Tenku's face became serious when he saw a purple light fall from the magic circle, making the Mithril Golem go into a berserk state.
"The terrorists from the Ghost Nebula were quite troublesome. They have many ways to manipulate monsters." Tenku said in annoyance. He already had difficulty fighting one of the Mithril Golems without using his full strength. But now it had turned into a seventh-level monster. He didn't know how much the Mithril Golem's power had increased.
Tenku moved and appeared behind the Mithril Golem. He intended to use the same method as before to defeat the monster. When Tenku was about to swing his Phantasmal Object towards the Mithril Golem's waist, his face contorted as dozens of swords and spears appeared from the monster's back and rushed at him at lightning speed.
"It's dangerous!" Tenku quickly slashed his weapon to block the attack.
Clank! Clank! Clank!
Tenku couldn't block all of the monster's attacks, and several swords managed to tear his jacket. Luckily, he was pretty far away from the Mithril Golem. If too close, the sword and spear might have pierced his body.
"The monster's attacks became many times more sharp and fast." Tenku frowned when he saw his hand shaking after clashing with the monster's sword and spear.
After that, the Mithril Golem looked at him with bloodshot eyes because the monster felt Tenku was dangerous and had already set him as its target.
"I will try to attack him again in the same way." Tenku gripped his Phantasmal Object tightly as his figure suddenly disappeared from the spot.
The Mithril Golem became alert and looked around but couldn't find Tenku anywhere. Just as the monster was about to look in another direction, a voice suddenly sounded from the Mithril Golem's waist and echoed through the sky.
CLANK!
Tenku managed to land a clean hit on the Mithril Golem, but to his surprise, he couldn't even apply a single scratch on the monster's body.
"So hard!" Tenku immediately left the place after seeing dozens of spears pointed at him. He used Qi as a foothold in the air and quickly got away from the Mithril Golem.
"Not only its attack, but its defense has also increased dramatically. How can I penetrate that skin? Should I use my ultimate attack? If I do, I will run out of strength in this battle.
I still need a bit of power to fight low-level monsters. Moreover, their strength had increased after entering a berserk state from being touched by that purple light." Tenku pondered and thought of a way to efficiently kill Mithril Golems without using much of his strength.
But the Mithril Golem didn't allow Tenku to think. The monsters rushed towards him and made an earthquake in the area with every step.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
"Huh!?" Tenku was surprised when he saw the Mithril Golem approaching him and stretched out his palm.
"Tch!" Tenku clicked his tongue and quickly moved from his position to dodge the dozens of swords and spears that rained down on him.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The swords and spears shot swiftly, and their sharpness was terrifying. The Mithril Golem's attacks easily hollowed out the ground around the place and destroyed the surroundings.
Tenku's face darkened when he saw that. He was sure he would be seriously injured if he took the hit head-on, even though he had a strong physique and was wearing the combat gear of Wyvern scales.
While Tenku was blocking the raining swords and spears, a Mithril Golem suddenly appeared and stomped on him.
"Damn!" Tenku gritted his teeth and increased his speed.
Boooooooooooooooooooooooooooommmmmmmmmmmm!
Tenku managed to dodge the attack from the Mithril Golem and kept a reasonable distance from the monster. He didn't know how it had noticed him, but he couldn't allow the Mithril Golem to attack him again at close range. If that happens, Tenku will run out of strength first because he has to avoid and block the monster's attacks.
He couldn't continue to defend and dodge without counterattacking. But Tenku was confused about how to kill the monster quickly. He felt worried for Akina and the others after learning that the purple light could make monsters enter a berserk state.
Tenku knew they must be in a dangerous situation. He didn't want anything wrong to happen to them. Tenku must immediately finish the battle in that place and help Takaya and the others. He wanted to try using the Golden Revolver to attack the Mithril Golems, but he noticed that Setsuka and Kaede kept looking at him periodically. Tenku didn't want to take the risk and reveal his identity. He felt a headache at the thought of it.
"If the two girls hadn't come here, I could have fought more freely." Tenku sighed and shook his head. He felt it was pointless to think about that since the two girls were already trapped with him in that area.
"In that case, I can only use the same method but with a stronger attack." Tenku muttered and narrowed his eyes at the Mithril Golems destroying the surroundings to find him.
