Can Monster Talents Be Copied?
Li Yu was beyond annoyed with these guys. He said with utter disdain, "Hurry up and get started. What's there to be afraid of? Are you all being so fussy?"
These words immediately drew glares from Asuna and the other two. "You're the one being dramatic! You don't understand how girls feel when they see these rats, do you?"
"You deal with them, we'll go kill those rabbits and dogs!" Asuna said, and rushed out without waiting for Li Yu's agreement.
She simply didn't want to fight the rats today. It didn't matter who came; just looking at them was incredibly creepy. Who wanted to fight these creatures?
Kato Megumi and Yukino didn't say anything, but silently followed Asuna out, leaving the fat rats for Li Yu to deal with.
Li Yu was speechless at what they were doing. But Li Yu looked at the rats and thought, "They're really ugly..." and his magic wand appeared.
"Sorry, I don't like you either, so die under the roar of gunfire!" As Li Yu's voice fell, the Magic Gatling was activated!
Magic bullets were fired from Li Yu's True Magic as if they were free, accurately hitting the rats that were charging at him.
Because of the terrifying penetrating power of True Magic, many of Li Yu's attacks directly pulverized the rats on the spot and then slammed them against the cave walls.
Boom boom boom~" Explosions came from this area, and the ground began to shake, with some smoke and dust falling down, giving the impression that it was about to collapse at any moment.
Li Yu was startled by what he saw, but he quickly remembered that the Dungeon could indeed collapse; after all, hadn't Bell and the others fallen from this level?
Thinking of this, Li Yu could only silently change his True Magic, switching to ordinary magic bullets to attack, only needing to eliminate the rats remotely.
Although these rats' obese bodies seemed to offer incredible defense, they were actually quite weak; Li Yu could easily take them down with ordinary magic bullets.
Or perhaps it's because Li Yu's magic power is too strong. After all, Li Yu's magic power Kazuma have been fused together, and the True Magic he uses is stronger than that of others.
For the next half hour, Li Yu and his group were like monsters who had stumbled upon a den of monsters, with wave after wave of attacks spawning. Their battles didn't stop for more than five minutes at a time.
As the new wave of monsters was dealt with, Li Yu let out a breath of stale air. Looking at the fallen Magic Stone on the ground, Li Yu couldn't help but say, "It's really hard to keep up. Before, I was complaining about the lack of monsters, but now they're too densely packed."
Did they just send all the monsters they encountered coming down from above to them at once? Is that even possible?
Hearing Li Yu's words, Asuna took out a bottle of Red Potion, gulped it down, and said, "Let's recover first, it'll probably refresh again soon."
She hadn't replenished her supplies since then, but after using a bottle of Red Potion, she immediately felt much better. The sweetness and strawberry flavor of the Red Potion also improved her mood.
Asuna and Yukino silently took out their Red Potion and started drinking them, but Li Yu didn't, since this amount of consumption was nothing to Li Yu.
He had been sensing the situation in this area, and only after confirming that there wouldn't be any monsters spawning for the time being did Li Yu speak up, "We can recover now and collect the Magic Stone and materials. They won't be respawning for a while."
After speaking, Li Yu ignored the three of them and activated the mark on his hand, then spoke into the public channel, "How are you all? Is anyone injured?"
Li Yu's voice was instantly transmitted to the ears of the students active on the sixteenth floor. Upon hearing Li Yu's words, some students who had not yet encountered combat hurriedly responded.
"The battle has just ended, and no one in Xia Yu's team was injured!" Xia Yu responded to Li Yu immediately, followed by the other classmates.
"No one in Liu Hui's team is injured!" "No one in Liang Feifan's team is injured either." "No one in Ye Zi's team is injured either." Voices came one after another, and they were all the voices of team leaders.
The other students tacitly refrained from disturbing him. Only after all the teams had spoken did Li Yu slowly say, "Understood. Be careful, everyone. If you encounter any rooms or similar places, do your best. The monsters spawn very quickly inside."
After confirming that none of them were injured, Li Yu gave them a word of advice and a reminder that Li Yu were currently in a room-like location.
The terrain is flat, and there's only one path forward, which is why monsters spawn so frequently.
As Li Yu's voice faded, Asuna and the others realized that they were indeed in the same room. The three of them immediately understood.
