《The Rise Of A Porter 》Chapter 71: Trans-Dimensional Portal (2)

"Oh Look, it's angry." Arnold stretched his neck and chuckled, when he saw the 16 feet behemoth in front of him was huffing angrily as it prepared to run him over. (Author's note : height of the actual behemoth was around 70 m or 229 ft, in case anyone is wondering about it.)
Asterios was having a good time as well. After all, the minotaurs were race born to fight and Asterios was one of the biggest and the strongest minotaur Arnold had ever fought with. He was ferocious even though he only had about 65% of his strength when he was alive. No wonder he was a dungeon boss before he was resurrected as one of Arnold's summons. Asterios looked really happy as it was the first time Arnold had called him out and was fighting along his side.
Arnold was using his good old [VINDICATOR] and quickly shot a couple of bullets at the behemoth in front of him. The [VINDICATOR] had undergone many upgrades as well and was now an A ranked weapon which had the ability to simultaneously shoot different types of bullets. Thanks to Arnold's maxed out [Magical Gunslinger] abilities, The damage dealt by the weapon had also increased a lot.

___
"Not much effective huh? Well we can always change that. Can't we?" Arnold shrugged his shoulders before dodging the behemoth's attack. The behemoth ran past him and slowly turned around to face him once again.
All of a sudden, Arnold's hands started glowing and his guns made a clicking sound as if a new magazine was inserted in them.

"I know you have a tough skin, but let's see if you can tolerate THIS!" Arnold yelled as he prepared for the recoil that was about to hit him.
Arnold's shot pierced the odd noise of the forest as fiery bullets were shot from his gun successfully managed to hit their mark.

___
Although his shot managed to trigger so many exclusive skills, the damage was much less than what Arnold had expected.
'It's got a high defense stat, it's skin is thicker than Asterios' skull and it's huge... do these qualities make the behemoth special enough to be resurrected as an elite summon?' Arnold thought as he kept firing more of his 'fiery bullets' at the behemoth. At most Arnold could use this bullets for 4-5 times before his guns got overloaded. But he already had a solution to end this fight in the next 3 to 4 shots.
Before he fired his next shot, Arnold activated his [BERSERKER'S RAGE] ability and his attributes as well as the damage causing skills got a temporary buff off 150%.
"Let's dance, shall we?" Arnold smiled and emptied his gun on the behemoth.
***
AFTER FIGHTING AND SLAYING COUPLE OF MORE BEHEMOTHS...
Arnold was sweating heavily, even his hair was damp from his sweat. He held his knees and panted, glad that the battle finally came to an end. "Their skin is way thicker than I thought. I'm exhausted…"

He kicked the body of the behemoth that he and his summons had slain, before storing it in his void.
"5 behemoths, that should give me more than enough material to forge new armours for everyone." Arnold wiped the sweat on his forehead, before telling Cerberus to use his [blood rune] and obtain the behemoth's form as a transformation.
Arnold was actually enjoying all the monster hunting in this new place, but it was taking a lot more time than he could afford. He still had to look for all the monsters in this area and hope that he finds the 'boss' soon. He was playing with his guns when an idea hit him.
"OF COURSE! WHY DIDN'T I DO IT EARLIER?" He exclaimed loudly. Even his summons got startled a bit by his sudden scream, "The forest is full of organic things after all!"
He tightened his grip on his gloves and ordered his summons to stay behind him as he prepared to unleash the arcane flames to burn down the entire forest. Once the forest was on fire, the monsters would only have two choices, either run out of the forest and into the ambush prepared by him or stay inside the forest and burn to a crisp.
After successfully igniting the fire, he instructed his non-organic summons, like frost golems, automatons, and lava hounds, to help in spreading the fire throughout the forest while the others prepared to engage the monsters that would soon be rushing towards them.
"This is going to be a lot of fun." He smiled as the sea of flames spread through the forest, and consumed everything in its path.
Arnold then used his [ELEMENTAL CONTROL : EARTH] ability to raise many platforms and stationed his summons on them while he waited for the chaos to begin.
Soon there was some movement on in front of him. He was expecting a sh*tload of monsters to be running at them, but instead of monsters... half a dozen men walked out of the forest. They were all adorned in a white armour. They seemed to be dragging something behind them. It was one of Arnold's automaton that had been shattered into pieces, only it's main body was intact.
"You thought you could simply steal our dungeon and walk out of here like nothing happened? Really?" One of the men laughed and threw the destroyed automaton at Arnold's feet. "What are you laughing at jerk?"
"Nothing, I was just imagining how your sad faces would look like once I'm done with you lot." Arnold smirked and jumped down from the platform he was standing on.

Anathema
The Prince used to dance — until he discovered the strings moving his legs. The Rebel used to hope — until reality slammed a door in her face. The Spy used to live for nothing but money — until he found himself a family. And the Slave craved freedom more than air — until a small hand reached to her for help. Eskela has known conflict for centuries. War had been engrained into the very soil of every one of the eight kingdoms, and blood has been smeared over history to paint a lie. When young prince Aldric, heir to the Aguki throne, learns his position is nothing but a farce, his world crumbles down around him. As he tries desperately to find power in a world determined to rob him of it, his cousin Rhiann plots to find freedom through more extreme and destructive means. Conflict does not reside in Cinthra alone, though. Erden, newly hired spymaster for the crown prince of Promnir, is tasked with keeping an eye on the kingdom’s council. The job that was supposed to just be about money quickly spirals into a fierce loyalty, one that leads him to the front lines in order to desperately prevent another war from beginning. Azala, a slave bought by the royal family of Azmosir, finds her loyalty is not nearly as solidified as that of Erden’s. But while the prince she serves plots to steal that which does not belong to him and the queen she respects holds on to a lingering desire for revenge, Azala realizes that she must choose whom to save: herself or Azmosir's defenseless and young princess.
