While Others Cultivate, I LVL UP In My Sleep Using The Dungeon System

Adam spent the entire 24 hours he had within the dungeon hunting python beasts that seemed to be endless and after completing a full cycle of the entire rain forest, Adam had finally completed the stage and had strengthened himself massively.

He could take on 4 pythons in a row with his method of attacking, then would stop for a few minutes to half an hour to recover his MP before moving on to more python beasts.

Over the entire time, he had taken out 76 python beasts, which all required him to use two summons simultaneously.

Adam knew that without the Collector Skill it would have an extremely difficult battle with each of the Wood Python beasts, but with the assistance of two summons, he gained the advantage in numbers and didn't need to get in harm's way.

Yet from the 76 beasts, he had only gained 7 Scale Vambraces altogether and had gained a few useless fangs and scale scraps.

His luck seemed to be lowering and Adam knew that it was unrealistic to gain valuable items from each beast he faced and the drop rate would continue to fall as he scaled more and more floors.

However, overall to Adam none of the items were the most valuable thing he gained and it was the Pythonidae Summon.

Pythonidae Summon

HP: 250

Strength: 23

Speed: 17

Intelligence: 19

Despite not using his Pythonidae Summon against the 75 python beasts he had taken out, Adam still knew how useful and powerful it would be to him in the future just by looking at its stats and experiencing battles against the wood pythons.

While resting against a tree, Adam heard a sudden notification from the system that he wasn't expecting.

{Ding, 24 hours have passed within the dungeon and 12 hours in reality. The host will be taken out of the dungeon within 30 seconds} announced the system.

Adam was shocked by how quickly 24 hours had gone and throughout he was enjoying the gratification and satisfaction of hunting and watching his gains rising as he did so.

[Status]

Looking at his status, with the enhancing effects of his two vambraces and his blade, Adam had a satisfied expression seeing that he had almost increased an LVL in a single night.

During his hunting, Adam's daggers had shattered after their durability ran out and had resorted to using his E Rank Wolf Sabre.

But at the same time, he realised how hard it was becoming to increase his LVL and that it wouldn't be as easy as he had hoped to complete an entire floor within a night.

However, Adam knew thinking to himself negatively would only waste time and energy and he wouldn't gain anything from it.

Looking at his gold, he saw that he had gained 8360 gold from the 76 beasts that were all at LVL 11, yet looking at his system points, he had only gained 152 system points which wasn't as much as he had expected.

"Why did I only gain 76 system poi..." asked Adam before being interrupted by being sucked away and back into his body.

SWOOSH

After the weird sensation of being sucked into another space subsided, Adam opened his eyes and instantly felt slight pain in his back from sleeping in an uncomfortable position for 12 hours.

Stretching his body, Adam asked his question again, slightly disappointed at the low amount of system points that he gained.

"Why did I only gain 152 system points despite defeated 76 beasts that were all LVL 11," asked Adam.

{From now onwards the host will gain a single system point for defeating a being at the same LVL as the host, upon entry of the floor, and would gain an additional point for each LVL that the defeated opponent is higher than the host while entering. For example, if the host was to defeat an LVL 15 being at the host's current LVL, the host would gain 5 system points, not 15} explained the system.

Adam couldn't help but shake his head in disappointment, but at the same time wasn't upset as he knew that nothing came easy in life.

"It seems as though the system is getting harder from now onwards. But I will face everything that the system throws at me and will save my Aunt while becoming stronger" declared Adam positively.

He was no longer only hunting in the Dungeons to save his aunt, gain wealth and gain enough strength to protect himself, but to also relieve his Bloodlust and relieve his thirst for power.

The insatiable desire for more power had been awoken in Adam who became enthralled in the satisfaction of his gaining strength, and started to care less and less about life in reality and wanted to return to the dungeon, knowing that he didn't have much to do anyway.

Looking around the room he was in, he was suddenly reminded what had happened last night and how he had abruptly left Cole to enter the dungeon.

"I guess I do have a life in reality now as well" mumbled Adam remembering his heartfelt reunion with Cole and the warmth he felt while being around his friends.

{Is it a bad time to give the host an announcement} asked the system.

[He, why are you asking, normally you just blurt out your announcements without a care in the world] scoffed Adam who was surprised and wary of the system's sudden change in attitude.

{Well then, I just thought it was the right time to inform the host that from now on, each percentage of mastery will require much more system points than how the previous price was and the host's mastery discount has run out} informed him the system with a hint of mockery behind the monotone and robotic voice.

[Damn you system, why didn't you tell me about the discount] scolded Adam angrily.

{The system can provide the host opportunities, but even after the increased intelligence stat, the system cannot get rid of the host's stupidity} answered the system ridiculing Adam.

Adam began to scream and curse at the system within his mind, but it was to no avail as the system ignored him and allowed him to seeth in annoyance alone.

Calming down, Adam fixed his hair, tying it back into a small ponytail that had become messy and washed his face in the bathroom, conjoined to the guest room he was within.

"Time to avoid any questions and try not to make the atmosphere awkward" mumbled Adam to himself with a wry smile as he exited the guest room.
