3337 Battle I
There are seven of them in that group and three of them are quite familiar. It is Lizardman and its two minions; we have come across after we enter this mist.
The Lizardman had Grand Art, but it is not the most dangerous here. The Most dangerous is the Blood Red Hippoman, which has designs of sharp cracked leaves across its body.
It is also the host of Grand Art, and it is considered one of the most dangerous one.
The Endless Blood Forest.
“This time, you will not escape Magnus,” said the Lizardman, and came at Magnus with Blizzard at its wake.
“You have not stopped me last two times, and you won’t stop me now, Idr!” said Magnus and moved toward Lizard, whose minions seemed to learn the lessons from the last time and came at me from both directions.
I didn’t even glance at them.
My focus is on Leila, who is moving toward the Hipponman, with thousands of colorful bubbles of every size materializing around her.
Yes, Leila has the Grand Bubble Art, the same as Danielle.
While Hippoman looked like he was bringing the entire forest with it. I do not want to be anywhere close to that shit.
Even with my power, I don’t think I would be able to last even a minute against that bastard.
We planned to escape, but it seemed like it won’t be possible. The Grimms have been prepared. Everywhere I see, there are nearly twice the number of Grimms holding back the natives.
Even Earth Sovereigns were held back by the Five Grimm Earth Sovereigns; four Earth Sovereigns.
One had just died; the dark elf Rylis had killed it.
I didn’t see how she did. I saw a red line appearing across the Bullman’s neck before it slid off its body. Even four Grimms seemed shocked by the speed at which it had happened.
The Grimms have revealed their full numbers and if we have to leave; we will have to reduce these numbers.
Which won’t be a simple task. These Grimms are no normal Grimms; they have powerful inheritances and bloodlines.
Most importantly, they have the Grand Arts; it makes these bastards extremely dangerous.
“Die you bastard!” said Snakeman and Cheetaman in unison as they attacked me from both sides. I didn’t move at all, seeing their attacks coming from both sides of me.
I only activated the burst and let its power fill me from both sides.
I moved when their weapons were just inches away from me. I disappeared from my spot without leaving any trace.
It surprised them before suddenly a horror appeared on the face of Cheetaman when it felt my sword piercing through its heart from behind.
It had happened so fast that it didn’t get any time to react at all.
Puch!
My sword pierced through its heart, and it froze. I turned to Snakeman and grinned at it.
“You are next,” I said, and Cheetman disappeared with me.
A moment later, I appeared in front of the Snakeman to its shock, with my sword very close to its chest.
Hun!
When suddenly, I sensed the ominous feeling filled my heart, and I moved. It is good this I did, before that exact moment; I saw a spike of ice coming at me, at a very fast speed.
It is a single spike, but a dangerous one; formed with the power of the Grand Art.
The Lizardman attacked me to save its minion.
Sup
Puch!
I dodged the spike and unlike what Lizardman had expected. I had appeared behind the Snakeman and pierced my sword into its heart and sent a burst of energy into it.
I could see the surprise in the eyes of Lizardman fighting against the Magnus.
Well, it shouldn’t be it is not the first time I had fought against the host of art. It might have expected to kill me or retreat with its attack, but I appeared behind the Snakeman and finished the job.
Now, I have two High-Sovereign Grimm in my storage, and both of them have a bloodline.
Last time, I was quite regretful that I didn’t have the strength to kill these two, but now I have got, then in my core.
“Pay, you filthy bastard!” shouted the Grimm, and a moment later, I found thousands of ice lances materialized around me. They have surrounded me from all directions, with each holding a power to pierce through my defenses.
Sup Sup Sup!
The moment ice lances materialized; they came at me with incredible speed.
Burst 100%
Seeing the attack activated my full power. It is the first time I did it since the breakthrough and recovery.
No enemy forced me to use my full power.
It would be unfair to say that considering I have come across many enemies, needed me to use full power.
Before the recovery, I couldn’t harness my full power and after it, I didn’t get a chance. I wanted to fight one of Grimms, Jeh was fighting, but he didn’t need help.
It was quite regretful. I would have loved to get into the bloodline of the Grimm. It was fighting.
It took a fraction of seconds for the lances to appear around me and the formation in my armor activated.
Forming the slowing field around me, which I had finally upgraded, I could now once again use it. I had modified it for its original purpose and now, it would be used in dealing with crowded attacks like these.
The lances appeared in a slowing field and their speed slowed down by 15%, which didn’t look much, but it was a lot.
Simultaneously, I moved my sword, pouring the unit of power. My clones have asked me, just like I moved my sword in a path that they have calculated.
CLANNG
The first ice lance crashed against my sword, giving me quite a shock and attacking me with powerful frost energies.
They crashed into my armor like a snowstorm, but it is like a giant sponge, which absorbs the blow, before starting to absorb the snowstorm itself.
As I had said, it is not my first time dealing with grand art. While it is hard to deal with the energies of the grand art, it can be done.
CLANNNG CLANNNG CLANNNG
The instant I clashed with the first snow lance, my sword moved and defended against the five of them together.
I nearly staggered me and my armor shook, but I defended.
Though it is just beginning, and I have to survive till the end.
It would be unrealistic to assume I would be able to defend against all these ice lances. They are very powerful and the only reason I have the confidence to come out of it alive is my clones told me it is possible.
Though for it to happen, not a single mistake should be made.
If I made even the tiniest mistake; I would find tens of these ice lances porcupining me. There is no way I would survive that.
It will be a death sentence; a very painful one at that. These frost energies of Eternal Ice Dominion are torturous.
