My Level Zero System

"Could he defeat a fourth floor guardian monster... by himself?"

An Adventurer asked in an uncertain tone.

Although they all knew that Kain was strong, the power of the guardian monster was deeply engraved in the minds of every Adventurer. It would always be a battle with a large number of members, long exploration time, and careful preparation. But what Kain did was like taking a walk in a flower garden.

To fight a guardian monster, manpower, and a sword or bow alone are not enough. They might be much stronger than the standards of a normal human, but that little bit of "much" is not worth much to a monster.

Normally, they would have taken down the guardian monsters with defense combined with the use of poison or explosives. But those supplies had been completely lost in the Salamander's rampage. So all they could do was sit there and wait, watching as Kain entered the most dangerous part of the Dungeon.

At the same time, inside the room of the guardian monster.

It's a Pythonel.

The monster's long, coiled body glistened under the light emitted from the glowing grass. This monster was enormous, its width was no less than two meters, and its total length was estimated to be no less than twenty meters. It was worthy of being a monster of colossal size.

As soon as Kain entered the danger zone, the monster awoke and its body began to move around, this heavy yet flexible feeling made the ground shake with each roll of Pythonel's body.

[Fire Bullet].

A fireball with terrifying heat and explosive power hit the monster's body, but this attack only caused the shiny outer scales to turn black like metal when exposed to fire. This thing's defensive ability was even higher than the Salamander's skin.

But compared to Salamander, this thing is more severely restrained.

Compared to some special types, metals have almost no immunity to [Thunder Magic].

For most other Magus, this will probably be a difficult battle, because your opponent is like a giant block of metal that can move quickly and swerve, and your magic will have a hard time damaging this thick and sturdy metal.

But Kain did not need to break.

[Thunder Summon].

From the top of the monster's head, a bolt of lightning was pulled out from the void and began to wreak havoc wherever it appeared. At the same time, dense lightning also appeared around Kain because he had also used [Thunder Summon] in the area around him.

[Thunder Bullet].

Kain quickly guided the surrounding lightning, causing the randomly moving lightning bolts to move with purpose. Curling, twisting, squeezing into continuously flickering spheres.

Not only did this action require extremely high proficiency in the magic skill [Thunder Bullet], but the magic skill [Thunder Navigation] was also key to making this a quick success.

To be more certain of destroying a monster as large as the Pythonel before him, Kain would push himself to the limit with a barrage of seven connected lightning spheres, which had also wiped out the large Spidyl swarm earlier in one strike.

Like the previous victims, the monster was momentarily paralyzed, witnessing Kain condense seven giant lightning spheres, all of which connected into a large band, forming a deadly ring that shot towards the monster.

With a miserable screech, the monster was literally roasted from the inside out, its hard scales turning into an iron furnace that roasted the unfortunate monster.

The events at Spidyl's lair repeat themselves, and Kain still wins.

He sat down quietly on the ground, feeling the lack in his body.

This battle looks very simple, Kain paralyzes and destroys the monster with his strongest attack. However, this is only effective against opponents with low magic resistance and biological characteristics that are easily affected by lightning.

It can be said that Kain was very wise in choosing this place, a place where he is the one who can overcome all enemies.

But if we consider the level of pure danger, this guardian monster Pythonel is even harder to deal with than the mutated Slime in that medium-sized Dungeon.

A monster that provides 20 skill points, it is truly the most skill point-giving monster Kain has ever seen.

With 20 skill points in hand, Kain showed hesitation for the first time.

He also didn't continue to pour more skill points into [Heal], level 5 was enough for Kain to deal with most situations.

He also didn't plan on continuing to invest in [Spirit Magic], both [Seek] and [Imitative] were already enough for the time being, spending effort upgrading them wouldn't bring much benefit. Besides, Kain would be entering the Misty Dungeon in a month.

There, [Spirit Magic] will encounter extremely strong resistance, its effectiveness will be reduced to one out of ten, and upgrading it will not be very useful.

Thus, in front of Kain there were only [Thunder Magic], [Enhancement Magic], and [Fire Magic]. Read exclusive content at empire

[Fire Magic] can be removed from the list from the very first second, because even if [Fire Wave] is upgraded, it won't increase Kain's overall strength, which is too wasteful.

[Enhancement Magic] is also a good choice, after all, Kain's [Enhancement Tool] is still only level 1. This magic skill can not only enhance the weapons in his hands, but even clothes, jewelry, etc. can be enhanced, as long as it is within the concept of "physical tools". Imagine two layers of armor reinforced with [Enhancement Tool level Max]? This will greatly increase Kain's chances of survival.

The final choice is [Thunder Magic].

If he wants to continue expanding the influence of this magic system, 1000 skill points is the only way.

Kain should have eliminated this option from the start, just like [Fire Magic]. Because choosing this option meant that Kain would have to accept that for a long period of time, his progress in strength would be zero.
