Rudra and Naomi went towards a tall white marble building that was a spitting image of the mage tower built in Purplehaze city.
The only changes were of there being many runic inscriptions on the towers surface , as if it was a much more sophisticated and complex version of the mage tower back home.
The tower had a huge crystal embedded on the very top , however Rudra could not identify the nature of that crystal at all.
It was pitch black in color , a stark contrast to the white marble mage tower with an extremely smoothly cut diamond shape . Rudra had no question in his mind , that regardless of what lied inside the tower the top crystal was going to be undoubtedly a rate treasure.
He walked into the tower alongside Naomi as the duo carefully inspected the ground floor.
Rudra was not proficienct in the language of the ancient race , hence could not decipher half the documents that he found on the ground floor of the tower , as the only texts he could remotely understand were the ones that were written using pictures.
Regardless of his understanding of the text Rudra started to toss everything into his inventory as he was not someone who would ever give up on valuable knowledge.
However the moment he stepped foot on the second floor , the tile where he placed his foot on suddenly revealed an ancient formation pattern , as the entire room saw runic lights suddenly being lit up.
” Intruder detection system ! “. Exclaimed Naomi as she became fully alert for all incoming dangers.
Apparently the ground floor of the mage tower was the reception that was accessible to everyone however first floor onwards only authorised personnel were allowed to go.
Hence without proper Authorization the security system would be alerted , deploying countermeasures to neutralize the invaders.
Two giant clay golems hence took form , as with purple eyes they strode towards the duo.
Rudra used the eyes of truth to inspect the golems .
[ Clay golemn ] ( mutated elite ) ( lv : 230) : the clay golemn is mutated after centuries of exposure to the death crystal. It is extremely dangerous.
Both golemns opened their mouths and shot two blasts of energy towards Rudra and Naomi who had to dive to avoid coming in the cross-hairs of the blast.
BAM! BAM!
Two energy beams hit the wall behind the duo , as to Naomi’s horror the wall showed a fist size hole , displaying the sheer power of the attack that melted stone as if it was butter.
However Naomi was not afraid at all , afterall hee boyfriend was one of the best players In Omega who would never let anything hurt her , as she cheered him on as he pushed back the two golems alone.
Rudra used the power of the wood necklace , as he manifested two wooden logs with spear tips to impale the faces of the clay golems.
This was the first time that Rudra was using the power of the necklace , hence he had no idea about how powerful it really was , however to his absolute delight the power was incredibly high.
The two golemns saw the wood pierce through their ball like heads as they passed through clean , dealing critical damage to their body structure.
Not stopping at that , Rudra attacked the legs next as he completely crippled the movement of the golems , before using the elven sword to finish them off.
From start to finish , Rudra only took 50 seconds to deal with the two golems and even he himself was impressed by his performance , as he realized that his combat prowess had increased by a significant margin with the addition of the wooden necklace to his arsenal.
Rudra realized that he must not die at any costs now to never loose this precious item , as with 0 mana consumption , the wooden necklace was a game breaking item.
However containing his excitement Rudra focused on the job at hand , as floor by floor he carefully searched the mage tower.
Thankfully , there were no more hidden traps and only rewards as Rudra found various useful items from the tower , however none more so than the Golem creation manual he found at the very last floor.
[ Clay Golem Creation Manual ] ( semi legendary) : create rank 3 clay golems with an extremely large HP pool to take the role of damage takers in your battle.
Made through mana clay and fuelled using high grade mana stones , this mamoth is a fuel machine that can be programmed to explode as a bomb upon death.
Note : Needs both mage and blacksmith to work together to produce this piece!
With over 2000 high grade mana stones being used to power only a single golem , the cost of operating a fleet of them was astronomically high.
For even the richest empires , operating more than 20 golems would be considered a waste of national resources and an expense that they could not bear . However the elites were an exception.
Being able to refine low grade mana stones into the purest grade through the purity chalice , the elites were the only force who could afford to create an entire fleet of golems!
A fleet that would undoubtedly become helpful in filling the deficit caused by limited numbers of tier 3 players in the guild, hence aiding the ultimate war effort.
” YES! “. Rudra screamed with elation as he gave Naomi a tight hug , as he finally found an item that could aid the elites in the coming war and affect the scale of the battle in a significant manner .
Except the manual Rudra had also found 2 ancient spell books and one ancient mage staff , items that were all sure to be extremely helpful for Medivh!
Hence in conclusion his trip to the mage tower could be considered an overall success. However with his eyes set on the crystal placed at the top , Rudra still decided to climb out of the top floor window as he climbed externally to cut a chunk of the massive crystal and take it home .
Little did he know , the crystal was called the crystal of death , a natural resource which just like the blue moon crystal was extinct from modern earth , as it had the power of shooting death rays after being refined into a weapon!
