Chapter 237

Since it was too impractical to move those steel containers, Leon used all the mana liquid in those to defeat the elemental golems and practice Haste. He only used the purple crystal to see the other world after twelve hours, Darya stayed behind because she was tired.

Still, there wasn't much to see on the other side. Leon got attacked by several mystical golems, but he managed to escape from them flying to the sky. If Leon had to describe that world, he would use the word Pandemonium. In one direction, he couldn't see anything, but ice, on the other only volcanoes and magma. On the different directions, he saw a wasteland and then a seemingly endless mountain range where rain clouds were constantly letting lightning bolts hit the ground. It was a weird world with weird ecosystems...

Leon managed to return using Mana Concealment. The golems didn't have eyes. So thanks to that skill, they couldn't notice Leon... like many other monsters, they used their target's mana to find them.

���Another failure..." Leon sighed.

On the opposite side of the boss room, Darya was sleeping without a care in the world... another boss would appear in twelve hours, but it looked like that didn't concern her. Although she was short, Leon decided to let her sleep instead of carrying her outside the dungeon. The poison mist didn't enter dungeons, so it was a pretty good place to rest.

Although Leon also felt like it was a good moment to rest, he decided to keep an eye on things and learn his next spell. Besides, every ten minutes, six new golems would appear, so he would have to kill them. Although previously, he only had enough mana to beat five, with his steel staff, he could keep fighting them for one hour without having to use mana potions.

"I wonder why that VII represents… is the quality of the weapon or the level?"

It was evident that it was important information, but Leon had no idea what that means... Anyway, he would learn it later. So, Leon forgot about that, and before Darya finally woke up, he learned a new spell.

Congratulations! You have learned the skill: Magma Bullet.

Cost: 30 mana per second

You obtained 01 status points.

"Did you find anything on the other side?" Darya asked.

"I found a weird ecosystem..." Leon said. "You should rest while you can, we will fight against the boss again because I want to make a shield and obtain the skills to absorb spells."

"Do you think that will be useful?" Darya frowned. "You wanted to face stronger monsters to grow stronger, right? Against stronger opponents, a shield like that won't help you all that much."

"Why do you think so?" Leon asked.

"Because those passive skills that can let you absorb spells, only work on spells that have a lower level than the skill," Darya explained.

"I see... so if my shield has Magma Absorption Lv 50, it can't absorb magma spells that are stronger than that." Leon nodded.

"That is right." Darya nodded.

In the end, it was a real waste of time. If Leon couldn't level up those skills and the opponents would only grow stronger, it was useless. After a long sigh, Leon decided to move toward other dungeons. The magic items he creates would be useful, but if he creates a lot of them, he could grow over-dependent of them. If something happens and he loses those items, he would be in trouble.

"I wish there was a dragons' dungeon in this world..." Leon sighed again. "I'm already missing their meat, and the extra status points those could give me."

"I heard that we had one," Darya said. "But the dungeon became inactive when the harvesters appeared."

"What about the purple crystal?" Leon asked.

"The crystal disappeared... that was why it was considered inactive," Darya explained.

In the end, there was no easy way to obtain status points. However, Leon had an idea. If he could understand the logic behind Area of Effect spells, he could learn several of them quite quickly, and by using them against several targets, Leon would be able to level up them quite fast. Thus, granting him status points. Although Leon had to learn spells like Steel Arrow, Magma Arrow, Magma Punch, and others… he decided to learn the Area of Effect spells first because the nearest dungeon didn't have strong monsters but had a lot of monsters.

"So, this time, are we going to fight the Bloody Wasps?" Darya frowned. "I can't imagine ourselves getting that stronger fighting against that type of enemy."

"It is the nearest dungeon, and this is also a good opportunity for us to learn Area of Effect spells," Leon explained. "Besides, even if the enemies don't look like that they can pose a challenge, I still have to check their worlds."

"I can understand that…If I were in your position, I would do the same." Darya said. "In fact, I would use the dungeons of the other worlds to look for the information you want… Instead of trying to obtain the power to defeat a harvester or at least torture them for answers."

Truth to be told, Leon didn't want to face those enemies too. He had never seen them, but Leon could imagine their powers. Considering that mana can increase the lifespan of everyone... the amount of power a sentient being could obtain after fighting and training for thousands of years would be bone-chilling just to think about it.

Even Leon wanted that kind of power because, with that, he would be able to protect his family, his friends, his world... However, before obtaining that, he had to get the knowledge that also comes alongside with power. Leon didn't find that knowledge in the city above, and the chances of him finding in other worlds were also small. But he was sure. He would obtain that knowledge from the harvester... They were invaders, after all.
