Chapter 1756 Shattering The Barrier!

.

CRAAAASH!

The attacks I unleashed reached the Fortress Warrior Ant, its HP quickly went down to zero the moment an enormous ice crystal pierced and froze its head, a nice and quick death.

Ding!

[Your Party has defeated [Giant Fiery Red Ant Fortress Warrior (Rank A++)] x1!]

[You earned 300000 EXP!]

Oh, these big guys give some nice EXP, I guess they're indeed mid bosses.

I looked into the distance as I stored the corpse inside my Item Box, the moment the monster died, the cosmic barrier made up of flames quickly began to weaken.

So it works, these guys are really the pillars of that damn barrier! They're also immensely big, I'll make sure to use their materials to upgrade my weapons later, heh. Especially Shadrach.

There were nine more of these guys left, but as I finished killing one. Frank and Luminous took down another two with their strength and the support of the rest of the party.

BOOOM! BOOOM!

Their gigantic bodies made the ground tremble when they fell after death. The barrier once more weakened. There were now seven left!

Ding!

[Your Party has defeated [Giant Fiery Red Ant Fortress Warrior (Rank A++)] x2!]

[You earned 600000 EXP!]

As three Warriors died, the Queen grew desperate. She quickly roared once more, giving orders to the ants. The entire ant army inside the nest decided to show up right after that, over a hundred of them. The moment they stepped out, her purple flames mutated them into twice their size just as before.

Their stats skyrocketed and they became stronger in an instant. And they decided to abuse we were separated across the battlefield to take us down one by one…

Sadly for them, they're just walking bags of EXP, no matter how hard they try. They're just a bunch of bugs… bugs inferior to caterpillars, of course! Caterpillars and fairies are the most superior of bugs out there! In all of realities!

"Heh, you think this is a challenge, ant?" Sighed Frank, his Draconification Form seemed ready to slay more monsters, as he loaded his draconic power into his Demon Sword Gram. "[Dragon Blade]!!!"

SLAAAASH!

He swung the sword horizontally and vertically, both attacks together shaping into an X as they clashed against the Ants rushing towards him, all while his free hand gathered Cosmic Power and Shadows…

"[Void Star]!"

FLUOOOOSH!

BOOOOOOOMMMM!!!

The enormous blow hit the Fortress Warrior Ant directly, blowing off its head and making it fall into the floor!

BAAAM!

Damn, he got pissed, didn't he?

"[Holy Brilliance]!"

FLAAAAASHH!!!

BOOOOOMM!!!

Luminous as well greeted the ants with his draconic and newly awakened primordial light powers. He gathered his light within his claws and then fired it like beams against the ants, mercilessly destroying them as they rushed here. Being imbued with miasma actually made them weaker to the light than before.

"And as of you…"

Luminous confronted the giant Fortress Ant with his very body, fireballs were blocked by his big and thick scales, as he quickly began slashing the ant's exoskeleton, using a blade made of light to slice through its flesh and then…

CRAAACK!

He mercilessly tore the ant apart!

Ding!

[Your Party has defeated [Giant Fiery Red Ant Soldier (A+ Rank)] x34!]

Ding!

[Your Party has defeated [Giant Fiery Red Ant Fortress Warrior (Rank A++)] x2!]

[You earned 600000 EXP!]

BBBZZZZZT!

The Barrier made a weird sound, it was getting screwed over very quickly, I can tell!

And as that happened, I decided to merge Aquamarine's power with Yggdra in here, who had been healing our allies with her Aura and also trapping foes using her roots. She had been a good girl and stuck behind her mama to be well protected.

"Now… Yggdra, Aquamarine!"

"Got it mama!"

"Alright!"

FLASH!

The two converged their power into the palm of my hands, as I wore my beautiful ice armor, I pointed my hand at the middle of the battlefield.

"[Divine Frozen Tree of Niflheim]!"

FLAAAASH!

An enormous mass of ice began growing in the ground itself. It was first a small sapling, but then it grew all the way into a grown adult tree in a matter of seconds. Of course, it was a special magical tree completely made out of ice.

TRUUUUUUMMMM…!

The Ice Treen's roots spread further into the underground, reaching all the way around us and then piercing through the ants from afar! The tree's very presence also unleashed a freezing aura, which froze them on the spot. And as if things couldn't get any worse for them, the tree gave out fruits which once they fell into the ground, exploded, into more ice, of course.

The best part was that the principles of Aquamarine's Ice Beast Summon Skill was added into this spell's creation, turning the trees into a living being that began to walk on its own roots, quickly impacting the Fortress Ant and piercing it with countless branches and roots.

The ant fought with flames and by trying to crush the tree with its weight, but it had its legs frozen before it could do anything funny, and while it was firing flames, the rest of its body was frozen on the spot, shattering into fragments of frozen ant, and falling into the ground.

At the same time, two more of these giant Trees were summoned as well, as I directed them towards the other two nearby Fortress Ants in the vicinity. And well, guess what happened, they all died. Now that the Terrain was freezing rapidly and Leviathan was splashing water everywhere (and currently attacking the barrier with Bubu, Colora, and Shadrach), the trees of Niflheim were especially strong!

BAAAM!

BAAAM!

BAAAM!

Three more Ants fell from the ground, and then, the last two were eliminated by the twins and Brunhild cooperating with Sol and Fiere, the whole team took them down in less than six minutes since they showed up…

BBBBZZZZZ!

CRAAASH!

And the barrier, giving a last sound of interference, was shattered!
