"You useless rats, stop wasting your time with them! Capture her! Don't let her take him away!"
The Cultist ordered the wave of endless miasma emerging from his own body, as an army of dozens of Aberrations ran towards us in that very moment!
However, I had just the right skill to protect Ambil from these critters!
"[Spiritual Sacred Sanctuary]!"
FLAAAASSHH!!
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…]
"[Spiritual Infusion]!"
At the same time as the barriers were created, I manipulated Spiritual Energies flowing into my body from the Terrain surrounding me, alongside a dozen Lesser Spirits, fusing them into the barrier protecting Ambil.
FLASH!
Ding!
[You have strengthened the [Spiritual Sacred Sanctuary] protecting Ambil!]
[Durability and Defenses have increased by +250%!]
"GRYYYARGH!"
The Miasmic Aberrations reached Ambil, attacking him with their claws. The reinforced barrier held off well enough, giving us the time to counterattack against these beasts.
"[Spirit Sword Fusion]!"
FLAAASH!
Gram glowed brightly, as I activated one of its Special Abilities, its aura erupted with countless colors, the radiant brilliance of spiritual energy encompassing my body as well.
[You have exchanged -1000 Durability to activate [Radiant Divine Spiritual Heroic Sword: Gram Freyja] Special Ability [Spiritual Heroic Sword Fusion]!]
[While the effect is activated, it is possible to unleash the powerful [Spiritual Heroic Sword Fusion Aura], which will increase all Spirit and Blade Skills Power and Effects by +300%, Increase All Stats by +30%, alongside allowing the user to summon [Spirit Sword Illusions] which have a high chance of increasing the strikes of the sword against a foe by 5 times!]
[Duration: 10 Minutes.]
"RAAAH!"
With a ferocious roar, I jumped towards the aberrant creatures, constantly swinging my sword as I activated several Heroic Sword Techniques on quick succession, this even allowed me to increase my stats even further through a special technique.
Ding!
[The Effects of the [Heroic Swordsmanship's Footwork] Technique have been activated, AGI and DEX have increased by +200%!]
By moving while constantly changing the stance of my weapon, I was able to channel the Blade Energies into my entire body, increasing my Agility and Dexterity through the roof!
"[Divine Sword Slash]!"
SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!
Dozens of slashing attacks descended upon the monsters, slicing through their miasmic bodies, this time, each attack was multiplied into five, increasing the damage dealt tremendously!
CLASH! CLASH! CRAAASH!
"Gryyaargh!"
Several of the Miasmic Aberrations gave out agonizing shrieks before their bodies were turned into ashes! However, more kept coming, surrounding me!
"[Dragon Spirit Summon]!"
FLASH! FLASH! FLASH! FLAAASH!
My Dragon Heart glowed brightly as four draconic spirits emerged from within, the four dragons that we had battled back in the Dwarven Mountain materialized, with their semi-transparent and glowing bodies, representing their elemental affinities as spirits.
"ROOAARR!"
"SHAAAAH!"
"RUOORRR!"
"GRUOOHH!"
The Blue Dragon King, the Venomous Viper Drake Queen, the Red Dragon Queen, and the Cave Drake King emerged, their enormous bodies towering over the Miasmic Aberrations as their elemental attacks instantly started to push them back!
Explosive blazing breaths made of infernal flames, a shadow breath made of darkness, hundreds of spears made of crystalized poison, and swords composed of crystals and metals, their devastating attacks swiftly started to weaken our foes.
"Gryyyarrgghhh…!" One of the aberrations suddenly crawled towards me, its arms fusing together into a gigantic black and gooey hand, attempting to grab me with it!
CRASH! CRASH! CRASH! CRAAAASSH!!!
However, before I could react in time, a huge tail made of darkness and malice energies descended, crushing the entire beast several times until it was left completely torn to shreds!
"Phew, I almost didn't made it. Make sure to watch your back!"
Rita had saved me, as her magic had progressed into completely new forms. Her darkness now capable of transforming and summoning the parts of a dark dragon, having become a Draconian Elf might have been the reason behind such new magic powers.
"Yeah, I'll be careful!"
I quickly covered by body with several layers of spirit wood armor and golden Yggdragon Scales, as I ran towards the dozens of Aberrations to strike them down, while looking for the Cultist, wherever he was.
"[Yggdragon's Flames]!"
I summoned golden flames encompassing light, life, and nature within them, covering my two weapons as I unleashed a storm of slashing attacks, devastating five Aberrations who were incinerated into ashes!
"I guess they are still weak to my main element… Now where's the culprit behind this?!"
I kept looking around, slashing the beasts, until I finally noticed where he was. His figure standing above one of the houses nearby, glaring at us down.
He didn't seemed all that motivated to fight us head-on, instead constantly summoning aberrations. Was he told to do this or is he doing it himself?
And why did they came to kill Ambil? I mean what can they even win from that? He hasn't done anything to anyone other than going into bankruptcy…
Unless they know of his connection with Hephaestus Divine Forge?!
"To think the Aberrations are not enough…" The Cultist spoke, his eyes glowing bright red. "[Miasmic Fusion]!"
FLUOOOSH!
He raised his strange hands as the endless wave of miasma started to converge together into a single sphere of gooey and deadly liquid, and then transforming into something larger.
Ding!
[The [Corrupted Miasmic Cultist Chimera: ???: Lv250] has activated the [Miasmic Fusion] Skill! By fusing large quantities of Miasma together, a Greater Miasmic Aberration has been summoned!]
CLAAASH!
The beast fell into the ground, its enormous body, of over twenty meters, overflowed with a black and dark purple aura, countless red eyes spread across its gooey existences, several heads popped up from its neck.
"GROOOAARRR!"
FLAAASH!
The beast instantly decided to target me, reaching me, and rising its enormous claws, swinging them down like a gigantic black hammer and striking with everything it had!
BAAAAMMM…!
"Ugh…!"
The impact alone was tremendous, the shockwave it produced forced me to step back, as I felt my entire body beginning to feel tremendous pain, the miasma had infiltrated my insides again, trying to eat me from the inside out.
