[Ding!]

[2 EXP gained from defeating the level 0 zombie]

[Learned Basic Spear Techniques]

Alec's panel displayed a series of notifications as the golems grew more adept at killing zombies with their stone spears.

It was clear that the introduction of the basic spearmanship skill had greatly improved their abilities.

[Basic Spearmanship Level 1]

✦ Enhances your ability to wield the spear with speed and strength, increasing the likelihood of delivering a fatal strike, It also accelerates your understanding of spear techniques, depending on the skill level.

"Ohhh, so that's what's been helping them, I can't help but think they've become as skilled as ancient Chinese spearman soldiers" Alec remarked, a sense of awe in his voice.

Curiously, Alec turned to Titan and asked,

"Can you use a spear like them too?"

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 response.

"Woah," Alec muttered as his attention was drawn to another extraordinary sight of intellectual shown by Titan.

The level 0 golems continued to slaughter the zombies atop the wall, appearing as agents of death.

The zombies barely had a chance to approach before they were impaled by the golems spears, The golems aimed for the head or chest, ensuring deep penetration and finishing the attack in a single swift motion.

Any zombies foolish enough to attempt biting or clawing at the golems quickly regretted their decision.

The golems lacked flesh or blood, preventing any possibility of reanimation.

[Skill level up!]

[Basic Spearmanship Level 2]

As the skill leveled up, Alec noticed a change in the golems attack method, Previously, they had only been stabbing, but now they were capable of performing sweeping attacks with the spearhead.

It was for those zombies they had missed the first time, and attempting to close the gap between them, then the golem would swiftly perform a swipe, uprooting the entire head of the zombie.

This ensured that those stubborn undead creatures wouldn't rise again to pester them, Witnessing the golems employ the spear in such a manner sent shockwaves through the Gordon Clan watching.

To see one person's summon performing the work of seven individuals so flawlessly left everyone wondering what Alec must have done for his golem to possess such expertise in spear usage.

Many believed that this knowledge had been imparted, similar to how renowned Golem Masters passed down their weapon techniques to their specialized golems, granting them increased battle power.

No one had anticipated Alec reaching this level of golem creation, especially considering he had only recently become a mage. "Genius!" some exclaimed, admiring Alec's abilities.

Agnes snorted at the shocked expression of the other young Gordon clan member beside her.

"What do you all expect?, He's the leader of the younger generation of the Gordons, He undoubtedly possesses the power and talent to back it up, or else he wouldn't have been chosen."

The fact that Alec could participate in such a high-level battle, while they, the other new mages, were merely there to spectate, amazed and invigorated the younger generations, Alec's remarkable performance ignited their passion.

Alec could feel the gaze of the younger generation fixated on him, filled with fanatical worship.

He sighed, knowing that in this world, strength was the ruling factor, He knew from now on that his presence in the clan would bring immense joy to these aspiring mages, who admired, were curious about him, It was evident that they adored him.

As Alec noticed his grandfather nodding toward him, appearing relaxed but unable to hide the shock on his face, Alec felt an urge to craft another spear and observe if Titan could truly wield it as skillfully as the level 0 golems.

But Alec had exhausted his mana while creating those mana spears for the golems, He had been trying to recover his mana, which was why he had kept Titan close, knowing it was his strongest golem.

Suddenly, a scream echoed through the air as the line was breached from another angle, Alec turned to see another Tier 1 zombie, but this one seemed different from the speed demons.

It had Red skin and it's well-defined muscles made it resemble a bodybuilder.

Alec activated his inspect ability to gather information on the new zombie.

[Inspect]

[Claw type - Strength zombie]

Level: (Low) Tier 1

Battle power: 57

As Alec assessed the battle power of the formidable claw type zombie, he realized that it could potentially cause significant losses to the clan members before they could handle it.

Losing a family member was something he wasn't prepared to witness at the moment.

"Stop him, Titan," Alec instructed his most trusted golem.

