Chapter 671 Destroying The Invaders
While maintaining a specific set of footwork while holding a heroic sword, it is possible to enhance my DEX and AGI by +200%! It was an amazing new technique that I acquired after the Skill reached Level 2.
However, its effects ended the very moment I stopped doing that specific footwork movements. Nonetheless, it was a very useful buff to enhance my precision and movement speed whenever I truly needed.
And lastly, Holy Ascent was a very powerful long-ranged sword attack that unleashed a wave of divine light, it was specifically made to slay large quantities of monsters at once, but it sufficed well enough to slay those three Level 130 Liches.
Thanks to the buffs I acquire while being in my Forest, or near it, my stats have skyrocketed to the five digits, so my attack power might be comparable to a min-maxed berserk at around Level 200…
It has many conditions, and once I step out of my forest, those buffs become much smaller because I need to expand the terrain and all, but yeah, it\'s pretty broken, isn\'t it?
"Graaaahhh!"
The army of Undead noticed their three lich leaders perishing and immediately set their empty eyes into me, rushing towards me as fast as they could.
Their levels varied from Level 80 to Level 150, but they were still "mob" monsters, that weren\'t exactly sub-bosses, or bosses, their stats were much lower than the liches.
Well, even the liches died in one hit…
"[Divine Sword Slash]! [Holy Ascent]!"
I greeted the incoming Undead by transforming my Gaia\'s All-Purpose Tool into a Second Sword, and swung both of them at the same time, unleashing a devastating storm of slicing light slashes.
SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! BOOOOMMM!!!
The monsters were blown off into pieces, the Undead instantly turned into ashes, even the Level 150 Bone Beasts, which there were dozens, couldn\'t take more than two hits before breaking apart.
My Avatar\'s strength is just in a completely different level compared to my IRL body after all, did Thanatos really thought he could even stop me as long as I was in my territory?
At this point, this feels like just an EXP fest for me and all my friends and subjects, everyone in my Kingdom\'s going to level up like crazy.
And because my terrain keeps expanding, fused with other Skills, their health points and mana points recover rapidly, and they\'re even being protected by mighty spirit barriers.
"Well, let\'s try this one as well…"
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…]
"Graaaah!"
"Gruoohh!"
"Raaaahh!"
A mass of Undead Zombies, Skeletons, and Bone Beasts rushed towards me, beginning to hit the barrier surrounding me, which glowed with a rainbow, reflective light.
Ding!
[The [Mad Skeleton Warrior: Lv147] has dealt 2634 Damage to your Barrier!]
[You have recovered 1243 HP and MP.]
[The [Bone Beast: Lv150] has dealt 3123 Damage to your Barrier!]
[You have recovered 2003 HP and MP.]
[The [Poisonous Zombie: Lv122] has dealt 1938 Damage to your Barrier!]
[You have recovered 954 HP and MP.]
[…]
My HP and MP kept regenerating endlessly as their damage turned into energy to fuel my Skills. At the same time, another Skill kept spreading spiritual grass, flowers, and trees everywhere.
Ding!
[The effects of the [Yggdryad\'s Divine Spiritual Presence: Lv10 (Fused Skill)] have been activated, by consuming 100 MP per second, [Spiritual Forest Tiles] will be created alongside the [Spirit Farm Terrain]!]
[Your [Spiritual Forest Tiles] are overtaking the [Poisonous Nether Tiles] spread by the Undead.]
[Spiritual Energy and Mana is constantly surging from the Tiles, restoring your Health, Mana, and Spiritual Energy!]
[Several Skills are further boosting you and your allies Stats!]
[Because their [Poisonous Nether Tiles] have been overtaken, the Undead Army is growing weaker! All their Stats decrease dramatically as they step into your Spirit Forest Tiles, or related Tiles and Terrain.]
"Graaah?!"
"Gryyaah!"
"Gruoohhh…!"
The Undead started falling to their knees one after another as they tried to step into our terrain, their stats dramatically decreasing the moment they touched the Spiritual Energy. This was working wonderfully!
I kept standing still as I spread out my Terrain and the Tiles containing them, while calling over the Spirit Ranch and opening a portal where many more Spirits emerged, which quickly started to retaliate, manifesting into colorful firework-like explosions of elemental magic.
Giant Sun Flares, Slicing Wind Tornadoes, Overwhelming Tsunamis, and Giant Stone Hands crushed and devastated the Undead Army, that kept pouring out of their portals endlessly.
BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM!
"RAAAAHHH! YOU DAMNED YGGDRASIL!"
And one of the Bosses from the two Nether Portals finally stepped in, immediately directing his rage against me. His size was tremendous, above thirty meters of height, resembling a Cyclops, but zombified, and wearing an armor of black bones.
Ding!
[The [Nether Portal Boss]: [Mad Zombie Cyclops Warrior: Lv100] has stepped out to battle you!]
[His presence among the Undead troops increase their Stats by +100%, and while he\'s surrounded by his army, his Stats increase by +200%!]
"DIE!"
He swung a gigantic black axe against me several times, clashing against my transparent barrier and letting out several sparks of black electricity. The moment he appeared the rest of the army went insane, despite his rather low level.
Boss-type Monsters are always much stronger than normal ones, even if they\'re Level 100, they could be comparable to a normal monster at Level 200, or something. Well, not like it would make much of a difference, even with all those stats.
CRASH! CRASH! CRASH! CRAAASH!
Ding!
[The [Mad Zombie Cyclops Warrior: Lv100] has dealt 5473 Damage to your Barrier!]
[You have recovered 2357 HP and MP.]
[The [Mad Zombie Cyclops Warrior: Lv100] has dealt 5284 Damage to your Barrier!]
[You have recovered 2122 HP and MP.]
[The [Mad Zombie Cyclops Warrior: Lv100] has dealt 5135 Damage to your Barrier!]
[You have recovered 2093 HP and MP.]
[…]
"W-Why am I not doing any damage?!" The boss suddenly glanced at his own axe, thinking there was something wrong with it.
"Well, I should get over with you." My two weapons glowed brightly, as I combined both my Heroic Swordsmanship with Spirit Farming Tool Mastery.
"Goodbye."
"Huh?!"
CRAAAASSSSHHH!!!
