Chapter 36: The 4th story quest begins
Chapter 36: The 4th story quest begins
It's finally happening at the moment in every story where all of the pieces are gathered together. The villains and the heroes, we can't forget about the side characters, while the main character might have encountered the villain. In this trial, I was making my way through the hundreds of mutated homunculus
[It's been a while since I last saw you fight, kill them and I'll give you a good reward]
"Ignition Orb, Amplify!!!" He dodges the attacks of the homunculus and countered their advances with his spell
A loud and beautiful explosion came about as a result and he remained unscathed by their attacks. But even with that point-blank range and even if he aimed it towards their head, the homunculus manages to survive. Vigorous they were compared to the previous forms that only took them one or two spells for them to die
[Isn't this a little strong? Their power far surpasses the ones you've faced in the laboratory]
'It's the same power as that time I fought the evolved monsters in the colosseum... This potency there's no doubt about it, this is the mad alchemist's doings. I can relate to the characters in every show when the villain that they once defeated suddenly shows up unannounced. God damn those guys are so annoying, the only thing the alchemist is missing is a one-liner after their defeat,'
[System: The player Christopher Morris has activated the skill called [Shock]: A beginner lightning attribute spell there's a small chance of paralysis. The player has chosen to amplify its effects, the chances of paralysis have been increased along with its damage]
He unleashes an amplified version of shock that traveled through the dozen homunculus in his vicinity. The rain played a big part and it results in triggering a chain reaction, and before he seals them in a block of ice
"That was tiring... And they're not even dead..." His body was trembling in fear and before he could take a breather he warned by an attack
[Behind you!!!]
Without a single moment to pass he dodged an attack that came from his back, and Seper rushed to his spot. He engages Morris in a close-quarter fight and attacks him with his mutated body
[System: The character Seper Alinea has activated 25% of his transformation. He will now acquire a form that's suitable for combat purposes]
"Just die!!! A baboon like you can't even imagine the significance of my master's plans can't be left alive," Seper said driving his fist towards Morris as he continues to dodge seeing as each seeing creates a shockwave that can easily kill him
'Holy shit that's 25% one hit of that can splatter my whole body, wait a minute for some reason why is he slow? If he's an important character then his stats should be comparable to that of Deniro. And yet his speed is abnormal,'
[What's your plan? Dodging every time he tries to hit you? You'll only tire yourself]
"I'm still trying to figure out what I'm dealing with, it's hard to use appraisal with all of this moving. Wait I got it, I've found a good way to deal with this, Earth array x3," He places three circles that made the ground tremble with a flick of his finger. His spells broke the structures of the ground, he used the terrains to construct an arena. Whether it was a disadvantage to him when he trapped himself alongside his enemy
[Wait doesn't this look exactly like]
"Yep, It's like the Crimson castle but it's made of rocks, let's call it the Stone fortress, it's about time I used this spell. Let's face it, im not gonna live, this guy is on another level even if I increase my stats. I wasn't able to highlight this when I fought Airis since we were inside her field... Let's say that even if I'll waste a drop of the elixir I can still lessen the damages he'll do," He synchronized his thoughts on his spell which made it easier to manipulate the stones around his fortress
"This is your plan...? Trapping me inside a pile of rubble, I can break away with just a single punch," Seper was sent flying to the right side of the fortress after multiple stone pillars simultaneously strike him from the ground
'Ah yes, a human-size pinball machine I always wondered what it would look like... It's great that I didn't skip my training, this is the best... Shit, he found me I guess it can't be helped, there's no doubt I'll be dying here. At the very least I need to hold him off,'
[System: The character Seper Alinea has activated a skill Shockwave]
"Construct wall x5," He countered the attack by placing a wall next to each other that weakens its attack. After it pushes through every layer of the walls, Seper charged against it and made his way through the narrow space. When he reaches his target he swung another Shockwave at point-blank range
[System: The player Christoper Morris has activated the skill called [Haste]: For a short time, the player will gain a burst of movement speed]
'Okay, I think it's safe to assume what type of monster he fused with... Slow but powerful, this concludes my examination, he fused with a juggernaut. Tough as a tank and hits hard like the brute making them one of the deadliest enemies. No wonder he's the mini-boss of this trial before we could reach ever reach Deniro Alphas,'
"Don't tell me this is your limit isn't it? To think that you can't even force me to increase my power arghh," Seper was struck by a dozen spikes, that he planted in case Seper found his location. It pierces through his thick skin and he cast Wave alongside Freeze, keeping him stuck within his trap. When he was finished, he e made his way to another location
[Why are you running? You're just tiring yourself]
"A Juggernaut has a low amount of stamina, and do you think I'll have a chance? Fighting that guy in the close-quarter range is off my area, I'll die in a matter of seconds. He's not the type of person who's going to use his skills in front of a single player. That's the reason why I'm running," He weaponized the path he took after entering the next area where he waited for his enemy
He reshapes the stone into a sear and changes the walls thickening it so there's no chance of using his shockwave. His preparations for Seper's arrival were finished, and for some unknown reason, he was feeling a little uneasy, shaken even. Until he finally heard it, a Shockwave, no it's a heartbeat, that's traveling through the layered stones that he prepared. He kept his composure and he waits for his arrival to come even at this very moment
[System: You feel like you're heart is about to stop, your body is trembling as it feels the beating heart of a single person]
'No way don't tell me, wait that's not even possible how can he use that we haven't even passed story quest 5 for a mini-boss,'
[Brace yourself, it looks like that monster is about to begin his rampage]
"Can't you just die it's not hard just let the spikes strike your heart I'm not asking... whoa looks like you're not in the mood for a simple chat," He dodges his attack without any time to even counter his speed has improved
[System: The character Seper Alinea has activated 50% of his transformation he will now acquire a form that's suitable for combat and mobility]
"Did you think my master would create such a flaw in his mutations? You're dead, to think you'll be matched with my power," Seper hurled a boulder at his location and he dodges and he met Seper at his back. Another punch was ready to annihilate his existence and responded to his impending doom. He used his most powerful spell to block his attack
"Looks like they planned this out, to think that they'll go so far as to stop me from getting inside the workshop. This isn't personal but I'm going to have to kill you, I can't let anyone touch my golden goose," He finally realizes their plans and he finally unsheathes a new pair of daggers

"Mist array," He engulfed the entire area with a blinding mist which gave him the advantage in the match. Seper tried to remove the mist with a swing of his fist, but it was stopped by a stone wall
'This is only the beginning, mana amplification terrain manipulation... I construct, bring forth the sones warriors, begin your march and pin him down,'
Meanwhile at the Workshop
"Looks like my disciple is keeping the person who you talked about in check... Are you sure that my plans will succeed?" Deniro gazes from the window and observes the constructed fortress
"Don't tell me that you have some concerns about my plans. Aren't you forgetting that I'm the outcome of your failure? To think you'll question someone that has already lived your life. I replayed that moment of defeat over and over again just to help you," The mad alchemist replied whilst he's possessing a players body
"Don't worry, about a single thing as long as we keep Morris, out of the frame, we will achieve our goals, that fucking hurts can't you be a little more careful this isn't your body," The Mad Alchemist countered a knife that was hurled at his location while he's consciousness shifted through the owner
[Hugo, kill these two I sense the origin of the trial's disturbance... It's originating from the two of them, they're the ones that caused our misfortune]
"So the two of you are to blame for the trials changes," Hugo said while his deity showed his Aura
