My Dungeon Life: Rise of the Slave Harem

The sound of a few hundred golems hobbling down the hallway was deafening. In that case, the only way I could give orders was through Slave Master. The golems came from every direction, but we didn’t stay around the lure this time. Rather, the goal was to lead them to a hallway that went past us. In this way, we were running around the dungeon, setting up barriers and walls to redirect them on the path we wanted them to take. I sat in the main area, my eyes locked on the map as I tried to navigate the girls around.

I had gotten the idea when we battled the Treasure Hunter. These guys could move better than the Treasure Hunter did, but overall they did not have good mobility. Rather than trying to face them head on, it was better to lead them all to a spot where they’ll become congested and unable to move. That’s why the attractant was released right in the middle of a four-way intersection.

Of course, we surrounded that intersection with traps. Most of those traps were set to further slowdown, hinder, and otherwise trip the golems up. When four waves of golems all crashed at the center of the intersection, there was a horrific grinding sound. The golems from behind were pushing on the golems in front, and along with a few well placed and timed traps, it became a meat grinder, or perhaps I should call it a rock grinder.

If Raissa was here to see how we were dealing with this large rush of golems, it would once again break her common sense. She would definitely sputter in disbelief as she witnesses hundreds of golems being handled like lemmings.

However, our hopes weren’t to destroy golems with traps and tricks, but to down as many as we could ourselves. Once the flood stopped coming, and they finally grew congested in four lines each leading back nearly a kilometer. Terra then created walls preventing them from having any release. About 200 golems from each side were now slammed in the middle, desperately trying to turn around and escape their confines.

“Alright, go!”

I gave the order, and the six of us attacked the golems from each side. Celeste and Terra each got one row, as Terra’s abilities made her uniquely powerful and safe against her inferior golem cousins and Celeste’s ability to shrink and fly made it easy for her to stay out of danger. Lydia and Shao worked together on one of the other corridors, and Miki and I worked on the last.

The reason I stuck with Miki was because of her spirit attacks. They worked well with my monster tamer job. I wanted to see if it was possible to take control of a few golems and turn them against each other. Also, I had to admit that Miki was the least efficient at killing monsters, which gave me more of a chance to earn experience. If I depended on Lydia or Shao, chances are I wouldn’t get any kills on my own.

That’s right, I couldn’t afford to be a support always. Sometimes, I had to leap right in!
