The weight was immense, but with his strength more than a hundred times that of an ordinary person, he was easily able to handle it.
He walked around for a while and felt his movements slightly more deliberate, more powerful. The sense of strength coursing through his veins was enormous and he looked like a god of war standing on front of a mirror. He quickly activated the Incognito mode and the entire armor, guanlets and other equipments literally vanished from sight, leaving him with just his black shirt and blue jean.
He looked at the legendary weapons and his eyes shimmered.
"Now… time to equip my soldiers."
He focused his will, drawing upon the connection that extended towards his Blood Shadows.
The tattoos peeled right off and crimson light flared beside him, coalescing into five distinct figures.
Levi, the Attack Titan shadow, materialized first, kneeling immediately. His eyes glowing with fierce loyalty.
"Master."
Baltzer, the former Lizardmen King, appeared next, bowing without hesitation. He was a bit smaller but his intelligent eyes rolled around in a shifty manner.
"Master… G—"
Hearing the word that seem to want to have an extended extra word at the end, made Lucian squint his eyes as he smiled at Baltzer.
This bastard actually almost called him gay again.
"Hmph!"
Then, the three Elite Titan Shadows solidified, hulking brutes nearly as tall as Levi, though lacking his unique aura. They were raw power, loyal but less refined.
They stood silently, awaiting orders like obedient soldiers.
"Levi," he commanded. The crimson titan looked up. Lucian tossed him the World Splitter Axe (Legendary).
Levi caught the massive weapon effortlessly, his form seeming to swell slightly as he gripped it. The axe's runes flared in response to his survey.
Lucian then passed him the Immortal Mountain Shield (Legendary) and an epic grade body armor. Levi equipped the massive shield to his other arm and also wore the armor.
Suddenly, his aura suddenly surged like a wave as his strength increased drastically.
Lucian's smile widened as he nodded his head happily. Then he turned to Baltzer.
"Baltzer." The Lizardmen King turned. Lucian tossed him the Blade of the Phoenix Soul (Legendary). Baltzer caught it, and the fiery blade seemed to respond to his surprisingly agile form, flames licking around him. Lucian also gave him a Shadow Walker's Tunic (Epic) and the Windstrider Boots (Epic) to enhance his speed and stealth. Baltzer now looked like a lethal, flaming assassin.
To the three Elite Titan Shadows, Lucian distributed the remaining epic gears.
The transformation was insane. just the five of them were rippling with enough energy that even almost suffocated Lucian, their master!
Glowing runes their weapons and armor, enhancing their already intimidating presence. They looked like generals from a demonic legion.
Lucian felt a surge of satisfaction. Even those legendary class like necromancers didn't have the luxury to equip their death soldiers legendary weapons!
Lucian could imagine his entire Blood Soldiers equiped with legendary and Mythic weapons, they would all be a force to be reckoned with!
He stored the remaining Epic items, skillbooks, gems, and the Legendary blueprint carefully.
He'd dispose of them later.
But first, he needed to fill his mana storage to the brim before leaving for the third floor.
Sitting cross legged, he activated Heavenly Demon Transformations and his mana regeneration speed increased drastically.
In under three hours, even the Celestail Mana well was ful to the brim.
Prepared, and armed to the teeth Lucian took a deep breath.
"I want to challenge the Third Floor." Lucian spoke, his voice containing a hint of excitement at testing his strength and that of his Blood Soldiers.
Suddenly, a bright light descended on him as he was directly transported into the third floor of the Galactic Tower.
What he felt first was an intense heat, followed by a deep, roar that resonated in his bones.
The blur of color from the travel shifted to oppressive red, orange, and black as an intense smell of sulfur and burning rock filled his nose!
Lucian found himself standing on cracked, rock that radiating an intense about of heat upwards. If it weren't for the boots he was wearing, his leg would have been sizzling right now.
Even the air was distorting with the amount of heat being produced. The sky was blood red as though the world was about to come to an end.
Even the surroundings was crimson red from the crimson rays of the blood moon above.
Rivers of molten magma flowed sluggishly through deep fissures in the ground, illuminating the entire land as though it was hell itself.
Before Lucian could even fully take in his surroundings, numerous snarls ripped through the air nearby.
From the smoky fog ahead, numerous massive figures appeared.
They were more than 3 meters tall in high length and height!
Their eyes burned with intense hunger as they locked in on Lucian with.
Thick acidic saliva, dripped from jaws filled with dagger-like teeth. Their claws that was even longer than an adult male hand scraped against the heated rock as they stood there.
[Name: Hell hounds]
[Level: 30]
Moreover, they're was at least a dozen of them that appeared almost instantly upon his arrival.
"AWROOOOOOOO!"
The lead hound let out a chilling howl, as though it was a signal to attack, the pack charged towards Lucian with astonishing speed.
Their bodies transformed into an orange blur as they broke speed barrier
Thwre was no time to think about anything, Lucian instantly released his Blood Shadows.
He had only appeared a second ago and the Third Floor greeted him with violent intruders. Since they can't be welcoming, they have just one outcome— death!
"Kill!" Lucian roared.
Instantly, crimson light flared around him. Levi, Baltzer, and the three Elite Titans materialized, their newly acquired legendary and epic gear gleaming dully in the hellish red light.
The sheer intimidating aura of Levi, wielding the World Splitter Axe and Immortal Mountain Shield, momentarily made even the charging Hell Hounds pause.
But only for a microsecond. Hunger and ingrained violence overwhelmed the temporary surprise.
Levi's face turned cold at the impunity of the hell hounds! They actually held killing intent towards its master!? They deserve death without reincarnation!
"BOOM!"
He stomped his foot, and the already cracked ground shattered.
He brought the massive legendary Shield up, bracing it against his shoulder. Three Hell Hounds slammed into the legendary shield with the force of battering rams.
"Bang!" "Clang!" "Thump!"
The sound was deafening. Sparks flew as claws and teeth scraped against the legendary shield. However, the Level 30 hell hounds could do nothing against the level 20 Titan!
