Chapter 27 The Upside Down Forest
Chapter 27 The Upside Down Forest
The next morning, those who had passed the first stage of the entrance exam gathered at the same location. The number is still thirty people, meaning no one retreated. Those who know about the Tower of Magus have mentally prepared themselves in advance, and those who do not know cannot run away, because they know this is an opportunity for them to change their lives and they must grasp it tightly.
"Very good."
"I will start now."
While everyone still didn't understand what happened, Toris's eyes flashed a vague light, reflecting in everyone's eyes.
High-class magic skill belongs to the [Spirit Magic] system, [Mind Lull] .
Everyone feels that their mind gradually becomes quiet, all thinking slows down and stops. This caused them to become sleepy and collapse to the ground.
…
[Mind Lull] expired, Kain's thinking gradually regained movement. When he opened his eyes, he discovered he was in a super large and spacious cave. Where there are upside down trees growing on the ceiling of the cave, these trees are so numerous that they even form a forest up there.
Immediately, Kain confirmed that this place was the largest area on the first floor of the Dungeon, the Upside Down Forest.
"Let us cooperate in groups but separate each person from one place? How..."
Kain sighed, it seemed that the current top goal was not to move forward, but to reunite with the two sisters Myra and Mera.
"I hope they're okay…"
Except for monsters, other people in the Dungeon are also elements that can be dangerous for you. The danger is huge on the other hand.
In Dungeons, the rules out there may not be as solid. Killing people here is not uncommon, especially since the Dungeon also has the ability to devour corpses, so killing people here is almost perfect for concealment.
Those Magus teenagers may not be able to handle these things.
Kain began to probe his surroundings. This place does not have complicated paths like a maze, there are only two forests, one above and one below.
At the same time, the density of glowing grass in the Upside Down Forest is not high, making this place always look like a forest near dusk. Contains a creepy and ghostly atmosphere.
With the appearance of this forest, the danger of Slimes has been increased, because their hiding is no longer easily detected.
Kain listened intently to the sound, gently walking through the trees. Occasionally he would climb a tree and look around to see if he could find anything.
After walking for a while, Kain felt the humidity change in the air, manifested by him feeling cooler.
"Is it a Slime?"
Kain slowly backed away, then immediately cast [Thunder Summon].
The lightning condensed above and then fell straight down on the top of the tree, causing the Slimes clinging to the tree to be paralyzed by the thunder and fall simultaneously like rain. Kain raised his hand, the prepared [Thunder Bullet] launched at the stacked Slimes, destroying them all with just one blow.
With [Thunder Bullet level Max], he was able to perform a one-shot operation to kill the monster.
[Level]: 2
[Ability]:
-[Thunder Magic ? ]:
+[Thunder Bullet level Max]
+[Thunder Summon level 3] 0/5 (+)
+[Thunder Navigation level 6] 2/9 (+)
-[Enhancement Magic ? ]:
+[Enhancement Body level 2] 0/9 (+)
+[Enhancement Tool level 1] 0/12 (+)
Kain temporarily maintains the same direction of increasing his power. Add all skill points to [Thunder Navigation] so he can better control the remaining magic skills.
[Thunder Navigation level 6] 4/9
"My recent actions have caused quite a stir, which will likely attract other people around."
"I don't know if this is good or bad."
Meeting Myra and Mera means good things, but meeting other people can only be said to be not his opportunity.
Kain hid nearby, he wanted to see if anyone would come and take a look.
Sure enough, less than ten minutes later, a figure approached the tree where [Thunder Summon] had thundered down, this person was one of the people participating in the challenge.
This person also did not risk getting too close, just standing from afar to watch, proving that this person is quite careful. Looks like he's also a predator.
The two sides continued to struggle for another thirty minutes, until then the other person didn't want to waste any more time and left.
The number of people who can pass the entrance exam is unlimited. That means the contestants participating in the challenge do not need to compete to the point of eliminating each other. At least until they reached the guardian monster's territory.
However, there is nothing wrong with being wary of others.
"From now on I have to limit my use of [Thunder Magic]. It's best to still deal with monsters using physical methods."
But if the movement is not revealed, then how can Myra and Mera be found?
In fact, Kain had already anticipated this situation.
One day ago.
"To be honest… I think the possibility of us being separated when entering the Dungeon is quite high."
"In case we can't make too much noise like shouting loudly to call each other, that would be too stupid. I suggest that we can try our luck."
"Try your luck."
"That's right."
Kain used his finger and drew a circle on the table.
"The possibility of us being placed in the Upside Down Forest is very high. In any case, the supervisor cannot place us in the middle of the first floor of the Dungeon. That would reduce the difficulty of the challenge." ."
"So there will be a lot of trees where we can mark this symbol, which is this circle."
Myra and Mera both tilted their heads in unison, not understanding what effect this symbol had. But Kain wasn't finished speaking yet.
"Imagine this circle is the marked tree if you put it on a flat map. When I want to tell you which way I'm going, I just need to draw a straight line that coincides with the direction I'm moving."
"And the landmark to roughly determine the direction I'm moving is straight from the bottom to the top of the circle. Because this is similar to if you're standing facing the symbol. By comparing the landmark with The straight line I drew, then converted it into reality, you can know the direction I went."
"You two understand?"
