Apocalypse Monster
Chapter 194: Entering Dungeon Tower 2.0
He didn't know if Ainsley heard it, but he wished he hadn't heard it. Although he believed in Ainsley, he still could not risk his own life.
Natan stood up while patting the grass clinging to her coat due to the wind earlier, and tidying up her messy hair. "Ainsley, is there any difference other than the number of floors and monster levels?"
"There ..." Ainsley looked at Natan, then looked at Dungeon Tower 2.0 and added, "First, there are no more missions like killing monsters in the numbers that are already set to go up to the next floor. Second, there's a floor-selecting system, you get to choose the floors you've explored. Then, you can also directly go up to the next floor by going to the gate in a certain place."
Hearing that, Natan nodded small and smiled faintly. With the new features of the Dungeon Tower, he did not need to enter it from the ground floor which was a waste of time.
"Mom, I want to go inside. Mommy wanna come?"
Brianna waved her hand asking Natan to come over.
Nathan walked in front of Brianna and sat down, waiting for what he wanted to do.
Brianna caught Natan's head, then gave him another kiss on his forehead and cheeks. "Mother lives outside. I'll take Natan's place in Longquan Mountain."
Natan really couldn't fight back as her face was covered in lipstick, and it seemed like she shouldn't remove it.
"Then I went in with the others. If there's a problem, please let me know."
Brianna raised her hand and gave her the sign “Ok”.
Natan looked at the team he was going to bring, all of them present except Jia Meiya and Xia Feiya. The two of them did not want to join, the first was because Jia Meiya felt that she was too old, and Xia Feiya who was too young.
Naturally Jia Meiya said it only with Natan, it was impossible to speak directly with Brianna as it would offend her. As for Vely, Jia Meiya also did not speak to him, as it was the same as saying that Old Vely, considering that the two of them were almost at the same age.
Nathan looked at his wives, though they had not yet held an official ceremony, but he had already declared that they were his wives. "The three of you are pregnant, don't act rashly and don't move too much."
The three pouted and looked displeased, as they were about to protest, Natan waved her hand, making it clear that she did not want any rejection.
After which, Natan turned around, stepping up the stone stairs with his teammates. He stood in front of the entrance, and suddenly a screen interface appeared before his eyes.
[Dungeon Tower Armonia Guild]
[Select Floor: ..]
Natan saw team members: Tanaka Ayumi Level 596, Erina Adriani Level 596, Vely Anindya Level 595, Izora Calista Level 595, Olivia Edrea Level 595.
Natan chose the 24th Floor where the monsters there were only Level 575. But even so, not many could enter it. Only his group had already entered the peak, but since now his wives were pregnant, he did not want to take any risks by entering the 25th Floor.
Their bodies were enveloped by the blue light, then broke into flakes of light that disappeared.
Brianna who saw Natan disappear, sighed, then looked at Ainsley. "Do you really want to marry my son?"
Ainsley looked over with her eyes wide open. "Why all of a sudden?" He never expected Brianna to ask this question.
Brianna was silent for a while as she frowned, as if she was fighting with her own thoughts. He sighed, then replied, "You know, right, I never trusted the Guardians. I can bless you with Natan, but I hope you can keep her from the Guardians. I don't want my son taken advantage of."
Ainsley was still shocked, which was why he did not answer her directly. "Even if I want to marry her, are you okay? Throw away the Guard, do you really want Natan to marry me?"
Brianna lowered her head, clenching her hands full of emotion. "No ..."
Ainsley sighed, she already knew the answer, only that she felt strange because of the sudden Brianna. "There's no need then, even without having to make such a relationship, I'm still protecting her. Even if our relationship can't get there, it doesn't matter, I'll take it as my sister."
Brianna didn't look happy, even staring at Ainsley's cynics. "You said that, but the truth is you locked on to Nathan's movements and kissed his lips. Do you think I don't know?"
Ainsley was stunned with shock on her face, then she smiled and laughed awkwardly.

