Chapter 221 - A Rare Opportunity That He Should Absolutely Not Miss
But luckily for them Liam and Ian both knew it, and so he activated his perception skill curious to know what his System would tell him about it and a message immediately appeared.
[ ITEM ]
Verarium medium grade 200g : ore used to craft high grade weapons, value 100 000 gold coins or 1 000 diamonds (500 000 gold coins or 5 000 diamonds per kg)
After reading the message to everyone he gave the piece back to Ian and said to the others : "I would like to rest for a while, I can barely use my Chains of Restraint and I better be able to use them so I can at least subdue the dungeon boss."
He then asked curiously to Liam who was still looking at the map thoughtful : "Should we expect to fight different summoned creatures ?"
Liam looked at him and he nodded explaining : "I don't have much experience in this kind of dungeons but each time that the boss of the dungeon summoned creatures, they were overpowered, there was always only one or two, but it was enough to cause a lot of trouble.
We've always had men who were seriously injured after those fights, and I don't think Axel and Alan will be strong enough to fight against them, and either way, there will always be Dead Knights and Dead Wizards to deal with, so it's best if I and Ian take care of those creatures."
Kevin nodded and took the map to give it back to Axel, he had gotten the information he wanted and then he thought of something, as he now knew that when his Dead Knights killed he could earn experience points, it would be nice if he could summon Dead Wizards too.
On a battlefield his summoned creatures could make a difference, and this dungeon was a rare opportunity that he should absolutely not miss.
The only problem was that his Soul force reserve would probably be too weak to copy this summoning spell, so he needed to use his Warrior Spirit skill to make sure he could.
But then again he was too weak to use it without collapsing, his mental fatigue was already starting to show the first symptoms which was a headache.
He made Ashton's remedy appear in his hand and he asked Ian and Alan for their advice. Ashton had assured him that it was safe and that he could take it without worry, and he had told him to use it as soon as he felt a headache coming on so that the symptoms wouldn't get worse, but as he had already taken one today, he didn't know if he could take a second one in the same day.
Ian and Alan both agreed that he could take a second one as Sunday was a special day, but he had to be careful not to use any during the week so he wouldn't get addicted to it, and the second risk was that his body could get used to it and then this remedy would not be as effective as it was today.
It was the same for Erik, it was better to avoid taking it every day after his training and even if it took him longer to get to the Stage 2 of a Warrior Spirit, it didn't really matter, there was no deadline to reach it anyway.
Kevin nodded, as for them it was fine, he drank the second remedy, and Axel then asked him : "Why did you take another remedy babe ? You told me that you didn't want to use your Warrior Spirit skill anymore today and if you had rested a little more you could have used your Chains of Restraint again, so why ?"
Kevin then explained to him : "I've been thinking about it and like Liam said, we're not going to run into this kind of dungeon every Sunday.
So I want to take the opportunity to try and copy the Dead Wizards summoning spell and I'm sure that with my current Soul force reserve it will be impossible to do so … That's why I need my Warrior Spirit skill to be able to make sure I can copy it."
Alan put a hand on Axel's shoulder and he said to him : "Kev is right and you know it, the fact that he can summon creatures is quite useful for us today, and they can still protect us in our future fights, I promise you that Kevin won't have any negative effect with this kind of remedy, not if he only takes it on Sundays."
Axel nodded but still said to Kevin through their telepathic link, 'If you don't feel well let me know, I'll join you right away.'
Kevin then said to reassure him, 'Honey, I promise to be careful and I don't intend to participate at the last fight, I just want to try to copy this spell, and I will use my Warrior Spirit skill just for that.'
Axel kissed him tenderly on the lips and then when he saw that everyone was ready to leave and that they had finished picking up everything he asked out loud this time because it was starting to bother him : "Don't you feel weird that there are no boxes ?"
Liam looked at him and said : "It's not weird, actually we rarely find boxes, but sometimes we come across piles of weapons and magic bags like in the boss room of the last dungeon."
Kevin then said to Axel because he had a strange feeling about it too : "For me there are two possibilities, the first is that the one who was helping us decided to stop providing us with boxes, and the second is that boxes can only be found in the blue dungeons."
Liam shook his head and he told them that it was the same for the blue dungeons and Axel then reminded Kevin that before meeting him he hadn't seen many boxes so Liam was right, and that also meant that the one who had helped them at the beginning of Kevin's arrival had stopped, but why ?
Alan then said to them : "The boxes found in the dungeons don't really matter anymore, thanks to your system you can still get boxes of legendary and divine grade and you can already buy all kinds of weapons and potions ... By the way, we can even buy ingredients, so if Ashton's family thinks they have a monopoly on certain ingredients, maybe we should give them a lesson in humility by providing the Regeneration potion high grade the men need at the border ourselves."
Kevin smirked but still told him : "I agree with you, but I would like to have Ashton's opinion on what his family is doing before I give them that lesson."
