The Evolution Of A Goblin To The Peak-Novel

Chapter 254 - Dark Light of Eternal Dungeon: Treasures

"Ah, don’t worry about the price of the corpse. A small amount of meat is nothing to this giant body. They wouldn’t be able to notice it. We could also say that they got damaged in the battle." Souta said to them as he opened his arms. He then turned around and looked at the giant spider, "Well, let’s get to work."

He approached the corpse of the spider under the eyes of everyone and slice a piece of meat using the vajra sword. Everyone helped him and cooked the meat of the spider. After they cooked it, they ate it.

This was everyone’s first time eating the meat of the third evolution monster except for Alice. But Alice didn’t tell them that she ate the meat of the third evolution monster in her hometown. She acted like she never has eaten it before.

"Hu~" Souta nodded with a satisfied expression. The savory meat of this giant spider was amazing in its own way. Not just the taste, his stats also increased by eating this meat.

All of his stats increased by twenty-five points. It was a great improvement for him. But in the future, if he ate another meat of the third evolution monster then the benefits that he would receive were not as great as this one.

"Here!" Souta said as he gave some meat to Yuko.

"It’s so good!!" Bryan said as he put a piece of meat in his mouth.

After they finished eating, Souta went on top of the giant spider. He was looking down at the black-colored gem on its back. It’s the monster orb of the White Jade Spider. Its size was as huge as the ball of basketball.

"This thing is the strength of the monster and also the weakness of the monster." He muttered as he squatted down and touch the monster orb. Just by touching the monster orb, Souta felt that the best feram inside it was preventing him from using his mana. It was disrupting the flow of mana inside his body.

The energy inside this orb was enormous. No wonder a lot of people wanted to get their hands on a monster orb.

"Really bad," Souta commented as he squinted his eyes while looking at the monster orb. He slowly removed his palm on the orb and was feeling excited knowing that he would gain this power in the future.

Simply looking in the future, he would have the strength of a player from version 3 while it was still version 2. That way, he would be able to wreak havoc in the demon army.

"Let’s forget it."

He shook his head and placed those thoughts in the back of his mind. Souta looked at his comrades and asked, "Everyone, are you ready?!"

"Yes!!" Brando, Bryan, and the rest replied to him in a loud voice.

Yuko also stood up and walked beside Souta. She knew that they were going to leave this room right now.

"We’re going to check our reward from taking down this White Jade Monster," Souta said with a wide grin on his face.

Behind the ground was an opened metallic door. They came inside this room through that metallic door. In the opposite direction of this room was another huge metallic door. If the group wanted to explore the rest of the dungeon then they needed to go through it.

Besides the two huge metallic doors, there was another small door at the side of the room. In the game, the players would rally towards it to check their rewards quickly after killing the raid boss.

But this time, Souta and the rest could actually check the treasures inside the room. There were no restrictions in this "real world" unlike in the game. But he didn’t do so as it would distract his comrades who were fighting the giant spider.

"This is what I’m waiting for," Ginvi said with an excited look. Charise and Donna looked at each other and smile.

Souta turned around and walked towards the small metal door. Everyone followed him from behind.

He pushed the door and it revealed a room full of thick white webs. He was surprised as he saw the egg of the spider at the ceiling of the room. At the center of the room was a small tree with fruits hanging on it. Below the tree was the spoils from defeating the giant spider.

"This...? So the spider is protecting this egg." Lumilia exclaimed when she saw the egg.

"The egg is a consolation prize..." Souta muttered while gazing at it. In the game, there’s no egg inside this treasure room. But... How the hell did that huge spider placed this egg inside this small room?

"Step back." He said to his comrades and black tentacles emerged from the ground. It covered the tree and the treasures inside the room.

Yuko used the [Burning Shout] trait skill to burn the egg along with the webs inside the room.

Boom!

Now that the room was clean, they could enter the room without being bothered by those sticky webs.

"Shit! You’re a merciless person you know that." Ginvi commented while glancing inside the room.

"You too," Souta replied with a smile before he entered the room. The temperature inside the room was quite high, maybe because of Yuko’s trait skill.

He canceled the [Shadow Bind] spell and the black tentacles that were covering the tree and the treasures dissipated in thin air.

"Oh? It’s really what you call treasures!" Souta commented as he checked the treasures on the ground. There were tier 1 and tier 2 spell books and some powerful combat arts.

"Let me see. Let me see." Bryan sat down beside him. Lumilia and the rest followed and started to check the treasures.

Twelve tier 1 spells

Five tier 2 spells

Fifteen combat arts

Thirteen mid-grade mana potions and five low-grade of the same potion

Thirty mid-grade health potions and twenty-one low-grade of the same potion

Five defense enhancing potion

Three strength enhancing potion

Fifteen permanent strength enhancing potion

Three kilograms of silver ore

Five and a half kilograms of gold ore

Twenty blue grade weapons and thirteen armors of the same grade

Seventeen purple grade weapons and five armors of the same grade

One orange grade weapon

Three health spirit apple

Lumilia wrote down the treasures in her note one by one. They would divide it fairly according to everyone’s contribution in the battle.

As the leader of the group, Souta has the right to choose one treasure that he wanted from their spoils. He rubbed his chin as he looked at the treasures in his eyes.

He didn’t care about tier 1 and tier 2 spellbooks. He had skill tree and points in the Ladro Institute. He could redeem one or two tier 2 spells with his remaining points. Of course, he checked the spell first before deciding that he didn’t want it. If there were rare and useful spells for him then he would take it.

The silver ore and gold ore didn’t pique his interest. He had a lot of platinum coins in his wallet so a bunch of silver ore and gold ore didn’t matter to him.

The equipments grade was too low for him. Blue and purple grade? He could buy dozens of this with his money. The orange-grade weapon was no use to him. His current weapon was a dark grade and he was about to complete his universal grade artifacts. Plus, the weapon was a bow. His bow mastery in his [Weapon Mastery] skill was one level 2. It would decrease his fighting strength if he switched his weapon to bow.

In fact, no one among his comrades uses this type of weapon. Brando was using shield, Yujin was sword just like him, and Alice was spear. Also, Lumilia, Lynn, Ginvi, and Evren were all using staff or book as catalysts to strengthen their spells. The rest was using swords and daggers.

In the end, Souta chooses the health spirit apple. These fruits would permanently increase his health points so he chooses it. He could get the permanent strength enhancing potions if he had a lot of money in the market. He could buy it in any large countries so it doesn’t interest him that much compare to this fruit.

After that, they divided the spoils fairly. The ones who got the permanent enhancing potions were Bryan, Charise, Donna, Brando, and Finsi. Of course, they also got some of the combat arts and equipment.

Lynn and the rest of the mages took the spell books and some weapons. There were high-grade staff and book catalysts and it’s important for their class.

After some thought, Souta decided to buy the orange-grade weapon since they were going to sell why not buy it using his own money. He would give them some money later after they returned to the Eternal Empire.

Everyone was satisfied with what they got in the treasure room.

"Next is the path beyond this door."
