319 Chapter 319 Ancient Creature
Aldred felt his whole body restricted, as if he was tied by a powerful rope, and his whole body became a thousand time heavier. He could barely move his eyes, but he saw something large appeared.
It was a large eye, ten times larger than normal Living Eyes.
[Ancient Living Eye]
Level: ??
Power:???
History: Ancient beings of old. Its existence was worshiped and feared. Its body contain a vast dimension of 74 worlds where sentient races of all kinds were subjected to his power. The Ancient Living Eye use its power to suck anyone and anything and put them in one of its 74 world. It was said that those who entered this world will never be able to get out, and the ancient being can control their fate however it wishes.
Aldred deeply frowned. What a crazy history! A creature that had a vast dimension of 74 worlds? Such creature must be so powerful, and yet this treasure hunting test managed to put a monster of this caliber.
Just like Xer Xai, the Ancient Living Eye were captured and its power weakened thousands of times and were placed here as a test for the treasure hunters. Usually, the creatures around would be powerful and hard to defeat, but occasionally, something like Xer Xai or this Ancient Living Eye would appear.
But Aldred was slightly jealous of this creature. His divine dimension only had 2 KM of space, but this creature got 74 worlds? How much was that exactly? If 1 world equaled a planet, then that meant the dimension was as big as planet earth times 74.
But Aldred might be wrong. The world might be much larger than that.
If Aldred fought this creature in its true form…
‘I don’t think I will survive at all,’ Aldred thought.
But luckily, the creature was weakened, so he easily removed all the debuff from his body.
The three figures: silver haired ice mage, power armored man, and the lizardfolk used special treasure to break the spell.
And Stella easily waved away the spell from her comrades.
The other people were shocked to see them easily removing the debuff while they could not do anything about it. Truly, Elite Gold Ranks were a different class on their own. Each one of them were specials and seemed to be blessed by the goddess of luck herself.
Aldred’s body then moved forward, as he approached the creature.
The ancient being were quite surprised to see that. Anyone that saw its appearance would tremble in fear. It had seen a couple of foolish creatures before, but this human felt no fear. In fact, it seemed like the human was looking down at it.
The man in power armor creased his eyebrows, and so did the silver haired girl, and the lizardman. The three of them wondered if Aldred was planning to fight this monster alone.
The lizardman frowned. ‘There is no way he would fight that thing alone. Even I can feel that it is not a normal monster.”
The man in power armor activated its scanner attachment, and found some readings that cannot be translated, and unreadable data. “What is that thing… I cannot measure its power.”
While everyone was staring at the creature in fear, Aldred smiled and curled his finger a few times as if he was saying: Come and fight me.
The gigantic eye looked at this human in indifference, but suddenly the entire eye turned bloody red, and it seemed angered.
“Did he just angered that thing?” the lizardman said.
“Foolish…” the man in power armor commented.
“I will watch this man got himself killed,” the silver haired girl said.
The large eye with a tail trembled, and then limbs began to grown from below. Aldred raised an eyebrow to that, and t he monster even began to grow claws and fins.
Soon after, it lunged at Aldred with ferocity unmatched against any beast he had fought before. Aldred yawned, and took a small step to the side, dodging the the attack, and causing the claws to land on empty water.
Aldred smiled. That was within his expectations.
Chuckling, he summoned his sword and was about to unleash his attack when the Ancient Living Eye turned around and clawed him. Aldred Blocked the attack, but he made a mistake of blocking his own sight from his enemies. His godly eyes needed less than a second to adjust, but that was enough time to catch Aldred off guard.
Another claw attack struck him, and he was sent drifting a few meters away.
When Aldred take a close look at the Ancient Living Eye, he saw that the eye had become purple, and a notification appeared on the corner of his eyes.
[EYE OF FATE: The eye has set its gaze upon you. No matter your skill, luck, or item, you have a 60% chance of dying]
Aldred frowned. He had never seen this type of notification before, so it must be serious. But what was this skill? A skill that can control probability?
‘It said here that no matter what, my chance of dying is always fixed at 60%.’
That was utterly overpowered!
No wonder this thing was called ‘Ancient’. It was too powerful. Even Aldred got more jealous of its power.
The Ancient Living Eye lunged at him again, and executed a series of claw attacks.
The lizardman tightened his grip on the trident. “We should help him. If we fight together, we might win.”
“Don’t bring me with you, if you want to die,” the silver haired girl coldly said. “That creature has control over fate itself. Something that powerful, only my master can defeat it.”
The lizardman clicked his tongue.
“No need to be worried,” a please voice came.
When the lizardman turned around, he saw a beautiful woman with tan skin.
“My husband doesn’t need help,” Stella said.
“Is he your husband?” the lizardman asked.
“Well, we haven’t got married yet, but I might as well call him that. Why do you ask?”
“It’s just weird that a woman over a thousand years old would marry an eleven year old boy.”
“You have keen eyes.” Stella smiled. “No wonder you are an Elite.”
“Are you sure, your man doesn’t need help?”
“He can handle it by himself.”
The three of them were of course shocked to hear that. How could this woman be so confident while her man literally fought something powerful.
As the battle progressed, the Ancient Living Eye let out a powerful shock wave as if it was roaring. The eye enlarged, and a powerful wave came from the eye.
At first they were confused what that attack was for until they realized their body were slowly turning into stones. Even the man in power armor slowly turned into stone while he was inside the armor. He and the two Elite Gold Rank had to use another special treasure to break the spell.
They then looked at Aldred, since he received the direct impact, he should be turned into stone immediately.
But to their shock, they saw Aldred was staring back at the creature without being turned into a stone.
The Ancient Living Eye shook. It felt something wrong, and then realized that its claws were turning into stone, and so did the limbs. It could not believe that. Did that man deflected the spell and threw it back at it?
The creature looked at the man one more time. Aldred’s deep black eyes were glowing. What a powerful human!
The ancient being had only met a few powerful human before, and it was very impressed by the skill.
It didn’t felt remorse or sadness as it was being turned into a stone, it simply felt astonished to be defeated by such a young human. That was the difference between the ancient being and a mere mortal.
The Ancient Living Eye formed a small mouth and asked: “What is your name?”
An ear formed next to the mouth, as if telling Aldred to reply.
Aldred approached the creature and whispered: “My name is Jeff.”
After Aldred said that, the creature was completely turned into stone.
