Hellmode ~A Hardcore Gamer Becomes Peerless in Another World with Retro Game Settings~-Chapter 638: Those challenging the Earth Labyrinth

Cecile noticed how confident Merle's group was looking.

They had been attempting to go through the Earth Labyrinth since before Allen went to the Spirit Paradise, and their group had kept expanding during those 2 months of attempts.

(They've been focusing on becoming stronger rather than getting all the way through after all, and Haku went from infantile to adult too.)

'Gyau!!'

"Haku, you've gotten really big."

Haku stood up on his hind legs and spread his wings.

He had grown to be 30 meters long, and his wingspan was 100 meters now.

Matildora was still much bigger, but he was clearly an adult dragon now.

(Now let's see about this…)

Allen turned to look at Tam-Tam behind Merle.

'I became a Tecnoweapon.'

Just a few days before Tam-Tam's Nature had become Rank A, Technoweapon.

His voice was still robotic, but he had become fluent at keeping conversations going.

(Hmhm, both of them have grown a lot. Demigods usually have 100000 of stats, so it's safe to say Haku is at a good level. Tam-Tam could use some growth though, since buffs don't work on him.)

Haku's stats had gotten even higher than Merus.

Dragons would go from infantile, to adult, to elderly, so there was still room for Haku to grow.

Since Merus had the help of the Angel B summon, he was still more powerful, but Haku's large area breath attack had plenty of power too.

Thanks to Haku becoming an adult, hunting Demigod Rank ghosts had become much easier.

Haku and Tam-Tam could simply restrain the ghosts while everyone else blasted them.

Thanks to that, Allen's Level had reached 250.

Even in his past life, dragon allies always had immense strength and powerful breath attacks.

(Habarak and the other blacksmith's skills should also get more powerful soon.)

As they went forward through the Earth Labyrinth, they would get various rewards.

[Rewards from the God of Earth Gaia's Trial]

-Reaching floor 20: Enter Extra Mode

-Reaching floor 40: Obtain a Divine Technique

-Reaching floor 60: Obtain Earth's Blessing

-Reaching floor 80: Obtain the Divine Artifact [Earth Hammer]

-Reaching floor 99: A wish from God of Earth Gaia

Allen looked at the different rewards again, and as he planned their strategy Habarak approached him.

"Here, this is your and Shea's equipment."

"Thank you."

"I'm in your debt."

Allen and Shea received new weapons and armor, wrapped in cloth.

Everything being wrapped in cloth was something Allen had demanded in the past.

Both of them were filled with excitement as they revealed the contents.

-Orichalcum sword: Attack 15000, Attack 15000, Critical Chance +10%

-Orichalcum knuckles: Attack 15000, Attack 15000, Critical Chance +10%

-Orichalcum armor: Endurance 12000, Endurance 12000, Physical Resistance +10%

"Ohh! Have your Skills improved too?"

Habarak had entered Extra Mode, and gained a Divine Technique.

He had been honing his Skills as they went through the Earth Labyrinth too.

The orichalcum sword Allen obtained was shinier than any before, and he firmly held it.

(This is still that fake orichalcum Isiris made though. But it feels powerful.)

"Hmph, I guess so. I've been working for so long that it'd be weird if they didn't. And they mentioned we'll be focusing on going through the dungeon more soon anyway."

He turned to look at Haku, whose equipment required more than 20 times the amount of orichalcum a person's equipment needed.

'Gyau?'

Haku could not understand why they were looking at him.

"Everyone, are you ready?"

Everyone had become incredibly strong during the last 2 months.

For the next hour, Allen explained his strategy to everyone.

He could just use the Bird F summon's Special Skill [Transmission] to let them know inside, but he wanted to tell them before they headed into the dungeon.

He also wanted to keep Cecile's interruptions to the minimum.

"Well, I've confirmed how much all of you have grown, so let's do our best during the next day."

"I can already feel my skin getting messed up again. Can't you do anything about that?"

While everyone seemed excited, Rosalina sighed as she complained.

She always said that being for 24 hours in the Earth Labyrinth was bad for her hair and skin.

Everyone just ignored her complaints though, even Cecile, as they just tolerated her.

They had learned that Rosalina's power was indispensable in the Earth Labyrinth after all.

Allen headed down the stairs leading into the dungeon, and everyone followed him.

'So you're challenging the Earth Labyrinth's Trial. The God of Earth Gaia awaits after floor 99. Your courage and strength will be tested before you get there.'

Floor 99 was not the goal, they actually needed to get through it.

"Yes, we'll challenge it with everything we got. We'll bring all the summons here, and two others I'll summon later."

'What about the spirits you'll take?'

"Sophie, Luck, and Gatoruga will manifest Great Spirits shortly, please confirm them."

The three manifested their Great Spirits.

'Confirmed. Sophie and Luck have 4 Great Spirits, and Gatoruga has 1 Ice Great Spirit. Remember that it's prohibited to switch out these summons or spirits for others inside.'

Then the sculpture gave Allen a mini-sculpture with a display that said [24:00].

Once everything was in order and they crossed the entrance, the display began to count down.

There was no way to stop that countdown, and once it reached [0:00] they would be taken out.

Everyone quickly went to formation and followed Allen's strategy.
