[Thunder Magic ★] 279/1000 (+166)
Continuing to use seven days, Kain turned every corner of the second floor of the Dungeon upside down, killing every monster he encountered, killing them all, until the entire large floor was cleared of monsters.
After that, finish off the guardian monster. In conclusion, the result of exhausting the first floor was an astonishing 166 skill points.
This was the result of dividing up the kills and optimizing each skill point obtained. As soon as he discovered that [Level] was no longer zero, Kain would immediately add all of it to [Thunder Magic ★] without thinking. That's why the number of skill points was so large.
Today, Kain will go to the third floor.
Kain now had three weeks left, and he set a limit for himself that he would move up to a new floor every seven days, regardless of whether he had exhausted all the benefits of the floor he was on or not.
Previously, every time he got a skill point, Kain would always have to think about where to invest it appropriately.
This leads to the number of skill points he loses growing over time.
Even though it was because of "thinking carefully". But looking at it from another angle, wasn't this because he was hesitating?
Kain withdrew his dagger, shaking his aching arm.
These past few days had been the most intense days of Kain's entire life. Even with [Enhancement Body], he was pushed to his limits many times.
However, this was not without its benefits. Because of that constant and intense movement, Kain felt his body's limits gradually being stretched.
And he also had another benefit, which was that his energy was still perfect.
Kain went up to the third floor.
After a moment of feeling dazed and disoriented, Kain arrived at the white bones on the third floor of the Dungeon.
Kain used his magic skill, extending his spiritual wavelength to the surrounding environment. Because the terrain here was not complicated except for piles of bones, Kain did not need to use [Imitative].
One limitation of [Spirit Magic] is that during the low-class magic phase, the user of [Spirit Magic] cannot use both [Seek] and [Imitative] at the same time, but can only use them one after the other. If you use [Seek], you cannot use [Imitative], if you use [Imitative], you cannot use [Seek].
This happens because you only have one spiritual wavelength to control. Using it for one purpose will not work for another.
This can be solved when [Spirit Magic] is promoted to mid-class. Then the magic skill [Mind Sense] will open a new magic skill, it is called [Multiple Thinking].
With this magic skill, Magus can split their mind into two or more parts. Allowing them to handle two magic skills belonging to the [Spirit Magic] system at the same time.
This is not the same as thinking and doing multiple actions at the same time, like using both hands to draw two different pictures. Because even if it were possible, in theory, the spiritual wavelength is only one.
Meanwhile, [Multiple Thinking] is essentially a division from the core of thinking, which is the mind. Therefore, multiple new spiritual wavelengths can be emitted.
At that time, the two magic skills [Seek] and [Imitative] can combine together, creating a comprehensive magic skill called [Mind Map], a map that has both shallowness and depth.
Back to reality, the reason Kain is saving energy is because on the third floor, Kain wants to make a big move!
Previously, he had almost ignored the monsters on this floor, but now he had changed his mind.
And Kain began hunting on a large scale.
Not only does he constantly use [Seek], he sometimes creates his own movements to attract monsters to attack him.
A risky move, but much more effective than hunting each prey individually.
Seeing the Skeleton Salamanders climbing over the pile of bones and charging towards him, each ball of fire hovered and rotated around Kain.
Unlike normal Skeletons, these Skeletons are built on the Salamander's skeleton, making them much stronger than normal Skeletons. Not to mention that they can continue to collect bones and strengthen their protective shell.
For these stubborn Skeletons, even with [Fire Bullet]'s damage pushed to its maximum, it would take two shots to kill a Skeleton Salamander.
The skill points collected from the Skeleton Salamander were not too different from the Skeleton Centipede, both were four skill points if Kain was at [Level]: 0.
The quality of the monsters here was also better than the second floor, leading to Kain gaining a very good amount of skill points even though it was only the first day.
[Thunder Magic ★] 354/1000 (+75)
On the first day alone, Kain killed no less than thirty normal Skeletons, and twelve Salamander Skeletons.
This was almost half of all the things he had dug up from the second floor of the Dungeon. However, it would not be easy to gain that many skill points in the coming days, because he had almost exhausted all his available energy.
For at least the next three days, Kain could only fight while resting, to avoid taking too many losses. After all, aside from the usual monsters, he still had a rather difficult guardian monster to deal with.
So no matter what, Kain had to be in perfect condition to kill the guardian monster on the seventh day.
The next day, Kain stopped making reckless moves and focused on hunting normal Skeletons, ignoring the Salamander Skeletons to speed up the process of accumulating skill points.
On the third day, Kain, after accumulating some energy, focused on recovering his physical functions with [Heal]. The purpose of this was because he wanted to start accumulating energy again. On the third day, Kain still ignored the Skeleton Salamanders as before and focused on hunting the normal Skeletons.
Because his body had recovered somewhat, Kain no longer needed to use high-cost magic skills to kill monsters. Instead, he used daggers and [Enhancement Body].
