Celestial Era: The Rise of the Full-Time Enhancer

Chapter 132 Zemin Clan ( 1 )



Lesley wryly smiled after thinking about how Vincent was so lucky to obtain such a weapon.

After all, even within their large and powerful clan, there are only five people who have Pseudo-Legendary items. As for the Legendary item, she wasn't told about it but it must be lesser than that.

It means that acquiring such a weapon is extremely difficult even with the amount of money they could muster.

'Right, he probably inherited it from his family. Although their clan has fallen, they must have an heirloom or two…'

As she thought of this, she saw how Vincent kept using a Tier 1 movement technique to fight one of the rebels with a large frame and wielding a thick blade.

She realized that Vincent seems to be fighting more carefully than before. Instead of using his superior weapon to his advantage, he was constantly moving and utilizing various techniques in the fight.

'Should I give her a Tier 3 Movement Technique?' Lesley mused as she calmly looked at Vincent.

Elemental Mana Arts weren't just offensive skills after all. There are many movement techniques that use elements as well like Water Treading Steps, Wind Haste, Fire Dash, and Earth Shifting… These movement techniques were certainly a lot better than Vincent's Shrouded Steps although it had reached the perfected state.

Anyway, now that she confirmed that Vincent is in control of his battle, she decided to just focus on eliminating most of the Master Magicians…

With her fusion arts, no one could stop her as she abused her Blazing Meteor!

Boom! Boom!

Her fusion arts were truly destructive as their enemies scattered around and fled for their safety.

'Hmph! I guess there aren't many rebels at Joran's level, huh…' Lesley sneered after seeing the chaos she just created.

Previously, Joran managed to stop the same Fusion Art with a single earth element Mana Art. It was a huge blow for her since that technique could even kill dozens of Barbarians in a single shot.

However, now that she saw how effective it was against the 10 Master Magicians, she finally regained her confidence as she continued her killing spree.

***

The battle ended after 15 more minutes but some of the Savage Beasts decided to flee after their controllers were killed.

In the meantime, Vincent stood in the spotlight during this battle. His performance was one of a kind since he was always filled with energy.

"Incredible… Does he have an unlimited amount of Mana? Wait, was that even Mana, it feels similar to Aura now that I think about it."

"That's true. But his continuous use of Iron Vines together with his movement techniques is suspicious."

"It's not suspicious. He's just several times better than you all."

"Haha! My bad…"

"Well, I think it's also because he has some decent Magic Tools. If we have those same tools, we'll be able to perform similar actions as well."

"No way! It's the amount of his mana!"

The others started discussing Vincent's actions just now. Apparently, Vincent's constant use of Ensnare Skill had truly helped everyone to deal with the wolves and serpents. He had maintained it for several minutes and no one would probably believe it if they haven't seen it in action.

After all, conjuring the iron vines, maintaining them, and then using mana to constrict its target would cost a lot of energy even with the aid of Magic Tools for swift application.

During this time, they didn't see Vincent drink a Mana Recovery Potion or pills with similar effects. It means that all of these actions were maintained by his own supply of mana! That is certainly an incredible feat!

He doesn't even look exhausted so it only means that Vincent still has plenty of mana reserves which is very surprising at his current age.

They haven't seen anyone from the younger generation capable of doing just that and Vincent is obviously the first.

"Alright! Let's leave this area… Don't bother with the corpses and the beasts' cores…" Yulia said as she lead the group away from this place.

Because of their coordinated attack, there were no casualties on their side. There were only some minor injuries which were something even Yulia did not expect. The result was too good thanks to the efforts of some individuals who contributed a lot to this battle.

'Tara, Rem, Vincent… Those three did not just fight but also protected those who are near them… I really should bring him to the clan no matter what…' Yulia said as she also glanced at Lesley.

Seeing that Lesley was also looking at Vincent, Yulia couldn't help but grin as she went to check the group of injured people they left far from the battlefield.

This is where Laurent, the Adept Mage who had lost an arm, is resting together with the others.

"I see that everyone is safe…" Laurent said with a smile as he looked at the cheerful faces of his fellow clansmen. He didn't have to ask about the result of their battle just by seeing the atmosphere around them.

"Hehe… I told you not to worry, Uncle… We have an advantageous position after all." Lesley replied as she approached Laurent.

The group then continued on their journey and this time, they no longer had to force their horses to run faster and they traveled at a leisurely pace…

After being in constant fear of being ambushed or getting chased by the enemies, they felt that it was fine to relax for a bit and regain their energies.

"We're here!" Romain shouted in front after seeing a village ahead of them.

Severin came to Vincent and explained what the village signifies.

"It's the village guarding the entrance of the Dungeon."

"Oh… Does the Zemin Clan not own this village? Why it is not being targeted by the Rebels?" Vincent curiously asked.

"Well, we contributed a bit when this village was being built but we don't rule this village. The man guarding this place is an Arch Knight called Calcifer so the rebels won't attack this place since they won't be gaining that much here anyway…"

"Really? Are the dungeon resources inside not good enough?"

Vincent curiously asked. The first dungeon he entered with Tara had two ponds of serene water and some chambers where various herbs or medicinal plants could grow.

In short, as long as they constantly clear the dungeon creatures inside, they could harvest a lot of resources and earn a stable income.

There should be a lot of organizations vying for the control of this dungeon.

"Well, this dungeon was discovered three years ago and the only creatures inside are Cryptid Crawlers… There are no other resources inside aside from their cores and their body parts. We're also not allowed to take any plants growing there since they weren't valuable and they are the crawler's food…"

"Cryptid Crawlers?" Vincent furrowed his brows as he tried to recall the information about these creatures.

"Ahhh… Aren't they quite strong?" Vincent recalled that these creatures were hard to deal with since they move in groups and have incredible trapping techniques.

"As long as you have Master Magicians who mastered the Fire Element, there shouldn't be anything to worry about." Severin replied with confidence.

Vincent also nodded at this since he knows that many of the members of the Zemin Clan had learned Fire Mana Arts.

Soon, a group of people recognized their entourage as they opened the wooden gates of the village.

"Sir Romain, do you need a place to rest and eat?" One of the guards asked after seeing Romain, one of the leaders of the younger generation of the Zemin Clan, lead the group inside the village.

"Yes! We're also planning to sell these horses since they can't be inside the dungeon."

"Great! I will make arrangements immediately, please follow me!"

Vincent observed the smooth trip inside the village. They were brought to a place where they could rest for a bit and have some meal before entering the dungeon.

Furthermore, there are also a few shops within the village where they could buy and repair weapons.

He found it quite interesting seeing that there were many Unique Weapons in this place…

'I guess you needed a high-quality weapon to explore the dungeon, huh…' Vincent mused as he followed everyone else while Tara and Rem stood beside him.

He then decided to purchase a map of the dungeon for a cheap price of 5 gold coins as he was a bit interested in this kind of place.

It appears quite bigger than the ones they've found and instead of going through various chambers, this dungeon has three floors instead.

'Every dungeon is indeed different… I should try experiencing it myself some other time…' Vincent thought since they will not be fully exploring the dungeon today and will be focusing on getting on the secret passage to arrive at the Zemin Clan's territory.

After an hour, their group finally decided to enter the dungeon… It is connected to the huge wall of rocks in the mountain and like the previous dungeon, its entrance is emitting some strange energy.

Everything finally went smoothly this time since they only used the first floor and only a few lurking Cryptid Crawlers were found…

After two hours of navigation, they were able to safely arrive at the exit!

They were finally at the Zemin Clan's territory!
