As the group of adventurers began rushing forth to try and catch up with the undead legion that in their eyes was already close to seizing the dungeon core, back within the serene forest whose serenity was only broken by the destruction left behind by the undead legion that had forced its way through the forest, Scaly and Verdell were both taking advantage of the skeletons and undead that were left scattered along the path to increase their own strength while continuing forward.
In the process, outside of Scaly reaching level 30, Verdell also managed to jump from level 100 to level 102. The most important part of this improvement in strength not so much being the fact that his strength had increased, but instead that these short and relatively simple battles with the undead and skeletons left behind allowed him to get used to his new strength as an S Rank Adventurer.
