Bab 55: The Hidden Bloodline

The Mud Knight's HP went down to 23% because of Kanlaon's concentrated attacks but Kanlaon's HP also went down to 30% because of the reckless attacks towards the Mud Knight. Sirius barked as if saying to Kanlaon that he is fine and Kanlaon manage to escape his enraged state. Adrian now noticed that the soulbounds are not just simple AI monsters that are in servitude of him but the soulbounds have super advance AI that could make judgement and even show emotions. The special AI of the soulbounds should be the reason that Summoners are only allowed to own on average nine soulbounds: three for the base job class and an additional two per job class advancement. Summoners could still seal monsters even if they already have a full slot but cannot use the monsters that are not dedicated as a soulbound. Since the summoner class is just a newly added class, there has not been much known about it and the rank 1 summoner Mariposa is only at level 72 even with the full support of her guild.

The Mud Knight was toppled by Kanlaon and was struggling to get up because Kanlaon would strike it back down with its tail. It seems that because of the hardened armor the Mud Knight can now be dealt with physical damage although it still has high resistance. Still with it being able to be pinned down using brute force, Adrian could now do what he imagined and Sirus could now join the battle. Adrian flew up in the air and used Assault Charge and increased his momentum using gravity and his wings as thrusters. Others would think that this would be suicide and a waste of a weapon because of durability but his demi-gauntlets have infinite durability in Geoforce mode which is why Adrian could be this reckless.

Adrian directly hit the chest of the Mud Knight and heard a crack. The Mud Knight's HP directly went to 10% because of the successive attacks of the party and Adrian's high damage that pierced the physical defense of the Mud Knight. The Mud Knight grabbed Adrian who was suffering from velocity sickness and threw him away. The Mud Knight was able to stand with pieces of its hardened mud armor crumbling and a core was seen embedded in the chest of the Mud Knight. The core was spherical and had a circumference of one meter. It had a muddy brown color and would shine if light hits it. The party finally found the golem's core that all golems have to function but the armor was regenerating at a rapid pace.

Adrian upon seeing that the armor was regenerating immediately used Chrono Lag onto the golem and was happy to see that even the armor regeneration was slowed down. He quickly cast a spacemine on top of the area of the core and immediately detonated it. The Mud Knight was dealt immense damage and a screech was heard from the golem like two gears scraping each other that the party had to cover their ears because it was unbearable.

[You have dealt 51,521 damage to the Great Mud Knight Golem due to attacking its weak spot.]

A golem's core is its Achille's heel because it is where its derives its energy from. It seems that the golem felt extreme pain from the attack to its core.

"Hurry and finish him while the core is exposed!" Adrian shouted.

The party all converge their attacks at the golem's core that almost been covered by hardened mud but was blocked by the shield of mud that the golem's sword transformed into. Yet, the golem started crumbling and Adrian managed to know the reason why.

[Sirius dealt 363,894 damage to the Great Mud Knight Golem using its skill Ragnarok and attacking its weak spot.]

[Your Soulbound Sirius has awakened its hidden bloodline because of experiencing the world of Limbo.]

Adrian was happy and shocked by the news he read while his bestfriend was looking at him at a new light.

" He is becoming a monster and he is only at the level 20s." Marlon thought while he smiled wryly and told himself that he must do his best and looked at the quest that would do just that.

[Player Equinox has leveled up]

[Saena has leveled up]

[Sirius has leveled up]

[Kanlaon has leveled up]

[Party member Levin Cloud has leveled up]

[Acquired the Epic skillbook 'Execution Blade']

[Acquired the Great Mud Golem Recipe]

[Acquired the Core of the Great Mud Knight Golem]

[Acquired the Rare skillbook 'Mudpit']

The party received immense experience points that even leveled up Marlon who had his experience bar 80% filled. The best friends decided what to do with the drops first before they head to the next level that would probably the boss fight. Marlon would get the rare skillbook 'Mudpit' because Adrian could not use it. They decided to auction the Epic skillbook 'Execution Blade' because they cannot use it anyway.

Name: Execution Blade Skillbook

Tier: Epic

Description: A book containing the skillbook for the Knight Class , Execution Blade.

Effect: A blade that contains pure killing intent that could kill the target if struck. Has a 10% chance to execute the target and increases to 30% if the target is below 50% HP. Deals 500% physical damage and bleeding if the target is not executed. Execution does not work on Boss Monsters, Named NPC enemies and in PVP.

Cooldown: 1 hour

Cast Time: Instant

Mana Cost: 500 MP

Condition: Knight Job Class Tree

The execute was a good condition but cannot be used to kill boss monster, named NPCs and even in duels and is class specific but still it is an Epic Skillbook which would still have high demand. There are also many users of the Knight Job Class and would love to have a powerful skill at their disposal since Knights are considered a balance class which has good offense and defense but lacks powerful skills. Thankfully the auction option is not blocked inside a dungeon. You could place an item for auction but cannot buy items inside a dungeon so that the players would prepare for the dungeon instead of just buying items that are necessary for dungeon conquering. The best friends decided to do a bidding option for the skill since they do not know the exact price but they put a base price of 100 gold which is the base price for Epic skillbooks.

Adrian felt slight attraction to the Core of the Great Mud Knight Golem and decided to get it. He tried giving the Great Mud Golem recipe to Marlon but the latter declined because he was not interested in alchemy. Golems cannot become soulbounds because golems are not really alive but instead could be made by Alchemist and is considered as consumable soldiers but making one takes time and tons of materials which is why good golems are pricey because they are considered as an item that could be kept inside tge inventory.

" If you are not going to use it. I know an alchemist that specializes in golem creation. He would pay a lot just for an Epic Golem recipe. We could even sell this recipe for 1000 gold at minimum because we even saw its power." Marlon stated.

" I'll hold onto it then and try to find a buyer. If presented the chance we could even put it onto an auction house because the recipe is upgradeable." Adrian added.

As the party was restoring their stamina and mana, Adrian decided to look at Sirius's status and was shocked.

Name: Sirius

Species: Demon Wolf (Fenrir Strain)

Lvl: 19

HP: 2000/2000

MP: 1500/1500

Exp: 86.3%/100%

Skills: Active Skills(Expand)

Passive Skills(Expand)

Sirius now had a new modifier in his name. Adrian was excited because he knows what a Fenrir is. He immediately checked the evolution requirements.

Evolution: Fenrir

Evolution Requirements:

a). Level 150

b.) Acquire the title 'Alpha' (Completed)

c.) Acquire the item 'Shackles of the Gods'

d.) Kill the World Boss 'Fenris'

Adrian was expecting difficult evolution requirements but did not expect hopeless ones. World Bosses are not easy to kill because some have territories while some even roam around the world. There were even rumors in the forums that a top guild managed to find a Level 100 World Boss but was instead guild wiped even though they had player in the 140s and from the level requirements it seems that this Fenris would be above level 150. Adrian just sighed and put the requirements in the back of his head because it would still take time before he could reach those level. He then checked Sirius' new skill.

Skill: Ragnarok(Degraded)

Tier: Legendary

Effect: Deals 500% pure physical damage to the target with 50% physical armor penetration. Cannot be avoided. The user will be weakened for ten seconds after the skill has hit the target.

Cooldown: 6 hours

Cast Time: Instant

Mana Cost: 5% of max HP and 700 MP

The skill was powerful but had serious backlash and high cooldown. It would be accurate to say that it is a finishing move. It also has the degraded modifier which means it is not complete probably because Sirius was not a Fenrir yet and he is even extinguishing his health to even use the skill.

The party then stood up and walked towards the entrance.
