Dawn Of Legend:Rise Of An Extra-Chapter 185 :Testing Water[4]

Zod eyes contracted to the maximum shining with multiple colours at once.

All the hairs on his body stood erect perceiving changes in the flow of the world that was catered around Frank.

Zod reacted quickly, but before he moved his body, the entire world seemed to crash down on him.

A mighty pressure comparable to the whole world smashed over his shoulder making his body arch in cold sweat and his heart skipped a beat.

SWISH!

The flow of breeze came to a standstill.

The ticking of time froze.

All the movements of the world ceased for a moment.

It was then, a twinkle glinted across the horizon.

A flash of the incandescent pillar of light shooting towards the sky blinded Zod's vision.

A terrifying beam of sword light that extended from the ground towards heaven erupted from Frank's sword.

Anything that it touched, was obliterated into nothingness.

A flicker went past him.

And blood spurted out like a fountain.

As time returned to normal, Zod's eyes enlarged and his body tensed up seeing a cut over his chest.

"What?"

Zod turned around frantically and saw Frank taking leisurely steps behind him.

His eyes widened upon seeing a huge fissure running towards the far-end vicinity behind Frank.

A deathly silence lingered for a moment.

BOOOOOOOOOOM!

The very next second, the world erupted with a loud exploding sound as if a volcano had erupted sending tremors.

The clouds swaying in the sky were split apart and the ground on which they stood trembled.

An earthquake shook the vast plains.

Zod staggered on his feet and lost his footing due to which the wound burst and the blood sprayed.

"Even if the world is stopped, you still manage to see my movements. You are still good but far behind him."

"Who…Cough…"Zod coughed in pain.

"Out of several opponents that I have faced, there has been only one person…" Frank raised his finger pointing at the sky, a hint of reminiscent sadness flashed over his face.

"Only one whom I and others have never managed to touch. "

"There is only one person who has the right to hold the undisputable title of Untouchable."

"Many don't know about it because all those who tried to kill him weren't left to tell his tale."

"Do you know who it is?"

Frank turned around with a majestic smile that piqued Zod's curiosity.

"Wh...Who...is he?"

"The Golden Lion," Frank murmured slowly, thinking about the face of the black-haired hair golden eyed man that walked across the battlefield acting as a shield for the army to follow behind.

"No matter how much you attack, no matter how much you blast him with punches, slash him with a sword or blow him with spells. Like an unbreakable fortress, he kept on marching."Frank closed his lip at the end sinking into those vague memories.

"He was my archrival, more than that he was a good friend. "

'Alas, fate played a cruel trick on him, crippling his entire foundation.'

Frank didn't speak the last sentence.

Silence reigned for a moment.

As soon as Frank word's fell, Zod's body shivered uncontrollably because if you didn't know this name despite being a high realm warrior, you should just shut yourself in your home.

The man who was known as Invincible Iron Fortress was one of the legends of the past generation.

The real person who was truly untouchable. Not only does he have a superior defence made by a surrounding layer of magical energy, but he can also crush mountains by clenching his fist and crush you into dust by slamming a whole mountain on you.

He was also The Head of the Imperial Knights of Cyprus who terrorized the other lands however the man suddenly disappeared out of nowhere and no one was able to trace him after that.

"By the way, on top of all-seeing eyes Vigrus, you also had the power to increase your speed. However, this doesn't seem to be your ability, rather it's acquired."

"You can even conclude that. How did you know?"

Zod eyes glowed faintly and Frank's danger level in his heart was raised to another degree.

The person was more terrifying than he thought initially.

Zod, maintaining his calm demeanour, wiped the blood that was flowing out from his chest.

Yellow lightning sparks gushed forth from his body devouring the whole surrounding.

Frank's lips curled upward with a menacing smile upon seeing Zod preparing to take his blow again.

"Boy, you think you know about my power but you are making a grave mistake," Frank muttered unsheathing his sword again.

Zod knew another attack was coming, so he channelized his strength. His body flickering with a blur, the body seemed to move around Frank with a speed impossible to see with the naked eye.

The air shattered like glass as his speed transcended over the barrier of sound and reached Mach 3 disrupting the entire landscape.

A surge of winds concentrated around Zod and turned into a huge hurricane around Frank.

"How naive!"

Frank smiled and moved the strands of hair covering his face exposing his eyes that had entirely turned navy blue.

"Boy, it's useless."

It was then that the world around Frank turned blue.

Swoosh!

CLICK!

Blood spurted again and a hand flew back with great speed and crashed back onto the dirt creating a huge pit.

Zod was startled for a moment. Even before the feeling of pain could be transmitted to the brain, he was hit again by a fist.

BANG!

A huge fissure formed on the ground.

Before he understood his situation, Zod found himself flying in the air and the ground on which he stood became distant.

Zod was unable to understand what happened, and spinning his body in the air, locked his gaze onto Frank who just stood quietly on the ground, he extended his remaining arm to attack.

A beam of light containing a mass of destructive energy shot dowards but before it could reach Frank, the world stopped again followed by a subtle clicking sound.

CLICK!

A large fissure formed in the sky and a gigantic cut appeared over the cloud splitting it apart followed by showers of lightning.

The beam of light was split and destroyed while Zod's whole body burst with blood with a large cut that almost killed his life.

However, at the last moment, Zod felt a tingling sensation and something warped around his body.

With a flick of her finger, Shana pulled the thread and glared at him.

"That's why I told you not to show off, nerdy specks."

"Foolish bastard."Shana's cute grumbling sound echoed.

