Dozens of gelatinous tentacles froze from within. The ice spread wildly, sealing their surfaces in an instant.
A thick shell of ice formed with a crackle where the tentacles grew from Water Abyss Steed's body.
Bitter cold raced across its still-incomplete armor.
Only then did the ice-blue shock wave fully dissipate.
