nDenise’s mastery over Golem Creations was truly unprecedented. After all, he knew that Denise didn’t study in a formal school. Instead, she was an assistant to a famous Dark Alchemist of the Dark Arts Faction.

nShe wasn’t even fully learning the Golem Arts at that time. Instead, she just fully studied this craft within this Castle… During that time, she absorbed all the knowledge in the books in the library and learned from him and from the Immortals, who had some knowledge about the Golems.

nAlthough Vale had also assisted Denise through some mysterious method, she shouldn’t be able to reach this level in just six years!

nAt this time, he could safely say that her knowledge about making golems had already surpassed him. To be exact, not even the Elders of those in the Mystic Arts Faction and Alchemy Arts Faction could probably surpass her in this field.

nDenise was simply a genius…

n“What a beautiful creation…” He commented at the same of the golem at the center of the hall.

nThe metal golem’s eyes glowed with light energy, casting a sense of holiness around it. Its limbs were sleek and powerful, crafted from a mysterious alloy that shimmered like quicksilver in the dim light.

nIt wasn’t moving right now, but he could see the dense energy on each of them, and he could tell how strong they were.

n‘Wait, is that a rune?’ Magnus was shocked once again as he looked at it carefully. After a few moments, he noticed more than 20 Runes on the metal golem!

nFirst of all, Denise shouldn’t be capable of placing rune. In normal cases, she would ask him to place runes in areas she wanted…

nThis time, however, he could recall that Denise had never called her to arrange those runes.

n‘Did he ask Faith or Pearl to place that?’ Magnus thought to himself.

nHowever, there was also an issue with that. After all, golems that Denise had made could at most sustain 6 Runes. That was already her Elite Androids.

nShe also had Normal Androids that only had 3 Runes on them.

nIt wasn’t because she was being stingy but because the materials would normally break if the number of Runes was too much.

nThe materials for Normal Androids were cheap and would only cost about 8,000 zen each. If not for the expensive materials to make Arcane Circles and its core, the metals, and various parts would only cost about 800 zen at most.

nAs for the Elite Androids, they should cost about 30,000 zen each, so there were only a few of them.

nAs for the one in the middle of the room, Magnus believed that Denise spent a huge sum of money to acquire materials that could compare with high-grade Royal Rank items. Thud… Thud…

nDenise, with her black and white hair cascading around her like a cloak of shadows, approached Magnus with a confident smile.

n“Magnus, I’m glad you could make it. Allow me to introduce my latest creation – the Apex Guardian,” she said, gesturing towards the towering figure before them.

nIt seemed that she had just finished her creation and was about to call for him.

n“Apex Guardian?” Magnus repeated as he believed that this name suited the metal golem a lot. He believed that even if an Immortal came, it would be able to hold out itself.

nThen, as if it heard its name being called, the golem started moving.

nThe Apex Guardian gently turned its gaze towards Magnus, its eyes locking with his in a silent exchange of recognition. It was as if it was trying to identify Magnus, whether he was a friend or foe.

n“This creation is amazing… How did you make this thing? Right, those Runes, how did you place them… I can sense at least 20 Runes on it. You must’ve used incredible materials to make them. Lastly, who made those Runes? I didn’t hear any Rune Expert visiting our Castle in the past few months.” Magnus muttered.

nAlthough there were several Runecasters who had visited their Castle to get closer to the Shadow Immortal, they didn’t stay in this Castle for long. They certainly offered their assistance if there were matters that required their expertise, but he couldn’t recall Denise asking for such assistance. ƒreewebηoveℓ.com

n“You’re right. I made a total of 25 Runes on this Automaton… However, 10 of them are similar Runes. They were Protection Runes that Vale taught me. I also managed to place so many of them thanks to the materials I got from him and the trick he taught me.”

n“Trick?” Magnus felt curious. He had also learned Rune Arts, after all.

n“Yes… It’s called Rune Simplification… It took me years to reach an Advanced level of this Spell, so I only managed to complete this golem today.” Denise explained with a smile. She was certainly proud of her creations.

nMagnus could only admire Denise’s dedication to this. Those two Spells she mentioned were something he already knew about. However, learning them wasn’t easy, especially since she was already a Dark Arts Practitioner.

nIn short, she must’ve also received the Immortal Blood or even more. This Immortal Blood should’ve allowed her to improve her physique to the point that she could learn another branch or two of Arcane Arts.

nThen, as he observed the golem, she immediately guessed the materials that were used. Dimensional Creature’s bones… Demon Saint’s horns… Enchanted Steel of the True Immortals and several metals that came from the mausoleum!

n‘Right… Those metals could suppress the energy of the Demon Saints and the True Immortals…’ Magnus could only sigh as he realized that this Apex Guardian was probably a priceless treasure. It was something that was on par with or even greater than Sovereign Artifacts!

nAs Magnus marveled at Denise’s creation, he knew that the Apex Guardian needed to be tested soon!

n“This is great, Denise… How are you planning to use this golem?” He asked.

nDenise smiled…

n“What else? Of course, to destroy that Death God who’s trying to claim Vale’s body.”
