Eldritch Creature's Guide-Chapter 120 Bronze-Tier

Once they had settled in, Samiel decided to start practicing immediately by rotating the Nuclear Void Mana Control Method, which he had learned from his master, Hall Master of Hall of Kadath Menuhyutt Faulhaber. When he began to sense the Mana in his body circling, he took out several Silver-Tier Mana Crystals and began draining them at incredible speed within seconds.

As he continued to drain one Mana Crystal after another, he soon crossed the line of the fifty Silver-Tier Mana Crystals consumed, as he felt that the effect of increasing the absorption rate was constantly increasing as he used the Nuclear Void Mana Control Method to grow the effect of the absorption rate.

The Mana Crystal consumption rate was astronomical and would probably send anyone else bankrupt from the sheer number of the Mana Crystals he consumed. For example, just the amount he used for start, the fifty Silver-Tier Mana Crystals, could technically allow about 35 to 40 Level 25 Steel-Tier individuals to break through to the Bronze-Tier.

Samiel continued in this way for several minutes until he reached a certain moment when he sensed that his Mana was automatically converting itself and that he had crossed the border, officially reaching the Level 26 Bronze-Tier.

He was stuck at the peak of the Steel-Tier Level 25 for a very long time, and right now, he finally reached the Bronze-Tier and entered a whole new level of his existence. With his newfound power, he was far more confident in the upcoming mess that was starting on the 8th Floor.

[User Samiel Zentaur has become a Bronze-Tier Professional.]

After Samiel reached Level 26, he didn't stop there, but he continued absorbing one Mana Crystal after another; in the end he still had over 700 Silver-Tier Mana Crystal. One tremendous advantage of being an Eldritch Creature, he could technically right now reach even a Silver-Tier if he had enough resources.

[User Samiel Zentaur has reached Level 27.]

He was like a black hole that kept devouring all Mana Crystals that were available to him; after consuming another hundred of them, he Leveled Up once more and reached Level 27 as he continued in the process.

[User Samiel Zentaur has reached Level 28.]

When he reached Level 28, he was left only with something around 500 Silver-Tier Mana Crystals. Deciding that he could still Level Up, mainly because he got a good grasp on his own power, and even if his Level increased several times over, it wouldn't cause him any trouble in the future.

Thus he continued operating the Nuclear Void Mana Control Method as he drained the Silver-Tier Mana Crystals in tens at lightning speed and soon enough, he heard and saw the remaining two notifications from the Akashic Records as he reached Level 30.

[User Samiel Zentaur has reached Level 29.]

[User Samiel Zentaur has reached Level 30.]

[Proficiency with the skill Nuclear Void Mana Control Method has been increased by 1%.]

On top of everything, he also got an increasement in proficiency with the Nuclear Void Mana Control Method by 5%, which was a tremendous increase. Nuclear Void Mana Control Method was one of the highest-graded Mana Control Methods and even a growth of 1% of its proficiency was something to celebrate.

Of course, after he reached the Bronze-Tier, Samiel now found himself more powerful than ever. Reaching a new higher Tier meant an overall increasement in all abilities and attributes, and right now, as a Level 30 Necromancer with a Unique Class Grand Necromancer, he could control 450 Undeads overall at the same time.

Of course, now that he reached the Bronze-Tier, it meant he could officially cast the Intermediate Magic, meaning the 4th Level Spells and 5th Level Spells, something that he had waited for, for a very long time already.

The Intermediate Magic was far more destructive and powerful compared to the Basic Magic, and with Samiel having practically a ton of theoretical knowledge over the Intermediate Magic, he could probably cast the 4th Level Spells within only a few hours after he broke through. With the Intermediate Magic under his belt, his combat prowess would soar to new heights once more.

After Samiel finished the process of absorption, he was left with something under the 100 Silver-Tier Mana Crystals, but that was okey because the effect of the consumption was totally worth it. Now, when he used the Architect Ability, he realized that he had approximately a 20% chance to win against the Ork Warrior he noticed in the pub part of the Inn.

From the previous 3,49% it was a great improvement, really. That weren't that positive numbers, but Samiel saw them in a positive way. Because this was the first time he encountered someone in a similar Tier, and from what he saw, even of similar age, who could pose a relative threat to him, Samiel was effortlessly able to discern the age of the Ork to be something around 40.

Though that only made him wonder because usually, Orks never really left their comfort zone or rather, they remained with their Tribe or Clan for the rest of their lives; they would never left to wander the Cosmos alone. In spite of everything, one could state that they were social creatures, living and dying with their Tribes and Clans.

Only in very rare cases such things happened because even the rogues who were exiled would typically gang together, so they had a better success rate at their continuous survival. Still, this was for the first time since Samiel encountered someone who could pose a threat to him.

According to the Architect's calculations, the chances of Samiel being around the same Level as the Ork Warrior would be around 52% to 64%. However, more data are needed for better calculations and precision.

Of course, Samiel knew that he would get a tremendous advantage when he reached Legendary, where he could unlock the majority of the potential of the Azathoth's blood and undergo first racial awakened as Eldritch Creature and get rid of his human part, which was right now his biggest weakness.

"Have you finished?"

Samiel then heard Yvraine's voice as it woke him up from his trance of training. He then cracked his neck, as he was in the same position for more than one hour, without moving even a millimeter, and the meditation position wasn't exactly the most comfortable one for him to sit unmoving for a long period of time.

