Chapter 785 Travelling through the chambers

Chapter 785 Travelling through the chambers

Furrowing her brows, Shiro wanted to send out small scouts but with the walls being able to absorb mana, doing so was quite impossible so the best choice was still going to be exploring it manually.

"So which way shall we go?" Shiro asked as they sat down in the room for now. After defeating the boss, it seemed like the tiles had stopped working since it was no longer trying to kill them if they stood in the same place for more than 1 second.

"Hmm... we can try to go straight forward." Nan Tian said with a shrug since there wasn’t much they could do other than try every path until they got to the end.

"Mn seems reasonable. After that we can try going to the left and then the right." Stanley said as Shiro nodded her head.

After resting for a moment to regenerate all of their mana, the three stood up and pushed open the set of doors directly ahead of them.

Upon entering, they were attacked by tiny golems with more Zernic blades which was a bit annoying to deal with but thanks to Shiro being both the healer and the control mage, they were able to progress without having too much trouble.

Collecting around a hundred more of these blades, Shiro stored them away in her inventory since they could be rather helpful for the rest of the party if Helion reforges them into something else.

Similar to the last chamber, there was another golem with the same properties in this room but this time he seemed slightly faster and hit a bit harder. Discovering this upgrade, Shiro understood that they probably couldn’t use the same method of killing it in the later chambers so she decided to try her best at freezing it and shattering the pieces apart.

With Nan Tian’s magic, they were able to cause it to explode due to the sudden change in temperature. Unfortunately, the golem was still able to fight despite having a large chunk of itself completely blow off. But with the internal workings exposed, Stanley was able to use his magic to damage them all and cause fractures to spread out through the golems’ body, halting its movements for good.

This time, there were only two doors rather than three and they decided to take the left path. If this wasn’t the final chamber, they’ll try the right path before going back to the start and try out a different door.

After entering the chamber following the left door, they were surprised to discover a large open area with a large box in the centre.

Looking around the room with true sight, Shiro could see a single door in the distance as she guessed that it was probably the last chamber down this path.

Other than the door, the chamber had six supporting pillars with three on each side and seeing the grooves on these pillars, she could guess that blades will probably protrude from the surface if they got too close.

Narrowing her eyes at the box in the centre, she glanced at both Nan Tian and Stanley.

"Let’s proceed with care." Nan Tian said as Shiro agreed.

With Nan Tian in front, Shiro in the middle and Stanley at the back, the three approached the box.

*Krrrrrr

Hearing the sound of gears turning, the three quickly jumped back as the box started to unpack itself.

*BANG!!!

Slamming what seemed to be a tail against the ground, the three could feel the entire mountain shake from the impact.

Quickly creating two rail cannons by her side, Shiro pulled the trigger without hesitation.

But just as the shots were about to hit, two large wings unfurled themselves and blocked the shot.

Furrowing her brows, Shiro watched as several tier 6 magic circles surrounded the golem.

*KRRRR!!!!

Suddenly, several blades formed from light appeared and pierced towards the golem. But before they could pierce the armour, they were shattered apart in an instant.

*URAHHHHH!!!!!

Rearing its head back, a thunderous roar could be heard as the true appearance of the box was revealed.

With a humanoid upper body, a pair of dragon like wings and a serpent like lower body, they watched as orange lights could be seen flickering between the joints of this golem.

Quickly activating Analysis, Shiro scanned the golem’s body as she was quite surprised with how it’s constructed. It was highly reminiscent of some of her mechs that were in early development.

Furrowing her brows, Shiro didn’t know who created this but with the advantages that it had in this area, it was going to be a hard fight if she didn’t go all out.

"Remember when I said that I wanted to test out my Demi God form?" Shiro called out as the two nodded their heads.

"I think this is a good chance to give it a try. I just scanned the golem’s internal workings and I must say, it’s not looking too good." Shiro frowned.

"Are you sure? Your demi god form has a three day cooldown doesn’t it?" Nan Tian asked with worry since they had so many other bosses that they needed to fight if they’re not able to find the final chamber.

"True. We’ll see how it goes then." Shiro frowned as Nan Tian made sense. Using it now could be akin to using a rocket to kill a chicken.

But if things turn sour, she wouldn’t hesitate to use her skill.

Activating Silvanis’ fourth ability which boosts an element’s effectiveness and ignores all resistance, Shiro chose Error as the element.

Watching the circuits wrap around the blade, Shiro smiled before summoning her bow. Pulling back as hard as she could, she activated her Divine Raiment while both Nan Tian and Stanley charged at the golem to keep him busy.

Reinforcing their bodies, the two summoned their weapons and spells.

Suddenly, the golem flickered in front of them with speeds that shouldn’t even be possible.

Slamming his fists into them, the two were barely able to summon their barriers before they were launched into the walls.

*BANG BANG!!

Widening her eyes, Shiro couldn’t even glance towards them when the golem’s chest opened and energy surged in its body. Recognising it to be her mana which the golems had stolen before, Shiro immediately dropped her weapon and slammed her hand against the ground.

Suddenly, a wave of nanobots surged up and formed several walls.

*BANG!!!

Feeling the shockwave of the blast hitting the first part of her defence, Shiro gritted her teeth and focused on trying to contain the blast or rather deflect it back at the golem if possible.

However, the nanobots were being turned to ash upon contact so it was rather difficult.

Sensing that her defences were about to break, Shiro quickly flickered next to Nan Tian and Stanley. Grabbing their shoulders, she dived into the rift just as her wall of nanobots were pierced.

*BOOM!!!!!!!!!!!!

The explosion seared Shiro’s back just before the rift portal could fully close as she quickly activated three charges of Grace for each of them since that punch had removed 60% of Nan Tian’s health while Stanley was in a worse situation. With only 15% of his health left, his face was pale as Grace managed to bring him back from the brink of death.

"Yeah I’m going to use my skill here. We can’t hold back against someone like that." Shiro frowned as Nan Tian narrowed his eyes.

"I’ll use my berserk skills too."

"No, you need to save that for other bosses. If I can’t handle this one then you can use your berserk skill to help me." Shiro said as Nan Tian nodded his head.

"Let me enchant you first." Stanley took a deep breath and stabilised his mind. Unlike Shiro, he didn’t have a ridiculous pain tolerance so the initial impact had sent him into shock.

Once he was calm, he reached out towards her as several tier 6 magic circles wrapped around her body like runes and Shiro could see a buff that increased her Strength, Speed and Defence by 150% for 2 minutes.

"Thanks." Shiro said as the three of them jumped out the portal.

Activating her Pandora’s Requiem’s Fifth Ability on her Ascension skill, she upgraded it to the next tier as the name changed for her skill.
