The Golem Mage

Arthur and Brandon have rushed straight to the seventh level of the tower, and where each facing ten Tier 1 demonic beast at the very peak, while Agnes was at the fifth level and seems to have reached her limits

Though knight just finished the fourth level of the tower but he was resting and trying to accumulate enough mana before he moved onto the next stage

The gravity seems to have the highest effects on him the most among the whole gang since he trained towards having a much lethal attack than training his body strength

Though he might be really strong but facing such fierce demonic beast under that amount of gravity pressure, it was really proving hard for him to keep up with his peak state power

The remaining Gordons clan member that have entered with them were still around the third level trying to finish the challenge they were facing faster but from the amount of injuries on there

Body it was clear that they won’t be challenging the fourth level in such a condition, meanwhile Alec have just stepped into the eight level

------

Alec who had just stepped into the eighth level of the fighting pavilion Tower, was suprised to find himself in an entirely new world, Towering trees obstructed most of his view, adding an eerie atmosphere to the already treacherous environment.

The gravity in this level was ten times stronger than what he was used to, making him feel vulnerable and on edge.

Determined to push forward, Alec quickly summoned , Legion, who had been started getting use with the fact that it was now a robotic golem armed with a laser spear.

With Legion guarding his back and Titan, shielding him from the front, Alec began to feel a surge of reassurance despite his pale and sickly appearance caused by the overwhelming gravitational pressure.

Just as Alec was beginning to calm down, Legion’s shoulder-mounted missiles locked onto a few suspicious spots within the dense foliage

” who is there? , come out now! ”

The moment Alec saw Legions missiles aiming he was sure that there was someone preparing to lay an ambush on him, Legion had a type of scanner that was able to lock on to the location of enemies nearby

So unless the enemy was a Mid Rank Lifeform it could forget about escaping Legions scanner, after realising that the ambushers had no intentions of coming out Alec ordered for Legion to fire

The missiles shot out towards their intended targets, but before they reached their destination, five black blurs leaped down from the trees, revealing themselves to be a group of Black Elves.

Alec involuntarily took in a sharp breath, These black elves were known to be swift and deadly adversaries, their agility and dark magic unmatched, There was no room for underestimation Agnes had been making sure that he read alot about other races since they were leaving the clan .

As the Black Elves landed gracefully amidst the forest floor, Alec’s focus sharpened,

” and I thought I could get out of all the stages without fighting, how naive I was, too bad I can’t summon the Hive Queen around here, if not she won’t have any problems restricting you all”

Though Alec was talking with them but he had already casted a spell in an instant, earth runes light up around his hand and With a determined flick of his wrist

He unleashed his Earth spell towards one of the Black Elves, creating jagged Earth spikes that shot towards the enemy.

Simultaneously, Titan moved and swung his large mace conjured freezing gusts of wind, attempting to immobilize another Elf.

The Black Elves, however, were agile and adept at evading as they escaped the range of the attacks, They gracefully dodged the Earth spikes, effortlessly leaping and flipping to avoid the gusts of wind that was raging from Titan’s great physical strength

Legion, recognizing the need to intervene, lunged forward with it’s laser spear raised high.

A series of powerful strikes followed, aiming to catch the Black Elves off guard, the Elves countered with lightning-fast moves, managing to narrowly avoids the lethal blows.

Alec’s heart pounded with adrenaline as he assessed the evolving battle, He refused to be overwhelmed by the enemy’s speed and elusiveness,

” Titan!”

Alec called and Titan just seems to understand what Alec wanted and he Focused his energy.

he channeled his ice magic to the ground and created icy barriers instantly , placing them strategically to impede the movements of the black elves.

The black elves, momentarily hindered, found themselves struggling to navigate through the icy obstacles, This was the window of opportunity Alec had been waiting for.

But While Alec was planning against them, the dark elves also had there eyes on Alec.

One dark Elf, in particular, proved to be a relentless adversary she ignored Titan and Legion directly and went out for Alec , Wielding a pair of shortswords with unparalleled finesse, she moved with lightning speed, her strikes narrowly missing Alec’s vital points as he pushed his Agility to the peak and dodge her strikes with close encounters.

She stealthily passed through his shadow, Alec felt a chilling presence that sent shivers down his spine, However, before she could deliver a deadly blow, Titan, who is always vigilant, and have closed the gap intervened.

With an earth-shattering explosion, Titan self-destructed his ice mace, creating a powerful shockwave that not only stopped the Dark Elf in her tracks but also allowed Alec to see her face properly.