Titan turned towards the new target, emitting a slight mechanical sound as its red eyes gleamed brighter.

With slow speed, Titan charged forward, appearing almost indistinguishable from a real being.

With concern in his voice, Alec turned to Arthur.

"I hope you can deliver on your words as my new guard, Arthur."

"Of course, I am strong enough to protect you,"

Arthur replied, thumping his chest with confidence, as He activated his Tier 1 Mana Pool and casted a "Rock Armour" spell upon himself.

"Woah, yours looks even shinier, What did you do to the spell model to modify your Rock Armour like this?" Alec asked, intrigued by the enhanced appearance.

"Well, that's simply because I have the metal element as well, It makes it easier for me to integrate some of my metal elements into the Tier 1 spell Rock Armour," Arthur explained.

"It makes the spell stronger and more aligned with my personality somewhat of a mutated type of spell , However, I can only combine my two elements for this specific spell, and it's still not a complete integration of both elements."

With his attention fixed on Titan, Arthur didn't bother to divert his gaze towards Alec, He was wholly focused on observing how Titan would handle this new challenge.

They finally came face to face, the powerful swing of Titan's mace met with the ferocious swipe of the new Tier 1 zombie's claws, creating a clash of sound.

Despite being pushed back, Titan stood his ground, his trusty shield protecting him from any frontal attacks.

The zombie appeared confused for a moment before succumbing to its feral instincts, recklessly swiping its claws in a fit of rage.

"Clang!"

Each of the zombie's claw attacks were skillfully intercepted by Titan's shield, as if he could predict it's every move.

[A new skill has been learned: Block Mastery]

[Block Mastery Level 1]

Alec noticed the message but chose to ignore it for now, his focus solely on watching Titan's impressive fight, He couldn't help but wonder if his own golems had awakened similar skills.

Perhaps it had something to do with how often they had used their respective weapons in battle, The thought was giving him a headache, as he had never encountered anything like Titan's mastery of the mace before.

Lost in his thoughts, Alec watched as Titan finally brought down the Tier 1 zombie, smashing its head and causing blood to splatter all over its smooth brown body.

It gave off an aura of a war god, looking incredibly threatening.

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 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.

  • Moving Out.

    The clash of swords and bursts of magic echoed across the battlefield as the human mages engaged in fierce combat with the advancing zombie horde, meanwhile, the high rank mages and Type 3 zombies remained in their respective positions, silently observing the battlefield below them, neither side making a move yet as if keeping each other in check.But the high rank mages weren’t the only humans watching the battle, as from atop the hill, the Gordons mages stood still, their eyes fixed on the chaotic battle unfolding barely a hundred meters ahead of them. Further in the distance, the Mid rank skirmishes raged on, their lack of movement amidst the bloodshed didn’t go unnoticed, as the high rank mages from the newer clans, unfamiliar with the Gordons’ true strength, viewed their inaction with disdain.Even the city commanders wore scornful expressions, displeased by the Gordons’ refusal to join the fight. However, they held their tongues for now, convinced that it was only a matter o

His gaze remained locked on the ever-widening gate.“Hold your groups! Take position! Prepare to vanquish the undead from our lands!” The commanding voices of various clan Tier leaders and city hall officers leading their Tiers echoed across the battlefield as they issued final instructions.While the other mages scrambled to organize themselves, the Gordons clan mages stood unwavering. They were already in position, watching with quiet amusement as the others hurried to form battle lines, it was almost ironic, as many of these mages had arrived before the Gordons, yet they still seemed unaccustomed to suc

    He knew for a fact that the Gordons no longer held the City Hall in high regard after what happened to their clan, and until the City Lord deemed it the right time to go against them, Marcus had no intention of crossing swords with such battle-hardened mage warriors. Especially not with the Blood Moon War approaching, strong allies were needed, not enemies.Besides, if he were to get injured in a confrontation with the Gordons before the war even started, he would have only himself to blame. He would be an easy target for the zombies that would soon flood the battlefield, so avoiding unnecessary conflict while maintaining his authority was his best course of action.“I’m just saying, make sure your younger ranks realize this is a war zone, not a picnic ground,” Marcus said before levitating back to his position. He felt much safer there, surrounded by Sir Alistair and the other clan mages loyal to the City Hall, just in case the Third Elder decided to escalate things further.See

