Chapter 8-16
Most dungeon Quests have at best an irritatingly vague sense of urgency to them. The good news is that unless the System tells you there’s a time limit, there isn’t. Except for the little detail where many dungeons become more hostile over time, but that’s not technically part of the Quest. And if you’re strong enough to ignore that, or in a dungeon without this lovely ‘feature’, you can spend as long as you want there.
The record, in case you’re curious, is 42 days, 18 hours, and 37 minutes. Since you’re probably even more curious now, the record-holders were a pair of criminals on the run who thought they could pop into a dungeon and not come out until the heat had died down. Dumbasses spent practically the entire time fucking, if you can believe it.
Also, their ‘genius’ plan failed. Gotta admire the stamina involved though.
