409 Chapter 409

As amazed as Simon was, he found it unnecessary to meddle in the affairs of his subordinates. He believed that the Bloodthorn demonic warhorse would be able to solve it without any skirmish. That being the case, it was time for him to show the intruder what they were up against.

"So you are the Master of this dungeon? the one who killed my brother?" Boris who was trying to restrain himself, finally couldn't hold himself and spoke out loud.

Hearing his words, the first reaction that Simon had was tilting his head in confusion. What was the other party going on about, when did he ever kill somebody's brother? In the first place, he did not even know the other party.

,m Ignoring the words of Boris, Morgress stepped forward and spoke on behalf of everyone "I assume you are the Demon Noble, the Master of this dungeon?".

"Indeed it is me" Simon acknowledge placing his gaze on the man who clearly emitted an aura stronger than anyone.

"Good, then I will not beat around the bush. I know that you are hiding the forest Spring Spirits inside your dungeon don't try to deny it, those five behind you are already proof enough. They are the property of our guild which you have forcibly taken, it will be better for you to surrender them before its too late or else…" at the end of his sentence, Morgress flashed a mocking smile.

Simon was unfazed by those words, he looked towards the Five Forest Spring Spirits and gave them a comforting smile to relieve their worries.

"Or else what…?" Simon asked entertained by the choice of words of his guests.

Morgress shrugged his shoulder and said nonchalantly "Or else we will simply have to take them back with force. If we do waste our effort on that, we not only stop at the forest Spring Spirits but even take those beauties from your side and conquer the dungeon while we are at it".

Everyone present on the mountaintop starting from the Valkyries to the forest Spring spirits and the Lightning draconic serpent were infuriated by that comment. Even Irene who always had a calm and cool atmosphere about her, was showing signs of silent fury as her body was starting to release a terrible amount of cold aura.

Perhaps it was only Simon and the Bloodthorn Demonic Warhorse he was riding that remained unaffected. The latter was so simply because of his loyalty towards the former and being his steed it also carried the dignity and honour of its master. Thus it had to remain calm and collective no matter how infuriated it felt inside.

Simon on the other hand simply found the comment amusing, he was treating the person who said it as a child, na?ve and ignorant.

"Hehe, really now, people are starting to take me and my dungeon lightly. As the master of this place I can't just sit around and let that happen can I?" Simon flashed a wicked smile that was very much so like the race that he belonged to.

However, if just words were enough to daunt Morgress and this elite group, they wouldn't be able to reach this floor in the first place.

"You say some truly amusing stuff demon. It is true that you have two calamity class subordinates under you but so what? If you think that this is enough to stop us, then you are sorely mistaken. Haha, it is still not too late for you to beg for mercy and surrender to us. Perhaps once we are done enjoying ourselves with those beauties around you, we might just leave you with the dungeon"

Morgress said evoking a burst of laughter from the humans around him. Finally, there was some changes in the eyes of Simon, his crimson eyes that up until now found it all amusing, had an aura of seriousness to them.

He was not the previous him who could tolerate being underestimated like that. Simon opened his hands wide and declared.

"When did I ever show the true extent of the might of my dungeon to you all? This is my dungeon and I make the rule, you are not just fighting against us, but all of us… [Wisp send all of them here]".

The moment Simon declared that, the teleportation gate started acting up once again and lit up with a brilliant light. In front of the astonished eyes of everyone, beings that had a humanoid appearance, started pouring out of it.

"W-what?!!" Morgress who had a mocking smile plastered on his face all this time felt it crumbling down right this instant. He was so shocked by the things that were happening right in front of his eyes that he had difficulty believing.

That's right, in front of hi stupified eyes, out of that peculiar construct dozens no hundreds and even more of what seemed like golems made of metals were pouring out of it.

As someone who had reached this floor after tackling all the other floors, they knew how powerful each of these golems were. Not to mention how annoying each one was to face. And at this moment in front of their very eyes there were hundreds no thousands of them assembled on the mountain.

How could this not shock the living daylights out of anyone? Given that they were all elite, one or two or even a couple of them might not be a problem for them to face each individually. However, that number was clearly just too ridiculous.

It was like they were facing against a small army of golems made out of technology even unknown to them.

The advent of the Andromedas coming out of the teleportation gate, was enough to wipe that condescending smile off the face of these humans who thought they had everything in their hands already. And an expression of disbelief and even fear could be sensed from them.

Although Simon did not want to admit it, he really did feel good seeing their faltering confidence and feeling their fear. He was enjoying it so much that, it was almost like these feelings were being fed to him and it tasted like a delicacy that one couldn't get fed up off.

But this was just the beginning, he was going to savour it till the last bit.

Seeing that expression of Simon, Irene couldn't help smilingly comment "You really like to make a grand entrance don't you?".

With how he appeared activating his [Demonic eyes] skill and riding on top of his warhorse and even bringing along thousands of those Andromedas from the [Workshop], there was no way to convince her otherwise.

"I had to implant this feeling of fear within them or else they would start running rampant thinking the dungeon was too easy to conquer" Simon willingly admitted.

There was no way he going to allow them to do that. He needed to be a factor of fear and what better way other than bringing an army with him. Now then, it was time he showed these adventurers who dared to covet the things that are his, their place.

He lifted his hand and pointed his index finger towards the humans who no longer had their previous carefree attitude and made the same mocking smile they had towards them.

"Attack!!" with those simple words, the thousands of Andromedas started making mechanical noises and their eyes locked onto the fifteen humans down below.

Whoosh… Whoosh… Whoosh… like missiles being launched, these Andromedas activated their jet boosters and jumped down towards the base of the mountain.

Morgress already had an ugly expression but it distorted even more when he saw the army of golems being given the command to attack them.

"Get into formation, even if they outnumber us greatly, they are still no match for us. We just need to conserve on till we cull down their numbers" Having no other choice the former guild master of the seven swords decided to engage the enemy and quickly shouted out orders.

Even if these people were suddenly fazed by the numbers of their enemy, they were still an elite group of humans with levels above 400 and years of experience under them. Thus, they quickly regained their composure and got into formation.

So what if their numbers were far beyond them, they who had fought against these golems before, knew how to handle them. They believed that they wouldn't be defeated simply by the numbers of their enemies.

Thus when the Adromedas descended down, a chaotic battle started that would decide who would survive till the end. Whether it would be the cold and unfeeling golems or would it be them who are individually far stronger than the golems.

When the battle started, it seemed like the humans had a clear advantage, they knew how to coordinate and attack and retreat together thus pushing the golems back.

However, things did not go as it was supposed to, the golems that could adapt to their enemies and learn continuously through the shared information network of theirs.

Soon they started spotting the faults and problems with the formation of the humans and targeted that specific areas. Thus rendering their formation useless after some time.

With the collapse of their formation, the humans started spreading out thus giving the golems even more room to attack them. Although individually they were no match for the humans who were all above level 400 and could destroy them after a few moves, every little damage and the energy that they made them spent chipped away at the adventurer's strength.

Humans were after all not machines and only had a limited amount of mana and stamina. Their stats made them powerful; however, they still needed time to rest and recover their energy.
