Chapter 1931: Storm Chasm II
The mid boss being bound became quite easy to defeat for Piggy Bank. It was easy in the sense that all he needed to do was fight it using numerous Money Punch skills. All he had to do is continuously punch at the Grand Storm Guard as it crumbled into dust.
[Your party member, Piggy Bank, has successfully defeated the Grand Storm Guard.]
[You did not get experience due to the fact that you are extremely high leveled compared to this dungeon.]
Adrian did not think too much about the experience as he has already gotten what he needed from Piggy Bank. He was more worried that he will not get the Spell Harmony Passive skill as it was very difficult for him to cast powerful magical energies at the same time. It might have been easy to get he passive skill if he can cast basic magic elements, but he cannot do so.
"I managed to defeat the mid boss! Although, I must admit that it is a bit too underhanded and low effort." Piggy Bank stated as he felt that he did not do much in the fight earlier.
"We can expand your fighting sense later as the most important thing now is to clear this dungeon and get the item that you need. A god or goddess has tampered with this dungeon, and I do not want to know what could happen if time accumulates. A powerful monster might be born if we wait to long which is why we need to clear it. Sirius! We are going to blitz it." Adrian stated as he called upon Sirius.
"Yes, master." Sirius answered as he appeared from Piggy Bank's shadow.
Sirius caught Adrian and Piggy Bank using shadows and placed them on top of his back. He then moved towards the newly created entrance that led to the lower floors. Sirius charged forward with no problem and slaughtered any monster that come his way. This was the Sirius Bus that Adrian created, and Piggy Bank is experiencing.
Piggy Bank could hear numerous notifications as the monsters that infested the lower floors called the Elite Storm Guards are destroyed with just Sirius passing by. The shadows and Sirius' claws made easy work of the monsters. Piggy Bank's experience as a player started to skyrocket and he leveled up to 250 when they finally reached the boss room floor.
The boss room floor was different as there was no mobs littering the entrance before the boss room. The entire large room was empty and only the door that led to the boss room was present. Adrian thought it was strange as there would usually be monsters making sure that they protected the boss monster. The setup of the dungeon was incredibly altered, and the strength of a boss is more powerful if there are no monsters guarding it.
Players have already hypothesized that the overall strength of a dungeon floor is divided between traps and monsters. The lesser monsters in a floor would result in stronger monsters in that floor. If a dungeon floor does not have any traps, it also increases the power of a monster. This is why Adrian is a bit hesitant to open the boss room as it is the only monster in the floor.
"Are you ready?" Adrian asked Piggy Bank as he did not immediately enter the room since he has an inkling that he cannot join the battle again.
Adrian believed that the trick that was applied on the mid boss could be done to the dungeon boss as well. If such a thing happens then Adrian might lead Piggy Bank to his doom should he opened the boss door immediately. He made sure that Piggy Bank gets enough rest and is even treated by Saena to the highest degree.
"The healing effect is so nice! My skin even became glossy and shiny due to the great effects." Piggy Bank stated as his plumb face now glistened like a well-polished mirror.
"Since you are ready, let us go to the boss room." Adrian stated as he opened the boss room and both of them entered.
Both Adrian and Piggy Bank vanished from the front of the door as they opened the boss room door. When the both of them regained their sight, they are now on top of a large floating platform. The entire floor changed to a large floating platform and the door out of the boss room vanished.
[You have entered the Storm Chasm Boss Room.]
[You have been transported to a place that cannot be escaped unless you have defeated the boss or died.]
[A special rule has been placed on the boss room.]
[All beings that are fifty levels above the boss can only deal 0.001% of their maximum health regardless of attacks.]
[All beings affected by the special rule will move 50% slower.]
Adrian felt a very heavy energy suppress him as the dungeon itself made it difficult for him to move. There is a heavy energy suppression that made it even difficult to move his eyes. All parts of Adrian's body slowed down despite his fierce resistance. Thunder rumbled from above as if it was laughing at Adrian's current state.
Adrian looked around the boss room and it was an open sky with a large floating platform. He can already tell that the enemy they would be facing is a being that can fly. He knew that Piggy Bank would be unable to fully exert his power on a fast and flying enemy. Without Adrian's aid, Piggy Bank might be killed in the dungeon, but he was actually smiling.
"This is actually good training." Adrian thought as he can still use his mind and Paradox to create the energies of Origin Magic.
"Where is the boss monster?" Piggy Bank asked as he could not see any monster in the area.
Just as Piggy Bank thought that there is no boss monster, a figure suddenly rose from the abyss below. A large shadow suddenly flew up high which caught the attention of both Adrian and Piggy Bank. A large flying eagle shadow could be seen up high and is actually harnessing the power of lightning from the dark clouds.
Monster Name: Golem Relic of Z
Monster Tier: Legendary
Monster Type: Storm Guard
Monster Level: 290
HP: 100%
MP: 100%
Description: A powerful golem said to be a relic of a powerful god. It is said to have awakened a consciousness, but it can only follow the commands of the god that created it. It has the appearance of a large, winged creature that the god that created it used to assume. It can harness the power of lightning and store it in its body like a fuel. It can also release powerful electric storms in order to defeat any that stands in the way of the god that created it.
The large, winged golem took the form of a stone eagle, and it is coated with a powerful lightning aura. The golem itself had the size of five meters and a wingspan of twenty meters. It was incredibly huge when compared to the bodies of Adrian and Piggy Bank.
"It is a flying monster. Of course, it would be." Adrian thought as he can already determine who is the god that was interfering with this quest.
"Guild Leader Equinox... what should I do? I cannot fly like you, and you are incredibly depowered as well." Piggy Bank stated.
"Just do your best, Piggy Bank. The strategy would be the same as usual. Sirius!" Adrian stated as he tried to summon his soulbounds.
[A powerful external force has influenced the space of the boss room using a relic of a dead god.]
[Summoned units cannot be summoned into the boss room.]
The magic circle that Sirius was supposed to come out of suddenly dispersed. Adrian even received some backlash, but it was minimal to the point that only one percent of her health diminished. All of Adrian's attempt in summoning his soulbounds vanished.
"I think we are going to have a big problem." Piggy Bank shouted as he also saw the notifications.
[There can no longer be any interference from the outside as the dungeon has become unstable.]
"I guess someone is angry at my words. Talk about a sore loser. I guess I expected it as these are the gods from that side after all." Adrian stated as he used Chrono Shift on his mouth in order to speak normally.
"Kiyoow!" The Golem Relic of Z shouted as it seemed to have reacted to Adrian's provocation and charged towards him with great speed.
"Guild Master Equinox!" Piggy Bank stated as he charged his Money Punch, but he was too late.
"This much is still bearable and such good practice!" Adrian stated as he spoke in normal speed.
[You have accumulated great force in your body.]
"Force Crash!" Adrian stated as a powerful force suddenly escaped his body and slammed towards the Golem Relic of Z.
