156 End of the Dungeon (1)
“What should we do?” Myria said as she glanced at all the powerful monsters in the area.
It would be impossible for them to fight them. Arthur was the only one with enough strength, however. Could he clean the floor while the two of them waited there?
They were in a safe area, away from the volcano dangers, as well as the fire golems 6 meters tall, and thick like a rock.
“Maybe I will try to clear the floor first, and then after that you can return to the village from the 2nd floor and wait there.”
They both agreed to his request. Of course, Myria and Lilia wanted to explore the rest of the dungeon to see if there were things that interested both of them. However, their life was more important than that.
Arthur turned his gaze away from them, looking at the fire golems from afar. A floor made around the element of fire. It wasn’t something good to use against him, who possessed the Dragon’s Fire Body at its maximum level.
He made his way towards the volcano, and the fire golems there got to notice him, running towards him with all their might. A few of these golems had weapons, such as clubs made of the volcano rocks, but most of them relied on their bare hands to hit people.
“Come to me, baby!”
An urge to fight rose within, and the sensation of danger made Arthur’s adrenaline peak, reaching extraordinary levels. Who these meager fire golems thought they were? Trying to step in the same stage as the lord of dragons? What a joke.
The first golem came throwing a punch, however, Arthur was not someone to mess with, and he threw one of his own. Both fists collided, and despite all odds, the fire golem, who was at least 5 times bigger than Arthur, was the one retreating a few steps after the impact.
Even Myria and Lilia, who were watching from afar, gasped their mouths. They heard from others how strong Arthur was, but that was beyond their expectations. How did that youth grow so much in power in that short time?
They did not know Arthur had a system, and one that was getting more overpowered. Anyway, after the first collision of attacks, Arthur did not stop.
It was dumb to let the enemy recover, so the first thing he did after winning the exchange of blows was to send more of his own. He punched like a maniac, one after another, hitting all parts of the fire golem’s body, but aiming at the head.
The sounds of such fierce battle echoed through the dungeon floor, and before the rest of the enemies arrived, that first golem was already dead, broken into pieces. The fire that had once shone in its body was now gone, and only rocks remained.
All the other fire golems stopped after witnessing the scene. They were creatures, but they weren’t dumb. A powerful enemy was in front of them, however backing down was impossible.
To where could they run? This dungeon floor had been their home for a long time, and if there was a way for them to escape, then they would have done it long ago. The only thing they could do was to fight and win.
The fire golem that had a club on its hands stepped forward, slamming the huge club towards Arthur. That club weighed a ton, and even Arthur would get hurt if it hit him.
Arthur wasn’t dumb to let that club hit him, so he dodged it using his high agility, an attribute that these golems did not seem to have.
He jumped sideways, avoiding the club attack, however, that was just the start of his barrage of attacks. Arthur exerted the strength on his legs, jumping high enough to reach the head of that golem. He twisted his body mid-air, sending a powerful kick to the head, demolishing it.
With one strike, a golem was dead. There were still at least 20 around him, and their anger increased after witnessing two of them die right in front of their eyes.
The golems all charged towards Arthur, and getting locked in place by that many monsters wouldn’t be a pleasing experience. Therefore, Arthur opted to use his flight spell, going up to avoid the attacks of all the monsters.
From above, he pondered how should he deal with these golems? He wanted to devour them as it would be the fastest way, but Myria and Lilia were watching from afar, and he did not want to expose his secrets to them.
It had been a long, long time since he saw them, different from Jane, Wisa, and Kai, who were with him every day. What if these two were not as friendly as they seemed? Arthur was not a dumb kid anymore to trust in everyone, especially in pretty faces.
Fire-type spells would be useless against such creatures, however Arthur still had more things in his arsenal, such as the mysterious weapon Merethyl gave him, and also his wood-type magic.
There was also that strange sword he could not wield it.
“Bill told me he’s focusing on magical smithing, and his family is famous for it. Perhaps he can help me unfold some mysteries of that sword?” Arthur thought.
A simple wave of his hand, and a tier 5 spell, trapped all the golems with vines. The ground near the volcano had high temperatures, as well as the bodies of those golems, so the vines would trap them at most for 3 seconds, but that was more than enough for Arthur to cast another spell.
Myria could not believe Arthur cast a tier 5 spell with such ease, but the next scene made her even more scared.
Arthur used all the three seconds to cast another wood-type spell, but one he used more of his wooden essence, turning the spell into a tier 6.
Behind him, a sunflower emerged from the ground. It was so big it looked like a small hill. The sunflower turned his head towards the fire golems, sending a beam of light that destroyed not only all the golems, but the surrounding area.
