Chapter 65: Chapter 65: Meet the Skeleton Centipede Again

[Enhancement Body level 7] 13/17 (+6)Having dealt with the first group of monsters, Kain turned to Mera and asked.

"Need a break?"

"Who do you think I am? Keep going, I haven't broken a sweat yet."

Mera replied with confidence.

Compared to before, she admitted that she had become much stronger than before, all thanks to the real combat experience in the Dungeon.

Kain wasted no time, immediately orienting himself and continuing on.

Compared to the right turn, the Skeleton Road was not as winding. The only difficulty was the relatively dense number of monsters.

After finishing off another group of Skeletons, Kain mentally calculated the passing time and felt extremely satisfied.

At this rate, they could definitely reach the guardian monster today.

Kain and Mera seemed unstoppable, charging deeper into the depths. Halfway there, Mera began to show signs of fatigue, so Kain suggested a break.

"I told you I'm fine."

"I know, but I'm tired and want to rest, would you mind?"

"Fine."

Mera knew very well that Kain was not tired yet, but since he deliberately said that, how could she refuse?

During the time they sat and talked, Kain told Mera about something called the "Skeleton Centipede".

In terms of difficulty to destroy, this thing is completely comparable to Roc. In terms of danger, it is even more dangerous than Roc.

A relatively difficult enemy.

Even Myra's use of [Fire Magic] at that time could not completely destroy the monster's skull, let alone the bone protecting its heart which was the most sturdy and solid.

"So how do you beat that stuff?"

Hearing that, Mera also asked curiously.

"Even though I said taking this thing down was as difficult as taking down a Roc, there were still certain differences between the two."

"Unlike the Roc, the Skeleton Centipede was hollow on the inside, so I timed it until the centipede stretched out its entire body, then I aimed the arrow through the hole in its face and straight for the heart."

Mera didn't know how to describe it, this wasn't how she thought it would be at all.

After recovering their strength, the two continued moving forward.

Group after group of Skeletons fell on their path. But Kain did not encounter any Skeleton Centipedes, only Skeletons that were stronger than normal due to being covered with more bones.

This made Kain become wary, and many questions arose in his mind.

But regardless, the absence of a monster like the Skeleton Centipede allowed Kain and Mera to get through this Dungeon with almost no trouble.

[Level]: 40

-[Enhancement Magic ★ ]:

+[Enhancement Body level 9] 17/21 (+40)

+[Enhancement Tool level 1] 0/12

There was no pressure to run away, nor any time pressure, Kain leisurely earned 40 skill points in less than a day.

If it weren't for the skeletons occasionally gathering together, preventing Kain from being distracted, the number of skill points he earned definitely wouldn't have stopped at 40.

Of course, Mera's help was still the greatest. Without her, it would have taken Kain three times as long to achieve the same effect.

"So this is the guardian monster's room?"

Looking at the large stone door in front of her, Mera's eyes were filled with fighting spirit.

This was actually the first time she personally participated in the process of conquering a Dungeon.

"Ready?"

"Of course I am ready!"

Mera curled her lips and pushed open the stone door with Kain.

As usual, they were led into a long hallway, with the end being the actual room where the guardian monster resided in the center.

However, something surprising, yet within Kain's expectations, appeared.

The guardian monster is the Skeleton Centipede.

"Mera, use the strategy I told you about earlier."

"Huh? But we don't have arrows."

"Not wrong, but we have wind. Use your [Air Magic]."

Kain had just finished speaking when he quickly advanced and began to engage the monster.

Mera also realized that, unlike other magics, [Air Magic] only needed a gap to attack inside with almost all of its power remaining intact.

With a loud clashing sound, Kain's knife tip collided with the Skeleton's skull.

And even though he had upgraded [Enhancement Body] to level 9, Kain still felt pain in his arm, which was enough to understand how tough this monster really was.

Kain dodged the Skeleton's bite, lightning appearing in his free hand.

[Thunder Bullet].

A ball of lightning struck the Skeleton's head, causing it to freeze for a moment, but the monster's rear end was still moving normally. The monster's tail curved up, flipping in the air before stabbing straight at the spot where Kain was standing.

Contrary to the impression it had of a monster with an oversized body, the Skeleton Centipede was surprisingly agile and nimble. Its body could use both its head and tail to attack, and its body was made up of separate parts, making it less susceptible to being paralyzed when subjected to Kain's [Thunder Magic].

Kain had to admit that this was indeed a difficult opponent to deal with if he did not use tricks and just fought purely.

Of course, Kain wasn't that dumb. Searᴄh the nôvelFire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Fighting is fighting, simple or not simple are not a matter. Either way, one side will die.

After several stabs, Kain was able to create a large enough hole in the monster's skull. After completing this, he spoke loudly to Mera who was preparing her magic skill behind him.

"I'm about to lead that thing there!"

"Don't worry about me, just do it!"

Because Mera was prepared.

Kain started leading the monster straight towards Mera, and after an opportune moment, he suddenly jumped to the side while Mera deployed a powerful [Air Bullet].

But Kain's move wasn't over yet, he raised his hand, a prepared [Thunder Bullet] was also shot into that hole. Just in time for [Air Bullet].

Normally, Kain's attack would have had no effect, but he had Mera's [Air Bullet] carry his [Thunder Bullet] into the Skeleton's body.

Wind and lightning are not two opposing elements. In fact, it is quite common for wind to carry lightning along with it.

As Kain said, he had no arrows, but he had the wind.
