Novel & Cerita Blood Golem

The wind howled violently, scratching at my throat until I felt an itch that seemed to make me want to cough. "Enough talking. Choose, or I'll let them both go." At Amber's signal, the men next to us hoisted both me and Tara up. The salty sea breeze hit me in the face, and the sharp smell of ocean water churned my stomach. However, nothing compared to the screaming in my ears. Before I could even draw a breath, Ethan had already made his choice. At that moment, everything went silent. Amber instinctively turned to look at me. My vision flickered and spots of black clouded my sight, but I did not know why.

He stands to leave. At the door, he pauses. "I will check on you later," he says over his shoulder. After he leaves, I move to the desk and pull the curtains open. A majestic view fills my sight. I see a massive ancient castle-like structure rising from the mountainside. It looks like a kingdom, or a prison. On the desk before me lies a document. Rules and Regulations for Maya Reynolds. I sigh. I open the first page. I have so many questions. And what the hell is a Bloodmoon Pack?

The tide turned in an instant, five against two becoming five against a dozen, and the Ghost saw it happen in real time. He didn’t panic. That was the unsettling part — no scramble, no fear, just a small, almost respectful nod, like a man conceding a hand of cards rather than fleeing a fight. “Reinforcements. Clever.” His pale eyes found mine one last time through the chaos. “You fight well together. Almost enough to make me reconsider. Almost.” Then he was moving, slipping through the study’s side door with the calm of someone who’d mapped his exit long before he’d ever walked in.

“Blood, Word, Breath. Break any and the stair erases your ascent.” Taren swallowed. “What happens if the stair erases us?” “You forget up,” the figure said, almost kindly. “Some prefer that.” They descended. ⸻ The chamber of Blood was small, round, plain. A bowl cut into the floor collected melt from the ceiling in slow, patient drops. A wafer of ice rested on a plinth beside it. Three channels had been carved there: two whole, one shallow. Kaelira’s wolf paced. Teeth and ritual, Ardyn said, unimpressed. Pick one.

Just when Goliath was to say that their attempt was a failure, the liquid wood reformed into small Golems. [Skeletor has learned Druidic Golemancy Lv 1] [Skeletor has created a Chaotic Golem!] The Chaotic Golem looked like a snake with dark purple scales. The purple gem stuck in the forehead of the animal, and the faint illusion of dice was visible on it. It coiled around Skeletor's feet, but he picked it up, letting it sleep surrounding his neck.

Looking at the group of a dozen golems, Kirou could only shake his head before releasing a sigh of resignation. Monster: Stone Mount Earth Golem Level: 13 HP: 8950 Skills: Rock Throw, Tremor, Earth Spire, Summon Help Looking at the skills of the golem monster caused Kirou to release a sigh before he put away his knife and started fighting with his bare hands. Since the damage to the golems' bodies won't get a critical modifier with his weapons, Kirou decided to not lower his weapons' durability by using it on such a sturdy body and just decided to beat it down with his bare hands.

I replied, "It's a long story. Remember the black dust the White Wizard used on you back at the North? Turns out we underestimated its effects on you. Thanks to the ritual performed by this witch doctor, everything will be okay now, and your strength will return even greater than before." "Is that so?" Golem inquired, his voice weak. I nodded in response, saying, "Yes, my love. All that is left is for you to drink some of this blood here." Receiving the calabash from the witch doctor, I passed it over to Golem, saying, "Here you go, have some." He took a quick gulp of the blood, and with a mouth still tainted with the crimson liquid, he asked, "Whose blood is this, by the way?"

We finally have an elder on our side and she can perhaps combat with the warlock magically. "And I can't think straight with this throbbing head and bleeding body." I bobbed my head and bit a chunk of my hand before filling a wine glass with the droplets of my blood. The blood of vampires can help heal up all kinds of wounds on any supernatural species and fragile humans. Bastiana accepted the glass and drank my blood with a gulp while her face mirrored disgust. Her scars began healing and her cuts closed back till her skin was as good as new.

They looked a bit different from a human’s bones, albeit the structure looks almost the same. “You guys are lucky that you sold the golem now. The golem hunting season is already up, but because they couldn’t fill up the quota, the price for the golems skyrocket, you see.” Kiza said, with the exact same info as what Elfina said a few days ago, and took out a medium sized pouch. “The dismantling fee is 70 silvers. And the total price that you get from this golem is 15 gold. The price increased by a lot because of its unscathed hide." Kiza informed, and handed me the pouch.
