Omega Summoner

"We cannot freeze it. If lowering the temperature is not the answer, then we need to increase it. Kanlaon!" Adrian stated.

Kanlaon's red orb floating around him suddenly glowed in a fiery red and orange color. He then dropped this orb into the water, and it evaporated the water immediately. It is effective but the area that the flame orb can evaporate is extremely limited.

"I need to increase the area of power." Adrian muttered to which Tina raised her concern.

"I can increase it Champion Equinox. Our blood is of closer to the Titan of the Sun which is why we are not affected by the cold as much. Use our blood to increase the potency of the heat." Tina stated as she cut her palm.

Adrian took out a paper from his inventory and dipped his brush on Tina's blood. He used his talents as a scribe to write Enhance, Spread and Heat on the paper. Fortunately, he succeeded immediately but the Guardian of the Flooded Spring will not let them easily accomplish what they are thinking.

Tino noticed this and slashed his palm as well and directly touched the flame orb that is emitting heat. When Tino's blood touched the Flame Orb, the heat it emitted became more intense. The heat being emitted made the incoming water evaporate much faster, but the area of effect has yet to increase.

The Guardian of the Flooded Spring cannot let the intruders in its domain do what they please. It was instructed to drown its opponents in water but the heat that the flame orb emits cannot be extinguished. It is now experiencing an error in its orders as it has yet to encounter enemies like them. It has been idle for a number of centuries.

The Guardian of the Flooded Spring can only execute the only command given to it. It needs to drown the trespassers on its domain. As a result of the error in fully complying the command, it can only control the water in in the entire floating island. Due to this immense strain, the clear core started to have some cracks as the Guardian of the Flooded Spring was not created to control the entire water body in the second floating island.

Adrian already finished with finalizing the talisman and immediately shot it towards the flame orb. Adrian then issued a command to Sirius that they need to hide in the shadow realm. Sirius pulled Adrian, Tino, Tina, and Dodu inside the shadow realm while Kanlaon exerted his control of the fire element.

The flame orb suddenly increased in size and area of effect to the point that it tripled in size. It now looked like a miniature sun that came down on the word. Kanlaon emitted a piercing dragon roar as he used everything that he can muster when it comes to heat.

The Guardian of the Flooded Spring's core could not handle the intense heat and control of the entire water body in the second floating island. Due to the clash of the fire elemental energy and water elemental energy, a large steam explosion ensued that destroyed the core of the Guardian of the Flooded Spring.

Kanlaon did not get unscathed as he lost 75% of his health as a result of the steam explosion. When Adrian's group left the shadow realm, they are greeted by a floating island without a single drop of water. Kanlaon also having great damage on his body that even his scales cracked from the clash of elemental energies.

"Greater Seal: Dodu!"

"Greater Summon: Saena!"

Adrian sealed Dodu and summoned Saena to treat Kanlaon's wounds. Adrian wanted Dodu to absorb the damage that Kanlaon will get from the attack of the Guardian of the Flooded Spring, but it was magical in nature. Dodu is an important asset when it comes to blocking physical attacks which is why he does not want it to die.

Recovering from death is about three hours with the level that Adrian's soulbounds have. It would not be wise if a golem that relied in physical attacks were to show up once again. Saena immediately started to heal Kanlaon and the path to the next floating island started to appear when Adrian got the notification.

[You have defeated the Guardian of the Flooded Spring.]

[You have received the Flooded Crystal.]

A water bridge suddenly appeared out of nowhere and led to the next floating island. Seeing that the wounds on the palm of the twin giants have yet to close, Adrian instructed Saena to treat them as well. But it was a strange sight to Adrian that the twin giant's wound did not close.

"Why did your wound not close? I remember that you two did not cut too deep." Adrian asked.

The twin giants looked at each other as if debating whether to tell the truth or not. In the end, they released a sigh and decided to spill a secret that they must never easily tell anyone.

"Actually, this is a secret of our race, but Champion Equinox asked. We need to be honest to you in order for you to not blame yourself if something were to happen to us." Tina stated.

"The body of giants that are closer to our ancestor are special in that we are extremely durable. We will not bleed if we do not choose to bleed which means even sharp swords cannot cut us." Tino started the explanation.

"In return, we can will our bodies to also be easily cut but we cannot easily heal from the cut wound. Our blood is special since it has properties that can increase fire and light elemental energies. It is also one of the reasons why angels hunted our kind before when they learned that our blood is a valuable resource but that special blood is only inherited by certain individuals." Tina added.

"Then both of you being with me must not be due to both of you being the best." Adrian stated to which the two nodded.

"Fine but please do not bleed for me once again. We are here to investigate and know our limits in exploration. We are not here to die.." Adrian stated.
