Chapter 29

John and the party were getting better at running the hotel dungeon, they could now run the two current floors in challenge mode where they were only allowed to touch the floors or additional opponents spawned. The planned third floor was going to be a boat of a type the didn't recognise but was known as a cross-channel ferry, despite the name these were just any that carried both passengers and land vehicle - they also went between other parts of Europe than the implied England and France.

The woman once known as Silence of Dungeons had been one of those whose deaths during the tide had not been a direct result. Shortly before, she had been stabbed in the back and left face down in a flooded church to drown. Of course, her pseudonym didn't actually relate to dungeons in the new sense, they referred to the other sense where it was a prison attached to a castle. She had been killing politically inconvenient prisoners, such as those suspected of espionage who were actually guilty, on behalf of rival kingdoms. During the transmigration, she was one of the few deliberately deposited outside the borders of Retowner. She had now spent three years living in the wilderness and had multiple skills related to that including being able to make bows and arrows, forestry and tracking.

She was now going by Hannah, not that she had actually talked to anyone to tell them that. She had been hunting native wildlife, so was good at killing slime creatures with arrows. She was also the main delver of the slime dungeon. It wasn't growing as much as the others, it was not onto the third floor yet and both its first two were smaller than others. She wasn't even aware of a second floor boss.

People who bothered checking their status were now starting to see a mysterious entry for lean-well. This was actually a Skill acquisition and improvement rate floor, it was supposed to be called learn-well but Rajesh had made a typo when setting it up. It was also supposed to be hidden, as he had done with other derived attributes such as health and beauty.

Rajesh wanted to let people from Earth into the world but he'd have to fix the issue with the system including this bug and the one causing fictional characters to earn achievements, which was still happening.

The green market was used to sell items legitimately with the backing of church and state by those that had previously run the black market in the old world. It sold those goods that were no longer illegal. They also ran a red market, which differed from a black one by openly selling the illegal goods, mainly those who had previously been bootleggers, it was just shy of being a criminal act, the goods approved for now but likely to become illicit later. The red market was the premium seller of ale for personal consumption.

The harbour dungeon had decided to start distributing less experience when the ships didn't rotate landing parties if they had a large enough crew. This wasn't effective as it wasn't actually awarding experience directly, status was after all just a reflection of skills and abilities demonstrated. It had no practical impact, especially as the dungeon did not have direct control.