While the Tier 7 Mages of the Gordons Clan seem as if they were already drawing attention to themselves, seemingly on the verge of being bombarded with questions due to their clan’s grand display.Alec on the other hand Ignored the growing curiosity of those stationed in front of him, and finally took action, leading the Gordon Mages forward, instead of stopping at the assigned post designated by City Hall for each realm, they moved past it entirely.

    Though the Patriarch and the Grand Elder wanted to ask why Alec needed the corpses, But they quickly realized he had no intention of telling them, as he simply brushed off their curiosity, claiming it was a secret.When they asked how he planned to store so many zombie corpses, Alec casually showed them a high-quality space ring, the very same one that Old Man Alderic had given him when he handed over the demonic beasts for Alec to refine into pills for the academy.The sight of such a rare and powerful space ring only left them more shocked and they realised it was more than enough.At this point, when the Patriarch looked at Alec, he no longer saw him as just a member of the younger generation. No, he saw a walking treasure trove, a golden goose shining with wealth.Just as the Patriarch was about to shamelessly pitch an investment opportunity, probably for himself the Grand Elder dragged him away before he could embarrass himself further in front of his Grandson.-Alec didn’t

    “So, what’s this surprise you have for me, old man?” Alec asked, casually gesturing with two fingers.At his signal, the mages standing before him spread out, forming a neat line, a line that led directly to where the Patriarch stood, as he was still stunned by their transformation.“We greet the Patriarch!” they all called out in unison, bowing with cupped hands toward George Gordons, who finally started walking toward Alec.Alec stood next to a large stone pillar that was all the way up to his waist line, atop which a miniature battlefield had been sculpted from earth, depicting small terrains and figures to help visualize battle formations.But as soon as his grandfather reached him, Alec swiped his hand over the stone pillar, instantly flattening it into the ground, erasing the intricate display in an instant.“Why do you look so confused? You said you had a surprise for me, so what is it?” Alec asked, his sharp gaze fixed on his grandfather, while his hands were clasped behind

    The days flew by until it was finally the day of the Blood Moon War.For the residents of Estonia City who had nothing to do with the battle, fear gripped their hearts, and they had already locked themselves inside their homes, praying that the mages fighting on the behalf of the city would return with a flawless victory.Wives wept as their husbands strapped on their weapons, preparing to join their squads. Children knelt in silent prayer, wishing for their fathers’ safe return, the entire city was drenched in sorrow, an air of inevitable loss hanging over them.Even before the battle had begun, the morale of the mages was devastatingly low, many of them were reluctant, unwilling, and yet, they still marched forward.Because they had no choice.Despite their fears, they held onto a single hope, that even if they had to lay down their lives, they would do so protecting their loved ones, as long as no zombies broke through the city gates, as long as their families survived, then th

    "Emmm... are you sure it's a good idea to let someone like Terran leave the academy grounds?" The New Dean frowned, his voice laced with concern. "You do realize that aside from the Orcs in the Second Dimension who already have a bounty on his head, he's also made enemies with the Faction?, And from the way things look, they won’t be satisfied until he’s dead."Alderic chuckled, shaking his head. "That’s exactly why we should send him out, he’s tough, and no one would be stupid enough to go after him from the Faction especially not with Mad Dog returning soon, and if they do send anyone, it’ll be disposable hunting dogs, the kind with no ties back to them."He leaned forward, his sharp gaze gleaming with confidence. "Besides, I doubt anyone they send would make it back alive, even though Terran hasn’t been given access to the Mental Training Rooms, which makes it harder for him to be able to repair his soul injuries, and hasn't made any progress in broking through to Tier 8 yet, bu
