Omega Summoner-Novel

It might be difficult to move in the eastern continent but that does not mean Adrian cannot. Just like now, all he needs to do is keep a low profile and exit once he is done. Being in a merchant caravan to the northern region is a perfect way to hide his identity. He just needs to avoid powerful NPCs that can see through his disguise.

The road that the merchant caravan used is a usual roadway but the monsters in the east could be seen as powered up as well. Just like what the forums said, the world has drastically changed as beasts become powerful while some field bosses started roaming away from their territories.

Adrian finally encountered one such field boss that is in the form of a white furred ape monster. It is called the White Sage Ape and is said to command all ape type monsters in a territory that is a bit far from where they are now. They even encountered the White Sage Ape with some injuries and the group started to go into battle mode.

Just as they thought that the White Sage Ape is their only opponent, a loud roar came towards the west as another large monster started to charge through the forest. The large monster was a giant gorilla with red fur that seemed to emanate great power. This monster is another field boss located near the territory of the White Sage Ape called Crimson Asura Gorilla.

It seems that the two monsters are fighting for territory and the group are only caught in the fight between two powerful monsters. The head merchant decided to not intervene in the fight of the two field bosses as they will only incur the wrath of both should they try and fight them. It seems that the head merchant is only thinking of waiting for the right opportunity as Adrian could see the greed in his eyes.

Adrian knew that the head merchant could be greedy because they have a companion here that can take care of one of the field bosses. It was an aloof looking ronin that casually lies down in one of the caravans. The others might be fooled by the ronin's nonchalant attitude, but Adrian could see the power coursing to the other.

Adrian wanted to peek at the samurai's stats, but he knew that the other party would be able to feel that he was getting inspected. The ronin did not bother Adrian as well which is why he did not inconvenience the other. If they were in a fight, then Adrian would definitely look at the status panel of the legendary level NPC.

Even the two escorts that was hired by Ai Fang said that they are wary of that ronin. The two of them are actually some of the most powerful people in this caravan. They were currently hiding in the trees when the fight of the two simian monsters suddenly reached their location.

Adrian did not need to move as Xiaoyan immediately pulled out her fan and numerous talismans suddenly scattered in the air. The talismans then formed into a barrier that blocked the crashing White Sage Ape. When the White Sage Ape saw that it crashed into a human made barrier, it suddenly said something to the Crimson Asura Gorilla which turned its hostility to the caravan.

"Master, that ape…" Sirius reported but Adrian understood what the White Sage Ape to the Crimson Asura Gorilla.

"To think that a monster with Sage as its identifier would actually use schemes that say that we are its backup." Adrian stated as he understood what the White Sage Ape said due to being a high-level summoner.

"Xiaohei and Xiaoyan, prepare for battle. That dumb white ape suddenly said that we are working together with it to take down the Crimson Asura Gorilla." Adrian stated but the two does not easily believe Adrian.

The two did not immediately believe Adrian but they suddenly changed their minds when the Crimson Asura Gorilla looked at them with killing intent. The White Sage Ape looked at the caravan and seemed to say something which infuriated Adrian even more and the former escaped. The White Sage Ape actually passed its enemy to them that did not want to bother their fight.

"Stall the muscle brain while I recover my injuries. Thank you, comrades!" The White Sage Ape stated in its own beast language so that the merchant caravan does not learn of what it did.

"Sirius, Kanlaon and Kimat, hunt down that white ape and shred it to pieces." Adrian commanded as a weakened field boss should be enough for the three of them.

The three soulbounds moved via the shadows courtesy of Sirius. Kanlaon who was resting on Adrian's neck suddenly vanished and the cute looking white cat that was walking near his feet disappeared as well. Xiaohei and Xiaoyan did not notice this as their attention was focused on the sudden field boss charging towards them.

"I might as well contribute to the defense." Adrian stated as he took out some of his talismans as well.

Adrian poured mana into a talisman that had the words 'Great' and 'Protection' written on them and it created another layer of shield to the area where the caravan stopped. Xiaohei and Xiaoyan are shocked because they did not know that Adrian was a Charm Master. They did not know that he was actually a Scribe that is the pinnacle of talisman creating sub job classes.

When the escorts of the caravan saw that there were protections keeping them safe, they immediately took out their bows. It was not uncommon in the eastern continent for people to have the weapon mastery passive skill as they are trained in all types of weapons since young. All of the escorts released their arrows in an attempt to stop the Crimson Asura Gorilla, but it formed a red protective film on its body that made arrows ineffective.

Since the arrows barely did anything to the momentum of the Crimson Asura Gorilla, the monster crashed into the barrier with two of its large fists pounding on it. The strike could be felt as it made the barrier tremble and even those inside felt it. The strength of the Crimson Asura Gorilla is definitely more powerful than the White Sage Ape earlier.New chapters are published on (f)ir(e).nᴇt - novelenglish.net . bin

"Protect the caravan!" The head of the escort guards shouted as they all charged towards the Crimson Asura Gorilla.

Since the cargo will be safe, they knew that they need to defeat the enemy before them or else they will not be able to move from their location. Adrian frowned a little as they would surely get injured which will slow down the transport. He took out one of the legendary talismans that he crafted and injected mana into it.

The rampaging Crimson Asura Gorilla that was thrashing the escorts suddenly felt weak as if all of its strength left its body. It wanted to look for the source of this debuff, but it could not pinpoint the origin. The escorts noticed that the Crimson Asura Gorilla slowed down which made them get lots of breathing room and attacks in.

[You have activated the Debilitating Talisman on the Crimson Asura Gorilla.]

[The Crimson Asura Gorilla has been weakened by 20% for two minutes.]

[10% chance of inflicting a critical strike against the Crimson Asura Gorilla.]

"It's incredibly effective. It could not even detect who use it which is perfect." Adrian thought as he is crying internally because legendary tier talismans are difficult to craft.

Adrian rarely used his talismans in his battle because not all of them are usable in tight situations. Most of the attack talismans that he creates are not single target. He does use defensive talismans a few times to defend against attacks since he lacks defensive spells, but most are not high health shields.

"I should use these Grant Vigor Talismans as well." Adrian stated as he released an equal number of talismans per fighter in the field.

Those that were affected by the Great Vigor Talisman immediately feel that their bodies becoming powerful as strength and stamina returned. They then looked at Xiaoyan with thankful eyes as they know that she was the Charm Master in the group. Xiaoyan understood that they mistook her for the ones providing support and is about to confess but Adrian stopped her.

"Let them believe it as it would be convenient for me." Adrian whispered to her.

"As you wish, great benefactor." Xiaoyan agreed as it was Adrian's command.

The group became more spirited as they faced off against the Crimson Asura Gorilla, but they cannot defeat it easily. Seeing that the group is struggling and about to incur more damages, the aloof ronin suddenly stood up from his bed and walked towards the fight. When the ronin showed himself, the Crimson Asura Gorilla suddenly felt threatened and wanted to escape.

"Ruining my peaceful time and thinking of escaping?!" The ronin stated as he unsheathe his sword and appeared next to the field boss.
