While Others Cultivate, I LVL UP In My Sleep Using The Dungeon System

The python with its great speed, that was almost double that of a peak human, was still fast as it slithered to Adam and wrapped around his leg with its long body.

Adam would have been able to easily dodge the python's attempt at wrapping around him, but had recklessly planned to take out the python by attacking its wounds as it attempted to do so. ​​

However, Adam had made a grave mistake at underestimating the python's strength and intelligence.

As it wrapped around Adam's leg, it began to pour more and more strength to the point that Adam felt his leg was going to burst under the pressure and felt his muscles being squeezed and were about to tear.

Each time Adam exhaled, the long python continued to tighten its grip and coil higher up its leg.

His fear of snakes was very hard for Adam to overcome, even with the Hunter's mind, and only after being jolted by the sudden pain in his left leg, did he calm down and realise the mistake he made.

"This isn't a normal python, but one from the dungeon that is extremely powerful" realised Adam as he facepalmed himself.

The python slowly reaching higher towards his crotch area, Adam suddenly became both worried and furious.

"Get the fuck off me" he screamed, worried about his crotch area that held his crown jewels.

He knew it was only a dungeon form that had no effect on his real body, but was still unwilling to allow his most valuable asset to be tainted or destroyed even in the dungeon form.

As it continued to slither upwards and coiling around his leg while tightening its grip, Adam stumbled backwards under the weight, strength and pain that the python was placing on its leg.

Looking eye to eye with the beast it seemed to be ridiculing him with its glaring green eyes that had a black slit.

Its intelligence was obvious to Adam from its eyes, but it merely infuriated him more as he launched his blade towards the python's head.

The python instantly, seeing the attack, hid his head under its coiled body.

Adam's attack struck the python's body, but didn't do any damage, merely leaving a small chip in its scales.

Looking for the injuries that he had caused it, Adam found they were also hidden by his coiled body that continued to tighten and slowly rise up.

Steadying his breath and calming down, Adam began to scour his mind, in the hopes of thinking up another plan to take out the beast.

[The best way for me to deal with a python's grip, from what I have read online, is to grab its head so that it cannot bite me. It also says to take deep and steady breaths, and attack its tail that is the weakest part of its body and has the most thin and frail scales] remembered Adam suddenly.

The python's head was covered and the bite wasn't much of a threat to Adam who had experienced excruciating pain that is incomparable to a mere snake bite, and he had steadied his breathing, leaving him the only option to attack the python's tail.

Screaming, Adam felt his left leg suddenly break under the tightening pressure of the python and could no longer resist the pressure.

"Die" roared Adam who was in immense pain as he slashed downwards at the python's tail with both his daggers.

The strike pierced straight through the thinner scales and revealed the mushy insides of the snake.

With his desire to kill the beast, driven both by his Bloodlust and the hate he had towards the beast that had caused him pain and damaged his leg, Adam gruesomely dug his daggers into the insides of the python.

The python that had loosened its grip, shocked by the sudden pain and by the fact that Adam knew of the weakness of its tail, was suddenly flung off Adam's leg, who seized the opportunity to get the python off him.

The python with its long body, that was unable to balance itself or soften its fall midair, crashed straight into a tree.

Dual Slash

Adam instantly launched two blades formed of energy slashing into the python that fell on the ground.

Withdrawing the E Rank Fur Jacket he still had within the inventory from when he needed it on Floor 1, Adam shredded it apart destroying the item and its value, but forming himself a bandage.

Afterwards, he crawled over to a thick stick that he saw near a tree and after finding another stick to match it, Adam aligned the two sticks at either side of his injured leg and wrapped the bandage he had formed from shredding his E- Rank Fur Jacket.

Within seconds Adam had intelligently made a support for his broken left leg and strugglingly stood up.

Standing on his leg was extremely painful, but with his HP and MP surpassing double that of a peak human, he knew he would recover quite quickly and would manage to painstakingly stand on the injured leg.

Knowing that is was merely a dungeon form and he wouldn't sustain permanent damage from the injury, Adam wasn't focused on pain was on high alert for any beasts that may try to attack him in his weakened state.

His HP was not only how much damage he could sustain, but also represented how much vitality his body had available and as it increased, so did his body's recovery speed along with the increased vitality.

Reinforced by the MP, that was the amount of energy his body had available, recovery wouldn't take more than a few days to a week, which was incredible in comparison to an ordinary human.

But that wasn't Adam's aim and he didn't have that much time to spend in the dungeon, and merely wanted to support his leg before finding the means to recover it.

Adam had only dared to do so during a battle as he had seen that the python had given up on the battle and tactically retreated as soon s it was struck by the second Dual Slash.

"I guess I really was right. I won't know what to expect from a python beast from the dungeon until I face it head-on" mumbled Adam, mocking himself, as he leaned against the tree.

Sometimes he really wondered to himself where he would be without the Hunter's mind that saved him from many stupid mistakes.

But it didn't have complete authority over his mind and his youthful stupidity and recklessness were still able to come out sometimes.

Instead of regretting his decision, he learnt from his mistakes and after replaying the battle over and over again within his mind, he finally formated a realistic plan to take out python beasts from that moment onwards.
