211 Chapter 210
Leon had a hard time finding a dungeon amidst that destroyed city, since there wasn't much light and the mist was thick, he only saw one after looking for three days straight. Fortunately, while Leon was learning Magma Spear, he also learned how to multitask as well, and thanks to it, his arsenal increased.

Regardless, Leon only found the dungeon because he heard something weird below him. When he approached, thanks to Mana Dominion, he felt the presence of something moving. That thing had a lot of mana, but it was quite small, and its shape was weird as well. Approaching without knowing his enemy was dangerous, so Leon used a gust of wind to disperse the mist for a while and then used a fireball to illuminate the ground, and then he saw it. A fifty centimeters long, grey spider.
"What the…" Leon frowned.
The size alone was weird, but the color was even weirder. Still, the spider foolishly jumped to attack Leon's fireball. However, instead of burning itself, the damn thing absorbed the fire in an instant. Thanks to that, he saw clearly what that thing was.
" A mechanical spider… no wonder its presence it's so weird."
It was a robot in the shape of a spider, it was weird, but Leon attacked the thing anyway. But much to Leon's surprise, the mechanical spider dodged Leon's Ice Bullet with ease…
"It can move pretty fast despite being a robot and even under the effects of powerful gravity… I guess this is the type of monster Hammath mentioned that couldn't be eaten."
It was astonishing, but Leon confirmed that after using the gravity ring to slow down the spider and using several Ice Bullets to destroy it. After noticing the mana of the robot had dispersed, Leon used the telekinesis ring to grab the robot.
"Wow… it's very heavy. Despite its size, it is as heavy as my steel spears… this metal… it looks like it isn't the same material the choppers William received from that lizards. Its legs are razor sharp… this thing can't use magic, but its legs can easily cut a human in half."
It was weird considering that thing was using mana to move, but it even had a circuit board. However, Leon could barely see the circuits. Those were so small that it was kind of hard to believe that the hands of a sentient being had built those… most likely, it had been created by another robot. Soon, Leon found the cave where those mechanical spiders were coming from…
"So the monsters I will see if I reach the other world will be only robots? Things were getting crazier…"
Leon recalled that he wanted to try to help Sarah and replicate that weird metal, but he didn't have time to do so. He also recalled that he didn't have many difficulties destroying the blades of those choppers… so the metal itself wasn't the source of the robot's durability, it was the same inside them, Leon confirmed that after hitting the mechanical spiders that were leaving the dungeon.
"Electric attacks would be the best weapon against them… but I only have lightning… I guess it's time to learn the basic electric spells."
Although his spells added with gravity ring were enough to destroy the mechanical spiders, Leon had to use a lot of mana. As someone who wanted to be efficient in everything he does, Leon couldn't keep doing that forever. Besides, electric attacks had a fascinating effect, they could paralyze the targets as long as the projectile is strong enough, and in enemy territory, Leon needed such a weapon.
"Come to think of it… if the dungeons evolved, did the shop evolved too?"
Leon had a stupid amount of coins, and he would be silly in not using them to speed up his progress. So, he decided to check the shop. Unfortunately, once he got too close, several mechanical spiders left the dungeon to attack him. The damn things couldn't fly, by they could jump at a fearsome speed.
"Let's see how those little bastards handle water…"
Leon created a pool of water and used it to block the entrance of the dungeon. Once the mechanical spiders entered the water, they didn't break as Leon had expected… Well, that was alien technology, so it was only obvious that those robots were waterproof. Still, they lost their mobility, and Leon could control them somewhat since the whole water was under his control. Damaging them was impossible, but Leon used that opportunity to access the dungeon shop.
Unlike the things on the Earth, the shop didn't change all that much every second… it looked like the people of Miebos decided to ignore the monsters that were coming from the dungeons and focused only on the harvesters. Still, the variety of things Leon could buy there was phenomenal. Leon could even buy tomes that would teach him Earth Manipulation and the like… he even found a railgun being sold there. The price was ten million coins… it was stupid, but it could be bought.
Unfortunately, the only weapons available weren't much better than his current weapons. Even the accessories were leagues behind the ones Leon gave to his friends. That was a letdown, but in the end, Leon was fine with that. It wasn't a good idea to rely too much on powerful weapons. A powerful weapon wouldn't bring him back home. He needed to increase his strength for that to happen.
