The Golem Mage Jungle Battle Part 2.
"What's your plan?" The System Spirit, who was now fully released in the absence of anyone else, asked Alec with a somber expression."Truth be told, I'm just as clueless." " I can only hope for a miracle, as always, If not, I'll have to buy us some time by deploying my golems and hope that With their help, it'll be much harder for the pursuers to track us down, since we'll always find them first thanks to Legions scanner" Alec replied."That sounds like a foolish plan," the system spirit retorted."Do you have a better plan?, If you do, please let me know right away, I am opened to new ideas and opinion " Alec challenged the spirit, who averted its gaze in embarrassment."Well, since we don't have any other plan, I guess we'll stick to this one, After all, a bad plan is still better than no plan," the system spirit grumbled reluctantly, agreeing to Alec's proposal."Master, that might not be necessary, as the pursuers seem to have split into smaller groups to cover more ground," L

The mage struck Towards Alec with his Great Axe, the weapon fluctuating with some type of ethereal energy. But before his axe could reach its target, another axe collided with it. And Sparks of lightning erupted as the two Great Axes clashed.Despite this, the Barrier Mage put more force into his attack, pushing the Butcher out of his way.The Butcher collided with a nearby tree, groaning in pain as he got back on his feet, a smirk on his face. He reached into his dark cloud chest and pulled out a small axe that looked to have Basic Runes engraved on them, and threw it towards the Barrier Mage.The Small Axe spun towards the mage, accompanied by a small whirlwind as its speed increased.The Barrier Mage was forced to divert his attention away from Alec once again. He was Frustrated, and snorted In response while he moved backward."No need to act, Master, You don't need to intervene, If it was just two mages, we would have had some problems taking care of them, But since it's jus

A few seconds after Alec and his golem squad left, the other five mages that Legion mentioned finally located the barrier mage.Astrid cautiously approached the barrier mage and placed a hand on his neck, feeling the pulse still beating. Making him He let out a relieved sigh.If he had lost a member of his party on this mission without any clear benefits, Igor’s Chief Disciple, which was also Astrid's senior disciple , would not hesitate to give him a harsh beating."How did something like this happen?" Astrid asked, turning towards the Divination mage who stood at the edge."I picked up a faint divination signal of someone being close, a mage signal, but it was fluctuating at a very low level, like he was in the Tier 2 realm." " So, I figured he must be one of the ones we were prepared to capture," the Divination mage explained."I quickly informed my partner and asked him to call for backup, but he refused, saying it was just one mage and that we could handle it." " However, as
The Golem Mage 284 ( No Title)
Alec never had the opportunity to attack after the last Mage Titan took care of. Though Kethra had wanted the mages to split up again and cover more ground, but Astrid strongly disagreed.Astrid was adamant about not letting any more of his mages get taken out. The previous attacks taught him that not only was the group familiar with the terrain, but they were also skilled at escaping quickly and avoiding capture, keeping their element of surprise intact.Astrid had a bad feeling that if he spread out his mages again, it would only result in more casualties. The Barrier Mage was already injured, and it was evident that it would require a significant amount of healing resources to bring him back to full health. Fortunately, Kethra had provided them with some resources, so it shouldn't be too much of an issue for the barrier Mage to recover fully.However, many mages preferred to heal naturally rather than using resources to expedite the process. They also wanted to take the opport

This time, Astrid was determined to uncover the reasons why they always seemed to be one step behind the culprit who kept targeting their group by knocking out the mages. Aware that they might have to make another move to confront this group of Mages , Astrid insisted that they refrain from splitting up. Instead, he believed it was crucial to fully utilize the divination Mage's abilities, so they don't fall for any scheme of the mages again.The Divination Mage had been the only one who consistently managed to locate or track down their elusive attacker in the darkness. And Astrid seems to have recognized the significance of his abilities which he never bothered with before. Kethra, in particular, was eager to capture Alec and uncover all the secrets he held. However, he couldn't help but grumble in frustration as he believed Astrid was wasting valuable time that could be spent in locating the sdete of Mages that was led by Alec.But Astrid's refusal to listen to Kethra's ideas o

