Chapter 98 The Spidyl nest
From beginning to end, the monster could not even see the face of the one who attacked it.
Kain looked at the corpse that was charred black by both fire and lightning, his serious eyes gradually relaxing.
He realized that the enemy was approaching.
Although the sound of footsteps rustling through Spidyl's foliage could easily be mistaken for the wind, Kain could distinguish it based on the frequency of the sound.
The sound of the wind would not have a fixed frequency, and would only last for a short period of time. However, Spidyl's footsteps were different, they were very even and of course continuous, it would be strange if Kain didn't notice.

Kain really wanted to thank this monster, it really was a money pick up while walking.
Basically without much consideration, the 3 skill points just earned were immediately added to [Fire Bullet].
[Fire Bullet level Max]. 10/10 (+3)
Seeing the number symbol behind the magic skill line disappear, Kain had a bit of confidence, after all, his direct attack ability was no longer a weakness.
A single [Fire Bullet level 9] was enough to make even a monster like Spidyl, who was considered quite strong on the first floor of the Dungeon, faint. The power of [Fire Bullet level Max] was even more unimaginable.
So, the prey on the first floor could no longer satisfy Kain.
…
The next day, which was also the fifth day of the two-month period.
Kain officially entered the guardian monster's room.
The guardian monster he encountered was actually a Zombie.
Of course, it wasn't a normal Zombie, but a Zombie that had been severely mutated.
Its body seemed to be made up of three tall, skinny Zombies, with six arms and three heads, only two legs remaining intact.
As soon as Kain entered the room, the monster charged madly towards Kain.
Kain was not fazed at all, because with just a gentle wave of his hand, lightning struck down from the sky violently, paralyzing the monster's body for a brief moment. But that wasn't all, a ball of lightning flew out from Kain's palm, hitting the monster's chest, causing it to collapse on the spot. Finally, three fireballs accurately shot towards the Zombie's three heads, instantly ending the life of this pitiful monster.
The entire time from when the monster started moving until it fell dead was less than half a minute, and Kain didn't even bother to move.
"It's magic…"
Kain sighed, this kind of overwhelming power, this posture that can defeat enemies while still standing still,... it's truly an addictive substance. No wonder there are quite a few arrogant Magus, who don't care about others, their eyes always set high up in the sky to look down.
The absolute power that magic brings is truly a curse, and can corrupt the minds of Magus that few can resist.
Stopping his thoughts, Kain checked the system. The Zombie just now was quite generous, providing Kain with four skill points.
[Fire Navigation level 5] 4/8 (+4)
Like before, a passage opened automatically, leading Kain to the next floor.
This time, what Kain saw was no longer a forest of tall trees, but a "forest" nonetheless.
A Spidyl Forest!
The place where Kain appeared was a circular cave, about ten meters in diameter. And swarming on the walls, and even on the ceiling, were Spidyls one by one. Their thorny legs made clicking sounds, their six bloodshot eyes seemed to glow in the darkness, looking extremely dangerous and creepy.
It was as if Kain had wandered into a spider's nest.
Faced with a scene that would have terrified even an adult with a steadfast mind, Kain not only was not afraid, but secretly felt fortunate.
Because... the party he was waiting for came sooner than he expected.
The space around Kain suddenly erupted with lightning, instantly causing the nearest Spidyls to be attacked.
This is another use of [Thunder Summon].
[Thunder Summon] is a magic skill that allows you to forcibly draw lightning, or more precisely, invisible electric bolts in space, thereby causing it to explode as a natural phenomenon.
The higher the proficiency of the magic skill, the greater the amount of lightning that Magus can attract, and the natural power will also be greater.
However, the point to emphasize here is that [Thunder Summon] can be performed anywhere, not necessarily in high places, as long as you can control it well.
The reason why [Thunder Summon] always chooses high places as its starting point is for safety and coverage reasons.
And with [Thunder Navigation], he obviously had the qualifications to do so.
But Kain's attack was not over yet.
This time it's about [Thunder Bullet].
[Thunder Bullet] is a magic skill that allows you to attract lightning and condense it into a sphere, which will then be released towards the enemy and explode like a bomb.
Both draw lightning from space, the difference between [Thunder Bullet] and [Thunder Summon] is that [Thunder Bullet] uses a much smaller amount of lightning than [Thunder Summon]. This magic skill focuses more on compressing power into a small space and exploding it onto a single target.
This results in [Thunder Bullet] not needing too much lightning to be effective. Therefore, leveling up [Thunder Bullet] does not mean you attract more lightning, but rather the amount of lightning you compress becomes denser.
So, what if you use the lightning generated by [Thunder Summon] to condense [Thunder Bullet]?
It must be noted that condensing [Thunder Bullet] requires much less lightning not only because of efficiency, but also because this action can lead to an on-the-spot explosion if not done carefully.
Therefore, if you use the lightning created from [Thunder Summon] to condense into [Thunder Bullet], the result will be disastrous if you don't have excellent control
