Reincarnated as an Energy with a System

Chapter 831: Solo Clear

Fighting the Vileshrooms was rather easy at this point. He was already used to their patterns and skills, so he could fight them continuously without stopping.         

    

From time to time, he would use his skills. He would draw a card and use it. If it was a card that he didn’t like, or affected him in a negative way, he would simply not use it until the fight with the monster had ended.     

At that point, he would use it and spend the next two minutes slowly walking forward through the maze.     

By the time he found the next Vileshroom, he would be already out of the effect of the card by the time he was to fight again.     

Ning was very surprised by the cards he had. Most of these cards were simple skills, active or otherwise, and were extremely unique from each other.     

None of the cards he received ever felt the same and none of the cards did anything similar.     

There would always be something that made them different from the rest of the cards.     

Also, Ning was surprised that he was finding a few Uncommon cards too. When he realized that after the constant hunting today his Fate stacks were at 76, he was surprised.     

The Fate stacks stacked independently meaning that each of the numbers had its own timer before they disappeared. However, Ning hadn’t expected the timer to be so… long.     

He wouldn’t doubt if the stack was meant to last for over a day. His chance to summon Unique cards was now at 7.6%, and the chance to summon Legendary cards was at 0.76%.      

Ning knew that with his luck it would be impossible to summon those, but he was still glad that they lowered the Common card’s chances by over 8% overall, giving him a better chance at summoning the Uncommon or maybe even Rare cards.     

Ning fought his way through the maze, slowly gaining Exp. After killing 25 or so Vileshrooms, Ning had obtained close to 2000 Exp. He needed about 750 more to reach the next Level.     

At the same time, he also improved his Fate stacks until they reached 100.     

Finally, after over 20 minutes, Ning arrived at the boss’s room.     

The Shroom King stood at the center of the room, so Ning began fighting without thought.     

He pulled out a card.     

[Short Blink: Teleport anywhere within 20 meters.]     

‘Well that’s a shitty card for this situation,’ Ning thought. He thought for a bit and activated it.     

Even if nothing, he wanted to get the crit chance. So, Ning activated the teleport and appeared behind the Shroom King.      

He started his barrage of attack with the Wind Arrows and then went to using his spear.     

Ning constantly went in and out of the range of the monster, attacking whenever he could, and running the other times.     

Unlike when he fought with a party, this took quite a long time to bring the boss down to 50% HP.     

When he did, the boss stopped attacking with its arms, and instead the mushrooms on its body moved.     

Ning prepared for the Seed Bullet assault, but something else happened.     

The boss suddenly let out a spore from all over his body that was simply unavoidable.     

[You’ve been hit by the Shroom King’s Poison Spore]         

    

[You are taking 7 damage per second for the next 60 seconds.]     

“What? 420 damage over a minute?” Ning looked back at the boss. What happened to the Seed Bullet attacks? Was this a different phase?     

He pulled out another card from his skill called [Lacerating Aura]. It created an aura around him that dealt 100% of Ning’s damage in a 2-meter radius.     

This was a fantastic AOE card and it was also an Uncommon card, which made it all the better thanks to his Fate’s Aid skill.     

Unfortunately, it was a skill monster he had to deal with, so the timing on the card was quite unfortunate.      

“Sigh, Activate,” he said. Any damage was good damage.     

Even through the poison fog, Ning continued fighting. He would lose half of his health, sure, but the damage he could deal was also quite a lot.     

By the time the Lacerating Aura was nearly done, the Boss was down to 20% health, and so the two different Vileshroom dropped from the Boss’s body.     

Ning fought them carefully while continuously dodging whatever he could. He was hit by the Vileshrooms a few times, but he made sure not to get hit by the boss as he hit the hardest of them all.     𝞸𝗏𝓁xt.𝐜𝓞𝑀

Ning was down to around 200 health when he managed to kill the boss’s subordinate and it only had about 15% more HP remaining.     

Ning pulled out one last card to help him fight. A white card came forth called [Mind Whip]     

[Mind Whip: Deals 180% of your INT as Absolute Damage]     

“Oh!” Ning looked in surprise. He had heard about Absolute Damage but had never seen it before.     

Absolute Damage meant that whatever the Damage Value was, Ning would deal exactly that amount as damage, regardless of the defense and resistance of the one that was getting attacks.     

The only way to possibly protect oneself from Absolute Damage was to have an all-around damage reduction.     

Without thought, Ning activated the common card and dealt 158 damage instantly. He tried to follow it by using Wind Arrows, but it turned out he was out of mana now.     

“Tsk!” he thought and went back to fighting the boss who now had less than 100 HP left.     

Ning attacked 4 times as fast as he could, which somehow ended up being over 20 seconds due to having to run away from the boss when he attacked.     

Once all the attacks were done, Ning successfully killed the boss and completed the dungeon.     

A bunch of notifications popped up in front of him, letting him know what he had gotten.     

Ning received 7500 Exp, allowing him to level up twice to reach Level 14. He received an Observer stone as well.     

Finally, the last thing he received was another item.     

A Shoe.
