In the Distance I saw dozens of people with yellow helmets walking near the hill's bottom. As I Got closer some of them noticed me. If I didn't receive a quest to defeat the golems residing in the cave I wouldn't be allowed to enter the cave.
" How can we help you? "
One of the workers approached me while holding a pickaxe in his left hand. Looking at his uniform I noticed a silver star pinned to his chest. Recalling its meaning I automatically bowed my head before stating my intentions.
" Hello, I've come to exterminate Golems "
I replied while looking around the area. There were various vehicles with huge drills, huge trucks used to transport ores and other materials. fre(e)webnovel
Nodding his head the Silver Star worker walked towards the cave's entrance and gestured me to follow. Being led by the Excavation's Leader I was allowed to pass through the various safety checks and scans located at the cave's entrance.
Our small walk ended when we came across a huge gate with hinges seemingly made out of gold.
Wishing me good luck I saw the Leading Demon take a few steps back and press something on his watch.
Crack...
The gates opened with a loud sound. It seemed that they weren't used in a while. Before I had time to pass through the entrance the Leader threw me another watch.
" Use this to notify me of your return "
Catching the watch I nodded my head and equipped the newly acquired loot.
1?? Signal Watch [ Bronze ]
-- Quest Item; Used to notify the Leading Demon of your return

Walking through the gate I saw a wide tunnel with torches lit on the walls. The tunnel's length could not be measured, because I couldn't see its end. Fortunately I've got some information from my past life.
The Golems have one critical weakness that creators implemented accidently. Their armpit skin is very weak. Throwing one spell at it will immobilize the whole hand.
Walking further I heard the gates behind me close. A small smile appeared on my face, shifting my body to the right. I conjured a Shadow Blast and threw it at the bundle of rocks seemingly lifelessly lying on the ground.
Boom...
-135 Magical Damage!
A Damage screen appeared on my face informing me about the enemy's presence. The previously lifeless rocks were now slowly raising up, building a figure that could touch the ceiling. keep in mind that the ceiling is at least 10 meters high.
Distancing myself from the golem I quickly scanned his body. I didn't see any ores exposed on its skin. All golems are different, some have no ores, some even have diamonds, but it's very rare. Opening The Golem's Status I quickly dodged a few stones thrown at my face.

The Golem was an Iron one. Iron Golems excel in Defense even among the golems, they don't have any spells, but their Active Skills make up for it. The scariest thing in the Iron Golem's arsenal was < Earth Manipulation >. Skills allowing to manipulate Elements are only available to players who reached Lv. 30, but these golems had it from the beginning.
Luckily these monsters had low to none intelligence, hence didn't have wide imagination. Having a good creativity and holding a Manipulation skill will spell disaster for your enemies.
Dodging another set of stones thrown at my face I release another Shadow Blast.
- 71 Magical Damage!
The HP bar of the Golem was slowly depleting. Another few Spells and it'll be dead.
Crack...
The Earth under my feet suddenly started trembling. Lowering my body to stabilize I saw a dirt wall slowly rising further in the tunnel.
' Shit! '
I cursed. I was in need of immediate cover. Ditching the golem standing still while controlling the wave I ran behind some of the wider rocks and squeezed myself behind them.
The Dirt wall quickly arrived and I felt the ground underneath me tremble.
Crash...
The Dirt crashed against the rocks saving me from death, but some of the dirt got into my eyes.
- 12 HP

I couldn't see shit. My eyes were full of dirt and it was very painful.
I heard heavy footsteps quickly approaching my location. Using my other senses I stood up and ran in the other direction.
Thump... Thump... Thump...
My light footsteps were shadowed by the Golem. Finally my vision was back, looking back I saw the same Iron Golem, but something was amiss. Looking closer I noticed that there were small cracks spreading across its huge body.
Still running I conjured a Lightning Spear and threw it at the monster's head.
- 90 Magical Damage!
The Golem's face was deformed, but it still ran after me, trying to trample an annoying bug that seemingly laughed at its tries.
My smile was continuously widening every time the golem was hit by a spell.
- 89 Magical Damage!
- 88 Magical Damage!
- 91 Magical Damage!
The Golem's strong appearance was slowly crumbling apart revealing a broken monster desperately running after its attacker.
Conjuring a Spear I let the golem approach me and swing his hands trying to smash me. I aimed for the moment its arms were raised and threw my Lightning projectile at its armpit.
- 243 Critical Hit!
