But it is not surprising. The dungeon has become stronger, which means that the boss has become more dangerous and tenacious.The saddest part is that I can't get out of here without killing him. Damn, how many hit points does he have anyway?I attacked again. A message appeared that 43 damage was dealt to the enemy. He dodged, the lightning broke from his hand and, striking into the water, scattered to the sides with a discharge. The enemy shook, an op swept through the area, and I was informed that 44 damage had been done. The spread is because lightning deals 35 damage, if you add 25% of the magic attack modifier to that, you get an incomplete number - 43.75. That is why the number 43 appears every three strokes.The mana is over, and the demon, though breathing heavily, is still alive. I dodged another bunch of black flames, staggered. It floated before my eyes. There is heat and closeness around, steam rises from the water. It's hard to breathe.“You will die even if I never hit

I looked up, but above me there was only solid blackness. It will be necessary to get up and take away the equipment and items from the guys, and even take them out and bury them or something.I looked around the area. It's strange, but it seems like it's getting darker. The light from the stones became dim, visibility dropped to a minimum. As soon as I thought about it, the space around me began to tremble. I heard a crunch, and then a huge stone emerged from above from the darkness and hit with a roar a few steps away from me. Stone chips splattered in all directions.I rushed to the wall, grabbed, pulled myself up. It looks like this cave was created using chaos magic, but once the crystal was destroyed, it began to leave the walls of the cave and eventually dried up so much that everything began to collapse.I climbed at top speed. At this critical moment, the great climber woke up in me. All the films, climbing programs immediately surfaced in my memory, where it was shown how pe

Alchemy.At first, I tensed, thinking that my troubles were not over yet, but when I saw Alex among the fleeing ones, I calmed down.Why don't you reply to messages? Where are the others? he murmured, running up to me.Armed men who looked almost the same as some typical celebrity bodyguards - all tall, muscular, with serious faces, in identical suits - helped me out.Just now I noticed blinking icons in the lower left corner, announcing a private message. In general, while crawling in a narrow passage, and then digging the ground, I was so focused that I did not notice such trifles.- Somehow it was not before, - I muttered, shaking off the ground.- So what about the others? The guys were on my friend list, and then suddenly notifications about their deaths began to come.I winced slightly and looked down. Before the eyes again began to flash pictures of the battle, when they began to kill one after another. I felt like I was back in the arena. Again he ran across the monster, but w

- Yes. I'll just eat and go.- Good luck then.He hung up and I sighed. From the left came the sound of the elevator doors opening. I tensed up, squinted in that direction. Three men with stern faces came out of the elevator, they confidently followed in my direction. I retreated to the door of the apartment, but the men, to my relief, stopped twenty paces from me at the door of one of the apartments.I dived back into myself.I don’t know who they are, what they are doing here and why they came, but this is clearly none of my business.My eyes fell on the capsule. The dim light that pours from the window leaves a glare on the convex surface. I want to eat, but these types are standing there. Wait until they leave?Angry at my own cowardice, I took a kitchen knife and tucked it in my belt, put on my jacket and left the apartment. Two of the three are still standing in the corridor, talking about something. Noticing my approach, one pushed the other on the shoulder and pointed in my di

- And this too, - Alast said with a slight smile. “But the main thing is understanding how everything happens. With this understanding, both recipes are easier to learn and create new potions, combine existing ones, and the like.I mentally whistled. Looks like a real goldmine here.“Before we start, I would like to make sure you have enough money. Education costs three hundred thousand. Do you have that much money?- Yes.- Excellent.He froze, looking at me questioningly.“Oh, yes, I’ll translate it now,” I said, realizing.As soon as my account decreased by three hundred thousand. Alast smiled broadly.- Excellent. Well then, let's not delay. I still need to brew potions today - tomorrow a couple of clients should come. So, there are three types of potions: restoring, changing and destroying. In general, alchemy is not only potions, but I think that this part is more important to you.- Well, everything is important to me.- Potions are the basis. So let's start with them. The corr

"And how do you imagine that? She was on the raid, so she should rightfully get something."“Only what dropped in the raid. You didn’t tell her about the scimitar?”"Not. She just came and asked for your contact. She doesn't know what happened.""That is great. So say it's nothing."“So she can see from the logs! Everything that fell from the boss is written in the general chat of the group. And if we refuse, then she will turn to a higher authority and present the chat recordings as evidence. And when they see that there was a scimitar, but it did not pass through the corporation, they will already ask specific questions to me, and then to you. We'll be lucky if we get off with fines and several years in prison.""Don't be afraid, Alex. She will not see anything in her logs, because before killing the boss, I left the group, ”I said.There was silence for a few moments.“You are smart, Tim. So you left the group?“Well, I thought everyone was dead. And looking at the dark nicknames o

I thought. On the one hand, eight hundred credits is not enough, but on the other hand, it’s just killing castars, all the more I don’t lose anything, I just need to kill them.- A thousand credits and the whole drop goes to me.He hesitated for a moment, but waved his hand and said:- I agree.- That's great, now I'll throw the bill.- Instead of credits, will you take zen? Ten thousand. You can easily exchange with corporations for the same thousand.“Okay,” I agreed.Perhaps it’s even better this way: I don’t have to explain where a thousand loans were transferred to my account from, and whether I sold something on the side, bypassing corporations.I threw a request to enter the group, the guy immediately accepted and handed me the leadership. A small inscription "Galldin" appeared in the corner.- Interesting name.- It was my online nickname, but I liked it so much that I replaced my name with it. So now, in all documents and databases, I am Galldin.- Why didn't you like your na

- All right, it's the past.We are sitting on a fallen tree at the edge of the forest. Ahead is a huge field, on which castars grow at a short distance from each other. The bright sun hung in the middle of the sky, and it seems that the "flowers" of the castars instinctively, like sunflowers, turned to him, opening their mouths, as if wanting either to devour the rays they send, or the sun itself.- I hope now you understand how dangerous this world is?“Yes, quite,” he assured me.- Well, since you understand everything, then do not break into trouble. Sometimes it's better to run away.“And you still need to find loyal and strong comrades like you,” he suddenly said.I chuckled.- Yes, it will be easier and more profitable with friends. But don't count on me, I play solo.- That's how? It's a pity. Tim, you are very strong. I managed to see strong fighters, but I meet a magician for the first time. And I will say for sure that of those that I have seen, you are the strongest. Perhap
