about your last proposition, that's the funny part cuz aint no one was strong enough to do so before mc and crew came, i won't rule out the fact that he didn't want to clear it in the first place but it's mostly cuz no one was also strong to complete de dungeon
Not quite, the guy with the lance weapon that followed them was stated to be the best chance and was apparently really good at the job.

The manga specifically mentioned they actively sabotaged him by preventing everyone from selling him gear and potions, and kept screwing with him even after that to stop him getting further. Refer to chapter 9.

So yea they did not want to clear it.

Well, just tell him, if he’s being antagonistic, the party will close any other dungeon that his guild has stakes in while declaring that it’s because the merchants’ challenge.

I can't entirely blame some of the citizens for being upset, this could easily turn into a Detroit situation. Living in Detroit is a fate worse than death. When you have a city who's entire economy is based one thing and that thing dries up, it can be disastrous. The brain drain and capital flight is what really kills it. merchants see that there's better money to be made elsewhere and leave taking their money and infrastructure with them, the craftsmen no longer has access to the materials needed to make money, so he leaves. The cost of living for the rest of the citizenry increases as food/materials/maintenance costs rise and anyone with the means to leave does so before they run out of the funds needed to leave. Eventually you get to the point where it becomes nearly impossible to keep people safe as they don't have the money to pay the police, doctors etc. After all of that you're left with the people that hoped they could stop the decline but couldn't, the ones that didn't see the writing on the wall in time and the extremely poor. Detroit is the way it is because of decade after decade of corrupt and incompetent leadership as well as the loss of industry, this cities leadership just seems corrupt, so hopefully it won't completely shit it self like Detroit. I've been to modern Detroit and I've done volunteer work in disaster zones, I can genuinely say I would prefer to live in a disaster zone or a city with occasional monster attacks.

Exactly, this is due to the old man's forcing the end of sparkling potions.

Even WITH sparkling potions, it would have taken the adventurers of the city years, if not DECADES, to make it thru the mutant keuros and the dungeon boss

If you're doing stuff with the potential to end civilization, you could just not do that (make it illegal) or hold off until the potential negative consequences can be contained.
Here is a Big Red Button.
There is a random selection of Normal People.

Now.... Bets on how long it takes for anyone to push the Big Red Button, just to see what happens.....

And honestly... Advocating "legislature" to stop the ways of Mad Science... I've got a Tide waiting for your Legions... :p

You can entirely blame the people.

The whole dungeon problem is the longer you keep it around the stronger monsters become and eventually reach a point where they will start spilling out of the dungeon, which will not only ruin the city but also slaughter everyone there. The whole reason it was kept around is because it also brought lucrative business through potions, gears for adventurers and so on.

The only people who complain are merchants that will have to return to free market instead of living inside the adventurer shop bubble. Heck, I would argue they even sold shoddy gear in order to make quick buck because who cares if your customer dies when the dungeon is still there and therefore more adventurers will come.

I wonder if unsealing a dungeon will trigger penalty: Final Boss Summon (Stronger than anything before that dungeon sealed) + Dungeon Outbreak.

Sounds like they're going to push for limiting the hunting of monsters that are left in the dungeon to a sustainable level.
Then the adventurer who made living or associated with the merchant guild may take the huge blow. That dungeon is basically their cash cow.

Should have told them if the bastard that caused this whole mess wants to talk he should bring his ass down to them.

Like most cycles of life, things will reach a lower level before it eventually stops. That sustainable level ruined so many business models (aka people's economic livelihood)

this all seems.... incredibly short-sighted... by everyone involved.

How does NO ONE have a plan for what to do after a dungeon seal? What the hell was motivating them forwards otherwise? :wtf:

As the monsters dwindle in number and the dungeon boss is dead, it will slowly get easier and easier to get all the way to the core compared to the clear run.

Merchants and so didn't mind that adventurers keep dying in the dungeon while they go on selling them potions and stuff.

You know if we're them I let one boss monster rampage a day in the city. Lead it from the bottom floor to the entrance as an example or what the cool gamers said when they see a soon to be flop AAA 60 dollar "trying before buying"

i don't think it's possible to restore a dungeon once it's been cleared so let us see how it goes
