Chapter 2207 - Trapped Jim
The next field was volcanic, and it was so hot that even Masters with the best defenses would find it straining; only someone like Rhea could remain comfortable in such an extremely hot environment.
At my peak, it wouldn"t have been any problem but now, not so much. Thankfully, Rhea had powered up the diamond energies around me, which is helping me deal with this extreme heat.
It is not just the heat that is extreme here but also the energy purity, which is also much greater compared to the last field.
All the plants in this place are protected under the formations, and these formations are not protection formations. I could easily make my hand pa.s.s through them and pluck those plants.
These formations" only job is giving them enough heat and energy required for their level and blocking the rest. As their level grows, they will get more access to energy and heat.
"Eat this tablet; it will save you from the energy poison," Rhea said as she took out a white-colored tablet. The energy of this place is too dense; even those who are step away from reaching a Grandmaster cla.s.s would get poisoned by such purity within a minute.
"There is no need," I said, declining.
While others may not be able to bear such energy purity, I do not have any problem with it. It could be said that it is even slightly beneficial to my recovery due to my const.i.tution.
Every moment my body is sucking up a huge amount of energy and transferring into my core which would purify this energy further and would sense recovery wave throughout my body.
While it may not compare to the bloodlines, which healed Rhea completely within an hour and even made her advance while I am still suffering the weakness despite being injured at a similar level.
The method is good, and it would make my recovery a few hours faster. The speed of recovery would increase further if I find energy even purer. With the specialty of my const.i.tution, I could bear energy density compared to that of Grandmasters.
The plants in this room, too, have been harvested; still, I had collected a few samples as usual.
We appeared in front of the wall, and this time I did not need a reminder; I quickly scanned the formation and began breaking it.
Buzz!
Around fifty minutes later, the formation I had created buzzed, and it stunned the wall of formation. We walked through it without wasting any time and entered what seemed like a land of gentle.
The wind may be gentle, but it is far more dangerous than the volcanic heat earlier. This is no regular wind but one which is filled with lacerating astral energies that would give trouble to even vidette.
There is no way the previous defense of Rhea would have been able to bear, even with its incredible abilities.
"We have barely survived here last time, and to survive from it, we quickly pa.s.sed through that broken formation when Jim said it was safe enough," she said, motioning toward a wall made of a couple of broken formations.
"We just have to pa.s.s through these formations, and we will reach the place where Jim is," Rhea added and placed her hand on my shoulder.
As she did, she released her diamond energy, but this time, the energy was far greater amount than before, and in a couple of seconds, it had formed a thick-hard diamond later around me.
"Things are quite dangerous in front," she said and walked toward the formation before pa.s.sing through it; a second later, I followed suit.
As I pa.s.sed through it, I felt as if a mountain trying to crush me, and at the same time, I was attacked by thousands of sharp swords. It is something I would have needed to use my s.h.i.+elds at full power, but now diamond energy is doing it, and I couldn"t help but become impressed by its prowess.
"Humans!"
It is the first word I had heard when I reached the other side, there are two Grimm Monsters in front of us, and after looking at them, I instantly lost interest in them and turned toward the real thing I had come here for.
Jim.
I could see him and couldn"t help but marvel at his luck. He is trapped alright but not in trapping formation but into a group of broken formations. Which are surrounding him from all sides, giving him not a single chance to get.
It is extremely rare for broken formations to amalgamate like that, but it is also extremely rare for not a single one of them had torn the Jim apart.
Jim"s eyes lit up seeing me, and he said something, but no sound came out. He seemed to know that as he quickly began to sign off the few gestures, saying, get him the h.e.l.l out of here.
He also did not seem too worried about the two Grimms in the area, as he had not even glanced at them.
"Hehe, we had expected humans would come to rescue it but did not expect they would come this early," said the Goatman with a laugh as it looked at both of us.
Both of our faces had been covered. If it knew our ident.i.ty, it would not be this calm even with the power it possesses, which is slightly lower than of vidette.
"You will be able to handle them, right?" I asked Rhea, "Don"t worry about them," She replied.
The Grimm Monsters are in no way weak; they are cream and crop of Grimm race, only slightly weaker than the vidette which put them at the very top of Master cla.s.s, a real fearful enemy for anyone below Grandmaster.
Before her advancement, Rhea would not have been a match of the powerful Grimm Monster, much less two. She would have only been able to pa.s.sively defend, but now that is not the case.
These two Grimms would not be a problem for her.
