2022-10-23 06:58:58Two weeks had passed since Alec's grandfather discovered his mage abilities, He was now hailed as the prodigy of the Gordon family, surpassing the other dual element kids who had taken a whole week to reach Tier 1 mage status.
The younger generation of the family was showing promise, with numerous young mages emerging.While some of the new mages grew complacent, taking a break from their training, Alec remained diligent.Not a single day went by where he did not dedicate himself to his combat training during the day and honing his golem-making skills at night.To acknowledge his achievements, his grandfather bestowed upon him a space pouch as a gift, though Alec suspected it was just another indulgence from the old man.Alec's hard work and dedication during training paid off handsomely, His basic combat skills soared to level five, a remarkable accomplishment in such a short span of time.[Basic combat skills -lvl 5( 45/500)]He also improved his golem creation skill and was now able to create seven other golems apart from Titan.Even though there wasn't a level indicator to showcase his progress, he could feel a significant improvement in his ability to craft sturdy golems compared to when he first started as a mage.Furthermore, he discovered that the system had the capacity to communicate, but it seemed reluctant to reach out due to the energy it consumed.The system informed him that every question he asked would cost him 20 mana, regardless of whether or not it could provide an answer.This revelation left Alec feeling uncertain about trusting the system, but he ultimately decided to take advantage of the system's rapid power growth and asked a few questions that had been lingering in his mind.With a determined mind, he opened his status tab and began to inquire about his burning questions.[ Status Tab]Name: Alec GordonsRace: HumanLevel: 2Tier: 1 [low tier]■ Exp till next level : 0.00%/300[ Attributes ]Strength: 9+Agility: 8+Endurance: 8+Mana: (100/100)Affinity: Earth (high)+, Fire(high)+Available points : 3System points: 0He had leveled up to level 2 , thanks to all the training and dedicated meditation he had been practicing."What is your purpose?" Alec asked, curiosity filling his voice.[ X : To make the host the strongest mage alive, that's my main purpose. ]the system responded, its words resonating in Alec's mind.[ Status Tab]Name: Alec Gordons“Race: HumanLevel: 2Tier: 1 [low tier]■ Exp till next level : 0.00%/300[ Attributes ]Strength: 9+Agility: 8+Endurance: 8+Mana: (80/100)Affinity: Earth (high)+, Fire(high)+Available points : 3System points: 0Alec checked his mana, only to realize that it had reduced by 20."Hmm, it seems the system wasn't lying about the 20 mana per question," Alec thought to himself."Who created you?"Alec asked the question that had been bothering him, He believed that he might be a plaything of some God, someone who was just watching him like an experiment.[×: Question invalid!!!, All you need to know is that I have transferred with you to help you become the strongest mage.]"Hmm, another waste of 20 mana,"Alec said to himself when he realized that his mana had reduced to 60 from 80, as the system still failed to answer his question."Well, I guess that solves all I need to know about the system, I'll have to level up quickly and see if it finally answers my questions," Alec said to himself."It's an attack! All mages, report for duty at the gates!"a middle-aged man shouted as he rushed towards the family gates."Hmm, it seems my first battle is about to start," Alec said to himself.He quickly allocated his available points into agility to improve his running speed.[ Status Tab]Name: Alec Gordons“Race: Human“Level: 2“Tier: 1 [low tier]■ Exp till next level : 0.00%/300[ Attributes ]“Strength: 9+“Agility: 11+“Endurance: 8+“Mana: (60/100)Affinity: Earth (high)+, Fire(high)+Available points : 0System points: 0The moment he started running straight towards the gates, he noticed that he was much faster than normal, He caught up with the rest of the family members who were also making their way to the city gates."Alec!" He turned back to see Arthur and the rest of the younger generations lagging behind.He slowed down a little so they could catch up."What is it?" Alec asked immediately."Have you heard any information about the attack?"Arthur asked, but Alec shook his head to indicate that he had no idea about the attack."Even better, I have some information," Arthur said with a smirk."Just spill it, dumbass," Alec said impatiently."Okay! I got a little info from an older guard passing by, It was said that a level 5 zombie horde is heading straight for our city," Arthur explained."But how is that possible? I thought zombie hordes only occurred during a Blood Moon, and it's definitely not nighttime, let alone a blood moon," Alec questioned."Now, that's where you're mistaken, man, Not all zombies are able to return to their dimensions after an attack, So those who are left gather around the highest-level zombie, waiting for the next blood moon to join the next attacking force," Arthur clarified."However, occurrences like this are very rare since most high-level zombies escape quickly when they realize the portal is closing, But this time, a level 5 zombie wasn't able to escape when the city lord cut off its right arm, leaving it lagging behind, Now that it has recovered its strength, it's seeking revenge," Arthur explained all the details to Alec."Hmm, so we're up against a Tier 5 zombie Commander ?" Alec asked."No, it's not a zombie commander. It's a Tier 5 zombie brain monster, a mental type," Arthur clarified with a laugh."Hahaha, what did you think? That a zombie commander can lead a horde that would make the city lord call on the family clan mages? Don't make me laugh." Arthur said.

