Jake called summons to his side.


    Because most of them could easily stay on him, the coldness of the dungeon didn''t pose any threat. As long as Jake radiated pleasant warmth, everyone should be fine.


    Those legendary existences weren''t so weak that they couldn''t deal with coldness for a few minutes during the battle.


    Jake turned to Ender.


    This baby eagle wasfortable in coldness.


    Perhaps the darkness was even colder.


    "We''re at the entrance. Make a nest, and I will stuff it with mana potions… then we will test your range and adapt to it," Jake said.


    While Ender looked around, the siblings patiently waited to see the little eagle''s show. They were aware that Jake''s summons yed crucial roles in his mining n in the dungeon.


    Ender''s eyes swept across the cave.


    It was much bigger for him since he was so tiny.


    It wasn''t a smooth ce without obstacles. The ground was littered with rocks, holes, and even traps! Many adjacent to-wall paths were heading up and even down to various corridors'' mouths that led deeper into the dungeon.


    Excluding the epic boss'' room, there were three dungeon floors, after all.


    The entire space was bright because of the scities and shiny orbs emitting pale blue light. This added charm and excitement to this underground-themed dungeon.


    Trying to steal those orbs was also banned, as they were precious light sources here.


    Upon noticing that someone tried to mine those scities, anyone would raise his weapon at them!


    s, those orbs hadn''t stretched across the entire floor. Many corridors alsocked this light, making them more dangerous.


    Jake and his team had already decided to go in one of them soon.


    After finding the safe spot to create his darkness nest, Ender used the newly gained skill and dipped into his special ce like his predecessor. It felt so like home that Ender spent a few minutes perched there.


    Medusa''s hiss brought him outside and back to the invisible zone.


    While these two summons exchanged biting nces, Jake tossed in a few mana potions. As though having its own life, the nest of darkness gobbled them up.


    Those potions were safely stored inside.


    "Is there any limit capacity?" Jake asked.


    Ender turned his baby face left and right several times.


    "Sweet. It seems the range will be the only problem. It''d be best to move across the shadows to keep risks minimal," Jake thought aloud.


    He caught the siblings agreeing with him. It seemed these two were now interested in Ender''s prospects.


    Prince mused aloud, "Are you trying to store your ores here?"


    "Yeah," Jake nodded.


    "If you could connect it with a room in the tavern, you could increase your efficiency even tenfold! You''d be swarmed with ores, my dark horse! That''s such a brilliant idea," Prince said, praising Jake and Ender''s ingenuity.


    Jake smiled, "If Ender runs out of mana, those items probably will be disposed of in darkness. It has its own risks, but if I have the means to y differently, it''d be foolish not to try anything new."


    Prince apuded aloud! He was like a fan!


    While Jake had that much on his shoulders, Sin ckberry left her brother with Jake and studied the surroundings. Countless yers were fighting little humanoid wolves that looked like nightmares from cheap horror movies.


    She spotted a few yers from the guild that had hunted her and her brother.


    ''We can''t fight at the entrance… way too many people are here. If we go straight to one of those corridors, we can get more room for ourselves and use the dungeon to our advantage. We may stumble upon an ore vein, which would make Damien and Archer stick to it. I should have marked all veinsst time we''ve been here…''


    Because Prince wanted to fight the epic boss so much, he didn''t bother with mining despite having a miner subss and title. In this case, he''d fallen into the basket of eager first-timers in the dungeon.


    Sin ckberry wanted to avoid mining at the beginning because she wanted to see whether Jake could help them execute revenge here and see more of his skills.


    ''We will follow our previous route. I can only bet on them still hunting in those areas,'' Sin ckberry decided. Without asking anyone for an agreement, she took her team to the corridor sloping down.


    Prince noticed that it was the same path they had taken before. He didn''t say anything to Jake.


    Jake was also not really paying any attention to that. He understood why he had teamed up with these two and was ready to build a proper rtionship with them.


    Ender was also following him in the darkness, his nest stretching without any difficulties. Jake only wondered whether he had passed him enough mana potions and whether Ender could carry them.


    The darkness seemed to have been on their side, though.


    Atst, Jake''s team stopped.


    Three yers were ahead of them. Their sses were tank, swordsman, and healer. This group used a groove on the corridor''s wall to trap a humanoid little wolf. The tank used his weight to hold the monster in one ce while the sword mercilessly thrust his sword into the gap.


    The healer cast an offensive skill at intervals as well.


    These three wore crazy, cruel smiles, enjoying each second of the monster''s howls, pain, and blood.


    ''Is that what animal abusers look like?'' Jake thought. He didn''t believe he looked the same as those guys despite ying the same game and killing monsters all the same.


    Prince and Sin ckberry''s lips curved as well.


    Jake chuckled, "Are these three one of the people that have hunted you?"


    Prince replied, "Look at that tank''s helmet! You think a trash like him would ever be able to afford this?"


    Jake sneered, "Your other self is leaking out, Prince."


    "About time yours also leaked out, my dark horse! There are only three of them! Let''s trump over them and tell others that we have returned to get them all! An announcement time!" Prince screamed.


    He tore himself away from the invisible zone, appearing like a death knight from the shadows.


    His tall self loomed over the yers who were still busy dealing with the monster.


    His nickname turned red.


    Prince sneered, "Missed me?"


    Given the party''s circumstances, the healer turned around first.


    He screamed upon seeing the expensive armor, "He''s back!"


    The swordsman shouted at him while digging into the monster''s flesh, "Who''s back?!"


    "That cringe bastard who says he makes more money daily than all our familiesbined yearly! His hot sister is also back with him!"


    "His sister is here?!" the swordsman turned around, excited to see the beautiful woman he wanted to hunt so much.


    s, exactly when he hadid his eyes on her, an arrow pierced through his skull.


    He was level twenty-one, so he had survived the blow.


    The flowing down blood, however, obscured his eyes, causing his face to contort into a devilish mask. He hadn''t seen her face at all—it happened so fast!


    "Ame archer is with them?!" the swordsman caught the arrow lodged in his forehead, then yanked it off. He wiped off the blood in his eyes and checked his stats.


    All curses toward archery clogged up his throat.


    Half of his health points were gone.


    Just like that.


    A single arrow…
