[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 1Battle power: 57As 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.[59 experience points earned][10 system points earned][Level up! +3 attribute points][Status Tab]Name: Alec GordonsRace: HumanLevel: 3Tier: 1 (Low Tier)■ Experience until next level: 4/500[Attributes]Strength: 9+Agility: 11+Endurance: 8+Mana: (35/100)Affinity: Earth (High+), Fire (High+)Available attribute points: 3System points: 40

[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

Before they left, Alec finally noticed some notifications on the screen that he had previously ignored due to being engrossed in a heated battle. However, now that he was no longer clashing with zombies, he had more time to properly examine them.

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 . It was a daunting challenge, to say the least.Although Alec felt the weight of the mission press upon him, he

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

The mana coiled around the level 0 golem's body, reinforcing it with earth elements from the surroundings.Alec stood there, mesmerized by the magical transformation taking place right before his eyes.The Lanzt family members looked at him with anticipation, eagerly awaiting an explanation.However, Alec found himself at a loss for words.This was his first attempt at evolving his golem's rank, and he himself was perplexed by the incredible changes taking place.The blinding light emitted by the excess mana finally began to fade, revealing the beautifully transformed Golem in all its glory.The swirling earth elements continued to surround the golem as its body underwent a drastic changetaking on a muscular and tall humanoid frame.The earth elements quickly formed a protective armor around its body, merging seamlessly with him as he also had a newly elongated spear.The colors shifted, becoming a rich blend of brown and black.Just when Alec thought he had seen it all, he felt the r

He was truly curious about what was happening because he had advanced to level 5 rapidly.He was aware that he received a bonus exp point from every enemy his Golems killed, but the rate of improvement seemed unusually fast, as if there was some additional assistance involved.Except for Titan, who was capable of killing multiple zombies at once, the other Golems didn't quite measure up. This fact left Alec lost in thought.Alec's head shot up, surprised by a voice that seemed to speak to him. He knew he wasn't hallucinating, and it definitely wasn't the voice of the system he was familiar with. The gender of the voice left him puzzled
The Golem Mage Prelude to the Final Fight
"Wow, no wonder we never got attacked by Tier 1 zombies, It must have been because they were protecting something or someone," Arthur exclaimepointing out to the seven approaching zombies.As the mixed group of strength type, agility type, and defense type zombies ran towards Legion, they tried to intercept his charge towards whatever it was they were protecting.Alec pondered to himself, "Hmm, it seems this (Peak) Tier 1 zombie can control those weaker than itselt, It looks like that old man, wasn't lying when he said hierarchy is strictly followed among zombies."The Lanzt family watched in awe as Legion finally dashed forward to face the seven Tier 1 zombies that were rushing towards him."How can it be so strong?, Am I hallucinating? ,Please, guys, tell me I'm the only one seeing what's happening at the moment," Sheila Lanzt asked in disbelief."Unfortunately, I can see it too, This is one of the reasons I never wanted to be enemies with that guy, I still feel like he's hiding so

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

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

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
Changes 2.
Alec scrolled all the way to the top of his notifications, finally spotting the first issue he knew he needed to deal with.He quickly realized that just like his earth element, his fire element had also advanced to the second stage of Manipulation, meaning he was now to possess two variant flame abilities, and it wasn’t just that it had advanced; there were already two distinct powers present, which left him slightly confused.He could easily understand where the Magma Control had come from, considering it was like a natural progression of his red flames, and honestly, Alec would be lying if he said he didn’t like it, he knew Magma was an extremely destructive flame type, one many considered beyond the limits of ordinary fire powers. As far as he was concerned, it was a seriously cool ability to have, and he was already hoping he’d get the hang of it sooner rather than later.But what unsettled him a little, though, was the second variant that came with his fire element: something
