Chương 20: Golem
The team came up with a strategy for how they will tackle the cave.
You see, most of the beasts here are in the Refinement Stage and magic beasts don't create sparks as mana flows through their entire body. The only way for Magic Beasts to get stronger was by having purer mana.
It depended on how powerful the beast was that decided who would fight it; if it was relatively weak, then Adonis was to fight, but if the beast were stronger, then Barrett or Juniper would fight it. If the Beasts were very strong then Mila or Lena would face it.
Needless to say, it worked well, and the team was even more surprised by Adonis's strength since he didn't even need to use his spells to fight the beasts and only needed to use his ki to kill them.
Walking further into the cave, the team was met at a crossroads. Mila checked the map they had of the cave, nothing on the map said anything about the left path.
"We're going to right everybody."
Mila said, but Barrett's curiosity got the best of him.
"Wait, Mila, why don't we try to go down the left path?"
"...Are you nuts?"
"No, look, who knows what may be down there. There may be treasure, a place full of magic crystals, or maybe even the "Horizon Flower" there!"
"...You think the Horizon Flower is gonna be there...?"
"...Maybe not, but why don't we at least go look?"
"Yeah, I mean it can't hurt to look right?"
Juniper supported Barrett's decision but Mila was not having it.
"Look you two!-"
When Mila was about to lecture Barrett and Juniper, she realized two people were missing.
"Uhm, where are Lena and Adonis?"
Mila was in front of the right entrance and there was no way for Adonis and Lena to pass by her without her noticing, so that means that they could only go down one path.
"...I hate you all..."
Mila muttered to herself, but Barrett and Juniper heard what she said and didn't try to say anything to that.
Mila ran down the left path along with Barrett and Juniper and eventually reached the end, where she saw Adonis and Lena in a cavern.
Mila was prepared to slam these two heads into the ground, but the only thing that stopped her was that when she saw the cavern, it was covered in Magic crystals.
This amazed the entire team as they continued to stare at it.
Barrett was the first one to snap out of it as he realized the amount of money they came across.
"WE'RE RICH!!"
Barrett yelled, snapping everyone else out of their trance.
Mila collected her thoughts.
"Wait! We shouldn't go in so recklessly, let us be careful and observe-"
"Barrett left."
Adonis spoke.
"Huh?"
"Barrett is getting the Magic crystals as we speak."
Adonis pointed inside the cavern, and the team saw Barret placing large chunks of Magic Crystals in his Spatial bag.
"...I'm gonna kill you all..."
Mila said, not even bothering to lower her voice, and stomped her way into the cavern. Juniper, Adonis, and Lena were in a cold sweat as Mila said that and followed her like servants.
Mila was prepared to pound Barrett's head in with the giant Magic Crystal he picked up, but, then as soon as all of them entered the cavern, a rumbling occurred.
All of them looked at where the rumbling was coming from and they saw a bright orb of light at the other end of the cavern. The crystals around them start moving toward the bright light and making a human-like shape.
Soon, they saw a Crystal Golem form in front of their eyes as the bright light orb became its eye and looked toward the team.
Mila immediately prepared to fight and ordered the team.
"BARRETT, JUNIPER STAY CLOSE BEHIND ME! LENA, STAY RIGHT NEXT TO ME! ONLY CAST YOUR SPELLS WHEN I SAY GO!!"
The team immediately followed what Mila said and the eye of the Golem grew brighter and brighter.
Mila knew what this meant and slammed her hands to the ground casting her spell.
"EARTH'S PROTECTION!!"
A massive amount of earth covered the team and created a big dome around them, as the Golem set off a Mana Laser right at the barrier, causing streams of mana to cover the barrier, slowly breaking it.
Once the Mana Laser stopped, the barrier had mostly fallen apart, but Mila and the team didn't look hurt at all.
"GO!!"
Lena, Juniper, and Barrett set off their spells.
"Cyclone Drill!"
"Bullet Torrent!!"
"PRYO BOMB!"
These spells all shot at incredible speeds and hit the Golem in its chest, left shoulder, and right side.
This took off the left arm and put two huge holes in Golem, the team was happy with the result, but that immediately washed away when the Golem healed the injuries as fast as they came.
The team was shocked at its healing factor, but stay calm since they knew if they panicked they would die.
Meanwhile, Adonis was staying at the very back watching what was happening since Mila didn't give him any orders he decided to stay put, but this gave Adonis time to think of a way to beat the Golem. Adonis saw the high regenerative ability of the Golem and knew they needed a one-shot kill, after thinking that, he took into account everyone's magic, and immediately a plan started to form in his mind. He looked behind the Golem to see how much space was behind it.
The Golem was preparing another Mana Laser but also swung its arms down on the team. Mila used Earth's Protection again but also prepared another spell.
"Earth Assualt!!"
A bunch of large spikes sprouted out of the earth and launched toward the Golem, causing its lower half to be stuck to the wall behind it.
"Juniper, Barrett, destroy its arms!!"
Juniper and Barrett used the spells they used before and struck the arms of the Golem, causing the arms to fall off, and preventing the Golem to be able to free itself.
"LENA!"
"I know!"
Lena used her 3-star Speed ki.
"Gale Blitz!"
Lena using her movement technique, moved so fast that a loud boom was heard.
Running at the speed of sound, she ran up the earth spikes and the Golem to get in front of its head in an instant.
Lena then used her most powerful close-range spell.
"Shattered Barrier"
Lena's blade was covered in highly dense wind, then moved with such speed and precision that the naked eye couldn't track it.
The Golem stopped for a quick second before the head was then obliterated and the earth behind the head was also hit by the remaining energy, causing a giant crater to appear.
The only thing left after the spell was the orb of light itself as it was far harder than the Magic Crystals.
Lena fell towards the ground but for a safe landing, she used another spell.
"Windfall"
A burst of wind softened her landing and the wind made her look like a fairy landing.
Juniper and Barrett were amazed by Lena's performance since it was far above what any 3-spark could do.
However, Mila grinned, since she knew of Lena's strength beforehand, the only problem was that she was one of the only people to know it because Lena wants to hide her true strength for some reason.
"You did great, Lena."
Mila complimented Lena.
"Yeah, I know."
Lena said as if it was obvious.
Lena looked at Barret and Juniper and they were staring at her with eyes of admiration.
Lena grimaced at that and looked beyond them but found no one there.
"Hey, where's Ado-"
Suddenly, the team felt trembling again; and they all looked at the Golem.
The Golem was still alive.
