Chapter 580 Exploring The Red Dragons Territory
Ding!
[The power of the [Yggdryad\'s Divine Spiritual Presence] Skill has been automatically activated!]
[By consuming 100 MP per second, your very Divine Spiritual Presence changes your surroundings.]
[Dozens of Tiles are transforming into [Spiritual Forest Tiles]!]
[The Effects of several other Skills have activated automatically; you and your allies have received several types of buffs to your Stats and HP and MP Regeneration Speed.]
Ding!
[You have activated the [Spiritual Sacred Sanctuary] Skill!]
[A protective sanctuary made out of your own Mana and Spiritual Energy is protecting you and your friends from all damage.]
[However, MP and Spiritual Energy are being constantly consumed…]
My steps covered my surroundings as the burning and dry rocks surrounding us were quickly covered on fresh soil, grass and flowers growing out of it in mere instants. At the same time, a mystical, spiritual barrier formed surrounding our group.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOOOM!
Gigantic fireballs constantly bombarded my Spiritual Sacred Sanctuary barrier seconds after we arrived at our next destination, the burning Lava Pits within the Dragon Nest, where the Lesser Fire Dragons and their Queen resided.
Their fireballs were really strong, being so potent they could easily one-shot most Level 90 to 100 Players if they took the this directly. Thankfully, there were my barriers to help everyone. Rita and Mark also had their own innate spirit barriers, Lily too, but they preferred to be protected by my own, while fighting using all of their might on offense.
While I took care of defense, healing, and support, they charged into the frontlines without hesitating, quickly beginning to slash and pummel the Lesser Fire Dragons, most of the beasts being over five meters tall, resembling huge, wingless wyverns.
"RAAAAARRR!"
The Lesser Fire Dragons congregated themselves on large, separated groups of a dozen each, making three total groups, together they made over thirty of these beasts!
"It seems they are quite intelligent." Mark noticed. "The group in the backline only dedicates themselves to attack at long-ranged distance, while the one on the front attacks mostly physically and provokes us to attack."
"And the midline seems to be both at the same time? Distance attacking and sometimes mixing into the frontlines." I noticed as well. "Well, the best way to break through their defenses is by flying. They can\'t fly after all! Nieve, do you think you can disperse their group with magic?"
Nieve was currently with everyone else fighting in the frontlines, intercepting blows, and slashing at the powerful Lesser Dragons. Her ice magic was effective against dragons, but these fire dragons had really strong blazing auras, most of her ice was melted before it could hit them.
Because of that, she was limited only to fight within my Terrain and Territory, as it was the only areas where she wouldn\'t lose too much power, because my Terrain was able to overwrite the heat of this area\'s terrain.
"I think I can, as long as I transform!" She nodded. "So, Lady Planta…!"
"Sure! Go on then!" I nodded with a smile, as I conjured several spirits around us, imbuing their powers into my allies through Spirit Infusion, this included the Fairy Spirits I could now summon.
FLASH! FLASH! FLASH! FLASH! FLASH!
Dozens of Frost Fairy Spirits, unique to be summoned when Nieve is within my range, merged into her body, and quickly awakened her powers once more.
Ding!
[By merging with her own Spiritual Projection summoned through your Spirit Magic, [NPC: Nieve] has undergone a special transformation!]
[NPC: Nieve] has met the requirements and has been temporarily granted the power of the [Frost Fairy Princess] Title!]
[All of her Stats have increased by +100%, and her Ice Magic and Rapier Skills Attack Power and Conjuration Speed have increased by an additional +250% for 10 Minutes.]
FLAAAASH!
This was the form she would attain through fusing with her Spiritual Projection, something I was able to summon thanks to Titania\'s Blessing Skill and Spirit Magic, alongside her came an army of Frost Fairy Spirits, [Winter Knights] and [Winter Witches].
By combining their strength together with her, her magic grew even stronger. Imbuing Mana into her Magic Rapier, and then Spiritual Energy, her rapier suddenly grew to a tremendous size, more or less resembling a gigantic spear made of ice! And of course, her appearance became beautiful, even more regal, as she gained a dress of frost and a big and beautiful ice crown.
"The more I use this power, the more I get the hang of it!" Nieve roared, she quickly started gathering large quantities of Mana into her rapier, alongside the might of the Frost Fairy Spirits. "Now… [Ice Rapier Arts]: [Frozen Rose Garden]!"
FLAAASH!
Suddenly, a pseudo domain emerged around Nieve as everything surrounding the frontline group of Lesser Fire Dragons was covered on ice, and then, Nieve emerged with countless clones of herself made of Ice Essence, flashing through the entire beast, and slashing at its entire body consecutively! Her majestic movements and precise strikes made for a show by itself!
SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!
Alongside the large and deep wounds over the dragons\' bodies, large icicle spears, the surrounding ice flowers making the illusion of a garden made of ice started glowing, exploding with great intensity one after another, freezing body parts of the beasts!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM!
"Gryyyaaargh!"
"Shaaaahh!"
"Gryyeeegh?!"
The Lesser Red Dragons were quickly weakened. Five of them dying after Nieve went completely all-out, leaving a group of weakened ones that everyone else quickly took care of. Mark\'s blazing berserk blade I gifted him from a former invader of our territory swiftly cut down several of them into pieces.
Meanwhile Lily crushed them with her gigantic hammer, and Rita alongside Acorn distracted the ones in the back. Jenny supported everyone by weakening all dragons through poison and her swift movements and acid bullets.
Although we managed to pull through the first wave mostly, more Lesser Red Dragons continued joining the fight, emerging from the lava, and furiously hissing at us.
Of course, once I was done setting up enough Terrain Tiles, I quickly decided to step in, and do some catastrophe myself…
"[Water Spirit Call]! [Disastrous Rivers]! [Wrathful Ocean Waves]!"
SPLAAAAAASSSH!
