Chapter 888 - Chaos Spring Exploration VIII

The Guardian of the Dawn Dusk Spring is different from the other golems before it as it was vastly smaller. It also fired beams made of condensed dark energy that afflicted those hit with curses. Adrian was hit by one beam of dark elemental energy as well, but he resisted the status effect due to his Asmodian blood.

Sirius is also hit with some curses, but he resisted some of them. Saena absorbed the curses that afflicted the rest of the team since the curses do not have an ending duration. Rather, the ending duration of said curses will only end if they are dispelled or the golem is defeated.

Adrian did not notice it immediately, but the Guardian of the Dawn Dusk Spring seemed to have a face on the crescent moon. If a small amount of light illuminated the creepy face, a spine-tingling look can be seen.

"Let us attack!" Adrian suggested as he summoned his Primordial Armament: Bow once again as it was only cancelled earlier.

Sirius did not relent on his attacks, but the golem seems to be slightly resistant to his attacks. The golem is also unaffected by the shadows that Sirius commands. The shadows get repelled when Sirius commands it to restrain the Guardian of the Dawn Dusk Spring.

The two giants, Tino and Tina, did not become shy and used their new skill. They activated Sun Armor and became lit by a pale orange and red flame. The two then charged towards the Guardian of the Dawn Dusk Spring as Adrian provided cover fire against the beams of dark elemental energy.

Adrian would accurately hit the beam of dark elemental energy aimed at the twin giants so that they will not get hurt or cursed on their way. The Guardian of the Dawn Dusk Spring also did not even bother to dodge and just fired its beam attacks towards everyone in the area. It is also highly resistant to physical damage seeing that its health only dropped to 89% despite being continuously attacked by Sirius.

"Saena is almost full as she can no longer absorb the curses. She cannot even use them against her opponents because they are not alive. The curses that she absorbed are meant for living beings." Adrian thought as he considered his options.

If Saena could no longer bear the curses in her stomach, then she will get damaged instead. Fortunately, Adrian saw a silver lining when he noticed that the Guardian of the Dawn Dusk Spring evaded when Tina's dagger was about to hit it. He verified that the golem is indeed evading the giants when Tino almost hit the golem from behind.

Adrian's magical arrows barely do any damage on the body of the Guardian of the Dawn Dusk Spring as it seems to also have high magic resistance. What is interesting is the fact that it evades the two giants to the point that it will not attack. The golem lets Sirius attack it, but it does not let any of the twin giants to even hit it.

Adrian found a plausible answer to the Guardian of the Dawn Dusk Spring's behavior as he saw that the dark elemental beams aimed at the twin giants are disintegrated before hitting their body. The fire surrounding then definitely has special properties that does not allow the dark element to even hit them.

The battle lasted for ten minutes, and Adrian once again noticed that the sky changed. The dark sky became illuminated by sunlight which expelled the darkness. The two giants power rose as the sun is also their source of power. Their stats rose to about 15% more when sunlight touched their skin.

'Champion Equinox! The golem! Something is happening to it!" Tino shouted as the Guardian of the Dawn Dusk Spring suddenly spun.

After two seconds of spinning blades suddenly came out of the sides of the Guardian of the Dawn Dusk Spring. The previous appearance of a moon soon changes to that of a sun with a smiling face. The golem changed appearance and even changed the attributes it released.

Beams of white light could be seen being fired by every golden ray that it has on its side. Sirius is even slower compared to the beam of light that he got damaged by ten light beams. The chain that was connected to the Guardian of the Dawn Dusk Spring that Charon connected is also broken.

The beams of light also damaged the twin giants but heavily damage Charon to the point that Adrian needed to recall him. Saena tried afflicting the Guardian of the Dawn Dusk Spring with the curses that she inhaled but it was ineffective. Adrian just needed her to expel the curses as she will be unbale to heal them if she held on.

The twin giants are also hurt by the beams of light, but the most notable difference is that the golem no longer cowered from them. It received the hits of the twin giants, but it now evaded a different opponent. The Guardian of the Dawn Dusk Spring is now evading Sirius' shadow attacks as if it is afraid of them.

Adrian wanted to test something and immediately recalled his bow. He replaced his current weapon with the scythe and activated Shadow Walker. Adrian vanished from existence as he is now in the shadow world. He went really close to the Guardian of the Dawn Dusk Spring and executed a powerful slice.

The Guardian of the Dawn Dusk Spring did not have the ability to detect Adrian's presence.  It also had a large cut on its back as a result of Adrian's attack but the one shocked is Adrian himself. He managed to greatly deal damage to the golem to the point that it froze from the sudden damage.

[You have dealt catastrophic damage to the Guardian of the Dawn Dusk Spring.]

Catastrophic is indeed the word as Adrian erased 50% of the Guardian of the Dawn Dusk Spring's health wit one swing. He knew that his attack might be empowered but it should not be this powerful.

"Its attribute is now different."
