YM778.TV Chapter 171 - Monke's Reward Pool
"… Damn, they really did a number on you." I winced at the injuries the three demi-humans sustained. The three of them paid no mind to my wonders as they lay still, fully intent on receiving healing and not making their injuries any worse. "Lina, I\'ll admit it. I have little to no healers in my Dungeon, and what little I have isn\'t enough to get these three back to full health in a few hours. They won\'t die, but they\'ll be stuck here recuperating for days on end as they recover."
"Bah, no need to worry Jion. Tigre is a tough bastard. The same goes for his party. As for Lady Oshurkova\'s subordinates, I have no idea, but they\'ll recover." Catalina approached the three downed figures, before looking back and giving me a smile. "I\'m heading back to my Dungeon. I\'ll be fetching some healers. I\'ll be back in a moment."
Catalina then made her way out of the Monster Town, some primates who survived the ordeal escorting her to the portals leading to her Dungeon.
Left alone with the demi-humans and humans, I pondered how I could\'ve handled the raid better. At this point, my Dungeon will fall to a well-organized party, since my only way of fighting them off is to throw monsters at them and hope for the best.
\'I need to have them learn strategies.\' Looking at the window in front of me, I grinned menacingly.
Trespassers Killed: 187
Humans: 186 = 50 DP, 45 EXP each
Human (Erika von Reinhardt): 1 = 1000 DP, 900 EXP
DP gained: 10,300
EXP gained: 9,270
DP: 26,905 => 37,205
\'I\'ll need to buy some strategy skillbooks and let my lead primates learn them, as well as the residents in my Dungeon. The more information in their minds about fighting, the more capable they are and the safer I get.

Other than the gains I got from the successful defense, I also leveled up due to the EXP I gained. I also noticed something. Erika von Reinhardt, the female knight that was leading them, gave me more DP and EXP than a normal human would.
Does that mean that special humans deemed worthy by the Dungeon, or the Gods, have increased rewards when I kill them? Then what does that make Drake?
I checked the Dungeon Resident status window and choked at the DP and EXP income I gained from Drake alone.
He will give me fucking 15,000 DP and 12,500 EXP if I kill him, and 9,375 daily DP and 4,488 daily EXP.
That\'s about nearly half of my total Dungeon earnings if he wasn\'t present. Just how strong is this dude? No wonder he one-shotted Erika.
Milestone achieved!
Gain victory against one named trespasser… Reward: One floor.
And my Dungeon is once again growing stronger. Feeling giddy at the prospect of my Dungeon gaining another floor, I heard a mental ping go off in my head once more, and a holographic window, one that wasn\'t visible to another being, entered my vision.
Hidden Quest Accomplished!
Tying Loose Ends – Assist Drake to finish the last of his three major regrets.

Hidden Objective 3: Save Erika von Reinhardt and convert her to your side ( )
Rewards:
Objective Completion: Wind Manipulation (Erika von Reinhardt Style) Skillbook
Hidden Objective 1 Completion: Tactician\'s Scouter
\'…That wasn\'t what I was expecting.\' Looking at the holographic window that was, without a doubt, from my system, my jaw dropped at the rewards it gave me.
A skillbook that teaches me the style in which Erika used it, one that is far from being versatile, but makes up for it due to its deadliness and the scouter.
Both of them were deposited into my inventory the moment the quest pinged. Taking the scouter first, I hovered it over my eye, my vision being taken up by the visor.
There were symbols all around it, all of them meaning jack-shit to me at the moment. However, the moment I used the scouter to look at one of the humans, my breath hitched.
Name: Wulfstan
Age: 43
Gender: Male
STR: 112
AGI: 153
INT: 137
\'…Out of all the rewards I have gotten, this is hands-down one of the best ones.\' I grinned like a kid at a toy shop. This is what I have been wishing for ever since I arrived in this world. A goddamn appraisal skill, although it took the form of a very obvious scouter, but who cares? I now have a method to check the power levels of a person and compare them with my own!
"Jionni, you okay there?" From behind me, Nicholas\' voice spoke, and I quickly turned around to use my scouter on him. "Huh? What\'s that you have there?"
Name: Nicholas Gallagher
Age: 42
Gender: Male
STR: 183
AGI: 155
INT: 141
"Just something I got earlier. It shows a brief summary of a person\'s strength." This impressed Nicholas, if his whistling was any indication.
"Damn, now that would\'ve been useful back in my time as a Hunter." Nicholas chuckled as he approached me with stars in his eyes. "Mind if I borrow it for a moment? I just want to see how it works."
"… Sure." I was hesitant at first, but then I recalled him doing his best to kill those fanatic soldiers that were killing my primates left and right. Giving him the scouter, he replicated the actions I did to use it, but tilted his head in confusion.
"Huh…? Nothing\'s happening…" Nicholas pointed it in every direction where there was a person or monster. Grabbing the scouter from him, I then used it to check if the scouter broke or if it was something else.
Name: Luke Gardner
Age: 34
Gender: Male
STR: 167
AGI: 172
INT: 159
"Welp, I guess it only works for me." I concluded, and Nicholas deflated a bit.
"Damn, what a shame." He whined as I chuckled at his misfortune. While that was happening, I heard a commotion at the front gate. Focusing my gaze on it, I saw Drake coming back with a pained smile on his face.
That, however, was not on my mind right now.
Name: Drake Espinosa
Age: 26
Gender: Male
STR: 9952
AGI: 9877
INT: 9696
\'Holy shit! They\'re over 9000!\' Inadvertently quoting the meme from a famous Shounen anime, I stared bug-eyed at the stats of my friend-turned-isekai-protagonist.
And somehow, I\'m believing that fact even more now.
"Dude, what the hell is that? The scouter from that Shounen anime?" Drake arrived right in front of me as he waved his arms in my face. Recovering from my shock, I laughed nervously as I took the scouter and placed it back in my inventory.
"Hehe… Yep… Something like that…" I sheepishly rubbed the back of my head while Drake looked at me with confusion. "By the way, it doesn\'t work with anyone else. Nicholas tried, and it\'s somewhat of a scouter, only this time showing stats instead of power levels."
Drake whistled as he placed his hands on the back of his head, his neck making cracking sounds as he shifted them left and right.
"So, can you tell me my stats?" I nodded, and Drake grinned.
That said, he was a man of culture, so he would have appreciated one of his stats being a sex symbol.
"First off, your power levels are over 9,000." Drake snorted at that, his mind recalling the memes back on Earth. "Your STR stat is 9,952, your AGI stat is 9,877, and my personal favorite, your INT stat is 9696."
"… No fucking way. Is that really my INT stat?" I nodded, and Drake cursed into the high heavens. "THEN HOW THE HELL AM I STILL A FUCKING VIRGIN!?"
"Uh… No offense, Drake, but didn\'t Erika keep on bragging about you two doing the deed most nights?" Nicholas scratched his chin as Drake hissed at the older man.
"That was fake, and you know it! We just spent the time sleeping next to each other, not having some steamy action, you horny dog!" Drake took something from his satchel and threw it towards Nicholas, the item directly landing on his face as the older man recoiled back.
Plucking the offending item off of his rugged face, he examined it and snorted.
"Really, Drake? Of all the things you could\'ve thrown at me, you threw a condom?" Drake fumed as Nicholas laughed, and I along with him. "Oh god… The irony is rich!"
"SHUT UP!" Drake lunged at Nicholas as the two began to wrestle in the dirt.
\'They\'re healthy, at least. No signs of injury from the invasion.\' As I mused, I heard Catalina\'s voice and moved to greet her with a smile on my face.
"Big trouble, Jion!"
Or not…
