Chapter 282 [Bonus chapter] Final Boss: Blood Goliath

‘Ding,

The host’s sentient undead summon received two rewards from a powerful existence.

‘Ding,

Awakening the Blood Devil Goliath’s Bloodline in the host’s body. Partially awakened.

‘Ding,

A new cultivation technique has been added to the host’s [Cultivator’s Interface].

As Leo was waiting for the Undead Goliath to inform him what rewards he gained from the Blood Devil Goliath, he received a series of system notifications.

‘What?’

Leo was shocked by the system notifications that appeared and muttered, ‘I will get rewards received by my undead summons?’

It was the first time that such a thing had happened. So, of course, he was surprised.

Nevertheless, he was excited about getting his first bloodline. What’s more, he even received a new cultivation technique.

‘Ding,

Bloodline Name: Blood Devil Goliath’s Bloodline.

Status: Partially awakened.

Effect: Upon activation, the user’s strength temporarily increases by five times for five minutes.

Cooldown: One hour.

Note: 1) The bloodline can be activated only when it is fully awakened.

2) No talents or skills can be used when this bloodline is activated.

‘What? It’s increased my strength by five times?’

It was Leo’s first time seeing the effect of the bloodline. Hence, he was surprised that it could increase his strength by five times.

‘Even though five minutes is less, I would kill a high-ranked opponent within that time with my Silver Sword or the Battle-axe.’

He could not use the talents or skills; however, he could use the weapons and their skills without any problem since they were external boosts for a Hero or a Cultivator.

‘I wonder how I can completely awaken my bloodline?’

Since it was only awakened partially, Leo could not activate the bloodline. Therefore, he wondered about how to activate it.

He was hoping for the system to answer his question; however, it remained silent, which only meant one thing: The system wanted the host to find a way to awaken his bloodline on his own fully.

‘Let’s see how long it will take for me to awaken the bloodline fully.’

Leo stopped thinking much about the bloodline and looked at the cultivation technique.

‘It is not meant for humans. So, there is no need to waste my time on it.’

The cultivation technique was specially made for the Devil Goliaths, and even though Gredor was not a Devil Goliath, he could cultivate it since he belongs to the Goliath Race.

…..

In the Goliath Tower,

<By the way, I have sealed your bloodline, which won’t be awakened until you leave the Goliath Tower. You have to rely on your strength to clear the halls on the second floor of my Goliath Tower>

The Blood Devil Goliath informed the Undead Goliath, who nodded in understanding.

<I…want….rest>

Even though the Undead Goliath didn’t spend much energy using the skills, he broke his jaws to get his teeth to attack the golden armoured Devil Goliath.

Therefore, he requested a break to stabilize his injury before challenging the second floor.

<I forget>

Hearing the Undead Goliath’s words, the remnant spirit remembered something and snapped his fingers.

‘Swiish’

In the next second, the broken jaws of the Undead Goliath were magically healed.

<It is the basic reward given to the challenge upon successful completion of the challenge>

The Blood Devil Goliath revealed a slight smile and asked,

<Now, do you want to challenge the second floor or take a break?>

“I will…..challenge.”

Since he was back to his peak strength, the Undead Goliath didn’t bother to take a break and replied that he would continue challenging the second floor.

<Defeat him within 100 breaths>

While pointing at a bronze-skinned Devil Goliath in the distance, the Blood Goliath informs the hall clearance condition before disappearing.

“Why do you look like that?”

The Bronze Devil Goliath slowly walked close to the Undead Goliath and scoffed at him.

“I am a level 1 supreme-ranked Bronze Devil Goliath, you can’t…”

[Enchanced Arms]

‘Boom’

Before the Bronze Devil Goliath could finish his words, the Undead Goliath sent him to the ground.

[Rapid Punch]

Since the other party was a supreme-ranked being, the Undead Goliath knew one punch was not enough to kill him.

Hence, he used his skills back to back and killed the Bronze Devil Goliath in a few minutes.