Seeing Astrid emerge from the Space Gate portal provided Kethra with the much-needed support and confidence to confront Alec and his group of golems. It reassured him that he had a backup plan if things didn't go as planned, similar to the first time when things went sideways, and he was able to escape.However, Kethra wasn't about to let Astrid see how grateful he was for his unexpected arrival. After all, Astrid had never mentioned anything about providing this assistance in the first place. It made Kethra suspect that Astrid had planned to catch him off guard from the beginning. This realization made Kethra grateful that he hadn't obtained the attributed stone yet, or it could have been used against him.Since Astrid possessed such a powerful artifact, it would make it Much easier for him to track him if he were to escape during a fight. Even if Astrid mentioned that he could only teleport one person at a time and it required a significant amount of mana, Kethra couldn't fully
The Golem Mage Outer Region Overlords Part 1
The Blood Changdao and Kethra's Dual dagger clashed once again as Alec and Kethra stood face to face for the second time.However, this time Alec had grown significantly stronger since their last encounter. Not only had he gained control over his sword intent after watching Sword Saint, but he had also learned how to effectively harness his Blood killing intent beyond simply using it to manipulate his sword Intents to abide to his will.Kethra swung his leg towards Alec's head after they got locked in a standoff, But Alec swiftly released his left grip on the Blood Changdao and drew his Bone katana to defend himself. Hoping that Kethra would reconsider his attack upon seeing Alec armed with a blade, But Alec underestimated the force behind Kethra's leg strike.The impact of Kethra's legs ruthlessly colliding with the katana caused Alec to stumble back, the metallic sound of their clash accompanied by a gust of wind. Alec adjusted his neck uncomfortably before regaining his composur

Just as confusion began to swirl among them, a massive Root burst forth from the ground, transforming itself into what could only be described as a face."How dare you all destroy my part of the forest, disturb my sleep, and kill my kin," the root spoke with an enraged tone.A sense of urgency washed over Alec as he heard the warning from the system spirit golem, who had been quiet for a while. "Alec, no matter what happens, you have to get out of here, I swear that thing is a dire threat, It's not even its main body, and yet it has the power to kill you countless times over."Alec, slightly skeptical, replied, "And what makes you think that? It's not like you can detect any Mana waves from it!"Attempting to check the root's Mana waves, Alec realized to his shock that he was being blocked by an intangible mental shield. He was unable to gather any information about the root at all. This was perplexing because he recalled being able to read a peak Tier 4 Mage's Mana waves before.

