Lord of the Time: I Can Reincarnate Infinitely

Chapter 86: 86: Caleb's Trick



Just like that, Caleb and Rina fought with the golem side by side. Rina proved to be a valuable teammate, as she had good control of the flow of the battle. Caleb, on the other hand, was the one with the role of killing the golem because between the two of them. He was the one who could cause significant damage due to his taboo energy.

The battle had been going on for five minutes already and half of his taboo energy reserves had been consumed from all the attacks that he used. With Rina's help, who kept taking the aggro, he managed to land slashes and thrusts, impaling and cutting the golem in random spots.

He blasted the golem's head, torso, chest, shoulders, arms, and even its thigh. However, the core was nowhere to be found. Caleb began to think that the golems might not be the same golems that he knew from the games.

Fortunately, every time they caused a wound to the golem. Black smoke would appear every time it regenerated...

Thinking of this, Caleb watched as Rina used her sword to cut down the finger of the golem after it attempted to crush her under its massive hands. 'What to do? Should I just wait for it to explode from overheating?'

He knew that it was wishful thinking. He was already exhausted from all the intense movements that he performed. To make it worse, they are under the constant pressure of the golem's gravity, which hinders their movements and causes them to spend more energy resisting it.

"Johan, what now? I can't keep doing this any longer."

Rina leaped back and successfully dodged the trampling of the maddened golem. She looked at the golem with frustration. She knew that they would fall into exhaustion even before he could make them explode. After all, even though Johan could damage the golem. She knew that his attacks consumed a lot of energy. The situation wasn't optimistic, and they were at a disadvantage when it came to a battle of attrition.

"What to do? We can't do anything but to do our best!" Gritting his teeth, Caleb flicked his fingers as he aimed three coin-size rocks at the chest of the golems.

The rocks turned into streaks of violet light in his eyes and hit the spot he targeted one after the other. "Bullseye," Caleb said.

An intense green light escaped from the three small holes caused by his attack. Then he saw a green, human-sized head crystal through the gaps. Yet, the crystal ball rotated furiously and disappeared.

"That's the core, right!?" Rina exclaimed. Although she didn't know what the core looked like. It didn't prevent her from guessing, since it was too obvious.

Caleb nodded with a ponderous expression.

'Hmmm... I already attacked its chest earlier, but there was no green light. Coupled with the fact that it disappeared after its brief appearance... Does that mean... Damn it! The core could be anywhere inside the golem's body!'

If that was true. It was more troublesome than he initially thought. And it also explains why the core was nowhere to be found after attacking almost every inch of the space of its body!

A movable core means that the golem's vital component is not fixed in one location. It can shift within the golem's body, making it difficult to pinpoint and target. This unpredictability makes precise strikes or attacks challenging.

Caleb knew that the damned golem could potentially use its movable core to protect itself. If it detects an incoming threat, it might reposition the core to shield it from harm. This defensive capability would require attackers to constantly adapt their strategies.

'Damn it! Goddamn it! This fuck is really troublesome!'

How are they supposed to defeat such a thing? Not to mention, if he was already tired... How about Rina, who was literally doing her best to buy time for them?

If the core can move, pair it with the golem's enhanced ability to regenerate or repair damaged areas. It could redirect resources to the injured parts and move the core away from harm, making it challenging to disable the golem permanently.

With a movable core, the golem could have multiple attack vectors. It might launch attacks from different parts of its body, further complicating efforts to defend against or evade these attacks. Of course, this one isn't much of a trouble since the golem wasn't smart enough to do such things. The only thing it did from. the very start was to throw punches and simple kicks.

"Rina, I have a plan... Attack when the core reappears again!" Taking a deep breath, Caleb launched multiple stones without stopping. How did he have so many small stones in him? Well, it can be said that he filled one of the pockets of his back with it.

His relentless attacks made a sieve out of the golems. Streaks of violet rays appeared... Hitting the golem from head to toe. Caleb was like a rifle with the Peebles replacing the role of bullets. However, the stones weren't enough to penetrate the golem thoroughly. It could only reach two to three inches. But it was enough...

Caleb gritted his teeth. His fingers were in pain, but he didn't stop even after his fingers had been covered with his blood.

He couldn't count how many flicks he had done. But he could feel his taboo energy bottomed out with such a frequency of attacks.

His decision paid off, though. The body of the golem was filled with holes and black smoke, along with a green light on the bottom of its stomach. "Now!"

Rina, who was stupefied by Caleb's trick, woke up from her daze and subconsciously jumped towards the green core. She slashed it three times before cracks started to form. Then she followed it with another four attacks. The green, bright crystal shattered like a glass.

Caleb watched intently as he saw the golem's yellow eyes grow dimmer. A few seconds later, it stood motionless. Its arms fell to the ground, and it began to collapse. Its head imploded, and then, one by one, the parts of its body crumbled. From its arms, torso, and middle section.

Caleb and Rina breathed a sigh of relief and plopped directly to the ground. They looked at each other and smiled. "We won."

However, they knew the day hadn't ended yet. They are safe, but the other members are still currently fighting for their lives.
