[CH200+ Continued] Dungeon Diver: Stealing A Monster's Power

Chapter 328

I stand back with Ember to watch my body double attempt to complete the 30 Demonic Energy attacks and 30 Mana-based attacks in just 60 seconds.

With a minute on the clock, I watch the small streams of dark black Demonic Energy as well as pure pink mana both collide to erupt into sparks against a nearby tree. Just fractions of a unit are used in each projectile, and a few dozen MP at most per mana-based attack.

The swaps back and forth are almost seamless. From an outside perspective, it almost looks as if the two attacks are being thrown simultaneously. But of course, at closer inspection, I can tell there is a switch being made every second.

The gold and white lights engulf my double expanding from the arms and chest until it takes over entirely.

[You have Died]

The memories of the test fill my mind, and I smirk while turning to Ember.

"66 swaps, that was 33 attacks from each hand. I passed."

Ember nods slowly.

"Very good, now we'll move onto the next portion of training; concentrating your energy to a single portion of the body. Once this is mastered, you'll be able to launch multiple attacks without even having to switch. Both Mana and Demonic Energy will be able to be wielded at once. This shouldn't take more than 3 hours at your rate of improvement, with enough practice it'll click."

I acknowledge this claim and make another body double before leaving the dungeon to go farm the other quests.

After paying a guard and asking around I enter a lv100-150 Dungeon and a level 300-350 dungeon to make Dungeon Walker points on both of them and begin my hunting. One of them is a Giant Rat Dungeon, while the other one is a Steel Tortoise Dungeon.

The Rat Dungeon is similar to the other old rat dungeons I've been in before. With rolling hills of dark-colored dirt, and eerie grey skies above, it feels very familiar. The scratching sounds of dozens of claws come over the hills in packs and the horrific odor comes along with it too.

In the past, I'd be disgusted, but right now it just sounds and smells like money to me.

With a grin across my face, I begin obliterating packs of rats with advanced fire magic slashes while air-stepping and teleporting across the dungeon.

The Mana control absorption is incredibly low, but the pure crystals they leave behind I collect to put in my storage for an emergency later. Having extra mana in my storage leftover for potential fights outside of the mana-rich dungeons is a smart thing to stock up on while I have the chance. Each group of rats drops 1-2 claws on average. It will be a slow grind, but a profitable one.

After creating a few body doubles to send back to Ember and collecting a few hundred rat claws, I decide to take a breather and test out the Tortoise Dungeon too.

The landscape inside is very different than any dungeons I've been to before. The ground consists of chalky red-colored dirt and similarly crimson-colored shrubbery growing from it. Above these, there are short but thick trees every few dozen meters that go on as far as the eye can see.
