Chapter 171 – Eliminate Exhaustion

This displays the dungeon status of the Kusuzawa South Dungeon.

After the Voice of Heaven, a window appears in my field of view.

Dungeon────────────────

Kusuzawa South Dungeon Rank C (Depletion in Progress)

Administrator: Kurashiki Yuto

Current DP -201742

Average natural production DP (days) over the past 14 days: 1116.75

Estimated time left until depletion is resolved: 197 Days, 6 Hours, 54 Minutes, 44 Seconds

Dungeon management function: Stopped

Resource conversion to DP: Possible

────────────────────

Because you are low on DP, you cannot use the dungeon management function.

“Hmm…”

There’s less information than I thought.

“Could it be because it is running low?”

Maybe there’s less information because the dungeon management function is down due to low resources.

“DP… well, it’s dungeon points, I think.”

I stared at the DP item, muttering to myself,

Dungeon────────────────

DP: Dungeon Point

Points are needed to manage dungeons.

DP is naturally generated by dungeon activity from currently existing dungeons.

DP can also be earned by converting effective resources such as MP, mana coins, SP, items, monsters, etc.

────────────────────

“…So that’s how it works.”

MP, Mana Coins, and SP.

In short, it means you can convert your resources into DP, right?

As I was organizing the information,

‘Confirmed that the conditions for releasing confidential information have been met.’

Secret──────────────────

Conditions for releasing “DP” classified information: “Come into contact with something that exists/doesn’t exist in the world.”

Reward: Release of additional detailed information about “DP.”

────────────────────

Info──────────────────

DP can also be obtained by converting the void.

────────────────────

“Oh, that’s right.”

When you create a dungeon, you have to convert resources into DP, right?

It’s only natural that you can convert resources into DP.

“Can you convert resources to DP?”

‘Do you want to convert your resources to DP?’

“Yes.”

‘Please specify the resources you want to convert.’

“Resources… SP, mana coins, MP, or items, right?”

Monsters were also listed, but I have no intention of converting my precious secret monsters into DP.

The only four items I can recover from consumption are the remaining four items.

So which of those four do I have the most of?

Needless to say,

“SP.”

The conversion rate of SP to DP is currently 1:1. How many SP points would you like to convert into DP?

“One to one?”

That’s easy to understand.

“The current negative DP amount for this dungeon is exactly 201742.”

200,000 SP is an absurd amount in the real world, but it’s not that painful for me right now.

Understanding the Dungeon Management specs is probably a higher priority.

‘Converting 201742 SP owned by Kurashiki Yuto to 201742 DP. Is that okay?’

“Yes, go ahead.”

‘The current DP of ‘Kusuzawa South Dungeon’ has become 0.’

‘The depletion status of Kusuzawa South Dungeon has been resolved.’

‘The management functions of the Kusuzawa South Dungeon are now available.’

────────────────────

“Wow, it can do so many things!”

For now, I’ll try selecting “Status of Existing Floor.”

A holographic, translucent 3D image appears.

It’s the same thing you see with the unique bonus of the Dungeon Master job.

Next, I click on “Status of Placed Monsters.”

…There’s no change.

“Oh, that’s right. There are no monsters right now.”

The menu also says, “Status of Placed Monsters (0).”

There is no way to show something that does not exist.

“Well… it seems like it would be better to turn off natural monster generation.”

If monsters were to naturally spawn in the dungeon I managed, and then explorers who entered the dungeon died, I would probably be held responsible for their deaths.

If a flood happened by chance, it would be a disaster.

…Well, I don’t think there’s any way for them to know that this dungeon is under my management.

“Still, I’m curious about the relationship between monsters and dungeons.”

In other dungeons without managers, I assume the monsters are replenished automatically by this “Monsters Spawning Naturally” thing.

It seems that replenishment costs DP and that DP is produced naturally.

Presumably, when explorers kill monsters, they take DP in the form of experience points, SP, mana coins, etc.?

In fact, that is how this dungeon was depleted.

On the other hand, when explorers die in the dungeon, DP is recovered as a resource in some way.

I accidentally ran out of this dungeon before, but in the future, when I want to conquer an A-rank dungeon, I want to be able to predict how far I can go before it runs out.

In this case,

“――Let’s try to make some monsters.”
