Chapter 163: Battle
The reward knife couldn't look more ordinary, but since Pento had belief in Aakesh and the store, he decided not to judge the weapon by its appearance.
His eyes then fell on the bone spear lying down on the ground. The spearhead made of the horn had also disappeared after the corpse of the leader disappeared, making it useless.
"Let's check your sharpness," He murmured, looking at the knife in his hands.
After deciding, he didn't wait further, bent down, and struck the spear.
The next moment a surprised expression appeared on his face as the knife cut the remaining spear in two like it was cutting a piece of butter.
"How can anything related to the store be ordinary?" He mumbled as he gently tucked the knife in his waist using the jacket.
"Now, how do I lea-"
He whispered, but his words came to a sudden halt as he felt himself going through the torture he had faced while entering the portal again.
The next moment, he appeared on the land filled with snow where he had spawned when he entered the world.
A snowstorm was going on currently, with the weather reaching minus degrees, but Pento only felt a slight chill in the weather.
His view range had grown despite a strong snowstorm trying to obstruct his view. He could see up to 70 meters.
Like the first time, he randomly chose a direction and proceeded in that direction since he knew the weather would only get chillier now that he was here.
Time flew by. Seconds turned into minutes, minutes into hours, hours into days, days into weeks, weeks into months, and months into years.
It has been two years since the participants entered the artificial dimension for the event, while only around 12 minutes had passed in the real world.
Despite spending two years in a world, time didn't affect either the participants or the people in the crowd.
In these two years, many came across yellow dungeons a level higher than the green dungeon, but only two participants attempted to clear it, and both the participants failed and got killed.
Since the participants only had one life in the dimension, they got disqualified and returned to the platform.
Many participants even failed to clear the green dungeon where the monsters would have clear weaknesses. The green dungeon took more than 500 lives in the past two years.
While in the store, only three participants came forward to participate in the event in the last 12 minutes, making the number of participants for the event 286,747, out of which 537 participants had gotten disqualified.
Pento was currently picking up a red egg from the ground.
The area around him looked as if an earthquake had come here. Cracks on the ground could be seen with some trees half charred or some trees lying on the ground.
He had an expressionless face, seeing the red egg in his hands.
He then crushed the egg, and the next moment a roll made of animal skin appeared in his hands.
A confused expression appeared on his face as he opened the roll.
When he opened it, he found some strange letters he had never read or seen engraved in the roll. Suddenly the letters came alive and started leaving the animal skin.
Pento was taken aback by the sudden situation, but he calmed himself the next moment as it was a reward.
The next moment, the animal skin disintegrated since all the letters engraved in it were currently floating in the air.
As if a lock had been opened after the animal skin vanished, the letters floating in the air made a straight line and rushed at Pento.
Pento took a deep breath to calm himself down since it was a reward, not an attack, but subconsciously he had turned into a posture where he could attack anytime using his spear.
"Eh!" A sudden exclamation left Pento as he didn't feel anything after the letters attacked him.
The next moment, all the letters dissolved into Pento, and a sudden headache emerged out of nowhere.
Pento clutched his head to control it, but the next moment it disappeared like it was never there, and Pento only saw an Illusion.
"A Combat skill!"
Pento exclaimed in excitement as he found a new memory inside his head.
It was a combat skill that only beings with weapons could use. Fortunately for Pento, he used a spear since he had gotten used to it during the past two years.
"Finally, a skill! Yellow dungeon truly worked for me," Pento murmured as the next moment, a blue light engulfed his spear, and the next moment it disappeared.
Pento didn't know, but he was the first participant to clear a yellow dungeon.
After the blue light disappeared, Pento looked at his white spear with a red arrowhead, looking the same as before.
It looked as if nothing had changed, but the next moment when Pento pierced the air, a beam out of nowhere emerged and engulfed an area of a few meters around it.
Since Pento was the attacker, the energy blast didn't injure him, but a few feet deep pit had appeared where he was standing.
An excited expression appeared on Pento's face, seeing the damage caused by the new skill he had learned. The next moment, he disappeared from the dungeon and appeared near a house made of snow.
During the past year, whenever he came across a dungeon, he would create a tiny structure near it for resting.
He entered the building and fell flat on the ground filled with furs of different beasts. The next moment snores echoed in the area as it didn't take long for him to fall asleep.
While Pento was sleeping peacefully, Brinda was currently in a fight against a group of humans.
It was her sixtieth green dungeon, and she had decided to search for the yellow dungeon after she exited from here.
A group of humans had surrounded her, but instead of worrying, a smile spread across her face as she started the dance of massacre.
With every swing, she severed a head. Green rays of light continuously entered her body, but since the power gap between the group of humans and her was large, it didn't affect her.
In no time, she cleared the area.. She didn't even look at the headless corpses and proceeded forward in search of the leader of the dungeon.
