Journey Of A Legend

Chapter 31: A Dangerous Foe

[After Greg went inside the zone]

"I came here to kill."

Joe and Henry looked at the bald man before them and raised their guard.

"This man is dangerous. We should call for help.", said quietly Henry to Joe on his side.

Joe knew Henry too well. He was a Soul Collecter ranked fighter, who was on the verge of ranking up and also an elite in his field. If Henry was this cautious and tried to call for backup then that should mean only one thing.

"This man should be a Creator ranked person."

As everyone knows, the first three ranks are the Awakened, Manifester, and Soul Collector rank.

In these three ranks, one only needs to concentrate to consume energy crystals to rank up, however, after reaching the Creator rank a new systematic will come in.

In the Creator rank, one needs to specifically train their Guardian's power, while consuming energy crystals to rank up.

However, this is not everything. In the Creator rank, as the name indicates, one can create different weapons, objects, phenomenons, or other things with their ability for a limited time.

What they can create is fully under the influence of their power. For example, if one has a healing ability in the Creator rank, one can make their vicinity a healing area, helping to heal the injuries of not just one person but a full team instead.

Joe looked at the man and tried to look for any clue what's his ability could be, however, there was nothing he could notice.

Henry put his hand on his waist and pushed a small button.

"Oh? You don't need to try calling for help. I made sure that no one will disturb our fun.", said R with a smile.

Henry instantly knew that the man did something to disturb the signal, so instead of trying again, he stepped before Joe and said calmly, "Young master, please listen carefully. No matter what happens, stay all the time behind me."

Joe nodded slightly, however, he felt something was wrong.

"Haha! Do you think you can beat me? How funny!"

As R said that, he stomped on the ground and suddenly small earth golems appeared around him one after another. Their number grew rapidly and they reached the hundreds almost instantly.

Henry saw this and was a bit shocked.

"A summoner ability in the earth system. However if I'm right those are just normal minions and the real deal is somewhere else, no?", asked Henry, while looking at R.

R just laughed and said, "You are really smart, however, you made a small mistake. These are not normal minions."

In an instant, as he said that, all the earth golems started to ran toward the two ready to kill them.

Henry seeing this, raised his hand and a black scythe appeared in his hand.

*SWISH!*

With a quick and smooth slash, he severed all the minions head, however just as he did that, the heads on the ground touched each other and formed a new golem, while the headless ones grabbed the ground, pulled out a handful of earth, and made another head.

Just like that, more earth golems appeared before him.

"Special power indeed. If we can't cut them, because there will be more, then we just need to turn them into dust.", thought Joe and without any hesitation, he pointed toward the sky.

In an instant, black clouds appeared above the golems and a second later thunderbolts struck down, hitting the minions head with insane power.

*BOOOM!*

*BANG!*

Thunderbolts hit the golems one after another, however, the attacks could only leave small black marks on the surface of them and nothing more.

The terrifying bolts of lightning now couldn't even damage those summons of the man.

The man saw this and laughed, "Hahaha! Do you really think those weak sparks could damage my golems? Haha, how funny!"

As the man laughed, the minions continued to attack the two, trying to kill them.

Henry swung his scythe from time to time, however every time he slashed the minions head off, one more summon appeared, while the other headless ones regenerated their heads instantly.

As time went by minute after minute, Henry looked at the minions around him and thought, "In the beginning, there was only a hundred, but now there are at least double of the amount of them. If this goes on, we will die because of their overpowering numbers."

Seeing as Henry and Joe was still alive, the bald man looked down onto his watch on his wrist and looked at the time.

"I'm running out of time. I should hurry up.", murmured the man and looked up.

As he watched Henry and Joe, suddenly the area around him turned deep brown.

The ground, the grass, the plants and trees, everything in a thousand meters turned brown.

"Sorry for the inconvenience, but I need to hurry, so I will just finish you off with one attack."

Henry and Joe felt as their power got weaker, while those golem's ability and speed got stronger and faster.

*BOOM!*

*SWISH!*

*PLUMP*

Slashes after slashes, lightnings after lightnings fell on the golems, severing their heads, bodies, and body parts off, however just like before, they regenerated and replicated with insane speed.

Seeing that this wasn't enough to kill them, R clicked his tongue and clapped. As he did that, instead of a normal clapping sound a strange sound could be heard.

*Dang~Dang*

The sound was very strange because it was quiet yet loud, gentle yet harsh. Two fully opposite sound effects could be heard simultaneously.

Hearing the sound, all the golems stopped attacking and started to retreat.

Henry and Joe were confused, but in the next second their eyes widened in shock, while they raised their head higher and higher.

The small minions started to attach their bodies to each other and a while later, a hundred or more meters high earth Golem appeared before them.

The Golem looked massive and because of that strange boosting area effect, its power was terrifying.

Its aura was telling Henry that it reached the peak of the Creator rank and if he tries to defend against one of its attacks, he will be dead for sure.

"Well, it was my pleasure to meet you. As for now, have a nice trip to hell.", said R with a smile and clapped his hand.

Hearing the clap, the golem raised it's gigantic hands and chopped at the two ants sized humans before it.

Henry saw this and could only sigh.

"I'm sorry young Master. It was all because of m-"

Just before he could finish his sentence, the zone not far away from them started to vibrate and suddenly a black smoke shot out from it, hitting the golem's hand.

*Pssst*

Like acid falling onto human flesh, Henry heard a melting sound, so he looked up at the golem.

As he did, his mouth opened wide in shock.

Before him, where the black smoke hit the Golem's fist, black larvas were crawling, making the surface of the Golem to melt away at a rapid pace.

And the most shocking scene was that those larvas started to eat their way up toward the Golem's head, without stopping.

Joe saw this, looked behind him, and started to smile.

"Ahh, luckily I arrived on time."

As Greg walked out of the zone, the crack behind him started to shrink and after a second it disappeared into thin air.

The bald man looked at Greg with shock. Feeling as his power was just in the Manifester rank, he pointed at Greg and shouted at him angrily.

"Who the f*ck are you kid and what the hell did you do to my summon?! If you won't answer right away, I will make sure to gut you alive!"

Greg scratched his neck and looked at the man with a strange look.

"And you are?"
