BXBX NOVEL Chapter 925 Fungus Buster
After Yusagi composed herself, Luna decided to tell the actual conditions that must be met. However, Yusagi agreed without thinking since her life belonged to her Empress.
Therefore, Luna then made Yusagi her first contracted beastkin.
\'My faithful servant is now my pet? His spirit connection is different from mine to Ely.\' Luna felt that the spirit contract ritual she had just performed was far different from her relationship with Elysia.
\'Why a pet? Our bond is clearly different because our relationship is woven under divinity and sacredness.\' Elysia coughed a little.
\'Fufu, so our relationship is special? Um, I know about that. However, if I die, then Yusagi will also go with me, huh...\' Luna grasped her hand.
\'Yes, and I would never let a situation like that happen to you. You are already mine.\' Elysia declared it emphatically. It took her a few seconds to realize that it could be ambiguous.
\'Yes, yes, I am yours. I will be very happy if you call me mama once in a while~ You are my master, owner, but also my daughter.\' Luna answered in a cheerful tone.
\'...\' Elysia decided not to answer.
"Now your life is tied to mine. Don\'t regret your decision in the future." Luna put her hand on Yusagi\'s head.
"My pleasure is to be by your side and serve you, my lady." Yusagi looked up like a knight who had just sworn an oath to the ruler.
"I\'ll introduce you to the other members of the pantheon later. We need to prepare a lot before noon. Let\'s go." Luna walked away. She asked Elysia and the Goddesses for permission via telepathy before leaving.
Yusagi stood up and bowed respectfully to the Goddesses before rushing after her owner.
\'Luna intends to create a new religion for real, Ely. She will exercise her supreme authority before abdicating. Maybe, it will be more than what those dwarves did.\' Elena could guess the unspoken.
\'It\'s their freedom. It\'s good for their people\'s mental peace to have a Patron Goddess, but we won\'t be responsible for them? Elysia didn\'t mind if that was really going to happen.
\'The other beastkin rulers will definitely come here immediately when they receive sudden notification of this region\'s new Emperor.\' Rhea nodded slightly.
\'Fufu, hopefully, they don\'t mistake Luna marrying the dragon king to become her Emperor.\' Lifa chuckled inside.
\'Seeing our mature vixen, she will definitely write an ambiguous letter to the other rulers so they can come here as soon as possible.\' Elena folded her arms and leaned back.
\'Anyway, Ely, what are we going to do now? Luna\'s business gets done faster and she will be very busy taking care of many things until noon.\' Lifa put a sip of her tea.
\'Luna asked for a little help when she announced her abdication to her people. How about we go to that forest town to see the girls saving everyone from the parasites?\' Elysia asked with great enthusiasm.
\'We also need to see what Doll One is up to. She cannot be under our full supervision because of her body constitution.\' Rhea proposes an additional agenda.
\'Pretty good, but we shouldn\'t be helping the girls in their fight unless it\'s essential. They had received a lot of buffs that increased their overall combat power, and it was supposed to let them progress gradually. It\'s not just you who need to train and gain a lot of experience, Ely.\' Elena agreed with the proposal but had to remind Elysia of the most important thing.
\'Alright, we\'ll just be watching from a separate dimension and will only get involved if it\'s absolutely necessary. I want to see everyone\'s progress.\' Elysia nodded in understanding.
Lifa and Rhea exchanged glances and then stood up. They opened a dimensional gap and then stood aside.
\'We\'re going to our destination via different dimension space. No one can see or detect us unless we allow them to.\' Lifa motioned for Elysia and Elena to enter.
"Let\'s go." Elena extended her hand to Elysia.
"En." Elysia took Elena\'s hand and entered a different dimension with Lifa and Rhea\'s escort.
Meanwhile, the battle situation in Hankala Forest Town was heating up. Over half of the population has been infected with a mind control parasite.
Sylvia slashed at the green mushroom-like thing above the infected beastkin\'s head. "This is my hundredth!"
After seeing the fungus wither, she pulled it out with her dark magic.
*Pluck*
The fungus was ripped out by the root, leaving a slight wound on the wolf beastkin\'s head, but his crown head\'s fur was also ripped out because Sylvia was in a bit of a rush.
"Oops." Sylvia covered her mouth and took a step back. She unintentionally gave that poor wolf a bit of baldness.
