Omega Summoner

All of them could only process the information that is given to them. The brainwashing of a high ranking undead, the possibility of war, or worse the extinction of all that is living. Though through all the information given to them, they agreed that finding the demigod blacksmith would be the best.

The others agreed to search for the demigod blacksmith in full haste. They would still try and level up as much as possible so that they will not fall behind. Kabrakan is the likeliest one to easily find a clue because he told them that he has familiarity with some blacksmith due to him wearing down the durability of his equipment and always going to get it fixed.

“I know that my request is a tall order but the reward is greater than you might think. Now onto the reward that I promised you Champion Equinox. The unique undead would actually be in a location not far from this castle. A death knight would escort you to that area.” The undead king stated. .

“What is peculiar about this undead anyway?” Adrian asked as he is extremely curious.

“The only thing that I could describe it is mischievous and mysterious. It actually does not follow me despite being a king. Some of my knights even tried confrontation but they could not get near it. The area it resides in is protected by some kind of barrier that undead could not pass through.” The undead king stated.

Adrian suddenly became excited with the prospect of having this undead. It might be a special undead that resided here in Terra Mortuis. He decided to calm down as he might overhype himself and end up disappointed. The group decided to come along with Adrian to the location because even they are curious of this peculiar undead.

The death knight who escorted Adrian and the others is Castillo. It seems that Castillo’s level also increased from 100 to 150 which is a lot and fast if you think about it. Even NPCs in Pandemonium could move like players and conquer dungeons by themselves if they want to. They are like players but they level up faster because of the special rule that named NPCs should always be higher leveled than a player to some extent.

Castillo led them to a place about three or four miles away from the castle. There they saw a gigantic skull of a humanoid where half of it is buried in the ground. Only a skull could be seen and not the other bones of this humanoid creature which is weird but no one thought too much about it.

“I could only escort you up to here, Champion Equinox. That would be the entrance and inside is that peculiar undead.” Castillo stated as he stood his ground. He would wait for the Adrian to finish what he want to do and escort them back to the castle.

Adrian only nodded and suck in a breath of air before entering the skull’s mouth. The inside is actually not dark but is actually lit up nicely which is strange. Adrian immediately summoned his soulbounds out as he does not know what will jump at him.

They could see the inside of the giant skull but there is nothing there. Adrian thought that the undead king might have duped him but that would be unlikely for someone like a king. A while later when they were looking around, Adrian suddenly heard a giggle.

“Kekeke” a sound of a laugh is heard.

Adrian looked behind him and suddenly he saw a skull face staring at him. Adrian suddenly screamed out of reflex because of the jump scare. The others were alerted and readily brought out their weapons to see the threat.

Adrian reflexively slapped the skull face his hand just went through it. The being that surprised Adrian is actually wearing oversized black robes for its size while the only its skull face is visible. The skull face is actually more of the cutesy style rather than the creepy type.

Monster: Life Eater

Level: 50

HP: 100/100

MP: 100,000 / 100,000

Description: A strange undead that has unknown origins. Not much is known about this undead as they are rare and could not be easily found. Even necromancers do not know how to create this type of undead as they are said to be only created naturally.

The little thing is actually not attacking but rather just making sort of scary faces towards Adrian. Adrian though is shocked by the health pool of this undead as he might kill it with just one magical attack. Adrian really thought he has been duped because it is obvious that this undead is weak.

Adrian though could feel something strange with the undead. It clearly has no compulsion to hurt the living like any other wild undead which is strange. This might be what the undead king thought as strange because only those under the undead king could ignore their thirst to kill the living.

“I might as well get that thing. I should not waste my time here. I still have to store that yeti in a companion stone and give it to my big sister.” Adrian grumbled as he took out the Corrupted Spirit Stone.

[Do you wish to trap the Life Eater in the Corrupted Spirit Stone? Yeas or No]

Adrian agreed and the corrupted spirit stone suddenly exploded into fragments. The fragments suddenly became a chain and it shot towards the Life Eater. The incorporeal Life Eater is suddenly bounded and it even tried struggling. The Life Eater even looked like it is begging and crying though it could only do gestures to express itself.

“Why do I feel like I am the bad person here?” Adrian suddenly muttered.

“That is just your imagination.” Levin Cloud stated but he could not look Adrian in the eye.

The chains tightly bounded the Life Eater until it is pulled into Adrian’s hands. The shards of the Corrupted Spirit stone suddenly reassembled themselves into its crystalline form. The stone shook for a few moments before it finally stopped. The whole room became silent when that happened.

[You have successfully captured the Life Eater.]

[You need to bring the Corrupted Spirit Stone to a church in order to purify the bloodthirsty nature of the undead.]

“You just got it like that?!” Levin Cloud said as he is shocked.

“Even I am as speechless as you. It might be a weak undead seeing as I easily captured it.Ah!” Adrian suddenly exclaimed.

“Why is something wrong?” Levin Cloud hurriedly aske because Adrian suddenly screamed.

“I even used my advance corrupted spirit stone on it! I should have use the intermediate one first.” Adrian said as he forgot to use the intermediate one because he is too excited about a new prospective member to his soulbounds.

The others only ignored Adrian’s grumbling as they head for the exit. Castillo greeted them again and they headed back to the castle. They did not witness the giant humanoid skull disintegrate into particles because they are already a mile away from it.

Du’an sent everyone back to the main world so that they could start their search. Before the group dispersed, Cersei suddenly contacted Adrian and invited him to a special player event. Cersei invited Adrian to be a participant in the bidding.

What Cersei really want to do is entice Adrian with the auction so that he finds what he likes. If Adrian could not buy it then Evergreen will buy it for him. Due to the raid results of the hidden dungeon, the guild master of the Evergreen guild Anastacia has put Adrian in a high regard. Mariposa even supported Cersei’s vote to actively recruit Adrian.

“What should I do? Should I accept the offer?” Adrian asked the others.

“You should go. You do have a much more discerning eye and you might find something rare that others do not.” Levin Cloud stated.

“We can give you money now and you could bet for us. You will be like our proxy.” Peridot chimed in because she might find rare stones inside the auction.

“Yeah! There might be things we like that could help us later on.” Kabrakan added unknown that he just added fuel to the fire.

“I also think that is a great idea. There might be items that we usually do not see.” Vayu added as he is started to become more addicted to the game.

“Why does it feel like that I became an errand boy?” Adrian suddenly pointed out.

“Do not be stingy! We will search for the blacksmith while you are just lazing around and participating in an auction. You could do that for us at least.” Peridot once again started the attack.

Adrian could only slump his shoulders and agree because an auction is rare opportunity. They might see items there that are beneficial to them but useless to other players. Just like the saying that “One man’s trash is another man’s treasure”.

Adrian replied that he wanted to come and Cersei replied with the location. The auction would be held tomorrow at the imperial capital, Antares. The building that it will be held in is the merchant association’s headquarters. It seems that the player who arrange this auction might be a rather high ranking member of the merchant association.

“Anyways, it is held tomorrow so give me the money for the things you want. Apparently, the auction would be broadcasted so you could just chat me with the thing that you want.” Adrian stated.

“You should have just accepted so that the discussion did not have to trail too long.” Peridot rebutted which made Adrian dumbstruck.

“Yes, Ma’am!” Adrian said with a salute as he bid goodbye to the others.

Adrian ripped a scroll so that he would be teleported instantly to the Paradox Planes. He would tell the elders on what is happening as they also might have an idea about this demigod blacksmith.
