As expected, it's Blesser noona.

She came in alone, and they're giving this much of a reward?

Isn't that almost the same as the reward for repelling 70 dwarves?

Even though Dreamland is even stronger than it was back then, the multiplier is still this high.

Of course, the higher my level goes,

the stingier the rewards will get.

If I bring in helpers later, that'll really pay off.

Sechaham's level probably isn't far off now.

Anyway.

Honestly, I was scared.

This person gives off a different feeling from ordinary people.

To put it another way, the intruders so far had been risking their lives to come here, so they moved slowly and had that distinct atmosphere of being swallowed by fear.

But this person, Aboralis, was different.

Maybe because their life was infinite, they moved forward with a kind of breezy ease, like they were just playing a game.

When the maze was temporarily neutralized, I was honestly startled.

They were the most dangerous dungeon rapist I'd encountered so far.

Like the gallery users said, Blessers feel like beings born to kill Dungeon Masters.

If I had been a newbie Dungeon Master who chose a normal theme, wouldn't I have been done for?

"I definitely thought I'd gotten stronger, though."

At this rate, I'm uneasy.

Isn't there some way to make the dungeon even sturdier besides spending points?

.

.

.

Should I try exploiting a loophole in the system?

I can bring intruders in from outside.

And dungeons have something called an 'entry limit.'

I'm a level 105 Dungeon Master.

So the maximum entry limit is 15 people.

If I brought in fifteen easy-to-handle guys like goblins and let them live happily ever after in Dreamland, wouldn't that make it impossible for anyone to enter? Yeah, right.

'That'd be impossible.'

Honestly, I don't think this makes sense.

No matter how much of a bug-like newbie I am, there are still lines I can't cross.

Oblivion has basic safeguards in place so a dungeon can remain a dungeon.

For example, using the dungeon expansion feature to block off the route to the core room—ideas that make dungeon clearing impossible are prohibited.

I think in this case,

if some time passes, it would probably count as a 'successful defense,' and the wave would end even if they're still alive.

I have grounds for thinking that.

An intruder who turns into a goblin in Goblin Cave is judged dead, and the wave ends even if they don't actually die.

If that kind of thing were possible in the first place, timid Dungeon Masters like Sechaham would have used that loophole.

So there'd be no need to try it myself.

The old hands who became Dungeon Masters before me must have already tried everything.

I'll satisfy my curiosity when I check the gallery later.

.

The simplest method, as expected, is still to power up.

I can earn EXP and points by placing anomalies in other dungeons or by defending waves and the like.

The former can be done as much as needed, depending on the situation, but

it’s somewhat constrained by dungeon location, and it also assumes that intruders will enter that dungeon.

The dungeon closest to Dreamland right now is

Sechaham's Dino World, and assuming I fly there on Malangi, it's about a week round trip.

The next closest dungeons are.

I’d have to brace myself for spending several months on travel.

Dungeons have to shift locations roughly once a year,

and if I'm not in the dungeon at that time, some accident might happen and it may not transfer.

If I'm extremely far from the dungeon,

I might be forced to be away for a very long time.

Unless Malangi gets faster than it is now, or I find a new means of transportation, I’ll need to think this over.

For now, I’m planning to visit other dungeons and install anomalies whenever I get the chance.

The more income, the better, and the higher my level goes, the more traps and minions I'll be able to buy.

As a last resort, there's forced abduction.

But personally, I don't want to use that method.

It'd be no different from a robber killing people and stealing their things because he needs money.

If they were terrifying monsters like goblins or trolls, that'd be one thing.

I don't want to torment people who aren't hurting me or my friends.

This world is full of dungeon rapists, though.

-I came to pass along some information to the Dungeon Master.

-The Dungeon Master isn't from the South Kingdom, is he?

-What does that mean? Heh-heh.

Because there are definitely people who aren't rapists.

.

.

.

I guess I should live decently.

That's really the only way.

Not every Blesser has a trait like 'trap nullification.'

They can come back to life when they die, but there are penalties.

If I defeat a Blesser, I end up growing stronger instead, don't I?

I'll buy even more annoying and unpleasant anomalies

and turn Dreamland into a place filled with nightmares.

And then.

-This time I got lucky. If I'd lost at the start, I'd have gotten nothing but penalties.

It was probably said on purpose for me to hear.

I got a review from the Blesser: 'a dungeon I don't want to enter.'

There's no need to rush; I just need to keep going like this.

For now, let's celebrate reaching over level 100.

I can buy minions and traps with much better performance than the ones I've hired so far.

"Ah, but I forgot to turn on the community connection."

I logged into Dungeon Gallery first.

Before I expand anything, I should post the live recap first.

"Huh?"

But.

Why is the gallery so down in the dumps?

The post rate feels like it's dropped too. Surely nothing happened while I was gone?

I started reading through the old posts one by one.

Golem King : I wonder if that newbie bastard is holding up okay.

