The Empyreal Gem Master

Inside of Alexander’s mind.

A voice echoed out while he stood on a massive Arctic Wolf whose surroundings crackled with lightning, its body leaping towards an army of Beasts of Corruption fearlessly while a Golden Flame Lion of massive size just like it followed close by.

[The Support Ability Gem- Parameter Reinforcement Support, has been added to the Minion King Gem Recipe.]

[The Support Ability Gem- Unruly Elemental Damage Support, has been added to the Minion King Gem Recipe.]

[Parameter Reinforcement Support]:: Any Ability Gem can be supported by this Universal Support Ability Gem. The parameters of all outputs of the linked ability gem are increased by a factor of three.

[Unruly Elemental Damage Support] Any Ability Gem with an output of Elemental Damage can be supported by this Support Ability Gem. The linked Gem allows you to be ever closer to the workings and flow of Energeia, allowing you and any connected Elemental abilities you release to gain the Unstable Elemental Damage quality that causes it to tear across enemies with three times as much effectiveness.

The last two Support Ability Gems that completed the Minion King Gem Recipe.

They seemed simple enough, but their effects were utterly terrifying as the moment the Parameter Reinforcement Support was slotted, the parameters of all connected Gems truly were increased by a factor of three.

The size of the Minions.

Their Speed.

The Vigor.

The Energeia.

All Parameters!

It meant that in the next moment, the already massive Arctic Wolf and Golden Flame Lion shone with a heavy brilliance as they enlarged, their size doubling once more before they increased even further.

"...!"

Those watching from both sides were shocked as, in front of the Walls of Carthage, it seemed like two massive titans had risen.

The two Beasts rose to be larger than 100 Meters as standing on top of the Arctic Wolf, Alexander and the figure of Claire he pulled alongside him looked like small dots of light!

It truly felt like Titans had appeared on the battlefield.

They were three or four times larger than any of the other Beasts as they gave off their heavy pressures, and things rose another octave when the tendrils of lighting crackling around them like an endless storm…began to be tainted with an unstable crimson hue as its bolts became three times as thicker.

Effectively, the storm of lightning around them became even bigger and posed an even greater threat, and with their size expanding…its area of effect reached the initial ring of the Tide of Beasts they were creeping towards.

What occurred next was imprinted in the minds of all who lived to tell the tale.

The periphery of the lightning crashed down as the Three and Two-Link Beasts of Corruption caught in it…had their bodies instantly pulverized.

Their fur, meat, and bones…anything that made them was struck with unstable and powerful lightning that actually destroyed everything about them- the only thing left behind being the dazzling Gems they had socketed!

And since the two beasts were lunging forward with great speed that didn’t match their humongous bodies, the range of their storm rapidly covered any nearby Beasts in the tide as they even reached the Tier 4 Beasts that were leading the packs.

And terribly, anything below Tier 4…was eradicated instantly.

The damage was too high.

The difference in terms of power that was achieved after so many support Gems were stacked on…was something that none of those present on the battlefield fully understood!

It was akin to taking an attack that dealt the numerical damage of 10 and multiplying it once, then multiplying it again, and again, and then adding unstable elemental damage on top of it all that was three times as effective.

It was something too obscene as even without any active attacks from his Minions, just the effect of Lightning Grounds surrounding their bodies alone eradicated all enemies they came across.

Shock gripped the Gem Masters behind him.

Fear gripped the hearts of the beast tide that was surging in as those in the middle of it or those further back paused- their bodies innately feeling a sense of terror as they moved backwards!

Terror!

This was what the Beasts of Corruption actually felt.

Those who felt the intensity and power portrayed by the Titans ahead of them.

As for the Beasts who actually faced it?

BOOOM!

The Tier 4 Beasts bellowed out in shock and horror as their heavy defenses were obliterated, grievous injuries instantly echoing out across their bodies as they scrambled every ounce of their life force to retreat out of the storm of lightning.

The golden haired Gem Master- the brother of Branch Leader Neiman who appeared above a unique floating Aerial Beast showed a look of anger and shock as even he flew back.

But would it be so easy?

Filled with continued understanding of just what power he held.

Just what status he had compared to others Gem Masters…Alexander moved forward relentlessly as his eyes flashed.

And from behind any retreating Tier 4 Beasts and even the Galanis Bloodline Gem Master, a glacial wall of ice erupted that either sought to freeze their figures or push them towards him and his titanic minions!

"OOOH!"

The Tier 4 Ascendant Galanis Gem Master screamed out as purple flames rose around him, breaking apart ice surging from behind and lightning booming ahead.

It was a worthy effort, but Alexander wasn’t even looking at him.

He looked at the Tier 4 Beasts struggling to survive under the onslaught of just the Lightning Grounds as he flashed towards them, leaving Claire on top of the Arctic Wolf as she shot out blasts of lightning in the distance.

The Flame Hounds.

The Flame Crows.

The Water Bison.

To him, they were all fantastical appetizers he needed to fill the rest of his Socketed Gems!

He only had two minions bound in his Minion King Gem Recipe, and in this recipe…there were seven Gems in totality.

There were 5 spots to bind Minions as the moment he did so, they would be transformed into terrifying titans that would cause even the most seasoned Gem Master to pause!
