After feeling as if it had lost something, the Dwarf Miner had stopped Mining and was already looking around.

It's pickaxe in its hands ready to swing at any moment.

An inhuman growl escaped the Dwarf's mouth as it angrily looked around.

The instant Yuan Tai had taken the fourth and passive skill Miner's Intuition, it realized that something was wrong.

Yuan Tai stopped for the moment and just looked at the Dwarf Miner from afar. Luckily it didn't have much stats in intelligence or wisdom or it would have noticed him by now.

Looking around, Yuan Tai inspected his surroundings whilst he kept an eye on the Dwarf Miner.

Yuan Tai took notice of the stalactites further in the cave and knew what he had to do. Activating Stealth and getting within a meter range of the Dwarf Miner, Yuan Tai took the last skill from the Dwarf Miner, Mining.

"UUAAGGHHH!!"

The Dwarf Miner let out a shrill scream the instant it lost the Mining Skill. Yuan Tai didn't have the time to check the information of the Mining Skill since the Dwarf Miner took notice of his location.

Yuan Tai was still in his Stealth state, so he carefully took some steps back.

Crek…

Unfortunately for Yuan Tai, there was a small rock behind him that he kicked away as he tried walking backwards.

The instant the Sound reached the Dwarf Miner, it jumped forward and blindly swung its pickaxe forward despite not knowing where its target was.

!!!

Fast!

Without thinking, Yuan Tai used his Steal Skill and took the pickaxe from the Dwarf Miner before it could hit him.

The Dwarf's pickaxe appeared in Yan Tai's hands and the Dwarf Miner's hand swung past his face.

Realizing the danger and using the Dwarf's state of confusion for extra time, Yuan Tai rushed to where the stalactites were. He kept his eyes on the Dwarf Miner and was preparing to use the Dwarf's very own pickaxe to hit the stalactites.

It wasn't long before the dwarf's state of confusion ended and it glared at Yuan Tai.

"Gerrgege…" groaned the Dwarf Miner as it took some steps over to Yuan Tai slowly.

Gripping the pickaxe tightly with his hands, Yuan Tai began sweating. The Dwarf Miner is really strong and can kill him easily with a single blow.

Cleck…

"Gaahhhh!"

The Dwarf Miner stomped hard on the ground before rushing over to Yuan Tai like a raging Bull.

Yuan Tai threw the pickaxe the instant the Dwarf Miner stomped on the ground. He couldn't underestimate the Dwarf's speed when it's Dexterity stats are so high.

Ch! Clack…

Yuan Tai smiled widely as he heard the sound of the stalactites being hit. The stalactites began to break and fall down onto the moving Dwarf. The pickaxe was momentarily stuck on the roof where stalactites were.

Like raindrops, the stalactites fell on the Dwarf's body, hurting it physically and lowering its health points. By the time the last stalactites fell on the Dwarf, it's health plummeted all the way down until it remained at 150.

With a bashed in head and a broken arm and leg, the Dwarf Miner continued to growl like an animal as he tried standing up on his broken leg. It's eyes stubbornly refusing to show any yielding and wishing to stop.

Click…

It was then that the pickaxe that Yuan Tai threw to the stalactites was finally showing signs of falling as it began slipping out of the hole it was in.

It wasn't long before the bloodied head of the Dwarf Miner was pierced by the head of the pickaxe.

The amount of exp given by the Rare Dwarf Miner was a lot and it must have been increased by its title. Explaining why it had given Yuan Tai and his pet Bing'er a lot of EXP.

'So special monsters and higher ranked ones give more EXP…'

Yuan Tai looked at the Dwarf Miner's dead body and walked over to it before looting it.

Yuan Tai looked at the insane amount of stuff he received for killing just one and was beginning to feel a bit greedy. That was, until Bing'er nibbled on his arm and woke him up.

'Haha… I should quickly get out of here. The blood and loud noise will attract more monsters…' thought Yuan Tai before revealing a light grin and running away, leaving behind the dwarf's dead body.
