Eldritch Creature's Guide-Chapter 150 Closer To Origin

When the danger of being brought down by the hordes of Bronze-Tier Undeads presented itself, the Paladin Squire in his last attempt to save his life, erupted in a wave of Silverish Holy Flame, which started burning apart all Samiel's Undeads in the vicinity.

Samiel observed how the Silverish Holy Flame burned his Undeads, and those who were closest in the vicinity to him, they were already burned to ash, as nothing remained from the once strong Bronze-Tier Undeads.

The only thing positive about the entire thing was the fact that their equipment, armors and weapons were relatively okey. Clearly, the dwarvish quality of the equipment proved itself to withstand even the Holy Flame that the Paladin Squire of the Silver Crusade cast.

Though Samiel knew that the flame which was cast by the Paladin Squire was not the hottest or most destructive one, it was mainly aimed at the destruction of the Undeads, meaning its primary purpose was purification. Of course, this also took a heavy toll on the Paladin Squire because the more of the Holy Flames he generated, the more tired he became, to the point where his defenses started to falter and both Samiel and Dharzug instantly exploited this.

Samiel immediately cast one overpowered 3rd Level Spell of the Void Magic Tree, Void Strike, which directly hit the Paladin Squire of the Silver Crusade at his back, causing him to lose control over his Holy Flames as they dispersed and he coughed a huge mouthful of blood.

While at the same time, Dharzug slashed with his waraxe, which cleaved deep inside the Paladin's shoulder, cracking his armor, as another Void Strike landed on the man's head, which caused it to explode like a watermelon.

Dharzug just kicked the headless corpse away as the fight was concluded and everything was done; everyone was killed and properly dead, as Samiel went down from his hiding space, as he deactivated the wards for now, as looked at the corpses around him. Subsequently, he stored all of them in his Dimensional Ring, all for one, which was the corpse of the Paladin Squire from the Most Holy Paladin Order of the Silver Crusade of Divine Light, contemplating about the corpse.

While, indeed, the corpse was laced with the Divine Power of the God, who was very powerful, but Samiel sensed that this could be an interesting opportunity, as he caught the soul of the Paladin Squire while he studied it for a short time.

In the end, he stuffed the soul of the Paladin Squire of the Silver Crusade into his mouth as he chewed on the soul, as he felt that his very own being was greedily digesting the remaining Divine Power of the God of Light that was in the body of the Paladin Squire.

Even though the amount of it was absolutely abysmal, like nothing at all, Samiel was still able to tell that he was getting stronger and stronger; soon enough, he heard the notification from the Akashic Records as a translucent window appeared before his eyes.

[User Samiel Zentaur has reached Level 36.]

Soon enough, Samiel reached Level 36 from Level 35, as he felt that his power once again increased tremendously; he was again feeling stronger than before. But suddenly, he felt something weird in his body, as his blood started boiling and reacting with God of Light's Divine Power.

Samiel realized that something was happening, something which he didn't really understand, and something that could end either way, but he silently started praying to the Azathoth as he recited the chants from the Gospel of the Kadaht, all over again, as the blood boiled in his body, and Samiel's Eldritch Bloodline which contained the Holy Blood of the Primordial Demiurge itself violently lashed out at the Divine Power of God of Light.

He felt the fierce combat taking place in his body as the Divine Power of God of Light resisted fiercely, but soon enough, his Eldritch Blooldine stopped playing around and unleashed itself fully on the Divine Power of God of Light, as it started devouring it at tremendous speed like a hungry Ogre.

Several minutes later, the fight inside Samiel's body subsided, as the entire Divine Power of God of Light was completely devoured until nothing remained, as Samiel now felt very weird. He knew few things for certain; for one, he was aware that he had evolved once again closer to the Eldritch Origin.

While his Level increased only once, Samiel could sense that he got stronger, way stronger, and realized that if he reached Level 51 and officially became Silver-Tier Professional, then he would be able to defeat Dharzug easily.

For third, he noticed one his Mana changed a little or a lot, depending on the point of view. Samiel recognized what had changed in his Mana and it was that he obtained a new Mana Attribute because right now, his Mana seemed a little bit "Holy".

[User Samiel Zentaur has evolved.]

[User Samiel Zentaur has gained a new Mana Attribute, Outer Holiness.]

