Chapter 857 An Ideal Sand Bag!


    -----


    As the Pdin Commander that Maria was fighting was driven to a corner and almost ughtered as her strike pierced his chest and left a huge wound, something suddenly started to change!


    Countless of fleshy tendrils emerged from the wound on his chest, as his armor melted into a metallic slime-like substance, merging with his wounds!


    Maria instantly noticed what was happening, this man was not like the chimera kids from before, no, his body had been "enhanced" with an even more refined method than those.


    It seems that the Pdins of this second city in the Desert of Goldsand had undergone an even more drastic transformation, with an even more advanced method of modification, perhaps simr to the one the Heroes that invaded her Vige had undergone.


    "Would you look at that…"


    The powers he held within were those of an Evil God''s Fragment, and his armor was also cursed with its powers and miasma, made with its materials.


    But at the same time, it was much more different, this dark power wasn''t merely just an independent monstrous form, but there was indeed SOMETHING controlling its growth.


    "This is…?"


    "The Blessings of the Water Goddess will not let me DIE so easily, you witch!!!"


    "Hoh~"


    As the Pdin''s Captain body kept growing monstrously, a gigantic arm made of countless of fleshy tendrils unified together, wrapped on blue and silver colored scales, shed against Maria!


    BAAAM!


    Maria was slightly surprised by the increasingly powerful strike, but blocked it with her bare fists, unleashing a barrage of fist attacks that pushed her foe meters away, giving him the time to finish his transformation…


    Ding!


    [The power of their [Corrupted Oasis Spirit''s Heart Fragment] has forcefully transformed the [Water Goddess Pdin Captain (A Rank)] into a [Shark-headed Aquatic Miasmic Aberration (S Rank)]!]


    [His body is now epassed in a mighty [Aura of Corrupted Spiritual Energies], further increasing All Stats by +150%!]


    "Corrupted Oasis Spirit Heart Fragment?" Maria wondered. "This is new, it''s not the Evil God''s Fragment, or Demonite? Or his Secretion? What… is this?!"


    In front of Maria, the Captain of the Pdins had underwent a drastic transformation! Unlike the other Pdins, who had transformed into S- Rank, he had be a full-fledged S Rank threat, his appearance now resembling a giant of over twenty meters, covered on fish-like scales, muscles, and whose head had be the ugly and monstrous head of a giant white shark, showing off his sharp fangs.


    He no longer had a sword, but he had simply materialized two anchor-like weapons made out of ck spiritual water he summoned and could control at whim through this form!


    A cocky smile emerged on his face, ncing at Maria from afar, his enormous body floating in midair with utmost ease, emanating a strong Aura.


    "Do you see now, the might of my Goddess?!" Heughed. "You might have taken that hit, but these onesing right after won''t be that easy to block!"


    "You''re not channeling just the powers of the Evil God! What is going on with the Divine Oasis Spirit?! Are you stealing her powers?!" Maria roared furiously, shing against the former Pdin, now turned into an ugly shark-like humanoid abomination!


    CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!


    CRAAASH!


    "Hahahaha! What are you even talking about?!" The shark manughed; his two anchors made of corrupted water fused together into a huge trident. "This is all but the power of the Goddess of Water! [Abyssal Ocean Trident]!"


    The enormous trident reached Maria in a split of a second, her hands swiftly grabbing the entire thing, as ck lightning started sparkling from her body.


    CRAAASH!


    "Huh?!"


    The shark man was shaken as he saw Maria easily grab his magic weapon and then imbue her ck lightning into the weapon, letting the water do the rest!


    "Fine, I''ll just ask questions to your soul once you''re fried into some nice seafood."n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om


    ZAAAP!


    BOOOM!


    A huge explosion of lightning engulfed her foe, his entire body electrifying and frying alive, her ck lightning held incredible power as she had inherited it from devouring a Divine Spirit created by Thor as a vessel of his mind, allowing him to descend into the mortal world without wasting energy!


    It was, in fact, a Divinity!


    "UUUAAAGGHHH…!"


    With an agonizing scream, the former pdinmander flew several meters away from Maria at the same time as his enormous arms kept regenerating, new fleshy tendrils emerging, covering his gigantic arms with scales, as the waters he controlled shapeshifted into huge gauntlets with sharp spikes!


    "DIEEEE!"


    The sharp-spiked gauntlets shed against Maria at lightning speed, their force being equal to a meteor descending from the skies. It wasn''t a S Rank monster for nothing!


    However, Maria''s lightning kept spreading across her entire body, her appearance suddenly gave sudden change, her hair became blonde, zapping with lightning, her eyes became pure ck with golden irises, and her dress became ck and gold, her white skin gaining golden-colored lighting-shaped tattoos!


    "Let''s try something different for a change…"


    Ding!


    [You have activated the [Divine Thunder Spirit Body: Lv3] Skill!]


    [Your body has undergone a radical change; lightning is coursing through youpletely! Due to the absence of other strong Body-type Skills, the Elemental Effects of this Skill have been amplified!]


    [All Stats, Movement Speed, Reaction Speed, and Attack Speed have increased by +100%, Lightning Attribute Magic Power has further increased by +250%!]


    [An Aura of [Chaotic Divine Lightning] is being generated by your body, which constantly producesrge quantities of volts and electricity!]


    "[Abyssal Death Lightning Fist]!"


    CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!


    CRAAASH!


    "S-So fast! I can''t even catch up to her?!"


    Maria blocked the strikes of the abominable shark man with her lightning speed fists, flying around his body so fast it looked as if she was teleporting, her fist suddenly overflowing with so much golden and ck lightning that she unleashed it all into a cannon!


    "[Chaotic Lightning Cannon]!"


    ZAAAP!


    The former pdinmander waspletely overwhelmed, most of his body charred, yet new flesh kept emerging from within the burned flesh, discarding it as his body shape constantly became more and more animal-like and monstrous.


    A second shark head emerged, and another pair of enormous, muscr arms, while his legs disappeared, turning now into a long swimming tail!


    "RAAAAHHH!!!"


    However, Maria kind of liked that…


    "You''re one tough nut to crack… An ideal sand bag!"


    CRAAASH!
