The Dungeon Conquerors: Journey to the Peak

Ben was overjoyed. With his knowledge about ore and gems, he was immediately able to judge that the large stone behind Rein was exactly the Huguocite mountain that he had asked them to retrieve. This young man did not just bring a piece of the mountain which was the best that Ben was expecting. But this team actually managed to retrieve the whole mountain.

As he was extremely knowledgeable about ores, he was also able to understand how this Huguocite mountain had become this small. But it was impossible for just three people to absorb this much energy from the mineral. So he was extremely surprised about how Rein and his team managed to accomplish this.

The dumbfounded Ben came back to his senses when Prucia pulled at his hands. After that he immediately invited Rein, Sophia and Ruby inside his house and started asking them many questions like an excited child. Rein did not tell him about everything in detail as Rein had no intention to reveal the details of everyone's abilities to him. But still, he did tell Ben a few things about how Rein managed to complete this mission.

After that Ben had no more doubts about Rein, Sophia and Ruby's powers and he started to tell them about his past and how he came to meet with Prucia and took her in. Rein was sure that knowing this story would be extremely valuable for him to find out more information about the Desolate Plains of Gahana.

...

At first when Ben came here to this godforsaken place, he was only a weak blessed who was even abandoned by his family. Blessed people had extremely important privileges but that was only the case for the regular society. But for large families with many blesseds, the quality of it was also important.

Ben did not have the weakest ability of this family but unfortunately his own elder brothers had abilities which were far superior to his own. That was the reason why he was compared with them all the time and people find his ability to be more terrible than it actually was.

Then because of a girl, he came to offend a powerful family of his city. He was still willing to accept that but then he found out that the girl for whom he was putting himself in so much danger was actually just using him and was in love with one of his older brothers.

This truth broke Ben and the influential family that he had offended was also coming at him. So to protect himself, Ben ran away to this extremely dangerous place. But there was obviously a reason why he chose this area and anything else. And that reason was his ability. The ability that he had was useless in battle but it allowed him to sense the presence of various inorganic materials.

So Ben was able to sense if an area had the ores even without digging it at all. So when everyone else was digging all over the place to find a single ore, he was able to identify all the areas with minerals so his efficiency was off the chart. But this ability was not useful as it sounded because as soon as Ben used this ability, his brain would overload with a huge amount of information.

For this reason, Ben was not able to use this ability of his for a long time. But still even with this limited use, he still managed to find a lot of success here. One day when he was once again walking in the outskirts of the Desolate Plains, he suddenly saw a comet falling from the sky which landed very close to the area where he was at that time.

Comets most of the time were made from very common minerals but there was also a chance for a comet to have extremely rare minerals that might even not be present in this world. So Ben immediately went to track down that falling comet with the intention of getting lucky.

When he reached the landing site of the comet, Ben found a small red gem lying there. He was curious as he had no idea what kind of gem it actually was. Even with his extensive knowledge on this topic, Ben had never come across a gem like this. He was also a bit scared of this gem having some kind of harmful effect so he used a glove to pick it up. Then he started to check it out from various angles.

This gem was very weird and unlike anything that Ben had seen before. Most of the gems reflected light very well and looked beautiful because of that reason. But this gem did not reflect any light and did not shine at all. Not only that but this gem was extremely cold and this cold was piercing. So even with gloves on, Ben was able to feel the cold sipping through his body.

Probably because of that reason, Ben's hands went numb while he was holding this gem and it fell. Ben tried to catch it mid air but he failed. But unexpectedly after hitting the ground, unlike anything Ben had seen before, this gem bounced up and hit him on his bare face.

As soon as this gem came in contact with his bare face, it was absorbed inside his body. Immediately after that Ben felt a new ability awakening inside him. This ability was not a symbol which was the system of this world and instead the information about this appeared in his mind.

Unfortunately for Ben, this ability of his was also not a fighting one and instead made him able to hide his presence extremely well. He had no idea what grade this ability had, but there were very few times, when anyone had managed to see through it.

This was a huge stroke of luck for Ben as with this ability, he had managed to go deeper into the desolate plains to search for more ores. The ability allowed him to earn a lot of money in a short period of time. But while living a good life, Ben suddenly had a thought. So far, no one had managed to see through his hiding ability so it gave Ben a lot of confidence. For that reason Ben suddenly wanted to know, what was at the deepest depths of the Desolate Plains.

There was no reason behind this thought of his but as soon as this thought appeared in his mind, he was unable to get rid of this. After a few days, Ben left the city while carrying a huge amount of supplies with the intention of going as deep as possible in the Desolate Plains of Gahana. He had his beloved Danger Rover with him and when his Danger Rover would not be able to go forward anymore, he would continue this journey on foot.

Ben had never done anything this dangerous in his whole life so he was extremely nervous. But at the same time, he was also feeling a lot of excitement.

With these emotions feeling his heart, Ben finally started his expedition.
