**[Dungeon: Wizard's Abandoned Experimental Grounds]**
**[Recommended Level: 0-5]**
**[Enter?]**
"Yes!"
**[You have entered the dungeon: Wizard's Abandoned Experimental Grounds]**
**[Maximum Stay Duration: 48 hours]**
**[Loot: Skill Books, Wizard Manuscripts, Class Change Certificates...]**
**[Clear Condition: Defeat Subject 003]**
**[Transferring...]**
The familiar slight dizziness enveloped him again. Su Luo closed his eyes, letting the peculiar sensation of weightlessness guide him.
When he felt solid ground beneath his feet again, a mix of decaying leaves, damp earth, and a faint unknown floral scent filled his nostrils, starkly different from the eternal darkness and silence outside the dungeon.
The sparse "sunlight" filtering through the forest brought warmth. Su Luo couldn't help but spread his arms wide, taking a deep breath, "Kids, I'm back!"
Into the forest, picking fruits, setting traps, fetching water, bathing—all in one go!
Lying naked on the grass, he relaxed his limbs as if truly on vacation, letting the sunlight caress his skin. Adjusting to a comfortable position, the mental fatigue from continuous study surged, and he soon fell into a deep sleep...
...
**[Detected 162 high-risk applications such as "Strawberry Video," click to learn more]**
Su Luo, expressionless, swiped away the abrupt notification. With a skilled flick and pinch on his phone screen, a green encrypted interface popped up.
**[Please unlock with password]**
He entered the password, but the phone suddenly froze, leaving only a glaring white screen.
"Great," Su Luo muttered, tossing the phone onto the bed and placing tissues on the computer desk.
Reclining in his chair, he turned on the computer and began browsing the web, meticulously selecting.
After a round of selection, Su Luo dragged three items into his collection, preparing them as fuel for his flights of fancy.
"Huh? What's going on?" Su Luo suddenly noticed, puzzled, that his computer had no tower, just a monitor, keyboard, and mouse "working normally."
"The power's not even plugged in, how is it on?"
He reached behind the monitor, feeling its cool, smooth surface, with no power cord interface, yet the screen continued to play smoothly.
A chill ran up his spine, but was quickly suppressed by an inexplicable intuition.
Putting it all out of his mind, Su Luo reclined back in his chair.
"Never mind, priorities first."
...
Satisfied, Su Luo tossed the tissues into the trash, finally taking a closer look at the bizarre situation.
"No power, no tower... yet the monitor's unaffected."
He tried unplugging the mouse from the USB port to see if anything changed...
The moment he unplugged the mouse, Su Luo froze. This chapter is updated first at g.com.
Wasn't there no tower? Where did the mouse cable come from?
Instinctively bending down to look under the desk—where it had been empty, a tower now sat quietly, cables connected to the monitor, as if it had always been there.
Su Luo looked up at the room outside, a chaotic void swirling with countless distorted symbols and fragmented images.
"Oh... so it was a dream."
Su Luo stopped thinking, reclined back in his chair, and opened the website again.
"Great! No need to worry about cooldowns, let's keep flying!"
However, the prolonged "flight" didn't bring immersion, his consciousness grew increasingly clear. Raising his hand, he realized the tissues were all used up.
After pondering for a moment, he opened the tenth chapter of [Meditation] in the computer with sheer willpower, starting to review the knowledge he had noted down but not yet understood.
He didn't know how long he "studied," but Su Luo instinctively opened the system panel, looking at the noticeably increased experience bar for the [Meditation] skill, and slapped his thigh hard!
"This works too?!"
Soon, everything around began to shake violently, as if the dream was about to collapse.
Su Luo remained calm, with a slight mental shift, a blazing fireball gently expanded from his center, consuming the distorted surroundings...
Su Luo opened his eyes, a hint of excitement in them, stretched lazily, and slowly sat up.
"I love... learning in dreams!"
The recent experience sparked countless inspirations in his mind.
Memorize knowledge in advance, digest and understand it in dreams!
This way, even while sleeping, he could keep grinding!
"The potential is immense. If I can fully master dreams... my learning speed will soar!"
An undisturbed environment and the brain's subconscious high-efficiency integration capability.
More importantly, the time flow in dreams differs from reality.
"Later, I'll check out illusion and dream-related skill books, but the knowledge from Meditation and the Basic Visualization Method already allows me to have 'lucid dreams' and control dream content... I can develop along this direction..."
Checking the time, he had only slept for a little over three hours, yet Su Luo was already full of energy.
After browsing the forum for a while, he found three new skill book images posted by the Mutual Aid Association, ready to start learning.
These three were: [Earth Collapse], [Gale Step], [Zen Cultivation], all carefully selected by Su Luo.
[Fireball] was a purely offensive skill, but what Su Luo needed most wasn't attack power, but defense and escape capabilities.
Su Luo decided to use spells to enhance his defense, rather than increasing his strength and constitution.
Strength 4.9, Constitution 4.7, these attributes were far from matching Su Luo's current real strength.
Raising these two attributes would require a lot of time and effort.
Better to invest that time and effort into learning spells, going all in on one path!
A fragile mage is quite normal, if an enemy could break through Su Luo's spells and reach him, his attributes being barely adequate or ridiculously low made no difference, it would still be a one-hit kill. The source of this chapter is novelping(.)com.
[Zen Cultivation] was meant to increase the spirit attribute, though at low levels it couldn't increase mana, it could boost the spirit attribute.
Before officially practicing, Su Luo edited a post:
**["Meditation" Beginner's Guide]**
This post would only interest players who couldn't find related skill books and needed to improve related attributes, but Su Luo still wrote it earnestly for half an hour, breaking down the difficult points.
Then he replaced the original Fireball post model with three simplified spell models and several variations.
After finishing, he grabbed a fruit to replenish his energy, but the repeated consumption made him nauseous just from the smell.
"Right! Bread!"
Su Luo took out the black bread he had found in a previous box, broke off a piece, and chewed it.
"Ugh!"
A quick look at will leave you more fulfilled.
With a kick, he sent the black bread flying, reluctantly picking up the fruit again.

Nine hours of sleep hadn't completely relieved Song Shige's fatigue. He climbed out of bed, eyes dark, and after a moment, took a vial from the bedside.
A shot of stamina potion later, energy surged through his body, and Song Shige finally felt alive.
The first thing he did was check the leaderboard.
Good! Still number one on both boards! It seemed that Ye Xu was also resting after posting the rankings, as the data hadn't moved.
I need to hurry and level up! Can't let myself be overtaken!
Song Shige felt a wave of relief, followed by tension.
Only then did he have time to check the messages in the organization.
[Send a message when you wake up, let's have a quick meeting.]
...
Immersed in [Zen Cultivation], Su Luo was pulled out by Qin Lang's message.
[Qin Lang: Mr. Su, he's awake, do you have time to add him as a friend?]
[Su Luo: Sure]
Su Luo opened the friend request interface, searching through thousands of people to find Song Shige.
[Song Shige: Advisor Su, hello! I'm Song Shige.]
Advisor? Well, that's fine.
Su Luo didn't care much about titles.
[Su Luo: Hello]
[Song Shige: Let me show you my personal panel!]
[Song Shige: Sending image]
There was no real need to check the panel, but Su Luo was curious about the data of a top survivor, so he opened the image to take a look.
