Chapter 802 Mandraguna

802 Mandraguna

"Argghh!!" roared Patimura angrily.

In split seconds, Patimura remembered a nervous young man who greeted him enthusiastically. A young man who didn't retreat in front of Gram Wave despite having trembling legs. A young man practicing his swords, wearing heavy metal armor day and night.

All these memories fade away and turn into enormous fury. Using [Mandraguna Three], Patimura swung his double axe artifact down towards the disfigured monster [Zigurat - Smelt Burst]. *BOOOOM*

An intense explosion erupted in the whole area. The explosion is so fierce that it creates a maelstrom in the area. Yet, it only makes the thick mysterious fog dance in the air harshly.

No matter how far or strong this maelstrom is, the thick fog is always there to cover Patimura. Unfortunately, Patimura didn't have time to notice this thing as the monstrous creature in front of him bore his attack without a single scratch.

His destructive all-out attack seemed like hitting an impenetrable barrier and he couldn't move further. If it is not for breaking frozen ground below the monster, Patimura may think this monster is another illusion.

*SWISH* *BANG* Before Patimura could react, he was already hit by something and thrown a few hundred meters at once.

"Urgh... What is that thing?!!" groaned Patimura while his mind was calming down from the decisive attack.

Patimura knows his previous attack has enough power to destroy the whole Everwhite and a large part of Frostfall County. Yet, the monster withstood it as if nothing. Furthermore, his previous attack was not only fast but also deadly.

It may look like a casual swing attack from one of his disfigured limbs. Still, it has enough power to decimate Everwhite Frozen Lake. Such power is focused on a single limb. It could easily kill any weaker seventh grade or at least heavily injure them.

Fortunately, his [Mandraguna Three] was still active during the attack and capable to withstand this monstrous attack. Otherwise, his body will explode into bloody shredded meat.

Mandraguna is Dipo's family's ultimate and unique skill to grant the user an invincible body. [Mandraguna One] will grant the user complete immunity towards an attack.

[Mandraguna Two] will grant the user a high-speed regeneration. It will also purify any harmful stuff inside the user's body.

[Mandraguna Three] is the combination of [Mandraguna One] and [Mandraguna Two]. It will make the user impervious to any attack, along with a high-speed regeneration body. However, this invincible skill is not without weakness.

When [Mandraguna Three] is used, the user will be covered with a bright yellowish light. This is not just a special effect but also signifies the Mandraguna limit. Each regeneration, movement, or blocking attack will diminish this yellowish light.

Once all this light is gone, Patimura can no longer use any Mandraguna skill for a certain period. [Mandraguna Three] may make the user invincible. Still, it also leaves them vulnerable when the skill is gone.

Moreover, Patimura couldn't just turn the skill off and on like a switch. He needs to spend enormous energy just to use [Mandraguna Three]. This will delay his reaction and even stop his movement for a moment.

Facing a monstrous creature, Patimura didn't dare to be delayed just for a moment. Coming out from the ice rubble from the ground, he noticed a black silhouette appeared in front of him. Few arms attack Patimura with the same terrifying force.

*BANG* *BANG* *BANG* This time, Patimura managed to hold on to his ground but also couldn't escape against this flurry of attacks. The monster is very simple and basic. It only swings its disfigured limbs toward Patimura without technique or skill.

However, the force contained in each attack is so enormous that it could even leave a scratch on the mighty dragon scale. Along with these continuous attacks, Patimura's yellow light also rapidly diminished.

'Shit!! I can't keep being passive like that.' thought Patimura.

Just as Patimura wanted to break through, he found mouths of various sizes that appeared on the monster's body and released an indiscriminate [Miasma Blast] attack.

"Fuck!!" cursed Patimura before using his all to escape the monster. *BOOOM* *BOOOM* *BOOOM* *BOOOM* Dozens of [Miasma Blast] covered the whole area. Unfortunately, Patimura couldn't completely dodge this attack despite his fast movement.

"Huft.. Huft... Shit!! [Mandraguna] will be turned off soon." muttered Patimura.

Although [Mandraguna] is hailed as one of the most invincible skills in the world, it still has a significant weakness. Since Mandraguna's skill is not limitless, it is incompatible with any corrosive or curse attack type.

