Hahaha! I laugh aloud in satisfaction.
Just before me, I have around 500 clones. It took me a few days to gather this much but it is worth it.
This time I applied all of my stat points to my wisdom.
[System Title: Suicidal Divider
Worldly Titles: Veteran Assister, Monster General Slayer, Jungle Scholar
Level: 30
Mana points: 10/240
Strength: 8
Agility: 23
Defense: 8
Stamina: 22
Wisdom: 65
Mind: 5
Tolerance: 6 ]
This might seem weird but this is the best and smartest choice. Since I have the jungle scholar title, I need to put my priority in my wisdom to maximize my mana points.
I just have a brilliant idea. I split my clone army into five group each composing of a hundred clones.
I have one group, the Saitama division, do 100 push ups, 100 squats, a 100 kilometer run until they hit their limit and vanish. This will increase my agility, strength and stamina.
For the second group, the Hitter Division, they will come in pair. One will attack their partner until their partner gets slain. Repeatedly doing this will increase my defense.
Since I doubt the clones can heal I will have to be harsh and let them stop until they get destroyed.
The third, the Masochist Division, will be the ones in danger. They will receive attacks non stop from various monsters without fighting back. This will increase my tolerance.
As for the fourth group, the fighter division, I will have them try and defeat those monsters on their own. I believe that with my level I can defeat some of them.
As for the last group, they will either continue farming for EXP and exploit the assist feature or scout the areas.
As for me, I guess I shall just stay here in the safe zone and sleep like a king.
Using this method. I have my real body just lazily lie around doing nothing. Yet my exp and status are increasing like crazy.
After every level up and my MP becomes maxed, I hurrily create more clones to increase my manpower. I then allocate around 30 clones to meditate and increase my mind stats.
However, I can create a maximum of 1000 clones and beyond that my head starts to hurt. I guess maybe these clones borrow a portion of my consciousness.
Regardless, I chose the best system out of the group.
Hahaha!
[+10,000 EXP
+40,000 EXP
+20,000 EXP
....
....
+Level up
+Level up]
My stats is in the same situation as well.
[ +2 Strength
+1 Agility
+ 4 Tolerance
+3 Defense
+2 Strength
+4 Mind
+ 1 Stamina
....]
As for the masochist division, I have them face against fire, lightning and poison elemental beasts and recieve their hits. Since they are clones, it doesn't matter if they die. I just have to send another one to take their hits.
Doing this repeatedly, I gain some resistances.
[+ Greater Poison Immunity acquired
+ Greater Fire resistance acquired
+ Greater Lightning resistance acquired ]
[New title acquired!
Heavy trainer!
Punching bag!
Suicidal Hero!]
Two weeks passes, I notice that the increase in my EXP is slowly declining. It's getting harder to level up as I increase my level.
Since I have a high stats, it seems my clones can defeat the monsters in this area. Not alone, but if they attack in groups.
Though not without casualty. Many of my clones are getting annihilated as well after abandoning the assist strategy.
I notice something strange. After some time, my clones have gained some sentience but they are only capable of communication.
"Creator, we have scouted the most of the areas now. It is now only composed of neutral beasts." A clone reports from the 5th division.
Neutral beasts, those are the term we name for monsters that won't attack if unharmed. The assist strategy won't work on these creatures, thus I will have the Fighter division to fight them.
"Is that so? And don't call me creator. Call me Lord Verni. Haha or maybe Verni is fine."
"Verni-234 reporting, we have found a way to escape chameleon domain."
We have spent weeks scouting and we cannot find a way to leave this area. Despite having many paths, these are all interconnected and finding the path to leave is difficult.
Chameleon domain is the term I gave for this area, since this area is used to be ruled by the King Chameleon.
A full month has now passed since I have been transported here.
Looks like it is a bad habit of mine to rely too much to my clones. Regardless, I lived comfortably by treating them like tools.
Anyhow, I think it is my time to move. Now, only neutral beasts remain. My exp farming have grind into a halt. Also a screen appears before me.
[Cannot Add Strength (Maximum has been achieved)
Cannot Add Stamina (Maximum has been achieved)...]
Looks like my clone division status generator will have to be dissolved.
I need to check my status first.
It seems I have acquired 24 worldly titles and each boosts my system. Though it was my clones who acquired it.
[System Title: Suicidal Divider
------------
Worldly Titles: Grand Assister, Monster Dungeon Slayer, Suicidal Hero, Ultimate Sneaker, Heavy Trainer...

