Chen Hai agreed to Veldora's suggestion, and while letting the Goblins continue their preparations, he brought the Storm Dragon back to the danmachi plane.
In the world of that time i got reincarnated as a slime, besides the Storm Dragon, there were many other strong individuals.
Once those guys fought seriously, destroying cities and annihilating the surface would be effortless.
Although Chen Hai had the ability 'City Exists, Person Exists,' meaning he wouldn't lose his life even if defeated by an enemy, there was no need to take risks from the start.
Unless Chen Hai wanted the Storm Dragon to be a one-time tool.
For example —
Having Veldora provoke a Demon Lord, then having a great battle in the Jura Forest.
Then, the experience points would surely be abundant.
But this approach was too extreme.
Chen Hai, holding the concept of 'sustainable development,' decided to take one step at a time.
Neither the 'Corpse' plane nor the 'that time i got reincarnated as a slime' plane were extreme worlds, so there was naturally no reason to rush.
However, thinking about this, Chen Hai couldn't help but wonder which would give more experience points: 'Modern World · Nuclear War' or 'Fantasy World · Demon Lord VS Hero'... If he had the chance, Chen Hai really wanted to test it out.
"Hm? Hey? Are you listening to me? Little Brother Chen Hai, Great Master Chen Hai, Mr. Chen Hai, Master Chen Hai, Great Chen..."
"What is it now?"
Facing the noisy fellow, Chen Hai turned around.
The Storm Dragon, brought to the thirtieth floor, twitched his nose, his tail pointing to a nearby cave.
"I smell something delicious, can we go take a look?"
"Under my rules, Adventurers all have the right to explore the Dungeon, so it's likely Adventurers cooking something."
"I don't quite understand, but something that smells delicious tells me what to do."
Veldora, not bothering with these details, walked along the cave passage.
Each of his movements caused the ground to tremble.
Therefore, when Chen Hai followed him to the corner at the end of the corridor, he saw three figures in a spacious hall made of stalactites.
The three of them raised their weapons, looking sternly at the passage Chen Hai had emerged from.
Then—
One of them recognized Chen Hai.
"Lord Chen Hai?!"
"Why are you here?"
"Are you creating monsters? Or... is that dragon the BOSS of this floor!?"
After saying this, the three women nervously stared at the Storm Dragon behind Chen Hai.
Chen Hai also took a look at them.
"You are from the 'Loki Familia's..."
The three women began to introduce themselves.
"I am Anakitty Autumn."
"Lune Yarushie! The Second Army's Healer and Supporter!"
"My name is Aile Crete, also part of the 'Loki Familia,' and I came here to search for demon ore."
The twenty-eighth floor was a safe floor, so Chen Hai was not surprised by their presence here.
After hearing their answers, the three women still nervously stared at the Storm Dragon.
It must be said that this guy's oppressive aura was indeed very strong.
"Then, that... Lord Chen Hai, who exactly is next to you...?"
"He's not a Dungeon BOSS, he won't attack you, so don't worry."
"Even if you say so..."
The three women remained motionless.
Chen Hai then looked at the dishes in front of them.
"What delicious things are you making? This guy is very interested."
"Corn chowder, it has fragrant herbs that Demeter Familia gave to Loki a few days ago, which can enhance the taste and aroma."
"Is there any more? He wants to try it."
At this, the three women quickly brought the corn chowder to Chen Hai.
"Please help yourself!"
"..."
"We'll take our leave!"
"No need to be afraid."
"Thank you for the reminder, but we're going back to rest! Goodbye! Lord Chen Hai!"
The girls had no intention of staying.
Chen Hai looked at the corn chowder in front of him.
"This little bit wouldn't even fill a gap in your teeth, would it?"
"I never eat to fill my stomach; if I needed to replenish nutrition that way, I'd already be in the 'infinite prison'! So I just want to taste it."
Hearing Veldora's explanation, Chen Hai tossed out the corn chowder in his hand.
The next moment, the Storm Dragon opened his mouth and swallowed the chowder, which wasn't even enough to fill a gap in his teeth, along with the pot.
"Oh, oh, good taste."
Veldora gave a good review.
It seems 'cuisine' has good appeal in all worlds.
Perhaps—
Attracting powerful individuals through food is a method.
The problem is lacking an excellent chef.
Recalling the gourmet anime he had watched before, his Dungeon would connect one day.
"Regarding your arrangements... I plan to send you to the 'Abyss Floor,' where it won't cause panic among Adventurers."
"That sounds a bit scary."
"If I wanted to get rid of you, I wouldn't have let you out."
"How do we get there?"
"Teleportation."
Chen Hai finished speaking and teleported with Veldora.
— — — —
— — — —
The 'Abyss Floor' of the Dungeon is vast.
Its size easily exceeds all the hundred floors above combined.
It was this scale of special space that now welcomed a new resident.
"Ignis!"
Chen Hai shouted into the void.
After a few seconds, the Death Dragon's figure appeared from afar.
Veldora immediately looked over.
His expression instantly became serious, and a special stream of light, caused by high-concentration 'magicules,' even appeared on his body.
Bang!!!
The Death Dragon landed on the platform, rubbed his head against Chen Hai's right hand, and then his gaze fell on Veldora.
"Little Brother Chen Hai, this is..."
"My friend—Death Dragon Ignis Pharos."
"Death Dragon..."
Veldora appeared very wary.
This made Chen Hai curious as to which of the Storm Dragon and Death Dragon had a higher level and stronger power.
"Unlike the Host's power level, which is increased by experience, the power levels of other individuals change according to the strength of their own abilities; it is comprehensive data."
System 537 gave an explanation at this moment.
In short, Chen Hai was a special existence.
His power level was more for strengthening his entries.
While other creatures were completely different.
"Furthermore, there is a huge difference in strength between individuals of different power levels, for example, the gap between LV.110 and LV.120 is something that LV.110 cannot catch up to even if he becomes fifty times stronger."
The higher the level, the more so it was.
Except for Chen Hai.
Because his power level came from experience points.
And these levels would increase the strength of his entries.
Although he had complained that 'power level = experience points' would suffice, without conversion, the system did not accept it.
"Because it's more intuitive."
Wouldn't experience points be better?
That being said, the system's original setting was like this, so Chen Hai had nothing to say.
"The Host's level is the 'foundation' of the entry."
"Assuming the entry is 'Gluttony,' which allows the owner to eat many things, then after the entry is fully evolved, the objects of predation can become time, space, and various powerful beings."
Similar to the Demon Lord's Predator?
Moreover, Chen Hai only needed to strengthen his entries, not reincarnate to gain golden fingers.
In other words—
Chen Hai himself could create the golden fingers that only reincarnators could possess!
So how strong was the Death Dragon?
The system's explanation for this was also very simple.
"The Death Dragon is your 'core existence,' the origin of this 'Abyss Floor,' second only to you."
From this perspective, the Death Dragon's LV.120 was actually terrifyingly strong!!!
