Chapter 240

Leon tried to wake up Darya doing that, and he succeeded, but since the Sleep Power had already spread toward that whole area, she could only stay awake for half a second.

"This has to be some kind of joke..." Leon sighed.

As if fighting alone against thousands of monsters wasn't bad enough for Leon, he also had to keep hitting his head against something to cancel the sleep powder's effect.

Bloody Wasp Queen

Health: 1000/1000

Mana: 3000/3300

Stamina: 4000/5000

Active Skills: Reproduction Lv 250, Sleep Powder Lv 40, Sting Lv 60, Blood Sucker Lv 50,

Passive Skills: Rage Lv 20, Fly Lv 100, Mental Leadership Lv 100

It was a bit late to use Appraisal, but Leon did anyway. He already knew the wasps weren't that resilient, but if he had used it a little earlier, Leon and Darya could have thought of a way to cancel that... the ordinary wasps didn't have that skill, so they were caught off guard. Anyway, what was done was done.

"Now, I have to improvise... but that is okay, once I kill the bosses, Darya will wake up... hopefully."

Leon grabbed a few spears he had created beforehand and put his mana in them. He had a few spare spears because he wanted to obtain the Bloody Wasps skills to suck blood and heal himself... he actually didn't want that. But he was hoping for that somehow, he would be able to add that effect to his weapons, and then, the said weapon would heal the more damages it causes. However, even after sealing the spirits of hundreds of wasps, he didn't obtain that effect.

"Let's hope I will obtain that effect using a boss spirit..."

Leon used Fire Tornado to toast all wasps that tried to attack him. Meanwhile, he made his spears chase and attack the boss. It was hard to keep track of them if Leon splits them, so he decided to attack the bosses one by one and pierce them with his spears.

"Come to think of it; I could have turned the wasps into zombies... they are stronger than my skeletons, after all. I didn't try that against the golems because they were inanimate creatures, but I totally forgot to try that in the wasps."

Leon would have lost some time, but he would save some coins... either way, it was too late to think about it. In a short amount of time, Leon's spears killed five wasp queens, but soon that stopped from happening because the queens controlled the ordinary wasps as a meat shield. Although those didn't stop Leon's spears, it made them lose some piercing power. Besides, all their blood and body fluids were decreasing the sharpness of his spears.

"Tch... so annoying. Try to block this, then."

Leon didn't want to spend much of his mana in small fries like the wasp queens, but his objective now was to give a chance to Darya to wake up. So, he shot several Magma Spears. The wasp queens used even more minions to block the magic projectiles, and even though they succeeded in blocking them, things just got even more efficient for Leon, since a single Magma Spear killed hundreds of wasps.

"Hehe, let's see for how long you can keep using that."

Leon's container of mana liquid was becoming empty at an astonishing pace, but at the same pace, tens of thousands of wasps were dying. Sometimes even the bosses would die since the magma would spread and hit everything nearby... even Leon so stored his spears and created a thick ice wall to protect himself and Darya.

It took a while, but Leon managed to kill all wasps. Well, almost. He left one alive, after cutting its wings, and then he sealed its spirit inside a spear.

Steel Spear VI

It grants you the skill, Sting Lv 20, Blood Sucker Lv 10. Strength + 30, Speed + 25.

It was far weaker than Leon had imagined, but the effect was there... every time Leon attacks an enemy, he would recover a small amount of health. The amount of health restored was related to the amount of physical damage Leon causes with that weapon... so, it would only work on small fries since Leon was still weak physically.

"Well, it's better than nothing..."

Since the wasp queens were already dead, Darya wasn't waking up, and his supply of mana liquid was close to its end. Leon decided to hit his magic staff against Darya's head to wake her.

"Ouch! Ouch! What do you think you are doing?!" Darya frowned.

"Punishing you for not helping me," Leon said. "Kill the wasps because soon, my mana supply will end, or you can let me use your supply."

"My head is hurting like hell... I will help." Darya said.

"Sorry, I guess I overdid it." Leon looked away and then healed Darya's forehead.

Seeing how massive and powerful Leon's fire Tornado had become while she was sleeping, Darya decided to fight instead of letting Leon solve everything alone. Without the wasp queens, the remaining wasps didn't pose a threat. In fact, a lot of them died before they could even leave their cocoons.

"Mmm... Area of Effect spells really level up faster, but the consumption of mana is insane."

Unlike they had thought, the number of monsters that were coming from the other world wasn't that big. Only fifteen wasps appeared out of nowhere every ten minutes, so they really only lost some time in that dungeon due to the wasp queens.

For some reason, despite having defeated dozens of thousands of monsters, Leon didn't obtain a single item or tome. His luck increased in the last months, but it looked like luck didn't increase the chances of him obtaining drops... Leon believed that his magic sword was broken due to his low luck. As he had now risen that stat from one to forty-two and still no change. He was at a loss on what was actually wrong.
