[You have Dealt 2,087 Damage]

[You have Dealt 1,780 Damage]

[You have hit a Vital Point]

[You have Dealt 4,081 Damage]

[You have killed a Level.110 Blue Ogre King]

[You have reached Level.87]

[You have obtained 10 Free stat points]

[You have Collected 7 Blue Ogre Hides]

Unlike the Hobgoblin Dungeon David found a much better Hunting Ground. Ogres a slow and dumb but quite durable compared to most creatures. But David had little difficulty tarring them apart with his claws and beak.

But David started to feel the pull of Sharing experience with the others as David had to kill over 40 Ogre's just to Level up.

'Seems I'm approaching the threshold for my first Class Advancement. I can't keep grinding my experience like this. I need to go to one of the open dungeons so the experience isn't divided.'

The experience needed to level up would only climb higher and higher as he got closer to his first Class advancement or technically his Second first class advancement before changing classes.

But David didn't want to venture into an open Dungeon just yet as he still had to gather more Data.

Most players would attack David without a second thought due to his appearance as either a Gecko or a Cockatrice.

But that was a problem for another day as he finished the scheduled bus ride and left without saying anything while ignoring the friend requests from the passengers.

He had better plans that day as he waited by a river until he heard a familiar voice.

"Mr.Chicken! I'm here!"

David kicked a rock at her head as before changing into his gecko form.

"I told you I'm not a chicken! Now… let's go explore those ruins."

David then sat on Noemi's head as they ventured through the woods. But a new problem appeared for them as Noemi had no idea where she was going let alone how to read the map correctly.

"Take a left pass those rocks."

"Huh? It says on the map to take a right. I think we should go-"

"Your holding the map upside down… go left."

"Are you sure? It doesn't look upside down? Maybe-"

"GO LEFT NOW!"

David felt his hair inside the capsule falling off but kept directing him and Noemi to their destination while making sure no one was following them.

[You have Discovered the Ancient Beastman Temple Ruin.]

[You are the first to discover the Ancient Beastman Temple Ruins]

David's instincts spiked up as the ground began to shake violently.

Noemi however was too afraid to move as the stones around them began to move and form together.

[The Golem Guardian has awoken]

[Golem Guardian Lv.355]

It was by no means as strong at Sol who had guarded the Dragon Kings Grave but it still was a monster neither David nor Noemi could defeat.

"Noemi run! Get as far away as you can! Dragons Rage! Radiant Roar! Take this! HAAAA!"

In quick succession David transformed into his Cockatrice form while Neomi ran and casted his buffing skill Dragons Rage while blinding the Golem, Or at least David had hoped to.

[You have Dealt 2 Damage]

[Radiant Roar's blindness has been dispelled]

'Dammit! It's too strong! Frost Blast!'

Once again David's actions were fruitless as the Golem didn't even have a scratch on its body.

David kept looking for an opening while narrowly avoiding its attacks but it had no openings.

All Golems both Naturally and artificially had a Golem core in its body. It houses all of its power inside of the core so an efficient way to beat a Golem was to find and destroy the core that was hidden in its body.

But David could not find it at all and to make matters worse the golem began multiplying by the hundreds until they were the average size of a human.

'Does it know that it could catch me while it was all clumped up together!? It's smart and realized how to solve its shortcomings as well!? But how?'

David had began to think of how this was possible.

All of the Golems David had found until now were dumb and slow witted but this one was smart and intelligent.

There was only one plausible answer to how this was possible.

'These Golems are being controlled or ordered! The caster must be nearby! I have to get rid of them first them first!'

If it weren't for the small amount of Healy potions he had collected the David would have died a long time ago during the fight. But his supply wasn't unlimited as he only had one more potion which he used to treat his broken leg after a golem smashed it with a tree.

It was painful but David had been through worse.

'I hope Neomi got out safely. I'll have to find a way to retreat and come back once I'm stronger.'

But to David's shock he witnessed Neomi being surrounded by the humaniod Golems as they kneeled towards her.

"Neomi!? What's going on!? Why aren't you running!?"

This brief moment of shock was all it took for one of the golems to smash another tree into David like a baseball bat.

[You have entered a Critical state!]

[Please use a health potion!]