Upon hearing Li Yu's words, the others quickly responded, indicating that they understood and would keep Li Yu's reminder firmly in mind should they encounter such a situation.
I doubt they'll back down. They've all fought the monsters on this level before, so they know what they're made of and are confident they can handle them.
After ending his call with his classmates, Li Yu told them to start packing up. In just over half an hour, Li Yu and the others had collected a considerable amount of Magic Stone.
Besides these, there were also quite a few materials. Looking at the fallen materials, Li Yu said, "These materials are enough to remelt your weapons. I'll upgrade your weapons when we get back."
Upon hearing Li Yu's words, the three of them immediately brightened up. Naturally, there was no problem. Asuna immediately chimed in, "The materials were dropped by all four of us. We'll calculate how much your share will cost, and I'll pay you!"
She brought it up first to avoid putting Li Yu in a difficult position later. After all, they couldn't just leave empty-handed after asking Li Yu to help them upgrade their weapons, could they?
"There's no need. As we agreed before, whoever needs these things can use them, and the remaining materials can be sold. That's how I got my staff before, wasn't it?" Li Yu politely declined Asuna's idea.
In his view, there was no need to do this; the previous allocation could have been followed, and whoever was capable could use it.
Hearing Li Yu say this, the three exchanged glances, thought for a moment, and agreed. "Let's do it that way," they said, "But the others will have to pay us later."
Not wanting to get Li Yu for nothing, Asuna made a decision: she would handle the matter herself.
Immediately, everyone began cleaning up the battlefield, gathering all the Magic Stone that needed to be collected and putting them into Asuna's Space Backpack.
Although Li Yu's Space Ring can hold things, it's better to keep them in Asuna's Space Backpack for now. When they go out, they can just take them to the guild to exchange for Valis.
After finishing up, everyone rested on the spot. Based on Li Yu's guess, monsters wouldn't spawn here anytime soon, so they decided to relax and rest.
Li Yu's perception ability was always active. He could see everything happening within a kilometer radius with God perspective, and as his strength continued to increase, this perception ability also extended further and further.
According to Li Yu's guess, if he continues like this, his perception ability will likely increase tenfold by the time he reaches the Fifth Tier.
This is a bit outrageous. As Li Yu pondered these things, he slowly recovered. He didn't need to drink any medicine; after a short rest, his condition returned to its peak.
At the same time, Li Yu began to ponder a question: could he copy the talents of monsters? If he could, then there would be quite a few valuable monsters in the Dungeon.
For example, the regenerative ability of the 37th floor master—if one could replicate it... Also, there are some special abilities in this world, like the True Magic to resurrect people?
Li Yu began to seriously consider the many local specialties of this world and how to obtain them. If he came to this world and didn't bring back some good things, wouldn't his trip have been in vain?
Just as Li Yu was pondering, the monsters respawned again. Seeing this, Li Yu had no choice but to stop temporarily and begin dealing with the newly spawned monsters.
Let's not think about things that far ahead for now. After all, they arrived in this world before the story even began, and some things haven't even appeared yet.
For example, Bell doesn't seem to be in Orario yet, so let's not think that far ahead for now. At this stage, let's first study whether monster talents can be copied!
Li Yu glanced at the newly spawned monsters and quickly took action. His self-glow fell on the monsters called Hellhound, and upon Kenkeiko," he began to learn their talents.
As Li Yu first activated the Kenkeiko, his brow furrowed slightly. This was somewhat unexpected. Was it not a talent, but rather True Magic True Magic?
Just like when Li Yu used elemental True Magic, this time the copied talent turned into an attribute; could fire True Magic have mutated directly?
However, this also confirmed to Li Yu that he could replicate the monster's talent, and even adjust it according to his own abilities to make it the most suitable for him.
Otherwise, he would probably cause some problems like Principal Hu did. With this discovery, Li Yu was extremely excited. In that case, he would definitely go and check on the floor manager of the 37th floor.
In the following time, Li Yu used his talent to copy the talents of these monsters, confirming that all of these monster talents were useful. However, some monster talents were not very useful, and some were even worse than those that Li Yu copied from his classmates.
So later on, Li Yu gave up and focused on clearing out the monsters instead, continuing until Li Yu phone rang, at which point Li Yu stopped.
