Chapter 904 The Power Of The Harvest Familiars
-----
It has been roughly two weeks since then. I've dedicated myself to just relax, rest, and do some small tasks to improve myself through these few days. Doing some Alchemy in the side, Crafting a few things, and also doing whatever small quests I could in the Adventurer's Guild.
Though, we've been using these quests as an excuse to visit the Dungeon whenever we could, the Fishman King's Dungeon was always filled with monsters due to its ancientness and rich amounts of Miasma and Mana, so almost every day we could slay dozens of high tier monsters to accumulate on the EXP.
Like that, Aquarina was going to soon reach Max Level, and everyone else was ranking on the levels too. One thing I noticed was that although everyone had a Level Cap of 20, because they started really strong thanks to all their training, much like Aquarina, they've taken longer to level up.
It wasn't the same with Luck because he started off as a rather weak hero, and the system helps those that are already weak grow stronger quickly. However, to "balance" things, as Alice said, the EXP requirements will increase the higher the base stats.
Lara was able to level up quickly because she got EXP off Lolth, but due to her incredibly high magical stats, her leveling speed is roughly the same as everyone else, and in fact, Luck had also slowed down a lot, almost at the same pace as everyone else too.
This has given me a lot of information about how the System works at increasing stats and leveling up, and it made me realize my parents and the other heroes would level up even slower than our friends here, as they're already ridiculously strong.
But even then, the System would still give them a nice buff in terms of Skills and other things, so it wouldn't just be a wasted System Seed, in fact, I've been thinking about it for a long while now. And I might give them all Systems quite soon before the month ends.
I just need to prepare myself to talk them about the System and all, it's not going to be an easy talk, and I have to make sure to not reveal just everything, while making it sound natural.
I don't know what my parents would think if they ever discovered I was a reincarnated soul, or if they learned a strange "God of Transmigration" mistakenly gifted me Alice... I'll have to just explain things as I believe they are from my point of view.
Just saying "I was born with this power, and she is Alice, blah, blah, blah" would work, I guess? My mother is the most prying... But well, I've done so many things that I don't think they would go THAT crazy over the System, right?
I mean, the Dungeon is already an insane place, so I suppose they wouldn't find it completely ridiculous... I hope.
"Sylphy, there's four Sea Snakes coming your way!"
Suddenly, Zack interrupted my thoughts as I noticed the beasts approaching. Four huge sea snakes, Tier 5 Monsters, rushing towards me. Their bodies as long as thirty meters each, with huge jaws capable of swallowing me whole.
"SHAAAAH!"
"Oh? Ah, well, you guys can take care of this."
Dozens of large figures emerged from behind me, leaping into action. A monster in the shape of a skeleton, made completely out of wood, and wearing a giant pumpkin with a face as its head emerged, it was seven of them, wielding huge scythes made out of black flames.
"Gyehehehe!"
With a mischievous laughter, they attacked rapidly, swinging their giant scythes, and cutting down one of the Sea Snakes easily by slicing their flesh into pieces, as if they were preparing some sashimi out of it.
SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!
"SHYAAAGH!"
The Sea Snake wasn't even able to evade the attacks or move away before dying on the spot. The other three were swiftly surrounded by them, but they smartly swung their huge tails, throwing some of the strange monsters away.
"SHAAAAH!"
BAAAAMMM!!!"
Yeah, they weren't the best at taking hits, so they were flung away like ragdolls, thankfully their HP was pretty high due to their Ranks, and well, I've had another tanky guy for the job.
"GRUOOHHH...!"
Ten giant walking trees, each one ten meters of height stepped in, spreading their huge branches and roots around as they instantly intercepted the three Sea Snakes attacks.
CLASH! CLASH! CRAAASH!
Their bodies were grinded down, but quickly kept regenerating, their roots tightly grasping the floor as they absorbed the dungeon's vast energies and recovered their health quickly.
Their roar wasn't just that either, as it acted as some sort of provoke-type of spell, bringing the attention of their foes and turning the monsters berserk.
"Gyehehe!"
"Laaa~!"
Alongside the pumpkin faced fellows that swiftly rejoined the battle, dozens of flowers emerged out of the ground, singing as they shoot lasers of sunlight at the monsters.
BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM!
With the combination of the pumpkin faced monsters' scythe attacks and swift movements, while the walking trees tanked the hits, the Sea Snakes died just a few seconds after trying to eat me.
Ding!
[Your Summons have slain [Sea Snake (Tier 5)] x4!]
[You earned 400.000 EXP]
"You guys are not bad at all."nOve/lb)In
These new and strange plant summons were part of the Harvest Familiar Skill, which some time ago had reached Level 4 thanks to the Skill Proficiency potions helping the skill level up randomly.
This made it so I had more storage to hold even more Summons, even more bonus Stats, and also, stronger summons that already replaced my previous ones... Well, except when we need to eat them.

The strongest ones were the Level 4 Jack-o-Lanterns and Apple Treants, comparable to Tier 7 Monsters without any buffs.
Indeed.
