Novel Bin Chapter 13 - LVL 4
With a newfound target, the snow hares, Adam began to search the area for more beasts.
Within minutes, a white blur dashes out of the snow and slashes at Adam\'s leg.
"Leporidae Summon" he exclaimed ignoring the pain.
"As the snow hare attacks me, attack it" he ordered to his summon, who nodded in acknowledgement as it attentively watched its master.
Adam tightened his grip on his club, preparing to defend himself for the next attack.
The smart snow hare was intimidated seeing Adam had a snow hare with him, but could tell they were only LVL 3 so decided it would still attack.
It launched itself off a nearby tree at Adam\'s head, who saw the attack coming and held his club in front of his face to block the attack.
As the snow hare collided with the club, unable to change trajectory mid-air, Adam\'s Leporidae summon, seeing the opportunity, dashed at the snow hare who was too slow to react to the attack from behind.
Slashing its back, the Leporidae summon left a deep gash in the snow hares back which shrieked in pain and jumped back in retreat.
Swiftly rushing in the opposite direction, the snow hare ran in retreat.
"Run after it and kill it" ordered Adam to his summon.
Instantly the Leporidae summon charged after the snow hare.
Adam knew that the injured snow hare would get tired and would be weakened after such a deep wound and although one LVL higher, he knew with its low health and it being injured it would be defeated easily.
"This must be an area with many snow hares, I will hunt them with my Leporidae Summon and gain as much EXP and loot as I can," he planned.
Receiving a notification that something had entered his inventory and his EXP has risen, Adam knew that his summon had beaten the snow hare.
He had received 4 EXP, 40 gold, 4 system points and checking his inventory he found a snow claw as loot.
"What can I do with this snow claw," he asked the system.
{Material items can be used in the future for a currently locked part of the Dungeon System, however, for now, it can be used to temper your Leporidae Summon\'s claws} informed him the system.
Adam noted that there was something he hadn\'t unlocked and withdrew the sharp hare claw and threw it in the direction of his summon who was running towards him.
The small white hare jumped into the air with its mouth open and swallowed the claw, that seemed to disintegrate as soon as it touched its tongue, and Adam could visibly see his summon\'s claws glow slightly then return to normal.
"Let\'s continue to hunt" he stateed as he scoured the area for hiding snow hares.
After almost 8 hours off non-stop hunting Adam lay against a tree sweating profusely with his clothes drenched in blood.
In this time Adam had retracted his summon due to it using too much MP for him to be able to summon it for long periods of time.
Hunting by himself he would be able to take on a snow hare and leave without much damage taking due to now already knowing the way they battle.
He had defeated 24 snow hares all together with his club, that varied in LVL with the strongest being LVL 5 and the weakest LVL 1.
His body, MP and HP were drained as he lay there trying to recover and didn\'t want to use pills, as he had already spent a lot of system points and waited for his natural recovery.
Adam\'s fur jacket had limited durability and wouldn\'t last for much longer.
He seemed to be coming to an end of his stamina and ability to hunt for the moment.

Adam was by no means giving up, but he felt as though he had overworked the body he was in and also didn\'t want to spend any more than he already had, on pills.
[System is it possible to leave the dungeon before the time is completed].
{That is possible and recommended for your current state, as you have pushed your Dungeon Form to the limit and despite using pills to heal yourself, this form can only handle a certain amount of damage} recommended to him the system.
The existence of a \'Dungeon Form\', and that it could only take a certain amount of damage, was noted by Adam and also added to his curiosity of how the system worked.
But seeing him so close to becoming LVL 4, he wanted to LVL UP before he left.
Lifting up his fatigued body he staggered towards the east where he had hunted the least, in order to find a beast to hunt one last time to LVL UP, before he left the dungeon.
After dragging his fatigued form he finally spotted a small area where he could see the snow move slightly, which he found out was a way to notice the snow hares in their camouflaged form.
"Goblin Summon"
"Leporidae Summon"
A goblin and a small white hare-like beast appeared before Adam as he fell back due to his sudden lose of MP and his body unable to handle sustaining both the summons.
"Attack the snow hare quickly" he ordered frantically.
The Leporidae jumped onto a nearby tree and launched itself off it, towards the snow hare, while the goblin charged directly at the snow hare.
Intelligent and seeing two beasts rush towards it, the snow hare turned to run away, but the Leporidae summon was smarter and had covered its retreat.
In the moment of hesitation, seeing that its route of retreat was closed, the goblin had reached its position and swung its club down with all its strength at the snow hare.
Striking its head the goblin had landed a critical hit and with one strike had defeated it.
"At least I reached LVL ...."
Before he could finish his words, Adam\'s fatigued dungeon form was sucked back into his body that was sleeping in his bed.