Samiel read the notification from the Akashic Records with wide eyes, still in the process of comprehending the fact that he obtained additional Mana Attribute from just devouring the Divine Power of God of Light, which was done by his Eldritch Bloodline.

Outer Holiness was not like the average Holy Element, which as giving out that weird calming feeling, yet it was immensely majestic and stood above everything and everyone else. No, the Outer Holiness, while having the aspect of being immensely majestic and all of that stuff, it would cause most people with weak willpower to go mad when they were just being exposed to it for mere seconds.

That was the reason why normal people, or even mighty Professionals, couldn't look at the face of Outer Gods or any Eldritch Entities in general, because most commonly, they would be exposed to the Outer Holiness, which didn't end well for them in all cases. So if the entities who possessed the Outer Holiness didn't really control it, all people with weak willpower would go mad in a very, like, very short time. 𝗳𝐫𝘦e𝘸𝗲𝚋𝓃𝚘v𝘦𝘭.𝑐𝒐m

Fortunately, Samiel was not that strong enough to cause such a wide effect, though if he went to some Mana-Less World right now, then his mere presence would cause people to go insane. The unawakened people or those with no contact with Mana would have solely depended on their willpower alone, while those who came into contact with Mana could at least passively depend on their power to protect them.

"Interesting."

Samiel muttered because aside from that, he noticed that the tips of his hair reverted to being white, giving him a unique visage and together with that, his golden eyes started shining. Like literarily shining, occurrences like that were rare and often signified that the person had extremely powerful, dense and potent Mana.

After that, he stored the corpse of the Paladin Squire into his Dimensional Ring because he planned to use this corpse to strengthen Ashimer. He planned to incorporate some parts of it into his first Higher Undead, mainly because he hoped that Ashimer would obtain some sort of resistance against Holy Element and Light Element; if nothing, the Light Element would suffice on its own.

Even that would be a tremendous advantage for his Undead General because he could fight those like Priests, Clerics, Paladins, Holy Knights and others who dabbled into the ways of the Holy, worshipped Gods or Magicians using Light Attributed Spells, which were the bane of Undeads.

Meanwhile, Samiel was contemplating about his gains from this endeavor and how to gain even more from it; the Orkish Champion of the Green Gods was sitting on the ground as he gulped several potions to speed up his regeneration.

While the Orks were famous for their regenerative capabilities, from the current fight, he would need at least a few hours to be combat-ready once more, but with this motion, he would be ready in no time.

"Are you okay big guy?" f𝘳ℯℯ𝙬𝒆𝚋𝐧oν𝑒Ɩ.c𝑜𝙢

Samiel asked the big Ork, as Dharzug nodded in agreement because he only needed some time to rest and he would be good as new. Really, Orks were freaks of nature; Samiel saw that he was riddled with injuries, he was bleeding at many places and his stamina was completely depleted, but he was already regenerating on his own.

Now, a coupled whole bunch of potions, the process was sped up several times over, it was clear that Dharzug would be very soon fine.

"I am going to loot this place... interested in sharing?"

Samiel questioned, more like from just an politeness, but as he expected, the Orkish Champion of the Green Gods was not interested in any loot; he just asked Samiel to take him on good fighting and slaughter. Nothing more and nothing less, but what would one expect from the Ork?

They lived for war, breathed for war and existed for war. So for him, the best reward from this was once again, further participation in fights and war because there was no greater honor for the Ork, and there was no greater purpose in their life than to fight and die in battle.

Afterward, Samiel went around and started collecting weapons from the warehouse. Samiel had to admit that there was a tremendous amount of equipment, munitions, weapons, guns, there were even some supplies. Aside from that, there were even armors and other things, probably reserved for the top combatants of the Human Brotherhood.

When he was storing that in the spatial equipment, he already had signs of dollars in his eyes because he could tell that this would fetch an astronomical amount of Credits. For example, he found that the Avalon Kingdom was supplying the Human Brotherhood with Cider Gauss Mana Rifles X.II.0, which were not the most advanced ones, but they were reliable and powerful guns.

Most importantly, a single one cost around 4,000 Credits. Samiel right now counted approximately more than a hundred crates, from which every crate contained around twenty of the Cider Gauss Mana Rifles model X.II.0, meaning there were minimally 2,000 pieces of the guns.

