Chapter 162 162. GOLEMS
Astonishment. This was all Noah could currently feel. He also felt overwhelmed by his own aura, and felt he would drown in it, if he didn’t do something.
Luckily, his body easily pulled it off, allowing him enough thinking space to marvel even more at that sight.
A kilometer radius of the plain seemed to have been tainted with a black substance exuding hundreds of aura’s in tier 3.
A feeling of excitement mixed with pride, swole in Noah’s gut. He felt he could get away with anything if he pulled this out of his sleeve.
The magical beasts in the midst of his illusion stood still, their terrified eyes scanning the area for any escape route.
Finding none, they simply stood still until the auras got so sensually deafening, that they were forced to launch attacks.
Needless to say the illusions vanished like black mist, but they quickly moved in accordance to Noah’s will.
The illusions were solid enough to withstand the wind currents around them, but nothing more. The mere grazing of a knife would instantly destroy them. But the ability had potential.
Noah could already ascertain that a time would come in his existence, when the illusions would be tangible enough to withstand real attacks, and would be able to fight with him.
The possibilities were simply limitless. He would have a real army at hand, the only problem would be controlling each and every one of them.
The figures could be controlled individually, but their numbers were too great. Noah stopped counting when they surpassed 2000.
He couldn’t currently dream of manipulating them individually; each one having a different role!
His illusion disappeared and reappeared due to the beasts rampage. He wondered what the drawback for that ability would be, and he got his answer soon enough.
Mental fatigue.
After a few hundred illusions had been destroyed and recreated, Noah felt his soul core protest.
His mind experienced a few mild tremors, a slight headache even around the corner. Those side-eftects were enough to affirm his need to stop the beasts.
His figure shot towards the escaping creatures, but within the Incredible numbers of his illusion, Noah’s moving figure wasn’t noticeable.
He soon arrived behind the scrambling beasts, but suddenly halted his rapid steps.
His blue eyes never left the rampaging beats, but he didn’t take any step further.
With a sigh of relief; Noah sat on the frozen seat he created on the spot.
Seeing as he tested new abilities, he decided to check out more of them.
‘Know your enemies and yourself, and you’ll be unstoppable’ This was an old saying on earth.
[Frozen Golem’s[Active]: When activated you create 2 Golem’s capable of tier 3 power.
Cost: 300SE, Duration: Until they are destroyed, Cooldown: N/A]
At Noah’s command, a whitish magical circle expanded beneath his sitting figure, spreading out for a few tens of meters.
The magical circle had no resemblance to what the humans utilized, but he didn’t mind that detail.
Two large figures soon emerged out of the magical circle, to stand next to Noah’s sitting figure.
The golems were tall, towering over 17ft in height. Their arms were larger than the heads of two fully grown humans, and their icy structures featured sharp edge’s on spots like their knees, elbows, fists, and even their faces.
They were armed to the teeth, literally.
The golems were so cold; the ground beneath them froze, and a cold white essence could be seen exiting their structures like smoke.
The golems had no specific facial features, but he could see two empty spots that seemed to be their eyes, and nothing else.
Their figures exuded a power level at the bottom of tier 3, which made Noah doubt their ability to carry out his orders.
The fleeing beasts, whether he liked it or not, possessed power in lower-stage of tier 3, even past the halfway mark.
Their resilience would be Incredible. Only monsters like him being able to take them out easily.
Or so he thought.
“Go,” Noah whispered, and his golems shot towards the rapidly escaping beasts.
The beasts had almost left the range of his consciousness during the few seconds he used in Inspecting his spells, but Noah cleared a path for his creations, and they surprisingly arrived at the beasts positions pretty quickly.
“They’re fast!,” Noah couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow while coldly Inspecting that scene.
‘Is this due to the energy that created them?,’ Noah questioned the system.
[[Yes]]
The system replied, and Noah’s former doubts soon vanished when the magical beasts and his golems engaged in combat.
Noah felt surprised to see his golems create makeshift shields to fend off the attacks of their opponents.
The areas around them froze at their mere passage, as they carried out their masters will with brutal efficiency.
A tinge of pity rose in Noah’s heart for the beasts, at what he considered slaughter. The golems were performing far beyond his expectations.
Although pieces of their body parts had been lost in the ten minutes long battle, his golems stepped out victorious. .𝚌o𝚖
“Damn!,” Noah couldn’t help but exclamain. The ice element had gained his full respect, it deserved to be rare, and he felt his whole being swell with pride at the reality of his power.
Running his fingers across their cool surface, Noah ignored the missing limbs, and suddenly delivered a powerful punch to one of his golems.
Needless to say it shattered into a million pieces, tiny shards of ice spreading everywhere, a burst of cold air washing over that spot.
The other golem remained still, its bulky frame soon receiving a powerful punch from its creator, and it also exploded.
With a satisfied smile, Noah straightened his figure. Although he had destroyed them relatively easily, he couldn’t deny the sturdiness of their structure.
Noah almost couldn’t believe that only 300SE created those monsters. It didn’t seem fair in the slightest, but he didn’t care. He would definitely spam that skill whenever he was in a sticky situation.
Having deactivated the illusions long before the fighting finished, Noah’s eyes fell on the frozen craters in the distance.
He wondered why tier 3’s were that powerful. On Earth, they would be considered demi-gods, as their spells would certainly devastate small settlements. And the mere mention of their name would strike fear Into the hearts of men. They would even be respected to a degree of nigh worship.
Yet on Creagar, Individuals with such power levels weren’t nearly the strongest. They had three tiers of power above them, each far more powerful than the last.
A red octahedral core suddenly shot towards his position, and he quickly stored it. The buffalo was dead.
With that done, Noah resumed his journey to Vonol, he had only left Keriele a few hours ago. His calculations to reach Vonol remained on point.
Noah’s rapidly moving figure, still covered in Muliix’s material, soon crossed the beautiful plain to arrive on a forested path.
Without the slightest thought of stopping, Noah utilized his Incredible stamina to run as fast as his body could naturally take him. His agility at that Incredible speed; increasing exponentially.