Li Yu sheathed his weapon and then said to the three men, who were already panting heavily, "You guys recover a bit, I'll pack up and leave."
The three of them were exhausted. The frequency of battles was too high, and they didn't have much time to rest. Not long after each battle, they would drink a potion to recover and then refresh the battle again.
If it weren't for the Red and Blue Potions, the three of them would have collapsed completely.
Upon hearing Li Yu's words, the three of them sat down on the ground in a very unladylike manner, and then quickly took out medicine to replenish their strength, while Li Yu tidied up the various materials on the ground.
They packed all these things into Asuna's Space Backpack. Now, Li Yu and the others had collected enough materials to forge quite a few weapons.
At this rate, Asuna's Space Backpack might even be full. It's no wonder that people in the Dungeon bring supporters.
Some Magic Stone are even simply discarded because there's simply not enough room to store them all; the amount that falls off is far too much.
After packing their things, Li Yu called to Asuna and the others to leave together, otherwise monsters would spawn here again soon. Hearing this, the three of them hurriedly got up and followed.
Dragging their weary bodies, everyone followed Li Yu towards the meeting place. Asuna looked at Li Yu, who seemed completely unaffected, and couldn't help but say bitterly, "Don't you feel tired?"
Li Yu is just too outrageous! They drank five or six bottles of potions throughout the entire battle, but what about Li Yu? If she remembers correctly, she didn't drink a single Red Potion.
Li Yu even cleaned up the things that had fallen. Isn't that outrageous? Is the difference between people really that big?
"I'm not tired at all. I recover pretty quickly, and I'm even stronger now, aren't I?" Li Yu turned to look at the three exhausted people and smiled.
"Tsk, that's insane. Is it really that ridiculous after the fourth rank?" Yukino didn't understand. It was only First Tier difference, but was the gap between her and Li Yu really that big?
"Perhaps I'm a bit special, after all, my True Qi is just as abundant as my magic power." Li Yu explained with a smile. Indeed, they are the same; both are fused together.
These words immediately drew envy from the three of them. Asuna sighed and couldn't help but say, "I wonder when we'll be able to break through to the fourth rank? We have absolutely no clue about how to reach the fourth rank right now."
Unlike Li Yu, who broke through in a short period of time, they couldn't do that; they hadn't even felt the threshold of the fourth rank yet.
Even Asuna began to wonder if Li Yu would be breaking through to the Fifth Tier by the time they broke through to the fourth rank.
"It should be soon. Once we get back, we'll go find Hestia to update your status. Our stats are different from the people in this world; we'll update them and see what changes." Given their monster-hunting frequency today, updating the stats will probably cause a dramatic change, right?
Hearing Li Yu say this, everyone nodded, hoping it would really make them stronger. If there was no change, it would be truly frustrating.
Then we'll have to rely on ourselves. Although we're tired today, everyone feels that our combat skills have improved a lot, and our True Qi has become more refined. These are things that everyone can clearly feel.
The three followed Li Yu toward the meeting point, encountering monsters that spawned along the way, but Li Yu, who was ahead, easily dealt with them all.
When Li Yu and his group of four arrived at the meeting point, many people were already there. These people all looked tired, and Li Yu even noticed that some of their armor had been attacked.
However, there were no obvious wounds on her body, so it seemed that she had only been attacked. Li Yu did not say anything, and the others greeted her when they saw Li Yu arrive.
"Is everyone alright? Is anyone hurt? Do they need medical treatment?" Li Yu asked the group, mainly because he was afraid they would be embarrassed to say if they were injured.
Upon hearing this, everyone hurriedly shook their heads. Since no one on their side was injured and they were certain there was no problem, Li Yu quietly waited to the side.
Soon after, the others arrived one after another. The first people to return were unharmed, but some of the people who returned later had bandages wrapped around their arms, with bloodstains seeping through them.
"Squad leader, help! Yun Shu is injured!" Xia Yu's eyes lit up when she saw Li Yu there, and she hurriedly shouted. Someone in her team had been bitten by a dog!
Seeing Li Yu now brought her a sense of relief. Li Yu possessed healing True Magic, which could help her wounds heal quickly. Seeing Li Yu filled her with a sense of security!
