Chapter 404 Stone Metal Monster

Obviously, that was just Abel’s wishful thinking . He was busy now . There wasn’t really a time to build a house until this was over .

After picking up Johnson’s head, he inserted his power of Will into the stone metal monster that was lying on the ground . Since there was the essence of a dragon in his soul, he was able to kill the stone metal monster’s remaining soul .

The stronger Abel became, the more control he had over the dragon’s power that was inside of him . As little of it there was, it was powerful enough to kill many, many creatures with the slightest dose . It was the same for the stone metal monster . Now that its soul was eradicated, all that remained was a pile of useless metals .

When Abel scanned the stone metal monster’s remains with his power of Will, he realized how complex its inside was built to be . He then opened it apart, then stuffed Johnson’s head in the opening . After that, he solidified the parts that were connected with some metal pieces he had .

“Do you need a pair of eyes?” Abel asked .

Johnson replied, using the soul chain, “No need, master . I can make it with the parts that are near my head . ”

That’s what Abel liked to hear . This way, he didn’t have to do more damage to the stone metal monster’s defensive capability . When he tried to put the parts back, the stone metal monster suddenly started walking .

It was Johnson that was doing this . Now that it was connected to the stone metal monster’s body, it could very easily move it around .

“That’s great, Johnson! You’re doing great!” Abel praised . To be fair, he didn’t expect most of the stuff he tried to work . After all, the stone metal monster was a creation of the orc priests . If he didn’t have full control of it, Wizard Cliff might just charge him with the crimes of “siding with the Orc Empire . ” That’s something that he really wasn’t into at this point .

Now, then . The ordinary “stone metal monster” didn’t have much of an effect on his whole squad’s fighting capability . That didn’t matter too much, though . It was more of an experiment to him . If it was destroyed in a battle, he could also break it apart to do more research .

In fact, he was already thinking about some new runes that he could make . If he had the rune pattern for a glowing metal gear, he could just make a new stone metal monster from scratch . By that point, he could make any number of new bodies for Johnson .

One question remained, though . Abel wasn’t sure how he was going to summon the stone metal monster . So far, he tried to use the “command skeletons” spell to boost the powers of his spiritual guardian knights . As it was in the same class of spells as the ones that the orc priests used, he might have to put the research for both into the same place .

Before that, Abel called Johnson to stop running around . When Johnson listened to him, a bunch of the multi-surfaced spheres started rolling towards it .

As more spheres started piling on top of Johnson, it became taller and stronger than before . It was very sensitive to magic gemstones, so it quickly realized how different the metal spheres Abel built were .

Abel explained to Johnson, “Remember this, Johnson! Red is fire, blue is ice, and yellow is lightning!”

Stone giants were born to control metals . As soon as Johnson listened to the explanation, it quickly sorted out metal spheres that were inside of it into their own groups . Eventually, once all ten thousand something spheres were absorbed, Johnson reverted back to its 10 meter tall height .

It was a lot stronger than its original form, though . The most evident indicator of that would have to be its weight, which was now a total of 10,000 pounds . Once it started moving, even Abel wouldn’t dare to stop the destructive force that could be produced . In terms of physical damage, it was now invincible on both the offensive and the defensive side .

And the geometry that Abel designed; Spheres were perfect for taking massive hits . If the attacks became too much for it to take, the shock would easily be distributed from the part that it was hit .

Right now, Johnson’s main part was the stone metal monster’s body, which was sealed with a layer of metal balls on its edge . If someone dared to attack its head, he would have to face the stone metal monster’s attacks right after the metal balls were cleared off .

For the sake of testing, Abel took out a knight’s big sword and slashed at Johnson . He didn’t use his combat qi for it, but still used a lot of strength .

Clang .

And just like that . Abel’s knight’s big sword flew into the air . At the same time, he couldn’t stop his hands from shaking .

Abel said as he rubbed his hands together, “This… this is absolutely frightening! Whoever tries to launch a physical attack at this, it would be completely useless!”

Luckily, he wasn’t using his full strength . If he was, all that power would be bounced back to him using “full counter damage,” which was the strongest ability that the stone metal monster possessed . And judging by the amount of force that came back, Johnson must be at least level 12 after it was connected to the stone metal monster . The rebound was about three times to what Abel put in

“What monster have I made?” Abel said in his own mind .

In terms of power, there wasn’t anything that he could compare Johnson to . In terms of speed, Johson had two meter legs . Nothing could outrun that . Even if there was something faster, Johnson could always attack them with its long-distance attacks, which was basically done by throwing the metal balls that were on its body .

If Johnson had to throw the metal spheres, it was told to always pick them back up . It had no problem doing it because of how sensitive it was towards gemstones . Even if it couldn’t, Abel could always make more with his skills as a grandmaster blacksmith .

Abel wasn’t satisfied with that, yet . He could also make Johnson learn to use a weapon . While thinking about it, he shot a fireball from his hand towards it . Once the fireball landed, the part that was hit was suddenly covered in red gemstone metal balls . Obviously, no damage would be taken . With all the buffs placed on it, it was pretty much close to being immune to fire .

Abel tried to shoot an “ice bolt” at it . The same thing happened . The part that was hit was covered in blue gemstone metal balls . After that, he tried attacking it with lightning attacks . More specifically, he tried to attack it with his “static field” spell, which was a lightning spell that could cover up an entire area with a deadly electric shock .

As powerful as the “static field” was, its weakness was very obvious . While casting it, its caster would lose all chance to protect himself . If the enemies were fast enough, they could pretty much attack the caster many times before they became affected . Also, if the target was resistant against lightning, the damage that could be dealt with would decrease by a whole lot .

Despite all that, this spell had a lot of strength that shouldn’t be ignored . For starters, its initial hit could decrease by about 25% of the opponent’s health points . This effect would become weaker as the opponent’s health became close to 50% . While it was not recommended for fighting against intelligent, living beings, it could do a whole against inanimate objects like, say, Johnson .
