Reincarnated With A Glitched System: Why Is My MP Not Running Out?-Chapter 656 An Useful Tank & Strengthening The Shield
-----
The Coral Golem roared as it was summoned. The summon immediately stepping forward and utilizing his enormous arms to break through the army of Fishmen. His arms were so strong and powerful that most of the Fishmen were sent flying into the air, none of them were actually able to stand their ground against the Coral Golem!
CLAAASH! CLAAASH! CRAAASH!
"Gryyshieeeeh!"
"Gagaakkh?!"
"Gygyaaaahkh!"
The fishmen were being stopped from their tracks, even the Fishman Commander couldn't even confront the Coral Golem directly, hiding behind his underlings. A Giant Warrior Crab, of over three meters was his mount, but the crab could only tank the hits, its pincers incapable of piercing through the Golem, even less when I utilized [Iron Defenses] on it!
Funnily enough, it also works with the Summoned Golem! Sapphire is really an amazing addition to the team with her many abilities and usefulness.
"Now, everyone!" I commanded.
My friends immediately jumped into battle. Attacking the distracted Fishmen one after the other. Zack unleashed a storm of thunderous and storming slicing attacks using his axe, devastating his surroundings, and killing several fishmen at once.
Aquarina summoned dozens of three-meter-long Ice Spears using her magic and pierced the Fishmen to death. Celeste bombarded them with shadow bullets and cursed them to make them slower, and Celica supported us with another tank in her Mister Teddy on his Beast Form, offering even more support.
Meanwhile, Mist offered healing, buffs, and her magic arrows from afar, hitting the head of the Commander and making him confused of where that attack came from, which I took the opportunity of!
FLASH!
"GRYKAH?!"
I emerged right behind the Fishman Commander, his big fishy eyes opening wide as it saw my Sword, Scarlet, unleashing lightning fiercely and piercing through his neck, beheading him!
SLAAAAAASH!
CRAAASH!
The lightning of my attack was as bit too much though, which ended unleashing a shockwave that killed his mount in the process, electrifying the Giant Crab until it was boiled alive…
BAAAM!
The crab fell to the floor, crushing the body of its rider on the way. The battle was over in less than ten minutes as everyone worked well coordinated.
Ding!

-----
[Restoration: Lv1]
Spend large quantities of Mana to restore a target's body and health by a small amount, which increases by 10% with each Skill Level.
When used on summons, restoration power is enhanced by an additional +30%.
-----
Oooh, Sapphire learned a new Skill upon leveling up! Nice. Come t think of it, I should really give her some materials to absorb, and Scarlet too! How about some Sea Snake Bones, Fangs, or Scales? I think those are compatible.
"Phew, that was a good warm up! How's everyone handling it?"
"We're fine." Zack said carefreely. "That can't even be considered warm up, it was way too easy."
"But your golem's crumbling!" Said Celica, feeling worried.
"My healing doesn't work either. Is this a new familiar of yours, Sylphy?" Wondered Mist.
"Oh no, it is a special summon that comes from this shield I found." I said. "It seems that it can be summoned once it dies, but the cooldown is a whole hour… Let's try another spell: [Restoration]!"
I channeled the power of Sapphire into my hands, utilizing her skills as if they were mine, which was the basic power that other System Seeds granted to me through my Familiars, effectively allowing me to collect and obtain more skills through my own familiars.
FLAAASH!
A blue light reached the Coral Golem, which was crumbling down by all the damage it took. Suddenly, most of its rubble was restored, moving back to where it was. As I put more Mana into it, it final reached the restoration limit. Its total HP now was around 70%. I guess I cannot really restore him to 100%, but this makes him last longer, he probably can last another two more fights before completely crumbling.
"GRUOOH!"
The Coral Golem celebrated its restoration, raising its enormous arms. It still had many cracks around its body, and half its face was missing, but it was still up for another fight.
"Having this tank really makes things quicker! Usually tanking is really dangerous, especially with our lack of stronger armor and defenses. And we are all smaller in size, so we can't tank really well either." Sighed Celeste. "This guy over here compensates our lack of a proper tank quite well."
"I agree, it was super easy now!" Aquarina said. "Alright, where should we go now, Sylphy?" Aquarina wondered.
"Here! Follow me!" I commanded Furoh who was my ride, and we set off across the corridors.
While waiting for the next wave of monsters, I quickly took out several materials and feed them to Scarlet and Sapphire. Aquarina seemed confused about what was I doing but seemed amazed as the items absorbed the materials and slowly grew stronger.
Ding!
[Sapphire] has absorbed [Water Spirit Stone] x1, [Coral Golem Fragment] x1, [Sea Trident Fragment] x1, [Fire Spirit Stone] x1, [Sea Snake Fang] x1, [Sea Snake Scale] x1, [Coral Tree Branch] x1, and [Aquarius Crystal] x1!]

[Sapphire] learned the [Sea Snake Protection: Lv1] Skill!]
[Sapphire] cannot gain more power from these materials!]
Ooh, Sapphire acquired a lot of bonus stats and even two new Skills! This is already great. It makes me want even more System Seed-having weapons…
