Solar Ascension-Chapter 148: Unnamed

BOOM!

The sound of an explosion rang out, and the next second, the golem that had lunged towards towards Nox was sent flying back.

Rhett watched as the creature crumbled before slowly turning towards Nox, who had his arm stretched out and his hand was in a fist.

To Rhett’s surprise, the fist was covered in a transparent gauntlet that produced a golden glow.

He unclenched his fist and the transparent gauntlet reshaped itself, turning into thin lines of SE which ran up his arm before disappearing.

"That worked," Nox said quietly, more to himself than anyone else.

The ground shook violently as several larger golems began pulling themselves up from the lava, their bodies towering over the two as they seemed to be looking down on them.

Rhett snapped out of his daze and raised his shield just in time to intercept a barrage of molten projectiles. The impact forced him back, causing him to slide but he didn’t lose his balance.

"Friend," he said slowly turning to Nox who was still sat, "if you are finished meditating, now would be an excellent moment to rejoin the battle."

Nox glanced at the incoming wave, then at the timer hovering above the core.

[Time remaining: 00:10:11]

"...Yeah," he replied, rolling his shoulder as he slowly stood up, "I think I’m good now."

He then stepped forward and Rhett felt a sudden pressure coming from Nox.

It was subtle, but to someone like him who had forcefully trained himself in SE control, it was unmistakable.

Nox’s presence had changed, his energy was no longer spread throughout his body in an overflowing manner....well, not that it was in the first place.

But now it was more.... Dense.

The nearest golem started charging charged towards them but none of the two panicked, instead, Nox just powered up his boots and the next second, he was gone.

Rhett, on the other hand, just tapped the center of his chest just where his core was and a golden light immediately enveloped him.

Nox, on the other hand, reappeared above the first giant golem fraction of a second later with fist cocked back, the transparent golden gauntlet forming again in an instant and then,

BOOM!

The golems entire upper body soon crumbled to rubble, with its lower body falling into the stream of lava.

Nox smiled a bit at the result as he felt the SE pull back without the least bit of waste. Now that he thought about it, he felt it was similar to Calewin’s and Devon’s abilities.

But instead of storing his SE for a timed release, this ability let him reinforce himself without even the tinest bit of waste.

Though, right now, it took his active focus to do it, hence the reason he hadn’t fully manifested the golden knight just yet....Rhett though.

BOOM!

Nox turned to the side, noticing that Rhett was standing there with a golden sword on his shoulders and multiple fallen golems.

"I believe dealing with them one at a time wastes too much of our energy, friend," He said, turning to Nox, in his full golden knight form.

"Right," Nox nodded and turned towards the incoming wave, "let’s end this fast."

As if in response to their words, the lava around them started bubbling again and this time, even more golems started stepping out of it.

There were small fast ones, large ones, and even the ones that could shape the lava into anything they wanted.

But instead of panic, Nox just smiled a bit, resummoned both the gauntlet and Morphos before launching himself in the midst of the wave.

Time slowed down again, for him and the moment it resumed its normal flow, the golems collapsed one after another, their bodies disintegrating before they even hit the ground.

Nox twisted midair, landed, and swept Morphos in a wide arc causing a trail of golden SE to tear through the remaining cluster, slicing cleanly through stone and lava alike.

".. incredible," Rhett muttered as he looked
