The moment Rex stepped into the dungeon, a zombie lunged at him. He froze for an instant, then quickly dodged backward. The zombie charged again—
Slash!
Rex spun his sword, and the zombie dropped to the ground, lifeless. A glowing blue jewel appeared above its body.
Before Rex could react further, four more zombies rushed toward him, screaming. Rex squeezed his eyes shut—
And suddenly, his sword burst into flames.
Without hesitation, he dashed forward, his mind calm and focused. The moment he swung his sword—
Whoosh!
All four zombies were obliterated in a single strike.
An hour passed.
By then, Rex had slain twenty-five zombies and gathered twenty-five jewels. The dungeon was completely silent now — there were no zombies left.
Just as Rex was about to leave—
Shhoooom!
A giant Ant Boss appeared before him.
It was a B-Rank boss.
And Rex… wasn't ready for this at all.
"What do I do now…? I'm screwed!" he muttered.
