Overgeared

Chapter 45

Winston Castle’s dungeon.

I was trapped in a solitary room on the third underground floor, but was rescued by Euphemina and was now looking for Huroi.

“Damn! I’ve looked everywhere, but I can’t find him. Where is that bastard Huroi trapped?”

“I don’t think he is on this floor. Maybe we should go down further?”

“What? The third floor isn’t the end?

“According to information I received, there are four floors.”

“I have to go down to the fourth floor…”

The time limit for rescuing Huroi was 1 hour and 10 minutes. I was becoming more and more irritated. If I exceeded the time limit and failed to rescue Huroi, I would receive a really big penalty. I had to find and rescue Huroi as quickly as possible.

But Winston Castle’s dungeon was very large and the corridors were as complex as a maze, making it difficult to find the way. I decided to follow Euphemina’s opinion, but it wasn’t easy to find the stairs heading down to the fourth floor.

“Hey, you! Are you sure that the fourth floor really exists? The third floor isn’t the end? Maybe Huroi is on the second or first floor…”

“I swept through the first and second floors while looking for you, but I didn’t see a prisoner called Huroi. And the fourth floor really does exist. I received the information from a trustworthy person.”

“Uhh… But I can’t see the way down to the fourth floor…”

“Stop whining. I’m annoyed.”

“…Yes, sorry.”

Time continued to pass while we wandered around. Before I knew it, there were only 50 minutes remaining. Meanwhile, the pursuit of the soldiers didn’t stop and there were traps installed in the corridors.

‘But I’m glad. The traps are so obvious that I don’t need to worry about falling for them.’

This prison was made of rocks. The floors, the walls and the ceiling, everything was made of rocks. In addition, it was underground, so sunlight couldn’t reach it. In other words, it was a space where blades of grass couldn’t grow.

But funnily enough, I saw places on the floor where flowers and grass were growing. In addition, there was fruit and bread hanging from the ceiling. There were also high-quality items that didn’t match the prison space hanging on the walls.

It was clearly an unnatural sight!

‘They are all traps.’

Even a person with the intelligence of an elementary school student would be able to notice such ridiculous traps.