"Sylvi, we must hurry, or the parasites will continue to spread!" While controlling her wind and lightning magic, Vanessa was reminded to decapitate the green fungus and pull them out of the victims\' heads.
"Ugh, Vanessa and Yuuki are superior in this game. However, Ai is the real threat in the competition." Sylvia heaved a sigh and rushed to hunt other prey to increase her score.
"Hmm..." Gio just watched at the back line while folding his arms.
"Graa!" An infected beastkin tried to lunge at the dragon man. Still, it was like an insect trying to hit a super hard immovable boulder.
"..." Gio pulled the infected beastkin like a kitten. He pinched the green fungus and removed it from the infected head. After that, he put the unconscious victim aside.
He didn\'t go to offense like the girls because he had to protect the forest town. Cherub also received a similar assignment somewhere in a rear defensive position. They needed to protect the remaining beastkins from the infected assault. No one could go past them!
"Ice rain." Yuuki released an arrow and split it into hundreds of smaller ice arrows at the hordes of infected beastkins.
She controlled her ice arrows with her mind and froze her target\'s legs before using the rest of the ice arrows to freeze the fungus.
She was careful in her every attack because her arrows could pierce the victims\' heads and kill them. Because of that, she had to paralyze their movements first.
*Snap*
Yuuki snapped her fingers, making the frozen green fungus crumble along with the collapsing ice. She rushed to the deepest forest to chase Ai because she wanted to win this small competition.
Evelyn kicked down a beastkin that was about to ambush Ella from above. She landed on the ground and asked worriedly when she noticed Ella struggling a bit about something. "Ella, are you all right?"
"Thank you. I\'m just not used to having the strength of a Saint level or above, Eve. Everything\'s fine." Ella smiled, reassuring her friend that everything was still under control. She then carefully removed the green fungus from the infected beastkin\'s head using her holy magic.
"Yes, apart from the blessings, this tremendous power comes from within, not external factors such as our divine battlesuit. With this power, we must eliminate the parasites quickly and prevent their spread. Ella, let\'s go." Evelyn controlled four flying daggers with her wind magic and went deeper into the forest area to eliminate more parasites.
"Un! Light sabers." Ella summoned ten blades of light that floated around her before rushing after Evelyn. They work together in a two-person team because they need to protect and take care of each other.
After all, they were the weakest in the group and didn\'t want to bother the others by holding them back. Furthermore, it would be embarrassing if they returned to Elysia and the Goddesses in a miserable state after receiving many blessings and buffs.
At that moment, Ai was at the forefront, using shadow movement and super-fast attack techniques. She instantly slayed every parasite within her sight and let the beastkin fall unconscious on the ground.
She looked up to spot Helen, and Fortuna\'s location, then rushed southeast. Her primary target was to find the exact location of the source of the parasites. The Misharan Tree must be eradicated as soon as possible to stop the spread from the roots.
\'The Misharan Tree isn\'t huge, but it spreads out quite widely with tons of vines. Don\'t go alone because there is a reason why Tifa asked us to defeat the final boss as a raid party. Well, Fortuna and I won\'t get involved unless necessary.\' Nell reminded Ai because she felt that Elysia\'s twin would do almost everything to win this little game.
\'I know...\' Ai stopped at a tree branch when she saw the vines entangling the other trees in the distance. \'Are those vines part of the source of the parasites?\'
\'Yes, the vines. Its primary body is at the center of the vine\'s area. Don\'t go any deeper before the others arrive. However, if you are curious, you can try to enter and it will focus on attacking you. It already feels threatened so good luck, hehe~\' Nell chuckled playfully.
\'I might as well test that tree first.\' Ai felt she couldn\'t be infected with parasites since she was a spirit. She turned into a flash of shadow and went past those vines.
*Swissh*
The vines could sense the foreign entity entering their territory. Spore powder spewed out from the hidden flower buds, showering Ai like sparkle.
"Eh?" Ai was surprised to find she had lost her direction. She was trapped in an illusion.
Since the fungus was slaughtered en masse, the Misaharan Tree felt threatened and would kill anything that approached further.
Thousands of vines around Ai suddenly moved and attacked her at once.
"!!!" Ai felt her movements become so slow and heavy. She dodged several vines and then flew up into the sky.
\'See, you will be at a disadvantage if you approach any further on your own. Your opponent will focus on attacking you alone. We need to find its tree heart and destroy it, or the Misharan Tree will never die.\' Nell pointed out that her remark was correct.