ㄴDIP : He should be holding up fine... You’ve seen how well the anomalies perform so far.

ㄴDIP : Don't worry too much.

ㄴDIP : Dreamland can even one-shot a Blesser, after all.

ㄴGolem King : No, it’s because Aboralis's clairvoyance is too much of a variable

ㄴGolem King : We don't fully understand the Blesser's abilities yet, do we

ㄴGolem King : If that thing can read even the memories of 'objects,' not just corpses

ㄴGolem King : then unless we create an entirely new area, it'll get through anyway

ㄴAnt Queen : That is definitely dangerous... yeah...

ㄴAnt Queen : Our Newbie is already soft and squishy like tofu

ㄴAnt Queen : Damn... I'm worried too

ㄴSkeleton Bones : Their mindset is definitely good, I can say that much.

ㄴSkeleton Bones : But their mental fortitude itself is strong, so it's fine

ㄴSkeleton Bones : And no matter how good the clairvoyance is, I doubt it can selectively take only the information it wants

ㄴSkeleton Bones : If that were possible, Aboralis would be praised outside as Oblivion ㅇㅇ

ㄴMagic Hero : A-and besides, clairvoyance itself isn't meaningful for dungeon clearing...

ㄴMagic Hero : I don't think they would have invested that heavily into it...

ㄴMagic Hero : A-anyway, they came alone... so it was probably just for simple reconnaissance...

ㄴCowhead : It's kind of lonely without Newbie's live updates

ㄴCowhead : Ah, so when are you going to show us the Blesser attending class, lol

.

.

.

WhaleWhaleYeah : Why is the Dungeon Gallery so quiet;;

ㄴSealed Conqueror : Fuck, the gallery vibe is so damn gloomy. Did somebody die??

ㄴSealed Philosopher : Newbie was the biggest topic by far

ㄴSealed Philosopher : so with the content dried up, it's a dead gallery lol

ㄴKing Slayer : Nothing bad actually happened, right.

ㄴSquinty-Eyed Character : Why are you doing that too;;

ㄴTV Head : Ugh, you soft little bastards, bend over.

ㄴTV Head : I'll drill a hole for you with my antenna, yeah

ㄴKongKong : This person just made a post asking if Newbie was okay

ㄴKongKong : and wrote a heartfelt post, lol

ㄴTV Head : Shut up

ㄴDungeon Master Was Disappointed : Honestly, if I were to say something shady,

ㄴDungeon Master Was Disappointed : everyone only talks about Newbie

ㄴDungeon Master Was Disappointed : so lately I haven't really liked the gallery atmosphere

ㄴDungeon Master Was Disappointed : but the ripple effect is bigger than I expected

ㄴDungeon Master Was Disappointed : I guess I've gotten attached to Newbie too... now I'm worried for no reason...

.

.

.

Ant Queen : So did that fucking LoveDog <<< die??

ㄴThe World Is Cold : For real, I haven't seen this person since Newbie disappeared

ㄴThe World Is Cold : Are you praying for them with a spirit link and water set out...

ㄴOrange★ : What kind of shared fate is that?

ㄴOrange★ : Is this that Peach Garden Oath thing or something?

ㄴI Have No Minions : LoveDog was always just lurking in the gallery before Newbie came around

ㄴAnt Queen : That's true, I guess...

ㄴI Have No Minions : Ugh... what do we do about this menhera, ㅇㅅㅇ

ㄴAnonymous Butcher : They'll manage on their own.

ㄴAnonymous Butcher : Don't worry too much and just wait.

.

.

Shibgan Love Dog : Phew... I finished making the Newbie doll

ㄴGolem King : Hey, long time no see

ㄴGolem King : But you said you weren't good with your hands... why did it come out this cute??

ㄴKongKong : Looks like the power of a menhera can overcome innate limits

ㄴShibgan Love Dog : Could you say it's the power of love??

ㄴDIP : But why is there blood on the Newbie doll lol? Is it a curse doll??

ㄴShibgan Love Dog : I kept pricking my fingers on the needle while making it diligently ㅠㅠ

ㄴNight Raven : Effort upvote

ㄴSquinty-Eyed Character : Effort upvote

ㄴI'm a Clown : Effort upvote

ㄴShibgan Love Dog : I'm going to hang it from the ceiling until Newbie comes back, hehe

ㄴShibgan Love Dog : Like a Teru Teru Bōzu

ㄴShibgan Love Dog : If they don't come back, I'll have to hang myself instead, hehe

ㄴI Have No Minions : H-hey, stop that

ㄴThe World Is Cold : If I were a woman, this person would really have killed themselves;;;

ㄴSkeleton Bones : That's seriously severe...

.

.

.

You really have to give the Dungeon Gallery users credit for their overreaction.

Seriously.

Someone worrying about me

doesn't feel bad.

What should my comeback line be?

Hmm. I guess there's nothing better than this.

I kept my fingers busy again today.
