This hole had been hidden by a layer of dirt above it, but the weight of the King Slime had caused that layer of dirt to collapse and reveal the hole.The King Slime wasn't able to do a single thing as it fell down into the hole. Even though it trembled as if it was trying to stop itself, it just couldn't do anything since it didn't have any limbs to grab the sides of the hole to stop itself. As for where this hole came from. At the bottom of this hole were quite a few smaller holes that seemed to be leading out. These were holes that had been dug out by the slimes that I had sent down into the ground. They had been digging this hole with their acid the entire time I had been leading the King Slime around. The reason for this hole was… The King Slime continued to fall, but it also seemed to compact itself as if it was bracing for the impact. It was almost as if it wasn't worried even though it was falling right into the hole. After all, the King Slime had a soft body that should have been able to impact the fall. If it wasn't for the fact that there was something at the bottom of the hole. This was a very sharp spike that was sticking out from the center of the hole. This was clearly not a natural spike, but something that had been created. S~eaʀᴄh the NovelFire.net* website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. It was made from the acid of the slimes that had melted the rock around the spike until it formed this sharp spike. This spike was positioned right under the King Slime, right under the core of the King Slime. So if the King Slime fell on it, it would stab right into the core of the King Slime. There was a moment where the King Slime seemed to slow down when it hit the spike, but it wasn't enough to save the King Slime. The spike was sharp and it fell fast enough that the spike pierced through its skin. That spike pierced right through to the core of the King Slime and shattered it. Once the core of the King Slime was shattered, it popped like a balloon and filled the hole with acid. Just like that, the King Slime was killed. I looked down into the hole that was filled with acid and there was a bitter smile that appeared on my face. "How am I supposed to get the loot like this?" That was the only thought that passed through my mind as I looked down into the hole. But it turned out that it didn't matter. The dungeon actually took care of the acid that was at the bottom of the hole and made it disappear. Once that pool of acid disappeared, there were a few items that appeared in its place. The hole was quite deep, so I wasn't able to clearly see what these items were. It didn't take long for the slimes to go down into the hole and bring these items out. It was another core and another bottle of acid, but these seemed different compared to the ones that came from the normal slimes. The core was much bigger than the ones that the normal slimes dropped. The bottle of acid was also a different colour, which probably meant that the contents were different. If I had to guess, I would assume that this meant that the acid was stronger than the one that the normal slimes dropped. These two items weren't that interesting to me since they were just normal loot. What caught my attention was the other two items that had been dropped. One of them was a dagger that I had to pick up carefully since I could tell that there was a strange colour to the blade of the dagger. It was as if there was something that was coating this blade, which meant that I shouldn't touch it directly. The other thing was what seemed to be a scroll. I didn't know what this scroll was, but anything that dropped as a scroll in a dungeon was certainly some kind of magic item. A magic item was completely different from the normal items that dropped. Magic items were special items that had very special effects. Just finding a single one would be more than enough for a person to earn enough to not do anything else their entire life…Well that was as long as the magic item had an effect that was special enough to warrant that much money. But I didn't know what this scroll was capable of since it hadn't been appraised yet. Any item that came from the dungeon had to be appraised before it could be used since there was no telling what kind of effect it would have. So before appraising it, I didn't dare try using this scroll. Or that would have been the case if it wasn't for the fact that there was a popup that appeared when I held this scroll in my hand. As I looked at it, there was this window that contained information on the scroll that appeared in front of my face. Summoning Scroll Allows the user to summon a familiar once. It was a very simple description of what the item was, but this description was more than enough to shock me. After all, this was a very special item if the window was correct. Technically, people could summon as many familiars as they wanted, but the method that was commonly used required one to use mana to summon familiars. If someone tried summoning more than one familiar with this method, then they would be drained of their mana and die. That was why there was only one summoning chance given to each person when they graduated. But this Summoning Scroll was different. This Summoning Scroll was a magic item that allowed one to summon a familiar without using one's mana. Which meant that it was a chance to freely summon another familiar without any risks. This was a power that people would kill for.
