The Archangel of Death - Chapter 65
65: Slime dungeon: Alone (1) 65: Slime dungeon: Alone (1) Chapter 65 Now the gain part.
[You have slain a slime x3154] [You have gained 3,154,000,000 EXP] [You have gained 31,540,000 coins] [You have gained a slime core x3154] Thanks to Allison, she was stopping the integration of this massive level-up once again.
This wouldn’t only affect me but also the girls so I had to be sure they were safe and thank goodness they were still inside their rooms according to Allison.
“Do it.” I permitted the integration of the stats loudly before I entered the boss room.
This wasn’t a massive level-up like in the Bat Dungeon when I killed the vampire.
It was just an increase of 42 levels so despite some muscle pain from the realignment, there wasn’t much of a problem for me.
My muscles crackled as my body settled according to the new changes.
It was a short process of twenty minutes and after it was done, I stayed in a spot and let my body cool down a bit.
There were notifications regarding the girl’s increase in level but I left it for later.
For now, all of my focus was on my own status.
Status: [Name: Adrian Von Deus Lux LV: 171 [EXP 54,700,000220,000,000] Age: 16 Race: Human HP: 10971750 MP: 7711720 STR: 230 AGI: 230 END: 180 PER: 230 INT: 290 CHR: 270 LUCK: 180 SP: 100 SKILLS: Heal LV: 9 (28219000) Divine Shield LV: 8 (2513000) Magic bullet (high) LV: 8 (318000) Bless LV: 8 (2593000) Decay LV: 9(991210000) Shadowverse LV: 3(8300) Regeneration (intermediate) LV: 9(7769000) Monarch of Frost LV: Max TITLES: None Achievement(s): 2] My highest gain was still in terms of the Magic Bullet as it was near another evolution.
Still, some of my other skills had shown progress and many others were near evolution or level up.
I had thought of using Monarch of Frost briefly during the fight but I discarded such a thought.
My INT wasn’t that much to use it.
Unless it was on the peak of A-rank or 400 at minimum, I wasn’t risking using the skill.
I doubt it would even activate.
[Your party member Rose is now Level 229] [Your party member Laura is now Level 149] Rose’s level had increased by twenty-four while Laura experienced an increase to the peak of D rank.
There was no message regarding Alicia so I guessed she was thwarted by a breakthrough.
It was a pity but nothing could be done about it.
At least now Laura and Alicia were equal in terms of strength.
In terms of talent, well that was a different story.
Phew, finally, it was time to face the boss of this dungeon.
I only hope that it is a B- in rank.
[It isn’t] Damn.
It would have been amazing though.
I would have gained a few more levels.
Still, this dungeon wasn’t going anywhere and after a month or so, the number of slimes on each floor would regenerate to at least about 200 each so until I hit level 200, this dungeon was great for farming.
I prepared myself and entered the cave where the boss resided.
At first, I couldn’t see anything but my senses picked up the presence of something moving in one dark corner of the room.
When I concentrated, I saw a massive blob of green goo.
It was square in shape and it was a cube.
It was at least five feet high and in the middle of it was a yellow globe, almost the size of a football.
The ball slash core in the middle had dark black lines in the middle that gave it the image of an eye.
[Slime of destruction Rank: C+ A superior race of slime that can assimilate other lower-grade slimes in itself to make itself stronger.
Although its nature doesn’t change, doing so has a great effect on its strength and abilities.
Additional information: Can control lower-level slimes so it is advised to kill all lower-level slimes before facing it.] In other words, although it is of only Rank C+, its stat might be higher than that.
And considering how big it was, I had a hunch it had absorbed slimes to its limit.
As for controlling slimes, if there were none in this room, then I was a hundred present sure I had dealt with the rest.
As soon as I became aware of its presence and finished checking its description, my senses warned me of an incoming attack and I swiftly dodged to the left. Just in time as well as a pillar of water horizontally passed very closely to me.
It was like a water cannon only the shot was much longer.
When I turned to glance at where the water canon landed, I realized that it wasn’t quite water but acid as even the rocks and ground in the area were melting.
I gulped seeing such an attack.
It wasn’t much of a problem dodging it but I had no idea how much and how swiftly it could shoot those. That curiosity of mine was resolved when my head was still turned to examine the effects of the acid canon when another felt like coming my way.
I dodged with great speed considering my agility was within good limits of B- rank but even then I was grazed slightly on my left arm.
“Arghh…” Even I who is used to pain couldn’t help but groan slightly as my skin melted down to the bone under the acid’s effects.
‘Put fifty AP in END.’ I hurriedly instructed as I turned and started to move to make it harder for the slime to attack me.
It was a foolish move from my side as when I would engage the second step of the Penta enhancement array, my END would increase by at least a hundred or more points.
