Volume Dragon: Start by obtaining the Infinity Gems

Chapter 111 Hell Oil
"Me??" Peng Peng was horrified and tried to run back quickly.

But the next moment, the power of transfiguration hit him, and green light mist surged and enveloped him.

"Roar!!"

The light mist dissipated, and a five-meter-tall behemoth rose from it. It was a muscular giant with bluish milky skin and blue hair. It was a cloud giant.

"Hey? I turned into a human? Boss, why did you turn me into a human?" The giant touched his body all over, looking confused.

"It's the Cloud Giant, you idiot!" Nemesis cursed speechlessly.

Cloud Giants are the nobles among the giants. Not only do they possess the strongest bodies, they are also born with powerful spellcasting abilities. Unfortunately, [Transfiguration] cannot replicate the Cloud Giants' spellcasting abilities.

"Go, cooperate with the Sun Elf to get rid of these statues!"

Under Nemesis's command, the Cloud Giant and Catherine set off immediately. Catherine was already a level 12 professional warrior, and a swordsman who also cultivated her physical strength. Together with the Cloud Giant who could rival a level professional, these stone statues were no problem for her.

Facing the invaders, the four arms of these stone statues grew four different weapons, including swords, whips, and spears, and each weapon was burning with a burning flame.

Obviously, the supernatural abilities of these golems are concentrated on melee combat and the power of weapons. Faced with the stone statues carefully prepared by the elven wizards ten thousand years ago, Gafnas carefully avoided the opponent's attacks and looked for a breakthrough point.

But Peng Peng didn't care about being attacked. Relying on the ability of his magical pet that could not die, the Cloud Giant carelessly hammered a golem with his hands. The golem immediately raised the swords in both hands, and the two weapons stabbed into the palms of the Cloud Giant as smoothly as inserting ice cream.

"Ouch!"

Pumbaa screamed in pain, his eyes bloodshot, and he kicked the golem like crazy, with such force that the golem flew away and crashed into the wall. Pumbaa also took the opportunity to shake his hands and looked at his master aggrievedly.

Nemesis was helpless and cast a spell [Heal Severe Injuries]. The milky white energy wrapped around Peng Peng's palm, but it had no effect. The blood was still flowing, and the burn marks on the surface of the wound were extremely conspicuous.

"Huh?" Nemesis frowned, realizing something was wrong. Those weapons seemed to have the effect of suppressing healing.

Fortunately, Pumbaa is a magical pet and will not be affected even if he dies. The illusion of being injured now is just based on the body given by the transformation spell.

Peng Peng seemed to understand that his injuries could not be cured, and relying on his fearlessness, he attacked the remaining golems like a madman. The golems also began to fight back according to an orderly manner.

Seeing the cloud giants and golems in chaos, Gafnas immediately realized that this was a good opportunity. While the golems had no time to take care of other things, she found the right moment and used her sword to cut a golem into eight pieces. Although the ore used to make the golem was obviously very hard, it was still not enough compared to the secondary artifact.

Nemesis, who was watching the show on the side, also became bored. At this pace, it would probably be solved soon. Golems were indeed troublesome for spellcasters, but they were not completely unmanageable. Monsters summoned or transformed by incantations and transformations could deal with them, and they could even be completely crushed by the nine-ring spell [Great Disintegration].

However, for low- and mid-level mages, golems are indeed a nightmare-like existence.

Soon, the four golems were dealt with by Catherine in the same way. Pumbaa turned back to its original form and ran back to its master's arms aggrievedly. It felt like it was about to be tortured by that group of stone lumps.

"let's go"

Just as Audrey was about to speak, the fragments of the stone statue on the ground began to move. They all rose into the sky as if being pulled, and then quickly flew to the furnace in the southeast corner. In just a few seconds, the four intact golems appeared in front of everyone again. "Come again?!!"

Pumbaa was thrown in front of the golem by Nemesis again and was in tears. The power of the spell hit it again, and this time it turned into a fire giant.

The enlarged Pumbaa sneezed and found that a spark was coming out of his nostrils. Just when he was about to study his new body carefully, he found that four golems from the opposite side were rushing towards him.

The four golems had obviously learned their lesson. One of them separated and rushed towards Nemesis and Audrey, two suspected spellcasters, leaving three to deal with Pumbaa. However, they no longer attacked with all their strength. Instead, they began to consciously guard against Catherine who was wandering nearby.

"What a trouble." Nemesis frowned and stretched out his finger as he looked at the rushing golem.

The surging spiritual energy poured out from the fingertips and turned into a powerful invisible telekinesis. The two-meter-tall body of the golem was immediately lifted up by the telekinesis, and the huge force threw it away and hit the wall on the side.

"That furnace must be dealt with."

The furnace in the southeast corner was burning with flames at this time. It was obviously a magical item that combined superb alchemical skills. If the furnace was not destroyed, these golems would probably continue to resurrect.

Nemesis continued to chant spells, and the power of psychic energy and divine magic began to burn. A nine-meter-high giant palm suddenly appeared in the air.

Five-ring energy-shaping spell——[Bigby's Protective Palm]!
Compared to the ten-meter giant palm of [Bigby's Grappling Palm], the initial height of the Protective Palm is only three meters. However, with the dual enhancement of [Olympic Fusion] and [Olympic Fusion], the size of the Protective Palm has been doubled!
The huge palm almost touched the edge of the ceiling and approached the furnace at an extremely fast speed. Several golems immediately gave up fighting with the fire giants and sun elves and tried to block the palm, but it was no avail.

The palm deftly dodged the golem to prevent itself from being annihilated by the anti-magic force field, and then slapped the furnace with a huge force!

"boom!!"

After being strengthened, the attack of the protective palm reached a strength attribute of at least 40 points. The seemingly hard furnace was immediately knocked to the ground, and a pile of black liquid flowed out from the flames. The blazing flames were immediately extinguished.

The golems were quickly dealt with by Gavinas. This time, without the summons of the furnace, the golems obediently turned into pieces and lay on the ground.

"Is this... Hell Oil?" Nemesis walked to the furnace, smelled the black liquid, and was a little unsure.

Hell Oil is a controlled resource of the plane - the Nine Layers of Hell. It is a precious alchemical raw material produced by refining souls of great devils.

This is a kind of existence that is very consistent with the "Philosopher's Stone" in the earth's legend. It has an almost panacea-like effect in the process of refining magic items.

The fact that those golems were able to be restored so quickly was probably the result of the hell oil burning in the furnace.

"Tsk, tsk, what a waste."

Nemesis took out a bottle and collected the black liquid on the ground bit by bit. This stuff is very precious. One gram is enough to exchange for a magic gem worth five thousand gold coins!

The liquid on the ground is worth at least hundreds of thousands!
