This monster was not as huge as the Pythonel that Kain had faced on the fourth floor. But there is something very different about it.
Moreover, even before Kain clicked, the monster had already stood up, its head fixed on him, as if this Pythonel had been waiting for Kain all along.
By now, everything is clear.
This guardian monster is the leader monster with the thinking ability he has always been searching for.
The limitations of the guardian monster room have long been proven.
Thus, it was understood why its control over other monsters was weaker than the Salamander leader on the fourth floor of the Dungeon. Obviously, even though he didn't know how this room worked, the guardian monster's room was no different from a cage.
After all the mysteries were cleared up, Kain no longer needed to pretend.
He slowly stepped out and raised his hand, a terrifying bolt of lightning appeared from the void, lighting up the hallway and illuminating Kain's cold, emotionless face.
All the fatigue of the past two days seemed like just a play, a disguise.
The power of lightning is so terrifying that it seems like it can destroy everything in the world, but in the hands of Kain, the violent lightning bolts are like dogs that have found their owners.
An illusory bow appears, swirling with air and electricity, Kain pulls the invisible bowstring, each bolt of static electricity bouncing back and forth from the impact. And then, the surrounding lightning contracted and twisted, forming the shape of an arrow from the tip of Kain's finger holding the bowstring.

[Thunder Control level 1] 0/250 (+100)
Kain knew that the Pythonel had been trying to wear down his stamina for the past few days, but Kain still acted like he was trapped so that it wouldn't change its strategy.
In truth, Kain had nothing to fear. Because no matter how smart the monster was, it will never figure out his secret weapon.
Kain released the bowstring, and the thunder arrow shot forth at a furious speed.
The air was torn apart, and the sound could not be kept up. And no matter how the Pythonel tried to fight back, it failed. The terrifying power of this attack directly broke through the monster's defenses and killed it beyond death.
A monster that ruled the highest, deepest floor of the Dungeon for who knows how many years, now died a tragic death.
With just one attack.
However, after performing this attack, Kain could feel like he was hollowed out. Exhausting himself from just one attack may sound exaggerated, but it still makes sense since Kain had already expended quite a bit of energy previously.

26 skill points... Not bad at all for a guardian monster.
Kain thought, temporarily not upgrading [Thunder Magic] anymore. Because the required number of skill points was too large, he needed another higher level hunting ground to be able to "satisfy" this hungry magic.
Therefore, Kain will invest the other 26 skill points into another magic skill.
Kain was torn between two choices.
[Seek], or [Enhancement Tool].
The usefulness of [Seek] is beyond question. However, the next location Kain is going to have a very high limit on [Spirit Magic]. So upgrading [Spirit Magic] at this time is not the best choice.
Meanwhile, [Enhancement Tool] if used on defensive items can greatly increase Kain's survivability against surprise attacks.
So, Kain still decided to choose [Enhancement Tool].
[Enhancement Tool level 3] 0/16 (+26)
Kain tested it out and sure enough, both clothes and weapons could be enhanced.
However, the magical effects inherent in the uniform did not change, it seemed that "magic" itself was still a different category.
Kain did not leave immediately, he turned back into the Dungeon. After all, the seventh day was not over yet.
Kain decided to go hunting.
For him right now, earning a few dozen skill points is as easy as turning his hand.
Very quickly, a pile of skill points flowed into Kain's pocket. And his magic skill leveled up continuously.
[Enhancement Tool level 5] 0/22 (+54)
At this point, because there wasn't much time left, Kain was forced to leave.
The entire Dungeon returned to silence and began to rebuild.
After a moment of swaying, Kain returned to the intersection between the first floor and the outside world.
He felt that since becoming a mid-class Magus, his perception had become much tougher, and the bad conditions that occurred when moving from floor to floor had decreased.
"Unfortunately, I can only wear this flashy outfit to go out."
Kain sobbed, his tone filled with helplessness.
Kanzax Academy's uniform was very nice, he couldn't deny that. But the only thing he didn't like was that it stood out too much. The main color was too white.
But since it had come to this, Kain had no reason to hesitate and just calmly walked out.
But as he approached the entrance, Kain saw a line of people waiting, along with dozens of fully armored soldiers guarding and checking.
The people in line seemed to be Adventurers, all of them seemed to be annoyed at the soldiers checking everything and even their spoils, but faced with overwhelming power, no one dared to resist.
As for those soldiers, Kain looked at their armor that seemed to be cast from the same mold and knew that these people were clearly from an organization. Furthermore, they blocked the road here and searched everyone who came out.
"Oh, waiting for me?"
Kain smirked, giving an enigmatic smile.
He just calmly walked forward.
