Chapter 309: A Fealty Contract…?
Hearing all this, Ethan couldn’t help but recall the Dungeon levels from the games he used to play back in his original world.
A flicker of nostalgia passed through his eyes.
After a moment, he let out a quiet sigh.
"Yeah... the paths in this Dungeon are way tougher than anything on the surface world."
But before he could finish the thought, his gaze drifted to the resource nodes they’d passed along the way—those tied to the six core resources. His eyes lit up.
"But damn, the resources down here? They’re insane."
"Right?"
Auremax nodded, clearly just as impressed.
"Even though most people agree that the Undead Necropolis is the strongest of the three Dark Alliance factions... there’s another theory."
He paused, then continued, voice low but serious.
"They say that if the Dungeon faction ever had a true Overlord—someone powerful enough to unite the entire Dungeon—then its overall strength would surpass even the Necropolis. Maybe even rival the legendary Draconic Empire from back in the day."
