Chapter 131: Raiding the Mountain Monkey's Lair part 2

With the first floor all cleared, Kayn and the others swiftly set up their camp so that they can rest and call it a day.

As they sat in their respective resting places, each of them let out a sigh of relief.

"What do we do with all the loot?" Gilbert suddenly asked.

Looking behind them, they instantly saw countless loot just lying on the ground, untouched and shining brightly as if to attract them to pick them up.

"Now that you've mentioned it," Friedrich looks at Kayn.

Although he and Chastine are the leaders, they are aware that they wouldn't have such an opportunity if it wasn't for Kayn voluntarily giving up on it.

Moreover, they don't want to offend Kayn knowing about his background, especially now that they've already found out the method to get out of 'The Bridge'. Once they return back to Earth, the influence they hold here would no longer have similar value and effect as it was. It would be the likes of Kayn's status that would matter.

In that case, if they offend Kayn, the latter would have every reason to make their lives difficult back on Earth.

The others also turned to look at Kayn as well, evidently being aware of the same reason. That includes Jude and Charles as they got to learn of Kayn's identity during the journey.

"You can divide it amongst yourselves and just leave the useless items to me. But, I hope no one will compete with me to get the Mountain Heart Flower on the third floor," Kayn replied.

Even though there are countless loots, he honestly doesn't see any value in keeping any of them. As a matter of fact, they'll just waste some storage space inside his Storage Rings as he doesn't need such low-value and useless items.

This is probably the result of knowing about the future. He literally knows every location of almost each and every powerful and useful item inside the 'Tower'. It's pretty much just a matter of whether he wants or needs them because if ever he does, he would simply go and get them.

"So you're telling us that you'll just be keeping the flower and the useless items while the rest will belong to us?" Chastine wanted to confirm.

"I barely did anything," Kayn used it as an excuse to end the conversation quickly.

"Alright,"

As soon as they received Kayn's signal, their exhausted body seems to fire up once again as they instantly stood up and started racing with each other to get whatever items they could get their hands on.

"It seems like they have a tacit understanding with one another that whoever lay their hands on the item first gets to automatically keep them," Natas said as a remark.

"Not necessarily," Kayn muttered after noticing Friedrich and Chastine uttering commands to their respective squad members. "Its most likely a battle between the two squads on who could touch more items,"

"I pity Jude and Charles,"

Since there are only two of them, Jude and Charles could only helplessly go for those items that were ignored by Friedrich and Chastine's squad.

Occasionally, Jude and Charles would turn to look at Kayn, evidently wanting to ask for his help as they used to be part of the same party. Too bad though because Kayn doesn't want to waste any energy and stamina to perform such a mundane task. Instead, he stood up and went to the entrance of the second floor of the Mountain Monkey's Lair.

Honestly, he is still not feeling tired. Well, it was true that he barely did anything, but it was also because he is very experienced at fighting.

Unlike the others, he only does things precisely and with no waste of movements. Like for example, when he wants to stab his target, he'd only be using the muscles that are required to perform such an action. If he wants to add more strength to it, he would also just simply use the required parts of the body for the job. Contrary to him, Friedrich and the others move based on the motion to perform a stabbing action.

He can't blame them though since he was also like that when he was still an amateur. He'll just leave it to fate for the day they'll finally learn such a useful technique.

"According to the map, we would not only be facing Mountain Monkeys on the second floor. We will also be facing Earth Gorilla," Kayn said as he took out the map from his Storage Ring to confirm.

Earth Gorillas are the exact same kind as Flaming Gorillas. The only difference is their element.

"I've already killed a Flaming Gorilla when I was still a mere Superhuman, so it shouldn't be that difficult anymore for me to defeat an Earth Gorilla with my current strength,"

After a few dozen of steps, he finally reached the other side of the entrance.

Unlike the first floor, the second floor is a completely open space. There were no stalagmites or stalactites to be seen, only rocks of various sizes.

However, there are countless holes in the ground and up in the ceiling, and tunnels on the side of the cave.

"It seems like the second floor is where the monsters take residence,"

As he observes a few tens of meters of distance in front of him, he spotted signs of greenery, such as trees and grasses.

"There's an underground river nearby,"

That's the only explanation why plant life could still exist deep underground.

Looking at the map, he soon confirmed the existence of an underground river somewhere nearby that area.

"We should probably set up camp over there instead of the entrance to the second floor," Kayn expressed his thoughts.

"Unlike the first floor, I could barely see any monsters around," Natas informs Kayn. "It could be safe, but we can't be certain yet,"

"Should I scout deeper?"

"If you're confident in keeping your presence undetected, then why not?"

That was the only concern.

Kayn replied. "I can try,"

Without wasting any time, Kayn started making his way to the area with greenery.

Along the way, he would occasionally let Natas check on the holes in order to get a clear understanding and confirm what is inside.

As expected, they were houses where Mountain Monkeys and Earth Gorillas take a rest.

"I suggest that we light them up on fire and block their exit," Natas suddenly suggested.

"That's one method," Kayn nodded his head before continuing to move.

As he got closer to his destination, he soon saw some rough wooden huts constructed on top of the big trees.

"Are monsters capable of building houses?" Kayn wonders. He might have witnessed a lot of things in the 'Tower', but he would never claim that he has seen everything.

"Unless they could turn into a humanoid form, then I don't think so," Natas shook his head.

"I'll hold here for the meantime while you go and scout those wooden huts," Kayn halted his steps.

Natas immediately flew to the wooden huts to see who are living inside of them.

Not long after, Natas returned with a look of total disbelief on his face.

"What's the matter?"

"Goblins…"

"What?!" Kayn exclaimed in shock before quickly covering his mouth. Fortunately, there weren't any holes or tunnels nearby him right now. Otherwise, that shout alone would have woken up the sleeping monsters inside.

"How?"

"I don't know…" Natas was also surprised.

The Races that inhabit the 'Tower' couldn't be found anywhere else other than the 'Tower' unless a Dungeon Outbreak happened which allowed them to enter Earth. Although 'The Bridge' is still part of the 'Tower', it isn't technically inside the 'Tower', thus the only living beings that can exist here are monsters.

In addition to that, every single time the 'Tower' goes to another planet, they actually create another 'The Bridge' as this place functions as a pathway that connects the planet to the 'Tower', thus it's impossible for any living creatures, especially other Races, to remain in 'The Bridge'.

Last and the most important reason of all, there's no way for the inhabitants of the 'Tower' to enter 'The Bridge' because the Entry Crystal can only be used by the inhabitants of the planet.

"There's only one explanation for this. Ikol secretly brought them here…"

The only method to bring an inhabitant of the 'Tower' to 'The Bridge' would be through the assistance of the Gods.

"He's definitely scheming something," Kayn immediately thought.

What else would the God of Mischief do by bringing other Races to the kind of place like the 'The Bridge'? Furthermore, this place is basically the perfect place to scheme something as it barely attracts any attention. Even Natas already admitted that he doesn't pay that much attention to the events that took place in 'The Bridge'.

"Let's continue investigating," Kayn wants to know what exactly Ikol is scheming about. If it's just one of his many tricks and schemes in 'The Bridge' or he is experimenting with something that he wants to apply in the 'Tower', then it would be fine. However, if it has to do with affecting his goal of destroying the 'Tower', then it would be a completely different story.
