Epic of Summoner: Supreme Summoner System in the Apocalypse

Chapter 56 - Diving Into The Poisonous Forest!



-----

The beasts didn't know what exactly happened.

One second they were peacefully living within the wilderness of their world, a dangerous and wild world, but a peaceful one for them, a world where they hunted and fought, a world where the strongest governed and the weak hidden, a world where they were free to run away or fight, and then in another second they were sent into a completely alien world.

It was a world like many others in the infinity of the cosmos, one world with purple vegetation and creatures who had evolved from small masses of purple and poisonous slime-like flesh animals.

The world was covered in poison eons ago when a meteorite carrying a deadly amount of Poison Attribute Materials fell over the planet, decimating a large quantity of the life of the continent where it landed, while it decimated the rest with the deadly clouds of poison is released.

When the poison expanded, only a handful of these beings survived, amongst them… the masses of poisonous flesh.

They expanded and took all the niches of the deceased animals, and quickly evolved, absorbing the magic particles spread in the poisonous world and becoming gigantic creatures, welding all types of natural abilities that seemed magical compared to the past.

However, their age of prosperity came to an abrupt pause, as a part of such a world was suddenly split through space and time and landed into a completely alien world, Earth.

The creatures who had developed some kind of intelligence over the years cooperated to scout the area around the place, an army of such beings was sent by the Queen, only for all of them to end up being decimated by entities… entities they saw as Demons.

The Demons continued to slaughter their entire kin with powerful abilities, all of them possessing overwhelming power.

At some point, the Queen had to enter battle, as her kin was about to face extinction…

And although she tried hard, she couldn't fight against these demons that could fly and attack from a distance with things as deadly as fire or other types of strange elements, and the Queen faced her demise.

The rest of the creatures, seeing this massacre, decided to stay on guard around the forest, with their respective Queens and Kings, the poisonous flesh monsters remained on guard, while some had decided to escape into the strange structure that emerged before them, the mysterious temple…

Unaware of such a point of perspective, Gustav continued his journey through the forest, using his powerful summons, and using Ervas' Flight Skill to fly above the skies and have a high ground compared to the non-flying creatures.

However, even with his advantages, the beasts wouldn't go down without a fight.

-----

After having picked up some Skills and acquired a new boost to my capabilities, we finally stepped down into the Purple Forest, or Poisonous Forest, whatever name you want to give it.

We decided to use Ervas Flight once more, abusing this power to gain a high ground before the other ground-dwelling creatures, it seems that none of them had evolved the capability of flying.

Our peace only lasted 20 minutes as we delved and flew near the surface of the forest, as we were suddenly ambushed by a group of what seemed to be creatures similar to the Poisonous Flesh Spiders, but whose body structures resembled crickets.

[Poisonous Flesh Cricket Soldiers (D++)]

Much like crickets, these monsters had strong legs with powerful muscles, their purple flesh became hard and swelled up each time they jumped, using an immense speed that surprised us as they charged at us.

I quickly braced myself, desiring to experiment with my new Skills as I coated my Staff with Sanguine Blade, suddenly shapeshifting it into a blade of crimson-red and black energy, and then release a slash while using my own Vitality as the fuel of my power.

Alongside this, I coupled it with Exorcism's passive effect that enhanced damage dealt against monsters, and the result was rather obvious.

SLASH!

The beast was about to clash against me at high speed, but I intercepted it and slashed it right in half in an instant, even I couldn't believe my strength a bit, but with this powerful Skill as Sanguine Blade, any weapon I held, even my staff could become a blade.

"Gryyssha…!"

The moment the beast was sliced in two it released a little shriek of agony before its body fell over he ground splattered all over the place, experience points flowed into my body as I suddenly regenerated vitality, this was the powerful effect of Sanguine Blade, it drained my vitality, but it also drained that of what I slew.

A few gold coins emerged in the ground as well, alongside a small Soul Sphere, but there was no time to pick up the loot yet, the beasts came jumping one by one, using their strong legs to kick us and fight ruthlessly.

Although we came across a small group, this small group quickly turned into a big one as more continued to come.

Kireina used her powerful spear, coating it on dark chaos and unleashing a series of piercing attacks, intercepting three of these Flesh Crickets, and splattering their flesh all over the place, her piercing attacks carried such strength that each time they pierced a beast, they would explode into pieces.

Splat! Splat! Splat!

One by one they exploded into pieces, as Vudia unleashed her Thunderbolt in a direction, the beasts couldn't fight back against having their fleshy bodies burnt through the impact of the electricity, frying them alive.

Anna used her fast axe techniques to slice through the beasts, some caught her off guard as she was slower than us, but her strong steel-like skin was even able to take on their powerful kicks and then catch them with her axe.

Ervas manipulated some of the trees, forming spears made of wood and impaling some of the smaller Flesh Crickets, while the bigger ones were blasted away using his Telekinesis Bullets. However, he maintained a barrier up to protect himself while mostly healing us whenever we needed his assistance.

Flash!

"GGRRYYSSAHH…!"

BOOM!

Meanwhile, I practiced my Holy Light Beam, unleashing a powerful beam of bright yellow light over a group of three Flesh Crickets, and decimating them at once!

[You gained EXP]

[You gained Skill Points]

The grind has begun.
