Chapter 240: Burning Down Chaos
Chapter 240: Burning Down Chaos
"Conjure."
Zeke didn't waste any time and began by dispersing all of his [Summons] throughout the continent. He set his eyes on the enemy which was easy to make out as he floated 50 feet into the air. Looking down on everything like an omnipotent being.
"Those are probably the enemies. Take them down immediately." Zeke's summons made their war cry. Advancing rapidly and increasing in strength as their health fell below the needed threshold.
Zeke could clearly make out what his enemy was. The [Chaos Plants] stood at a solid 15 feet in height after all. And, aside from this, the middle of each plant was glowing with a bright violet color. While also dispersing particles which Zeke knew to be [Chaos Energy].
"Damn that's one nasty looking creature." Zeke said, observing that every area within Helios was going back square one. With the [Chaos Energy] being returned by the plants.
"Zeke. Why are you here?" Allesiah asked, knowing that tehri was no other explanation for the massive amount of [Conjures] being summoned than the fact that Zeke has entered the [Continent].
"Come on now, is that any way to treat your savior?" Zeke began, taking a quick glance at the [Status Bars] of the elites and noticing that there were negative effects included.
"I need you to focus on something else for now so you better go back to the base right away."
"What is it?" Allesiah immediately responded. Creating some distance between her and the enemies; ensuring that she would not take damage while she listened to the gamer.
"Those kids probably need some healing and treatment right now. Based on their [Status Bars] I'm guessing that getting hit has more negative effects than what lies on the surface. So I want you to use your [Chaos Sight] while Julia and Red heals their fellow elites."
"But what about the fight?"
"Come on Allesiah, you know better than to ask that." Zeke continued, with his [Conjures] delivering on the order and damaging the [Chaos Plants]. Something which Allesiah saw even on the area she was on.
"Understood. Just tell us what to do after that."
"Don't worry. I will." Zeke said, finally closing the [Voice Chat] as the said elf teleported back to the base.
"Now how do I deal with this exactly?"
The puzzle was already being solved in the head of the gamer because, aside from the fact that there was an enemy right in front of him, there was an even larger matter that needed to be solved. One which was brought by the same enemy. That is, the immense amount of [Chaos Energy] it was supplying.
Zeke didn't have an infinite supply of the [Empty Chaos Crystals]. This was just enough to last halfway through the missions. Specifically, clearing two continents and possibly forcing their enemy to face them at this point. It was, after all, impossible for no move to be made by Pier if half of his forces was already depleted.
However things came sooner than he thought and, not in the way that he expected it to be. For all he knew, there was only a limited supply of [Chaos Energy] which Pier could create. Yet, the same [Chaos Energy] not only returned but also multiplied exponentially.
"Man he really knows how to deal some damage huh." The gamer told himself. Thinking of his enemy who was still in hiding. Refusing to face him head on.
"Well it's not like I can blame him. Even hiding is a useful tactic on its own merit." Zeke continued as he summoned Horizon in the air.
With the [Conjures] that were already deployed, Zeke was able to test out a number of skills. The problem was only that, they were not successful in casting anything that used up mana. Limiting them to [Chaos Energy] which was, did little to no effect on the said enemies.
"That's major problem number two already." Zeke thought to himself as his [Conjures] only relied on their physical strength in order to kill their enemies.
This was not as big of a problem as the lack of the [Empty Chaos Crystals] because, with the [Infernal] form being activated together with [Undying Loyalty] an [Undying Fury], his [Conjures] were basically unstoppable.
"That still doesn't erase the fact that those plants are still standing." Zeke thought as he noticed something peculiar with the said enemy. That is, it was trying even harder to push away the [Conjures] that have entered their [Infernal] form.
Zeke then fired a bullet towards the [Chaos Plant]. One which was infused with the flames of the fire god. Surprisingly, the said creature was not able to defend against it and, soon enough, its whole structure caught fire.
The [Chaos Plant] began making a strange sound. One which seemed to be a mixture of a shriek and a scream as its vines were also caught fire. Destroying the link between it and the monsters on the ground which immediately turned into corpses.
