Nonetheless, the golems that Aquamarine and Ruby spent millions of coins into commissioning were ideal for the raid. I thought we could handle it ourselves, but the more aid we have, the better. I cannot bring my top Undead with me because I left them all protecting my place, at most I can bring armies of lesser undead, but they can only buy time against overpowered foes such as powerful Dungeon Bosses. And I believe the very monsters we'll find there might be several times stronger than the Abyssal Ants we fought back then.
It'll be a lot of bloodshed and danger; we'll need as much Discover more novels on NovelHub - your gateway to endless stories. Only one of us currently wields enough light element power to purify the miasma properly, Emeraldine. But now, we've got 14 powerful golems, as strong as B++ Rank monsters at our side, and all of them come packed with Holy Light Elemental Stones and Runes.
We couldn't had asked for something better.
"This is amazing, nonetheless. Thanks a lot for thinking so far ahead…" I sighed in relief. "But how much did you spent?" I wondered.
"Each Golem costed roughly 25 million gold." Said Aquamarine. "I've used over half my total capital saved through my whole life to help you."
"I did my part as well." Ruby nodded. "Let's call it an investment. If we are truly capable of clearing this dungeon, then it'll be possible that we can attain yet another high ranked dungeon where we could plant resources inside. If everything goes well, of course."
"I see, an investment…" I nodded. "Alright then, for now I'll go make some preparations, potions, and items I need as well. Girls, come with me."
Like that, I quickly walked back to our room and summoned the Alchemy Cauldron out, activating it while I browsed through the many materials I got. I had devised a special spell named [Underworld's Abyssal Veil]. It combines my Abyssal Barrier with the power of Death itself to repel Miasma.
However, its duration is only at most ten minutes, and then it explodes and dissipates, letting the one being protected exposed to Miasma once more. However, such a weakness wouldn't exist if I simply add this Spell to an item, for example, a very powerful Ring or Bracelet, right?
The spell becomes an ability of the item now, and its effects stay on as long as Mana is supplied. The ring will simply absorb Mana from the user. It absorbs a lot though, but those that are going to wear it have tons of it anyways, and even if they lack, I'll simply share my own Mana with them if necessary, it is way easier than keeping the spell up every ten minutes.
However, for the creation of an item that can hold up to such a powerful spell, I'll need top tier materials, so I'll be using most of the materials I got from the monsters in yesterday's dungeon raid. And of course, above that, I'll be using the Spirit Treasures inside of my Soul Scape too.
Tyr, within my Soul Scape, finished taking out some branches from the Tree of Death, and flower petals from the flowers as well. These are high quality materials as well, which I can freely harvest from within my own soul! …Although they regrow very slowly, each petal I took from the flowers will take roughly two weeks. And the branches from the tree? Over a month… it is certainly not a fast production of materials to say the least, but it works and is good enough anyways.
Aside from those materials, there were a few other items I had. The ones I got from the reward clear… They are items that can be used, not just sole materials. But I'll leave them for later, they have specific uses that might come in handy, especially the materials I ended getting from the random item boxes from the normal boss as well.
But for now, it would also be better if I can dismantle this thing… I have the entire Hydra's corpse inside my Inventory and never dismantled it, so let's do this right now.
The sole item [Hydra's Carcass] quickly dismantled, turning into hundreds of separate materials.
[You acquired the [Hydra's Nine Elemental Heads] x9, [Hydra's Crushed Brain] x30, [Hydra's Magic Reflecting Scales] x60, [Hydra's Powerful Bones] x100, [Hydra's flesh] x50, [Elemental Draconic Heart Core] x1, [Exquisite Quality Magic Crystal] x1, […]
Hah… I knew this monster was amazingly valuable, but the materials it gave me are utterly insane. And the best part is that they all come imbued with incredible quantities of magic power. And are of very high quality! With this alone, I can easily make the rings and bracelets I want.
Not only I want some for Emeraldine and Partner, who are the ones affected (as I, Lucifer, Nyx, and the twins are immune to it) but also for Brunhild whose flames can pierce through miasma and protect her, but not totally, and all the dwarves too as a countermeasure. So at the end, I need to make roughly… 17 Rings and Bracelets.
But why rings and bracelets at the same time? Well, to stabilize the entire spell. With a ring alone should be enough, but the ring risks being broken if too much Miasma is there at the end. So to stabilize it, another powerful accessory will share the burden. At the same time, both accessories will be interconnected through Soul Connection Magic, yeah, I'll be putting tiny soul fragments from my very soul into each accessory, just to make them stronger.
It'll end becoming cursed equipment if I do that, but it will be a "good" curse that protects their wielders and devour and repels miasma at the same time, what's better than that? I quickly placed the materials over the entire floor, as Emeraldine and Partner, the beautiful Alchemist Teacher and the cute Alchemist Assistant were flabbergasted by the amount of materials.
Bones, enormous eyeballs, scales, magic crystals, fins, slime, and even cores, I was using a lot of everything we got yesterday.
"Alright girls, let's get started."
