Omega Summoner

Chapter 174: Onwards to Conquer the Tomb I

The remaining party members in the Tomb of Gefroren are still lost about what to do. Levin Cloud, who is seeing this situation, decided to revive the teamʼs morale. He wanted to assure everyone that Adrian was alright despite him not knowing of the situation.

”We should not dwell too much on what happened and expect the worst. His game pod must have malfunctioned or a bug occurred that is why he was forcefully logged out. We must not worry too much or else he will scold us that we did not try our best conquering the dungeon.” Levin Cloud stated to dissipate any uneasiness in the room.

Soleil stopped crying and immediately made a brave face but her puffy face from all the crying only made her look cute. The others also calmed down and focused on the dungeon. Although their hardest hitter is out of commission, they still have a chance to clear this dungeon as they still have the mission given to them.

”Besides the two of them could join us later as this is an open dungeon. I already messaged the two of them to join us and big sis Solstice replied that she would return in about three hours in-game time.” Levin Cloud stated.

”So we should clear the path first so that she can easily follow after. This dungeon looks spacious that it looks like there are safe zones we can log out on.” Peridot stated.

Large dungeons like the Tomb of Gefroren often have one or two safe zones because it would take more than four days to actually conquer them. This also ensured that the players could take breaks so that their body could take care of their natural functions. What Levin Cloud was definitely worried about is Adrian.

Usually if a player logged out in a party while in a large dungeon, their name will only be grayed out and not completely removed. A player would be given a choice if he wanted temporary respite or to leave entirely. The latter is what Solstice chose as temporary respite will let the player log out but must return in a given time frame.

Levin Cloud could only speculate that something happened to Adrianʼs game pod or something happened to Adrian himself. He was praying that it was the former as he does not want something happening to his best friend. Anyways, the leadership role was passed on to him so he had to do his best for the raid.

”Okay. Let us press forward first and try to reach a save point at least so that we can log out and continue from there. Be careful on what you step on as it might activate a trap like earlier.” Levin Cloud stated.

”I think itʼs better if we go by my idea on how to clear this stage.” Peridot said as she created a clay soldier from ground.

Peridot then made the clay soldier walk across the room in a straight line. The previous tile that Soleil stepped on has already returned to its previous position but they already know where it is. The clay soldier moved while its body produced a sound like clay pots grazing each other.

The clay soldier went past the tile that Soleil previously stepped on. The clay soldier then stepped on a trap tile about three feet past the first trap tile. A giant ice block was once again released and it crashed against the clay soldier which destroyed it in the process.

The trap tile returned to its previous position in about five seconds while the clay soldierʼs parts were still scattered on the ground. Peridot made gestures once again and the destroyed parts of the clay soldier reattached themselves once more. The clay soldier once again started walking again to the exit of the room.

”I see. Your clay soldier will activate the traps so that we know here to walk so that we can reach safely. Good job!” Levin Cloud sincerely praised which made Peridot blush a little.

”I should walk ahead of us since I am the tank.” Kabrakan said as he went to the front of the party.

Peridotʼs plan worked like a charm and they safely entered the next room. It was the same as the previous room minus the gigantic square holes. Instead, this room is filled with crystal stars affixed on the wall. No enemies were there to be fought once again so their conclusion is that it is a trap room once again.

Peridot once again let the clay soldier lead in order to test the room. It was expendable anyway and only needed 500 mana to reform. They must proceed with caution as this was a dungeon with a high level. The clay soldier walked straight once more but no tile on the floor went down.

When the team wanted to relax, a light came from below the foot of the clay soldier. About half a second later, numerous arrows flew from the walls and flooded the room with flying arrows. The whole room became chaotic and the clay soldier became a pin cushion in no time before it ultimately broke.

Levin Cloud observed this and saw that the crystal stars were actually arrow heads. There was no safe spot in the room unlike the previous room. Peridot once again reformed the clay soldier but once it took another step, another batch of arrows came flying again.

”It seems that the magic circle is moving in a pattern which is why the clay soldier triggered it twice.” Vayu stated which alarmed the whole group.

”What should we do then? A moving magic circle is a headache enough but an invisible magic circle is too much to handle. Equinox would be able to see it but do you guys have a skill that can see the flow of mana?” Levin Cloud stated as even he does not know what to do.

”I have the skill that can detect magic but its mastery is still low so it is not accurate enough. But I have an idea. We just do not need to touch the floor right?” Vayu stated as he took out a flute.

Vayu then played the flute and then a cold breeze suddenly enveloped the whole team. Little by little, the group was levitated one feet above the floor. Vayu then stopped playing the flute and explained what he did.

”We have exactly one minute before this wind that carries us dissipates. Treat it like it is the ground. We must sprint towards the door. Let us go.” Vayu stated as the whole group took five seconds to get used to the sensation before moving forward.

Levin Cloud has to admit that Adrian managed to meet peculiar people. This dungeon exploration would be more difficult if the people here were normal gamers. Usually, what other people would usually do was to let the tank shelter them until they reach the exit.

The group here are also rather quick-witted and knows how to improvise rather than charge through which made Levin Cloudʼs job easier. They once again safely reached the next room that is vastly bigger than the two previous two rooms combined. There were no special ornaments or holes in the room except it was full of frozen bones and armors.

Once all of them were inside the room, the bones and armors started rattling. Creepysoo felt undead energy suddenly permeate into the bones and armors that are scattered in the room.

”Everyone be ready! I think we will have a battle in this room.” Creepysoo warned as he suddenly took out his staff that had a gray orb with a bony hand clutching it.

The others also started to prepare. Kabarakan fortified himself with his defensive buffs while Peridot started raising her gen in the air as she chanted. Soleil wanted to prove herself and started conjuring one fireball after another. Vayu clutched his sheathed blade and is ready to strike anyone within range of his attack.

Levin Cloud started buffing his teammates except Creepysoo because holy attribute damage delas damage to him rather than healing him. He learned this earlier when they were practicing their teamwork. Creepysoo even started burning as he was immolated but the young boy thought that he suddenly got fire powers.

The group had a good laugh but Levin Cloud still said sorry to him because he thought he could heal him as he was progressing on his quest to become the Envoy of the Twin Gods. Adrian did say to him that the undead king has yet to form a covenant with the god of death so his heals could still hurt Creepysoo.

Maybe after when the undead king forms a covenant will Levin Cloud be able to heal undead affiliated with the god of death. But most likely it would only be Levin Cloud capable of doing this as the Church of Death is out of commission and is no longer a known or active faith.

”Everyone fight smart. They are still skeletal undead so they are weak to blunt attacks. We must do out best!” Levin Cloud stated as the fight finally begins.