"Yes... finally, I have reached the Bronze-Tier, which would mean that in terms of raw power, I would probably be able to level up some towns without any problems."

In response to Yvraine's question, Samiel stood up and sat down on one of the beds, one that was clearly his, since Yvraine already had the second bed occupied by herself. As he sat down on the bed, Samiel noticed that it was very soft and fluffy, overall very comfortable to lie on.

The last time he had viewed his Record was on the 5th Floor or so; therefore, he still felt some sense of curiosity regarding what the changes were that had been made to the Record since he was Tiering-up, but was unaware that the last time he viewed his Record was already relatively long ago.

Therefore, he felt a sense of curiosity about the changes made to the Record by Tiering-up and overall his growth since the 5th Floor, because that was already around one year and something ago.

Samiel then observed his Record to see the changes after he reached the Bronze-Tier, of course aside from the most notable change in his Level, which was now already Level 30 and becoming the Bronze-Tier, he also goes increasement in countless of his masteries and even in his Classes.

Right now, he would need to focus a bit on his Magic and other aspects of his arsenal, and only then would they be heading out to complete the mission from The Guild. After he reached the Bronze-Tier, the success rate of the upcoming rate was already 110%, not talking about the fact even if the Silver-Tier Professional took the "Super Soldier Serum", he would be able to kill him with ease.

Another thing on his schedule would be to create more Undeads, as right now he had around 370 of them, but with his current Level and mental capabilities, he could simultaneously control 450 Undeads at the same time.

This number was already bordering on the level of a smaller army, technically speaking. Though if he coupled it with the Undeads that Ashimer controlled, then it was already something little above one thousand. Considering that he had just right now reached the Bronze, it was a staggering number.

Though for the past time, the one problematic thing he noticed was the fact that the mass-creation of Silver-Tier Undeads was night impossible for him. As it seemed, it required too many resources and especially too many Silver-Tier Mana Crystals and base material, meaning corpses, so Samiel had to settle with the Bronze-Tier standard for his Undeads.

Though right now, if Necromancers around the Cosmos heard him, they would get a heart attack because controlling 450 Bronze-Tier was a very hard task even for an average Gold-Tier Necromancer, typically only Peak Gold-Tier Necromancers would control such a large number of relatively high-tiered Undeads.

"We would be waiting for one week before departing for the Raid Mission from The Guild. I need to properly adjust myself towards the Bronze-Tier and elevate some of my capabilities to that, not to mention, there are many Undeads that need to be crafted."

In response, Samiel decided that one week should be more than enough time for him to complete all the things that he needed to complete in that time period. After that period of time, he would, together with Yvraine, undertake some mission from The Guild and would be going to the Raid Mission.

"I still don't get why you bother personally crafting every one of your Undeads."

Yvriaine complained to Samiel because the procedure of crafting of several tens of Undeads would take several days with Samiel's lazy tempo, as he had other things to do aside from crafting Undeads.

If not, then he would need maximally two or three hours to finish that, but alas, he had some time to spar, and working too fast would be detrimental because he could make some mistakes, which would result in the creation of lousy Undeads.

Samiel took great pride in the quality of his Undeads, as any other proper Necromancer would, but he took it on an entirely different level. As he was handcrafting most of his Undeads personally through the Undead Creation, all of them were pinnacle among their grade.

"Because of the quality. The Undeads I am controlling are always the strongest, so I am focusing on the quality, and to do that, I need to create each one individually. If I was going through the route of average spells, then the Undeads would maximally peak Steel-Tier, with little to no potential to reach even the Bronze-Tier."

Samiel explained the situation to Yvraine, contrary to Ashimer, who was using basically standard Undeads who were Steel-Tier ranging from various lower Levels of the Steel-Tier to the peak of the Steel-Tier. They didn't have much potential and would probably remain in the same Tier for their whole existence until they were destroyed or used for any other purpose.

Samiel planned to have his Undeads, respectively, those which he directly personally controlled as the core of his Undead Army, basically the most elite ones, which would be acting as the heavy hitters.

Then the Undeads controlled by Ashimer and his future Generals would be the standard soldiers, be it through their average Tiers and even their species because most of them are just Lesser Undeads. For that, he needed to create more special Undeads, and he also planned on the 8th Floor, as she still had some Soul Force Crystals.

This time Samiel wanted to create a Lich, and not an ordinary but preferably an Elder Lich, which was Advanced Undead, but for that, he needed additional resources, which he lacked. More specifically, he needed the corpse of a very powerful Magic Caster to act as the base, preferably at least two of such corpses.

"Whatever, at least we have some more opportunity to explore the city."

Yvraine then clapped her hands happily when she thought about exploring the Goldtooth, which was one of the, if not the largest, fortress city on the 8th Floor that was built by demons. Even though this was a city built by demons, it was somewhat romantic.

That medieval atmosphere, a bit different from what Samiel saw at the Zephystrand City, was indeed creating a spectacle, and at the same time, he was a bit surprised that the demons were capable of building such cities.

"We can... they should have some good restaurants. I am curious about the local cuisine."

Samiel then stated as he started to do his own things, while Yvriane remained bored and seeing that her companion was working so hard on increasing his power, she decided to follow his example and started training.

She still had some weaknesses, especially when it came to Level 3 Ultimate Ability Metamagic. Even though she had learned how to incorporate it into her combat style, it still had many shortcomings; there were many things to work on and many things to master.
