You call this magic?

Ais is different. She is a true genius. Compared with previous expeditions, she spends more time in a daze, but her progress is even more outrageous than before.

In Finn's words, she seemed to have an epiphany.

Not reconciled.

Bert was very unwilling.

He was unwilling to accept that he could not keep up with Ai Si's speed of growth.

He was also unwilling to accept that it was not him who made Ais become like this.

This complicated thought even affected his hunting of the minotaur this time.

Fortunately, there are not many adventurers in the upper area now. There is no benefit in staying in the upper area in the evening. It will be night soon and humans need to sleep. After all, a safe place is only a few steps away.

"Damn it, why can't these minotaurs just stand there and wait for me to kick them to death?!"

As another minotaur turned to ashes before his eyes, Bert calculated that there was probably only one left.

"Thank you, thank you, thank you for saving me..."

So annoying, these weaklings...

Looking at the novice adventurers who were thanking him profusely, Bert felt annoyed from the bottom of his heart.

But after all, this time it wasn't the newcomers' fault anyway, so he could only angrily yell, "Stop talking nonsense and get off the ground!"

"Yes Yes Yes Yes!"

Looking at the newcomer's back as he ran away, Bert snorted coldly and immediately set out to hunt down the last minotaur.

If I were faster than Ais, this group of minotaurs would not be able to threaten any newcomer at all.

Too weak, I am still too weak.

The upper area is already narrow, and compared to the deeper level, it doesn't take Burt long to visit them all at his speed.

Finally, he found the last minotaur.

However, when he saw the minotaur, he noticed that behind the minotaur, a white-haired boy holding a dagger was slowly approaching.

Their eyes met, for just a moment.

His movements were quite rough, and he didn't even have any armor that could withstand a blow from the Minotaur's axe. Even the hand holding the knife was shaking slightly.

No matter from which angle you look at it, this newcomer is a waste in Bert's eyes.

But the only difference is his eyes.

He stared firmly at the target, holding his breath with almost no leakage, and his footsteps went completely unnoticed by the level 2 minotaur.

Bert stopped in his tracks. For some unknown reason, he wanted to continue watching.

There was even an absurd feeling that the boy was much more determined than he was now.

Finally, the white-haired boy approached to a distance of two meters behind the Minotaur.

Generally speaking, if both sides are at the same level, this is the distance at which a one-hit kill is certain.

So the young man took action. He jumped up at a speed that the Minotaur had no time to react. He used the long handle of the Minotaur's hand axe as a pedal, jumped high to the top of the Minotaur's head, and then used his feet to ride hard on the back of the Minotaur's neck.

At the same time, the dagger in his hand pierced through one of the minotaur's eyes without hesitation.

The minotaur, who realized the situation belatedly, let out a crazy howl of pain, and the whole bull began to struggle desperately. However, the young man on top of his head refused to let go, and even desperately pulled out the dagger and stabbed it into the other eye again.

“No, no matter who it is, come and defeat this guy ah ah ah ah——”

Bert's face darkened. Didn't you just see me?

At this moment, Bert seemed to see another figure from Bell's thin body, and he couldn't help but gritted his teeth.

So, people like you who are so weak and can't see the situation clearly but still try to act tough are the most fucking annoying! !

"Hold on tight!" With a wild howl, the white wolf rushed towards the minotaur who could no longer see the surrounding direction like lightning. With a kick bathed in flames, it instantly blew the minotaur to pieces, and the minotaur turned into black dust and disappeared.

As a magic stone fell to the ground, Bert quickly grabbed Bell's shirt and lifted him up to the ground with one hand.

"Ahhhhhhh... Hey, I'm saved?" Bell screamed halfway before realizing that the Minotaur seemed to be gone. He just collapsed and let Bert hold him in his hand. "Well, well, thank you for saving me."

Bert just looked at Bell's embarrassed face, his eyes about to spit out fire: "Kid, what's your name?"

He didn't know why he asked. Under normal circumstances, he would have started to scold the brat for being so weak and asking why he didn't run away. But today, he suddenly didn't want to do that.

"Eh?" Bell was a little confused. Before he realized the other party was asking his name, he pointed at himself nervously, "Me, me?"

"Are there any other people here besides you and me?" Bert's mouth twitched, veins on his head popped out, and he looked like his temper was about to flare up again.

"Bell, Bell Crane!" Bell was a person who could perceive the emotions of others. Seeing that his savior was about to explode, although he didn't know why, he apologized first, "Yes, I'm sorry!"

"I'll remember you. Get lost. We can't guarantee the upper floors are safe yet. A small-timer like you will only be a hindrance here!"

Burt threw Bell towards the exit, turned and left, leaving Bell with only his tall back.

Although the minotaurs have theoretically been killed, what if there are other abnormal situations?

Bell fell backwards, but he was not as panicked as one might have thought.

Perhaps he sensed that the man's words were insincere.

It's time to go home.

……

Bert cleared all the monsters he encountered along the way, checked again in reverse, and after confirming that there were no monsters like minotaurs that were beyond the current level, he met up with his companions from Loki's clan on the twelfth floor.

"Well, Bert, no casualties?"

Finn asked at the first moment.

"No, the little guys run very fast."

Bert tutted his words and returned to the team with his hands in his pockets: "Hurry back, you're tired."

"Ok?"

At this moment, Finn seemed to see something else in Burt's face.

