1736: Three Winged Angel Demon -Part 4

Three Winged Angel Demon -Part 4

"Hey, who are you talking to?" Lynn asked as Jin was making quite a big fuss at the side of the dungeon entrance.0

"Syn, he said that he is going to help us with the collection of materials." 

"Syn, the Synthesis World's AI Administration? How so?" Lynn questioned as sat down on a bench near the dungeon entrance to wear her new gloves and boots. 

"He said along the lines that he would create a monster that would be able to let us find the items needed for the upgrades. And since Yinn is upgrading right now, this would be the perfect time to go in …once I got my equipment from Nie." Jin said as he showed Lynn the bunch of swords that he was carrying.

"I am here. Don't have to say things behind my back." Nie's voice echoed through the stairway down to the dungeon entrance. "There you go. The short swords I assume you would be breaking them first so I made temporary holsters for their scabbard so that once used, you just pull over here and the holster will tighten and it should not bother your movement after that." 

"That's useful, thanks Nie," Jin said as Nie already walked towards Jin and helped him to put up the holsters as the two Demigorgon Swords had been placed at the left side of his waist while the other three were at the right. There was a bag at the back for him to put some battle accessories and consumables if needed while Nie assisted Jin in putting a secondary holster at his chest area where he could place a handgun over there. 

"You look like an overpacked mule with all those swords hanging at your waist," Lynn commented but as Jin tried to walk, they were not bothering him that much and so was running. He expected the belt area to be heavier with all those items. 

"Yeah, I did a bit of measurement and was able to instead a Mindjacker power crystal in the holster, allowing it to have some anti gravity properties. I thought its effects would be minimal since I did not fully refine the power crystal. But it looks like it worked out just fine."

"The Mindjacker, as the one from Parry City Dungeons?" Jin asked.

"Oh? You know about those? I thought I said the name for fun and you would be like woooahh. But anyways, yes. Its from Parry City Dungeons. I had a few of them ordered because most Mechanoid Porters need them. Not on them of course but on the large containers that they are moving. See, over here." Nie said as he knelt down and pointed at the bottom of the container for Jin to inspect.

"The power diminished after a few months or so, we will always have a ready stock of them…or well I finally got a stock full of them." 

"I thought they say they are hard to catch? And the stones are useless once you hit them on the head or something like that." 

"Yeah, they do. Its useless as once you hit it on the head to kill the Mindjacker, the monster would die but the power crystal would still be emitting the energy non stop. Hence from a practical point of view, its rather useless unless you want to lift something up forever. You cannot harness its powers at all." Nie explained and Jin understood it a little.

"Alright, then shall we get going?" Jin raised his hands out as if to ask Lynn for a date within the dungeons.

"If this is a date, you are really a very bad person as choosing date locations."  Lynn mumbled.

"Heh, considering what kind of situation we are in, I think this is the best place I could afford. Besides, I bet you want to whack something so you can cook a good dinner for Old Flammet and Nie for helping us." 

"You read my mind though those upgrade materials are more important. Let's hope we can get most of it before Yinn finishes her upgrade." Lynn remarked.

"Yeah, I told Nie about it that we are attempting to get those materials but also warned Grandpa Flammet not to hold his breath on it."

"You scare you will fail?" 

"Maybe. To a certain extent. The number of materials to be squeezed in one monster? There is no way it would just be one monster that we would be fighting and the destruction we throw out might even destroy the material before we know it." Jin said as he tapped on the Mechanoid and it followed behind them as the doors opened.

"Good luck! All the best!" Nie said before returning to his workshop as well as informing Old Flammet about what Jin had told him about. But as he was about to leave, he noticed something odd standing in front of the dungeon entrance when Jin opened it.

"Huh, I do not remember this to be here." Jin said and Nie walked to the dungeon entrance confused.

"This …is the Three Winged Angel Statue. What is it doing here?" Nie said and Jin realised and understood what Syn was trying to get about.

"I think I know the reason for its existence." Jin replied as he touched the feets of the statue and the Three Winged Angel came to life. "Variant Dungeon detected, Variant of the Standards would be placed in the next room for you to fight and defeat. Failure to do so would amount to certain death." The Angel said in a stony voice before it turned and made a pose of pointing at the direction where Jin should walk.

"Okay… Don't sound like it will be a walk in the park, Jin. You sure you are ready for this?" Lynn asked.

"Ready or not, we have to fight it. At the very least, we would know the standard and quality of the monsters in this Three Winged Angel Dungeon. Or else, we might never be able to win against the Dungeon King. Worse come to worse, a quick dungeon instance creation should do the trick." Jin said as they took a deep breath in and entered.
