Chapter 493: Rock Rule
Date- 29 Mar 2321
Time- 13:32
Location- Sky Blossom City, A-rank Ogre Field gate dungeon.
Split up from the others, I head into the dungeon. I had summoned the five stone Viltronians as my bodyguards and instructed them not to kill the hostile unit and only immobilize them.
I have been walking for quite a while in this path but have yet to encounter any Ogres. I started to think that maybe there are no Ogres in this part of the dungeon. But our encounter with 50+ Ogres at the dungeon entrance clearly showed that this dungeon was filled with monsters and nearing the limit of dungeon break. But my experience right now told another story.
As I walked further, it all became clear to me why I had not encountered a single Ogre till now. It was because all the Ogres were assembling here. It seems the aura of my 4 A-rank Stone Viltronians and the A-rank Boss Stone Viltronian had spooked all the Ogres in the surroundings, indirectly leading them to gather together to face the incoming threat together. Looking at the horde of Ogre's in front of me, I was delighted as this saved me the trouble of finding them all individually.
The horde of Ogres consisted of 100 A-rank Ogres, 50 dozen B-rank Ogres, and 300 dozen C-rank Ogres, 4300 Ogres in total. I think 5 A-rank Stone Viltronians are not worth this kind of cautious response from the Ogres. But if one of the 5 A-rank Ogres happens to be a Boss monster with minion summons skill, then this number of Ogres was far from enough. Boss monsters have a more intimidating aura than other monsters of the same realm. Therefore monsters who survive on their instinct can easily differentiate a boos monster from an ordinary monster.
"Clang Clang" seeing a small Army blocking our path, the Boss monster Stone Viltronian walked next to me and asked permission to personally take care of all the small fries blocking my path.
The intelligence and Wisdom stats of the Boss monster Stone Viltronian had increased by a lot, having its calamity daughter core upgraded to calamity daughter gem and had achieved an intermediate level of sentience. The same was true of the other A-rank Stone Viltronians. Their intelligence and Wisdom stats had increased, growing their sentience to an intermediate level. A being with an intermediate level of sentience will showcase the same level of intelligence and wisdom displayed by human pre-teens.
"Sure, go ahead. Remember, do not kill them but immobilize them." Seeing the confidence displayed by the boss monster Stone Viltronian, I decided to give it a chance.
"*Clang* Petrification *Clang*." gaining my permission, the Boss monster Stone Viltronian did not hesitate any longer, and facing the Ogre army, it activated its skill, Petrification. The holes that made the eyes of the Stone Viltronian shone with a brilliant flash. And wherever the light of flash landed, that place petrified into stone, be it elephant grass covering the ground or the Ogre army ready to charge at us. All of them were petrified into a stone statue. The entire landscape had turned into one large sculpture. It was as if the beauty of the dungeon was captured and immortalized by petrification.
"Clang Clang," the Boss monster Stone Viltronian turned to me, looking to be praised for the feat it had achieved.
"What in the name of holy rock! When did you learn petrification, and why the heck is it so overpowered?" I was the one who turned the stone element's shape from Stone trolls into Stone Viltronians, and I knew every skill in their arsenal. Yet I had never seen or heard or read a Stone troll use petrification skill before. Therefore I could not help but ask when and how it learned the petrification skill.
"Clang Clang… Clang," Surprisingly, the Boss monster Stone Vitronian answered my questions enthusiastically. Describing its adventures and achievements in a detailed manner. I cannot believe that I am having a complete conversation with the Boss monster. Before upgrading to the calamity daughter gem, the Boss monster only knew to follow and execute my instructions with the help of hive AI. Still, now its thought process had advanced, and it could have an independent conversation with me.
The Monster Orb's ability is to nurture and tame the monster stored in it. That meant within the monster orb, the monsters were mentally awake and would be mentally influenced to forget the wildness and follow the orders of the card apprentice.
This much mental independence was enough for the Boss monster stone Viltronian to mentally enter the one with world state through the calamity soul gem and start comprehending rules. Being a Stone elemental, the first rule that the Stone Viltronian gained insight into was the Rock rule. And at the bifurcation point of the rock rule, it was lucky enough to have chosen the Petrification meaning. Over the period, its mastery of the meaning increased along with its understanding, enough to forge the petrification rune of the ultimate tier. Apparently being a stone elemental, it had a strong affinity with the Rock rule allowing it to achieve the ultimate tire in petrification, meaning in a short time. Having achieved completion in one meaning, it had already chosen the second meaning in the Rock rule. However, its mastery and understanding of the meaning still weren't enough to know the title of the second meaning it had chosen to comprehend.
The Boss monster Stone Viltrionian wasn't the only one who naturally learned to use the calamity daughter gem as an ego gem. But the other four stone elementals did too. They all seemed to have commonly comprehended rock rule as their first rule. Proving my theory that the stone elementals had a strong affinity with the rock rule. But the rock rule affinity of 4 normal stone viltronian was not as strong as the affinity of the Boss monster. This was evident through my observation that these four stone viltronian had yet to achieve completion in their first meaning, unlike the Boss monster.
