Chapter 431: [Bonus Chapter] Breaking Records-8, A Strange Reward.
" Hey hey, This almost feels like cheating, lad. What are those creatures? " Spoke the blue genie as he sat right beside Athan.
" Shsss...Don\'t disturb me. " Athan indifferently spoke with his eyes closed as he moved his hands; more specifically, He moved his fingers constantly as if he was controlling something by doing that. If one looked carefully, One could see dark blue threads with purple hue connected to his fingers.
Currently, Athan was inside a small floating castle while many monsters were attacking the castle. The castle had a total of fifteen one-meter big crystals of different colors embedded around it.
[ Hold the Fortress ]
In this event, One had the defend the castle and the crystals embedded by it. The target of the monsters was crystals. They wouldn\'t attack Athan and even ignore him for the sake of destroying the castle and the crystals.
The monsters would come in waves. The participants are given a certain amount of time, a maximum of two minutes, to prepare their techniques, traps, etc., to kill, impede and prevent the monsters from destroying the crystals for one hour and defend the castle.
Now it was almost time for the hour to over, but Athan hadn\'t let a crystal to get destroyed.
The whole castle was covered with Arachnid\'s Demon Web and fifteen strange-looking beasts.
Voidlings.
Athan had created Voidlings and assigned them to protect the crystals. At first, he created only two voidlings because of time restriction, and he himself defended the crystals. But after clearing waves and taking his time, He had now sat inside the castle while leaving the crystals for his Voidlings to defend.
He was also controlling the web structure outside of the castle to trap and impede monsters so that his voidlings could finish them off.
The voidlings he created were in the shape of one-meter tall mantises. Their body was black mixed with green and silver patterns. Naturally, They were black and white first, but he added more voidpulse inside them and transformed them into Aegis Starwood chaotic power to make them defensive, so they could last until the end of the event.
While they were defensive, They were also offensive due to their sharp razor hands made from Abyssal darkness.
The Blue Genie was somewhat speechless seeing Athan controlling the demon web to trap and impede monsters while letting those strange creatures kill the monsters.
\' How did he create those creatures? They are also powerful. What kind of ability is that? \'
The Genie was wondering to himself as he looked at this ridiculous fiasco.
This time, Athan didn\'t consume any abyssal darkness to coat the Arachnid\'s Demon web. Instead, He gave it the nature of Force of Glittering River to lower the defense of monsters so that His voidlings also consume less abyssal darkness to kill them.
*Booooooooom...*
Athan moved his fingers as he consumed chaos force. This caused the faint dark blue threads from his fingers to suddenly become bright dark blue threads. Athan was sitting in the middle of the castle hall while the threads from his fingers were connected to outside through several windows of the castle.
Outside...Athan had created a spider-web-like structure in front of the incoming attack of the monster that was coming towards a crystal. This attack looked like a fireball with dark orange energy swirling inside it.
It hit the spider-web-like structure and destroyed it, but a mantis voidling was standing right in front of the crystal to protect it as it turned around and showed his back that became a solid Starwood Aegis prism-shaped armor after it adjusted its body and shrunk it.
The attack couldn\'t break past the mantis. Athan nodded with a faint smile, \' That defense structure of voidlings is working well. \'
He then trapped the attacker monster that looked like a lizard with two heads using his Arachnid\'s demon web before letting the Mantis Voidling finish it off.
Just like that, few more minutes passed before the one hour was up, and Athan successfully defended the crystals.
" Sigh...It looks like you two are going to break every all-time high record one after another. " The blue genie spoke as he waved his right hand and created a cushion of cloud before putting something on it.
" Here is your reward for breaking the All-time high record of Hold The Fortress. "
Athan looked at the thing with doubt and asked, " What is it? "
There was a stick on top of the cloud. It looks completely normal, just like a normal tree\'s branch. But Athan could sense something profound from it, like mysterious waves of some strange power.
Blue Genie smiled while showing his white crystal teeth and spoke, " That\'s your ticket to the Chaos Enlightenment Tree. Show this stick at Wonder Hill Pavilion, and you will know the rest. The only thing I can tell you is that this stick is very valuable. "
Athan took the stick from the cloud as he looked at it carefully.
" How valuable? " Athan asked while observing the stick.
" Bahahaha...You know about unique physiques, right? Well, By showing this stick at Wonder Hill Pavilion, You will be led to a fantastic place, and there is at least a 50% chance that you will acquire a certain kind of unique physique in that place. Naturally, success depends on the person. But seeing your ability, You shouldn\'t have any problem in acquiring a certain kind of unique physique. "
Blue Genie spoke some shocking things after laughing. 50% chance to acquire a unique physique? That\'s powerful.
Athan nodded with a grin as he put the stick away. He then looked at Blue Genie before asking dully, " And? You seem to be forgetting something. "
Blue Genie was confused for a moment before he realized it and gave an embarrassed chuckle, " Cough...Here is your score. "
Athan looked at the leaderboard summoned by Blue Genie and nodded plainly, \' The difference is too big. Did I overdo it? \'
\' Meh, who cares...Anyway, thanks to this event, I seem to have grasped an interesting thing regarding the Abyssal Void of Fabrication and Voidlings. I\'ll have to expand on it later. \'
