Chapter 22 - CH 22

Alpha's excitement went down, but it didn't change the fact that he needs to increase his dexterity

He gave himself a good slap, then continued in his way, he found a few more slimes, and killed them the same way

Eventually, he gained another level, and put all of his SP in DEX, rising it to 40, at this point, it didn't take more than one shot to kill a slime

Seeing his accuracy improve, he started shooting at the slimes from two steps away, instead of right next to them

It was a bit tricky at the start, but eventually, after gaining two more levels, he got the hang of it, and increased the distance to five steps

From that distance, it was harder to hit a small Target like a slime core, and he kept missing continuously

But, when he eventually hit his target, he gained a new title and a skill

Title [Marksman] : use projectiles to hit a Target from a distance , DEX+10% , skill [aim]

Active skill [aim] : give a 100% chance to hit your target , 30MP , CD:60s

The acquiring of that new skill got him really excited, and he immediately went looking for more slimes

When he found one, he stopped at about 30 steps away from it, used [aim] , then shot a wind bullet

It's only took one hit to kill it!! he would usually have to shoot multiple bullets and miss multiple times before he can land a hit

But this time, thanks to aim, it only needed one shot, this skill was so op, The only downside for it was the cooldown

but it didn't matter too much, because slimes weren't that easy to find, by the time he saw another one, this skill would have been ready to be used

He went around, use it a few times, and killed a few monsters, then he run out of Mana

It wasn't necessarily a bad thing, he could use this chance to increase his intelligence a bit more

He kept repeating this process a few more times until he reached level 22, at this point he got 4 more levels and 12SP

His previous goal was to increase his dexterity and improve his aiming, but now, he got the skill [aim], so increasing his dexterity isn't that necessary anymore

So he put all of those points into intelligence, and ended up with these status

STR: 55 (37+50%)

VIT : 66 (37+80%)

DEX: 57 (52+10%)

INT : 416 (160+160%)

This concludes the end of his fourth day in the dungeon, he reached level 22, and achieved his goal of improving his aiming

He realized that he has already become much stronger than the slimes, and he doesn't need to return to the safe Zone anymore

So he casually sat down, ate a few slime cores, then went back to experimenting with his body strengthening skill

Making his Mana follow with his bloodstream, gave him the first level of body strengthening

Then infusing his blood with more Mana gave him the second level, and infusing his heart with it gave him the third level, after which he infused his muscles with it, and that gave him the fourth level

The next logical step would be to infuse his bones with a Mana

He closed his eyes, and guided the Mana to cover all his bones, then he let it seep deep into his marrow

After each and every bone in his body got filled to the brim with Mana, his skill finally leveled up

Active skill [body strengthening V] : 20MP/min , STR+50% , DEX+50%

At this point his Mana pool was completely drained, although the skill itself doesn't require too much Mana, covering and feling every and each individual bone with it, required almost everything he have

Which is great, now he can refill his pool back up, then push it a little bit further and get that extra 1%INT

After he was done, he wanted to push his skill another level, he infused all sorts of different stuff in his body with Mana, now he pushed his attention to his skin

He closed his eyes and covered his skin with mana, and It instantly worked! but he didn't only level up his body strengthening, he also gained another skill

Active skill [body strengthening VI] : 50MP/min , STR+60% , DEX+60%

Active skill [Mana coat] : repels anything and everything, requires more Mana for stronger protection

As soon as he appraised that skill, The mask freaked out "that's basically being invincible!! especially with your freakishly huge mana pool! How in the world are you still a human after this?!!!"
