Strongest Hammer God novel Chapter 24

Chapter 24: Chapter 24 – Tar Golem

There was a gigantic "blob" of tar surrounded by withering trees.

However, calling it a blob did not do it justice.

The blob itself was around three meters in diameter, but there were countless long and black tendrils coming out of it.

The black tendrils stretched for almost five meters, and they split into smaller tendrils at the end.

The smaller tendrils took hold of the trees in the surroundings, and Kyle could see the trees becoming black and brittle.

From time to time, some of the tendrils grabbed leafy branches and shoved them into holes that opened in the blob.

The grass in the surroundings was also withering at a visible rate.

'The fuck is that thing?! I'm not eating that!' Kyle thought.

Samson and Nervon were charging at the gigantic ball of tar.

Nervon had already taken out his shield.

"Come here, you disgusting piece of shit!" Nervon shouted as he rammed his shield into the gigantic blob.

Kyle's eyes widened when he saw the blob rolling over.

'Did that guy just tip that thing over with his charge?!' he thought.

The next moment, all the tendrils shot at Nervon, but they were cut apart in an instant.

Samson had taken out his polearm, and he stood behind Nervon, cutting the tendrils going past the big shield.

BANG!

Nervon rammed the thing again, pushing it further away.

The Tar Golem was surprisingly viscous. One would think that Nervon would just sink into the tar, but that wasn't the case, apparently.

The next moment, Kyle saw an arrow piercing the blob.

BOOOM!

Kyle watched with widened eyes as the arrow exploded, tar scattering across the surroundings.

Naturally, it was Lancel who had shot the arrow.

Then, the young Fennek appeared beside the parts, two rapiers in his hands.

The rapiers started to burn, and Fennek rammed them into the blobs of tar.

'They're turning into stone!' Kyle thought as he saw the blobs hardening. 'Wait, this is tar, right? I think it is. Does tar even solidify when burned?'

Kyle shook his head. 'Stop trying to assign real-world physics to fantasy land!'

At the same time, he noticed the tentacles, which had been cut off by Samson, turning into smaller blobs before slowly slithering back to the big ball.

'Ah! You can only kill this thing if you denature its composition! Otherwise, it just gathers again!'

Sadly, Kyle missed the next part of the battle since he had to heave due to the horrible smell.

He only heard the sounds of battle while he was vomiting and coughing.

After around two minutes, the smell became a bit weaker, and Kyle managed to look at the battle again.

'There's still so much left?!' he thought in shock.

The ground was littered with black stones, but the ball of tar had barely shrunk.

The intensity of the fight hadn't diminished at all!

Nervon kept ramming the Tar Golem with his shield, keeping its attention on him.

Samson kept defending Nervon's back.

Lancel kept shooting explosive arrows.

Fennek was busy burning the individual blobs.

Tarren attacked the blob from time to time, cutting parts off, which Fennek turned to stone.

Everyone had their job.

'How can they keep fighting in this horrible stench?!' Kyle thought, resisting the urge to vomit again.
