Ascension of the Sylvan Cosmos

Chapter 102. [Living Wood City]'s strength.

The Earth Sylvan's powers were enormous, and it showed. While the Rose Fairies, Fire Ants, and Myconids used ranged attacks to bother the group of five, Cinderielle, Verdantia, and Ignatia fought in a close-range battle with them.

However, the Level 9 summons of the Earth Sylvan had become Level 10, which increased their stats to a ridiculous degree. The attacks that previously injured their rocky bodies would now create slightly deep scratch marks and tickle them.

Similar to living beings, Summons also benefited from <Energy Cycles>. Their systems functioned similarly to monsters, having an overall <Tier> and <Level> that modified their strength.

Thankfully for Ignatia, Cinderielle, and Verdantia, Liu Shu was around them. Her 10% buff from the <Defender> title and her defensive structures were powerful enough to become a threat to these people.

Especially the Earth Sylvan, who was the main focus of the World Tree as they fought.

"You pesky little saplings, don't you understand that fighting with me is a losing battle!? Talent is nothing in front of absolute power! <Earth Spike>!"

The Earth Sylvan stomped the ground, creating a massive spike that struck Cinderielle on the stomach and sent her flying backward. Yet, when she attacked, Verdantia took the chance to summon several vines around her that quickly began whipping the Earth Sylvan's body with terrible strength.

With her staff increasing her Anima stat by 50, her attacks hit with terrifying power.

BANG! BANG! BANG!

The Earth Sylvan's face twisted in pain as her Phoer Body Shards plummeted with each hit that broke the outer rocky layer protecting her.

Verdantia's voice, deep and intimidating like nature, spread around. "You are going to die for attacking Liu'er. Any other result won't matter."

The Earth Sylvan's ordered her three Level 10 summons to protect her, blocking the vines that attacked her and suffering serious injuries in the meantime.

The shield-bearing male human that had been taking care of the Wall's giant trees shouted. "Send those Summons to deal with the World Tree! Once that one is gone, the battle is won!"

The Earth Sylvan only hesitated for a moment. 'I just need to destroy the trunk and keep the core as intact as possible to avoid its death.'

Thinking about that, she used a skill for the golems to lose a bit of their thick outer armor and increase their movement speed. "GO!"

When they approached, Liu Shu actually didn't change the targeting of the <Mother Of Thousand Flower Field> and kept focusing on the two Aether Human users, keeping them as occupied as possible so that their ranged attacks wouldn't hurt anybody. The two trees on the walls that were in range were attacking one Shield Bearing human each, and combined with the almost 90 sub-Level-10 monsters, the humans were constantly being injured and losing Phoer Body Shards.

One of the human Aether users barked a laugh. "That World Tree is too compassionate! Does it really think that at Level 6, she can deal with three Level 10 summons!?"

"IDIOT! PAY ATTENTION!"

"Huh?"

The second he got distracted, Ignatia appeared in front of him, her compound insect eyes locked on his face with terrible killing intent behind them.

The fire-aether user's face hardened, and quickly tried to create a fire shield. However, the Ant Queen's flaming punch got imbued with all of her power and shot forward like a streaking comet, piercing through the hastily created defense and squarely landing on his abdomen.