Suspended in the air, Zod turned his head towards Frank with a confused expression.

"It's not Time Dilation."

"Time Dilation is just a pseudo ability."

As soon as those words fell, Zod along with Shana's expression became pale.

"Then, what is your real ability?" Zod's voice trembled and he coughed blood, feeling a searing pain all over his body.

"Do you know why we are called Frost?"

Both Shana and Zod's brows creased.

"It's because we can form a domain and freeze time for real by drawing out the blessing given to us by the Gods. The title is just a bit ambiguous to hide the truth and many mistake it thinking that our ancestors had ice ability."

'It's real.' Zod's body quivered and his eyes became dead.

He had always thought that this was a lie as how can there be a person who can stop time?

But reality proved otherwise.

His pride in being someone untouchable was crushed and shattered into dust.

In a fit of shock, Zod puked blood.

Shana waved her hands casually, and many stitches appeared over the cuts on Zod's body, stopping the organs from falling while picking up the cut hand of Zod.

"Wow, that Loli is also a surgeon."Kai appeared behind Frank and rubbed his chin giving Shana a surprised stare that made her shudder.

"Shut up, pervert." Shana extended her making a grappling motion and Andreas' body shot towards them.

Staring at the people with an incredulous gaze, a naughty smile formed on her face.

"Since you are considered the winner of this first clash, we should apologize for disturbing you and beg your pardon."

Andreas stood up on the huge flying Phoenix puppet of Shana and spoke with his trembling lips,

"We are not the real preparators behind this. We just came here to suppress our boredom. So, I hope you take care of those real ones."

"Hey, what do you mean by that?!"

Kevin appeared on the spot and screamed with cold eyes feeling a bad premonition.

Staring down at him without any fear, Shana asked, raising her umbrella.

"What is the current rank of that tower?"

"Huhh?!"

Question marks appeared over Frank, Kai and Kevin's faces.

"It should be at Legendary rank for now."

Kai answered indifferently but his back tingled at the next second, noticing Kevin and Frank's murderous gaze.

"Who the fuck asked you to tell that?"

Kai averted his gaze and whistled as if he hadn't heard his question.

Shana's eerie laugh, different from the cute voice, echoed, sending chills down everyone's spine.

"It seems you are done this time."

"We are just support. The real actors are yet to take the stage."

Shana waved her hand and the three figures disappeared.

With these parting words, the three images of the beasts disappeared in a blur.

As soon their image disappeared, Frank collapsed on the ground.

"Frank, you son of bitch, what have you done?!"Kai screamed in panic and held him.

Kevin appeared and supported Frank"Was it necessary?"

Kevin felt a bit conflicted seeing Frank's pale expression.

The Time Frost ability of Frost House is truly a miracle that can turn the tide of battle.

However every second they stop time, they will lose 6 months of their lifespan. The backlash might seem quite severe but the results were more than worth it as it didn't matter if the opponent was stronger or at a higher rank than you, Once activated if you want to kill, it will be a kill. Moroever, you didn't even need to stop time for a whole second. Stopping for a mili seconds and making a hit is enough to take down your enemy. In the previous fight, Frank's total use of Time Frost might not have reached even half a second considering the high speed of a 9-Star warrior who can move breaking the barrier of sound.

Due to its fatal effect, they created a pseudo-ability named Time Dilation and only a countable few knew about this backlash of the Time Frost ability.

"These three people's strengths can't be underestimated. If we pushed them to the edge, only God knows if we could win." Kevin muttered.

"The other two aren't a problem but this small girl is horrific. I fear she had an army of high-level puppets."Kai spoke sombrely.

He may look like a person with a low IQ that fools around but he isn't.

Kai could sense that under that cute expression, Shana was boiling with bloodthirst wanting to kill him when he called her Loli and short yet he kept on calling that to test her bottom line.

"As a puppeteer even if you managed to overcome the strain on the soul while managing the puppet, there haven't been any 9-Star or 8-Star puppets cause they aren't materials to hold onto that level."Kai murmured faintly.

"There has been a missing link to refine puppets beyond 7-Star. It's not only material but also a certain technique."

As per what they knew, in the second Era, many evil sorcery and ways to overcome the limitations were present but all records had been erased by Gods considering it as a taboo and threat to the world's peace. 𝙗𝒆𝒅𝒏𝙤𝒗𝒆𝙡．𝙤𝒓𝙜

"However, it seems Omen had found a solution to that."

Kevin's brows creased as he turned towards Kai,"Did you find something?"

Kevin shrugged his shoulders.

"I only know that those puppets seem to have their own emotions and there is a fleshy part in them. As per materials, I don't know."

"Haah…It was good that I managed to control my urge and didn't kill him. These are just three of the whole group and there are many more whom we do not have any prior information about."Frank spoke, taking out a potion from his ring.

"Let's hurry back and see what's going on," Kevin said and was about to turn back when his entire body froze.

Kai's leisurely expression suddenly distorted and his eyes trembled violently.

Frank's steps of taking the potion halted and all the hair on his body erected with fear.

"What the hell…."Kai wasn't able to finish his words as his heart beat with palpitations.

Their heartbeat wildly, pulse raced and legs quivered.

TREMOR!TREMOR!TREMOR!

Fear….

It wasn't only them, rather all the world seemed to be trembling with fear.

A feeling that was transferred to every living being by the world itself as if to convey its current feeling of ominous stirring itself.

At that very instant, the entire world seemed to be shaking in fear as if an ancient existence had woken up from slumber threatening the very order of the world.
