Skill Extraction: Exploring Dungeons

Chapter 205 Piled-Up Spoils


A seemingly ordinary hill on the wasteland.

It looks like a typical hill, but the inside holds a world of wonders.

The entire interior of the small hill has been hollowed out to form a massive cavity, where Kane and his companions are resting.

Yet inside, it's not stone walls, but a two-story wooden house built snugly against the cavity.

And the strengthening Skill Grid of Kane's Origin Skills has been equipped with [Forest's Son], making the maintenance cost of the wooden house almost negligible.

Plus, the area of the cavity ensures that the wooden house remains within a 10-meter radius of Kane, so the house can be perfectly maintained.

The group set a fire beside the wooden house, and Kreya started sorting out the necessary ingredients nearby.

Longbei sat by the fire, looking at the wooden house ahead, and couldn't help but sigh, "Our brother's skills are getting more and more outrageous, but certainly more and more useful."

In response to Longbei's sigh, everyone except Kane nodded in agreement with his words.

Although they all knew that after Kane's skills were sublimated, the range greatly increased, they were still very clear about the upkeep cost of constructing things and maintaining their existence.

Yet now Kane could sustain the existence of the wooden house without worrying about the cost, which more or less surprised them.

Of course, this made everything more convenient for them in every way.

Among them, Kreya was the happiest, as her constant exploration outside often left her troubled due to rooms that were suitable for her because of her body, which she couldn't always find while resting, causing inconvenience in the wild.

But now Kane and Lilulu had perfectly solved this problem for her.

Since they started resting, they needed to carefully identify the loot they had obtained over this period.

Kane took all the unidentified Magic Items they had acquired during this time from the Space Equipment and piled them in the middle of the group.

Counting carefully, there were a total of 23 items.

They began with identifying those that appeared most precious and conspicuous first.

First was a very conspicuous Giant Tooth Sword, which came from the War Demon.

[Abyssal Rupture]

[Giant Sword]

[Color: Silver]

[Attributes:]

[Medium Bleed on Hit]

[Medium Power Suppression]

[Micro-Destruction Magic Element]

[Skill: Magma Enchantment] (Consumption of Magic Power to imbue the sword blade with a layer of magma, causing severe burning damage with its attacks)

[Description: A War Demon from the abyss, forged this weapon tailored for itself by battling up from countless low-level demons, with an untold number of demons meeting their end under this sword.]

This weapon, in terms of its length and weight, was very suitable for Kreya, and since she didn't have a particularly powerful heavy sword blade, this might just become a frequent companion in her hands.

Then they picked up a black Cloak, which was among the items dropped by the two Night Demons before.

[Night Demon's Skin]

[Cloak]

[Color: Silver]

[Attributes:]

[Medium Increase in Agility]

[Silent Action]

[Skill: Escape into the Shadow] (Once daily, the user can enter a shadow while using the skill, and their next attack upon emerging from the shadow will carry a certain amount of shadow damage.)

[Description: The name of the equipment alone reveals what it's made from. For ordinary people, demons are like nightmares, but for the strong, they are merely materials.]

The team decided to give this piece of equipment to Kane after their discussion.

Since the team didn't have a thief, they could only leave it to him as a jack-of-all-trades.

Normally, equipment with life-saving properties would be given to Meizike, but he already had equipment with similar properties, so another wouldn't offer him further security.

Next, they picked up an item resembling a Crystal Ball, though its origins had been forgotten.

[Powerful Moon]

[Crystal Ball]

[Color: Silver]

[Attributes:]

[Medium Increase in Casting Speed]

[Medium Increase in Magic Strength]

[Skill: Meditation] (When equipped by a caster, it enhances understanding and learning of Magic.)

[Description: A Magic Equipment crafted by the Dark Moon People in reference to their celestial idol, the moon, using a fragment fallen from the moon itself.]

Without doubt, this piece of equipment was given to Lilulu by Kane since she was the only caster in the team.

Lilulu greatly appreciated the appearance of this item and immediately minimized it to embed it into her Magic Staff.

Quite a straightforward and direct way to use it.

There were three other Magic Equipments, but they were all items of copper color; unexpected to find low-level equipment still present in a silver Dungeon.

But thinking about it, it made sense, as not all monsters in a silver Dungeon were silver, and there were plenty of copper-strength monsters around.

The rest were a medium silver Magic Material and more than a dozen micro silver Magic Materials.

Along with the silver medium Magic Material that Kane had previously obtained, it might just be enough to charge a silver Magic Stone.

Thinking of this, Kane grew somewhat impatient and began rummaging through his Space Equipment, and indeed, found the Magic Material obtained from his earliest Dungeon experiences.

He mixed it with the pile of silver Magic Materials on the ground and then summoned the [Book of Adventure].

Taking a Blank Magic Stone from the Extraction Array, he inserted it into the material pile.

The silver Magic Power from the pile of silver Magic Materials began to flow like ribbons, slowly into the Blank Magic Stone.

As the silver Magic Power poured in, the Magic Stone began to fill with silver.

Once all the materials were consumed, the Magic Stone was fully charged, becoming a rhombus-shaped object akin to being crafted from silver metal.

Longbei and the others seemed to notice the difference in this Magic Stone compared to Kane's previous ones, looking on with curiosity.

As Kane gazed at the Magic Stone in his hand, his heart began to pound, his emotions becoming a bit excited.

He felt as though he was experiencing his first Skill Extraction all over again.

But there was no rush.

He placed the [Blessing of Fortune] into the Skill Grid, choosing to use it, as the shadow of a four-leaf clover appeared before Kane and then disappeared.

Uncertain if it was his imagination, Kane felt as though his luck had genuinely improved.

Flipping the book to the page of the Extraction Array, he slowly pressed his palm against it, while gripping the Magic Stone in the other hand.

[Skill Extraction]

[Consume Silver Magic Stone for Skill Extraction]

[Yes] [No]

"Yes"

[A girl is praying...]

[Skill Extraction in Progress...]

The array on the book began to spin, emitting gentle light, and the silver Magic Stone disappeared, replaced by a piece of silver metal plate with glowing patterns.
