"How was it?" Icarus asked.

"See for yourself," Billy said, and then he finished eating.

The others went to fight the next wyrms that appeared, and Billy went to gather some blood from the monster while no one was looking. Using the blood, he created some rings that increased Fire Resistance by twenty levels.

The skill Fire Resistance obtained 500 experience points.

"This is a lot better… I will have some mana by doing this," Billy nodded in satisfaction.

Not only would Billy spend a lot less energy, but he also would train his mental capacity to absorb the experience of items and other things since their capacity was pretty high.

"I need to check if I can learn skills by using this same method…" Billy thought. "The only problem is that the effect obtained by the artifacts will be random."

Still, if he tries for long enough, Billy is bound to hit the jackpot. After the others finished the enemies and their quick meal, they began to move again. During that time, Billy also had the idea of trying to get the experience from the blood of the monsters… he was starting to think like a vampire. Blood wasn't a living being, but it wasn't an item either… he had to be more careful with that kind of idea before he came up with more weird and possibly dangerous ideas.

In any case, the group managed to fight the wyrms without many difficulties after they learned their patterns. However, the beasts still had a weird card up their sleeve… the first one decided to use that when Meryl was firing numerous arrows toward the monster's head. The beast was being overwhelmed, and the pain prevented it from using gravity magic. Still, when she took a step forward to finish the monster, the creature used Fire Breath. Since it wasn't pointing at her, Meryl ignored it, but then the flames hit one of the fissures in the wall… in the next instant, a massive cannon of steam that mixed with the flames became a powerful flamethrower that almost burned her, but Billy used an ice wall to block the attack. He didn't hold back, but half of the wall melted.

"I told you guys to keep your guard up…" Billy said and then sighed.

"My bad…" Meryl said.

After gathering some more scales, Billy managed to make a pair of bracers using them and attacking them with an extra layer of chromium to make sure that the item would offer some real physical defense. In the end, Billy got satisfied with what he created.

Fiery Bracers Lv 0

Endurance + 100, Fire Resistance Lv 50, Heath Resistance Lv 50

Durability: 150/150

"Try this," Billy said while passing the bracers to Icarus.

The group had seen Billy working on those, but they didn't imagine that he would lend them to them. Nevertheless, Icarus equipped them, and he felt a lot better than before. After a couple of seconds, his complexion improved a lot, and he even stopped sweating a bit.

"Wow, this is amazing," Icarus said.

"I guess only those will be enough for the time being for you guys," Billy said. "At least for this sector."

"Aren't you going to use them?" Lucyna asked. "You didn't look so good when we stopped."

"I will treat this as training," Billy replied. "You guys are suffering damage from the environment, but this will approach your Resistance to my levels a bit."

Usually, they would be pissed since it felt like Billy was looking down on them. Still, they truly were literally dying with every single moment they stayed in the dungeon. They had gotten stronger thanks to their Spiritual Cores. However, they still didn't have most of Billy's basic skills that improved his stamina, magic, and health regeneration.

Before they reached the seventh floor, Billy forged two other pairs of braces for Meryl and Lucyna, so their hunting speed increased. Unfortunately, things began to repeat themselves again when they saw two wyrms spawning on the next level.

"I guess we found the pattern of this dungeon…" Lucyna said and then sighed.

"Most likely, yes," Billy said while he was doing some math.

If things stay like that, they will need a month to reach the fifteen floor of that dungeon, and nothing says that would be the final one. Instead of letting that get on his nerves, Billy decided to think of what he could do to improve his situation, aside from the things he was already doing.

"Using physical attacks is possible to kill them, it will be faster if I use Body Enhancement and Destructice Aura," Billy furrowed his eyebrows while he was thinking. "However, I can stop them for good with lightning bolts…"

Billy will sacrifice the growth of his physical skills. Still, he will save time by allowing others to attack without worrying about counterattacks. It was a strategy that had merits and demerits, but stopping his growth seemed like a problem. Still, Billy decided to follow with that because he felt like he should adapt his methods according to the skills of the enemies. Besides, it wasn't like all the other enemies would use the same fighting methods as the wyrms… probably.

"Let's change our methods a bit," Billy said and then electrocuted the new monsters that appeared with lightning bolts flying from his hands.

"Are you sure of that?" Icarus asked since he knew that Billy preferred to train and level up his physical skills.

"I spend the last minutes thinking for a reason, now, jusr hurry up," Billy said.

The others nodded, and then they bombarded the monsters with their attacks. Without wasting any time, they followed Billy, who increased his movement speed to face fewer enemies and then reach the lower floors faster. Billy would lose the chance to train his ability to steal the effects of items, but he had another idea about that…
