"Let's hope this is an infinite dungeon…." I mumbled as I stood up. We ended up taking a break while I fed on the girls. I still miss my refreshing Iena… Her blood is still the best, while Sei's tastes salty….
"Alright, let's move on to the next floor." The girls nodded, and we slowly began making our way down to the sixth floor. When we reached the plant life that made up the first five floors were replaced with a rocky landscape. I did not even need to ask what kind of monsters were on this floor since I could see rock golems and elementals all over the place. At least this place made things easier to level up with.
The previous floor boss didn't give us much. We got two skill stones for our trouble which I gave to Adel and Sei. This was after a fair roll to see who got them. I did not want anyone to think I was being biased about loot. So I had everyone play rock, paper, scissors to determine who would be the first to get new skills.
Basically, the next boss or when another skill stone drops, Adel and Sei will be left out while the rest of us battle it out. And once everyone has gotten one, we will just keep the same rotation. I already planned to go last, so I planned to make sure I did not win at all. It was not easy for them to get skills, while for me, it was pretty simple. I might not be able to buy normal skills, but I can buy other skills, which reminds me I have not bought any in a long time. I have over 1341 skill points, so I might go ahead and spend some later on.
But for now, the task ahead was power leveling once again! This time I just had the girls follow me as I killed everything in my path. One thing after the other, I killed, killed, killed. I did not leave a single monster alive! I was taking out my frustrations from the stupid mushroom level.
I do wonder how everyone else is doing, though. I mean, those in Diablo and Iena's team might be in for a bit of trouble. But then again, if those two can somehow figure out a different method like blowing up the entire room or something, then maybe, just maybe, they will not need to resort to the stabby stabby routine that hurts so much.
As for my slimes…. I do hope they will be okay. I do not think the mimic mushroom will be effective on them since they are slimes. Which means I think they can probably defeat it with ease. This thought kinda makes me wish I had brought a few with me, but I sent them out on their own. I do hope they all come back safely. My precious little balls of jelly!
While they have multiplied by many times, I have a feeling once they finish their training, they will be my Empire's most feared army. I do not plan to put them away anymore. Since they have all gained a bit of sentience, I plan to put them to work and reward them with some good stuff.
After everything that happened in such a short time, I think after all my preparations and growing stronger, I will be able to handle Azengrade, at least by myself. His flunkies I would not need to worry too much about his until they reached a super high level. But if we continue on this road, we are on now, we may be able to level quickly enough.
At least my group will not have too many problems. If I need to run teams myself, I can do that as well since my mana is infinite and will not run out anytime soon. I already had the girls tethered to it so they could cast spells at will. I just hope my too slackers are enjoying their free ride. Well… Grace is probably working since all she does is work, but that father in law of mine is another story.
Hopefully, he will not laze about too much while standing in for me. He knows my plans and should be able to sign off on things. I do have Anne helping him when she is free. I have been thinking that it might be a good idea to take a visit to Diablo's realm and try to persuade the other demon kings to come to my aid. But what I wonder is, if there are demon summons, are there any angel summons? There probably is, but it would require gaining the skill for it.
While lost in thought, we reached the tenth floor in a flash. This just goes to show how much easier it is to kill nonplant monsters. But I do hope this boss will be much easier.
[Boss: Mutated Rock Golem]
[Level 2341]
[Health 50000000/50000000]
[Mana 10000/100000]
"Oh? Looks like I will get a good chunk of experience this time, too, but….. Mutated…." The mutated, in its name, bothered me. The last boss had such a strange quirk about it that it made it hard to understand how to defeat. So I do hope this one is slightly different. If we all suddenly grow rocks on our heads, I will cry. I mean it. I will start crying here and now.
"Faith, what should we do?" Adel asked.
"Well… we are in for a fight no matter what because this thing's health is high as well as it's level. And when I say it is high, I mean really high. It has fifty million health. But only one hundred thousand mana. So I think it is more of a physical attack boss with high defense. We will need to work out a method to bypass its defense if we wish to kill it." I explained.
"We will follow your commands." Sei seemed ready to fight. Everyone else nodded as well. As team leader, I guess I can not let them down now, can I?
