The Golem Mage

Chapter 11: Time To Act

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 endurance

A 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 knew about this power, they would have saved themselves the trip to the blacksmith, opting instead to create their weapons using their own mana.

Empowered by this newfound knowledge, Alec not only upgraded Titan's mace but also seized the opportunity to enhance his shield, elevating it to level 5.

Such advancements brought a surge of excitement and satisfaction, knowing that he had strengthened both his and Titan's defenses to an impressive degree.

[ Guard shield ]

Weapon lvl : 5( upgrade golem rank to upgrade)

+3 strength

+12 endurance

As the Mace priorities the strength stats, the shield priorities endurance , and Alec didn't take it too seriously.

It was all just for fun, an experiment using his mana, However, he ended up creating something that made Titan overpower a zombie in the same realm as him.

" It seems to have the power of a (Mid)Tier 1 mage "

everyone thought, impressed with Alec's ability to have a (mid) Tier 1 golem while still being in the (low) Tier 1 rank.

Only Alec knew that they were mistaken, It was the reinforced weapons that gave Titan the strength to reach that level, but it still couldn't defeat an opponent in a direct confrontation.

It's strength relied on the items, so if Titan were to drop either the shield or the mace, it would lose it's advantage.

"Wow, that's so cool,"

Arthur exclaimed, looking at Alec with star-struck eyes.

"We're still on the battlefield, idiot, Get off me," Alec said, trying to push Arthur away while bypassing the seven level zero golems that surrounded him.

"You're strong, I'll train harder to catch up to you," Alec heard someone say

He turned and saw Agnes, another dual elementalist like him and Arthur, standing beside her was someone with a cloak and a masked face that reminded him of the ninjas from his previous world movies.

"Who is that?" Alec asked Arthur, realizing he had no memory or idea of him since they had never met before.

"Well, that's Gordon Knight, I guess you don't talk much with the family members, even though you're the young master and leader of the Gordon family's younger generation, He's like us - awakened with dual elements. It seems to be earth and darkness," Arthur explained.

"Hmm, it seems the family will have another strong member in the future if he trains diligently," Alec mused.

"You never said that to me,"

Arthur complained, pouting, Alec, though tired of Arthur's acting, ignored him, He had just used his inspection skills on Arthur and was shocked by his abilities.

[Gordon Arthur]

Elements: Earth (mid), Metal (high)

Level: Tier one mage (low)

Battle power: 70

Meanwhile, Agnes only had 60 percent in her battle power, indicating that if she were to clash with Arthur, she would have a higher chance of losing.

The 10 percent difference would not be easily bridged.

By the time Alec finished analyzing their battle power, Titan had returned and taken his place by his side.

It had a dangerously shining red eyes, yet appeared calm as if it hadn't just slaughtered two dangerous zombies.

The archers from the family were intimidated by the blood still on Titan's mace, gulping down nervously as they looked at him.

"Good job,"

Alec praised Titan, even though he knew it was just a golem, It was his first intelligent and rare golem.

To his surprise, the golem nodded back at him, showing its high level of intelligence and ability to understand him easily.

Alec glanced at the guys holding the frontline and noticed most of them were slowing down, their fatigue accumulating.

Due to the incredibly high number of zombies attacking the south gate, Alec was certain that if they continued like this, casualties would soon start to pile up.

[ Rock Golem ]

Level : 0 ( unclassified )

Rank : Normal

Battle power : 10.

He surveyed the seven level zero golems he had created, contemplating the idea of replacing some of his clan members with his team of clay constructs.

After all, the golems didn't have to worry about stamina, since they were practically made with mana and only fed off Alec's mana to repair their damaged bodies.

"System, is there a way to ensure that these normal rank golems level up to level one and gain the same powers as a lower tier mage?" Alec asked, his voice laced with curiosity.

[x : Yes, there is, They have to kill a hundred level zero life forms, like those weak zombies your family members are currently fighting, or they can kill ten level one life forms instead, The choice is yours.]

As the System finished explaining, Alec realized that his mana had decreased by another 20, leaving him with around 70 mana.

He had been meditating, attempting to recover the lost mana that the System had taken from him, and thankfully, the process was going smoothly and quickly.

Perhaps it was because of the numerous zombies that had been slain, making the mana in the air more concentrated.

It had created an environment where it was easier for someone to have a smooth breakthrough.

However, Alec knew that no one would be foolish enough to attempt a breakthrough in the middle of a war-like environment like this, Everyone was on edge and focused on defending themselves.

Looking around, Alec noticed that only the Tier 1 mages from his Clan had joined the defense, Not a single Tier 2 mage had come to lend a hand.

Arthur, sensing Alec's realization, asked, "Seems like you noticed, huh?"

Alec simply nodded, realizing that the weaker zombies were being used as a training tool for the Tier 1 mages to gain battle experience.

This small part of the army that had been left out of the portal was obviously expendable, They were being used by the higher tier zombies to drain the strength of their opponents.

"I will take care of this,"

Alec muttered to himself, his resolve evident in his firm eyes, Arthur couldn't help but smile, proud to follow such a cool boss.

Alec poured all his mana into creating spears with earth magic, despite the lack of sand or ground nearby.

He manipulated his mana, altering the earth elements in the atmosphere to assist in forming the weapons.

This act caught the attention of his grandfather, who observed Alec's improved control over mana in real time.

Even after finishing the creation of the spears, Alec wasn't done, He continued to transfer more mana into each spear, ensuring the compression of earth elements on them, effectively leveling them up.

Each stone spear now possessed significant power:

[Stone Spear]

Weapon Level: 5 (...)

+7 Strength

+7 Agility

+1 Endurance

However, this effort took a toll on Alec, costing him 10 mana for each spear, He panted in exhaustion and felt dizzy from the aftereffects of depleting all his mana for this singular goal.

Yet, when he saw the golems each grab a spear, he knew it was all worth it, He fantasized about the massacre they were about to commit, knowing these spears would make them as strong as a semi-tier one mage, someone on the cusp of breaking through to tier one rank.

Though they may not have the same strength as tier one mages, there were more than enough golems to sweep through the unclassified zombies with ease.

The spears had boosted their battle power by 30 each.

"Attack!"

Alec commanded the seven golems, with Titan remaining behind as his trusty shield, The golems charged forward, swiftly overtaking the fatigued warriors in front of Alec.

"Make way for the golems! Fall back and recover your mana,"

Alec ordered the Gordon family members, surprising them with his leadership, Though taken aback, they obeyed and retreated, while the zombies attempted to exploit this opening and attack the zombies.

" Stab"

Without hesitation, they wasted no time in thrusting their spears clumsily towards the heads of the zombies.

The weapons penetrated the zombies' heads with a single thrust, and then they quickly withdrew their weapons to repeat the process on the other zombies attempting to climb over their fallen comrade.

The satisfying sound of victory echoed:

[ Ding! ]

[ +10 experience gained from killing five level 0 zombie ].
