Chapter 30 Evolution Continues
30 Evolution Continues
“Wait, quick question, can I upgrade more than one golem at a time?” Alec asked the system.
[ × : Of course, you just have to be ready for the huge loss of mana. I hope you remember what happened the first time you evolved a golem.]
“Oh, I completely forgot about that,” Alec replied to the system in his mind, remembering the serious headache he had when he used 100 mana to evolve Legion back when he was still a (low) Tier 1 mage.
[ × : Well, those are the types of things you should not forget about, since I am taking about 40 mana again for helping you answer another question]
“Well, you do a good job reminding me about that,” Alec said, while opening his status tab to check how much mana he had left.

Opening his status tab made Alec realize that he had left his attribute points untouched for a long time.
“I should definitely get one of my basic stats to 20, maybe there would be a new improvement,”
Alec thought to himself as he held his chin.
He quickly opened the options of another golem since he wanted to try advancing two golems at once.
“Who do you think I should evolve next?” Alec asked, turning to Arthur since he has always been able to give him good advice.
“Definitely, I think the multiple hands golem would be a good choice, I really want to see how it would turn out after it evolves into a Tier 1 golem,” Arthur said.
So, Alec quickly opened the tabs of the six arms Golem as well.
[One of your golems has reached maximum value and can evolve into a Tier 1 golem. Choose its path.]
>Six arms Golem – Tier 1 golem (cost 50 mana)
>Asura Gegenees Golem – Tier 1 golem (cost 100 mana)
The six-arm golem, surprisingly, had only two options, one less than the other golems. Alec, therefore, chose the one that appeared to be more advanced.
“What is an Asura Gegenees?” Alec asked.
[ x : I would love to really scam another 40 mana from you, but I think you should try using your inspect skill on that option.]
Alec quickly used his inspect skill on the evolution path.
The only reason he was this concern was because the golem only had two different paths, and Alec didn’t want it to lose any of its uniqueness.
He wanted the golem to retain its six arms, which is why he wanted to understand the second option before choosing it, as he believed that the last options are always the best out of everything the system has to offer.
[inspect]
The Asura Gegenees golem - This is a golem which had a remarkable fusion of ancient Greek mythology and dark sword demon lore.
Gegenees, is a legendary creature with six powerful arms and the strength to match that of a giant, and it has serves as the inspiration to create this extraordinary golem.
The golem's body structure mirrors that of the ancient Gegenees, combining its robustness with the cruel nature befitting a sword demon.
Seeing this assured Alec that his golem was not going to lose its six arms, making him choose the option."
“Start the evolution of both the sword-wielding golem and the six-armed golem now,” Alec said as he braced himself for the potential headache.
However, the moment the mana left his body, it did not hurt as it had the first time.
[ x : Of course it won’t hurt you, dummy, With a mana pool as big as 500 mana points, do you think 200 mana would give you a headache? Definitely not, You should have realized this by now. Not only has your strength and body improved, but even your mental powers have also improved, making you deal with situations like this more easily]
“All right, if you say so,” Alec said as another transformation began.
“What type of sorcery is this?” Brandon asked.
“I just can’t wait to see what walks out of that tornado of Mana,”
Arthur said as he kept on staring at the two golems that had clearly been levitated into the air, unable to see the type of transformation they were going through due to the surrounding mana.
All he knew was that every time Alec manipulated his Mana like that, the golems seemed to upgrade in realm. Ch𝒆êck out l𝒂t𝒆st 𝒏𝒐v𝒆l𝒔 on n/o/v𝒆/l/bin(.)c/𝒐/m
It took about a minute before the process finished.
The first golem to catch Alec's eyes was the sword-wielding golem, which looked more humanoid than all his previous golems.
It had a normal human height and Alec looked at its face, shocked at the appearance.
If not for the fact that it had no nose and for its red eyes, Alec might have doubted if this golem was a humanoid creature.
It had abs, muscles, and its original trademark of a man carved onto its golem body, with magic.
Its large greatsword was fully inserted into its scabbard at its back, and it wore two black gauntlets that wrapped around its arms with a little claw at the fingertips.
It was no longer as short as Brandon, so clearly no one would mistake the two, except for there choice of weapon.
Alec quickly opened the status tab of the golem to see what had changed.

Alec was sure that thing looked exactly like the Oni Japanese mask he had searched online in his old life.

And the domineering aura the golem emitted didn’t make things easier for anybody watching it.
+ Agility 5
+ Endurance 5
Even though the new golem's equipment was quite lacking in contrast to the others, the fact that its power was still top-notch was no doubt, as it could make up for its shortcomings with its newly upgraded superior sword skills.
After he finished checking out the first golem, he moved his gaze to the other golem, only to be shocked.
From the expressions on the faces of his two siblings, he could tell that they had been in a daze while staring at the new golem, which seems to portrayed wickedness and coolness in one word.
Alec took his time to look at the golem whose weapons had been carefully changed, as each hand held a different type of blade.
One looked curved, one looked wide, but each of the six blades had nothing in common except their black hilt.
Alec was sure of one thing, and that was that those weapons were for slaughtering
"When does a golem need to wear a mask?" Arthur asked, surprised that this new golem had a mask on its face and its whole body was black, like it was made from some type of black stone material.
No matter how Alec looked at this golem, he was sure it had taken on the appearance of the Japanese samurai.
Only that this particular samurai had six hands attached to its side (the two hands at the back were now by the sides) and was a golem who kept on looking like something an Oni (means demon in Japan) has possessed.
Alec thought he was possessed by an Oni because of the mask.
Alec was sure that thing looked exactly like the Oni Japanese mask he had searched online in his old life.
And the domineering aura the golem emitted didn’t make things easier for anybody watching it.
Even though Alec could not see its true expression because of the mask, he felt like this thing was smiling at him.
"I am definitely naming you ONI," Alec said without asking for Arthur’s help in naming the golem.
He just knew at the moment that no name would fit the golem more.
