The Salamander had located its target in front of it, it lunged forward at an incredible speed, the red heat beneath the monster's skin still flickering non-stop.
And with a loud bang, a fla erupted from the monster's mouth, instantly burning down the vegetation in its path.
However, Kain was no longer in the sa place.
"Very strong, has a habit of attacking directly, and can use magic at a fairly good level."
"I can deal with this."
Kain moved around to the monster's flank, a [Thunder Bullet] shot out, the monster's tough skin that could withstand even swords beca useless against a lightning attack. And with the biological characteristics of the Salamander monster species, this thing's resistance to paralysis and magic was also not high.
The only problem is that this thing isn't easy to deal with even if [Thunder Magic] can counter it, because of their sowhat special body structure.
Salamanders, aside from their tough skin and regenerative abilities, are physically extrely strong. Beneath the skin of this monster species is a unique musculature arrangent, where the muscles and flesh aren't instead woven together like braided ropes, a form common to most organic creatures.
The Salamander's muscles and flesh were layered and compressed together, making the entire muscle layer of the monster an armor with no dead spots.
According to Kain, he speculated that this was probably a projection from the skinning of the reptiles out there.
To put it simply, those muscle layers are essentially undeveloped skin layers, and they are similar in nature, which is why both of them are so difficult to deal with.
This monster is not really a reptile, it is just based on a reptile and then magnified many tis.
Monster, not animal.
So that ant that even if he managed to paralyze the Salamander, it would still take him quite a bit of effort to completely defeat the monster. So what should Kain do?
Of course, Kain had a counterasure for this.
A deadly weapon, the natural enemy of living creatures.
The Reaper's scythe was bent into a dagger in his hand.
Kain dodged the flas that the Salamander was spitting out, and whenever he found an opportunity, he used both [Enhancent Body] and [Enhancent Tool] to leave a hole in the monster's body. At first it struggled, but after the necrosis spread, the only thing waiting for it was death.
Finally, the monster collapsed with necrosis all over its body. The curse on this weapon was truly extraordinary.
Kain looked at the dagger. A very powerful weapon, but if used improperly, it could do harm to its owner.
Not only that, it cannot be lted or made into new weapons, it can only be warped.
Maybe that's also why this is less popular.
Kain returned his attention to the dagger, he activated the system.
[Level]: 3
[Ability]:
-[Thunder Magic ★] 0/1000 ( ):
[Thunder Bullet level Max]
[Thunder Summon level Max]
[Thunder Navigation level Max]
-[Enhancent Magic ★]:
[Enhancent Body level Max]
[Enhancent Tool level 1] 0/12 ( )
-[Fire Magic ★]
-[Spirit Magic ★]
-[Life Magic ★]
Kain rarely showed hesitation.
On one hand, he wanted to quickly level up [Fire Magic] to improve his own attack power.
On the other hand, he also wanted to level up [Spirit Magic], which was especially useful when going deep into situations like this and when encountering monsters that could hide.
On the other hand, there was no need to explain how the magic skill [Heal] of [Life Magic] worked.
Every magic skill has its advantages and disadvantages, that's why it's so annoying.
Finally, Kain made a choice.
[Fire Bullet level 2] 0/3 ( 3)
He still chooses the attack option.
His intuition wasn't bad, so the help from the first few levels of [Spirit Magic] wasn't that great.
Kain's fighting style also rarely involved actual injuries, and if he did get injured, it ant the injury was quite serious, not sothing a low-level [Heal] could cure.
"Stop right there!"
Suddenly, a voice filled with hostility aid straight at Kain, it was a human voice.
From afar, a bald, bearded man with a sword in his hand approached.
And it wasn't just this guy, around him there were also five or six other n gradually approaching from all directions, vaguely forming a siege.
"So that's it, a siege…"
Kain exclaid, but the subject he was referring to was not himself, but the monster lying dead beside him.
It turned out that he wasn't lucky, but that these people were clearly trying to lure this Salamander into a siege.
He beca a robber of prey.
What's even more unfortunate is that this group of people is not an ordinary mob.
The bald man shouted "stop there", which was actually a deliberate act to attract Kain's attention, so that the other mbers could appear in a flash and close the circle around Kain.
Furthermore, the distance between each mber and Kain is equal to a certain extent, making the tactic of aiming for the closest target to break the siege useless.
Kain quickly glanced over, all of them had steady steps, a low center of gravity, and steady sword grips. It seed like they all had fairly good swordsmanship and martial arts.
Kain signed.
What are the chances of him picking a fight with a group of seasoned warriors right from the mont he enters the Dungeon?
"Sorry, I didn't know this was your prey."
"If you want, I can leave this body here."
Kain spoke in good faith, while he was still secretly on guard.
Most conflicts in Dungeons are caused by uneven distribution of rewards, or different groups fighting over monsters from each other.
In short, it's all about money.
Kain thought that if he just left the "spoils" here, those people would stop targeting him. Since their ultimate goal was money, compared to money, deliberately picking a fight with soone of unknown power was not a good idea.
Kain felt no regrets, after all, his real spoils were not the monster's body parts.
