Kain plans to head south.
The Akazac Empire is divided into nine different provinces. Except for The Capital province, the other eight provinces are governed by Commanders of that province. The north where Kain is located belongs to the territory of Kanzax province, whose head is Kanzax Commander.
The place he wanted to go now was a small city called Whesling, located next to a medium-sized Dungeon.
Besides adventuring, Kain also wanted to try medium-sized Dungeons to see what it was like.
The Dungeon that Kain conquered before was only of the "super small" type. It was too basic, the only monsters were Zombies.
A normal small-sized Dungeon also has up to five different floors with gradually increasing difficulty. Each floor has monsters that defend Dungeons, enough to understand how terrible even small-sized Dungeons are.
Small-sized Dungeons are already like that, so how big can medium-sized Dungeons be?
Kain didn't remember, but he was looking forward to it.
It's just that to be able to collide with a medium-sized Dungeon, he must increase his own strength first.
Kain looked at the slimy living creature hanging on the tree branch, his face showing caution.
This seemingly harmless monster actually possesses a relatively intelligent hunting mechanism.
Slimes will gather in groups, climb up any tree, then use their semi-liquid nature to turn that tree into a high humidity, comfortable environment. Pleasant roofs help attract other living creatures.
Some may be insects that like high humidity and humid environments, some may be larger animals looking for shelter from the heat.
At that time, Slime will fall from the tree, drown the prey with its body, and then digest the prey.
So if you see a tree with animal bones next to the tree's base and an unusual temperature. It's best to go somewhere else, because there's likely a herd of Slimes waiting to eat you up.
However, once discovered, the predatory form of this Slime species was completely suppressed by Kain.
Thunder fell from the sky, directly hitting the tops of trees. Right there, chunks of Slime looked like large water bubbles falling from the tree branches.
Kain counted, about twenty Slimes. Seeing them fall, Kain raised his hand, [Thunder Bullet] was prepared to destroy all these slimy people.
Monsters coming out of the Dungeon are not rare. Through some mysterious mechanism, the Dungeon will always produce monsters even after being cleared, so monsters in the Dungeon must always be liquidated properly. periodic.

Having two skill points, Kain decided to add them to [Thunder Summon] to get it to level 2. But thinking about it, if a skill cannot be controlled well, it can easily cause harm to both others and himself. him. So Kain decided to put it in [Thunder Navigation].
[Thunder Navigation level 0] 2/ 3
"Twenty Slimes can only level up two levels, I wonder how this thing's level calculation mechanism works?"
Kain sighed, but there was no way.
In Kain's memory, practicing magic was not easy at all. That's why the bandit leader was surprised to learn that he was Magus.
At this moment, Kain met an acquaintance again.
Calling it an acquaintance isn't exactly right, it should be "the person Kain just chased away the other day".
No one else but that group of mountain bandits.
"Leader, what do we do now? Everyone is very tired, if there is no additional food, I'm afraid..."
A bandit spoke in fear.
The bandit leader also became silent.
Being a bandit is inherently a bunch of gluttonous and lazy people. Whatever they eat, whatever they spend, it's all stolen wealth. They have never thought about working themselves to create any value.
"Maybe, we will return to that village."
"Back there? Leader, there's Magus there!"
"I know, but I have another way to kill that Magus."
After that, all the bandits followed their leader, and Kain also secretly followed.
Kain was curious to see what method the other man would use to put a Magus to death.
Finally, the bandits stopped in front of a large cave entrance.
"Just as you are thinking, this is a Dungeon!"
"I intend to lead monsters from inside to attack that village. Even if that brat is Magus, he will still die!"
The leader's eyes showed hatred.
The humiliation that day was still imprinted in his mind.
"But… how do we lure the monster out?"
"Stupid question! Of course it's with... human flesh!"
"Human flesh? Why do we have human flesh?"
"Idiot! Don't you see those injured people? Kill them and bring them meat!"
The bandit leader roared.
Although the remaining bandits were scared, no one dared to object.
Kain, watching from afar, couldn't help but shake his head. The brutality of these bandits was indeed in their blood. Even killing accomplices as bait for monsters can still be done without hesitation.
The fear of the remaining bandits was not because they were afraid that their comrades would die, but because they were afraid that it would be their turn to be prey.
In that case, today Kain will eliminate them right here, purging the future disaster.
Kain chose a suitable position, took out his bow and arrow and placed the arrow on the bowstring, pulling it tight.
The arrow pierced the air and stabbed straight into the head of a bandit, killing him instantly. Seeing this, the rest of the group panicked and quickly ducked down to avoid the arrow. Taking that opportunity, Kain continued to shoot and defeat two more bandits.
"There's an archer attack!
"Unable to determine location!"
In this terrain, it is difficult to detect and pursue a target. Let alone a target capable of being attacked from a distance.
Kain pulled the bowstring tight and continued to shoot and kill another mountain bandit.
Kain doesn't want to kill, but in this world, sometimes it's not impossible to not want to.
When he needs to act, he will act without hesitation. If he gave these bandits a way to live, they most likely wouldn't appreciate it, and on the contrary, they might harm the people Kain loves.
Therefore, Kain absolutely will not let any prey escape today.
"You idiots! Get up, hide in the Dungeon!"
The bandit leader saw that the situation was not good, quickly shouted and ran into the cave. The bandits were also extremely scared and ran inside.
"Are you trying to lure me in there to attack? It's in vain that you have a head and still go out to be a bandit."
Kain immediately understood the bandit leader's intentions.