"Move to the south gate quickly," the Patriarch instructed as the clan members closed in on the central gate.The Gordons Clan members made a slight turn and hurried over, even Alec was surprised to see his grandfather waiting there for them.Up until now, Alec hadn't realized that he wasn't the one leading the charge when they left the family compound. But now, as he calmed down and thought about it, he realized that the old man must have been in a meeting with the City Lord and other powerful family leaders in the city, And It seems they must have agreed upon having the Gordon family protecting the weaker South gate.The Gordon family members arrived at the gate swiftly, climbing up and spreading around the walls to cover any gaps, ensuring that the zombies wouldn't exploit any openings.They allowed the younger generation of the Gordon family to stay behind, watching their backs as they fought off the zombies.The patriarch levitated in the air, observing, as some of the higher-r

After witnessing the impressive display of strength by Titan, he saw him move swiftly to retrieve his trusted weapon - a spiky mace that seemingly materialized from the very earth itself.It appeared to be far sturdier than any steel weapons employed by the Gordins family, indicating that Alec had taken great care in imbuing it with an abundance of mana during its creation.This, coupled with the equally formidable shield he had fashioned, made them the ultimate tools for warfare.It was no wonder the mace effortlessly decimated the zombie's head, Pleased with his handiwork, Alec nodded approvingly, his gaze fixed once again on the magnificent weapon.[ wrath spike mace ]Weapon lvl : 5( upgrade golem rank to upgrade)+9 strength+5 speed+1 enduranceA sudden realization dawned on him - he possessed the ability to enhance Titan's mace with his own mana.It was an extraordinary feat, one that seemed exclusive to him, as he had never witnessed anyone else perform such a task.If others

He immediately face-palmed himself for asking such an obvious question, After all, Titan was a golem who could wield anything Alec asked him to.To his surprise, Titan nodded in resp

[Basic spearmanship leveled up][Basic spearmanship lvl 3][Mace mastery learnt lvl 1]After seeing the series of messages on his screen, Alec felt a surge of happiness, and he saw Titan blasting the head of the Tier 1 zombie away. Finally, he understood how they could awaken their mastery of weapons, All it took was continuous usage of the weapon in battle, eventually leading to the awakening of the weapon mastery.In the case of Spearmanship, Alec attributed their quick progress to the fact that many golems were already using it. This gave them an advantage over Titan, who had previously used a different weapon, However, this didn't matter much since Titan had already learned the skill. As long as he continued using his mace, he would keep improving himself.Alec decided to test his theory, With a mana pool of around 40 points, he created two new spears and focused on improving their strength and agility. As he prepared to upgrade the level of the spears, Arthur approached him, a

Alec became so engrossed in the fight that he found himself edging closer to the front line, disregarding the protective barrier his golems had established. His countenance transformed into that of a battle-crazed warrior, although every strike he made was calculated and precise. As his spear skills grew more fluid with each use, Alec realized that relying on the system to upload the skills into his mind wasn't enough to become truly skilled—it required practice and experience."Ah, kill!" Alec shouted, charging towards the zombies with his spear instead of waiting for them to come within piercing range. Swinging, slashing, and even using the bottom of the spear to push back the encroaching undead, creating enough space to strike them down. Even Titan joined the massacre, as Agnes rallied the younger members of the clan to participate in the fight."We can't let Alec claim all the glory!, Let's all kill a few zombies!" Agnes said, aiming to bolster the morale of the younger gener

The system seemed determined to throw him into the jaws of death once again, It was like asking a (low) Tier 1 mage to take down a (mid) Tier 1 mage , a task deemed almost impossible.And to make matters worse, the system was demanding that he eliminate a hundred Tier 2 lifeform while still being in Tier 1 mage realm .