—Floor 24, Dungeon Tower—
The expanse of grass was wide, the breeze was hitting the reeds, the dandelion being hit by the wind, flying into the sky following the direction the wind was blowing. The sunlight descending from the sky shone on the expanse of grass, carrying a warm feeling that wrapped around the body, the scent of fresh grass brought different comfort.
Natan breathed in the fresh air around, then exhaled it slowly. "The air here is fresher than the outside."
Yep! The Dungeon Tower in the Armonia Guild was used as a place to search for food sources, and everything here could be consumed. The beef on the 24th Floor was the best, beating the Wagyu A5.
"Yes." Yeah." Natan agreed to it, he also wanted to catch the beef. Floor 1 — 25 is an edible monster, and he has no idea what monsters are on Floor 26 — 50.
He took out Sako TRG Mana, now he no longer felt weak or embarrassed when using this weapon. Now, he only had one goal, killing monsters and enemies in the fastest way, there was no need to use conventional means that put lives at risk.
Erina tilted her head when she saw Sako TRG Mana. "Sister doesn't wear a sword? Usually Brother uses a sword, fighting at close range, as if he was making women amazed."
Natan fell silent and felt a twitch in his eyes. Especially when he heard the little laughter of his wives, he grew annoyed and did not know what to say.
He took a deep breath, then he said, "I was embarrassed to be at the back before, so I prefer to use a sword. But after training with Mom, I felt no need to be ashamed of the power I had."
"really?" Erina was still unsure of Natan's answer. "Not to attract attention?"
Natan patted her face. He sighed, looking down to the side looking at Erina on his left. "If I say no, does Erina believe me?"
"No." Erina shook her head with an innocent look as she looked at Natan.
Natan bowed as she stretched out her hands, then pinched Erina's soft cheeks. "How can you not trust your own brother."
Erina did not feel any pain, even chuckling as she was pinched on her cheek by Natan.
Suddenly, Natan stopped pinching Erina's cheek and looked back as she felt a movement coming towards her. He stood up straight, turning around while lifting the scope to look at the Red Leather Cow.
On the 24th Floor there were 500 Red Leather Cows. Like cows in general, only the skin is red and able to reflect sunlight.
"What's cooking tonight? I want kebab." Ayumi salivated when she saw the Red Skin Cow. He looked at Erina, and asked, "What do you want for food?"
"Meat ball!"
"Bakso?" Ayumi tilted her head.
"Bakso there is a flour mixture. I want a meat ball! Real minced meat!" Erina snorted coldly.
Natan was getting used to Ayumi and Erina who were always arguing about the dishes to be eaten. Now, he was no longer the same as he had always calmed them down, now he just let it go.
Natan took a deep breath, then he pulled the trigger, firing a shot.
The blue Mana bullets shot across the wind, and as it was exposed to the sunlight, the bullets were disguised in color.
The bullet hit the front right leg of the Red Leather Cow, making the cow fall and swipe the ground. He let out a long sigh that sounded painful and sad.
Natan did not care, and pulled back the trigger to shoot the Red Leather Cow.
The shot hit the head and killed him. The cow was glowing with a blue color and a hint of redness. When the light disappeared, it was seen that the Red Skin Cow was still on the surface of the grass, without skin, her stomach split and her entrails disappeared.
Nathan was stunned when he saw her. Before the Dungeon Tower was upgraded, the Red Leather Cow would only drop meat, and that was between the ribs or thighs. But now, arguably intact except for the skin and stomach contents.
Ayumi and Erina shouted expressing her excitement, then both of them ran towards the flesh lying on the grass.
Natan lowered her head, pondering, thinking about whether all the drops from the monsters killed in the Dungeon Tower would be like this. "It's a good thing, we're starved of food because of the dark sky disaster. But, the skin was also valuable, it could be used to make protectors and sold."
He was confused, before and after being upgraded both had their own advantages. Before, he could get a skin even though his flesh was a little. Now, the meat is a lot, but there is no skin to make the fixtures.
"After getting out of here, I'll ask Ainsley."
