Chapter 69: Chapter 69Aaron left the dungeon at noon as per his schedule. Sear?h the n?vel_Fire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

    He could actually utilize the credits he used to enter the dungeon for the entire day. The dungeons would always respawn the monsters, no matter how many you kill.

    So, normally, hunters wouldn’t venture too far in unless they had plans to enter the next floor. Only in such situations do they go in deep, or they would stick to the starting area, as that would make it easier for them to exit whenever they want.

    With his high attributes and seventy skeletons, he easily swept away the first floor of the dungeon, then he went on to clear the second floor, which is also the last floor of the dungeon.

    The dungeon that Aaron entered was E-rank, but that doesn’t mean that the monsters inside would start at level 21 or something. There would be monsters below that level, but at least half would be 21 and above. Most of the time, more than half would be in the required range.

    This dungeon has two floors.

    The first floor contained a lot of goblins that were at level 20 and below, which he easily swept through, but the second level was the main level of this dungeon.

    This is the floor where the highest level went to level 25. Even though that was the case, Aaron easily swept them away due to his high attributes level.

    No one would have such high attributes as him.

    Every attribute of him was as if all the FSPs that were obtained till now and some were allocated to single attribute.

    One should remember that the FSPs gained till level 20, which is Rank-0 is only +5 per every level, and that means a total of 100 FSPs would be earned by level 20.

    At level 21, the number of FSPs gained would be +10, making it a total of 110.

    Even if a single attribute like STR is taken, it was at 155 the previous night. He added a few points before entering the dungeon, and it increased a bit.

    Even when compared to the previous day’s value, which is at 155, the STR value of others should be around 120 or so (110 added to initial STR at awakening); there is almost a 30 difference.

    This is if they dump all their FSPs in STR only.

    For Aaron, there are four attributes at 155 and two at 205 the previous day. So, it can be said that Aaron possessed the prowess of more than six level 21 people or monsters.

    Even a level 25 opponent might have, at highest, 160 to 170 if he dumps all his FSPs into a single attribute, but that is not something one would do.

    Even if they allocate a higher percentage for their main attributes, the other attributes would get some allocation.

    So, facing a level 25 alone would be easy for Aaron, as long as the other has some skill that can restrict him or defeat him easily.

    Yeah, in this world, attributes are important, but so are skills. If two opponents have the same number of attributes, then skills would play the role of deciding the winner.

    The one who has better skills or skills at a higher rank, if both have the same skills, would be the winner, most likely. There are some small factors that may change the outcome, but the most likely outcome would be in favor of someone with higher skills.

    Luckily for Aaron, he doesn’t just have attributes. He has 70 skeletons and 20 ghosts, which played a crucial role in the dungeon clearing operation.

    ---

    As Aaron started cooking his lunch, he checked his status. He didn’t do so inside the dungeon as distractions in enemy areas are a taboo that can be fatal to oneself.

    When he started out, he did check, but he learned quickly that he shouldn’t do things like that unless there was a need or he was in a safe area.

    Aaron was able to reach level 24 from level 21.

    Though the dungeon has high-level monsters and he has a 10xEXP bonus, the experience that was needed to level up has increased, especially after reaching Rank-1.

    The only reason why he quickly reached level 21 was because of the accumulation of EXP before completing his rank-up quest and also the death of the dungeon boss. If not for that, he wouldn’t have reached level 21 before he arrived at the academy.

    For anyone, reaching level 20 from level 1 is one step, while raising a single level from there is another step.

    So, he could only increase three levels by noon. If he had concentrated on hunting for the entire day or if the dungeon respawn rate was high, then he would have reached even higher levels by night, but that was not the case.

    Even though hunting till night was tempting to him, Aaron didn’t fall into the temptation.

    Levelling up didn’t improve attributes directly. If that were the case, he would have concentrated only on levelling up, but that was not the case.

    For every level u,p he would get FSPs, which he has to distribute as he wishes. Even if he earns a lot of FSPs, he can’t distribute as he wishes, or he would lose control of his body and cause trouble.

    So, he always improved his attributes by a limited value daily. With the help of training, he could increase that quota. So, he is not going to be stuck in levelling all day so that those FSPs would be a decoration.
