Chapter 342 - [Bonus ]Returning To Reality
While it was covered with debris, Adam managed to reach it and began moving away all the rocks that were on top of it.
Grabbing its right arm, it was still alive and Adam couldn't let that happen as he took out his dagger and slashed off its arm, before taking the three rings that were on its right hand and jumping away from the beast.
There was too much debris falling from the ceiling above and it seemed like it was going to be impossible for him to get away, but luckily for Adam, he suddenly heard a notification from the system within his mind.
{The requirements for the completion of Floor 10 have been met and the host has not only eliminated all the Goblin Beasts, but also the Goblin Lord and acquired the three special rings. The host also acquired information that will be very important for the future. Your body will already be overwhelmed when you return to your body after leaving it for so long, and in the weakened and damaged state that you are in, it will be even worse. You have the option of leaving the dungeon in this state, or stopping to recover, which will place less burden on your body in reality} stated the system within his mind.
Hearing that, Adam who was starting to be struck by large pieces of rubble and was struggling to avoid the collapsing ceiling let out a sigh of relief and was glad that the Giant Ant Beasts had managed to surpass his expectations.
Going out of the dungeon was his only option, unless he wanted his Dungeon Form to die, which would make his body's backlash even worse and could even mean that he failed to complete the floor.
However, before he could communicate to the system that he wanted to leave the dungeon, Ava interrupted him.
{Adam, put the rings in your inventory. Are you really stupid enough to leave them out and risk losing them?} shouted Ava within his mind.
Hearing that, Adam realised how stupid it was for him to not have done that before deciding to leave the dungeon, but he was being crushed and covered by more and more rock, so it never crossed his mind.
Placing the three rings, that he held tightly in his hands, in the inventory, Adam communicated to the system to take him out of the dungeon as he suddenly felt his soul be sucked out of his Dungeon Form.
In the real world, over 2 days passed, which meant that Adam had spent almost 5 days within the dungeon.
Each time he would stop to use the Ethereal Recovery Skill, Adam would spend a few hours and time past so quickly and since there was no night or day and his Dungeon Form didn't feel the urge to sleep, he lost track of time.
However, he had a rough idea of how much time had passed and it was the longest he had ever spent in the dungeon and much longer than the system stated was the longest he should spend in the dungeon.
He was worried about what the effects would be on his body, but he didn't think about it too much as he felt his soul be sucked out of the Dungeon Form and back into his body.
Over the past 2 days and a half, Adam's master had been visiting him every few hours to see if he had awakened and if his body was still stable and unharmed, since Adam had already told him that he would be unconscious for a while.
After a day, his master felt that there was something unusual since Adam wouldn't usually sleep for that long and would usually sleep for at most 12 hours and return to his usual training during the day.
Time was but a blur in the lair that they were in, but Adam and his master still had a structure to his training and his master would spend most of his time preparing an inheritance to leave behind for Adam once he had passed.
After a day and a half, Adam's master began to feel worried and he could see small amounts of blood leaking from Adam's eyes, nose and mouth and his body seemed to be slowly decaying.
His master had no idea why, or what was occurring, but he quickly acted and got him out of the gravity training chamber and took him to a healing room that he had set up.
The room had energy gathering arrays along with the perfect environment for one to relax and speed up recovery, but no matter what he tried to do to get Adam to wake up, nothing worked.
After two days, his master was starting to get worried and Adam's condition was getting worse and began streaming Internal Energy into Adam's body, hoping that it would reduce the amount of strain his body was in.
However, Adam's body was rejecting all kinds of energy and any kind of external assistance, seemingly because his consciousness wasn't within his body and his body was instinctively very defensive towards external entities.
Adam's lifeless body continued to grow worse and worse and it was only after 2 and a half days did Adam open his eyes, but with it, came loud screams of pain.
It felt as though his entire body had all been stabbed and beaten at the same time and the pain was excruciating, while his mind was also aching heavily.
His master who had been sat beside him and waiting for him to regain consciousness was shocked by Adam who was writhing in pain and screaming like a mad man.
He didn't know what to do or what was happened, so struck the back of Adam's neck, which caused him to lose consciousness and began trying to aid his body and heal it while Adam was unconscious.
However, when he tried to do so, he was very shocked by what he saw.