<Congratulations on clearing the first hall. The second hall and the third hall are the same. Defeat the opponents within 50 breaths>

Even though Blood Goliath was shocked, he didn’t say anything and intentionally increased the difficulty for the next two halls.

However, without any surprise, the Undead Goliath defeated the Silver Devil Goliath and the Gold Devil Goliath in the second and third halls, just like how he defeated the Bronze Devil Goliath.

“Attack….is….the….best….defence.”

This was what the Undead Goliath followed.

<Congratuations on successfully clearing the second floor. For the time being, I will hold your reward>

The Blood Goliath appeared out of nowhere and replenished the Undead Goliath’s energy.

The Undead Goliath’s performance was completely out of his expectations, and he didn’t know what to reward him.

Therefore, he decided to wait and see whether the Undead Goliath could clear the final hall or not.

<If he can clear it, my mission will be completed>

The Blood Devil Goliath felt that the Undead Goliath had a very high chance of clearing the third floor.

Hence, he decided to give all the rewards to the Undead Goliath if he cleared the Goliath Tower.

<It’s been 100 years since someone entered my Sacred Ground, and I don’t know when I will get another participant to my Sacred Ground. I think I have to tweak the difficulty of the final fight a little and help him get my inheritance.>

Of course, the Undead Goliath didn’t know what the Blood Goliath was thinking and prepared for the last hall on the last floor of the Goliath Tower.

<There is no time limit in defeating him. I hope you can clear this hall>

After finishing his words, the Blood Devil Goliath disappeared from the hall just like always.

“Blood….Devil….Goliath?”

After the remnant spirit disappeared, the Undead Goliath looked at his opponent and muttered to himself.

That’s right! The final boss of the Goliath Tower was none other than the Blood Devil Goliath himself.

[Blood Clones]

The Blood Goliath bit his finger, and from each blood drop, he summoned a blood clone that looked just like him.

In total, he used ten blood drops and created ten 10-meter Blood Goliaths who rushed toward the Undead Goliath.

[Gigantization]

The Undead Goliath was calm and used his skill to become a 50-meter tall giant and killed the ten blood clones that rushed toward him.

‘Swoosh’

However, all the blood clones had the strength of a level 1 supreme-ranked hero; therefore, they easily dodged his attacks.

“Retreat”

The Blood Goliath ordered his clones to retreat before activating his other talent [Blood Clones Merging]

Soon, the 10 Blood Clones merged into the Blood Goliath and became a single entity that was around 100 meters, which was double the size of the Undead Goliath.

‘Puchi’

The Undead Goliath was a toddler in front of the Blood Goliath. So it was easy for the Blood Goliath to kick into the distance.

<Damn it…I have set the last floor difficulty very high for rank 9 Goliaths to defeat>

The remnant spirit cursed himself for setting very high standards for his inheritor.

<It looks like I will be dissipating without an inheritor>

The remnant spirit didn’t have the power to help the undead Goliath anymore because he had already helped whatever he could.

He had decreased the strength of the final boss from level 5 to level 1 supreme being; however, it was still very high for a rank 9 Goliath like Gredor.

If the Blood Goliath were a normal level 1 supreme-ranked being, the Undead Goliath would have easily defeated; however, the Blood Goliath was not normal.

He belongs to the highest class in the Goliath race, much above the Golden Devil Goliath. Therefore, it would be impossible for Gredor to defeat him.

<Even though he had two bloodlines, according to the rules, I can’t help him awaken them until he leaves the Goliath Tower. What did I think when I set such damned rules?>

The remnant spirit cursed himself and thought,

<I hope a miracle appears and he breaks through to the supreme rank>

….

‘Master….help…me.’

The Undead Goliath looked at the huge Blood Goliath in the distance as his eyes turned red as he asked Leo for help.

He was unwilling to give up because his master ordered him to clear the tower at any cost, and he had to complete it.

‘Stronger…I….want….to…become…stronger.’
