Chapter 716 - Mariposa Vs Poison Ivy I

"So, who do you think will win?" Marlon asked Adrian as he suddenly got reminded that the two summoners are now battling it out in the battlefield. He could not believe that he spaced out for a few moments there when he needed to see the skills of his opponents.

Adrian might not want to admit it, but he is very competitive and does not want to go down like a loser if he ever gets vanquished in the event later. He needed to see all the things that his opponents are capable of.

"I think the highest chance of winning goes to Mariposa but that could also be changed as it is an open battlefield. It is not easy to predict what will happen with so many external factors." Adrian stated as he watched the fight.

=====

"You are seeing it here folks! The two summoner beauties that are said to be rivals both in-game and out of the game! To think that we will see them clash this early!" The announcer stated as the fight between to summoners has already started.

Mariposa summoned her Crystal Killer Mantis and Black Steel Carapace Armored Stag Beetle to fight against her opponent. She did not want to reveal all her cards as she needed to be wary of other players interrupting their fight.

In fact, she wanted to pay Poison Ivy back for making her face defeat back at the stronghold. She might have died but she did not fail the mission as Adrian managed to survive due to her sacrifice. This is also the reason why Poison Ivy is infuriated with Mariposa as of late as she looked like a heroine that sacrificed her life for her people instead of a loser that died in battle.

"This will be payback for that time. You only managed to win because of your mentor but she is not her right now." Mariposa stated in a tone filled with slight mockery as she did not want her elegance to be tarnished.

"You think you only died because of your master? You only successfully finished your mission because of that demon player. Without him then you might have been crying in what ever nest that you insect people live." Poison Ivy fired back as she summoned two of her soulbounds used for combat.

Poison Ivy summoner her Thorny Snake Vine that looks like a cobra that is mostly made of vines with a flower as a hood. The next thing that she summoned is a Cactus Knight which is a rare type of plant monster that can survive even in the harshest of deserts. It is a humanoid monster plant that has two spiky shields as a way of defense.

"Just do not cry when you lose!" Poison Ivy stated as the clash between the two summoners have started.

The Thorny Snake Vine went against the Black Steel Carapace Armored Stag Beetle while the Crystal Killer Mantis went against the Cactus Knight. Each soulbound would usually focus on their individual fights but would sometimes interject with the fight of the other in order to get the opponents disoriented.

Mariposa and Poison Ivy did not become idle as they also fired off support, attack and defensive spells when they have the chance. Mariposa focused more on enhancement type spells while Poison Ivy is focused on more offensive oriented spells.

The two may be summoner but they have different play styles which also gives them their own individual charm. The fight of the two became the highlight of the moment when the communication flower that Poison Ivy is controlling suddenly informed her that Team Japan is already leading the event with a lead of twenty points.

"You!" Poison Ivy stated as she noticed that the Spore Wards that her soulbound created are actually getting deleted.

"Oh! It seems that you have noticed." Mariposa stated as she actually already summoned her third soulbound called the Myriad Colors Dragonfly.

The Myriad Colors Dragonfly is an insect type of soulbound that has both quick speed and the ability to camouflage itself. It is also very notorious for its appetite for other smaller insects or prey. It is considered one of the deadly hunters in the planet of Green.

"You are not the only one that has plans. I knew that you would choose the area with the most greenery as you have complete control over this area. Well…more than what a Guardian of the Forest could anyway." Mariposa stated as the trap for Poison Ivy has been laid.

One of the Team Japan Members appeared, and it seemed to be a sorcerer that handles seals like a Charm Master. Upon seeing this, Poison Ivy immediately went into survival mode as she could not handle another opponent at the moment.

She wanted to use Forest Wanderer, a skill that is an inferior version of Forest Guardian which is only available to the Dryads or Leshy, in order to escape via the tree roots on the ground. She prepared to activate the ability, but she is unable to escape.

"It seems that Player Poison Ivy is trapped by the seals that our famous Shinigami, Hime-sama has created! Is this the end for our beautiful Poison Ivy?" The announcer stated as Poison Ivy could not escape and Hime is already preparing to explode the barrier from the inside in order to knockout Poison Ivy in one shot.

The barrier that sealed Poison Ivy started to glow green when it is suddenly broken by a fast skill that sliced it into pieces.

"Shado!" Poison Ivy exclaimed as is actually relieved that she will not die this early in the game.

"The leader told you to be careful, but you did not listen. I know that you have a rivalry with this woman but winning should be out top priority." Shado stated as he suddenly made hand seals that turned both him and Poison Ivy into shadows. They disappeared from the scene which made the crowd baffled that a skill like that is actually possible.

"Tsk! We would have eliminated the best surveyor if that shadow assassin did not appear.." Mariposa state with frustration.
