Chapter 1256 The Forest Is Under Attack!
-----
Surrounding the enormous walls made of stone and wood around the Forest of Beginnings, dozens of gray- and azure-colored portals were opening, constantly pouring out hundreds of Undead Monsters from within them.
Giant Phantasmal Creatures, Skeleton Beasts of all shapes and sizes, and Giant Zombies, mostly humanoid, which were wearing bone armor and weapons, charged constantly from these portals. Their presence alone spread a foul decaying aura and phantasmal flames, attempting to consume the strong Domain of Nature that Planta had worked so hard to spread.
However, the Nature Domain was just that, as it was also part of the Forest of Beginnings and its endless, ever-growing life.
Although the Demon King of Miasma had managed to destroy the Forest once, thanks to Planta and her friends help, they were able to revive the entire forest, now becoming its core, the gigantic young Yggdrasil Tree, Planta's "true body" sat still, silently, like a mighty tower or better, a behemoth.
The Undead marched forward, only to be hit by invisible waves of Spiritual Energies constantly released by the tree and its Domain. Hundreds if not thousands of Lesser and Normal Elemental Spirits materialized one after another, their lives were short, but they sacrificed themselves to protect the focal point of their domain.
Fire Spirits exploded, burning through the Undead, Sunlight Spirits released rays of sunlight before dissipating, Earth Spirits transformed the earth and created pits, temporarily burying the undead monsters under the earth, and so on.
There were even Water and Ice Spirits, which appeared in large quantities to fight, releasing floods of cold water that then froze and ended turning the undead into frozen statues, later shattered by the stone spirits taking the form of giants made of stone.
However, at the end of the day, they were the most basic of spirits, the strongest ones required Planta or a strong spirit magician to be summoned, and the basic spirits born within the Domain of Nature in the Forest of Beginnings just weren't enough.
"Continue attacking! Don't stop!"
"We're breaking in! Destroy this wretched place!"
"Burn every tree we see!"
The Undead charged into the outer forest, burning the trees surrounding the walls and trying to completely destroy nature with everything they had.
However, the trees started moving on their own, eventually, trembling and roaring as if they were alive, giant Ents surged from the ground, noticing their burning branches, they started fighting back after having a rude awakening.
Gaston, Silvera, and Elios, the three Leaders of three different Guilds, Players that composed toe Knight Alliance, a Guild Alliance that once attempted to raid the Forest of Beginnings and were slaughtered miserably had come back, allying the Undead Faction that was invading the world of Arcadia, they had willingly become enemies of all other Players.
However, when offered so much power, who would ever reject such a good offer, especially when progression through the game became increasingly harder after all the penalties they received?
If anything, this was an opportunity they couldn't waste!
Yet would the inhabitants of the Forest of Beginnings let their sacred lands be trampled by the combined forces of Players and Undead?
"There they are there's Players working with the Undead!"
"Just like before, the Demon Kings are recruiting evil players to work for them..."
Acorn and Nieve appeared above the walls, accompanied by hundreds of warriors from the forest.
And behind them, a beautiful fairy princess overflowing with a pink aura nodded.
"It looks like the army is much stronger than before too! A-Are they the same players that invaded us before?"
Florie, the Fairy Princess, had grown a lot since the last time she fought alongside Planta, now having matured more, her magic powers had advanced greatly.
"Yeah Florie!" said Acorn. "We'll have to put all our efforts into defeating them..."
"But if we don't get inside the gates, the undead will never stop coming," said Nieve. "We have to kill the bosses inside!"
"Hmm, but with all these monsters in front, charging towards there will be impossible," Florie squinted her eyes. "Queen Titania entrusted me with leading the army, I cannot disappoint her... we must devise a strategy. Until then, we must defend! Let's support the Ent Army protecting the forest in the meantime!"
