Stage 2 had crocodile-like beasts and he found it hard to pierce through their body's scales and found that the Numbing Spear, that he had gained from the Pandinus Boss Beast, was useless against them.

However, with his Gorilla Gauntlets, he could deal them powerful blows, that would crack their scales, and would also deal the crocodile beasts internal damage.

Adam had decided against taking the Marsh Crocodile as the Base Beast of the Crocodilia Beast Race, hoping that in the future he would come across a crocodile beast that had a better special trait.

He was satisfied with the range and amount of summons that he had, and he decided that he would only accept beasts into his beastpedia that either had extremely unique and powerful bodies, or had powerful and or useful Special Traits.

The crocodile beasts were tough beasts and most of his summons weren't very effective against them, especially in the environment of Floor 4 that didn't suit any of them, but he still dealt with them efficiently and as quickly as he could, using his Gorilla Gaunlets.

Only after a week of hunting crocodile beasts in his sleep, did Adam finally reach LVL 17 and was confident enough in his power to move onto Stage 3, but what surprised him was that Stage 3 was mostly covered in water.

After the checkpoint was placed on Stage 3, Adam couldn't go back and even if he did, he wouldn't find any beasts to hunt and had no choice but to fight the Boss Beast that was most likely in the water.

Luckily there were some areas that had small plots of land, which he could jump between so that he didn't need to get into the water, and he also had the Numbing Spear that increased his range.

With his sharp reflexes and using his spiritual sense, he sensed the sudden sneak attack from a hippo-like beast that had an enormous body with many large teeth.

It launched itself into the air out of the water and attempted to bite Adam with its enormas, sharp and numerous teeth, but Adam had managed to narrowly dodge the attack and jump onto another plot of land, while the Hippo Boss Beast dove back into the water.

Despite its seemingly fat appearance, it was extremely fast and strong, especially in the marshland that it thrived in, and had the advantage over Adam who had a limited amount of land at his disposal to stand on.

Adam knew that hippos had incredible biting power and were one of the most feared animals, despite their appearance, so knew not to underestimate the Hippo Boss Beast, especially because it was enhanced and supernatural because of the dungeon.

He also knew that if he fell into the water, it was the end for him and he had to be extremely careful in his current environment, as he used his spiritual sense to its fullest.

Adam used his spiritual sense to assist his physical senses, allowing him to be more aware of his surroundings and where he could land, and pierced the Hippo Boss Beast's side with his Numbing Spear.

The Numbing spear was nearly 2 metres long and the staff was all black, while the spear tip was black with a yellow pattern, and Adam had become accustomed to its weight and length during his battles using it.

It was extremely sharp and useful in battle and he practised with the spear against his master, using a spear that he found in the dojo that was of similar length and weight, making him more proficient in its use.

Piercing the Hippo Boss Beast's body, he would attack from a distance, then exploit his greater speed to keep a distance between himself and the Hippo Boss Beast, while slowly increasing the numbing effect that was piling up on the Hippo Boss Beast, hoping that he could eventually paralyse it.

However, fighting against a boss beast in the dungeon was never that easy and the Hippo Boss Beast's body was too large and powerful for the numbing to have much of an effect on it.

With a sudden and unexpected burst of power, the hippo beast launched itself at Adam and chomped down on his body, leaving him with deep bite marks all over his body.

In an instant, Adam's HP fell by 100 points and was continuously falling from the rapid blood loss.

He hadn't dealt the Hippo Boss Beast enough damage to be confident enough that he would win, but he didn't want to feel that same traumatising feeling of emptiness that he felt each time that he died in the dungeon.

Adam knew that he had to finish the battle quickly as he would die within a short while from the blood loss, and if the blood loss didn't directly kill him, he would be massively weakened by it, making it easier for the Hippo Boss Beast to kill him.

The Hippo Boss Beast was powerful and was a strong beast family for him to collect into his beastpedia through his Unique Collector Skill, but it didn't seem to have any unique, useful or powerful Special Traits, which Adam had found were the most important part of his summons.

Because of that, he didn't want it to be the base beast for his Hippopotamidae Summon, and just like with the crocodile beasts, was hoping to find a better beast to be the base beast in the future.

His energy storages were dwindling after quite a long battle and he had suffered a massive blow from the Hippo Boss Beast, so had to finish the battle as soon as he could.

He was experiencing great pain all over his body and was losing blood too quickly, which not only weakened him, but also revealed his location even if he wanted to escape from the Hippo Boss Beast, as with the beast's sensitive senses, the scent of blood would be easily followed.

He had spent too much time and effort against the Hippo Boss Beast and had weakened it quite massively, but in the process, had lowered the durability of his weapons.

If he was to go up against it next time, it would be much harder with the Numbing Spear that had been damaged, and he also didn't want to experience the traumatising feeling of dying in the dungeon again, so Adam had no choice but to use his trump cards, that he would only use in worst case scenarios.
