Infinite Mana In The Apocalypse

Chapter 146 - A group from another world!

With the direction set, the adventure began as an Atlantean fearlessly charged to the deeper waters of the sea.

Everything around him was dark and gloomy, with the occasional oversized fish swimming by without a worry. Noah met a variety of sea creatures as he continued to dive deeper and deeper into the endless waters of the Lost World while following the signal of the Champion's Trident.

Among the fish he came across, their strengths varied from large groups of fish that were letting out power that was seemingly rank F-C, with the groups becoming smaller as they individually increased in power.

After going down for a few hours and meeting a few creatures that would be considered BOSSes or Leaders that drop skill books, he came across his first LEGENDARY opponent. The creature was hostile as soon as it saw him, jets of water propelling it forward at extreme speeds.

Its figure matched that of a [Black Dragonfish], but it was much larger with even sharper teeth. It took the appearance of a long eel that was more than 10 meters long, with sharp spikes coming out from its body.

It was an ugly thing to look at.

Noah observed the new attacker with enthusiasm as it rushed through the water at high speeds, starting off by putting extreme pressure on it with [Demon King's Haki]. The straight line the Dragonfish was rushing in faltered as the pressure descended, causing its wide jaws packed with sharp teeth to swing below Noah's Atlantean body.

The Unique Skill, {Primal Conjurer} was used as two LEGENDARY [Dullahans] appeared on either side of the dragonfish. The undead horses with headless knights situated on top of them felt no discomfort in the water as green light and smoke spread out.

WAAA!

A droning sound was let out as green spears appeared in the hands of the two headless knights and struck down into the body of the LEGENDARY dragonfish. The scales were dented as it began to bleed, and Noah wasn't far behind as he activated [Corrupted Sigil of Hegemony] and then cast one of his first EPIC+ skills from Skill Combination.

Any "+" skills and those gained from combination were skills not normally seen, and they had spectacular effects as usual. An example was the Holy Blight that controlled bodies of the dead at EPIC rank. If it continued to be raised up through combinations, who knew just how crazy it would become.

The skill cast after the runic sigil became active was the combination of [Arctic Breath] and [Bone Spears], [A Storm of Ice and Bones]

VOOOM!

A terrifying sound rang out as the water around them trembled. The Dragonfish held down against the two Dullahans felt a threat of death appear as the environment quickly began to freeze over, and a destructive storm began brewing in the water.

VOOM!

Hundreds of deathly spears encased in destructive and unstable ice elements appeared while spinning rapidly. The spears caused ice to form around the water as they went to strike down towards the body of the Dragonfish. Before they even arrived, rays of cold light shot out from them to pierce their target first, and then the cold bone spears arrived themselves to skewer the enemy.

SPULCH!

Deathly throws could be heard as the storm of icy bone spears that shot out cold rays of light pierced in and out of the body of the Dragonfish. Noah was casting it multiple times as he watched a glacier forming in the water, the [Storm of Ice and Bones] continuing to rain down destruction as deathly green spears also landed on the poor fish from the Dullahans.

The LEGENDARY rank deep-sea creature that he came across in the Lost World fell down like this. It had no time to breathe as it was swarmed by two LEGENDARY primal spirits, as well as someone even more frightening. Multiple cores, a skill book, and an item appeared in Noah's storage pouch as he went to check them out enthusiastically.

[Whirlpool] :: Draw in your enemies in a rapidly rotating storm of water that will shred the weak to flesh and bones.

[Deep Sea Armor] :: A heavy scale armor capable of alleviating all pressures under the sea while completely protecting its wearer.

The skill was spectacular by itself as Noah learned it right away while putting on his first LEGENDARY piece of armor. A sleek black armor that seemed to suck in the water around it appeared on his body, making him look more and more like a dweller of the sea.

He moved the large dead body of the Dragonfish into the Spiritual Land, with the plan of cutting it up and making something for himself later. He hadn't had a chance to enjoy his own cooking for a while.

He continued down the sea with even more vigor as he looked forward to another appearance of a similar beast that would add on to his LEGENDARY skill collection. More than an hour passed as the journey down continued, and vibrations could be felt emanating upfront, signifying a battle was occurring.

The power of the vibration was nothing to scoff at, making Noah adopt a serious face as his body became fully wrapped in covert skills. He went forward and used [Searching Thermal Eyes] as a sight a few nautical miles away from him opened itself.

It was another large underwater city similar to Liquinia, and if the memories he had been stealing were correct, the position of this city at this depth would make it one of the larger cities right before the entrance of the Bathypelagic Zone where Atlantis could be found.

This was a city where Merfolk prospered, and it stood grandly in shining lights as a blue shield was currently covering the entire city. A few damaged futuristic buildings could be observed as a battle was currently taking place.

Atlanteans and Merfolk were using advanced [Plasma Guns] that shot out blue lasers towards their enemies, while others fought in close quarters hoisting tridents and controlling the powerful submarines around them to blast off the enemies.

To Noah's surprise, the enemies were actually...humans?

He looked closer and became even more surprised as he found the identity of the attackers. He knew the clothing they wore and the colorful skills they were using from the memories of the Demon Kings he had killed.

This was one of the groups of beings from another world that was currently moving in the Lost World for their own purposes. They were prolific powerhouses that held a level of power across a few worlds as their system of strength focused on the fundamentals of the world.

Words that drew the annoyance of anyone who heard them rang out as Noah made out the figures leading the attack against this underwater city.

"Haha, I, Disciple Bob, won't be hindered by a group of fish!"

Arrogant words came out from a figure dressed in purple robes. A force seemed to emanate from his body that pushed away the surrounding water with ease. His arms were crossed behind his back as he stared down at the city in complete contempt. Around him were two others with purple robes just like him that were looking down coldly.

Behind them were tens of other human figures dressed in light blue robes, all of them surrounded by a sort of field that pushed away the surrounding water.

Above all these figures was someone sitting grandly in a purple chair that let out a mystical cloud of light beneath it. The man let out waves of power that were definitely above LEGENDARY as he overlooked the process of the attack.

From their robes, the way they spoke, and the extreme arrogance in their words, this was the other group that was running rampant in the Lost World, the Cultivators.
