My Refrigerator Turned Into A Dungeon

Chapter 8:

Unrivaled For The First Time In The 2nd Floor

Today, I had garlic ramen and leek dumplings for lunch, which had a good increase in strength.

I was carrying Gen's weight. After fighting such monsters, I didn't have much of an appetite, but as soon as I entered the restaurant and smelled the good smell, my hunger instantly showed up. I ended up ordering a large bowl of ramen. I was surprised I could finish the meal in one piece, thanks to my hearty appetite.

Before, I would have suffered if I have eaten this much. But now that my body is stronger than before, I don't feel any pain. It seems that even my stomach and intestines have grown stronger.

And in the afternoon, I went back to the 2nd floor to fight with the giant cockroach.

But once I tried to fight the cockroaches up close, it went south. The giant cockroaches are the same as normal-sized litter. When I approach, they run away.

So, I thought of a plan to take advantage of their habit.

I tried scattering "cockroach skins" dropped by a giant cockroach as bait. The effect was extraordinary, and even though I was right in front of them, the giant cockroaches greedily ate the drops. Insects are single-minded creatures, and it's true that when they are focused on one thing, they are unable to pay attention to anything else.

There they are. I'm swinging the bat down as hard as I can.

["Goss! Gusha! Jita! Bata! Rumbling! ! "]

"Ugh! Disgusting!"

Even though I crushed its head with a single blow, the giant cockroach with its high life force ran out of control. Aside from the unpleasant feeling of the response, it seems best not to engage in melee combat with the giant cockroaches.

But they don't attack. And if I scatter drops, they will gather. Given these facts, I naturally thought of an efficient way to fight giant cockroaches.

First, I went to a large underground cavern-like hall and scattered litter skins. Then, the litter came out of the darkness. Dozens of giant cockroaches appeared rustling and rustling.

Then, I lightly sprayed them with [Acid Fog] in a wide-area spray.

However, this is not the time to suddenly hit them directly. The fog is sprayed from a high position and gradually descends. In this way, I would have time to evacuate.

As I carefully backed away and kept my distance from the giant cockroaches, the sounds became more intense.

The effect of the acid attack was starting to show, and they began to react. After confirming this, we dashed back to the passage where the simple defensive formation was laid out, set up a thick acid fog kill zone in front of it, and waited behind the net.

Then a swarm of giant cockroaches swept in like a tsunami.

Geez, full of creepiness! And overwhelmingly powerful! But it lost its momentum as soon as it entered the acid fog kill zone. My knowledge and mental strength are about 1.5 times greater than when I was level 10. If these ability values affect the effects of skill, my acid power should have increased significantly.

The acid's power should be increased significantly.

[" Pigi! Gishasha! Wakiwakiwaki!"]

As soon as the giant cockroach plunges into the thickly produced acid fog, it jumps up and begins to suffer as if it had been doused in boiling water. The next giant cockroaches crash into one another, causing pileups and suffering like the other cockroaches. Once again, the hellscape of giant cockroaches is complete.

However, I do not turn my eyes away from them. I intercept the giant cockroaches that are coming from the net. With my feet more than shoulder-width apart and my hips slumped, I step from side to side like a tennis player and swing their bat.

The lure of the dropped items leads to a mass train with a wide-area spray of acid fog. To stop them, I lured them into a closed space and entertained them with a thick acid fog.

The giant cockroaches were helplessly submerged in the acid fog by this special set-up combo, just like a trap by Komei. I watched as they sank into the acid fog, and I'm holding a baseball bat like a tennis racket and doing a high-speed, repetitive horizontal leap.

And what was left behind was a huge number of drops.

I collected them with a broom and a dustpan in a polyethylene bucket. As I did so, I found another drop of skill orbs.

"Mmmm, what luck. Oh, what's that? Three skill orbs have dropped."

It's such a high drop that I can't believe my luck is only 3. I hold the walnut-sized orange-colored skill orb in my hand and focus on it, wondering what skills are inside. Then the word "Agility" popped into my mind.

It was true, the giant cockroach was agile. No wonder its skill was [Agility]. I entered between the nets, and after confirming that there were no shadows of monsters around, I activated the skill orb.

When I call up my status, I see that my level has increased. My ability value is now in the '40s. That is about 4 times higher than at level 1. Compared to when I was at level 1, it is about 4 times higher. I think my ability value already exceeded a professional athlete. However, although I must have beaten them more often than before, I only leveled two times, and I think it is more difficult to raise his level at each level.

And, [Agility] has been added to the skill column, with a correction (+1) to the ability value. That means.

I can't believe it.

"I see, that's how it works the skill [Agility] gives you a +1 correction in agility per level"

I take out my notebook from my breast pocket and make a note. So I don't forget. I'll make sure to transcribe it in my notebook later.

"But this"

I look at my ability value and the view of the 2nd floor I thought. "Isn't it a way to level up like farming".

Farming here means taking the target who wants to raise their level in a net game in a hunting ground with good experience point efficiency and raising their level at once.

There are various ways to do this, but the basic method is to have the target join a party of high-level members and let them absorb the experience without fighting themselves. This way, even if you don't have the strength to defeat monsters, you can level up faster.

Well, I am the only one here, and I am the only one fighting. But I still feel that way because the skill [Acid] is too easy to use. If I had to kill giant cockroaches with a baseball bat one by one without the skill [Acid], I would not be able to raise even one level in a day.

At any rate, the hunting efficiency is so low that I have to use a broom and a dustpan to collect the dropped goods.

In other words, I already found a strategy for the second basement level. Then, I know what to do. Genocide time!

.

16:00. I'm already at level 17, and I got another two skill orbs to add to my collection.

I'm so happy.

My ability values are already in the 50s, and my mental strength has exceeded 60. The mental stress of continuously staring at the giant cockroaches is probably the main reason for the increase. In addition, while waiting for the swarms of giant cockroaches to disperse in a acid fog, I did high-speed repetitive horizontal jumps and squats, I also stood on one leg and balanced on the other. I'm glad that standing on one leg and balancing on the other produced good results.

I could still be hunting, but the polyethylene bucket that holds the drops is already full. It is so heavy that the bottom is about to fall out. So, I think I'll call it a day.

I went to the super public bath as a reward for my hard work.

I felt that I had to heal my tiredness properly, and for some reason, I could feel the eyes flickering around me in the dressing room and the bath. But there is also, Who the hell are you with my body now!?? It's so much, it's so mushy. It's so different that even if I look at my body in the mirror, I'll be startled unintentionally.

That aside, I washed my body thoroughly and then soaked myself in the hot water. After soaking my tired body in the mildly acidic nano-carbonated spring water and taking a breath, I was quietly excited thinking about my dungeon capture.
