The Dungeon System
108.stage 3 part 1

Adam's mind was full of thoughts and knowledge that he had accumulated and discovered ever since he was integrated with the system and enlightened on cultivation.

From his training and increasing mastery of basic defense techniques, Adam finally reached a conclusion on how the system represented External Cultivators and Internal Cultivators and their differences in statistical terms.

[External Cultivators have Resistance and EESP statistics that are unique to them, while Internal Cultivators have Intelligence and IESP statistics that are unique to them. Internal Cultivators can increase their resilience using their IESP through techniques, which is an advantage they have, but External Cultivators increase their resilience as they cultivate and can improve it even more through techniques. Internal Cultivators could use their Internal Energy outside of their bodies, allowing them to use long-range attacks using energy, but External Cultivators could not. Both types of cultivators could increase their Speed and Strength using their energy, but External Cultivators always had External Energies circulating all over their bodies,

So the Strength and Speed stat was a measure of the strength and speed that a cultivator could display using the cultivation and energy they had and because I had a unique constitution, it was only possible, it applies differently to me and I have the benefits of Internal and External Cultivators.

Without Internal Energy being circulated to improve their bodies, they would only be slightly above average compared to ordinary humans in terms of physical strength. Both types of cultivators had similar HP, which represented their vitality, their recovery speed and the total amount of damage they could receive, along with special stats: Wisdom, Charisma, and Fortune. Special statistics do not improve with cultivation and require special circumstances to be improved and most of the time is determined from birth] summarizes Adam on himself who after training the techniques of both types of cultivation finally fully comprehends the difference between them.

[But the ferocious beasts inside the dungeon did not match that summary and they were unique and seemed to be created and programmed by the system] adding Adam to himself as he had yet to dispel his curiosity.

The savage beasts inside the dungeon, which he had encountered so far, had Resistance and Intelligence stats, which showed that they had the characteristics of Internal and External Cultivators, however, they did not have any Luck stats, either, Charisma or Wisdom and they also do not have IESP or EESP.

Adam could understand why they did not have the statistics of Luck, Charisma or Wisdom because they did not have free will and were programmed to have hostility towards Adam, however, the beast that has no IESP and or EESP confuses Adam and it makes no sense to him.

{There are many things that the system cannot tell the host about the basement and other things that the host is not yet ready to know. However, I can tell you that the savage beasts in the basement have unlimited energy and do not have a certain amount of IESP or EESP. That doesn't mean that they can use abilities that go beyond their LVL and they still have limited abilities, but they will never run out of stamina} says the system.

[I appreciate the information] thanking Adam who was pleased with the new attitude of the system, however, he was also a little wary of the advantage the beast had from him.

After he cleared his mind and gathered his thoughts together, Adam was happy with the amount he knew, but he knew there was much more to explore and discover. However for the time being he was satisfied as he set off towards the center of the rainforest, after he recovered using the Ethereal Recovery Skill, ready to finish the floor.

[Can I activate more than one E+ Ranked Monkey Fur Coat at a time] asked Adam who wanted to ascertain if his plan to increase his strength was possible.

{Yes it is possible for the host to do so, but it will overwhelm the body of the host, who cannot handle much of the energy and power that is above the host LVL, and the system will not recommend the host to do so in fact} system advice.

Knowing that it was only the Underground Prison Form, Adam was not too worried about the counterattack, but given how painful the counterattack on his soul and spirit was when he used the Blood Lust Characteristic extension, Adam was not too worried about the counterattack, but given how painful the counterattack was when he used the Blood Lust Characteristic extension, the Blood Lust Characteristic, he knew he had to be careful.

He also knew how close the Form Dungeon was to its original body and he was not entirely sure what exactly it was. Until he had a clear understanding of how the system worked and everything about the Dungeon that provided it for hunting, Adam had to be careful.

He knew that by jumping over a level by defeating the Boss Beast and moving straight to the next Floor, he lost the gold he could gain by hunting until he reached LVL 20, he lost, but he felt that increasing his current strength was more important.

Adam knew that the gold he had missed by jumping over levels by defeating the Boss Beast, which would only give him lost EXP and system points equivalent to that much EXP, it could easily be obtained in the future as he increased his strength and rose to a higher level.the floor, and he was more focused on increasing his current strength.

With the mistrust and prudence he had towards Elizabeth and especially her cunning and intelligent subordinate, Jaspar, Adam knew that only with unparalleled strength could he truly feel at ease and relaxed.

He was not sure what their cultivation level was like, but he was sure it was at least at the level of an Advanced Cultivator, who was a realm above the Beginner/Mortal Realm at the moment where he was.

He was only close to rank 2, which was close to LVL 20, but there were still 9 more ranks in the Beginner Realm and he had to surpass LVL 100 to become an Advanced Cultivator. It was very far away and he had no idea how long it would take him to reach that level, but until then, he had to work hard to achieve it and try to avoid unwanted attention.

On the way to the center, Adam picked up every monkey beast he encountered easily and he was curious and interested to see exactly how the center of the Floor was laid out and what kind of Boss Beast he was about to encounter.

He also needed to make sure not to lose consciousness in the battle against the Boss Beast like he did on the 1st Floor, otherwise, he wouldn't be able to obtain an incredible Boss Beast race that would be so valuable to him.

If he used all 5 of his calls along with two defensive techniques, he would run out of IESP within 2 minutes, but he still had almost all of his EESP.

However, Adam knew how weak and lethargic he felt when one of his energy storages was depleted and he was unsure whether using all of his strength at once for a short period of time would be the right tactic to fight back his opponent.

[I'll see what I'm really up against, then I'll decide how to deal with it] decide Adam.

As he got closer and closer to the center of the rainforest, there were more and more monkey beasts that also increased in strength.

Adam tried to avoid them or beat them using minimal energy, but there were so many of them that it became harder to do so.

[It was exactly as I thought, This floor is like the 0th Floor and there is a beast civilization in the middle and the Boss Beast is probably a kind of powerful Primate Beast] gathering Adam.

[The system respawns these animals after they are defeated] asked Adam.

{After the host enters Stage 3, which also has a Boss Beast at the end, the savage beast that the host defeated will not reappear when the host is in the basement. However, if the host left then returned, the beast would reappear in the same way as the host Underground Prison Form would recover} answered the system.

With that in mind, he knew that he would have to storm into the monster headquarters to keep them from reappearing, as if he continued hunting at Stage 2, instead, there will be an unlimited number of monkey monsters.

However, unlike on the 0th Floor, he did not have 3 lives and he could not be as reckless as back then. But Adam has massively increased his strength since then and is much better at fighting and hunting as he runs past the monster monster chasing him and enters stage 3.

Stage 3 of the 2nd Floor had a radius of 2 km from the center and was filled with monkey beasts that were all LVL 16 or higher. The base of the beast was just a large group of monkey beasts in the middle that had created houses and walls, and, while in the middle he could see a huge structure made of wood where he assumed he would find the Boss Beast.

[I have to choose as many of these monkey monsters as I can because they will interfere when I face the Boss Beast, then I will try to find an empty place to recover before fighting against the Boss Beast] Adam's plan that felt adrenaline rush through his veins as the monkey beast swung towards him.
