“Activate!”

The orange card shined brightly as it disappeared, and suddenly

Fate’s Aid (Legendary) has been activated. You now have a 40% chance to deal 750% damage for 120 seconds.

“Wind Arrow!” Ning immediately started attacking.

The moment the Wind Arrow took effect, the entire battlefield took damage. With Ning’s 105 INT, each of that arrows dealt about 60 damage, bringing the total damage for everything in the area to about 180 damage.

Then, he hit once, successfully hitting a critical strike, dealing 322 damage.

Then Ning used the Poison Spore skill. The skill dealt about 10% of his INT as damage per second.

Because of their magic resistance, the many Vileshrooms only took 8 damage per second.

With over 25 monsters in total here, the entire crowd took 200 damage in just the first instance of the poison spore.

Before the next instance came along, everyone but the boss was dead. And even the boss had taken over 700 damage already.

Without any hesitation, Ning rushed at the boss and started hitting it once more.

Every 3 or 4 hits, he managed to hit a critical strike, far better than the last times when his LUK stat was lower. As such, in such a couple of hits, he brought the boss down to his 50% stage where the bullet hell began. 𝞸𝗏𝓁xt.𝐜𝓞𝑀

Still, Ning would rather take the damage than letting the time run any further.

He continued attacking, dealing either 45 or 335 damage each time. In what felt like not even a minute, Ning successfully beat the boss.

Congratulations! You have defeated the Shroom King

Clear time: 5 minutes 42 seconds

Congratulations! You have beat the solo clear record. Would you like to publicly announce your record?

Ning fell to the ground in a mix of fatigue and happiness. He laughed loudly when he realized that he actually did it.

“Yes, Of course,” Ning told the game. “Why else would I have tried so hard if I wasn’t even going to let other people know what I did?”

‘IMMORTAL ENERGY’ is now the fastest person to clear the Vileshroom Dungeon.

“Hmm, that’s not bad,” Ning thought. Yet the notifications kept on coming.

No more notifications came after this.

Ning looked at the final notification and felt his eyes go wide in shock. ‘A skill? I got a skill book!’ he thought with a surprised look on his face.

He had been meaning to get a skill book, but good ones had their cost in gold. For a man who only had enough materials to sell to receive maybe 2 gold coins, that was a lot of money.

There were only 4 different slots for him to learn a skill, so he couldn’t waste his time on a book unless it was good.

Although he would get a chance to unlearn a skill every once in a while from a Skill clear stone that had a very small chance of dropping.

“I hope it’s something good,” Ning thought and brought out the book.

Seed Bullet:

Skill Rank: Common

Type: Active

Spews out 5 supersonic seeds that deal 80% of STR as physical damage each.

Cooldown: 20 seconds

Manacost: 80

“Of course,” Ning thought, a little disappointed. “I should have known that it would be this. What else did I expect to get from these monsters?” he thought to himself with a sigh.

He opened his profile page to see that he had about 61 total STR stats. Which meant each of his attacks would deal about 48 damage, for a total of 240 damage.

That was nearly 3 times as much as what his raw damage would be normally. For 20 seconds cooldown, Ning wasn’t sure if it was worth it.

“Shit! Whatever, I will get that skill clear stone if I ever need one,” Ning thought and learned the book.

Congratulations, You have learned Seed Bullet.

1 Skill Slot used. 3 Remaining.

Ning equipped his title, and also put on his Mushroom armor, with shoulder pads that looked like a mushroom head. He sighed and shook his head when he realized he looked like a person that was growing mushrooms all over him.

‘I’m so close to leveling up,’ Ning thought when he saw his Exp. He was close to reaching Level 18, so he decided to go through the dungeon again.

He had made a plan that no matter what if he couldn’t make a record in 3 tries, he would leave. However, now that he had done it, he felt like going back on his words and doing it twice again.

After all, he really wanted level 20 before he left this city. So, Ning walked through the portal that had appeared and…

“Is that him?”

“That’s him!”

Ning curiously turned around to see the Fire mage from his earlier party pointing at him. Not only her, everyone suddenly got rowdy and started running towards him.

Ning was ready to attack when they all started speaking at once.

“Brother? Are you Immortal Energy?”

“Was it you who cleared the dungeon?”

“How did you do it?”

“Please tell us what glitch did you exploit?”

“Do you plan on uploading your run online?”

“If you didn’t cheat, then you must prove it!”

Ning looked at the crazed demons with nothing but anger, jealousy, or envy in their eyes.

‘Damn, no wonder the last guy chose to leave his record private,’ Ning thought to himself. ‘I probably should have done the same.’