Bryan scrutinized Alec, trying to figure out why he was so confident. However, no matter how hard he tried to calculate Alec's actions, it became clear that Alec had a clear head and couldn't be manipulated."I don't know what you're placing your faith in, but I can assure you that if you don't have another golem as big as that guy here, you'll lose terribly," Bryan Lanzt said, pointing at Titan.Alec was taken aback, He was certain that there was nothing that could match Titan's strength. "Oh, and why is that?" Alec asked, genuinely surprised."There is a (Peak) Tier 1 speed demon zombie," Bryan replied.Alec furrowed his brows as he learned that there was a Peak Tier 1 zombie silently lurking among the horde he was defending against. The fact that it hadn't attacked yet meant it was intelligent enough to hide from there views waiting to ambush his siblings. After all, it specialized in speed."Closing in on my siblings won't be difficult for the zombie," Alec stated coldly. "Th

Seeing Alec join the High-Rank battle, the Fourth and Third Elders of the Gordons clan could no longer afford to be lax, they grew more serious, their instincts urging them to move closer to him, so if something were to happen or if the Mental-type zombie devised a plan to target Alec, they would be within reach to support him.However, the zombies they faced were no fools, they too have received orders from the Mental Type Zombie and they wouldn’t allow the Gordons clan elders to break away so easily. The Peak Tier 7, Agility-type zombie was no longer the one on the desperate side; now, it was the Fourth Elder struggling to break free from the fighting, as the tide of battle kept shifting, the desperation passes back and forth between them.On the Third Elder’s side, the two Agility-type zombies avoided direct confrontation, fully aware they were no match for his power. They had observed his previous kills and were sticking to the Mental-type zombie’s orders, which was to wear hi
Correction.
NOTE: I made an error in the headcount of deaths, there have been eleven Tier 7 casualties on the Zombie side, I forgot to include the one Alec killed, as a result, one of the infected humans is facing only a single zombie instead. Apologies for the miscalculation.—The Mental-Type Zombie stood at a distance, now guarded only by the Peak Tier 7 Hunter-Type Zombie, it was still reeling from the shock of Alec slaying a Tier 7 mutated zombie.But now that it considered Alec’s rapid growth, it no longer felt secure with just the Hunter-Type Zombie protecting it. Common sense dictated that Alec shouldn’t be able to kill a Peak Tier 7 Hunter-Type Zombie, one of the strongest combatants on the battlefield. Yet something kept tugging at the back of its mind, making it uneasy. Mental-Type Zombies were prone to paranoia when things didn’t go their way, and with Alec being the reason its tactical strategy was falling apart, its judgment was growing more erratic.It didn’t even send another

The two remaining zombies trembled as they stared at the mage before them, their instincts screamed at them to lunge forward, to sink their teeth into him, to obey the primal urge that drove all lower-level zombies toward the living.But unlike mindless undead, these two had evolved beyond mere hunger, at higher realms, certain zombies awakened consciousness and intelligence and with it, the fear of true death. Unlike their lower-tier counterparts, who threw themselves at prey without hesitation, these two understood that if they fell here, there would be no coming back, this was the difference between them and the normal undead skeletons that embrace with faith. Yet, hesitation would not save them, as Brandon had no intention of waiting.[> Mid-Tier Spell – Sand Prison <]Brandon’s fingers moved rapidly through a series of intricate hand signs, and the sand that had burst apart earlier from the sand cone spell now responded to his command, rising from the ground and wrapping aroun

Alec might have dashed into the air first, but he wasn’t alone, a split second later, Titan and Legion followed, quickly catching up to him.The streaks of flames, ice, and jet propulsion cutting through the sky toward the high-rank battlefield left many watching in shock, no one could quite grasp Alec’s intentions.Below, Alec’s Tier 5 golems, along with those from Titan and Legion squads, surged forward to reinforce the Gordons’ mid-rank mages, increasing their Tier 5 numbers by a staggering twenty-six, the realization that Alec alone could provide the equivalent of twenty-six top-tier 5 realm combatants was a wake-up call for the other forces observing him for the first time. They were witnessing first-hand the rise of a mage who would soon earn the title One-Man Army.“Master sent me to deliver a message, he says you don’t have to hold back anymore, the battle is nearing its end, now is the time to unleash chaos.” Oni whispered stealthily beside Brandon.

