Omega Summoner

Chapter 53: The Adventure Continues

Adrian and Marlon decided to continue with the dungeon run since their stamina and mana have recovered. It is speculated by the player base that the time to clear the dungeon also plays a role on what drops the boss would give but Atlas Inc. has not released an official statement about it even if the players wanted to know.

They only released a statement that players should uncover the secrets themselves because the game was made for players to explore possibilities.

As the party is going deeper inside the dungeon, they realize that the area is becoming wider. It was then that both knew that the dungeonʼs structure has changed from what others have posted on the forums. Adrian then decided to go for an aerial view. Adrian sprouted his wings and took to the sky but barely saw anything because of the dense forest.

The Daemos race also has night vision like the dwarf and gnome race because they have evolved themselves in dimensions with very little sunlight unlike the dwarves and gnomes who got theirs because of being inside caves due to mining or finding rare metals. Adrian sighed because even with his night vision he could barely see a trail which is why he looked at Sirius and spoke.

” Could you smell anything Sirius? A different smell unlike the smell of a swamp.” Adrian asked.

It seemed Sirius has understood the question, he nodded and closed his eyes and pointed his nose upwards. A few seconds later, Sirius opened his eyes and barked as if beckoning the party to follow him. After walking for about 30 minutes, they manage to arrive at a clearing that was muddy with another forest entrance at the other side.

The entrance is the same as that of the entrance at the beginning of the dungeon which is unusual because of the recorded structure of the dungeon in the forums. The next stage should have been available after the exited the forest and there was no clearing in the original dungeon which means the dungeon has been altered because of the quest that Adrian got.

He did not want to accept the situation that they are basically walking blindly to their destination. Adrian was about to take another step when Sirius became agitated which means an enemy is coming.

The party readied their stances when they saw that the mud started moving towards the middle of the clearing. The mud moved like it had intelligence and little by little it was forming a mound until it reached the height of a small hill. The party tried to move but could not since they were locked in place. It seems they would be able to move after the mini-boss becomes whole.

A few moments later the mud hill stared to form a humanoid shape and it even grew limbs. It was not entirely made of mud but also some dead grass and twigs that was swept up by the mud then it was joining together. When the construction of its limbs were finished, three holes could be seen forming in what it seems like its head.

The formed face looked like common mask of a ghost that is seen in halloween but made with mud.

ROOAAR!

The mud golem roared with the intensity of thunder and the party finally was able to view the monstrosity in front of them.

Monster: Great Mud Golem

Level: 30

HP: 1,000,000/ 1,000,000

Description: A golem made of the mud in the Silver Moores. The Silver Moore Banshee made this golem with her new found powers. As the golem was made with mud, it has high physical defense but low magical defense. Its body exhibits the characteristics of normal mud because it was not magically enhanced or another substance was mixed in its creation.

” Damnn....It has a million health points as expected of a golem” Marlon shouted in surprise before he began chanting a spell.

Adrian ordered Sirius to get the golemʼs attention. He ordered Kanlaon to support Sirius if he gets caught by the enemy. Adrian then took to the skies and used ʼAssault Chargeʼ. He flew like a comet to strike the mud golem but was dumbfounded.

” Eh...I am stuck.” Adrian said when he collided with the mud golem and instead of dealing damage to the golem; he got stuck in its body.

Adrian tried to get off of the golem but struggle all he might, it did not even budge. He was even getting sucked inside the mid golemʼs body. Adrian started to panic and struggled even more when he suddenly had an idea.

” I hope.this works. If not, I would just hurt myself. I can do this.” Adrian said to himself to encourage his resolve.

A second later a magic circle formed in the space in front of Adrian and touched the mud golem. Adrian immediately detonated the spacemine and was blown away by the impact and was even damaged.

[You have been dealt 178 damage.]

[You have dealt 38,997 damage to the Great Mud Golem.]

Adrian flew a great deal but managed to steady himself in the air using his wings. He now understood that physical attacks are not desirable because of the special constitution of the mud golemʼs body. Marlon noticed this but did not stop his chanting for his spell. He told Adrian that he needed 30 seconds to complete his spell that might help with fighting the mud golem.

Adrian then switched his battle plan and focused on dealing magic damage instead of physical damage.

” Sirius, protect Levin Cloud until he manage to cast his spell. Saena support me with healing. Kanlaon use your breath on its limbs until the mud dries and harden” Adrian said.

Adrian then moved from his spot to distract the mud golem because he is now the target because he currently hold the most aggro. The mud golem then tried a grabbing motion to Adrian but was unsuccessful because it was sluggish and more so when Adrian casted Chrono Lag to slow it down further. Adrian started his spell casting spree on the mud golem.

He positioned multiple spacemines on its body because the mud golem was immobile for the time being. It even regenerated the damage that Adrian dealt to it a few moments ago. The mud it was missing was filled by the mud on the ground it was standing.

The mud golem then switched aggro to Kanlaon who was dealing damage to it using its fire attribute breath. The mud was heated up and started drying up little by little and steam even rose from the mud golemʼs body as the water in the mud evaporated. Kanlaon would then swung its tail on the dried mud to deal devastating damage.

[Kanlaon has dealt 75,823 damage to the Great Mud Golem]

The mud golem raised its hand to grab Kanlaon and was about to succeed when something exploded mid air scattering mud like rain. The golem regenerates 20,000 HP per second because of the bountiful mud in the area which greatly irritated Adrian because this means that the mud golem has to be bombarded with dozens of spells to deal significant damage.

It was then a giant magic circle appeared below the feet of the mud golem. To be more precise, the whole clearing was covered by the magic circle.

”Let the Goddess of Life bless this infertile land and bring about abundant growth. Gaeaʼs Blessing.” Marlon said as 30% of his mana pool instantly depleted.

Skill: Gaeaʼs Blessing

Tier: Epic

Effect: Gives blessing to a wide area that the player has chosen. Deals damage to enemies by 0.5 of their max HP every five seconds and heals allies in the area of effect by 1.5% of their max HP every seconds. The terrain will be converted to a soil with rich properties that promotes the growth of plant life of different species.

Cooldown: 1 hour

Duration: 1 minute

Cast Time: 30 seconds

Mana Cost: 30% of the casters total MP.

Plants of all kinds started sprouting some even with flowers. The muddy clearing started becoming a flower field and the mud became loamy soil that inhibited the Great Mud Golemʼs regeneration. Marlon cast one of his ultimate spells that he currently has. He deemed it worthy to use because of the traits of the mud golem.

The mud golem roared as if realizing its current situation and immediately shifted its attention to Marlon which the latter did not like as Marlon immediately broke into a sprint to avoid the colossal hand coming down at him. Adrian smiled and immediately detonated fifteen Quantum Spacemines that he conjured.

The mud golem roared as if in pain and Kanlaon immediately fired his breath attack directly at the face of the mud golem. The whole party kept this momentum until the golem dropped to 50% of its HP and it immediately retracted its limbs and formed a flying sphere of mud in its location.
