Chapter 1759: The Man that Came Out of a Golem Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales Translated by XephiZ Edited by Aelryinth At night, Mo Fan resisted all kinds of temptations and instead sat on the balcony of his room. He enjoyed the night breeze from the bald mountain while attempting to break through the barrier of his Earth Element. As a matter of fact, the experience of cultivating on the balcony reminded him of the days when he was still studying at Tian Lan Magic High back in Bo City. He had spent every night on his balcony, as he desperately wanted to stand out among his peers. He would not leave until sunrise. He would spend months doing the same thing, but making negligible progress. However, it was completely different now. It had only been a few days since the Awakening of his Earth Element, yet he was already about to expand his Earth Element into a Nebula. The barrier he was trying to break through was not very sturdy, mainly because Mo Fan’s mental strength was simply too outstanding. The bottleneck he used to struggle against back when he was still in high school no longer existed. “Great, the process is very smooth!” Mo Fan rose to his feet and felt the fresh energy of the Earth Element pouring into his new Nebula. He was more sensitive to the presence of the Earth Element in his surroundings after his cultivation improved. Earth Magic was indeed several times stronger when the Barrier Core was active, and was repelling the other Elements. “I might be able to reach the Advanced Level of the Earth Element in no time by cultivating in an environment like this!” Mo Fan’s eyes sprang open. He was glad that he had decided to tag along with the group! —— Mo Fan practiced constructing the Lightning Star Palace for the rest of the night. The Star Palace was made up of twenty-four hundred and one Stars. Mo Fan had only reached the second Star Constellation, while the first one was the foundation of the Advanced Level he was already familiar with. At dawn, Mo Fan stretched out and decided to take a walk on the street, as he was feeling a little hungry. He finally found a stall selling buns outside the fortress. It was rare to see a breakfast place like this when only Mages were allowed to enter the city. It lightened up Mo Fan’s mood, as he was a little worn out after cultivating for the whole night. “Hey, are you serious about what you just said?” a Hunter whispered beside the stall. “I saw it with my own eyes. A Rock Monster like nothing I’ve seen before came out of the ravine yesterday. The military took care of it...” a man wearing a straw hat said. “I heard that too, but why was it a big deal?” “It was not, until you saw what was inside the Rock Monster’s body,” the man with a straw head continued theatrically. “What could it be? Probably some expensive rock crystals, if we are lucky enough!” “It was a human! There was a man inside the Rock Monster after it turned into a pile of dust. It was most likely one of the miners who went missing a week ago!” the man with a straw hat exclaimed. Mo Fan was munching his buns without paying much attention to the conversation. However, he immediately raised his ears after hearing what the man had just said. He was at the scene yesterday when the Rock Monster showed up. However, they had left early after the Rock Monster was taken out due to the argument. They did not see what the military did to the remains of the Rock Monster. To his surprise, there was a follow-up after the incident! The Rock Monster was obviously an Elemental creature. Why would there be a living human inside it? Was the man eaten by the Rock Monster? A piercing siren suddenly went off, startling the people in the city’s west. The siren was an indication that the city was under attack, so everyone was immediately on alert. “Something has invaded the city, let’s go take a look!” 1 “It’s coming from the ravine!” — Mo Fan followed the Mages to the outskirts of the city. He stumbled into Tao Jing and Lin Qihui along the way. The two had come over from the inn as soon as they heard the siren. Tao Jing was surprised to see Mo Fan. “You woke pretty early!” she greeted him. “I was feeling a little hungry, so I went to grab breakfast. It looks like something has happened,” Mo Fan answered calmly. “Let’s go take a look!” Lin Qihui said enthusiastically. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢 The three ran to the outskirts and stood on the wall. They were able to see the whole ravine with a single glance. They felt suffocated just looking at it. There was a low-lying field between the ravine and the fortress, where many Battlemages were standing by. A bunch of Rock Monsters, similar to the one they saw yesterday, had shown up a kilometer away in the ravine. Their stone bodies looked quite solid under the sunlight. They were like tanks rolling out as they charged at the fortress in a straight line! “Why are there so many of them all of a sudden?” Tao Jing blurted out in surprise. “It’s pretty normal. There are millions of demon creatures in the cave. This is nothing in comparison. The military should be able to take care of them with ease,” Lin Qihui answered easily. Mo Fan looked at the number of troops. The military had allocated plenty of soldiers to the city to ensure it was upgraded successfully. The Rock Monsters might be a pain to deal with for a group of Hunters, but their attempt to break through the city’s defense was like hitting a rock with eggs! “Help, someone!” They suddenly heard a man crying from below the wall. “There’s something over there!” Tao Jing pointed at the street and buildings after she quickly noticed something. “It’s a Rock Monster... how did it end up in the city?” Lin Qihui blurted out in shock. “We have to save him!” Tao Jing immediately jumped down from the wall. She nimbly made her way down the wall by using the buildings of different heights as her stepping stones. She soon reached the building the Rock Monster was near after a few jumps. The Rock Monster looked no different from a human from afar. However, they realized it was as big as a house after they were close enough. It had already caught the man who was screaming for help when Tao Jing arrived. “Let go of him!” Tao Jing snapped. She drew a Star Pattern and summoned a heavy object that looked like a stone cauldron. It slid across the ground and rammed into the Rock Monster’s legs. The Rock Monster staggered from the impact, tossing the man into the air. Lin Qihui had just arrived and managed to catch him. The man was not injured, he was only feeling a little light-headed. Lin Qihui handed the man to Mo Fan and said, “Bring him somewhere safe. I’ll help Tao Jing. She can’t handle the Rock Monster alone.” “I’ll help her, a little demon creature like that...” Mo Fan said. The Rock Monster was tough, but it could not even withstand a single spell from a violent Mage like Mo Fan. Therefore, the Rock Monster was like a little weakling in his eyes, since it was as easy as pie for him to eliminate it. However, Mo Fan remembered that his other Elements were not available before he finished the sentence. He could not help but shake his head helplessly and sigh. Who cared if he couldn’t use other Elements? He could treat it as a practice putting his Earth Element to practical use in a real fight!
