Chapter 440: Butterflies and Moths

"Any of these monsters come near us we go all out. We are not fooling around." Walker put on his best confident face and used his strongest voice. He was no longer trying to relax but had instead, been thrown in to adrenaline.

"Not a single thing will pass me." Su was determined to protect Midnight and Remey from any possible damage. She would not allow them to even feel the wind of an enemy pass by. 

I will back you up. Gil can take the opposite end." Wade had an arrow notched and was tracking a fluttering shadow that glowed slightly blue in the distance. 

"I will remain near the guardian. Master alchemist please come and wait as well." The lunar priestess knew she was no use in battle. She could only purify and heal besides the ceremonies she could perform. Even if she had her mana she was basically useless. 

"No, this was a problem I caused by my lack of follow through. I will be using some battle potions." Trish said this as Walker used his multi buff skill. She felt the power increase and pulled out many small vials of potions from her robes. She soon had eight between her fingers. 

"Whatever you do just remain in our guard range. I don't want to see one of the heads of the alchemist guild hurt before she takes the position. We plan to work you to death." Walker said this not to deter Trish but as encouragement. 

His encouragement hit her hard. She had put the very person at risk that had opened a new path for her. "I am stronger than I look. Just because an alchemist brews healing potions doesn't mean we don't brew poisons and explosions as well." 

Trish threw a potion in to the air toward a blue pair of flapping wings. The vial broke open and a gust of wind was sucked away from the platform. "That's called a sun flare potion. The dried pine sap is the perfect fuel for the fire tongue toad bones." 

Trish spoke but none could hear her over the flash and bang of fire. The potion completely destroyed the azure butterfly it had landed on. The group was shocked. They had a ringing in their ears and were slightly blinded from the contrast of light and night from the explosion. Trish however, was already holding another potion bringing her total back to either in her hands. 

"You can take care of yourself then. I will take long range with Wade, you get mid range and Walker will work his magic." Gil was the closest to Trish and filled her in on the best strategy. 

"No one will harm my family," Onyx said this to all minds he could reach around them and started to let his shadows meld back in to him. He regained his true size and coiled in to a striking position. He was going to squeeze the life from the moths and butterflies or he would at least bite them to use his venom. He would not allow anything to harm them.

Walker had a variety of weapons to chose from but went with the staff he was comfortable with. He needed to release long range magic and that was what he would do. He used the staff to channel the water elemental mana that had gathered in the area which made it the handle for a large frost whip. 

This frost whip was fat with water elemental mana making it perfect for longer ranged attacks. However, he was planning to use it as a constant source of ice needles. This would travel and land in targets to slow them for the enforcers to defeat.

The crack of his large frost whip made the nearer azure butterflies move towards them. They wanted to ensure that they could feast on the nectar of the flowers blooming in the garden without predators attacking. They were also able to sense the water elemental mana in Walkers' skill making them agitated. They were the controllers of the water element where they flew in the forest. 

Leader, step aside." Su raised one of her shields and the sound of pressurized water hitting metal overcame his ears. "Those azure butterflies can shoot water bolts from a distance. They are like your fire bolt spell." Su moved to block another aimed at Midnight. 

Walker was not happy to see this. He tried to attack with the frost whip and found that he was only doing minimal damage. The azure butterflies were resistant to his spell because of the shared element. He had hoped that the solid ice would be stronger, however, it was melting too fast in the warmer forest. 

Walker saw one of Gil's fire elemental arrows hit an azure butterfly and start to burst in to fire. Yet in just moments, the fire was extinguished and the arrow fell from the butterfly landing far on the ground. "It resists fire too. No burning them away."

Gil was not happy to see this. He pulled back a wind elemental arrow and fired it next. The problem that arose from this was that the wind elemental mana kicked up a large amount of wind. The azure butterflies were very light and were dawn toward the one Gil struck. 

This would have been good since the one he directly struck as being shredded by the sharp blades of wind being created from the arrow. But it was not good at all, the azure butterflies pulled near it were not alone. There was a twin tail moth and it was stronger than the weaker azure butterflies. 

"One tail has some green so wind element and the other has a completely black end so darkness element." Walker could sense the elements too but was thankful she could easily see them, He knew that this was the tougher opponent coming toward them and it would need to be dealt with.
