Capítulo 1100: Troublesome Gordons Duo 2.

After saying that, both of them began channeling mana into their mana Pools. Unlike Alec, they didn't possess space pouches, meaning their golems still resided within their mana pools.

While this was the default resting place for newly created golems, it became inefficient once a mage controlled multiple Golems, at that point, acquiring a space pouch was far more practical.

Almost instantly, runes formed above them, glowing faintly before stabilizing, as a portal opened.

From Arthur's side emerged a silver-colored golem, its form resembling a decorative suit of chainmail armor mounted for display, only now reinforced with an additional layer of polished silver plating.

On Brandon's side, a wooden treant appeared, it stood tall, its build far more muscular than a typical treant, though its body was entirely wood, parts of it had naturally formed into distinct shapes, a belt around its waist and guards around its hands that seems to have been crafted from a darker shade of timber.

Even Brandon didn't fully understand why his golem had taken on such a form, but after its evolution, it had chosen this configuration.

The darker wood wrapped around its waist like a belt-like short covering, while its hands bore what looked like reinforced wooden gauntlets, though it towered over Brandon, yet that didn't hinder their ability to fight in sync.

"Merge!" Arthur called out, as his golem's body instantly disassembled into countless fragments, each piece shooting toward him.

In the blink of an eye, they enveloped him completely—layer by layer—until he stood clad in full silver armor, exuding the presence of a knight.

"Ready!" Brandon asked, noticing that both Fang and Sojin had reappeared and were already closing in, their blades nearing lethal range.

"Yes," Arthur responded, before activating a spell he had been casting silently

While Sojin unleashed Shadow Lock—aiming to bind Arthur, who was charging low and fast with blade-like spikes extending from his forearms—Brandon responded with another spell instantly, aiming to interrupt Sojin's intentions, as stone pillars erupted from the ground, disrupting the battlefield.

Shadow chains shot outward, anchored to unseen points beneath the surface, each tipped with dark, nail-like extensions designed to pierce and restrain, but the sudden rise of the pillars obstructed many of their paths, forcing the chains to collide, redirect, or lose momentum.

Seeing this, Sojin pushed his hands forward and shut his eyes, focusing intensely, he tightened his control over the shadow chains using mental control.

Under his command, they began to maneuver more fluidly—slithering and weaving around the newly formed stone pillars with unnatural precision, their sinister tips angling toward Arthur from multiple directions.

The chains coiled and lashed forward, trying to ensnare their target, but Arthur's speed and flexibility had become a problem with Brandon's help, he kicked off the ground and used the surrounding stone pillars as stepping platforms, shifting from one to another in rapid succession.

Each push carried him further, weaving through the battlefield until he burst out of the pillar-covered zone, and was now only a few meters away from Sojin.

A handful of shadow chains managed to keep up after being entangled around by the earth pillars that he had tried to get them lost in, as they snapped through the air behind him, but they were still just short of reaching him.

Arthur, driven by a surge of adrenaline, dropped his stance slightly, as the dual spike blades extending from his forearms scraped against the ground as he accelerated forward—The sharp metallic screech echoed.

That sound alone made fear creep into Sojin's face, as his eyes snapped open—

Too late.

But as he opened them he realized that Arthur was already in front of him, with an explosive force, he drove his left arm first upward in a motion akin to an uppercut, as the metal blade embedded along his forearm tore through Sojin's lower jaw—

—and burst out through the top of his head.

Sojin's eyes widened in shock, his arms still extended as he struggled to muster enough strength to drive the nail-tipped shadow chains into Arthur's back.

But Arthur didn't stop there, as his helmet shifted, opening and retracting downward in a smooth, segmented motion like a magically controlled nano-construct, to reveal his face, only these were being done by magic and not technology.

Then his right arm came forward in a piercing motion.

Again.

And again.

Each strike pierced through Sojin's chest until his body finally went limp—

—and dissolved, and that was how the first death of the final came about.

"War God Mage draws first blood!" an announcement thundered across the entire silent arena.
