"So this is a boss monster, cheating doesn't really allow you tell how powerful one is" Steve commented as he continued staring at the massive beast.
[I see, you killed Ut Khun, a human running on borrowed power] the frost giant said as snow and ice began to cover the area again.
Even within his suit which offered near perfect protection from cold or heat, he could still feel the cold.
"Thanks for noticing, I will need to harvest your materials as well soon" Steve replied before vanishing from his spot.
*Clang*
Swords clashed before Steve was sent flying back, repositioning himself in the air, Steve landed on his feet as he prepared for the incoming attack.
*Clang*
A second clash as Steve was pushed back but quickly began to input more mana into his suit as he felt even more power flow into his body.
[I see, but it makes no difference] The frost Giant said as it stuck out again.
Jumping out of the way, Steve quickly molded the blade into a pair of knuckle dusters as he punched out.
He may be the villian here… At least in the Frost Giant's book, he was but he didn't plan to kill it quickly, he needed to test his new suit.
With a single jab to the face, the creature was sent flying but Steve didn't let up, adding in more mana to his suit, he vanished from his spot.
Snow flew into the air as craters were formed but Steve still didn't let up,
"You guys locked me in here for two months!, two fucking months!, I ate fucking sand in my first week here" Steve shouted as he continued hitting the long dead Frost Giant.
[My Lord!] a voice called out
*Bam!!*
[My Lord!]
*Bam!*
[My Lord!!] The voice called again but much louder
"What?!!" Steve answered as he turned to see the First standing and looking at him.
[Its dead, my lord] First answered while pointing at the bloody mess that was in the crater.
"Shit!" he cussed as he finally moved away from the crater.
"Harvest it and do the same to the others" he ordered as he left to return to his truck.
He had overdone it.
Returning back to the truck, he didn't exactly know how to feel. He couldn't lie that he had gained a lot within this dungeon but he was still locked in here.
If not for the Automata, he couldn't even sleep properly, he barely ate anything during his first few weeks. There wasn't even anything to eat, the lava was too hot for any other thing other than an elemental to survive there.
The only other beings were the Ut Jin but they almost never left their base. He wasn't stupid to attack them while they were together, the one he had attacked nearly killed him.
Turns out that all this time had affected him much more than he thought. Time passed and before he knew it, another pile of materials were ready. As he suspected from beating up the Frost Giant boss, they were much more durable than the Ut Jin.
Their skin radiated an unnatural level of cold even while dead. The Ut Jin didn't have much of a durable body but their skin radiated the same level of heat.
Turning to the last biome within the gate, he wondered what he would meet there. It was the most unknown area in this gate and the one place, he didn't know anything about.
