Chapter 33 Part7 (1/2)

[You have brought back high level magic engineering and further improved upon it, allowing you to create the highest rank level 8 artifact! Perhaps this is the beginning of a legend. Proficiency in all manrelated skills increases significantly and Magic has increased by 50!]
The moment they finished engraving a magic circle onto the last component, it synchronized and combined with the core, and that message appeared before Lee s.h.i.+n Woo.
Kratia, who'd really helped in the endeavor, achieved a feat that made her go white, and Rem, who'd help them both, gained an increased understanding of golems.
”s.h.i.+n Woo...!”
”...Nice.”
[That's a relief, Master.]
They briefly exchanged looks and then, as if promising beforehand, extended their hands towards the completed golem. But once they began reading the golem's information, Lee s.h.i.+n Woo and Kratia wondered whether they had actually succeeded or not.
[Lv8 t.i.tan Bone Golem]
[A golem that personifies a constantly erupting volcano. The t.i.tan was created to satisfy man's greed to control mother nature. In the process of resurrecting the golem, the power of the sun has been reinforced, and only a human who can survive this intense heat can properly control this golem.]
[Fully Charged. Upon activation, the core can run for a total of 240 seconds, and once that time is up, the core requires a recharge time of 60 days.]
[If the user's level is less than level 8, then their level will be temporarily adjusted to level 8, and all stats will increase. However, this can be detrimental if the body cannot properly handle that increased power.]
The core could fit into the palm of his hand, as it was compressed to the limit, but he had several questions, as the explanation didn't explain things clearly.
But at the very least, there were a few things he could understand: that it could only be used for 240 seconds and that after that 240 seconds had pa.s.sed, it had to recharge for 60 days!
”Keuk... But now's not the time to be hesitating!”
”Do your best!”
[Good luck, Master!]
Lee s.h.i.+n Woo grabbed the completed golem, rushed forward, and infused a portion of his mana into the core. He achieved a complete synchronization with the core, and activated the golem!
[Beginning synchronization.]
The core, which had been dormant until now, suddenly emitted a blinding light, and the outside layers of the core came off and attached to Lee s.h.i.+n Woo one layer at a time.
The equipment he'd had equipped were all unsummoned. A golem's external equipment wrapped around Lee s.h.i.+n Woo's skull, arms, ribs, pelvis, and feet, and it looked as though he was wearing some sort of red bone armor.
[Synchronization complete. Activating the t.i.tan.]
The core attached to his chest and emitted an even more radiant light than before. No matter how he thought about it, he was definitely a giant hero, but the moment he thought that Lee s.h.i.+n Woo's body felt hot. No, it was actually the core's heat spreading throughout the outer equipment!
The magic circles, which were subst.i.tuted for the Mana Breathing ability, which had caused a small tribe to evolve into the giant t.i.tans over a span of hundreds of years, activated simultaneously, causing his body to grow in an instant.
[Activating t.i.tan. Remaining time: 240 seconds.]
Lee s.h.i.+n Woo felt like his body had grown instantly. To be honest, his body was inside of a golem right now, but through the core, he had completely synchronized with the golem and could now move and feel the golem's body as if it were his own.
'Did the t.i.tans always see the world from so high up? I see... it makes sense that Arema Steelworker became so arrogant.'
He finished growing, tapering off at 7 meters tall. He spread his senses throughout his entire body and realized that his five senses had been completely synchronized with the golem. The ground seemed so far away when he looked down. At that moment, he could understand the t.i.tans, who'd looked so large.
'It's hot.'
Despite his High Rank Fire Resistance, it felt hot inside the golem due to the Bone of Lunatic Scarlet. But at the same time, it also felt refres.h.i.+ng, as his mana was being amplified and being spread throughout the golem.
The pleasant feeling offset any pain he felt, and getting over it didn't take very long. It was suffocating, as it felt as though his mana, which had been swallowed up the heat, was changing everything in the world into heat. It would be most apt to describe this feeling as omnipotence.
[Temporarily increasing Strength and Health by 3,000, and Agility and Magic by 2,000.]
Lee s.h.i.+n Woo's level was forcefully adjusted to level 8, and his stats had been amplified to match the golem. His original stats were 7,922, but now, they totalled out at 17,822, which meant that he had instantaneously reached a mid level 8's power!
'The fact that it increased my stats so much must mean that I'm just that weak. The more my stats increase, or in other words, the less of a stat difference between myself and the golem's body there is, then the fewer stats I gain from the transformation.'
It frustrated him that he had to borrow the golem's strength to fight Metafel head to head, but he wasn't going to look a gift horse in the mouth. He would temporarily become the possessor of such strength, which made him realize just how powerful a level 8 truly was!
[Hoo... Heup!]
But the moment Lee s.h.i.+n Woo, who had completely combined with the golem stepped forth, he felt a change occur within the Giants that were fighting desperately on the frontlines.
Arogan, who had been eaten and wondered if this was the end, had been reborn with a body entirely made of bone and seemed much stronger than before. If that wasn't enough, Ellata had also evolved as well!
[Oh t.i.tan!]
[Huaaaaaaaahp!]
It wasn't just them. The other Giants, who had hidden away within their territory and witnessed the t.i.tan's rebirth, began to change as well. Arogan and Ellata were the first to be connected to him, and the other Giants were connected to him through his darkness mana one by one.
Once he'd become a t.i.tan, his (or the t.i.tan's) mana filled the battlefield, changing the very roots of the Giants' existence!
[You have resurrected the t.i.tan. The Giants have realized that they hadn't waited in vain, and are no longer disillusioned. They are now capable of dreaming something anew. They are no longer the dead, who are trapped by death, but have conquered death and have been reborn as t.i.tans.]
[You have acquired the t.i.tle, 'Descendant of the t.i.tans'. All stats have increased by 15. All t.i.tans who follow you are buffed by 10%.]
[Through the item you have created, you have completely broken apart G.o.d's designated hierarchy. While you are operating the t.i.tan, the Rebellion skill activates, further increasing your stats by 16%!]
Several messages appeared, but Lee s.h.i.+n Woo felt more overwhelmed by the darkness mana links that formed between him and the Giants one by one.
The sorrow and tenacity of these Giants, who had waited for the t.i.tan's return for so many years! All of that was in the past now, and Lee s.h.i.+n Woo had given them the courage to take a new step forward. At the same time, they all looked towards Lee s.h.i.+n Woo.
Lee s.h.i.+n Woo was the t.i.tan's Descendant, the very personification of the word 'miracle' to them! At that moment, he had become the t.i.tan's king, and it was now his mission to lead the Giants!
[The t.i.tan is...]
[Moving!]
[Hooo....!]