Tenku raced through the air until his figure blurred, and she silently appeared behind the monster. He compressed Genesis power and Qi into his Phantasmal Object and slashed it at the Mithril Golem's neck.
Sword of Demolition!
Slash!
Clank!
Tenku looked at the Mithril Golem's neck to check if its attacks had any effect and could injure the monster. He smiled after confirming that he had left quite a deep scratch on the Mithril Golem's skin. But then his face changed when he saw that the monster's head suddenly rotated one hundred and eighty degrees and shot dozens of mithril blades from its mouth.
"Huh!?" Tenku quickly swung his weapon to block the attack.
Clank! Clank! Clank!
Unfortunately, Tenku couldn't defend against the attack because he was too close to the Mithril Golem, and the blades shot so fast.
Tenku received cuts on his shoulder, thigh, and arm, but he didn't make the slightest sound of pain. He was used to the pain from practicing the Tyrant King Body Tempering Art. So the wound was nothing from him.
He moved behind the monster's head and injected much Genesis power into the Devourer Scythe. Afterward, he slashed toward the wound on the Mithril Golem's neck.
Sword of Demolition!
Clank!
The scratches on the Mithril Golem's neck deepened, and Tenku was confident he could kill the monster in the subsequent three attacks. But the Mithril Golem's head rotated again, returned to normal, transformed its hand into a spear, and stabbed it at Tenku.
Tenku slashed his Phantasmal Object, but he was blown away and vomiting blood from the impact. He has knocked back tens of meters and managed to land on the ground properly. Tenku tried to stabilize himself because he felt the blood within his body churning, and his internal organs shook from the attack of the Mithril Golem. Not long after that, he vomited blood again.
"I didn't expect that monster to be able to transform its body parts into weapons after it went into a berserk state. The Mithril Golem is much stronger than Fenrir when it is a Seventh-level monster." Tenku said in a deep voice, wiping the traces of blood on the corner of his lips.
"But no matter how strong that monster is, I must kill it quickly and help the Akina dan the others." Tenku's figure disappeared and reappeared right behind the Mithril Golem. The monster quickly changed its other hand into a sword and swung it towards Tenku. Unfortunately, what the Mithril Golem slashed was not him but an afterimage.
The real Tenku appeared on the monster's right and had already gathered his power into his Phantasmal Object. He had changed the shape of his weapon to a naginata because he wanted to do a different kind of attack. Tenku rotated his naginata at high speed like a drill, delivering consecutive thrusts toward the monster's neck.
Tyrannical Drill!
Dozens of gigantic drills of Qi manifestation bombarded the Mithril Golem's neck. Of course, Tenku also injects spear intent into his attack, making the damage even more terrifying.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The Mithril Golem lost its balance and almost fell because of Tenku's attack. The sword marks on the monster's neck had turned into several large, deep holes. The attack from the naginata was far more potent than the slash of the greatsword.
This time Tenku didn't keep his distance from the Mithril Golem after he attacked. He kept showering the monster with spear thrusts, and Tenku hit the same point on its neck with great accuracy.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The Mithril Golem got annoyed and fired dozens of spears at Tenku, but his figure disappeared again. Tenku reappeared under the monster's feet and jumped at top speed until he was level with the Mithril Golem's neck. He thrust his naginata and made the monster's wound even bigger. The Mithril Golem got angry and swung its spear and sword blindly but didn't hit Tenku.
On the other hand, Tenku moved at a terrifying speed and left several afterimages around the place to trick the Mithril Golems. While the monster was attacking that thing, Tenku quietly appeared behind it.
He turned his Phantasmal Object into a greatsword again and intended to cut the monster's throat to end the battle. But before he could slash it, the Mithril Golem suddenly turned around and swung its blade at him.
"What!?" Tenku was startled and slashed his great sword at the attack.
Clank!
The Mithril Golem and Tenku were both knocked back a few meters. Tenku landed on the ground and intended to launch another attack on the monster, but he was shocked when he saw the Mithril Golem shoot dozens of spears at high speed at him. He swung his sword to counter the attack. Unfortunately, Tenku couldn't block all of them and left one spear that shot toward his heart.
Tenku's face became solemn when he saw the spear. He felt he couldn't dodge or counter the attack from that close range. So Tenku could only block it with his body directly. He moved slightly to change the spear's trajectory to avoid hitting his vitals and injuring him badly. After that, the spear pierced the body, and blood spurted out.
