The Martial Unity

He actually felt less tense the moment they entered the dungeon, but he couldn't show that on his face, he needed to maintain a severe expression. His spatial senses swept across the dungeons as he noted the location of a few monsters in the general vicinity. A katoblepas, a bloodfury rabbit that appeared to have survived from the second floor, and even an inland Shionel Taipan.

Rui had no problem with these monsters attacking their group, in fact, he welcomed it. It would be a good way to end this operation quickly if one of the members of this group were taken down early due to a surprise monster attack.

In that case, he would be able to finish the twelfth floor without any issues whatsoever, and he would be just fine.

Of course, he highly doubted that something like that would happen. The Martial Squires that had been gathered for the Voidhunter team were not amateurs, they were all Martial Artists who were nominally more powerful than himself. Most of them would not succumb to a surprise attack, even in circumstances like the Shionel Dungeon where their senses were hampered.

They followed the scouted paths that were confirmed to lead to a particular floor. These paths were marked and indicated by the Shionel Adventurer Guild. Doing this ensured that Martial Artists could enter lower floors without getting lost, ensuring that Martial Artists didn't have to try and scour the extensive maze of tunnels inside the dungeon. Every time a new floor was discovered, the Shionel Dungeon went through an effort of finding large enough tunnels that connected existing floors to new ones that adventurers could use.

Despite having a secured route, there was still a deep tension as they traveled through them.

"Alright, we've reached the first floor, be sure to stay together while we go down to the second floor. Do not get lost, and do not break away from the group or from the scouted paths. Getting lost in this maze of a dungeon is suicide," She warned them once more.
