Chapter 251: Skittering problems

Dave's group entered the Chaos dungeon. The dim interior of the cave was so sweltering hot it was difficult even to breathe. Heat radiated off the stone walls of the tunnel and scorching dry air blew up from the depths and into their faces.

Dave checked through his character sheet; he was steadily approaching an [Overheated] state.

'Man, this dive is gonna suck.'

It was 42 degree celsius. He kept an eye on his game time, heat rose by one degree celsius every minute. At that rate, it would take less than an hour to reach 100 celsius, the threshold of the [Overheat] abnormal status effect. .

"Commander, the heat is overwhelming. I can cast [Northern Wind] on us to reduce the effects," the priestess asked.

"Elemental magic?" He found it strange that she could cast elemental spells, which was the province of magic users not priests and clerics.

"Yes," replied the priestess.

Dave thought for a moment. "Wait until we can't take the heat. Otherwise, it's just a waste of mana."
