Training camp inside a hidden dungeon p.2

Cyrus Traveresed the Dungeon making sure to not agro any monster as it was troublesome to deal with.

Cyrus invested his 20 attribute points on his stats as followed: 10 on STR, 5 on AGI, and 5 on DEX.

his Currents stats looked as such:

STR: 11 AGI: 9 DEX: 8

INT: 1 WIS: 1 VIT: 1

Cyrus moved all the way towards the uppermost section of the Dungeon till he reached the border of the dungeon with an invisible shield that didn't let him move any further after searching around Cyrus found his target.

A lone mountain Goblin that unlike its brethren moved alone Cyrus killed the Goblin and before it respawned he set up a contraption that upon Goblin's respawn, it would activate and make noise in the distance the materials used in this contraption were ropes and utensils he previously had bought.

The first Condition was to assassinate 20 monsters without alerting them, silent takedowns.

Cyrus took out the throwing knives as his gun would make too much noise for them to become a silent takedown.

Cyrus had increased his strength stat enough for it to kill the goblin with two throws Cyrus had experience with throwing knives so it was a real smooth and easy task.

Poor goblin never realized what hit him as he died and respawned 20 times to just suffer the same fate but it wasn't the end for the poor goblin.

Cyrus cleared the first condition easier than imagined.

The second condition was 20 silent takedowns while blindfolded.

Already knowing where exactly the lone Goblin respawned Cyrus put on a blindfold and just killed the poor guy 20 more times before it had any time to react or turn around to look at the assailant.

At this point, the already depressed goblin was more depressed and each time he respawned he would just try to yell before dying but to no avail.

The second condition went as smooth as the first one now it was time for the 3rd condition.

Follow a monster for 500 meters without being noticed while blindfolded.

This condition was harder than the first 2 conditions but there was a goblin in this dungeon that no matter how many times one killed it, would mindlessly rush towards the jungle and try to solve some mathematic problems as if he was newton.

Cyrus killed the monster in his hideout and rushed to its respawn point before it respawned, Cyrus tailed the monster silently following it for 1 kilometer it wasn't that Cyrus's stealth was perfect it was that this monster just didn't give a fuck about the surrounding seemingly it had lost his little mind trying to solve math.

The third condition was cleared as easily as the first two.

The last Condition was to take down 20 moving monsters without seeing or hearing only through the sense of smell.

The poor mathematician was the to-go monster for this condition after spawn-camping another Goblin Cyrus completed the last condition of the skill.

*ding*

[Congratulations you have fulfilled all of the hidden conditions learning the skill:

{Heightened Senses} (Rank A)]

Cyrus was super excited to try and utilize his Mana as ever since he had reincarnated mana felt strange to him.

Like an Excited 3 years old kid Cyrus manoeuvered mana and made various different little dolls with mana having fun with it.

It only took Cyrus 7 hours to learn this skill as the respawn rate of monsters in Specialized difficulty was 5 minutes while on other difficulties it took more time.

Most of the time was just spent traversing the rocky terrain of the Dungeon.

After running out of mana Cyrus was snapped out of his trance and moved on after all he had to take full advantage of the 50% boost before it ran out.

Cyrus spend the next 4 days chugging down Mana potions while killing monsters.

On the last day, Cyrus prepared himself and faced the boss monster as the monster had already gotten impatient as his underlings constantly respawned and were terrified of going outside of the village slowing down the Hunting and resource gathering process significantly.

The Boss monster who was called Goblin Chief didn't spare any time as it attack Cyrus swinging his giant axe while the other goblins were the size of 12 to 13-year-old kids the boss monster was the size of an adult man.

Cyrus dived forward and then flipped as his hands reached the ground in just a split second Cyrus was located behind the Chief.

Cyrus let out 6 shots hitting the boss on the vital spots 10% hp was gone like that.

Chief Just rushed Cyrus while letting out cries of pain and swinging his axe more wildly than before.

Cyrus did some simple kiting just Jumping back and running backwards while constantly Shooting the boss monster.

From the start of the fight to when the boss had reached 50% health Cyrus had already downed 7 mana potion showing how shitty the early game of Gunner class was.

After reaching 50% HP Chief used one of its skills called fortification.

It was a skill that increased once physical defense by 50% for the duration of 2 minutes, a pain in the ass for someone like Cyrus that didn't have any sort of armor penetration skills and items.

For two minutes Cyrus used a movement called Bunny hop which was referred to as a certain set of movements that OG gamers of the 21st century used in FPS games.

It was essentially using a series of Jumps while running building up momentum as you either kited the enemy or wanted to reach a destination faster.