Strength: 750 (Max)
Agility: 750 (Max)

Stamina: 750 (Max)

Tolerance: 750 (Max) ]
Everything is maxed out except for my wisdom. It can't be helped since I have no way to increase it except by system points. There are no books or tomes here to read.
After some time, I finally reached beyond level 100 and advanced to level 105.
[New System Title:Reckless Cloner:
+A maximum of 3000 can be created at the same time
+ Max capacity for all stats are raised to 1500
+Cool Down Loan skill]
[New Unique Skill Unlocked:
Cool Down Loan: Multiple skill cool down can be neglected with this skill. However, the accumulative cool down time must not exceed 3 hours. Not only works for [Character Division] Skill ]
Cool down loan? That sounds interesting but judging from this, it seem it will be a big help for my cloning skill.
Right now, if I want to make a clone I will have a 5 second cool down. It may not be much but if I want to make 100 clones in battle, will need to wait 500 seconds. It isn't practical.
Thus if I can just loan the cool down I can create as much clones as I want instantly. Computing, I can make a maximum of 2,160 clones.
When I was lower level, my maximum for my clones is 1000. Looks like being level 100 is a new game changer.
It's also good that my capacity for my stats has also increased. Perhaps I can do the same tactics once again.
But now, I think I'm quite strong. Level 100, huh? I wonder if I'm stronger than my classmates?
I need to find a way to return back to the surface.
All of my clones drop dead from the stats and exp farming and I haven't replace even one. I have no intentions since I'm leaving.
Until the last one vanishes I'm gonna leave this place. Also, it's no use to farm here anymore since I'm now stronger than the monsters. Their EXP are no longer worth it.
At some point, the last clone dies.
I then left and have finally stepped outside the safe zone. I don't even need a torch with me even if it is pitch black.
With my clones eating all the monsters here, I have gained around 40+ acquired skills from various attributes.
I activate one of my skills.
[Night Vision]+[Magic Sense] = [Ultimate Sight]
Not only I have a clear visibility in the dark I can also detect traces left by magical creatures. With magic sense, I can detect magical presence even one that is meant to be hidden.
I cannot gain the memories of my clones but I can learn what they experienced. Since it is common that my clones are often attacked by monsters that hide their presence.
I guess I need new clothes since my uniform hasn't been washed for a month.
Just when I am about to leave the area, a monster shows up blocking my path.
[Greatest Heavy Ground Spider
Level 90]
I then smile. This spider is a good point of reference on how strong I am now. When I first came here, I can't even scratch an inferior version of this monster.
Using [Skill Combiner]...
[Fire blast]+[Rock Smash]=[Meteor Doom]
I then aim my arm upon it. Large flames that can devour a house emerge upon my fist, it then gathers rocks from the surroundings and accumulate on my palms.
[Meteor Doom!]
I then shoot it out, blasting the spider without trace. I also made a giant canal, dissolving anything on its path. Once it hits the wall, a large rumble occurs and a heavy blast engulfs the area.
Eh?! I worry I have gone too far.
[Skill Combine] is the skill I unlocked when I reached level 80. I can combine two compatible skills and make new ones. It is a very useful skill to enhance my elemental attacks.
Coming close to where my meteor doom hit, there are no trace of the spider left. Naturally, the Ground Spider has the highest defense in this area. To imagine it got incinerated in one hit, I guess I'm quite powerful now. Hahaha!
I even made a hole through the rocky wall.
Entering the hole, I eventually end up in an old hall way. Mosses are already encroaching the walls and ceiling. The details are gone from dirt. This place looks ancient.
This is a human architecture. I kinda miss seeing buildings. But this nothing looks like an ordinary structure.
After treading through the hallways. There are intersections and paths as well. Despite being dim, it isn't a concern for me.
However, I stop when my [magic sense] detects some oddities.
I can sense this air is dense with dark energy.
[Contracting Dark Effects]
[Negative effects Resisted!]
I'm quite confused what this means. Maybe my system can explain.
[Answer. This area is filled with dark mana that can cause ghoulification. To resist, a high tolerance is needed.
------------
Ghoulification: Is the transformation of a living being into an undead]
I see, so that's what is going on. It will be bad if I turn into a ghoul. Glad I resisted it. It was a good choice of mine to increase my tolerance.
Using my [magic sense] once again, a hostile aura is approaching.
A skeleton warrior is approaching from the distance. It is fully equipped in steel plate armor. It gnarls as it comes close.
[Stray Ghoul
Status: Undead
Level: 100
Elemental Affinity: Dark
HP: 15,000]
Hmm? If this ghoul is a lesser monster it means this area is higher level compare to the chameleon domain.
Looks like I have entered another even more powerful area.
Use skill, [Combustible Fist!]
I gather mana on my fist and then convert them into flames. I charge forward in a blink of an eye. With my high stat agility, I can move faster than a bullet.
I grin sternly. I then whip it harshly with my flaming fist striking its body, following with an explosion. The ghoul's body disintegrates into pieces.
[+45,000 EXP]
As expected of my high stat strength.
Looks like I won't have to rely with my 'assist' strategy. I'm fully capable of battling high-level monsters.
"Hahaha! Would you look at that? Looks like my adventure starts now!"