This attack will make Mandraguna go into overdrive and consume it much faster. In short, Mandraguna users have bad compatibility with any monster overlord. Monster overlord's miasma is not only potent but also enormous.

If they want, they could release any potent miasma based attack without trouble for a whole day. (A/

N. Besides the Miasma Blast). Compared with the limited Mandraguna, it will crumble in no time.

Once again, Patimura fell into another disadvantageous position. In fact, he feels like all his ability and attack is already anticipated. It was never effective whenever he tried to make an escape move or attack. It is as if the opponent knows everything about him.

In the end, Patimura chose to escape against this monstrous creature despite hating it to the bone for killing his dear captains. The previous head that the monster holds is the head of Gofrey and Gabel. These two guardian captains are the longest that are staying with him.

He had already witnessed their growth from their young age until their current position. He didn't expect such talented figures to have a miserable end under this grotesque monster.

In the meantime, the other Anna is observing Patimura without any expression from a distance inside the thick fog.

Unlike her real body, she didn't show her usual cheerful nature but always had an icy cold expression as if indifferent towards any life. Still, it didn't mean she didn't have Anna's mischievous nature. In fact, the other Anna is thinking hard of an excellent plan to mess with Patimura.

At this moment, the other Anna takes out Anna's special pepper ball. After playing with it a few times, she shakes her head and stores it as if she finds it not a good idea. Suddenly, the other Anna thought of something and blinked her eyes a few times.

The other Anna looks at Patimura playing cat and mouse with the unknown monster overlord before pointing in another direction. At once, the pitch-black Cupid below her moves according to her 14:48

direction.

Meanwhile, the Guardian kept retreating and became more passive as more casualties appeared in their ranks. Not only do they need to fend off the unending Gram Wave, but they also need to be careful of the ice bird Gram in the air.

"Hold on!! Don't break the formation!!" shouted a few guardians' seniors.

Spells, explosions, and ice shards keep flying everywhere. Yet, each minute, Guardian members will fall to the frozen ground to never wake up again. The situation is getting worse as their sixth-grade captain is also missing.

Without guardian captains or their leader Patimura, they are like headless chickens. If it were not for their sophisticated training and tactics that improved through the years, these Guardians had already joined this cold tundra nature long ago.

"Shit!! Where is leader Patimura and Captains?!!" cursed one of the Guardian. n./o/-v-(e/.l-/B)/I(.n

Still, many didn't falter and stood despite continuously seeing their ally falling before them. They could only harden themselves and vent it on the Gram while retreating slowly.

Unfortunately, their retreat route will soon come to an end. With the help of Guardian Captains and Leader Patimura, the other Guardian member's retreat speed is faster than usual.

In just half an hour, they already retreat near the tenth point mark, the Glass Fortress, the last defense of Everwhite City. On the other hand, the Guardian Captains find themselves in another perilous situation.

At first, Captain Thedel and Dannet retreat to help the other Guardian members. Just after they leave their leader's side, they are trapped in this endless thick fog. No matter how far and fast they tried to run, they always met with the same thick fog.

They will still meet the same thick fog even if they are flying or burrowed in the frozen ground. Furthermore, the whole area is not a loophole dimension space but more like a vast unending maze.

They also could feel various kinds of monsters and Gram of different sizes inside the thick mist, watching each of their moves. Yet, these monsters never move from their spot.

If the captain tries to approach them, their silhouette will be gone in the thick mist. Their numbing body sense also worsens their anxiety as time passes.

"Fuck!! Get over here, you coward bastard!!" roared Captain Thedel angrily.

"Thedel, that's enough. Save your breath. Our priority is to come out from this place first. There will be more casualties as time passes by." said Captain Dannet.

"But, there is no way out!! Can't you see?!! They are just trying to tire us to our death in this fucking mist." retorted Captain Thedel.

As the two captains argue, another two Guardian captains fight each other while standing on Gram's corpse.

"Huft... Huft... Gofrey, what's the meaning of this?" asked Captain Gabel.

"Ora mateni sekabehe (Don't kill everthing)." - Javanese Philosophy.
