Chapter 320 - Mage Goblin King
The second tower was identical to the first in terms of size and build, which was weird as even with modern architecture, it was hard to perfectly replicate a building, especially a large, tall and circular tower.
It made Adam wonder whether the floor and Goblin Beast City was orchestrated by the Dungeon System, or whether it was formed by the goblins independently as to Adam, it seemed almost impossible for the goblins to be able to form such a large castle and perfect towers.
His thoughts once again brought up the question of how the Dungeon System worked and what was its aim and limits, but he suppressed all of those thoughts and completely cleared his mind.
While walking over to the tower he had let his thoughts run wild and sorted them all out, but now that he was about to fight a powerful and dangerous Goblin King, he needed his mind to be clear and completely focused on his opponent.
Reactivating the Hunter's mind to its full capability, Adam continued climbing the stairs of the tower with his daggers and was ready to begin fighting.
His spiritual sense seemed to be blocked and suppressed to only reach the small area around him, which was weird and Adam also felt that it was harder to control his Internal Energy.
It was almost as if his mental control over energy, which was one of the most important and key elements of Internal Cultivation, was being dampened.
His physical body felt perfectly fine, but his mental control and affinity with energy was being disturbed along with all the other mental and spiritual aspects of Internal Cultivation.
"I didn't feel this while facing the Beast Goblin King, which means that I can assume that this is unique to this tower and because of that I can also assume that the owner of this tower is the Mage Goblin King," said Adam to himself with a slight smile.
His heart began to beat rapidly as he felt a rush of adrenaline and excitement, but his mind, face and body were calm as he continued walking up the stairs of the tower.
He was curious to see what the Mage Goblin King was capable of as so far from the other Mage Goblin Beasts that he had come across, they would all only have one capability that was linked to some sort of integrated weapon.
None of the Mage Goblin Beasts that he had come across seemed to be versatile or had abilities that didn't rely on items, but it seemed that maybe the Mage Goblin King was different and maybe he could learn few things from the beast.
Nearing the peak of the tower, Adam was calm and from what he had seen from the other Mage Goblin Beasts, he was expecting the Mage Goblin King to also be calm and collected and not suddenly attack Adam.
It was probably also very arrogant and confident, which was a trait that he found in the Mage Goblin Beasts before he showed his power and scared them, so he was planning to use that to his advantage.
Reaching the top of the tower, Adam was greeted by a large room that was surprising filled with unusual items and in the centre was a small and slim goblin beast.
It wasn't hunched over like the Goblin Beast Guards and stood up straight, while it also wore a silk robe that Adam would imagine a fantasy wizard would have worn.
Looking at Adam, the Mage Goblin King gave him a mocking look and believed that without the use of his Internal Energy, he would be easy to take down and defenceless.
Adam did use his Internal Energy a lot and most of his skills and abilities relied on Internal Energy, which was the more versatile type of energy that was stored within his body, but he was still capable without it.
His External Cultivation was just as high as his Internal Cultivation, and his Internal Cultivation wasn't completely useless, but was being disrupted and slowed.
"How are you disturbing my Internal Energy?" asked Adam, who wanted to see whether the Mage Goblin King could understand him.
If any beast was going to be able to understand him, it was going to be the Mage Goblin Beast that was most likely to be the most intelligent and understanding beast out of all the goblin beasts.
The Mage Goblin King began to laugh and it seemed to be able to understand him, but Adam didn't wait for the beast to answer and was hoping to strike it down swiftly before it was able to prepare himself.
Little did he know, the Mage Goblin King was able to observe his battle with the Beast Goblin King and had also been watching what he had been doing ever since.
After observing Adam's battle, the Mage Goblin King could see that the way Adam fought relied quite heavily on his skills and abilities that relied on his Internal Energy, which was why it used an Energy Dampening Array.
Adam's understanding and knowledge of arrays were too shallow for him to recognise the energy dampening effects that he was feeling as an array, but he had considered it as a possibility and was underestimating the capability and knowledge of the Mage Goblin King.
The Energy Dampening Array would make it harder to circulate, wield and control one's Internal Energy, but wouldn't and couldn't affect one's Internal Energy, which had been integrated into the physical body of the individual.
The muscles in Adam's legs tensed as the veins around them began to bulge.
Adam hadn't moved but with his great control had prepared his legs to suddenly launch him towards the Mage Goblin King and burst like a spring.
He would be underwhelmed if his sudden surprise attack against the Mage Goblin King was enough to take it down, but he couldn't think of any way that the Mage Goblin King, that didn't seem to have a powerful body, to block or avoid it.
