Chapter 3
I messed up.
“Shit..This is what I get for trying to be cool..”
Yep. Remember when I took the Laser Mk5 and ran out of the house into the dungeon. Well at the time I forgot to bring anything. Well yeah I have a weapon that could last me some time but I have no food , water, and anything. Well I do have my phone and the clothes on m y back.
I walked for hours before I realized I forgot to pack supplies. I tried to turn back, but now I’m completely lost.
Well atleast I know I won’t die. Thank You Mom and Dad.
I guess all I can do is just keep walking and maybe find a monster to kill and complete my first objective at the least.
There hasn’t been any monsters. I’ve walked for hours and I haven’t seen even one monster. But I have seen signs of monsters. Like blood from a fight, and some fur and flesh found on the ground rotting.
“Psk..Psk..Psk..”
A red snake the size of twice my body had appeared. It had spines running down its back from its head to tail. Each of them blood red like its body. It slowly moved forward not noticing me.
Aiming the gun carefully he fired two shots at the snake and...missed.
“Shit..”
Noticing the small human in front of it, it narrowed its eyes provocatively. Stopping in place it turned its head at the human in confusion.
Firing another two shots the aim wasn’t even close to the snake and one of the projectiles even flew towards the roof of the dungeon.
“Umm..”
Turning its head up away from the human it stared at the bright light of the laser disappear as it dissipated into the roof of the dungeon. Then it turned back towards the human and resumed going forward towards him.
Panicking at the snake moving forward he pulled the trigger five times and missed four of his shots but the last one hit the snake's head dead center.
On the snake a small hole the size of a finger drilled into its head leaving a bloody hole. Stopping immediately the snake opened its mouth before closing it and not moving again.
“Umm..Are you dead?”
Asking tentatively Adonis moved towards the snake expecting it to get up and jump towards him and opening its mouth to swallow him whole.
Not moving even a twitch, Adonis had arrived next to it poking it with the muzzle of the laser gun.
“You're dead right?”
Poking the snake over and over again it didn’t even twitch.
Realizing that the snake in front of him had actually died, Adonis let out a breath that he didn’t realize that he was holding before breaking into a smile and pumping his fist into the air in victory.
“Yah!”
Jumping up and down in excitement he looked at the corpse with glowing eyes. Then he calmed himself down forcefully arriving next to the corpse.
“So how do I use a skill?”
Powering on his phone to the Status Screen no instructions of how to use the skills were displayed.
“Hmm..<
Saying the name of the skill toward the corpse his whole body almost collapsed as a feeling of exhaustion wracked his body. After saying the name a black ball flew from his body into the corpse of the monster.
The snakes wound closed itself leaving no mark of a wound and its eyes moved into narrow slits. It moved up to Adonis and gently bumped his head against him nearly pushing him into collapse after the wave of exhaustion.
*Bzz Bzz*
Feeling the phone vibrate he looked at it to see a notification on top of his status. It read “Changes found: Update Y/N”
Pressing the Yes subconsciously the phone updated in seconds displaying a new status screen.

“Your name’s Venom?”
As if understanding it ts head bobbed up and down in affirmation.
“You’ll follow me from now on?”
Bobbing its head up and down in a comical way its body moved forward nearly impaling Adonis with the spikes on its back.
“Woah, Woah, Woah!”
Dodging out of the way the spikes scraped the edge of his shirt causing a hole to appear cleanly. Cold sweat started to form after seeing his shirt ripped open by a playful nudge by the creature in front of him.
Shoot..What would happen if that actually happened..
A image of his chest bursting open as blood flew out appeared in his mind.
*Shudder* *Shudder*
“Well that shouldn’t happen right?”
Hearing him say the question the snake tilted its head in confusion not understanding.
“You’ll understand later. Oh and no touching..I’m snake phobic.”
*Shudder* *Shudder*
Imagining himself being cut open by the spike made him shudder at the cold feeling of where the cut would’ve been.
Twisting its body in a impossible way it moved backwards rapidly putting distance away from him before turning to look at him sadly.
Ignoring the sad gaze from the snake he resumed walking down the corridor with the snake following after him.
After a few minutes of walking in the same direction they had found another monster. Unlike the snake it was probably weaker. It’s the generic monster of any MMORPG.
