Rebirth of the Strongest Dungeon Master-Chapter 97 Homunculus

Adelia just smiled sweetly when she saw her master lost in thought. After she explained in detail about the rumors of the homunculus in the dungeon located in Tianjin, Isaac was silent for a long time.

Based on the rumors she heard from among the hunters, they were often attacked by humans who had the same characteristics; white hair, pale skin, and blood-red eyes. They had above average skills and had great strength too. At least one of them could fight three C rank hunters alone.

Since those humans lived in the dungeon and attacked the hunters, they weren't humans. They were monsters.

The hunters called them the Homunculus.

Homunculus was an artificial monster created from human flesh and blood. They had an appearance not much different from humans in general. The only fundamental difference was that they were obedient like dogs. Any orders given would be carried out by them, even if they were ordered to jump into the ravine.

They had the physical strength of an orc, and the mana capacity of an elf. It could be said they were above average compared to dungeon monsters in general. They were ideal troops for Dungeon Masters.

Unfortunately, there were some significant weaknesses that made them less valuable; they were very short-lived.

Homunculus usually took on the figure of an adult, male or female, with a physical appearance of 20 to 30 years old. They were only able to survive for three months after being released to the world.

This human-shaped monster was never sold at the auction or shop. Their existence was like caecilians worm, and they could be obtained by certain methods.

During the game, there was only one Dungeon Master who possessed it—that was Earl Xenovia.

The information Isaac knew about the female demon was minimal. According to the rumors circulating, Earl Xenovia was an eccentric woman. She was antisocial; she didn't want to communicate with demons, except when it came to her interests. She was known to be very fond of experimenting with humans. Because of her passion, the other demons thought she was crazy.

Homunculus was just one of her masterpieces.

As Isaac recalled, she had many other monsters from experimental creations. Most of them had irregular shapes and strange abilities. Thanks to that, it was quite difficult for other demons to penetrate her dungeon.

In a way, Earl Xenovia was the only Dungeon Master that used off meta troops.

'She has the troops of troublesome monsters. In the next few years, she would become a joker for Duke Barbatos. Should I get rid of her now?'

Isaac finally took a deep breath. Adelia immediately widened her smile. The master finally snapped from his reverie.

"So, that's all you heard? There's nothing else about the dungeon in Tianjin?"

Adeline shook her head. "Yes, that's all, my lord. Currently only homunculus is a hot topic among hunters. The news about the homunculus grew rapidly and became an exaggerated story; conspiracy theories began to emerge. They were worried that a homunculus would disguise themselves in their lives and overthrow the humans from within."

Isaac was silent, because what the hunters thought was true.

Earl Xenovia would use the homunculus to infiltrate the humans. She wanted to impregnate ordinary humans with homunculus. With the hope that the resulting offspring will produce superior quality; have great strength and a long life. Luckily, the plan failed miserably. The babies born from humans and homunculus had a disgusting shape, not even said to be in shape.

However, she succeeded in carrying out Duke Barbatos' plan. These Homunculus were sent to the dungeons on the Asia Continent to finish off the hunters; stealing zenny from the Dungeon Masters. It was just that this tactic only lasted for two months, because the homunculus was detected in the system as a monster. Of course, it was quite easy for the Dungeon Master to finish off the strange monsters that had infiltrated his home.

Even so, at least Earl Xenovia earned millions of zenny from that imperfect plan.

"In that case, alright. You have done well, Adelia. I didn't make the wrong choice."

The High Elf smiled happily. "Thank you, my lord. It's an honor to have your compliments."

The performance check on the 4th Floor was completed, all went according to plan. Even beyond expectations.

Now it was time for Isaac to get into the real business.

"Then, I need your fifty men to be sent to the 1st Floor. Make sure the elf you send is very good at making 'runes'." 𝑓𝐫𝑒e𝒘𝚎𝘣𝚗𝘰𝘷𝐞𝑙.co𝑚

One of Adelia's eyebrows rose. She was curious, but she didn't ask because it seemed rude. So she just replied, "Yes, my lord"

Isaac then got up from his seat. His business with Adelia was done. He quickly left the room. The High Elf lowered her head as she watched her master leave.

After a long time not setting foot on the 1st Floor, the environmental conditions were still the same as the last time Isaac came; The pine trees lined up towering the palace, and there were many hunters hunting the monsters.

A normal condition for the tutorial floor of the hunters.

Pippi and three bears with deer horns oversaw the construction of a monument. The monument was made of giant black oval stone carved by the dwarves. Not only were the dwarves working, the elves were also visible from the construction site. They seemed to gather in one place, chanting spells in turn.

In the midst of their busy life, they suddenly stopped working. Their attention was distracted by Isaac's presence.

"Lord!"

Of course, among those who were aware of Isaac's presence was Pippi. The little girl jumped off the bear's back and ran to her master excitedly. Right in front of Isaac, she stopped quickly, then put on a salute position.

Ever since Isaac got a new dungeon, Pippi tried to change her attitude. Kirnish's existence threatened her position as Isaac's right-hand man. She didn't want her master to turn away from her. Thus, she tried to show that she was the best assistant.

Pippi would prove it on this project. A project that would have Isaac flooded with zenny in the near future.