However, he did not ask it immediately. After all, Bert's impetuous mood had basically disappeared.

He had been planning to do some ideological work on Bert at night, but he didn't expect that by hunting down the Minotaur, most of the problems would be solved.

So…what exactly happened?

Volume 2 Dungeon Encounters (I): Chapter 27 Do You Want to Surpass Bert Rocca?

"You mean, a Minotaur has reached the fifth floor?"

Ethan rubbed his chin and looked at Bell's face, which looked a little embarrassed but not frightened at all. He roughly knew what was going on.

This should be the event that influenced the life of Bell Crane in the original work, that is, the Sword Lady saved Bell who was being chased by the Minotaur.

However, it seems that everything has changed under my influence.

First of all, Bell did not just run away, but bravely swung his sword at the Minotaur and successfully caused great damage to it.

Secondly, it was not Sword Princess who found Bell from Loki's family, but Bert.

Like Fiora, Bert is also at level 5, and his attack on Minotaur is also a dimensionality reduction attack.

But, Bert's words...

He immediately lowered his voice and asked, "Did that guy say anything bad to you?"

If there is, then Ethan will have to come and seek revenge. Regarding the last attack by Sword Lady, although Sword Lady is pretty and Ethan is generous enough and doesn't want to break up, sooner or later Loki, the old silver coin, will have to pay for it in other ways.

"No, no, Mr. Bert is a very nice person." Bell seemed to have realized what his leader was trying to do, and quickly waved his hands to defend Bert.

Then, Bell recounted what happened at that time while recalling it.

"Mr. Burt only asked us to leave quickly for our own good. In fact, it was Mr. Burt who saved my life!"

After listening to Bell's recollection of the situation, Ethan's face was even more surprised.

Is this still the same Burt Rocca?

"Well, forget it, let's leave it at that." Ethan didn't know what was wrong with Bert, so he didn't intend to pursue it. He waved to Bell and said, "Go to Lily's place to get a new set of clothes, take a shower, eat something, and go to bed. I'll give you a day off tomorrow. Rest for a day."

It's time to give Bell some useful magic.

The faster Bell becomes stronger, the more helpers Ethan will have going deep down, and he will not be stingy in this regard.

People like Bell will wholeheartedly help whoever treats him well, without having to worry about betrayal.

"Yes, I'll go now!" Bell turned around and ran away.

It can be seen that this boy is in a good mood.

After seeing Bell off, Ethan yawned, went into his notebook, and continued to tinker with his stuff.

Specifically, it is the possibility of trying new magic based on existing magic.

The dungeon is a very interesting place. Different floors can present completely different appearances. Adventurers must adapt to the environment and prepare different strategies for different terrains.

However, this would severely hinder the adventurers, burdening them with supplies and making it impossible for them to venture too deep into the desert at once, even if they still had the energy to spare.

Even if you try to destroy the floors between levels by brute force, the dungeon will repair itself and restore the altered terrain to its original state.

Adventurers who want to conquer a dungeon must abide by its rules.

So...why?

The dungeon is strong enough because it is the one that makes the rules.

So, are there any loopholes in this rule?

Ethan was thinking about this question.

At this moment, he fixed his eyes on a magic.

【Magic of Flower Fields】

This is the favorite magic of Flillian's master, the great magician Flame, and it is also the magic that inspired Flame to become a magician.

Essentially, this magic is about changing the surrounding environment.

If this theory is valid, then why can't I conjure up other things?

For example...grains and fruits are also plants and are also a form of supplement.

Fulilian said that you can rely on your imagination to create a certain kind of flower, but you must see it with your own eyes before you can imagine it.

In other words, the test is still imagination...Okay.

Changing flowers into other plants is both simple and difficult. After all, this is a magic that requires a high degree of completion. After Flame perfected it, he can only use the power of notes if he wants to make changes. Now he is processing it in an orderly manner.

Going a step further, it could be changed into other types of plants, and maybe even things that are not plants could be conjured up, which would then be another kind of magic.

That is the true meaning of "magic that changes the environment".

If this magic works, the adventurers' speed in conquering dungeons will be greatly increased.

……

The next day, Ethan called Bell to the training ground alone.

Having a holiday means you don’t have to go to the dungeon and play around, it doesn’t mean you don’t have to study.

So, Ethan gave [Assassin's Footwork], [Transform Invisible], and [Luring Phantom] to Bell.

The effect is to walk silently, become invisible, and create a brief illusion, which is enough time for an assassin to kill the enemy.

Of course, if he can't kill with one blow, the rest of the game will inevitably enter garbage time, which requires his close combat ability.

Ethan's original intention was not to say that Bell could not learn hand-to-hand combat, but that he could not rely on hand-to-hand combat in all situations. Judging from Bell's dungeon breakthrough process in the past few days, he actually did so.

Good understanding.

If a fatal blow fails, it is more appropriate to engage in hand-to-hand combat. At that time, the distance between him and the target will be close enough, and he can launch a thunder attack quickly, accurately and ruthlessly. If he really cannot win, he can try to escape with one blow after becoming invisible.

Just give him clear arrangements.

He found a group of clan elders and asked them to give Bell a hard training, and then Ethan went back to continue studying magic.

The sooner this magic could be completed, the sooner he could attempt a solo expedition.

It was soon evening, and Ethan arrived at the training ground. Bell was being carried by the old men and was about to be sent to rest.
