Nice, they increased a tiny bit, but that's more than enough for now!

FLUOOOSH!

The gates opened as a wave of Miasma greeted us. The magicians that unsealed the dungeon were protected by barriers made of magic artifacts they brought, which were also golems of their own in the shape of small towers imbued with hundreds of magic crystals.

They were in charge of shaping and creating a powerful barrier made of light capable of protecting their surroundings and also fend off the deadly Miasma. However, their power was limited to this area and they wouldn't be able to deal with a full-scale attack from Miasmic Monsters if they were to ever free themselves from the Dungeon.

Therefore, the Dungeon was kept Sealed through powerful magic and the usage of many Artifacts, which the Dwarves used to create what was called a "Dungeon Sealing Formation" using the many Artifacts/Golems as nodes to fuel the power of this formation which also worked as a reinforcement of the holy light barrier.

Maintaining this entire thing costed the government a lot of money though, so they were often tight in funds even when they had been thriving. It didn't helped that the merchants at Goldsand took advantage of this and used their desperation to increase their prices, they were not exactly as bastardly as the guys from the Kingdoms at the center of the Continent, but they were certainly shitty.

As everything had to be deactivated to allow us to enter, once we got inside, the gates would quickly close as to protect the city. Once we completed the dungeon, they would once more open them. In the worst-case scenario where we had to run away, they would also open them once we knocked the doors from inside, although it would be quite gruesome to think about. I am quite confident we can make it, as long as we use all the cards we have.

I've also gotten a lot of materials in my last Dungeon Dive yesterday, those ones from the Random Item Boxes were all not without a purpose. I don't know why, but the Dungeon Core of the Swamp Dungeon seems to have prepared a set of special materials that could help me in such an ordeal. As my Alchemy Skill rose in level, more and more inspirations on how to properly use materials reached my mind.

Now, let's begin this!

Anyways, I knew how to use these materials… all of these items could come in handy in this dangerous dungeon, so I'll make sure to use them properly, once the necessity arrives, of course. I can't go around wasting precious materials on threats that might not be as dangerous. We'll handle things as we can. Good thing I am quite the amazing analytical person!

…Or am I?
