So, when Bear Barry heard this piece of news, he was excited and didn't hesitate, getting to work right away.
He was also hopeful that if Dean McKenzie needed to increase his strength, he might help him reach the eighth-turn after his own seventh-turn transformation.
However, this was wishful thinking on his part.
In truth, Dean McKenzie was simply making preparations and wasn't planning to make the seventh-turn transformation unless absolutely necessary.
Because before Doggy Two and the others reached their seventh-turn, Dean McKenzie estimates that his own seventh-turn achievement could at best challenge Hell or Abyss level difficulty.
The cost-effectiveness is not high!
Plus, Dean McKenzie hadn't forgotten about the raid - [Goblin Uprising].
The level for that raid is a six-turn, so once Dean McKenzie upgrades to a seventh-turn, the raid would no longer be accessible.
So, Dean McKenzie was just holding onto his experience points.