Cyrus used this movement to kite the boss in this case shooting him.

While it wasn't a recognized skill the constant Jumping would definitely take its toll on stamina after the fortification was over Cyrus stopped his movement slowing down to conserve stamina the boss monster also slowed down as well.

Chief used another skill called Berserkification a classic skill of Mindless monsters.

While it boosted the prowess of the Chief by two times if he wasn't able to kill Cyrus in the next 5 minutes it would be extremely fatigued and debuffed.

Cyrus didn't know that this boss also had this skill which was a blunder on his part to come underprepared if he know the boss would have this skill, he would have bought stamina potions.

Cyrus decided to rely on Heightened Senses and dodge with minimal movement.

It wasn't hard for him to do so as Chief's movements were too obvious to dodge.

Cyrus unknowingly was cornered by the boss he just didn't believe a monster had enough intelligence to use such a tactic.

Now 4 minutes and 57 seconds had passed if Cyrus could survive this predicament then it would be an easy kill for him.

Cornered to the wall Cyrus focused on the boss's movement not missing the slightest flinches.

Boss swung his axe horizontally downwards it was too fast but Cyrus Barely dodged the attack by turning sideways unknowingly he was hit with a powerful punch from the boss and sent flying.

5 minutes 59 seconds, the boss used all of his might and throw its axe toward the airborne Cyrus.

Cyrus now airborne had a smirk on his face as he used his gun and let out 6 shots.

First Second and Third shots all hit the end of the handle of the axe moving it slightly off course.

Forth and Fifth hit the middle of the wide blade of the axe speeding up the process of the axe going off course.

The sixth shot hit the very tip sending the already off-course axe even more off course with a 0% chance of collision.

Chief was baffled as it fell to its knees feeling the fatigue.

who the hell was this guy?

Cyrus flipped backward and landed on both legs all this took place in just 2 seconds.

The boss tried to get up and attack Cyrus but he was met with 6 bullets in his face.

Cyrus was now furious Once bitten, Twice Shy, Third time a fool this sentence is a sentence that Cyrus is a firm believer in, Cyrus now furious as he is going to be seen as an anomaly and have to think of a thousand excuses to give to people.

He lashed out and yelled at the AI: Delara you fucking busy body bitch stop announcing my name without consulting me first.

The AI was surprised at the mention of her name and how this player knew worldwide announcements were something that a player could choose for it to be announced or not. Cyrus Continued

"Acting like you can't hear me huh? you do know that you can't directly interfere inside the game world and you are doing whatever you want without consulting me first"

No reply was heard Cyrus then smirked and said something that the AI couldn't ignore.

" Not talking huh then I guess I can go and spend some time with a little blue-haired girl called Marilee maybe I can sell her to some slave traders they sure pay a lot of money and she is beautiful"

The atmosphere around got dark sparks of ominous black lighting were sparking around as a scary voice said "I DARE YOU TO DO SO"

to which Cyrus casually replied "Turn off the special effects bitch we both know the most you can is to ban me but you do know that I have a background that you can't ignore how many can you ban? I can send endless mobs of players to make that little girl's life a living hell"

Cyrus was then teleported inside a white room where a middle-aged woman sat on a throne.

of course, no matter what Cyrus wouldn't do anything to harm the little girl as in his past life she had helped him quite a lot. and the AI knew this as well but still in the off chance that Cyrus would do so she couldn't afford that possibility.

Cyrus knew one more thing and that was when the identity of Marilee was leaked many people took advantage of this little poor girl trying to extort the AI but she killed the little girl and made the game soo hard to play that players begged for forgiveness.

Cyrus moved up close to AI and said" You know that I can't harm her even if I want to as for the reason it doesn't have anything to do with you let's make a deal."

Delara was intrigued and gestured for Cyrus to continue.

Cyrus took in a deep breath and said: "I protect the little girl and take her under my wings although she is immune to NPCs She is not to players but under my family's protection she can freely grow strong enough to fend for herself, In return all I want is simple don't mess with me and arrange it so that I can change my class to Sharpshooter of course, whether I pass the test for it or not is my problem if I fail you get the last laugh while I promise with my account on the line to protect the little Marilee for the rest of my time playing this game."

Delara heaved a sigh of relief and accepted Cyrus's terms and made it so that when Cyrus visited Marilee she would go with him.

Although she had a thousand questions as to how Cyrus know all this information she didn't want to risk any fallout by asking unnecessary questions.

After coming to an agreement Cyrus logged off the game satisfied with the result he knew if he asked more he would fuck up the whole game and he still had many things to do.
