Entering the Dungeon, Mike, Izzy, Ryder, and Rohan took different directions.

Although the poisonous air in their lungs stung a bit, Ray's potion quickly neutralized the toxins.

Behind them, Ray waited patiently at the entrance, the mana in his body slowly diffusing into the Dungeon as his Skill materialized a Map in front of him.

Without delay, multiple dots blinked into existence on the Map, pointing to the locations of the various monsters as well as Ray's students.

Not even five minutes after entering the Dungeon, all four had already engaged in combat.

Mike was hunting a small group of Poison Oxen with the help of his Spirits, Ryu and Yuna.

Izzy was shooting down huge Purple-scaled Silk Moths from on top of a tree like a ninja in the shadows.

Ryder was ruthlessly cutting down snake-type monsters as he moved forward, like an unstoppable tank.

Even Rohan, whom Ray was the most worried about, was doing well, despite having his best Skill sealed up. His Bo Staff skills were pretty good.

'I guess he's the type who does better when he's not being watched by others.'

"So, are we going to watch from a distance the whole time?" Deus asked, letting out a big yawn, evidently tired from searching Dungeons for the past three days.

"For their safety, it would be best that one of us continuously monitors the Map." Ray turned to face his Spirit.

Understanding what the look meant, Deus let out a loud sigh. "Just when I thought I could get some rest...What do you plan to do while I look after the kids?"

"Do you remember what you read about the Sanskriti Archipelago from the novel summary I wrote on my laptop?"

"The Sanskriti Archipelago...It's a cluster of islands that follow the cultures of various pre-Catastrophe countries...Home to numerous Dungeons, however, most of them are Loop Dungeons meaning, they have an unending horde of monsters with low-quality spoils except the ones dropped by Boss Monsters. So the Hero League and Guilds prefer not to raid Dungeons here...However, two years from now, Heroes will realize that the Dungeons in the Archipelago are special一they have high-ranking Artifacts hidden away in their Dungeons."

As Deus remembered the details of their current location, realization dawned on him.

"You are going to find the Artifact in this Dungeon!"

"Bingo!" Ray awarded his Spirit full points.

But as Deus scanned the Map in front of them, he realized a slight problem.

"I can't see the Artifact or the Hidden Dungeon anywhere on this Map." Deus looked back at Ray in concern. "Are you sure this place isn't a dud?"

"There's a simple reason for that. Remember when we fell into that 'Jurassic Park' Dungeon from the 'Snow Forest' where we met those two Beastmen."

"The one we fell into when the chasm broke, right? Now that you mention it, I don't think it popped up on our Map at that time either."

"Yeah, it didn't. Appraisal can only map out the places where my mana can infiltrate. So unless we find the seal of the Hidden Dungeon and break it, that Dungeon won't appear on my Map either."

"So you want me to keep watch on the kids while you search for the Hidden Dungeon, right?"

"Yeah. Of course, I will try to keep an eye on them too, but if they get in danger, you will react faster."
