Having entered into the core of the glacier, Marcus found what looked like an unbelievable sight.
There was a pool of lava that was bubbling out from the ground that had caused a massive opening in the glacier.
Yet this was the least impressive part of what lay before Marcus’ eyes. For in this area there were numerous ice and fire elemental crystals, and in the center there were two incredibly pure ones that were beyond anything that Marcus had ever seen.
However, along with these two crystals that shot out from the lava and hung from the top of the glacier. There was the boss of the Remorhaz and the frost worms.
It was a titanic creature that seemed to be some sort of mutation between the two species, and it had wrapped itself around both of these elemental crystals and was absorbing the massive amounts of power that each of them had.
‘Damn level sixty-eight. Whatever that thing is I do not think I can take it right now in a straight fight. Maybe if I use soul burst, but I would prefer not to have my stats quartered right now.’
Floating above the colossal monster that was over two hundred feet long. Marcus contemplated what to do.
He certainly wanted those elemental crystals since they would come in handy, and he already had plans for the ice one for an item he was going to be making.
Also, if he could get the core and body parts of the boss of the glacier, they would be very useful as well.
‘Hm maybe I can distract it and get it away from those crystals. Then I can hit it with my biggest attack and hopefully kill it.’
With a plan forming in his head, Marcus slowly scouted out the rest of the chamber to make sure he had not missed any other valuables that might have ended up here..
‘Okay everything is accounted for now, but there is one last thing I need to check before I start.’
Bring his scythe out from his soul, Marcus sent it down towards the mutated frost worm Remorhaz combo monster.
He needed to make sure that this deadly creature that was probably one of the strongest monsters in the kingdom, could not since ethereal beings.
Luckily his test worked. And even when he waved the scythe right in its face, it did not have any reaction at all.
Still, the second he made a hostile action it was likely the creature would sense it as it was pretty much impossible for a being of this level to not be able to detect danger.
Floating out of this chamber and into the surrounding one he had passed through. Marcus stared at the level fifty-one frost worm with a look of pity.
‘Sorry, but I am going to need you to serve as my distraction.’
As Marcus possessed the level fifty-one frost worm. The unsuspecting creature fought back with all its might.
Its instincts told it that whatever happened, it could not let this intruder take over.
It began thrashing about wildly, causing massive cracks to go up and down the area of the glacier it resided in, and even unleashed a blast of frost from its mouth.
Still its struggle was in vain, and soon Marcus was the one in control of the frost worm’s body.
‘Wow this feels weird. This is the first time I have possessed such a creature and it is completely different from anything else.’
Slowly he began moving around in his new puppet’s body, getting used to how it moved.
Certainly, it was far from what he was used to, as this creature had hundreds of tiny legs that it used to propel itself against the ice.
Never before had Marcus had to consciously use so many limbs, and all the while the frost worm was fighting back against him its soul being just strong enough to not be completely suppressed.
‘Better make this quick, before it becomes too difficult to keep possessing.’ Marcus thought once he figured out how to use the worm’s breath attack.
Wriggling his way down, he stuck the head of the ice worm into the boss’ chamber, and the monster keyed in on him immediately.
It then let out a disgruntled sounding, as if telling the frost worm to back off.
‘Well, it is now or never.’
Opening up the frost worm’s mouth, Marcus unleashed its winter blast right for the much larger and more imposing Remorhaz worm fusion.
Seeing this, the boss of the glacier was completely caught off guard. Never expecting one of its subordinates to attack it.
It was far and away the strongest monster here, and easily could have taken on all of the others on its own.
Of course, it had no idea that right now Marcus had taken control of one of its loyal lieutenants, and was using its body for his own ends.
When the blast of cold energy hit the mutated monster, steam immediately began to erupt in the chamber.
‘Time to run.’
Backing up as fast as he could Marcus compelled the frost worm to move through the glacier at incredible speeds.
Yet he had made it only about two thirds of the distance he wanted, when he felt a very sharp pain from the frost worm’s back end.
The boss of this area was apparently much faster than Marcus had anticipated, and its reaction was very swift.
However, with their current combined stats, Marcus dug into the ice and pulled with all of his and the frost worm’s might.
‘This is my stop.’
Unpossessing the large frost worm, Marcus left its body just in time as the Remorhaz frost worm fusion. unleashed a massive blast of flames that incarnated the poor level fifty-one frost worm in an instant.
Unfortunately, its death happened much quicker than he had planned and now his distraction was already running out of time.
‘Plan B it is.’
With his initial distraction meeting its end early, Marcus knew he needed something else to keep the mutated monster’s attention.
‘Iron golem.’
‘Ravenous abyss.’
Casting his tier four iron magic spell and tier five darkness magic spell. Marcus conjured up his two autonomous creatures.
‘Attack that monster. Keep it busy for as long as you can.’ Marcus ordered to his two spell created monsters.
Immediately they both followed his orders and began attacking the Remorhaz frost worm.
With the biggest threat distracted for the moment. Marcus floated back down towards the main chamber as fast as he could, since time was of the essence.
Unfortunately, when he arrived he found that three other monsters had entered the area and were protecting the elemental crystals in their master’s stead.
There were now two Remorhazes that were both level fifty-two, and a level fifty frost worm.
‘Well, they are strong, but I can deal with them quickly.’
Taking aim at the two Remorhazes fist, Marcus cast both of his tier six light and dark magic spells.
In an instant these two monsters were completely blown apart by overwhelming power that they had no chance of surviving.
Following that, as the frost worm began screaming out a distress call. Marcus cast his voltaic bombardment spell and shot it full of hundreds of bolts of lightning.
Then while it was paralyzed he cast a heightened darkness and spell bore right through the frost worms head. killing it instantly.
Within just a few seconds Marcus had neutralized the three threat and floated towards the two highest quality elemental crystals. Intent on claiming his prize.
“And these are now my property.”