2,000 of Cider Gauss Mana Rifles model X.II.0 were worth at least around 8,000,000 Credits. Of course, there were more than just a hundred crates, and afterward, Samiel would need to make an inventure, but he decided that he would leave this task to his future employees at the Inter-Cosmos Manufacturing Corporation.

It took Samiel more than three hours to completely clean out the place because there was tons and tons of military equipment, probably worth tens of millions of Credits, but even though it seemed a lot, for the big players, it was not that much. Especially for the Gates, to whose this was just a drop in the sea, but then again, Samiel started calculating the numbers.

He was aware that this was probably the biggest warehouse, but from all information obtained through the intelligence of The Guild and Hall of Kadath, he was aware that the Avalon Kingdom supplied practically everything that the HUman Brotherhood was fighting with.

Especially the latest deliveries of weapons and magetech guns, coupled with the previous things, Samiel came into a result that the Avalon Kingdom probably invested billions of Credits into the Human Brotherhood, which was a big sum of money even for one of the Gates, especially one with a very limited amount of business like the Avalon Kingdom.

"They really want to have their little pet projects succeed and turn the tables with the Demon Tribes... unfortunately for them, with me getting the Synergies to the hands of the Demon Tribes, it is only a matter of time before someone from the Star Demon Tribe or Moon Demon Tribe created the counter curse or methods to render the effect of the Genetic Strengthening Synergies useless... of course, if they cannot do that, then someone else from the Demon Species will do that."

Samiel stated mainly to himself as he was thinking over the situation at hand. Sometimes he contemplated that if, during the raid on the Fortress of the Human Brotherhood on the Demon Continent, the "Super Soldier Serums" that he obtained were trap or whatever.

One part of him wanted to believe that they were not the final product that the Avalon Kingdom was developing, but from the mind of the Jaspar de'Charetier, they confirmed that they indeed were. The forces of the Human Brotherhood did the stupidest thing they could do and let it fall into the hands of the Demon Tribes.

Not to mention, the synergies that were researched by the Avalon Kingdom were partially based on those produced by the Solheim Civilization from the Sol Principal World and Scientia Hierarchy. So technically speaking, if the Demon Tribes were unable to come out with the solution themselves, they could still pay a hefty sum or offer their services for the two factions mentioned above to make it for them.

They probably thought that the Human Brotherhood wouldn't be so stupid as they brought the samples, a lot of them, to the forward fortress on the Demon Continent, so they were really asking for it... if the Avalonians found out about that, they would surely get a heart attack from rage.

When Samiel cleaned everything from the warehouse of the Avalon Kingdom, he went to the teleportation array, which he deactivated when he took control of the Wards in this place. He recorded the runes that were in the array, as the people in the Hall of Kadath would be able to use it to locate the world in the Cosmos, to which it was connected.

Then, they would attack the world by themselves or let the Demon Tribes do it if the person in charge from the Hall of Kadath decides to pass the information to the Demon Tribes. Of course, that was not Samiel's problem because he carried out his duty perfectly, and now the only thing which remained was the destruction of this place so that it couldn't be used as an outpost or anything by the Humans or Demons alike.

Samiel had to admit that if not for his means, then if this place was properly fortified and defended, then any attacker would need a lot of, very lot of firepower and manpower to take this place. Due to its geographical location and unique natural conditions of this place, it was very easily defendable, even with a small contingent of soldiers.

"Come on, big guy; we are returning back to the Goldtooth City... the task is completed."

Samiel stated that he took some more volatile substances from his spatial equipment that he found during his journey through the Tower and placed them in various places across the cave system, as his calculations told him.

He planned to destroy this place by the detonation of the Wards and the Wardstone, which would be supplied by further firepower from some explosives, which in turn would cause the collapse of the parts of the Ironan Mountains and this entire cave complex would cease to exist.

Dharzug didn't say anything, just nodded as he followed Samiel; together, they exited the underground cave system. When they exited it, Samiel turned back, and as he was still connected to the Wardstone, he ordered the Wardstone to activate the self-destruction, which applied to all wards that were in the place.

Several seconds later, both of them could hear a series of enormous explosions across the area as the parts of the Ironan Mountains, which stood above the cave system, started falling down, burying the caves forever or until someone dug them up.

"Nice explosion."

Samiel muttered as the ork nodded.
