Ascension of the Sylvan Cosmos

Chapter 118. Reinforcements and Three Sylvans.

After the battle that lasted a few more minutes, Flor stood on the <Lignified Wall>, looking down at the corpses of the 7 Stormbird Riders and their mounts. Liu Shu's roots slowly coiled around them and dragged them underground, where they were dissolved and digested by the World Tree.

Because of Liu Shu's current range for the <Root Manipulation> skill, escaping was almost impossible for them. Even if they flew, they would be bombarded by <Mother Of Thousand Flower Field>.

Hence, fighting while using Liu Shu's powerful attacks and immobilization techniques, the injured Stormbird Riders were nothing but prey with tough skin.

Flor's and Ignatia's ranged attacks were strong enough to dictate the battle's direction as well. Then, with hundreds of creatures attacking them, regardless of their defense, they were bound to fail and fall.

Once the cacophony of sounds created by the battlefield stopped, the leaders quickly started checking on who on their side was missing.

Thallus said, his slow tone a bit sad. "Four. Young. Died."

Flor looked at Ignatia and saw her sighing. "32 here. Our large numbers made it a bit more challenging to dodge, incurring more casualties."

Flor nodded and muttered with a sigh. "So, we lost 4 Myconids, 32 Fire Ants, and 14 Rose Fairies."

The casualties were incredibly low if one took into account who they had just fought. The <Stormbird Army> people were trained professionals who knew about war. While their squad captain was not that clever, that didn't take away from their overall ability to fight.

If the squad captain had been more competent, then it would've been almost impossible to stop them like they did. Fighting that team of 10 people, unless they were defending and using the walls as a resource, would be pretty difficult.

Ignatia approached Flor and asked. "Why are those girls not coming back yet?"

Flor looked around and frowned when she didn't see them. "Let's go look. Amapola, you are in charge. Ignatia and I are going to check on the Sylvans."

Amapola quickly nodded and began guiding everyone and giving orders to the people.

A few moments earlier, in the forest, the three Sylvans had been fighting against the three Level 12 humans for a while.

Eventually, using their regeneration and many other powerful advantages, they defeated the three of them and went to help the three Level 10 ants, who were locked in a tense fight against the three Level 10 Stormbirds. Thankfully, these ants were all E- Rank. If not, they would've died a long time ago.

After the Sylvans arrived to help, the battle had no wild turns and was won shortly after. The combination of the three Sylvans, Verdantia's summons, and the three Fire Ants was strong enough to overwhelm the <Stormbirds>.

After the battle ended, the three ants fell to the ground, exhausted. Verdantia said, "Quickly, feed them the 10 Phoer Berries. Those +2500 Phoer will revitalize them greatly."

Cinderielle approached them and opened a pouch she had tied on her waist. In there, there were quite a few of those berries. They were relatively small for a human, around the size of grapes. Therefore, she could carry quite a lot of them in the pouch.

Tempestria looked at her own body, which was filled with lacerations, as Cinderielle fed the exhausted ants and asked. "What about us?"

Verdantia said seriously. "No need to rush. We are not in a critical situation because our transformations have healed us. Liu Shu's berries have an anti-bleeding agent and quick wound-regenerating properties. If we use them later when we are more critically injured, they will have better effects."
