"It is a stationary enemy, but it can control and spawn lots of units. It also has the ability to absorb the energy that it infects the other party with. If I am not wrong, then the Dread Mansion would once again release Dread Apocalypse after twenty minutes if we get stacks of Dread." Adrian stated as he thought of the most plausible attack mode of the Dread Mansion.

"Wait! That attack earlier blew away all of our transformation and it is incredibly powerful as it almost destroyed Sanctuary. I cannot protect us from another attack just like that." Levin Cloud stated.

"I cannot use my elemental spells for ten minutes because of the attack earlier." Peridot stated as she is now limited to skills that are not of the elemental variety, but she has still access in her true form as it is just a form change. Her Ryujin form does not enhance her stats that much compared to Adrian and Levin Cloud's true form.

"I am out of undead knights and my curses cannot affect a core. I can still use my God Descent skill, which is a plus, but I would need to get closer to the core though." Creepysoo stated.

[The Tree of Life and Death has been unsummoned.]

The effects of the Tree of Life and Death has finally expired because of the powerful attack that the Dread Mansion did earlier. They are no longer as empowered as before, and they are now getting swarmed by numerous Dread Beasts. Adrian's hunch on the attack pattern of the Dread Mansion is actually spot on.

The Dread Mansion would release Dread Apocalypse on its first appearance when it absorbs the Dread energy that its victims accumulate from fighting its minions. This would greatly weaken or even outright kill its victim the first time. If that does not happen, then the Dread Mansion would release a swarm of Dread Beasts created from the souls of its victims.

Despite the advice from the Undead King Arthur, Adrian and the others are now at a lost on how to proceed. They thought that they would need to just go inside the Dread Mansion and destroy its core inside, but they did not expect a whole village to be the enemy. The core of the monster is not inside the mansion anymore but the entire mansion itself.

"I can still use holy attribute magic. I can get protect all of you until we reach the core." Levin Cloud stated.

"I still have my soulbounds which is good which means we can attack the core by flanking it." Adrian added.

"I can still use my body. I will carry Levin Cloud around while you deliver Creepysoo to the core." Peridot stated and all of them nodded as there is no time to argue.

Time is off the essence, and this is especially prevalent now. Adrian commanded Kanlaon to carry Creepysoo to the front while Levin Cloud and Peridot will protect them from flying Dread Beasts. Dodu will devour the Dread Beasts that are below them while Charon, Wisteria and Kimat will assist it.

Adrian will flank the Dread Mansion with Saena as they needed to make sure that it does not attack the others while they are on the way. Adrian would have teleported all of them, but the space was incredibly unstable to the point that using spatial spells might tear through reality itself. The very presence of the Dread Mansion makes space unstable as if it is trying to encroach on the very fabric of reality itself.

Adrian and Saena flew at a fast pace as they arrived at the side of the Dread Mansion. He summoned his bow armament and started to bombard the core with arrows made of mana. Adrian could not use any of his energies in this situation except for mana because of the effects of Dread Apocalypse. Fortunately, Saena could still release blasts of holy light that deals great damage to the core.

The Dread Mansion's attention suddenly shifted to Adrian and Saena as its gigantic dread aura arms tried to grab them. Adrian and Saena maneuvered with great finesse as they easily dodged the dread aura arms as they are not that fast. The volley of arrows and the rays of holy light did significant damage, but Adrian frowned upon seeing the health bar of the Dread Mansion.

Monster Name: Dread Village Core (Dread Mansion)

Level: 300

Tier: Semi – Transcendent

HP: 432%

MP: 82%

Description: The previous form of the Dread Village has now become its main core. The core has a powerful automatic defense mechanism that will prioritize its survival. It is always overflowing with Dread Aura that any being that comes close to it will definitely be afflicted with Dread.

Status: [Overstuffed]

The Dread Mansion is currently Overstuffed, and it means that it has fed on such powerful and delicious energy that it actually grew larger. The excess health is not buffed by the defenses of the Dread Village as it is treated like Charon's excess health barrier. It is also one of the reasons why Adrian and Saena dealt great damage towards it despite only using normal attacks.

Adrian looked at his friends and saw that they actually delivered Creepysoo safely near the Dread Mansion. The Dread Mansion seem to have noticed their presence as well as it started to shift its dread aura hands at them.

"Saena, Grace of the Sun!" Adrian commanded as Saena flew high into the skies as she started to charge energy.

Adrian did not stand idly by and used Shooting Star until all of his essences are gone. He managed to fire ten Shooting Stars that crashed on the walls of the Dread Mansion. The damage is only normal because Adrian could not apply nether energy on his skills which is why the undead enemy is not reacting that much.

The Dread Mansion might not be reacting much, but it did get its attention once more. The Dread Mansion saw Adrian as a persistent bug and sent swarms of flying Dread Beasts towards him.
