Omega Summoner

Chapter 663 - Mt. Thunder Maze II

"Sirius will lead as he has sharper senses when it comes to danger. Saru will guard our back just in case something or someone attacks us. We do not know if we are the only ones that will be inside of the maze." Adrian stated as the group finally entered the maze with caution and vigilance.

"The good thing about this maze is that as long as you can keep going north then you are able to escape it. The only thing that makes this maze difficult are the moving Adamantium Lodestones." Peridot exclaimed as the sound of crashing Adamantium Lodestones echoed in the distance.

"Master, move to the right." Sirius stated as he could feel movement in the direction they are facing.

All of them moved to the right upon Sirius' instructions and an Adamantium Lodestone came flying down on them. At first, Saru wanted to lead as he is a guard for Peridot, and he is a little bit disappointed that he was not the one that is chosen to lead but he no longer feels that way.

Saru could only admit defeat as even he would not be able to sense a moving Adamantium lodestone that early as he could not trust his ears to give him the correct sound. The numerous crashing sounds of the Adamantium Lodestone in Mt. Thunder made him unable to sense anything via his hearing.

Sirius brilliantly led them the way until they reached a point where there is no movement for the Adamantium Lodestones. It could be called a safe zone as there should be a way for the players to rest up instead of dodging continuously. Saru almost got caught if not for Adrian's timely save of him by using Blink to change his location.

"Whoever made this place is definitely a sadist." Adrian commented as he knows that something like this could not be natural.

"I agree. I sometimes feel like the Adamantium Lodestones have grudges against us. It feels like those huge boulders have freaking homing capabilities." Peridot exclaimed.

"You should thank Dodu for absorbing the hit that you got. Dodu managed to absorb the physical aspect of the hit but the electric charge that hit you after almost killed you. You would have been dead by now if not for Dodu." Adrian stated as he summoned Dodu to be the third soulbound a while later.

"Thank you, Master Dodu for saving the Mistress." Saru stated as he bowed to the unknown blob in front of him. In truth, Saru is both intrigued and scared of Dodu because of its peculiarity.

Dodu extended his blobby body and made a cute little limb. Dodu them made a cute saluting action and jiggled a little to show its enthusiasm. After a few minutes of resting, the group moved again and arrived at another 'safe zone'.

The way to the next safe zone is not as easy as the first one. More and more Adamantium Lodestones are moving as they go closer to the exit. The group had to completely move on Sirius' instructions or else they would get hit.

The group thought that they would be the only ones there but a group of ten soldiers from the House of the Azure Dragon is actually there resting. The atmosphere in the safe zone suddenly got tense as the ones already there did not expect anyone other than soldiers from their house to be inside the mountain.

"Who are you and state your business!?" One of the soldiers stated as he did not want to easily offend the group that arrived as they had a Demonic Monkey Guard in their entourage.

"I am Saru of the House of Creation. This is my Mistress Peridot who is the successor of the house. We have come here for to mine a large lightning magic stone. We are not here to cause any trouble." Saru stated as he did not want a confrontation in a space like this.

"I can see that you are one of the Demonic Monkey guards but that does not explain the demon and his followers. You two may be free to pass but the demon must turn back or face our wrath." The leader of the soldiers stated as he looked at Adrian with bloodlust.

"How about this? You forget that we have been here and just mind your own business. And in the end, all of you will not have to experience being hit by an Adamantium Lodestone." Adrian stated but the soldiers all laughed at his remark.

Adrian knows why they are looking down on him. The soldiers of the House of the Azure Dragon that is in their area are all Level 190. The leader of the soldiers is even in the max level that is possible to enter this mountain. They believe that they could take on Adrian's group with ease.

"Let me tell you something that no one talks about that is related in Mt. Thunder. Inside of the maze, the rule of non-aggression that is set by the array master is not effective. Which means we could kill you for trespassing in an area claimed by the House of the Azure Dragon.

Soldiers, go into position and kill all of them. The inheritor of the House of Creation met her tragic end inside of Mt. Thunder because of her carelessness. The House of the Azure Dragon tried saving her, but it was too late." The leader of the soldiers stated as he already concocted a narrative that would appease the backlash that their house will receive.

Saru looked like he is about to burst out into anger as the fur on his whole body started to turn red. Peridot noticed this and calmed Saru down as he must not go berserk at a time like this because he might injure himself.

"A pity. You always give them the easy way out. In the end, it is their pride and self confidence that blind them from reality." Adrian stated.

"You talk a lot of trash demon! Now die!" The leader of the soldiers stated as they charged towards Adrian's group.
