Redo! Last Chance for a Dying World!

Chapter 54: Power Leveling

Zolis wasted no time throwing herself into the group of Goblins, clearing a wide path with every swing of her hammer. The face of the hammer was almost as big as the Goblins, it turned their bodies limp as they flew into the distance.

The Mages quickly noticed the situation and began to cast their spells, though only a few of them had a clear shot. Two arrows tore through their necks before they could finish casting.

Geth quickly cast Restoration on Zolis as the third Mage finished casting. An Ice Spike shot at Zolis, shattering the Barrier but stopping the spike shortly before reaching her.

Zolis had just reached the middle of the room. Geth was able to see a large influx of Mana pulling towards her hammer as the creatures surrounded her.

While she was casting, two Swordsmen slashed at her. Minor wounds appeared on her arms that were quickly healed by Restoration's effects.

Then the hammer started glowing a hot red as if it were metal pulled from a forge. She slammed the weapon onto the ground.

A four-foot wall of flames flew out in every direction surrounding her. The Goblins who had just hit her, along with all of those in the immediate vicinity, were incinerated.

The wall of flames stretched out almost 15 yards in each direction. All of the creatures within the first 5 yards were turned to ash.

Those that were up to 10 yards out died from the scorching flames, as those in the last 5 yards were severely burned. They were still on fire and taking more damage every second.

:Goblin Swordsmen (Level 13); HP- 210/550:

Geth whistled as he looked at the damage, that particular Goblin had been at the very edge of the flame. Looking around Zolis, Mana Cores littered the area where Goblins had once stood. Geth could also make out two Skill Cards from the Mana surrounding them.

Close to half of the Goblins in the room had been destroyed in that one move. She turned and grinned at Geth, calling out to him, "I'll be on the top of the leaderboards soon!"

He just flipped her off. But she was probably right. Thanks to his healing, he received 14% of the experience from those kills. The number was insane, she had to have jumped up to Level 20 or 21.

:Geth (Level 23); XP- 2654/6,500:

He had only been at 87 experience after defeating Gourmand, then received about 1,000 from the trio's efforts. The rest had come in just that one moment!

'One swing of her hammer and I gained over 1500 experience, Filthy should have gotten 1000 or so. That means she gained over 9000. What an incredibly effective way of dealing with trash mobs!'

The rest of the mobs were cleared in another wave of fire as Geth and Filthy were finishing off the Mages. Filthy thoroughly inspected the area before they left and found a small wooden chest near the back wall.

Zolis opened up the small box that Filthy had found before gathering the loot. Inside were two Skill Cards!

One of them was Common while the other was Uncommon. The Uncommon Skill was a type of protective barrier that Geth didn't hesitate to take.

The Common Skill was called 'Sight' and it was a dulled-down version of Geth's Inspection. It was a passive Skill that would allow the user to see an enemy's name, level, and health. Also, it was able to see the name and effects of equipment. It couldn't be upgraded.

Geth allowed Filthy to take it since it would be very useful for him when scouting. The trio began picking up the Mana Cores and Skill Cards that Zolis had earned.

One of the Mages dropped the Common Ice Spike Skill, while one of the Swordsmen had dropped another Berserk. Geth thought about learning the Ice Spike Skill, but he didn't want to divert from his current build.

On top of that, he was starting to spread his SP pretty thin. If he kept on picking up Skills, they would have to conquer hundreds of Dungeons and earn more SP to make them all useful.

'Maybe Skills aren't as hard to find as I thought. Albus, what gives?'

:The first Dungeon you took over was just filled with Slimes. Did you really think you would get much from a Dungeon that you could solo clear under Level 15?:

Geth was enlightened, but he felt a bit dumb. How could he compare his current experiences with this Dungeon? There was a world of difference in difficulty.

'I'm glad that I'm a bit overpowered. If possible, it would be better to conquer all of the Goblin and Slime Dungeons before working our way up.' He thought. 'Though come to think of it I haven't seen a single Slime since then.'

He wondered what other creatures were in their local region. He was still pretty close to the north end, up by the river. They still had a long way to go before reaching the southern end.

They finished clearing the loot and headed back to where they'd found Gourmand. When they arrived, the trio was waiting for them. They had green goop covering them from where they were harvesting corpses.

"Geth!" Farris jogged up to him quickly, pulling out a wooden box. "Here, we found this tucked in the back of the cavern."

Geth raised his eyebrows at the small loot crate, then accepted it. "There must be one in each room." He told Farris.

Opening up the small box, he found a Skill Card and a ring. The Skill Card was another Common "Sight" card. The ring was an uncommon item that gave a 1 Mana per second regen rate.

Geth gave the ring to Zolis, he wanted her to use the Ring of Fire Skill as often as possible. It also made collecting the loot very convenient. Bodies would be burned completely, but the Mana Cores would remain intact.

Filthy had reached Level 20, Zolis was Level 21, and Geth was over halfway to 24. "Hulk, come here real quick."

Hulk jogged over and stood before him with his hands behind his back. Geth shook his head at the guy's antics.
