This wasn't just the skills he had learned from Gil while learning archery or his all around appraisal. It was the mana he could feel.
The mana flowing around him was dense and clear. He could feel the flow of it everywhere moving to ensure that this unique environment remained.
But that was not all, besides the elemental manas, there were the other manas.
Life mana wa surprisingly dense here.
Walker could feel it deep in the ground beneath. This was why the poison jungle was able to have such lush greenery.
The massive trees would require at least fifteen of him to circle around while holding hands.
While he already had some knowledge that the dungeons were alive, this made it very clear that this was the case.
Not necessarily in the same way that an elemental spirit was alive, this entire place had dense manas which focused themselves on keeping it functional.
The dungeon could return to the way it was when it had full levels of mana.Therefore, it could be able to bounce back when it came to losing parts of itself. It was like a turtle that could not have its shell broken.
But its shell in this case was the space mana that Walker could also sense.
He was feeling that the air even had a layer of space mana.
He could not use space mana at all within the dungeon because he would interfere with it. Therefore, this place became much more dangerous.
The space mana that Walker had understood was valuable to him. It allowed him the ability to understand his positioning wherever he was.
Allowing for his mana sense to grow exponentially while he understood space mana. Because even other manas took up some space when condensed.
They all worked in turn with space mana, even at unseen levels Walker had yet to even scratch.
Even more, space mana had become a trump card for Walker.
If he faced a danger that he was uncertain of, he could use his control of space mana to teleport. At the very least, he could use space mana with wind mana and move at incredible speeds to escape.
Within a dungeon, he could not.
While it might not be every single dungeon, this one he was unable to use space mana at all because if he did, the dungeon would be harmed in some way, shape, or form.
Just trying to get a sense of it, Walker could feel that there was a force stopping him. Warning him that there would be repercussions of him so much as began to take ahold of some space mana.
Besides this, he could follow the flow of life mana. He could sense that it was moving in tandem with everything.
The herbs he spotted were all higher quality than some of their counterparts that Genesis was growing. Further proving that a dungeon was an extremely valuable place.
It had the ability to nurture herbs, not only at a better level, but at an ideal level compared to outside of the dungeon. This was most likely because of the ways that it drew in mana, condensed it, and then distributed it.
All of this was assuming the dungeons that they encountered were like this one. One that remained the same everywhere that they went within it.
"We have an urgent report from the vampire scouting group." One of the goblins who had come with Walker had a written report already.
They had written word for word what the vampires had said.
"Upon scouting ahead with familiar bats, we have learned there is a defined area we are deterred from.
A mist gathers in that area. If we approach, we are turned around and return to where we started.
We believe that the area can not expand too much further after this. It is unknown.
"
"We have found a nest of purple web spiders. They are extremely venomous.
Their webs are poisonous. We will record more information about them before we retreat with several eggs to be examined by the tamer's guild.
The appraisals on the eggs state that they are not bound by the laws of existence within the dungeon until their life is sparked by the world. We wish to hear from the hero Walker about this.
"
"Thank you. That will be all for now.
I also have a few things for you to record while you are here." Walker pointed upwards, above them were several pairs of small yellow eyes watching them.
"Poison gaze creature. They are fakes to say the least.
Monsters that fake the look of eyes and follow movement with them. They actually follow your mana if you release it.
If they have a chance, they will rain an acidic poison on to you before dropping those yellow eyeball looking seeds from their vines. Those are actually like little eggs.
"
"They can not be brought from the dungeon since they are always birthed here. It does say that they are a monster lost to time, meaning potentially ancient.
They have absolutely no usage in crafting or alchemy. But, they are considered ideal guards for vaults because they will always attack unless they are trained while they grow in a specific way.
Tamers may be able to use them if we discover them elsewhere."
Walker raised a hand and a wall of earth covered them as a yellow acidic poison dripped down on them.
The monster had reacted to their mana when Walker had stopped hiding everyone from it. But no one was focused on the fact that Walker defended them.
They were terrified by the appearance of the poison gazed creature. A monster they would surely never wish to see again.
"Besides it, on that tree, is a venom feather sparrow. It can shoot its feathers with a flap of its wings similar to a porcupine monster.
The feathers are filled with a chick venom which will cause your bones to become brittle. It is ideal to use the venom in the feathers to create a bone based fertilizer for plants found within the undead ruins or the ruins of the immortal race cities."
Walker had read the appraisal of this monster.
He realized that this place might have been connected when the immortal chasing race was around. Not that they would have used it, but maybe because this monster itself had been around.
That made more sense. Especially since the appraisal mentioned the undead related plants cultivated by the immortal chasing race.
That aside, Walker did not want to linger on the immortal chasing race and how old they really had been. Instead, he was focusing on the evidence of a larger monster.
He had received a warning that large monsters might be on the ground to hunt. More so, they would be in the treetops remaining hidden.
That every elf did not wish to travel in to the treetops. Even Gil had felt some apprehension to head in to the trees and chose not to.
Walker, on the other hand, was not so afraid. He actually felt more curiosity now than before.
Simply put, he could sense the manas of many moving things in the tree canopies. They were all monsters.
He knew very well that they were more than the one he had just described and would write a better appraisal for later.
The monsters that he could sense were not still because they were hiding from anything.
They were still because they were ambush hunters. Every single monster that was not large was an ambush hunter here.
Or, it hid because there was one of those larger monsters here waiting for them to mess up. So it could eat them.
"That is something we have seen before. Well, not that you would recognize it.
I mean my party saw one. But this one is much larger and the all around appraisal is different.
I would assume because it might have the best diet and best possible mana flow because of the poison jungle dungeon. It also has the ability to make venom and poisons in its body.
"
The way that Walker was just talking while looking off in to the dense green ahead of them put all of the soldiers with him on edge. They did not know what he was seeing until another used an appraisal scroll and froze in place.
"It's fine, this one we can't run away from. We have to fight it.
Well, I will fight it. It's about to strike anyways.
"
The calmness in Walker's voice made them feel even more stressed out.