Alec already knew what he wanted, he had been saving up every available point he could get, never once bothering to use them, as he was waiting for the right moment, the moment he could push one of his three main stats past the 300 mark. Now, with enough points at his disposal, he had made his choice, and that was agility.“I already know what we’ll do! You all will reinforce the Tier 5 army of the Gordons clan, along the way, the rest of Legion and Titan Squad will join up with you,” Alec commanded, turning to Butcher, who had questioned him earlier.“What about you, Master? What will you do?” Hunter asked.“Me? I’ll be hunting down Tier 7 mutated zombies with Titan and Legion by my side, if I can take out the top generals and make that Type 3 mental zombie even more terrified, why waste time going after Tier 6 soldiers?” Alec replied as he instructed the system to allocate 53 points into his agility stat.[ Status Tab ]Name: Alec GordonsRace: Mid-Rank HumanLevel: 96Tier: 5 [Pea
Before The Chills 2.
“Ahhhhh!”The Type 3 Mental Zombie’s enraged scream was loud enough to jolt the still-dazed mages watching back to reality, they had all just witnessed Alec Gordon slay a Tier 7 mutated zombie, a feat that seemed almost unbelievable even though they had just witnessed it.Alec was still in the Tier 5 Mage Realm, yet he had just defeated a high-rank lifeform, even with the help of his golems, many onlookers struggled to comprehend what had just happened.“That guy… he—he actually slayed a Tier 7 mutated zombie, that’s a massive loss to the zombie army’s high-rank battle force…” Bryan Lanzt muttered, catching his breath now that he had successfully been able to position the Lanzt clan Tier 4 mages behind the Mid-Rank Gordon Mages, which means he could finally take a moment to process Alec’s battle.A few feet away, Alec pushed himself to his feet, wiping away the blood that still trickled from the corner of his mouth. But he didn’t care, as he could feel a refreshing sensation surging
Before The Chills.
Ever since the battle began, Alec had been analyzing everything, testing his strength against the Tier 7 mutated zombie and understanding the gaps and advantages between them, but now, he felt he had learned enough.And It was time to go all out.He dashed forward, closing in on the Agility-type zombie, a move that caught the Mutated zombie completely off guard, as never in its wildest nightmares would it had imagined Alec would challenge it in a battle of speed.But it was happening, and reacting on instinct, the zombie tried to dash and meet Alec, but the moment it did, its right leg tightened Mid-motion, making it realise that the Hive Queen had made her move again.Snarling, the zombie turned its gaze toward her, only for the Hive Queen to screech defiantly back.It took every ounce of willpower for the mutated zombie not to abandon its orders and attack her instead, but this time, it had learned its lesson. Even though it couldn’t see the web strings due to the Hive Queen’s man
Beatdown 3.
The zombie snickered, realizing that its attack had not only failed to kill Hive Queen it had also put it in a precarious position. As if she attempted to restrict its speed again with such an array formation , it might struggle to break free a second time.The Phase spell wasn’t something that could be used consecutively without a brief cool down, due to the immense strain it put on the caster’s body, those who hadn’t fully mastered it risked severe backlash if they used it consecutively, and that was exactly what troubled the agility-type zombie.Luckily for it, neither Alec nor his golems seemed aware of this critical weakness in its earlier spell, but even so, they weren’t about to let the zombie kill Hive Queen under any circumstances.“You pesky creation of mana...” the Type 3 zombie growled, glaring at Hunter, whose hooked left hand was still clamped tightly onto its bladed arm.The next second, a powerful force yanked it downward, as Hunter had summoned his own golem minion
Beatdown 2.
[> High Tier Skill – Phase <]The voice of the Tier 7 mutated zombie rang out, just as it was on the verge of receiving a devastating attack from three different angles, its dark green eyes gleamed with an eerie brilliance, and in the next instant, its entire body twitched violently.Alec watched in shock as the mutated zombie’s form blurred, its body vibrating at such an unnatural speed that it seemed to slip through the hundreds of web-like strings restraining it, and in a split second, it was free.Three deafening bangs echoed through the battlefield. A leg, a bladed arm, and a claw lashed out in three different directions, the next thing Alec knew, both he, Oni, and Tempest Butcher were sent hurtling backward from the location they came from, slamming into the ground hard.Alec’s injury was the worst, the zombie’s bladed hand had carved a deep gash across his chest, leaving behind traces of toxic green flames that immediately sought to burrow into his wound.But before they co
