MMORPG: Rise of the Primordial Godsmith
chapter-442

After Zeik fell to the ground on his butt from the utter disbelief he felt from witnessing Valyr dispose of monsters near the peak of Rank 3 without much of a problem, the man eventually stood up after taking a few deep breaths, inwardly letting out a sigh as the two of them swiftly made their way to Site 9, the final site within Point Caelion.

While making their way to the point's final site, Zeik looked at Valyr every once in a while, wondering what was going on in the young man's head at the moment. Though the young man mentioned that they had arrived at Site 7 for him to do a bit of warm-up before getting serious, he had killed only a couple dozen of monsters within the site without difficulty before proceeding to request for a change.

'Is he trying to find out his current limit?' Zeik wondered to himself, thinking that there was some sense to the idea. 'After all, he moved from a normal Level 50 monster, to one at the Elite tier, and then the Uncommon Elite tier after that.'

'He's probably trying to see how strong the monster would need to be before he would be unable to kill them in a short time or something,' thought the man not long after, only recalling the barrage of orange crimson flames the young man would sent out in response to the monster's charge.

With that thought in mind, the two eventually arrived at Site 9, stopping once more in an area that was a fair distance away from the sea of monsters that existed within the site. Of course, unlike at Site 7, where almost all of the monsters in the site were Metallic Centipedes, the prominent monsters at Site 9 were completely different.

"Say, Zeik. What's the highest tier of monster I could possibly come across in this site?" Proceeding to scour the entire sea of monsters once more to find a monster that would fit the requirements needed to upgrade the title, Valyr threw a question at his escort, prompting the latter to go silent as he pondered over it.

"Hmm… I'm pretty sure Rare Elites are the strongest tier of monsters you would commonly find in this site." Zeik looked back at Valyr, whose attention was focused on finding the monster he needed. "Though, I think some people have said that if you're unlucky, you might come across an Epic Elite?"

"I'm not so keen on that one." Scratching the back of his head as he wondered whether Valyr listened to what he said, Zeik eventually shrugged his shoulders as he watched what Valyr would do now that they were at the point's final site.

"Finally found one." Due to the fact that Mana Stone Golems had huge bodies made out of stone, Valyr had to kill quite around 20 of them, all of them Rare Elite due to the curse's effects, to be able to finally come across a Mana Stone Golem that was at Rare Elite tier.

Of course, with his target locked, he then moved a few steps forward, allowing the Rare Elite tier Mana Stone Golem to be within a hundred meters from Valyr, causing its eyes to glow a crimson red as its energy now seemed to match a monster of a higher tier.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

With its eyes locked on Valyr's presence, the Mana Stone Golem seemed to go berserk as every step it made closer to the young man made the ground faintly tremble. At the speed it was going, it was enough to make Zeik briefly look at Valyr with a hint of worry, wondering whether the latter had finally bitten more off than he could chew.

But just like before…

"[Crimson Blade Torrent]!"

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Out of nowhere, a barrage of orange crimson flames manifested in front of Valyr, all of them darting straight for the Mana Stone Golem's body as its destructive energy dealt massive damage to the monster with each hit. Eventually, the Mana Stone Golem's regenerative capabilities were overwhelmed by the crimson blades, causing it to crumble to rubble as a notification sound soon resounded within Valyr's mind.

'I wonder how far I could upgrade this title?' Seeing that the title's description still contained a part that explained the requirements needed to upgrade it even further, a question popped up into Valyr's mind as he proceeded to look for another monster that would fit his requirements. 'Anyways, a Legendary Elite monster 15 levels higher than me…'

…

"…" Watching as Valyr proceeded to fight against all of the Mana Stone Golems that came after him just as he had finished killing a Rare Elite tier Mana Stone Golem, Zeik wondered to himself as to why he was accompanying Valyr in the first place. After all, as far as he knew, a Rare Elite monster of a certain rank was already equivalent in strength to a monster of the next rank.

"He says he's not sure if he could take down Rank 4 Elite monsters with his current strength, but that level of strength he's shown me is probably enough to even fight those at the peak of Rank 4 with ease." Taking a deep breath to make sure a repeat of what happened earlier would not happen, Zeik watched as Valyr eventually stopped being hounded by Mana Stone Golems, the latter keeping a close eye on one of the Mana Stone Golems near the periphery that seemed stronger than the rest.

"Epic Elite tier…" Casting his own identification skill at the monster Valyr was looking at, Zeik soon became privy to the monster's real strength, swallowing a bit of saliva from the anxiety of wondering whether the young man had finally met his match.

Of course, seeing the Epic Elite tier Mana Stone Golem dash towards Valyr only exacerbated that anxious feeling.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

With the ground quaking once more under the Mana Stone Golem's heavy footsteps, Valyr stood where he was, gazing at the monster that was getting closer to him with a calm expression. On the other hand, the worry Zeik felt towards Valyr's safety became greater, inwardly cursing Valyr for not dodging what seemed to be an obvious attack.

However, this concern swiftly disappeared as he witnessed Valyr's next step.

"[Shadow Serpent Style]…"

"[Strike of the Venomous Night]."

Swoosh!

Bang!

…
