Chapter 278: Individual and Group

However, the inherent pyro attribute of the Viridian Venom Flame World, combined with a lack of fertile soil and adequate water supply, significantly weakened the spell’s effects and reduced its area of effect when unleashed in this world.

Typically, even a minor forbidden spell possessed the staggering capability to envelop an entire continent.

Although the energy released by Lorianne’s Forest Fury spell had been reduced to that of a micro forbidden spell due to environmental conditions and planar law limitations, the spell’s impact remained profoundly impressive!

Besides, the reduction in the spell had a silver lining—it significantly shortened Lorianne’s incantation time.

Given the tactical needs of the battlefield at the main base, unleashing a spell with continent-spanning effects was not necessary.

The scaled-down version of this forbidden spell was still sufficient to cover all enemy forces around the fortress, even slightly exceeding the intended area.

Besides, Lorianne had yet to master intermediate and major forbidden spells.

An intermediate forbidden spell could devastate mid-sized planes, and a small, low-level world like the Viridian Venom Flame World would stand no chance against it.

Among the mages Lorianne was acquainted with, only Rank Six mages like her mentor were eligible to wield such formidable magic spells.

Even so, Feylis seldom invoked intermediate forbidden spells due to the extensive incantation required. Given the formidable nature of forbidden spells, the risk of suffering an elemental backlash was a price that not even a Rank Six mage like Feylis could afford to pay.

As for major forbidden spells or spells surpassing that category... it was presumed that only Rank Seven overmages within the Magus World had the capability to execute such transcendent and unparalleled magic spells.

Lorianne, with over nine thousand years dedicated to pursuing the truth, had once witnessed an overlord unleash their might on the edge of the Neisse Star Domain battlefield.

Yet, she had never witnessed a major forbidden spell firsthand.

Based on her knowledge of intermediate forbidden spells, she reckoned that major forbidden spells were capable of inflicting unimaginable damage and leaving lasting scars on a large-sized plane.

In the vast expanse of the Astral Realm, populated by billions of planes, those classified as large were exceedingly rare.

It was common to not find even a single large world among thousands complete planes governed by well-established laws.

For instance, out of a thousand and three complete planes within the Neisse Star Domain, Neisse World was the only one that qualified as a large world.

These major worlds were the cradles of overlords, beings of Rank Seven or higher, a league beyond the Viridian Venom Flame World.

The planar barriers of such worlds were also extremely formidable, penetrable only by beings of Rank Seven or higher.

The thought of forbidden spells powerful enough to devastate the environment and laws of these large worlds was... simply unimaginable to many.

Although the Forest Fury spell unleashed by Lorianne was reduced to a micro forbidden spell due to the unique planar traits and laws, it still significantly altered the dynamics of the battlefield at the main base.

Dendro elements would not materialize from nothing. Mages, as seekers of the truth, understood this well.

Upon seeing the surging sea of vines before them, a thoughtful mage would be able to deduce that these ground-emerging vines were undoubtedly linked to the plant creatures seen around the battlefield of the main base!

Amidst the coordinated efforts of nearly a hundred thousand plant creatures and other enslaved creatures, along with mages from the Magus Civilization, the fragments of seeds or leaves falling to the ground went largely unnoticed.

Neither the mecha army, the pyro elemental creatures, nor even the usually observant mages from the Magus World, paid heed to such minor details.

Yet these subtle details, often overlooked by most, were astutely leveraged by Lorianne to set the stage for the unleashing the Forest Fury forbidden spell.

This was the profound gap in strategic insight between a Rank Four mage like Lorianne and the lower-ranking mages engaged on the battlefield.

Despite her relatively recent promotion to Rank four, Lorianne demonstrated a remarkable ability to remain composed and effectively use little things to her advantage.

It was no surprise that she managed to gain the favor of Feylis the Rank Six mage.

With the support of the Forest Fury spell, the plant creatures under Sein’s command became increasingly aggressive.

Over twenty mechas were reduced to scrap metals by these rampaging plant creatures. Yet, Sein’s focus remained unwaveringly on the distinct pink mecha.

In lower-ranking conflicts, the outcome of individual engagements might not significantly impact the overall war. Yet, the overarching dynamics of warfare frequently influenced the chances of individual success or failure.

The combat capabilities of the pink mecha definitely surpassed a recently promoted Rank One mage like Sein.

Although Sein’s had many plant allies, the pink mecha was similarly supported by a group of lower-grade mechas.

However, under the influence of Lorianne’s forbidden spell, Sein gained the upper hand against the pink mecha.

The massive plant beneath him ensnared its opponent with its thick limbs, effectively restricting the enemy’s movements.

Alongside Sein’s relentless casting of spells, inflicting fresh damage upon the pink mecha, the other plant creatures, and expendable enslaved creatures surged forward too, decimating any enemies before them.

At this point, it was unlikely anyone would come to steal Sein’s kill.

Given his current position on the western front, the presence of mages was scarce.

Furthermore, with the fortress previously adopting a passive defense stance, it was normal that not many would be so near to the frontline.

Despite this, the Magus Civilization Army was beginning to mount a counteroffensive.

It remained uncertain whether it was the changing dynamics and momentum on the battlefield that influenced every participating mage like Sein, or if it was the efforts of each mage that swayed the course of battle.

Regardless, Sein believed that both played a role.

In any case, the Forest Fury spell had turned the tide of battle in favor of the Magus Civilization Army.

CLANG!

A final, forceful blow from a massive plant fist smashed the pink mecha’s metallic head in.

In the stormy elemental rain, the pink mecha’s movements slowly died down, signaling the end of its resistance.

Perched on the giant plant creature’s shoulder, Sein controlled its vine to tear open the mecha’s chest armor and extracted out a female humanoid figure approximately 1.6 meters tall from within.