The Slime.
Well it was different. Instead of the cute *pyon* *pyon* slime, the slime was huge and a block of goo. Yep, a block of moving goo. It was the size of a small room and had bones filtering throughout it’s see through body.
“Damn Light Novel Writers making slimes cute..my dreams.”
Pulling the trigger on his gun he fired about ten shots at it without missing before he realized that it had no effect on the slime.
Turning towards the snake he asked “Can you kill it?”
The snake gave no reply but its body charged forward and wrapped around the slime separating it into two parts. The two parts separated and they each started to move toward the snake.
“Ehh..There’s two of them…”
The snake threw itself into the mess of slime again and the slime’s became smaller and smaller but there were a lot of them.
“78...79...80..81...I don’t think it’s working..”
With each attack from the snake more and more slimes kept multiplying flooding the dungeon with them.
“I don’t think we can kill it...umm..retreat!”
Hearing Adonis say retreat the snake leapt out of the pool of slime and in speeds that seemed impossible for it and flew away from the slimes. In speeds that weren’t possible for its stats, it slithered down the path becoming a black dot in the background.
“Wait! Wait! Wait!”
Chasing after the snake he completely lost it after getting to a two way split on the path.
“Well he’s gone..”
Turning to the right path he walked down it.
After a few hours he had appeared where he had started . The house.
“Well atleast I completed one of the objectives on the list.” mumbled Adonis opening the fridge in the house to get some food to eat.
Taking the food and drinks he found in the fridge he returned back to the living room to cross off the first item on the list

“Now time to relax..Ahh! This is the best!”
Turning on the T.V. he flopped onto the couch in relaxation.
“BREAKING NEWS!”
On the T.V. the show had disappeared and the warning flashes glowed on the screen.
“About five minutes ago a tsunami has been estimated to hit the Pacific West Coast in two hours. Please evacuate in an orderly manner. We have just received information from the Dungeon Researcher’s Team Wolfgang that this tsunami has been caused by a flooding of a underwater dungeon.”
Pausing there the reporter paused as shock flashed through her eyes before she started to speak again.
“Team Wolfgang has also had readings that this has been the biggest dungeon flood since the flood in 1953 that had swallowed a country. Everybody is advised to evacuated in Japan, China, Philippines, Australia, The US, Mexico, Chile, Peru, etc. away from Pacific Ocean Coast and for any country that has a ocean coast you are advised to head iland as monsters have just appeared to be spreading towards the Indian Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean. We have a reporter on the scene at the Ability User’s Headquarters.”
The screen changed from the reporter to another reporter with a background of hundreds of people rushing into vehicles and leaving.
“We’re on the scene here at the current largest guild Kingdom and ability user’s are all rushing towards the scene. Here we have one of the receptionist of the guild. What is your take on this?”
“This is the first time I have seen our adventurer’s so rushed to be taken to the field.”
Pointing towards the entrance of the building a number of Military Troop Transport Trucks lined the parking lot.
“This has been the first time in the whole history of this guild that we have needed to borrow more than 300 vehicles from the military to transport our members to field. We are after all sending every member that has combat ability to keep this situation under control. We have also heard there have been emergency calls from the the other top 10 guilds and are also currently deploying ability user’s into the field.”
“Thank you for the information.”
Taking back the microphone the reporter stopped one of the men who was in the rush to head out of the door with his equipment.
“Sir, Sir, What is your take on the situation.”
“From the briefing we just had we have currently lost contact with Hawaii, New Zealand, and the Philippines. We hope we can find survivors and get us out of the situation but from what the guild leader has told us. The overall damage of this flood in this hour is already 5x more than the last flood in 1953. Sorry but I need to go.”
Throwing the microphone back the man left as fast as he had come.
“And that is the situation here in the guild Kingdom. Back to you anchors.”
After going back to the anchor there were more interviews of what the other top 10 guilds were doing and they all had the same information.
“Man looks really bad out there.”
“This just in, The Cawdor Guild Leaders Lily and Tony Aether has just lead the Cawdor Guild forces into the underwater dungeon Siphila to stop the flood of monsters.”
“Wait..That’s mom and dad.”
On the T.V. screen a picture of his mom and his dad were on there.
“Wait..They were guild leaders..”
