Epic of Caterpillar-Chapter 1529: Useful Abilities And The Great Potential Of Silva

The entire Dark Labyrinth was completely empty and there were no monsters either. I guess we can use this as a base of operations. Though I wonder if it has a time dilation or something like a Divine Realm. I also wonder if we can do more things here or not. And can she move it while we are inside?

“Silva, is there a time dilation here?” I wondered.

“…Dunno.” She responded.

“…Can you move it while we are in here?” I wondered.

“Can’t move.” She said. “Can’t close either.”

“Eh? So you can’t close the dungeon as long as there’s someone inside?” I wondered.

“Hm.” She said while seemingly agreeing.

“Huh…”

I wonder if this thing could even be used as a base of operations, seeing this dungeon probably lacks time dilation and we can’t close that big portal either. Anybody will see it eventually and try to sneak inside. Or well, maybe you could make it underground so people can’t enter easily? But that would end up leaving Silva completely alone. I don’t want that! I promised her we would travel and explore the outside world; I can’t go back in my promise and turn her into a new divine realm or something. But I guess the Dungeon can be convenient in other ways, such as being able to leave and store more items inside, although my Item Box can store as many as I want…

Eh, I guess it is not so noticeable. But what about monsters? Surely, monsters can be summoned, right? I wonder if Silva can bring stronger monsters, or evolve them, maybe?

“Silva, can you summon monsters?” I wondered.

“Yeah!” She said, suddenly, a dozen magic circles emerged before us, and large human-sized monkeys with black and brown fur appeared, wearing rusty armor and rusty weapons, mostly clubs or axes. They stood in silence and looked around, without being aggressive.

“Oh, Barbarian Monkeys! These guys are at least E Rank too!” I said with an amazed expression. I quickly checked Silva’s Status to see her MP used, and it showed she used 100 MP for each Monkey, she summoned 14, so she lost 1400 MP. Not so bad at all. She can summon… probably 200?! Wow, that’s a lot. Seeing how she got 20k MP, 200 Summons is not far-fetched at all.

“Silva, what other monsters can you summon?” I wondered.

“Hmm… This.” She said happily, suddenly summoning another monster, a large black rhino with metallic armor. This one cost her 400 MP, but was way stronger than the Barbarian Monkeys, it was an Armored Rhino.

“That’s it?” I asked.

“I think…” She said.

“Huh, let me see something.” I said, quickly checking her Status again.

I see, aside from the lost MP, I quickly clicked the Magic Skills she had… There were two, Summon Dungeon Monster and Dungeon Gate Creation. Maybe checking them myself would be better than letting her guess stuff by simply doing what she thinks she’s doing right. Oh, she also lost 1k MP for summoning the Gate, so that also takes away her MP, huh.

[Dungeon Gate Creation: Lv1]

Skill Proficiency: 50/5000

By using the innate powers of a Dungeon, the user is capable of summoning a gate in space and time that leads to the dungeon they own. The dungeon layout can be improved and grow bigger through leveling of this skill and the development of the user’s strength. The Dungeon layout can be edited through the usage of large quantities of MP and if the required levels are met.

Oh! This must be the skill she used, isn’t it? It seems that it costs 1000 MP to use it once. and she gains 100 Skill EXP with each summoning of a Gate, is that right? It seems she lacks a cooldown for this, so maybe leaving her spamming gates and closing them might be the trick for the dungeon to grow larger as well.

[Summon Dungeon Monster: Lv1]

Skill Proficiency: 180/5000

As a Dungeon, you’re able to summon Dungeon Monsters. Each Dungeon has their own set of unique monsters they can summon. The monster’s innate power depends in the strength and level of the Dungeon and the level of this Skill.

Summoned Dungeon Monsters cannot level up by themselves nor develop skills but can become better at their already acquired Abilities through practice, and if they have high amounts of Intelligence Stat, they’re able to learn patterns and even languages.

New monsters are unlocked with each Skill Level. All Stats of all Summoned Monsters increase by +20% with each Skill level naturally. Additionally, their HP and MP regeneration increases by +5% with each Skill Level.

Available Monsters:

Level 1: [Monkey Barbarian (E- Rank)], [Armored Rhino (E+ Rank)]

Level 2: Locked.

Level 3: Locked.

And here it is, the power of summoning monsters is here. I can Summon my own Chaotic Beasts, that can be rather handy, but they’re very straightforward and I cannot mass summon them by the hundreds due to the costs eating me away. However, Silva is different, it feels like she’s just made to summon monsters. The Monkey Barbarian only costs 100 MP and the Armored Rhino 400 MP, and she got 20k MP that constantly regenerates! This group alone is already capable of going against one of my Chaotic Beasts, so they’re not weak at all either.

Huh, I am beginning to see what Silva’s true purpose might be in the war… However, there’s another Skill I want to check.
