The third floor "Pilgrim’s Path" closes after the 15th day.[1]
REGIONS[]
Orc Colony[]
Of the regions on the third floor, the Orc Colony has the highest number of monsters. Only monsters of grade 8 or higher appear. The Difficulty is the Second Highest among the third floor areas.
Rank 5 Monsters Orc Heroes: Denish /Belta /Tarugas
A type of hidden boss summoned after sacrificing 777 Mighty Orc Warriors mana stones at the altar in the center of the colony.
An Orc Hero can appear with very little chance. There are three Orc Heroes summoned with mana stones. Each one has a unique name. In other words, they are high-ranking mutants with quite troublesome sets of abilities. Therefore, even if they are rank 5 monsters, attacking in raid units is essential. There is also a small chance the Rank 2 Monster "Orc Lord" spawns instead.
Each of them drops an essence of a certain color.

1. Denish has the red essence that contains "Cry of Frenzy".
2. Belta has the blue essence that contains "The Fighting Flag".
3. Tarugas has the green essence that contains "Giantization".[2]
Witch's Forest[]
The Witch´s Forest has an effect no other region of the labyrinth has. A mist that confuses the senses, making everything appear as if in a haze. When inside the mist, sounds and images are distorted, distances are made confusing, all the senses are disturbed. Without a sensory essence, finding one´s way in the Witch´s Forest is close to impossible.
Inside the Witch´s Forest, a magical hut can be found. This hut is free from the confusing effects of the mist. The hut will appear in random locations, and will maintain the same layout and contents every time. The hut will remain in place for eight hours, after which the hut will spawn in another random location within the forest.

However, if seven corpses or more are placed within the fireplace during a month, the Lord of the Floor will be summoned.[3]
The Witch´s Hut hides another secret. If Riakis is defeated by a 5 man team and the events leading to the Witch´s curse to poison the world are successfully recreated in the visions caused by the floor guardian, "The Witch Ellis Groundia" [4]
herself (or an echo of her presence) will be found at her hut, asking "NOT TO OPEN THE GATES OF THE ABYSS" on the tenth floor. Auril Gavis was desperate to discover this secret in his search for the Witch, but Bjorn Yandell did not share it.

