The First Legendary Beast Master - Chapter 1233: Mythic Dungeon

Chapter 1233: Mythic Dungeon

Karl thought about the offer for a moment, then smiled. “Why don’t we go along on the trip this time? It will give the damage dealers a day off, we can get to learn the Dungeon, and then we can put off the complaints until next week.

Once a week shouldn’t be too hard on the schedule, even with all the backlog of orders that we’ve built up over the last few weeks.”

Deve smiled as they relented. “That would be perfect. Each of the three teams goes on a different day every week, but if you are available once a week, that would give us a chance to give all the damage dealers some extra time off when they need it.

I know that there are a few teams who wouldn’t mind an extended vacation.”

Raj laughed. “I know, my team is getting lazy. But we still need to keep the bills paid.”

The man had a point. The Mythic Dungeons were the primary source of funding for the head tax that the region charged people to live in the city and access the open dungeons.

Deve smiled. “Why don’t they come with me this time? I can get a healer and one more ready in a few minutes, and it’s halfway between our rotations, so nobody will miss out.

My guys have been grinding hard lately to make money for new gear, so they won’t turn down an extra run.”

Karl chuckled. “You are making me feel bad, like I’m taking advantage of them.”

Deve shrugged. “Totem Ranked gear is stupidly expensive, no matter how you look at it, and the Dungeon that we won doesn’t have the greatest loot. It’s also a really short one. We will be done in under an hour after we arrive.”

Hugo nodded. “The Mythic Dungeons have fierce competition. Plus, a lot of them are kind of sad. There is one that is just three pulls of guards and a single boss, but with a week-long timer. One year, there wasn’t even a challenge for it. The Guild who held it the year before won it by default because nobody else showed up to claim it.

It’s cheap to enter if you want. They ask for one Overlord Ranked or higher trash item as an entry fee.”

Karl chuckled. That was truly an inexpensive dungeon to visit. But with only one boss, it might actually be a good training spot.

[Epic Golems.] Dana thought, and Karl’s amused chuckle turned to a smile. She was right. The more bosses that they saw, the more that they could summon as defenders in combat.

“Well, we can talk about doing some of the short and easy dungeons later, just to build experience. Who knows, one of them might help a beast advance.” Karl agreed with fake reluctance that didn’t fool anyone.

The other Guild Leaders might not have known him long, but they knew Karl well enough to know that he was always up for a challenge, and even if he wasn’t the beasts certainly were.

Having them in his head would influence Karl to be more amenable to challenges, even if he was otherwise considered extremely busy for a Mythic Guild Leader.

And that reminded Deve of another point. “You should have space for two hundred Guild Members in your branch now, not just one hundred, right? Were you planning to recruit more craftsmen?

I can see that the ones in Drodh have been busy, even with the number who came to the wedding.”

Karl nodded. “We brought a lot of workers to Drodh. Some of them will be promoted to full Guild Members soon, and I might look for a few more to round out our ranks. But no rush.”

“Did you want to eat and then head for the dungeon?” Deve asked hopefully.

Karl turned to Dana, who shrugged. “I don’t see why not. Call your people over, and we can plan the dungeon run.”

The dungeon was actually a simple one. It was a small jungle section with Demonic Apes in it and just two bosses. All you had to do was follow the path and eliminate the groups.

Simple. As long as you didn’t get encircled by the apes and their earth elemental attacks, or knocked down by [Earthquake].

“Alright, I will call over a cleric and a Warrior. Not that I think we will need more bodies in melee, but it will help guide the Golems. Once they know what to do, we can likely send you two with any sort of group and expect it to be fine.

Though…”

Karl laughed as Deve paused. “We are likely to be the only thing resembling a mage in most of the groups if we go because there are so many warriors?”

The Druid shrugged. “Your words, not mine. We did curate the groups for a better mix of Mythic team members. But most are still three warrior types, a mage and a healer.”

There was simply no getting around it. There weren’t enough of the other classes to have it any other way. Even having Deve as a Druid Tank was more diversity than most groups claimed.

“Alright, you call the members, we will grab something to eat, and then calm the ladies. I’m sure that they’re not going to be happy about being left behind when there are new things to fight.” Karl joked.

Deve rolled his eyes. “The badger will be easy to distract, but I don’t know what you’re going to tell Rae. Telling her that with the damage reduction, her stabbing will be ineffective might just get you stabbed instead.”

In her space, Rae smirked. The badger lover was a smart man.

But she was already preparing her advancement bath and consolidating energy from her space into her body to force herself to the bottleneck so she could be Mythic as soon as possible.

If everything went to plan, not only would she be the first one to advance, she would be ready for the next week’s dungeon run, and she could stab all new things to her heart’s content.

For this week, she would have to bother Nilla’s group to take her on a run. When the tank said to take her, the rest of the group wouldn’t argue with him.