David had thought he would die at that moment but saw Neomi act as a human shield. No one had ever done anything like that before for David.

'It seems it's the end for us both Neomi… I'll treat you to a nice meal once we respawn.'

But as a few minutes passed David opened his eyes to see all of the golems had stopped in place while Neomi yelled.

"Don't hurt Mr.Chicken! He is my friend!"

David's wound suddenly all healed themselves as a blinding flash emanated from both him and Neomi which meant they both leveled up.

[A Member of the Ancient Beastsman Sacred Order and her companions have been recognized by the Golem Guardian]

[You have successfully cleared the Ancient Beastman Ruins and can now explore freely]

[You have reached Level.97]

[You have gained 100 Free Stat Points]

[Your Party Member NeomiHunt has reached Level 78]

Neomi gave her last potion to David while they both collected their thoughts for a moment. Or at least David was while Neomi had feinted from the fear of nearly dying.

'It seems the safety measures place on these rulings were placed to defeat anyone not apart of their Order. If I come across one of these again then I'll have to bring her along as well.'

David had begun to rest to naturally recover his HP and stamina but soon found a familiar smell in the rubble of the Golem Guardian.

'It didn't have a Golem Core at all but a Dragon King's heart?!'

No it all made sense to David as he looked upon a beating heart that looked to be made of Paper and ink.

[You have found the Knowledgeable Heart of Magic]

'So the reason I couldn't find a Golem core was because this was is core. That's a little cheating if anything but it all worked out in the end. Time to dig in!'

Unlike the other hearts David could only taste oil and grease mixed with steak.

But he ate it all regardless and was not disappointed with its gift.

[you have consumed the Knowledgeable Heart of Magic]

[Mana reserves have Tripled]

[Mana Recovery is increased by 50%]

[You have learned Dragon Spellshot]

David had been debating wether or not to invest all of his free stat points into his intelligence to increase his Mana Reserves but now he could divide them evenly.

[Tiamat-Lv.97][Global Ranking:#1,976,981]

[Class: Dragon Kings Decsendant]

[Health:2,187/3,100(+100)]

[Mana:1,238/2,095(+100)]

[Stamina:1,200/1,200(+100)]

[Strength:450(+100)]

[Agility:320(+100)]

[Dexerity:345(+100)]

[Intelligence:365(+100)]

Upon looking at his new stats David was quite excited about his first Advancement as he would most certainly grow even stronger then anyone could predict.

Meanwhile Jim how had just woken up from a barrage of texts was fuming with both anger and frustration.

'How good is this kid's luck to get the Knowledgeable Heart of Magic already!? Most of the Dragon King's Decsendants skills are supposed to be used sparingly because of the ridiculous amount of Mana they consume. Now that is no longer an issue at all!'

Jim was the only one who knew the value of each individual Heart of the Dragon King so only he could experience such pain in the failure of his plan for the holder of the Dragon King's Descendant.

Even most recovery stats and abilities paled in comparison to the Knowledgeable Heart of Magic. But what was more frightening was the skill that came along with it as both David and Jim looked at it at the same time.

[(Class-Skill)Dragon Spellshot Lv.1]

[A Dragon is wise if not strong and well tuned to the art of Magic]

[Cast a Dragon Spellshot to cause Magical Damage while completely ignoring Magical Defences and Nullification]

[Cooldown: 10 Seconds]

[Mana Cost: 500 Mana]

David couldn't believe his eyes as he read the skill hundreds of times over.

A normal Mage could learn Spellshot which was the most basic and easiest skill to learn but David knew they were nothing like the Dragon Spellshot he possessed.

'This ignores Magic defence's and Nullification spells?!'

Most known bosses had very high Magical defence's but now such things meant nothing to David.

No one could expect a skill like this in their wildest dreams. This was the perfect ace up his sleeve to have.

But now there was only last thing to do with the remaining hours of his capsule session.

"Hey… hey Neomi… WAKE UP!"

Neomi immediately sprang up like she had realized she was late to work before David once again sat on her head while a staircase downwards appeared.

"We still have to explore these ruins before anyone else can so get moving."

"Ok Mr.Chicken."

It was better for Neomi to lead the way as David knew he could be targeted again. Neomi was his personal Shield without her even knowing.
