“Anyway, I need to level up if I really want to face the future problem. I should probably move solo. Although risks are greater, the return is even higher. But first, where is that Mega-Dungeon?”

Brian looked at his menu and tried to find the news about Mega-Dungeon. On the sideline, there was a News Section. He clicked on it and dozens of different screen panels appeared in front of him. The different panels had different headlines. He skipped other panels and searched for the Mega-Dungeon.

It wasn’t hard to find it since it was the hottest topic. It was on the top. He clicked it and a new panel appeared with lots of different images and a small map on it.

ɴ(O)ᴠᴇʟ He clicked on the map and a new option appeared.

[Would you like to install the Map?]

[Yes] [No]

Brian quickly clicked on yes and the next moment a new panel appeared. It was a Map of this forest.

‘Well, I guess having a map wouldn’t be a problem. But.’

Brian quickly stared at the new status at the side.

[God’s Coin- 267]

‘It costs me twenty coins just to download the map. Anyway, now that I have the map, I need to find the Mega-Dungeon. If I remember correctly, the head designed this kind of dungeon with the purpose of keeping all of the monsters at a single dungeon with levels.’

‘As a level five, I should be able to earn a lot of XP through this dungeon.’ Brian closed other panels and focused solely on the map. The map showed the entire forest and lots of different icons that represented something.

There was a castle icon that represented the Mega-Dungeon. Then, there was a green circle that represented the town. There were other icons but his eyes were solely focused on the Mega-Dungeon.

‘It’s on the far south of this forest. It shouldn’t take me more than ten minutes to reach there’

Brian turned to the south and started running. His foot movement was quite fast but it wasn’t his maximum running speed.

After twelve minutes he finally reached in front of the castle just as he predicted. The castle was massive and there were lots of people around. He didn’t find anyone he knew.

So, he simply walked near the gate of the castle. The gate was made out of wood and it was quite big as well. As he approached the gate, a panel appeared in front of him.

[Solo] [Party]_{-ɴ(0)ᴠᴇʟ.}

Brian clicked on solo then another panel appeared in front of him.

[Player Lv.5 can start from the Third Floor.]

[Would you like to start from the Third Floor?]

[Yes] [No]

Brian clicked on no and the next moment, his figure disintegrate into blue light and appeared inside the castle. As he appeared, he looked around and saw a finely crafted room.

There was nothing inside but the designs of the walls were unique with strange textures on them. It was a triangle but triangles stacked upon each other to fill the room completely

‘I guess this isn’t going to be that easy.’

Brian clenched his fists as he looked around him. But, a few seconds later, blue illuminated in front of him, and the particles of the blue light formed five big lizards. They were nearly a meter long and half a meter tall.

Roar!

As soon as they saw Brian, they opened their mouths and five powerful streams of fire dashed toward them. Brian quickly retreated dozens of meters away.

As he retreated, he realized that the ground was getting hot just from their fire alone.

‘Tch! Did they make these lizards overpowered?’ Brian clicked his tongue and dodged to the side. The lizards didn’t follow his movement and kept spraying their flames straight.

‘So, they can only attack straight huh!’ _{ɴ(O)ᴠᴇʟ}

Brian immediately rushed towards the side. From the side, he rushed towards those lizards. Until he reached nearly two meters near them, nothing happened. But just when he stepped on that radar, they instantly turned their heads as the flame followed.

‘Damn!’

Brian knew fighting those flames head-on wouldn’t be a good choice. He jumped up in the air as their heads returned back to their original positions. Brian retreated as soon as he landed on the ground and thought.

‘It seems this is made for a group rather than a solo. But still, I can do it.’

Brian quickly released his mana into his hands and focused on one of the lizards. Among five, the one he could hit was the one in front of him and the others were next to him.

‘Wait, if I go back, would they attack me?’ Brian kept his mana in check for a moment and thought. He dashed behind them and just when he reached there, those lizards stopped their flames and instantly turned around.

Seeing this, Brian immediately used Shadow Escape and dashed back to the side.

‘Well, I hope it will work. Thankfully, I brought the sword this time.’

‘This is just a First Floor. I shouldn’t use my full powers.’ Brian said to himself and released his magic. His physical strength boosted to another level and the remaining mana condensed at his blade.

Whoosh!

Splash!

The next moment, he dashed towards them and sliced their heads with his sword before all of them could turn their heads completely. Because they were already facing back, before the last one could turn around completely, its head was already on the ground.

“Status!”

As soon as he leveled up, his HP and MP recovered but not his stamina. Thankfully, he hadn’t spent a lot of stamina on the first floor but the curse is still there.

“Use Ten SP in Magic and Ten SP in Intelligence!” Brian changed the stats and increased intelligence as well as magic.

‘Now, my mana will recover at thirty seconds per mana and my control over magic has certainly increased. Now, I can try that second move that I planned.’

Brian thought to himself as he clicked on the panel that appeared in front of him.

[Floor One has been cleared]

[Would you like to enter Floor Two?]

[Yes] [No]

After clicking yes, his body disappeared from floor one and appeared on floor two which was no different than before.

After his arrival, his enemies also appeared.

Ten Wolves!

All level five!

Reward- 1000XP, 100 God’s Coins, and four Healing potions.

Brian smirked and took out both of his swords. His mana burst out and condensed on his swords.

Grrr!

Tap! Tap! Tap! Tap!

Seeing the overwhelming mana, those wolves instantly dashed towards him. As they moved, their bodies were covered with the invisible wind. It was blowing too fast and increasing their speed.

“Shadow Escape!”

His body also moved like a shadow and blurred in front of them. He touched the hilt of swords against each other and held them tight. The moment he reached near them, he struck his foot on the ground and lifted himself.

He spun his body and the sword swung with him. The mana condensed in his sword and left the sharp projectile in its previous position as it spun. His body went straight between the wolves while his swords slashed five of them.

Whoosh! Splash! Splash! Splash! Splash! Splash!

Five wolves fell to the ground with their neck being split from their bodies. Not a single part except for the neck was touched by the sword.

“DragonRider97 Sword Art”

“Second Stance- Stealth Dragon Claws!”

This move was something he learned from that bandit. Although he doesn’t have a silence stat, he doesn’t need it. He just needs a perfect precision to strike just like how the bandit stole his girlfriend’s purse.

That’s why even though his swords left sharp mana projectile while spinning, they didn’t strike them.

As soon as five of them fell down, those wolves turned around and roared at Brian. All five of them summoned a powerful wind around them and the wind merged together, forming a massive tornado.

“Tornado huh! Let’s see which one of us has a stronger one.”

Brian smirked and tightly held both of his swords. Although they were level five, they weren’t that strong in his eyes. Not to mention, he was now planning to use one of his devastating attacks.

“Shadow Escape!”

Using this move once again, his body dashed towards the wolves as he spun himself. The mana condensed at his arm boosted his physical strength and slowly he began to conjure wind around him.

“DragonRider97 Sword Art”

“First Stance- Dragon Twister”

Bang!

Two tornados struck each other and the bodies of the dead wolves got blown away!
