What kind of experiment?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My club is trying to test how strong this magical formation is in warding off the Undead. As you can see, it instantly annihilates Rank 2 Monsters, while Rank 3 Monsters and above are seriously weakened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I believe it can also reduce the strength of Rank 5 Monsters by half, but we still need to see if it will really work. You see, our Club goes on some expeditions, and there’s always a chance that we might encounter Undead Monsters during our explorations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As such, I have deemed it prudent to test how well this kind of formation works on Higher-Ranking Undead. When we determine the limit of the formation, we will be able to assess when we should run away or stay put.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alex was so passionate that even the Headmaster was starting to believe him. In fact, the results spoke for themselves. The formation was indeed very effective against Rank 2 Monsters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for Rank 3, even a simple slap would be enough to kill those monsters since they could barely hang on after encountering the formation. Rank 4 Monsters were also seriously affected. Even though they could survive the formation, they were at most as powerful as Rank 1 Monsters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ancient runes that Nessia had learned from the Codex of Eternal Weave were far more effective than any runes known to scholars at the present time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So you plan to stay here until the formation loses its effect?\" Professor Rowan inquired.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, Headmaster,\" Alex answered without hesitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, he had no plans of telling Professor Rowan that he was waiting until he became a Rank 3 Oathkeeper.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the Headmaster had known what Alex was thinking, he would have already dragged the young man out of the dungeon by force!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’I’m very close to reaching Rank 3.’ Alex clenched his fists. ’There’s no way I’m leaving now!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, the Headmaster was also very curious about the formation and went to talk to Nessia.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since she had the highest score in the Solo Rankings, it was very obvious that she was the one responsible for the magical formation protecting everyone from the Undead Monsters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the students and Professors watching the projection in the academy finally took notice of Nessia. Some even thought about how beneficial it would be to befriend her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alex was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief. At least the Headmaster seemed to agree with letting them continue their so-called experiment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Rank 4 Death Knight had finally made its appearance, but it was easily defeated by Chuck and Dim Dim, who worked together to whack its head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was then that everyone truly understood how powerful Nessia’s formation was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their teeth itched when they saw how her formation reduced a Rank 4 Boss Monster to something so easily defeated by a few hits from Dim Dim’s Toy Hammer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Rank 3 Zombie Knights that had reached the First Floor didn’t pose a threat at all either. They all perished without much fuss, further boosting Alex’s experience gain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since these experience points were shared between his party members, all of them greatly benefited from it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just like Alex, Renard was also very close to reaching Rank 3, except he was a Berserker Juggernaut.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An hour later, Alex finally saw the notification that he had been waiting for.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>———\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>— 10,000 Arcana Points.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>— Your Magic Stat will increase by 200 Points.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>— You have unlocked the Skills, Mana Heart Oath [EX], Spike Shield [EX], Mirror Shield [EX]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>———\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>— Passive Skill\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>— Increase Mana Regeneration by 150%\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>— Once the Oathkeeper reaches Rank 4, the Mana Regeneration of this skill will increase to 300%\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>———\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>— Active Skill\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>— Create spikes on your shield that deals 100% of your Strength Stat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>— If this skill is active when you use Shield Bash or Shield Charge, the damage is increased to 300%.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>— The spikes will be destroyed after three uses. You can cast it once more when that happens.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>— Once the Oathkeeper reaches Rank 4 the spikes on your shield would deal 200% damage to your Strength Stat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>———\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>— Active Skill\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>— This skill will reflect any magical spells or attacks that are Rank 1 spells and below back to their casters. (Example: Magic Bullets).\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>— Once the Oathkeeper reaches Rank 4, this skill will reflect Rank 2 spells and below back to their casters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>———\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Wow!’ Alex was quite surprised by the rewards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Truth be told, he felt very limited by his Magic Stat since he would only get one point in magic for every three points in intelligence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t very cost-effective for him to dump stats in Intelligence because he wasn’t born with Magic Affinity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, now that he has an additional 200 Magic Points, as well as a skill that passively increased his mana regeneration, he would be able to utilize his skills better.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Also, since his reflection ability didn’t work against magical attacks, getting the Mirror Shield [EX] was a very lucky coincidence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had actually planned to buy the skill, Mirror Shield [EX], with the Super Rare Skill Book he had acquired. With this, he could choose another useful skill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Last but not least was the Spike Shield [EX].\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was a skill that Alex had also longed for—he could just imagine coating his shield with steel spikes, then using it to bash people!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yep, that would definitely hurt!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It would also increase the damage output of his Shield Charge, making it a very scary skill to possess.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’A Rank 3 Oathkeeper is no joke!’ Alex thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man was extremely happy with his new set of skills, which made him more confident in facing future challenges he could not avoid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now that he had accomplished his goal, he told his club members that it was finally time to leave, which made Professor Rowan and the Student Councillors sigh in relief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"All of you, exit the dungeon and look for the other professors,\" Professor Rowan instructed. \"I’ll deal with this Dungeon Outbreak so it will not endanger anyone anymore.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since the students were leaving, there was no longer any need for him to hold back in cleaning up the monsters that were still heading to the surface.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rank 4 Monsters didn’t pose a threat to most people, but Monsters that were Rank 6 and higher were a problem.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Professor Rowan still had his doubts about the whole situation, he had to deal with the Dungeon Outbreak first before anyone else got hurt.\u003C\u002Fp>",1131,"2026-06-09T06:11:16.320Z",1,"novelbin.me","e41318011bfbb18fb9307bf144a6992596aa60aace2b2567fea3066acb5db4a2","endless-leveling-done-right-chapter-355","endless-leveling-done-right-chapter-353",682,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fendless-leveling-done-right-cover.jpg"]
