Close your eyes and become the strongest adventurer

Chapter 16 The First Dawn of the Cruelty of Reality

Hearing this question, Instructor Ma Long grinned and asked:
"Have you ever wondered why the monsters inside seem to never be wiped out even though people go down to the dungeon every day?"

The adventurer who asked the question shook his head.

Instructor Malone:

"Every monster in the dungeon can be resurrected infinitely."

"Each time you kill a monster, the duration of resurrection depends on the strength of the monster."

"The most important thing is that the monster that was killed by you last time will remember the whole process of being killed by you the last time when it is resurrected next time, because the memory of the monster will not be lost due to death."

"So, as the number of battles with you continues to increase."

"The monster will become more and more intelligent, proficient and powerful, and more and more familiar with your fighting style and technique, until it kills you one day."

"The higher the level of the monster, the more obvious this enhancement will be."

The adventurer who asked the question was shocked:

"So, we only have one life, and the monsters in the dungeon have countless lives?!"

Instructor Malone spit out the grass root in his mouth on the ground, took out a new one from his pocket, and chewed it non-stop:
"Yes, so don't try to compete with monsters in the dungeon."

"Unless it is a new dungeon, every monster in the dungeon is a potential battle master."

"Unlike us humans, who are limited by experience, combat skills, and fear of death."

"The limit to the strength of monsters is only their own intelligence level and innate conditions."

Some of the adventurers who asked the question collapsed:
"The monsters in the dungeon are so strong, how can we defeat them?"

Instructor Ma Long shook his head and showed three fingers:
"We adventurers have three main advantages."

"The first is our personal talent. Everyone has talent, but only some special individuals have it among monsters."

"The second is that we can use the weapons, armor, and various equipment produced in the dungeon to maximize the effect. The monsters only rely on their own strength."

"The third is that monsters prefer to fight alone, they advocate individual force, and there is no teamwork. Even if they suddenly encounter a large number of monsters in the dungeon, there will be no organized cooperation. They still fight on their own."

"Therefore, the adventurer team can easily form a situation where more fights are less, and through the crushing advantages of equipment and numbers, they can continue to win and continue to attack."

Having said that, other adventurers spoke:
"Instructor Malone, you haven't answered yet, why didn't the guild announce this important information to our newcomer adventurers?"

Instructor Malone paused and sighed:

"If the guild doesn't say anything, it naturally has its reasons."

"This truth is very cruel, but I must let you know."

"You are able to stand here now, which means that you have passed the hidden screening of apprentice adventurers and are qualified to know part of the truth."

"As we said earlier, even the monsters in the dungeon can constantly learn and grow."

"How can the dungeon itself not learn and grow?"

"When we first explored the dungeon, many geniuses with super abnormal talents died one after another in places where the monsters were weak, and they didn't even have time to grow up, causing us humans to suffer heavy losses. This is precisely because the guild at that time did not realize this. a little."

"For example: If the Adventurer's Guild now widely informs every newcomer who is about to enter the dungeon with the map and monster information on the first floor of the dungeon."

"What do you think will happen next?"

Someone rushed to answer: "Everyone can survive and easily defeat the monsters on the first floor, at least they can save their lives."

Instructor Malone nodded:

"Yeah, the death rate went down, almost nobody died on the first day."

"That's the problem, if no one dies in the dungeon, or if there are too few deaths."

"The dungeon starts thinking, why didn't it capture life?"

"For the dungeon, its only purpose is to keep more adventurers dying in the dungeon, and the vitality of the adventurers will become its best nourishment."

"So it's constantly trying to prey on adventurers, the way a natural hunter preys on prey."

"Smart hunters know that if their traps cannot catch their prey, they need to constantly optimize their traps until they can stably catch their prey."

Having said that, Instructor Ma Long recalled the past:

"The road that could be walked yesterday, suddenly has a trap the next day."

"Traps that were easy to break free yesterday will kill people the next day."

"The monster that could be easily defeated yesterday was completely changed to a new species the next day, and its strength is extremely terrifying."

"In the past, when I was a newcomer like you, I saw all kinds of strong men and those with perverted talents accidentally die in various unexpected and sinister traps on the surface of the dungeon in an extremely aggrieved way. .”

"Until later, some scholars risked their lives to discover the laws and ways of thinking of dungeons."

"As long as there are people in the dungeon who are still attacking and people are dying inside, the dungeon will not change the old way."

"The dungeon doesn't care about the strength of the dead, it only cares about the number of people who died."

"It needs some people to die in it every day, just like a hunter needs to eat his prey every day to survive."

"If it can prey on weaker adventurers, it will not deliberately target those stronger adventurers."

Hearing this, several adventurers felt that their three views had suffered a huge impact.

Someone lost his voice:
"So, the guild deliberately hides the information like this, and uses the lives of us newcomers to feed the dungeon?"

"Why are you so ruthless?"

Instructor Malone shook his head:

"It's not heartlessness, it's the opposite, it's a sacrifice we humans have to make."

"The dungeon has never been a gentle treasure chest, waiting for you to happily explore the treasure and gain glory. It is actually a brutal beast that hunts humans for a living."

"Do you know why there are always some monsters wandering around the entrance of the dungeon every morning?"

"This is the threat of the dungeon to our human society, just like the ant queen keeps sending ants everywhere to find food"

"If no one dies in the dungeon one after another, the dungeon will gradually expand the search range of the monsters inside it layer by layer towards the outside of the dungeon, looking for new humans to attack."

"Don't you think these terrifying monsters in the dungeon can't get out of the dungeon?"

"No, quite the opposite."

"The reason why they don't leave the dungeon is because they don't need it yet."

"If food is delivered to your door every day, why bother to send out a large number of monsters in the dungeon to search for humans in a large area?"

"Therefore, every adventurer's strategy for the dungeon, every adventurer's sacrifice in the dungeon, is to protect the normal human society, and to protect the family behind you to have a normal, peaceful, stable and happy life. everyday life."

At this moment, the adventurers collectively lost their voices.

Some adventurers even fell to their knees with a plop, sobbing with their hands covering their faces, unable to accept the reality:
"It's not like that, it's definitely not like that."

"No! I can't accept it, I can't accept it!"

This adventurer may have a romantic, beautiful, and novel explorer's dream in his heart.

However, at this moment, his dream was completely shattered by the ruthless reality revealed by instructor Ma Long.

Just when the hearts of many adventurers were on the verge of collapse due to the severe impact.

Xuan Yuan asked:
"Instructor Ma Long, since the dungeon will continue to learn and grow, the monsters will become stronger and stronger."

"Does it mean that the dungeon actually traps humans and makes them and monsters stronger and stronger?"

"If this is the case, won't the strength of the dungeon continue to be strengthened by letting a large number of newcomer adventurers die in the dungeon?"

"Isn't this drinking poison to quench thirst?"
