Reaper's Resurgence: A System Reset

But before I land in a pool of poison, I manage to activate Quantum Echo, making another burst happen right from its back, following which the creature\'s connecting point between its upper and lower body finally rips in two. Its upper body then lands on the ground right when my vision is covered in poison from landing in a pond of poison.

I let out a scream of pain while also teleporting up into the air and then teleporting again to the side out of the pool before collapsing onto the ground while coughing out the poison that had gotten into my mouth.

Despite my pain and coughing, I raise my head to look at the boss, strictly because it hasn\'t given me any messages about defeating it yet. Then my eyes widen in shock at the sight of the upper body\'s eyes having gone dark while a new head grows out of the lower body. One much more fitting for a scorpion, basically making the monster nothing more than a really large scorpion now.

A really large and really angry scorpion at that.

The monster lets out a loud screech to display its rage before charging at me with a much faster speed than before. But at the same time, I can\'t help but notice a faint red light coming from underneath its purple carapace. One that\'s throbbing.

I narrow my eyes while using Quantum Reversal to reverse the damages that I took while in the pool of poison, making me choke out another scream before I manage to climb to my feet. And as I do so, I glance down at my armor, finding it to be in much better shape than I was expecting.

Guess it has a much stronger resistance to poison than I thought.

The place the tail impacted me is pretty badly damaged though. Right where my pauldrons are. Pauldrons that are now dented inwards pretty badly.

I focus on the charging scorpion again before beginning round two.

In a Dungeon in Tutorial Block #1

Lucas coughs out a mouthful of blood when he slams into the wall of the throne room, only to shoot straight back to his feet with his sword tightly held in his hand as he faces the ten hobgoblins and the goblin king behind them standing next to the large throne. The king stands at his full height of three meters and slams his large, royal gold staff into the ground, sending a wave of golden magic through the hall, empowering each of the hobgoblins. Meanwhile the hobgoblins are all leveled in the low to mid-nineties, each sitting at five to ten levels above Lucas who is only level eighty-five.

I\'ve always hated goblins.

The Hound scowls at the hobgoblins and the goblin king before sweeping his hand out in front of him and sending a ball of black flames straight towards the hobgoblins. But the fireball is significantly weakened the moment it reaches the golden light, following which two hobgoblins counter it by swinging their own polearms at the thing, slicing through the fireball in the process before they continue marching towards him.

So Lucas stomps one of his feet on the ground, making a wave of shadows envelop him, following which he appears in the shadow of one of the hobgoblins. And without giving the hobgoblin a chance to block, he flips his sword around and draws it straight across the hobgoblin\'s throat, kicking the monster away to join over a dozen other hobgoblin corpses lying to the sides of the throne room.

Just nine more remaining, then I can finally deal with the king.

In a Dungeon in Tutorial Block #2

Aurora lets out a short yell as she jumps down from the large platform straight towards the lava below before raising her bow and shooting out an arrow attached to a rope that digs into the side of the volcano\'s crater over a dozen meters above the lava\'s surface. Then she uses a skill to pull her straight to the side of the crater where she begins firing arrows off at the large kobold king standing close to the edge of the platform but not too close. But the elite kobolds next to it simply throw fireballs to meet her arrows, blocking the majority of them in the process.

So Aurora begins running across the side of the crater while firing more arrows from different angles, all while dodging the return arrows sent towards her by the elite kobold archers.

And when she makes it far enough away that the kobolds begin following her around the edge of the platform, she finally targets one of the chains of the platform near them, firing an arrow of ice that explodes the moment it reaches the chain, freezing it over. And thanks to the sudden shift in temperature, following which it melts again and she fires another arrow at it, the chain completely snaps, making the large platform tilt.

Two of the elite kobolds end up falling off of the platform into the lava below thanks to it while the others all manage to retain their balance.

The boss of the dungeon on the other hand simply ignores it, the monster managing to continue standing without a change to his balance at all.

Annoying.

Aurora looks around before continuing to run across the side of the crater.

That could work.

In a different Dungeon in Tutorial Block #2

Leif stares ahead with a slightly annoyed expression on his face as his golden hair is blown by the wind for some reason filling the vast hall filled with thousands of weak undead skeletons. But he doesn\'t bother with the skeletons, simply walking through the cannon fodder while leaving his passive Holy Aura to burn them all with holy flames without the man lifting a single finger.

Shouldn\'t be too long now before they start rising in level.

The man has been walking for the entire time since entering the hall, with the exception of when he first entered it and had attempted to run through only for his Holy Aura to prove not enough to deal with the monsters.

At least I should reach level 100 by the time I get to whatever is summoning these pests.

And so he continues walking through the horde of level 1 through 20 undead monsters.