"Huh Well I guess no matter how hideous they are. Those things are still plants." Zeke furthered, watching the sight and understanding what it was that he needed to do.
Zeke brought out twenty fully charged bullets from his inventory. All were loaded with the flames of the [Fire God] and placed with a [Detonate] spell.
He then summoned [Chaos Wyverns]. Making each of them eat a single bullet as he deployed them immediately to different areas within the map. The same ones which weren't inhabited by citizens anymore.
"Okay so there are two weaknesses now. The blind spot in the air and the flame spell from the [Fire God]." Zeke furthered as a smile formed on his face.
"Let's try a little kamikaze dive on them." Zeke said as his [Chaos Wyverns] plunged headfirst towards the blind spot of the [Chaos Plants]. Exploding immediately after and, creating the desired effect of the gamer.
The pants were throwing tantrums. Hitting everything in sight while also removing the vines that were connected to the monsters. Just like Zeke's first victim, their health was rapidly dropping and, upon reaching this point, they went into a defensive form.
They turned into dormant like seeds. Zeke dind't feel any hostility from them this time around indicating that, these would not pose any threat anymore. But just for good measure, Zeke decided to try the same move again in order to eradicate the plant entirely.
"I'd probably gain more rewards if I take you down right?" Zeke furthered as he tried burning them in this state yet, only dealing half of the damage that he was able to generate when they were fully bloomed.
"Huh. And that gives me problem number three."
There was also a limit to the number of bullets charged with the [Fire God's Flames]. Zeke didn't want to waste another round of bullets just for this. That's why he simply went down on one of the areas performing a move which he knew would work as, the dormant state of the [Chaos Plant] had the same header as item components on his inventory.
The monsters on the area were also dead. Basically because of the same plant that buffed them a while ago. Making their state kind of ironic because it also killed them. There was no hassle as Zeke walked towards the seed and proceeded to itemizing it.
"Collect."
Just as he expected, the seed immediately went to his inventory. This meant that, its defensive state was nothing to worry about. It was basically an item at this point. Something which Zeke intended to forge into a useful item.
"Okay. I think that's all there is to it." The gamer furthered. Making his [Conjures] collect the other dormant seeds that have been affected by the fire.
Although a useful pattern of attack. There was a small problem to this. The plant also grew on the areas where the demons are inhabiting. Making it dangerous for the gamer to perform the same stunt. Yet he was not worried with this as a new factor added up. One which made him open the [Voice Chat] once again.
"Sylph."
"Yeah what is it?" Sylph said. Not satisfied with the fact that Zeke needed to take over just for the mission to be successful.
"Someone's a bit grumpy." Zeke commented.
"Stop teasing me and just say what you need."
"Sheesh. We need to fix that temper of yours. Anyway, is everyone already finished healing?"
"Okay, first of all, there is no need to fix my temper. I like it just the way it is. And secondly, everyone has been healed. Unfortunately however, most of them aren't in fighting shape just yet. They'd need at least another hour or so if you'll send them to the battlefield."
"Yeah I know that. Don't worry I have something else in mind."
"Oh?"
Zeke proceeded to telling Sylph the details of the plan. As mentioned, Zeke's [Conjures] were not capable of using the [Empty Chaos Crystals] and so he needed the help of the elites in order to do this.
"Wait. What about those strange plants?"
"Oh I took care of them already."
"You did what?!?"
"Seriously. You guys need to calm down about these things. I mean at this point you should realize what I'm capable of."
"Anyway, I'll be giving you the coordinates on the areas where they need to be deployed. Just collect the [Chaos Energy] and retreat. You don't need to do anything aside from those commands." It was the perfect mission for the elites. There was no risk involved in this as well. Meaning, Zeke could completely focus on the other things he needed to do.
"What about you?" Sylph asked.
"I'll just show our dear enemy what I'm capable of." The gamer stated. Marking the location where he was to teleport as he said.
"I'm going to wipe out all [Chaos] from this continent."
