Chapter 7: Chapter 6: Underlevelled in a Dungeon for Loot

It would be risky, but it's technically possible for me to survive down at level 4 according to the [Dungeon Professor]. If I wanted to advance at the fastest rate, I would need to risk my life or at least take some risk.

I began making my way back to the main city area. I had walked quite a distance into the green open fields so I needed to trudge back to the market area where I began. The soft grass brushed against my legs as I walked through the field. 

After a few minutes, I made it back to the main market area.

[You]: where are the dungeons?

[Dungeon Professor]: you'll have to travel a few hundred metres south of where you are, you're currently in the marketplace

[You]: when I get there, do I just enter?

[Dungeon Professor]: you have to go to the guild first to register a profile and then you can enter the dungeon with your Dungeon Access Card

[You]: okay

I followed his directions and made my way to a new area. Instead of flourishing markets and small stalls, there were many more large buildings and big skyscraper-like towers which sold armour and weapons. Right in the centre of the path, there was a large town hall building, at the doorway, there was a big sign that said 'Adventurer's Guild'.

I made my way inside and looked around at various people who were eating and drinking. It seemed this was not only an administrative building but also a restaurant. I looked around before walking over to the reception area.

I was greeted by a guild woman who grabbed a pen of paper from her desk as she walked over to the counter.

"Oh, I haven't seen you around, are you new?" She asked in a pretty excited voice.

"Oh, um, yeah."

"I assume you're here to register a profile then."

"Yeah."

She leaned under the counter and grabbed out a form. 

"Here just fill this out."

After filling out her sheet, I passed it back to her and she took a quick looked at it. I honestly didn't remember what my height was but I assumed that I was around 182, it was probably a guess on the lower side but I didn't want to look cocky.

"Yep, that's all good!"

She stamped it before putting it into a pile. She pointed and showed me where the notice board was in case I wanted to join a party or take on a quest. Other than that, she said I was free to go and handed me a map of the area.

With the administration all complete, I began making my way toward the dungeon. It was a very large stone building that wasn't very tall, however, it had a very wide, grand entrance and there were quite a lot of different people gathered in front. Various people wore different types of armour and weilded widely different weapons, from heavy to light to no amour, from swords to bows to axes, the variation was quite large.

I made my way into the wide mouth of the dungeon and saw several elevators. The inside wasn't all that crowded so there was no wait for the elevators. I assumed that some people might have already finished for the day and thus were gathering outside.

I walked over to an elevator and waited for the door to open. Beside the elevator door, there was a big poster with some information about the difficulty levels.

{Information for New Adventurers}

This is the recommended strength stat you should have before you try to confront each level.

Level 1 - 10

Level 2 - 50

Level 3 - 70

Level 4 - 100

Level 5 - 210

Do not go beyond level 5 unless you are an advanced adventurer. The rule of thumb is to stay in the first few levels for the first few weeks of adventuring.

I only had a strength stat of 21 at the moment, however, with the [Dungeon Professor]'s help and my speed stat, I should be able to at least survive at lower levels. I obviously could start at an easier level, however, I wanted to grow, and I wanted to grow fast.

With that in mind, I made my way inside the elevator. I pressed the button to reach level 4. Next to the buttons, there was another note, 'If you want to travel to a level lower than 5, use the elevator located on level 5.'

It seemed this elevator only travelled to level 5, it made sense, I guess they didn't want people jumping the gun and trying to go too far out of their skill range. 

After some rumbling as the somewhat rustic elevator grinded on the side of the rocky cave, it came to a sudden stop. The doors slammed open and I was exposed to the dark, dangerous cave. Slowly, I made my way outside of the elevator and looked around. There was hardly any light aside from a few torches, there didn't seem to be any monsters near the entrance so I ventured further inside.

The ground was moist from droplets of water falling from the roof of the cave. 

I guess this was the dungeon.

I began walking forwards and carefully observed the area around me. The stone was rough and uneven, like the inside of a mine. There seemed to be a large room straight ahead. Eventually, I found a dagger on the ground, as I bent down to pick it up, I heard the screech of a bat. I jolted in shock however it wasn't attacking me.

It wasn't too bad of a weapon, it had the same attack as my {Spiky Metal Bat}, however, it was much lighter. I considered changing my main weapon but I worried that it might break since it appeared to be quite worn out. 

I decided to just keep walking and see what I could find. I looked around and saw a few other random things on the ground. I seemed to be able to put them into my inventory so I didn't have to carry them around which was convenient.
