Chapter 11: What a tough day.
After returning home from the headquarters, I looked at the clock and saw 3 pm. I didn't realize that time was going by so quickly.
I went to take a shower and went back into my room. For now, I will aim to finish as much endless mode as I can, get stronger, and go to the dungeons to get money for my mom. I'm not sure how, but I'll ask Anya and the others.
Before going into the endless, I checked my status.
[Dendi:
LVL: 5
ATK: 75-87 dmg + 20
MS: 3.5 m/s
AS: 1.34s - 0.1s
DEF: 26% + 10%
RES: 25%
880/880 HP <3.2 hp/s>
510/510 MP <1.8 mp/s>]
I guess this is enough.
[Endless: Stage 3]
[Would you like to enter? YES/NO]
[YES]
I got teleported into a forest again. It seemed like it looked familiar with the same scene where I fought the treants.
[Stage 3: Starting in 15 seconds]
Warmed and stretched up, I'm ready.
[Stage 3: Starting in 0 seconds]
[Angry Bear:
HP: 450
MP: None]
There were four big bears, 20 meters in front of me. All four of them had X white marks on their chest, and their skin looked brownish.
They charged at me, and I shot all of them. After the first three shots, the [Reaper Scythe] skill was activated by my [Magus] talent, which, of course, doesn't consume any mana.
After killing them with this combo, I got a bit relaxed, thinking that it was the last bear anyway. However, I was taken aback when the bear charged up onto me faster than the previous bears. Did I shoot the arrow, and how lucky was I? The [Magus] talent activated, and the bear's movement was stopped by [Reaper Scythe] just a few meters away.
After that, I rested for 1 minute before another wave of bears spawned.
It was the same [Angry Bear] monster, so I repeated the same strategy, and they all died in less than a minute, even though it was exhausting to keep running and shooting like this.
After they died, I was teleported back to my room, indicating the stage end of the stage.
[EXP: 380/600] <+280>
[Gold: 1710] <+500]
Nice. That's plenty of gold. I planned to save this gold to buy [Moon Shard] later on from the [Shop].
[Moon Shard (-0.5s attack speed, consume to gain -0.25s and [Night Vision <Passive>] Skill) <4000 gold>]
So, 4000 gold is a lot. But I was doing just fine back then without receiving any damage, so I guess I could save up. Even if there's a difficult stage, I could've just used [Shop] inside the dungeons or endless mode to buy a powerup item.
Besides that, let's have a look at the [Aura] cosmetic shop.
[Cosmetic Shop > Aura:
> Demon Eater (Creates a bright red flame with a pitch-black outer aura, affects all wearables) <$30>
> Frost Avalanche (Creates a bright blue ice-crystal particle around you, affects all wearables) <$25>
> Manifold Paradox (Creates a neon blue with dark blue aura, provides an after effect image on attack) <$45)
> etc]
I wasn't planning to buy any Auras but damn, do they look flashy. If this were in the game, people would immediately send me a friend request to look at my aura after finishing the game.
I guess I'll buy this when I'm rich. Let's have a look at the other sections;
[Cosmetic Shop > Hair
> Goku Hair (Sharp pointy big hairs pointing upwards) <$5>
> Saitama Hair (No Hair) <$2>
> etc]
OK, that's not cool. I like my current hair better. Let's stop snooping around the cosmetics area. It's been 5 minutes of rest, time to continue my endless mode.
[Endless: Stage 4]
[Would you like to enter? YES/NO]
[YES]
This time, they entered a graveyard.
[Stage 4: Starting in 15 seconds]
[Stage 4: Starting in 0 seconds]
The timer ends, and 20 zombies pop up. Oh, they look cute. They are pretty small, around the size of a toddler but with bald hair, black eyes, limp bodies, and pale grey skin. But they do seem to be quite fast, so I'll kill them quickly.
[Zombie:
HP: 50/50
MP: None
Skills:
> Bite (each attack slows movement by 1%, stacks indefinitely)]
I shot an arrow, and five zombies died, OK that was quick, Another five died, and another 5. But they just kept spawning.
One minute passed. I've killed around 100 zombies by now. They kept on spawning. Is there a condition to end this stage? From the game I played, there should be a [Tombstone] somewhere.
And there it was, the Tombstone, right before my eyes. It was so big I thought it was a decoration.
[Tombstone
HP: 1000/1000
Skills:
> Spawn Zombie (passively spawns a maximum of 20 zombies every 5 seconds)]
OK, I shot the Tombstone, over and over again. Of course, since this is not a unit but a building, my [Reaper Scythe ] skill is unusable. During that period, I received around 50 zombie bites.
[Dendi
HP: 675/880 <3.0 hp/s>
MP: 510/510]
As soon as the Tombstone was down, the stage ended. That was dangerous.
[EXP: 180/720] <+400>
[Gold: 2310] <+600]
[LVL 5 -> LVL 6]
It seems I leveled up. I checked my stats.
[Dendi
ATK: 79-91 dmg + 20
MS: 3.5 m/s
AS: 1.31s - 0.1s
DEF: 29% + 10%
RES: 25%
920/920 HP <3.4 hp/s>
550/550 MP <2.0 mp/s>]
Not bad. A few seconds after that, a new window popped up.