But right now my END was too low compared to the attacks of this slime, my skin was melted down to the bone and because of the low END, my defense was too low to have second chances.
Acid cannons kept coming at me and I kept running around to dodge them as I felt the empowerment from the increase in END.
Now my END was in the B- rank so I suspected there would be a chance to hold out.
Under the effects of the END increase, I felt my body go a little rigid but it wasn’t much since my flexibility was affected by AGI and it was also high enough.
My skin also hardened quite a bit compared to before.
I stopped running in a circle and started to close the distance while still running in a circle but compacting the movements of the circle.
Each rotation of my run was shortened by an inch every time and finally, I was close enough and everything was prepared.
[Bless] [Magic bullet] I first cast ‘Bless’ on myself and felt the empowerment of a twenty-five percent increase, then I concentrated ten magic bullets, each worth a hundred MP. I manually controlled the ‘Magic bullets’, each the size of a baseball, and shot them in a circle around the slime like how I was running earlier.
It was like a ring of light around the slime as I controlled them to move very fast but soon their limit would be reached and they would explode by themselves.
But they were doing what I wanted them to do right now.
Distract the slime.
It was now shooting water canon at the bullets but their fast speed made it hard for an attack to land.
Still, two magic bullets exploded under the constant attacks from the slime.
But I was able to gather the data I needed.
The eyeball slash core in the slime could only move in a circle.
In other words, it couldn’t see above nor could it see down.
Hence why I was able to approach it from behind it by crawling on the ground.
The rocks grazed my skin and it was irritating, but with my natural defense, it wasn’t harmful.
[Wear clothes then] So they can be malted away again?
No thanks.
Just the protection of the most important part is enough.
Finally, I was right behind the slime, but since it was a cube, it could be said that I was right at the front, left, or right.
Anyway, I extended my hand and touched it slightly with my finger.
It was irritating but it wasn’t harmful like the acid canons shot by this guy.
So I fully touched it with my hand.
As expected, it felt my presence and a goo of acid started to form around the area where my hand was but it was too late already.
[Decay] I started using the skill decay with the rest of my MP and started to chip away at the slime slowly.
Since it didn’t have a mouth, there was no sound of pain but it did start to shake vigorously.
I wasn’t one to show mercy to a monster who almost melted me so many times in this short amount of time so I used the skill without mercy.
It started to slide away from me but I crawled closer to it at the same time.
Its defense mechanisms of concentrating acid around its skin were useless under the destructive power of decay.
Decay was the strongest skill from the curse branch of the element of death so its destructiveness was guaranteed.
Its only drawback was that I had to be touching my target.
Usually, an opponent has the good sense to dodge or move away before the full effects of decay can be displayed but slimes usually have low agility.
This big of a mass and its low agility is guaranteed.
Granted, I wasn’t unharmed either.
The acid on the ground was still harming my skin and the outer shell of my flesh was almost all gone from the front, the part that was in contact with the ground.
My HP was still half left though so it wasn’t a problem.
But pain isn’t in tandem with the loss of HP.
A prick of a needle can hurt a lot when it doesn’t even take a point of HP.
So although I wasn’t dying, the pain from acid was something.
Finally, My MP was completely depleted but not even half of the original slime was left.
There was no need to use decay as I shot the eight bullets that were on the verge of exploding at the slime in a straight line.
They penetrated it deep enough and finally, they fell on its core and destroyed it.
[HP: 1521750] [MP: 31720] [You have slain a slime] [You have gained 1000000 EXP] [You have gained 10000 coins] [You have gained an Eye of Recovery] [You have gained slime essence x50] [You have gained slime juice x50] [You have gained a superior slime core] My HP and MP were mostly gone yet the amount of EXP and coins I gained was the same.
I feel like I was scammed.
This enemy was at least B in rank yet the amount of EXP gained was too low for that.
I did however gain a bunch of other stuff.
Since I was waiting for my MP to recover, I decided to check their descriptions as well.
[Slime essence Rank: C+ When added while brewing a potion, the effects of the potion are enhanced by 50 percent Limited to A-rank potions] What the ….
Is it real?
[Yep] I was astonished by the effects so I decided to check the rest as well.
[Slime Juice Rank: C+ Restores the ability of a male to reproduce for a short amount of time.
Enhances the pleasure given as well.
Warning: Too much use can cause irreversible damage] So in simpler words, it is Viagra.
Use it too much, and erectile dysfunction is waiting for you.
Useless to me.
[Superior slime core Rank: C+ Contains more mana by 300 percent than usual C+ slime cores] This one will be in terrible demand by the mages.
Three hundred percent means a lot by the looks of it.
I don’t how much though since I have no mana.
Though it sounds like a waste just selling it like that.
I will experiment with the lower cores first and then see if it can be done the same to it.
If so, then I will do the same to it as I planned.
