《The Adventures of the Mask Maker》Slaying and Making
Advertisement
With my preparations complete, I used Roaming the Skies and flew to the southeast towards the Sea of Serpents. After an hour of flying, I arrive near the body of water. Once I put on the Mask of the Water Maiden, I dove into the water. With the mask on, I can now breathe underwater and swim very quickly. In addition, I get a small regeneration boost while submerged in water. I began swimming while looking around for any signs of a Sea Serpent or a Lesser Kraken. After a few hours of searching, I see a Lesser Kraken fighting with a Sea Serpent. It seems the Sea Serpent has the upper hand.
As I swam slowly towards the two sea creatures, I realized that they were too focused on their battle that they could not see me approach them. Seeing that I can take advantage of this situation, I hurriedly swam below the two sea creatures. I look at the two creatures and planned out my next move. First, I will activate my Frost Armor skill to form a layer of ice on my chest. Then, I use the Shock skill on both of my hands and arms. Swimming upwards towards the two monsters, I placed one hand on each creature.
*BZZZZZZZZTTTT!!*
Both creatures...coupled with the water...were shocked into momentarily paralysis. Then, I quickly swam to the top to look at the conditions of the two monsters. The Lesser Kraken is suffering from multiple lacerations and blood loss while the Sea Serpent seems to be lightly injured. I swam towards the Lesser Kraken and Shock its head some more. Then, I use Dragon Palm and attacked the head of the Lesser Kraken. The force of the Dragon Palm shocked into the Lesser Kraken's body, rattling and rupturing the internal organs. More blood flowed out from the Lesser Kraken and it soon died after.

I turned my attention towards the Sea Serpent and was met with ramming attack from the Sea Serpent's head. Fortunately, my Frost Armor blocked most of the attack. However, I was still injured and I immediately swam backwards to put some distance. I looked at the Frost Armor on my chest and see it break into pieces, a purplish bruise appeared on my chest. Luckily there is a regeneration boost while under water or I would not last the battle with this Sea Serpent. Taking out my Skinning Knife, I circled around the Sea Serpent while taunting it to make the first move. Maybe it got tired of waiting or maybe it gave in to my taunts, the Sea Serpent surged forwards with jaws open.
Taking out a shard of Eternal Ice, I used the skill Ice Smithing to form a small ice spear. Then, I mixed in some raw Maker's Essence with the ice spear careful not to have the essence fuse into the ice spear. Then, I threw the ice spear at the incoming Sea Serpent. Using Essence Manipulation, I controlled the Maker's Essence in the spear to control the spear. The spear shoots forward into the Sea Serpent's mouth. I move the spear so that it pierces deep within the Sea Serpent. Then, I cause the essence to explode outwards causing the spear to burst into many pieces of essence controlled ice shards. The ice pierces into the organs of the Sea Serpent and began to freeze the monster from the inside. The Sea Serpent struggled in pain for a while before completely froze on the spot. Having killed the Sea Serpent, I removed the Eternal Ice shards and stored it into my bag. Then, I stored the Lesser Kraken's corpse into my ring. Finished, I leave the waters and swam to land.
Using Roaming the Skies, I fly towards the Jungle Lord's Abode where Morian's main body resided. As soon as I landed, I was detected by Morian. He shot vines at me. I immediately wore the Mask of the Fiery Demon to increase my Fire abilities. I raised a fire wall to block the vines and then fired a bunch of fireballs at the plants. The plants burned quickly, but Morian's regeneration was quicker. Soon, the fire did not do any substantial damage. I landed on the ground for a quick second and cast Melted Touch at the ground. The ground instantly turned into a puddle of lava. Then, I leaped into the air again using Roaming the Skies and manipulated the puddle of lava into a Lava Spear using Lava Shaping skill. I threw the Lava Spear at the abode, but it was blocked by a large number of vines. Suddenly, a vine came at my blind spot and slammed into my side. I crashed into the ground and many vines grabbed my limbs. With a scream of pain, I was pulled apart into six pieces...or that's what would have happened. As I neared death, I activated Rebirth by Fire (a new passive skill of mine) which turned me into fire. I reformed back into a human and started attacking again.

I cast numerous number of fireballs at Morian until all my magic was depleted. I took off my mask and switched with Mask of the Bomber. Shadow was summoned and used Bombardment on Morian. I know that the bombs will not deal much damage at Morian, but it can be used as a distraction. I approach Morian and implanted some of my Maker's Essence in it...why I did this...well, I'll tell you later. After I transferred some Maker's Essence into Morian, I retreated. Judging from Morian's actions, I can tell that he has not discovered the Maker's Essence as it disguises itself to regular plant essence. Hopefully, Morian will absorb the Maker's Essence...then...then, I will be able to continue my plan.
Once, I put some distance away from Morian, I continued flying eastward to the Sacred Land of Orcs where the Lamia Hive was located. Upon arriving at the Lamia Hive, I see a Lamia feeding on a human male. Using Flow Like Wind, I immediately appeared behind the feeding Lamia and with a swoop of my Skinning knife, I beheaded the unsuspecting Lamia. Then, I collected the corpse into my storage ring. After that, I took to the skies - flying northwest towards the Sea of Fire in the Ash Plains.
After a few hours, I arrive at the Sea of Fire. I circled around, following the borders of the Sea of Fire to determine where has the shortest distance to the Fortress of Ira. After making a complete lap, I determined what part of the lap had the shortest distance to the Fortress of Ira. Once I made my way there, I used Lava Shaping skill and pushed apart the lava to make a path towards the fortress. Then, using the over 1000 Eternal Ice shards and the Ice Smithing skill, I began to make an extravagant bridge. After making the base of the bridge, I still had over 400 shards of Eternal Ice left over. Then, I use the remaining shards to make the rails of the bridge to prevent any lava from flowing onto the base of the bridge. Now, one should know that Eternal Ice cannot be melted by lava...ever so I don't have to worry about the bridge being destroyed in the future. After finishing my Eternal Ice bridge, I named it "Eternal Ice Strait."
Finished, I move back to the guild to report my completions.
