabriela not understanding, even if he is not dead, he will be very weakened after that beating.

But the answer that came was the Armored Boar raising its head and hitting Gabriela, sending her 10 feet up and flying some 15 feet.

Gabriela screamed as she was thrown, unleashing her sledge unfortunately.

The Boar grunted in pain, nodding fiercely, Juri was able to see that the boar was under stun effect, which will last a few more seconds.

Obviously she won't waste this chance, she ran and jumped, soon landing a heavy kick from above on the Boar's head, which grunted pitifully as it was hit.

This took some of its HP, but the Boar should easily have 500~600 HP, unlike the monsters of Level 1~10, where their HP is something very large and linked to Constitution, beings of Level 11 and above, have more compact HP and MP.

What does this mean?

It means that the weight of 1 HP point of Level 11 and above, is equivalent to 5~10 times the HP points of Level 1~10!

So if the Armored Boar of Level 14, has 140 Constitution, it means that at least he will have 336 HP, but because it is a beast and Juri does not know his Passive Skills, besides an absurd defense, he must have skills that increase HP.

So 500 should be a good number.

Even if it's half of what Juri has, it has to be noted that she is at Level 42, the difference is very obvious, but in the end they are creatures focused on physical abilities, certainly having powerful Abilities to support their high Attributes.

Juri just doesn't know how to use her Attributes correctly, she's still learning!

Of course, there is the fact that the System has been well modified and its rules, making it difficult for Juri at the same Level, to keep up with the strength of others of the Same Level.

Even because of this Juri goes up in Level very quickly, so even if at Level 200 she has problems facing a Level 100, she will at least have reached that Level with some ease.

...

Juri kept hitting and distracting the Armored Boar, which coming out of its daze, focused its rage on Juri, attacking her non-stop, but Juri was very agile and constantly dodged and ran.

This gave Gabriela time to recover from the stupor of being thrown, she was on her feet, still a little dizzy, but found her Sledgehammer not far away and Juri confronting the huge boar.

Snorting, Gabriela ran and grabbed her Muppet, before running and taking a leap, she brought the sledge down on the Boar's huge back, a shrill, muffled sound sounding, followed by the boar's eardrum-pounding scream.

Juri launched a kick at the boar's chin, causing it to close its mouth, the boar was a bit confused about who to attack, who hit it so hard on its back or its face now.

The answer soon came when another kick came to its face, annoyed, the Boar focused on Juri and jumped to smash her!

Juri was surprised and tried to back away at the sudden action of the Boar being flanked by her and Gabriela.

Gabriela saw what the boar was doing, so she threw herself and using her body, pushed the boar away from Juri.

"Thanks, hottie!" - Shouted Juri raising a thumb, Gabriela rolled her eyes at the "compliment".

Then Gabriela stepped forward and landed another sledgehammer on the Boar's back, Juri also stopped kicking and drew his swords, where he began to slash the Boar.

The Boar let out pitiful roars, but in the end it toppled over and its body crumbled, symbolizing its death!

Juri let out a big sigh with his hands on his waist, Gabriela dropped the sledgehammer with her breathing a little short.

"So... what did you think?" - Juri asked.

"...Interesting...but how did you know it hadn't died or been debilitated?" - Gabriela asked, obviously over her first hammering on the Boar's head.

Had it been an ordinary Boar, even with such attributes and abilities, it would have died of brain damage.

But the Boar continued 100%.

"This is a Dimension created by my power, the laws here follow the same as in my body, it is not possible to dismember the creatures or break their bones, they can continue fighting 100%, as long as I don't reach the damage needed to kill them!" - Answered Juri calmly.

"Why didn't you say so before?" - Gabriela asked frowning.

"I explained about myself, so I thought it would be pretty obvious that creatures created by my powers naturally follow similar rules!" - Said Juri looking at her as if it was obvious.

Gabriela rolled her eyes sighing and then quickly looked at the things on the floor.

"What about the body disappearing? What are those things?"

"That's the loot, our reward for killing the boar!" - Juri said.

"That's it? That's probably not even 1% of the available materials, it doesn't pay off at all!" - Said Gabriela nodding her head.

"Not worth it? Woman, do you think you can find a shit like that in reality? Not to mention that technically, this Dimension is infinite, even if it's not, it's gigantic and has infinite creatures, regenerating dead monsters every 24 hours!

In other words, while in reality you would have to spend a lot of time and effort to find animals, here you just have to have the effort to find, kill them, and get the loot due, and not worry about the ecosystem!

Now tell me if that doesn't pay off?!" - Juri asks with his hands on his waist shaking his head to the side.

Gabriela was silent noticing this point, soon seeing that the Dungeon is a bigger treasure than she initially thought.

"I think we better start using our firearms, unfortunately I have given up using shield, but I think I will buy a new one in the future..." - Gabriela said calmly.

"Not all monsters are like this, this is one of the evolved ones so to speak, one that I am unfamiliar with, but from what I can see, there are many of the common and weak ones nearby that we can easily deal with..." - Juri stopped talking noticing something.

"What? Why did you stop talking so suddenly?" - Gabriela asked looking around and pulling out her sledgehammer.

"Don't worry, nothing is coming to attack us, this area is safe, monsters are restricted in their areas of operation." - Said Juri calming Gabriela.

"Ok, but what is it?" - Gabriela asked looking at her more seriously.

"I think we hit the jackpot!" - Said Juri smiling happily.

"Why?" - Gabriela asked confused and curious.

"I have just received information about something new that has come up, let's say it's kind of like a game, a challenge with a big reward at the end, a Treasure Chest in the literal sense!" - Said Juri with her smile widening.

"Explain that better!" - Gabriela said sighing.

"The information I received, is that there are extremely low chances, less than 1% of appearing a Treasure Chest, which I still don't know what's inside, but they are valuable and magical items, apparently there are chances of appearing elixirs that heal wounds, make scars disappear and even regenerate limbs in extreme cases..."

Gabriela's eyes widened hearing about this so-called Elixir and Juri continued talking.

"... there may also come new weapons and materials to make better equipment than the existing ones... there is also the chance of a [Enhancement Emblem], which apparently can be assimilated into some kind of item and make it 10% stronger and more resistant, as well as greatly strengthening its durability and high chances of acquiring new effects or strengthening existing effects... I guess technically it would be like [Wrapped in Blood]!" - Said Juri feigning astonishment.

Gabriela, on the other hand, was very amazed knowing about such treasures.

"What are we waiting for?! Let's go!" - Shouted Gabriela excitedly.

"Wait!" - Said Juri stopping her.

"You think that's all a Treasure Chest is? Did you forget that I said about [Challenge]?"

"..." - Gabriela said nothing, waiting for Juri to answer.

Juri sighed lightly and answered herself. - "There is a guardian, a creature that will be at least 2 times stronger or tougher than the boar we just faced!"

Gabriela got serious hearing this, then said. - "Let me see if I'm in order, do the same, then let's go meet this creature!"

Juri nodded, knowing that he will use the Firearms.

Ah, as for the loot from the Armored Boar, it was its skin, bones and blood as usual, common loot only.

As for XP, because Gabriela dealt the last blow, Juri was unable to receive XP, since he did not add her to the same group.

But Juri will not add, not out of prejudice or lack of trust... in fact, it is exactly out of lack of trust!

She doesn't know how it will be in Gabriela's view, what she will think when she sees her Status, how she would react, whether she would tell Pietro everything and fuck with Juri's life.
