Blood Assimilation

Chapter 192 - Conqueror

At this point, Randy planned on bulldozing through the entire dungeon without stopping to take a break, as that would only serve to waste unnecessary time on each floor. And besides, he was not that tired since his level also increased each time that he cleared a floor.

As he had decided on this course of action, Randy proceeded to clear the fifth floor without resting again. On the first four segments on the fifth floor, he faced a group of normal tigers that had different colored patterns on their body, which varied on each segment of the four segments. 

However, on the fifth segment of the fifth floor, he fought against a group of lighting using tigers that seemed faster than the Agile Wolves that he met on the first floor. 

Randy struggled to defeat these seemingly untouchable lighting beasts using only his footwork technique, Chasing Tigers steps. 

Ironically, the name of his footwork had something to do with chasing tigers, meaning he would be as fast a tiger, but these tigers were not ordinary tigers that he could simply chase after with his footwork technique alone. 

Furthermore, the reason why he could not catch up with them was not that he was lacking in speed or perception. In truth, he was able to catch with them, but he could not land a simple hit on the other parties most of the time. 

After all, humans could not compare to beasts with an innate strong physique that could make their level insignificant. But since Randy was stronger than the average person in terms of his attributes, he was able to keep up with them, but he only managed to defeat one after so long. 

And thus, he had no choice but to use his assimilated state, Werewolf King of Wind, and its assimilated Gale Riding Skill.

With the effects of this skill, he was easily able to catch up to them by riding on the wind. Naturally, the challenger's system detected the skill that he used, and as usual, it mistakenly assumed that it was his innate skill and awakened a similar skill called— 'Wind Sailing'.

Back in the safe room, Randy did not use his Gale Riding Skill due to how small the inside the room was. He was afraid that he might accidentally smash into the wall or something since his level had increased, and he had yet to test out the Gale Riding Skill, which was his movement skill at the moment. 

But now that the system had given him this Wind Sailing Skill, he did not need to use his assimilated state anymore to clear the remaining floors. 

And just like that, Randy went ahead and cleared the remaining five floors of the dungeon of beasts. Although he had to struggle way more than he had initially thought he would. 

The reason was the fact that the remaining floors mostly had elemental beasts. In other words, there were no normal beasts at all. Randy had fought against different kinds of elemental beasts like Flame Birds, Mountain Lions, Earth Bulls, Swift Silver Wolves, Wind Scythe Birds, Swift Leopards, Ice Wolves, and many others with bizarre skills. 

Against the beast that had bizarre skills, Randy did not give them a chance to land their hit a second time after observing their skills and proceeded to defeat them quickly. And then afterward, he dealt with those with normal-looking skills.

It was a real headache for Randy to defeat those elemental beasts and the others with bizarre skills, especially the plant manipulating beasts on the tenth floor of the dungeon of beasts. However, Randy did not complain much about it, considering that he got stronger each he defeated these beasts.

Not to mention, he had also awakened new skills during this entire process, so he found this experience well worth it. 

However, after clearing the dungeon, Randy was left puzzled when he realized that quest from his world's system did not indicate the completion of the quest from before.

Randy could not help but ask the system in his mind: "System, why is there no notification that I have completed the quest?"

The system replied with a line of text: [The has yet to kill 1000 beast in this dungeon. So far, the host has only killed 100 beasts in total]

"What?!" Randy was shocked he heard this, and then he said: "I have killed so many beasts just now and even cleared the dungeon. But you're telling me that I have yet to kill a thousand beasts? Were you expecting me to clear this dungeon more than ten times or something?"

[…]

The system did not bother to respond to his question. 

Randy thought it was a waste of time clearing the same dungeon all over again since there was a chance that he might not level up even if he did. 

And thus he immediately complained: "Damn. If it's not because I'm curious about what you want to help me unseal, I would have…"

At this moment, the challenger's system suddenly announced to him.

[You have cleared the dungeon of beasts!]

[For accomplishing such a feat, an appropriate reward would be given to the challenger]

[You have been awarded the title 'Dungeon Conqueror']

[Dungeon Conqueror]

[Title Effect: You can teleport from anywhere inside and out of any dungeon that was once cleared by you. Furthermore, whenever you enter any dungeon in this world, the probability of acquiring an ancient treasure as a reward after challenging and clearing the selected dungeon would increase drastically due to the effects of this title]

"…"

Randy was quiet for a few moments after reading through these lines of texts on the blue screen on his left vision, but he was not that happy with this achievement.

"Challenger's system, can I focus on clearing the last five floors of this dungeon and not have to start from the beginning all over again?" Randy suddenly inquired. 

[That is possible]

Randy was mood was immediately uplifted and he calmed down afterward: "Alright, let's do that. After all, I can't afford to kill all those weak beasts just to come back here again. That'll be a waste of time."

Randy proceeded to kill the beasts in the last five floors a few more times, spending an untold amount of time in the process. 

And then, after killing the last beast on the tenth floor, he was suddenly reminded that he had initially planned to return to the city before nighttime.

"Shit, I lost track of time and almost forgot about that since I was engrossed in fighting these dungeon beasts. Now, what should I do? Should I give on the quest? No, that's illogical… Even if I have to stay outside afterward, I'll still complete this quest no matter what." Randy decisively said to himself.

[The host does not need to worry about the time spent in this dungeon]

"What do you mean by that?" Randy was puzzled when he saw this text.

[The time difference between this dungeon and the outside world is vastly immense. At most, only a few hours have gone by since the host started challenging this dungeon]

"The hell… Why didn't you mention something like that earlier?"

[Because the host did not bother to ask, and the system is not obligated to tell the host everything since this was a piece of information that could easily be accessed or obtained from the people of this world]

"…Whatever. At least now I know, so I don't have to worry about spending more time in here." 

Randy focused his mind and continued hunting the beasts in the last five floors of the dungeon of beasts a few more times, and he managed to level up a few times during a few runs, albeit taking more beasts than the usual ten per level increase.. This was due to the level difference between him and the dungeon beasts.