Her purple, dark skin and razor-sharp hair stood out in stark contrast along with her pointed ears, Alec recognized the Dark Elf as a formidable opponent, her strategic use of shadow magic adding a new layer of danger to their fight.

However, as Legion poised to strike her down with his laser spear, the dark elf cast a shadow spell, disappearing into the darkness once again.

Bangg!!!! There was a little blast as Legion missed his target.

The brief glimpse Alec had of her face fueled his determination to stop her and put an end to her threat, as he had never come so close to death while facing someone of the same realm.

Realizing that they needed to adapt their tactics, Alec quickly devised a plan, He called upon Legion and Titan, their combined strength now more crucial than ever.

The three of them formed a cohesive unit, strategizing and coordinating their attacks to counter the dark elves’ swift and deadly strikes.

Legion’s laser beams pierced through the shadows, aiming to disrupt the dark elves’ ability to conceal themselves with the trees shadows, Alec utilized his earth magic, creating barriers and Titan spread icy constructs to hinder their movements.

[]

And despite Titan sacrificing his mace, he still unleashed earth-shaking stomps, stunning the Dark Elves and leaving them vulnerable to his icy assaults.

Legion’s laser spears tore through the shadows, Alec began to anticipate the dark elf’s movements, He focused his energy into enhancing his senses, allowing him to detect even the slightest disturbances in the air as the dark elf slipped from one shadow to another, this was the first time he had ever had to stress himself in a battle like this and it seems being alone was allowing him to grow even in battle

With a swift and precise motion, Alec conjured a burst of fire magic, creating a blinding flare that temporarily banished the shadows surrounding them.

In that crucial moment, he caught a glimpse of the dark elf preparing to strike from behind.

Reacting quickly, Alec spun around and sent a powerful punch that carried a gust of wind in her direction, knocking her off balance.

Seizing the opportunity, Legion unleashed a barrage of laser spears aimed directly at the dark elf, The combined force of Alec’s windy punch and Legion’s relentless assault forced her out of the shadows, leaving her exposed.

[]

With precise timing, Titan delivered a devastating blow, slamming his giant fists into the ground beneath her, the impact sent shockwaves rippling through the area, incapacitating the Dark Elf and rendering her unable to continue the fight, and she dissappear leaving them with only four elves left.

The remaining dark elves were stunned and Taking advantage of the distracted black elves, Alec nodded toward Titan who summoned his ice magic again , conjuring a swirling blizzard that encompassed the area.

The frigid winds descended upon the startled enemies, their vision obscured by swirling white.

As the blizzard cleared, Alec saw that his plan had worked, The Black Elves were disoriented, momentarily blinded by the blizzard.

Seizing the opportunity, Alec swiftly maneuvered through the forest, his agile movements enhanced by his unwavering focus, as both of his golem followed behind him

Moving with grace and precision, Alec launched a series of attacks, He unleashed Earth tendrils from his hands, ensnaring several black elves and rendering them immobilized

Others were knocked off balance by bursts of freezing winds, leaving them vulnerable.

Legion, seeing an advantageous opening, unleashed a barrage of laser strikes, precisely aiming for the exposed black elves, the laser beams sliced through the air, leaving trails of burning energy in their wake.

One by one, the black elves were incapacitated, unable to withstand the combined onslaught of Alec and Legion.

But the battle was far from over, the remaining Black Elves, their determination unyielding, continued to resist , They launched their own aggressive attacks, nimble and precise despite the increased gravity that burdened Alec and Alec realised that

The Black Elves seems to have much more physical advantages than the average human, and he was also flabbergasted at the realness of the Tower’s Test, it was like everything was real and that was why he was not ready to lose at all

With determination etched on his face, Alec called upon Titan once again, The towering ice Golem unleashed a massive wave of freezing energy, encasing the remaining black elves in solid ice.

Their movements halted, they stared at Alec with wide eyes, defeated and they slowly disappeared from the the solid ice that imprisoned them

The forest fell silent, Alec allowed himself a brief moment to catch his breath, The eighth level of the fighting pavilion Tower had proven to be the greatest challenge he had faced yet.

But through his resilience and the unwavering support of his two golems Legion and Titan, he had emerged victorious, even if they were against five Black Elves that also seems to be in the Tier 2 realm

In that moment, Alec allowed himself to be free as he shouted to the skies in excitement, ever since the last Blood Moon War he had been thinking he was not good enough but this battle have allowed him to let out some pent up emotions.
