Adrien looked at the hole in curiosity of what it was.

Dungeon name: Cavern of the sand dwellers

Adrien's mind was then flooded with information about the existence of dungeon. "This seems like the perfect place to farm exp points to get stronger.
Adrien could not explain what drives him to want to get stronger but his instincts told him that it was the right way and that was good enough him. Adrien then braced himself and jumped into the hole to explore. A disorienting feeling enveloped him as he felt his body being pulled somewhere.
Adrien opened his eyes to find himself standing on a cobblestone floor covered in sand.

"That is a pretty harsh penalty for my first dungeon. It will leave me pretty defenceless if i do not complete it. Adrien sighed as he placed his dagger in his inventory and using umbral constuct, he created a bunch of daggers from the surrounding shadows. He knew that it would not last long and hurried to his first beast.

Adrien threw one of the daggers in his grasp straight at the beings forehead.
[ Critical hit -70 hp]
Adrien then ran frantically to silence the being before it alerted the others. He used another dagger to smash the being's neck in a sweep, taking it out.
[+ 400 exp]
Adrien huffed in exhaustion as he had slain a number of these beings non stop for an hour and had managed to level up twice. "It's starting to get harder to level up." Adrien said to himself as he put his stat points into endurance. He realized that when he adds points into endurance, it increases his stamina and health points too.
Adrien then took the time to rest and regen his Essence. Once that was done, Adrien headed deeper into the cavern. Adrien had also developed his own skill to trap opponents but it was not recognized by the system because he had not perfected it. He called it shadow bind, where he would summon tendrils from the ground to immobilize the target. Adrien, absentmindedly walked foward when, in a flash, a rusty sword crashed into his head sending him flying.