Auction 5.
Which was equivalent to at least another ten bodies if they were counting in Tier 5 terms; and now the pills’ value had reached the equivalent of twenty Tier 5 bodies which is the original realm Alec had placed the bid.As the two men stared toward each other’s booth, trying to anticipate each other’s next move and act as cautiously as possible, Alec stood with his hands behind his back, neither announcing nor acknowledging their bids.Everyone was so pumped about his heated bidding battle that the both Booth were probably the only ones being stared at, the crowd found the bidding battle far more interesting than expected, many realizing they even enjoyed watching such power plays.‘Yes! Fight! Bid and spend all your corpses here, in the end, I’ll still be the biggest winner, no matter how much you believe I’m taking a loss,’ Alec thought as he watched them close to breaking down, though he kept a nonchalant face, deep down he was almost jumping for joy seeing how much the pills were
Auction 4.
“For the second round, I’ve prepared a batch of various items to speed things up,” Alec began as he walked towards the stone pillar and pulled off the black cloth that had been covering the items. “I have here three different items for the second round, and as you can see, there are three bottles, each holding cultivation pills, the first bottle contains ten Tier 3 cultivation pills.” “The second bottle holds another ten Tier 4 cultivation pills, while the third bottle contains five Tier 5 cultivation pills, and these three bottles will not be sold separately but as a joint sale, and the starting bid is six Tier 5 bodies.” Alec finally concluded his introduction of the second item, which happened to be a bundled sale, after his statement about the contents of the three pill bottles, the entire auction house fell silent. The breaths of many inside hitched as they could hardly believe their eyes, all this while, when they wanted to cultivate, they had relied on power stones harveste
Auction 3.
The second female mage who had moved backstage earlier now rolled out another table, this time two tables interlocked together to prevent them from separating, one of the tables was empty, while the other was covered in a dark cloth, immediately making many in the crowd realize that was the second item of the day hidden beneath it.As the female mages reached the center, she and the first lady who had remained on stage with Alec began transferring the newly purchased armour, won by the black-clothed man onto the empty table. Once they were done, they placed the new item on the new empty stone pillar.Afterward, the first lady rolled the armour offstage while the crowd waited eagerly for the unveiling of the second item.“Well, in this situation, I’ll go straight to the point and not keep you all in suspense,” Alec said as he started walking toward the stone pillar. However, despite his words, there were many in the crowd who didn’t believe him.Because as he was observing some peop
Auction 2.
While those interested in the armour were prepared and waiting for Alec to declare the starting bid, the others, who had no intention of bidding couldn’t help letting their imaginations run wild. As they felt If the opening item was already of mid-tier caliber, what else could possibly be in store?, Many silently prayed that something matching their desires would appear next so they could make use of the corpses they had brought in their space rings.As murmurs of speculation filled the hall, Alec stood calmly, a knowing smile on his face as he observed their expressions. This was all part of his plan, starting strong with a high-tier item to set the tone, even if the next few items didn’t match the first in quality, the excitement would remain. As the crowd had already been made to believe that treasures awaited them, and that momentum alone would keep their spirits high, as the eagerly awaited what’s next.This was the power of first impressions, and Alec knew how to wield it
Auction 1.
Though Alec already had his suspicions about who was responsible for the probing, but he chose to act as if he hadn’t noticed anything at all.“Seeing how eager you all are to discover what we’ve prepared for you today, I won’t waste any more of your time, especially as you all are respectable figures, so allow me to first explain the one and only rule of the Gordons Auction House.” Alec began, his voice calm but firm.“No matter who you are or what position you hold outside these walls, once you step into this hall, you’ve accepted to be under our care, and with that comes our expectation of a little respect back from you, it’s quite simple, really.”“Our one rule is this: there will be no fighting inside the auction hall, if anyone believes themselves to be above reason, they are free to try gathering mana in a bid to attack, but just know, whatever happens after that, we won’t be held responsible.” Alec’s tone was firm, a quiet authority threading each word as he addressed the crow
D Day 2.
Just as the crowd waited in eager anticipation for the auction to begin, a sudden flash of light burst across the stage, instantly drawing the attention of every guest, conversations fell silent as all eyes turned toward the source, and from the backstage, Alec emerged, flanked by two female mages at his side.He wore a regal-looking robe, deep brown with black trim, bearing the Gordons clan emblem boldly emblazoned on his back and a smaller crest over his left chest, though he’d clearly attempted to comb his hair back neatly, but a few stubborn strands still jutted out at the edges, adding an almost roguish charm to his appearance.Beside him stood two stunning female mages, dressed in elegant yet provocative outfits Alec had personally arranged for the event, their short skirts and stylish tops left little to the imagination, instantly catching the attention of several lustful onlookers. But these women weren’t just decoration, their job for the day was to assist Alec in presentin
D Day.
While the city lord waited impatiently for any word from the Gordons clan, a message finally reached him, just a day before the long-awaited auction, he sat in his study, his usual spot by the window that directly faced the Gordons estate. It had become something of a habit for him, to watch from there, hoping for a sign of unrest at the Gordons, but to his quiet frustration, the sealed gates of the Gordons had been opened, and the estate had come alive again, bustling as though nothing had happened a few days ago.As he stared out, a knock sounded at the door, and he turned to see his son, Alistair, stride in with an unreadable expression.“Father, there’s finally news from the Gordons clan,” Alistair announced, stopping beside his father’s chair.Those words alone made the previously lax city lord sit up, a sharp gleam of interest in his eyes. “Speak. What is it?”Alistair wasted no time. “The Gordons have dispatched envoy mages across the city, reaffirming that the auction w
Merit System.
It had been days since the three assassins were dispatched to the Gordons Clan to eliminate Alec, but with no word or sign of their success, the City Lord was beginning to regret his impulsive decision, the silence gnawed at him as a bitter reminder that he might have once again acted too hastily.He still fumed at how Alec had exchanged sharp words with him in front of so many people, tarnishing his credibility, and the only way he knew to deal with such a problem was to erase it. Alec was quickly becoming another Gordons weed, stubborn, persistent, and dangerously difficult to uproot.On the night of the planned assassination, he had seen the massive array deployed over the Gordons estate, he’d almost allowed himself to relax, convinced that the assassins must have succeeded in their mission. In his mind, there was no other reason for the Gordons to raise such a formation unless it was to contain either someone or something, and he believed it was to keep the assassins from escap
The Delivery.
Eventually, the night dragged on as the mages of the Gordons Clan who hadn’t joined the earlier battle busied themselves, moving wine and supplies in preparation for the celebration ahead.It was tradition in the Gordons Clan that whenever a mage advanced to a new realm, they were to celebrate the breakthrough with loved ones and officially register their new realm at the Clan Hall the following morning. This helped the Elders and the Patriarch track the steady rise in the clan’s strength, but tonight was anything but ordinary, over nine hundred mages had broken through whether it was to a new realm or a small breakthrough in the same realm all would be celebrated tonight as all logistic duties like recording the new realms was pushed to the next day. Some from the main bloodline, others from mixed bloodlines, and even a few enforcers the clan had taken in over the years. Yet, none of that mattered tonight, the entire clan was uniting in a single celebration, preparing to honour
