Infinite Mana In The Oasis

166 Extreme Fear Can Neither Fight Nor Fly



“Aaaaaargh!”

Vihah couldn’t stop screaming as she was suffering through the pain of amputated legs. Igni Wave had injected fire-element mana into the girl’s system. The foreign mana invasion also cauterized the wound before wreaking havoc inside her body.

Shifa was trying to stabilize her sister’s condition. But she was upset because her sister had lost her legs.

“Hold her down!”

Shifa heard Lagartha’s voice from behind her. The latter was approaching the duo while holding Vinah’s chopped legs.

Lagartha quickly closed in on the sisters before placing the chopped legs close to their still-intact parts. The wood-element ranker first forcefully injected her own mana into Vinah’s system and got rid of Eren’s fire-element mana. She then used a rare element-wood spell to reunite the amputated parts of her legs.

The chopped parts and the intact limbs had several green vines growing out of them before they started interlocking with each other. In about half a minute, both of Vinah’s legs were joined using the green vines between them as a medium.

Vinah was mentally shaken because of losing her legs as much as she was in physical pain. But seeing her legs stitched back together by Lagartha’s spell gave her the relief she was craving.

“Try to get up.”

Lagartha offered Vinah a hand as she spoke in a grim voice. She wasn’t too happy even after recovering her party member’s lost limbs. That’s because she knew everything would be over if Eren managed to come out of his current predicament.

Lagartha needed all hands on the deck. Vinah was one of the key players in trying to bring Eren down for good.

***

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Tohir shot his darts through the space between the large vines, which served as prison bars. Lagartha had allowed Tohir’s spells to reach Eren but prevented Eren from attacking him.

Eren didn’t need to dodge the darts because he had his Bear armor on. The darts would just bounce off the armor before dispersing into thin air as they were manifested by Tohir’s spell.

“Heh! Sooner or later you’d run out of mana and be unable to support that armor of yours. We’ll see how you save yourself when that happens.”

Thor said and smirked. He wasn’t flustered when he saw his darts were unable to hit Eren anymore. He had too much time on his hands. And Eren wasn’t heading anywhere.

Eren was trying to figure out a way to break Lagartha’s spell by attacking it with various spells from various angles. However, both his lightning and fire element spells were not that effective against a wood-element spell.

Plus, it had high regeneration properties that would fix the damage done to the vines by Eren’s spells. It prevented Eren from breaking the cage by accumulating the damage at a particular place.

He had come to realize that the spell the enemy used was a bit different from his Igni Lotus. She had used an artifact in conjunction with her spell to achieve these effects.

‘Hm. Guess now’s the time to call forth a tank.’

Eren didn’t see his prison as a life-threatening challenge for him. Because the three female rankers were ignoring him. He was unable to be affected by the only ranger on the enemy team using spells with enhanced debuff effects but low penetration power.

His axe attacks on the prison were suddenly stopped and he turned around. He saw the three female rankers approaching him with do-or-die looks on their faces.

“Lagartha I tried to attack the bastard but his armor…”

Tohir tried to put his side forward after seeing his party members approach him. But Lagartha ignored him and looked at Eren before speaking up.

“I had prepared this artifact and spell combo for a girl named Miranda from the Stardust guild. However, that bitch managed to reach the Awakened rank and completely ruined my efforts. But I’m glad I invested in them. Otherwise, we would have been in a serious pinch against you.”

Eren raised his eyebrows as he heard Lagartha’s words. Chuckling, he responded.

“It seems you are too confident in this prison of yours. It’s pretty solid. I’ll give you that. Sorry to break it to you though. It won’t be able to hold me.”

Igni Wave

Flesh-altering spell

Eren said, gripping his hand before sending a pair of Igni Waves towards his enemies. He compressed more fire-element mana into the attack and used a flesh-altering spell to enhance the vector force behind it.

Tohir almost shat his pants when he saw that Eren’s new spell combo had almost cut through the green vines. The snake sisters felt a bit upset when that happened.

However, Lagartha operated on the artifact that she had buried underground as soon as she saw Eren’s spells attacking the vines. She strengthened the prison at the expense of further deteriorating the artifacts. She didn’t care what happened to the array of artifacts after the fight. So she was okay with it.

Regenerative properties kicked in and strengthened the near-snapped vines. However, Eren launching that attack made Lagartha realize something. Eren would break the prison with hardly any effort if she decides to run away and not maintain her spell. They would all die in that case.

Tohir, who was preparing to run away from the scene, stopped in his tracks when he saw that Lagartha’s spell could still hold on. Laughing, he gloated at Eren some more.

“Hahaha! This… I wanted to see this. Lagartha, Shifa, Vinah! We must take revenge for all our fallen comrades.

Hahaha! This caged rat has lost all his teeth and nails. He is as harmless as an earthworm.”

Tohir pulled his hair as he laughed. His eyes widened when he said that.

Lagartha looked at Tohir and felt upset about the way he was behaving. The guy had his personality twisted after seeing Eren’s carnage. His coping mechanism was making him appear out of his element. And he was trying to compensate for his lack of confidence by laughing at things where laughter wasn’t needed.

She didn’t know what kind of turmoil Tohir had felt up close by being in the vicinity of Eren while he was killing his opponents. But she could imagine Eren’s presence had affected him a lot.

“Extreme fear can neither fight nor fly.”

Eren smiled as he spoke to Lagertha. As if he could tell what she was thinking about.
