Chapter 2619: Frozen II
'This time, I might really die,' I said as I felt the heat of the fireball coming toward me, and that heat was increasing at an extremly fast speed.
In less than a second, the fireball will hit me and burn m to death, and this time there might not be a rescue.
'Why didn't they send someone?' I have asked myself tens of times in the past moment. The Grimms are not the only ones who have powerhouses of this level; we also have some. If they had sent even one of them, there would have been chances of us being rescued.
Though I am not blaming them, this is not the only battlefield, and we also need to keep some reserve. Not to mention, it is impossible to save everyone, even the most important people; the death Grand Lord is proof of that.
The fireball reached me, and now there was only a distance of a meter between it and me. I wish I could move my neck; I want to look at the fire before it consumes me.
Bang!
I was preparing for it to strike me when I felt intense cold, and to my surprise, the fireball above me froze before I could understand how and exploded into fine red crystalline powder, which felt hot and cold at the same time.
Her attack was very fast, so fast that I did not even see it, and I was looking at her; my eyes were staring straight at her, but even looking through my core, where the time is three times faster, I didn't see her coming and saving me.
She had not only saved me but also saved the others; she had destroyed their attack with a speed that I could not even watch.
"You should not be thinking of harming any humans while I am here, Grimms," said the Grand Commander as she stood up slowly with her form fully covered in lunar energies with a voice that seemed to echo.
"So, you can control that power inside you," said Futra, and all the mirth in its voice disappeared; and is now looking at the Grand Commander in all seriousness.
"It is my power," said Grand Commander simply, and two tendrils of lunar frost energy moved separated from her and formed two long needles with one and a half meters in length and the radius of the finger.
Sup Sup!
As the needles materialized, they moved toward the Grimm with a speed that I again could not follow; they appeared directly in front of the Grimms and were about to pierce through them when they disappeared, and the needles moved toward them, and this time, the needles are much faster.
It seemed like the needles were intentionally slow the first time; Grand Commander wanted to move the Grimms away from the humans, and she had succeeded.
CLANNNG CLANNNG!
I heard two loud clangs and a very powerful shockwave that nearly toppled me. Thank got, the clash was far; otherwise, there would have been far more damage than just toppling.
The Grimms have stopped the needles, but to my surprise, they were not able to destroy the needles as they would normal energy attacks after the clash. It is like the Grand Commander shaped the needles like her staff swords, which she controls to fight.
What is more surprising is the lunar frost energy is alone; it is the energy of the Body. It did not have the support of the Inheritance energy or even internal energy, which I know the Grand Commander has; I have sensed it on her.
Even the most powerful const.i.tution energy is not powerful at her stage, but as I had said, the const.i.tution and the Body are in completely different leagues.
The most powerful const.i.tution does not possess even 1% strength of the Body, but at the stage, we are in, we are not able to draw out the full power of the const.i.tution, much less full power of the Body, which is humongous.
The books I have read have said it is very hard for those at the primary stage to harness the complete power of their const.i.tution.
Take my const.i.tution, for example; it is strong but not the strongest, but even then, I was not even able to draw out 10% power of it. It is one of the reasons why I researched so hard on the const.i.tutions, so I could find a way to harness the maximum power my current stage allow.
The books show many ways, but they are not suitable for me as the ways for each const.i.tution are different, and considering my const.i.tution is something that hidden being had helped in making, it is likely I will find a way to harness its full power from the books.
The fight of Grand Commander is really something; she is in the same spot as she stood up, while her enemies are continuously moving and dodging and clas.h.i.+ng against the needles, which seem to have been getting stronger and faster.
There seemed to be a hidden connection between the Grand Commander and those needles; from what I could see, the lunar frost energies were still coming from her body, but unlike before, they were not acc.u.mulating, and the aura of needles was getting stronger by the second.
I couldn't help but feel worried about the Grand Commander.
The power of her body burst out of nowhere, and the worrying thing is that it did not have the support of Inheritance, which is a bad thing, as I had said before.
They are incompatible, and even if they do not clash, there will be problems. As when they are not compatible, both Body and the Inheritance get very territorial, which means they might be clas.h.i.+ng right now, but they will be clas.h.i.+ng soon, and that might spell the end of the Grand Commander.
Their clash would be powerful, so powerful that it would tear her body apart, and this is only in the condition that the Body is stable.
Small worlds like ours have a problem is completely awakening the Bodies; the twins were quite lucky their awakening had happened in stages. It was const.i.tution first before it became a Body, which gave them ample time, but it did not seem like the condition for the Grand Commander.
Looking at the power that is coming out of her, it is very clear that she had gone through the awakening, and I just hope it is a stable awakening without any problem or there is going to be a lot of trouble for the Grand Commander, she might not live long, if the things are bad.
Even with a stable awakening, she would not live long because she needs compatibility with her Inheritance at the least. It would be amazing if there was a complete synergy that would combine the power of Inheritance and Body, and even I don't know how powerful one could become with it.
The new Inheritance twins have got have minimal basic synergy with their Inheritance, but even with it, the power they are able to harness is beyond shocking.
Puch!
"f.u.c.k!"
I was in my thoughts when suddenly, I heard the faint sound of piercing and, a moment later, cursing loud enough to awaken even sedated person.
Bastr appeared a few hundred meters away from me and was looking at its palm, which had a tiny hole, and now the area around was freezing rapidly.
The frost had already covered its palm and now spreading fast into its arm; it won't be long before it covered its whole art and the rest of the body after.