(First phase)
Field erosion caused by the passive aura (Rain of Despair) and (Spirit of Chaos) deals continuous damage, and basins of eroded soil periodically emerge to restore Riakis' health. There's only one thing to watch out for at that point (Gap of Malice), an instant death skill used when you eat a certain amount of marbles (9); Destruction is easy, you just have to run away from the place. The problem is that if you leave the field, the designated "Prey" will be incapacitated. At that moment, Riakis is attracted to the "Prey", and if he manages to defeat it, the basic statistics increase and the difficulty of the next phase increases. (except for these it is easy because it is the end of the "Physical Battle").
(Second phase)
When his HP drops below a certain level, Riakis feels threatened and opens the (Chaos Gate) to absorb everyone: 1. Permanent erosion in all the floor. 2. High level of Mental Pollution.
The player has to locate and find Riakis in the worst field and deal with the guy he covered to numerous battle fixes. In fact it is the most difficult point only in terms of phase. However, if there is a "Purification Torch", the story is different, you just keep the torch lit and wait after 2 days of play, the (Chaos Gate) opens again and returns to the original field. (It is a little complicated to get so many purification torches but it is the easiest way), this strategy has the disadvantage that in the "Third Phase" Riakis is much stronger because he cannot fill himself with all the blood. However, it is much more beneficial to use a torch.
(Third phase)
(Spirit of Chaos) no longer appears, which are smaller versions of Riakis (the size of a wolf), instead (Rain of Despair) becomes stronger. Areas exposed to rain quickly become erosion zones and render all equipment useless. Until the labyrinth is closed, the numerical elements completely lose their effect and the defense power of the "Adamantium" armor (Rank 5), is reduced to the level of ordinary iron (Rank 1). You can no longer use "Immunity Mental" using torches. The chosen strategy would be the "War of Wheels", which is handled aggressively and constantly spilling blood.
(Fourth phase)
The most difficult thing is that you cannot get equipment since Riakis starts to eat, but if he wanders around looking for preys the penalty is removed. You must penetrate deeply through Riakis's 4 eyes. Doing this activates (Contaminated Body), a skill that recovers from the damage. An ominous black smoke billows from the wounds, gradually becoming stronger than before. After eating 12 of the 36 corpses that may be contaminated, you are contaminated "...The contaminated power begins to get out of control...". From that moment on it is a race against time. 1. Applies (Blessings for Pilgrims). 2. "...The unknown energy hidden in chaos begins to purify the contaminated power..."
Riakis takes about 5 minutes to purify the (Contaminated Body) and return to its original state The time limit for the wide pattern is 10 minutes. After that time, Riakis recovers his body in an instant and all effects disappear, you only have to administer the 10 minutes of damage distribution and the boss battle will end without patterns nor additional phases, paying attention to safety as much as possible without becoming impatient.
After the final blow to Riakis, the Lord of Chaos activates (Stained Heart). The blackened body is found screaming in some pain but without sound being heard. "...Contaminated energy is starting to get out of control again..."
Like a water balloon pressed by the fist, the whole body repeats growing and shrinking. "...An ancient pilgrim rejects tainted power..."
Soon, the monster's body, which had been mutating like an unstable substance, swells like an explosion and flashes. [6]
It is possible to obtain: [7]
1. The "Essence of Chaos".
2. Floor Stone that allows you to open a "Rift" in that floor once.
3. Noble Hierarchical Phantasm, which has a higher rank than the 1-digit numeric element.
Achievements:
1. "You have defeated Lord of Chaos Riakis. EXP +100".
2. "Bonus for defeating Lord of the Floor. EXP. +15".
Condition: Defeat the Lord of the Third Floor. Reward: Permanently increases "Spiritual Power" by +50.
If after the raid, if you go to the "witch's hut" and enter the flames, your "Mental Resistance" will increase significantly and the character will move to the "Witches' Forest"
Hidden Reward: Permanently increases your "Mental Resistance" by +50 [8]
Essence: The "Essence of Chaos" consists of 2 skills. 1 Passive and 1 Active, that's all; Considering that you can get up to 5 active Skills from the "Guardian Essence", it must be a very poor composition, but... "Sometimes there is 1 better than 100."
(Chaos) (P): Increases the amount of negativity the wearer has by 2 times and increases all statistics in proportion to the increase in the amount of "Negativity".
The negative values of the essences include but do not necessarily only refer to:
In (Dungeon & Stone), a "coefficient" is established for each statistic and according to that coefficient the value of each element divided into physical and mental abilities increases.
For example, in the case of:
1. "Skill" with a coefficient of 0.5, when the stat increases by +1, the skill value increases by 0.5.
2. "Discernment", which is a high value statistic, the coefficient is 3.
Most statistics have coefficients greater than 0. But sometimes you can see negative coefficients, which develop "Negative Statistics".
When a + attachment appears to that statistic, the skill is reduced. Example: "Obsesion" Goblin Archer (low) / Ertes (Medium) / Carnivaro (High).
Conversely, when a statistic with a coefficient of 0 or greater has a + attached, it is called a "Weakening Value."
Bjorn Yandel when doing the calculations of the different weakening values of the negative statistics of the essences of Erwen Fornacci Di Tersia together with their respective coefficients and the coefficient of the "Essence of Chaos" the number gave "53.8"
This essence is very good for "Damage Dealers". However for "Tanks" it only reduces damage and increases tankiness.
(Chaos Circuit) (A): All the resources a character possesses merge into one. When all resources are consumed, you will be able to use the power of Chaos. It is a skill that integrates resources such as mana, natural power, soul power, and divine power into a single meter.
In the case of Erwen summoning "Dichloe, King of Darkness" that previously using maximum power, the 5 second limit increased to 30 seconds. In addition, once all resources have been consumed, the effect of the (Chaos Circuit) is activated, which does not consume all resources for 1 minute. The so-called "Infinite Energy Mode".
It can be coupled with the skill (Concentrated Fire), which is a concentration of white light from the arrow giving an effect of exponential MP consumption in proportion to the time of the launch.
1. After 15 seconds the MP consumption increases greatly and the damage increase decreases.
2. Therefore it is best to wait and fire another shot since the cooldown time is 60 seconds.
3. As a consequence of the 2 skills used at the same time, the unknown energy contained in the body is drained and all statistics are temporarily reduced by 70%.
