Chapter 979 A Tier 8 Boss Appears
-----
As we fought with Aquarina, I could sense my friends approaching with my expanded Spiritual and Mana Senses, plus my Heavenly Sight.
I discovered that by combining the Heavenly Sight's power and effects with my Aura Senses, it was possible to also share a part of Heavenly Sight's incredible sighting powers.
Meaning that I couldn't just sense them coming… I could see them as clearly as day, even beyond the walls and monsters. It was a terrifying ability, especially because if I can master it, I could glance through all things.
Nothing could ever escape my gaze…
I think I've heard from my mother that my Grandfather was also a hero several hundreds of years ago. And he received the same blessing I did, he evolved it to the point he could see through his entire Kingdom and watch for all dangers.
He's a living sentinel! I guess this is where the saying "nobody can escape the elf king's gaze" comes from…
"Hahh! We're getting closer! [Tempestuous Rampage]!"
I could see Zack swinging his axe against several Stone Golems and Spirit Crystal Golems, breaking them apart by attacking the areas Mist's arrows hit and blew up.
CRAAASH! CRAAASH! CRAAASH!
Explosions of lightning and winds erupted with each of his strikes, the golems crumbled down as Mist smiled and fired her arrows with her mighty magic bow.
"[Celestial Starlight Arrows]!"
She imbued the power of her spirit into her attacks as we were taught, her arrows flying around like beautiful stars, exploding one after another once they hit a target.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
The two kept running forwards, followed by Lara and Luck right behind them.
"Hehehe, this is so fun! We're all hurrying up to get to the end!" Lara giggled; she was floating in midair as Wind Spirits encompassed her like a veil of air. "[Divine Saintly Spirit Summoning Magic]: [Spirit Garden]!"
FLASH!
Her surroundings changed, flourishing with all types of plants and nature growing everywhere. All of them made of spirits she fused together.
The garden moved on their own, giant roots and flowers emerging from them and even golems made of dirt, attacking her surroundings!
Could her Magic just do anything she had in mind?! She was so broken!
"I'll copy Sylphy's Harvest Familiars, hehe! [Fire Flowers of Spiritual Flames]! [Sunlight Trees of Saintly Light]!"
She raised her scepter, which shone with a brilliant rainbow light, strengthening all her spirits and even those of her surrounding friends.
Her garden shook, suddenly dozens of flowers made of flames emerged, firing lasers of fire against the golems, and destroying their limbs.
At the same time, giant Treants made of pure light emerged too, swinging their giant claws, and destroying the weakened golems.
And as the Metal golems approached…
"[Dark Pumpkin Reapers of Abyssal Darkness]!"
Even the Spirits of Darkness responded to her call, fusing together into large copies of my Jack-o-Lanterns, surging from the Spiritual Garden, and attacking our foes with their sharp scythes.
SLAASH! SLAASH! SLAASH!
"Hmmm… But just copying is boring." Lara said. "Okay let's do something original! [Spirit Fusion]! [Spirit Weaponization]!"
She suddenly waved her scepter, all the Spirit Garden fused together and then wrapped around her body, transforming into a huge armor of rainbow spiritual metal!
"[Spiritual Rainbow Princess Armor]!"
FLAAASH!
Her armor exuded a bright and pure light of spiritual energy so brilliant even my eyes from afar felt a bit of pain.
"Hehehe, I can punch now too!"
FLASH! FLASH! FLASH!
Lara moved leaving a trail of rainbows behind her, as she kicked and punched the golems by creating giant gauntlets of spirit metal, born from spirit fusion and spirit weaponization.
BAAAM! BAAAM! BAAAM! BAAAM!
Her overwhelming attacks were strong and fast, quickly making several Golems stumble down. Luck appeared right behind her, shocked his friend was fighting head-on now.
"You're fighting physically now?! Your physical stats suck though?" Luck was shocked, his appearance having changed as he had white fur and black stripes, tiger-like tail, claws, and ears as well as big fangs.
"Hey! How rude! I can do some fightin' if I want to!" Lara giggled. "Like this! [Spirit Fusion]! [Spirit Weaponization]!"
Her Armor was repurposed again, turning into several gigantic hammers of rainbow light, and smashing down three crystal golems and two stone golems into smithereens.
BAAAM! BAAAM! BAAAM!
"That's ridiculous… I cannot just keep falling behind you!" Luck said. "Golden Tiger! Let's go! [ Divine Beast Transformation]!"
FLASH!
His body underwent a further transformation, not only just gaining superficial changes, but his physical form, body size, and muscles were enhanced!
His legs and arms became extremely muscular, his torso grew larger, and his head… suddenly turned into that of a giant golden tiger!
"ROOOAAARRR!"
With a mighty roar, the golems stepped back in surprise, intimidated by Luck's almighty bestial prowess. He leaped into the skies like a flash of pure golden light, reaching the golems and crushing them with his legs, enormous and muscular like those of an actual giant tiger!
"[Divine Beast Aura]! [Celestial Golden Tiger's Blinding Kicks]!"
CRAAASH! CRAAASH! CRAAASH!
By combining the almighty power of his golden aura, which emerged as a roaring golden tiger, and then his blindingly fast lightning kicks, he devastated the golems one after another.
The spiritual crystal golems attacked him with elemental attacks, but he tanked them all as a veil of gold protected his body, his leaps making enormous tremors that caused the entire cave to tremble continuously.
"GRUOOOHHHH!"
Two Metal Golems stood before his path as his giant claws simply flared with golden flames, his powers erupting with tremendous might.
"[Elemental Claw]! [Blazing Golden Tiger's Flames]!"
SLAAASH!! SLAAASH!
His blazing claws pierced through the golems, melting their bodies with each slash until they crumbled down into the ground into pure liquid metal…
"Wow! So cool, so cool!" Lara clapped her hands happily as she saw Luck doing his best.
Meanwhile, Celica and Zephyrus were right behind them, taking down all the Stone Golems and Crystal Golems that were ignored by the rest, accumulating points while advancing steadily.
And about Celeste?
"You damn brats! Did you thought you could escape from meeee?!"
She was right behind us!
"Well, too bad, we're about to fight the boss now!" I laughed at her.
Right in front of Aquarina and I, there was a huge throne made of metal and crystals, and sitting over it, an ancient-looking golem's eyes lighted up with golden light.
Ding!
[The [Ancient Giant Mithril Golem (Tier 8)] has awakened from its slumber!]
[His very presence, imbued with the almighty power of Mithril and Magic Power, exudes Magical Force that protects him!]
[Thanks to the [Aura of Magical Mithril], all his Physical and Magical Defenses have increased by +300%]
"GRUOOOHHHH!"
The giant stood up, surpassing fifteen meters of height. It seemed less bulkier than the other golems though, and much lankier, as if it were agile.
It grabbed a giant hammer made of metal and crystals right beneath it, imbuing it with an aura of blue mana… The axe then lighted up with countless colors.
"It's here, a Tier 8 monster! I didn't thought we would find one this strong in here!" I said in surprise.
"Tier 8 Monsters… Even when we fought Arachne's army, those were still super rare!" Aquarina smiled. "Alright… Nothing's tougher than this bastard to toughen up my fists with!"
The two of us confronted the Boss first!
