283 Undying Goliath
A few minutes back,
‘What the hell! What is the use of the rewards from clearing the first floor if you can’t activate them?’
Outside the gateway, Leo, hiding in the secret dimensional space, cursed the remnant spirit of the Goliath Tower.
For clearing all the halls on the first floor, the Undead Goliath received two rewards.
One was the Blood Devil Goliath’s Bloodline which was sealed by the remnant spirit, and it would be activated when the Undead Goliath walks out of the Goliath Tower.
And the second reward was the Ancient Devil Cultivation Technique that could be learned only when the Undead Goliath becomes the supreme-ranked being.
Those two rewards were useless if the participant died on the second or third floors.
‘Since I can revive Gredor, I don’t think he would lose those rewards; however, for other participants, it would be useless if they failed to clear the Goliath Tower.’
Leo felt the Blood Goliath’s expectation of his inheritor was so high that it was almost impossible for the young devil goliaths to obtain it.
‘Huh? He is not giving the rewards for clearing the halls on the second floor?’
Leo was already furious at the Blood Goliath for making it impossible for the Undead Goliath to use the bloodline or the cultivation technique. Now, he learned that the remnant spirit wanted to delay the rewards.
‘Compared to the remnant spirit of the Blood Devil Goliath, the War God’s remnant spirit was many times better.’
Leo wanted to rush into the Goliath Tower and beat the sh*t out of the Blood Devil Goliath for making such damned rules.
However, Leo knew he could not do it since the real Blood Devil Goliath was not in the Goliath Tower, and it was only a remnant spirit..
Moreover, Leo knew he was not powerful enough to fight the Blood Devil Goliath, a God-level existence.
….
‘Master….help…me.’
Suddenly, Leo heard a weak voice in his head.
‘This Blood Devil Goliath is….’
Leo cursed the Blood Devil Goliath while thinking of something to help the Undead Goliath that could make him stronger.
‘I don’t have anything that could strengthen or power up the undead on me. Even if I have something, there is no way I can enter…wait a second.’
Suddenly, Leo thought of something, and in the next second, a small strong appeared in his hand.
‘Ding,
Do you want to upgrade your talent [Call of the Undead] to level 2 supreme class using the Supreme Upgrade Stone?
Soon, the system asked him whether he wanted to upgrade his talent.
As of now, Leo knew only two ways of upgrading a talent.
One was by fulfilling the upgrade requirements of the talent, and the second was by using the upgrade stones.
Even though the [Call of the Undead] upgrade requirements were not hard and could be easily completed, Leo didn’t have the time as he wanted to see whether upgrading his talent would strengthen his undead summons or not.
Therefore, he decided to use one of the two Supreme Upgrade Stones to upgrade that talent.
‘Ding,
The host’s talent [Call of the Undead] is upgraded to level 2 supreme class.
‘Ding,
The host can bless sentience to his second undead creature.
In no time, his talent upgraded to level 2 supreme class and without wasting time, Leo transmitted his voice to the Undead Goliath.
‘Can you feel any changes in your body?’
Leo didn’t know whether it was useful, but doing something was better than nothing. Therefore, as soon as the talent was upgraded, he asked the Undead Goliath.
….
Inside the Goliath Tower,
As soon as Leo upgraded his talent [Call of the Undead], the Undead Goliath’s body emitted a white halo around its body.
His external and internal injuries were healing at a rapid pace, and at the same time, his strength also increased.
‘Kacha’
Suddenly, a crisp sound came from the Undead Goliath’s body and from that moment onward, the Undead Goliath was officially a supreme-ranked being.
<A miracle…it’s definitely a miracle>
The remnant spirit of the Blood Devil Goliath was excited and nearly cried to see the sudden breakthrough of the Undead Goliath.
Of course, it was not a miracle or a heaven’s blessing; instead, the Undead Goliath determined to clear the Goliath Tower along with the boost from the upgrade in Leo’s [Call of the Undead].
Another reason was that the Undead Goliath was at peak rank 9 for a while now, and it was not surprising for the Undead Goliath to achieve a breakthrough under his current situation.
…..
‘Ding,
Congratulations to the host’s Undead Goliath for not giving up on the fight and becoming a supreme-ranked being.
‘Ding,
He will be rewarded with a title [Undying Goliath].
‘Ding,
His [Ancient Goliath King’s Bloodline] is fully awakened, and his [Blood Devil Goliath’s Bloodline] is unsealed.
As the Undead Goliath finished his breakthrough into the supreme rank, Leo received a series of system notifications that made him pleasantly surprised.
‘What? Even my undead summons could receive titles?’
Leo learned two new things today. One, he could receive the same rewards that his sentient undead summons receives, and the second one was that his undead summons could receive their own title.
‘What’s more, his first bloodline is fully awakened, and the bloodline sealed by the Blood Devil Goliath was unsealed. Now, it will be a piece of cake for Gredor to kill the final boss.’
Leo checked the information on the two bloodlines and the title, and he stopped worrying about the Undead Goliath any longer because that’s how powerful his Undead Goliath had become after the breakthrough into the supreme rank.
‘Ding,
Title Name: Undying Goliath (Passive).
Effect: When the user is thoroughly defeated by his opponent or a group of opponents, the title will be triggered automatically. It temporarily makes the Goliath immune to all physical and energy attacks while increasing his physical strength by ten times.
Note: At supreme rank, the Goliath can maintain this state for one minute.
Cooldown: One day.
‘Ding,
Bloodline Name: Ancient Goliath King.
Effect: The strength of all Goliaths will be suppressed by 25 percent when the bloodline is activated.
‘Ding,
Bloodline Name: Blood Devil Goliath.
Effect: When activated, the Goliath’s blood will burn and increase the user’s physical strength by ten times for ten minutes.
Note: The Bloodlines can’t be stacked together.
Even though he had already checked the information, Leo could not help but go through the information of two bloodlines and the title for the second time.
‘Why is the effect of the Blood Devil Goliath Bloodline of my Undead Goliath different from my bloodline?’
Even though Leo’s Blood Devil Goliath Bloodline was not fully awakened yet, the system had already shown him the effect of the bloodline when it was fully awakened.
‘I think that bloodline is meant for Goliath and since I am a human, the effect has been reduced by 50 percent.’
That was the only conclusion Leo came up with after thinking for a moment.
‘Anyway, let’s not think about the partially awakened bloodline.’
Leo shook his head and thought, ‘I wonder, what type of rewards my Undead Goliath will get after clearing the Goliath Tower? I am also curious whether I can receive the rewards again like before?’
