Chapter 142: The Battle Between the Sea of Flowers and the Insect Tide

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Under the approaching early morning’s sky, the chill of the late autumn crept up and constantly produced water vapor in the air, forming vague, cold fog.

When everyone looked at this sea of flowers colliding with the endless insect tide and killing them to its heart’s content, they felt a tightness in their throats.

However, the Millstone Town people suddenly felt ease in their tense feelings.

At the very least, the sea of flowers was now in a stalemate with the insect tide, giving all of them the chance to breathe at last.

When the Extreme Guild Club’s quartet looked at Red Thorn’s ortet beside Lin Yuan and then at him, they could not help but feel that he was simply a person full of surprises.

At every critical moment—be it the previous scouting, his fey having the ability to restore spiritual power, or the fact that he could keep up healing the front line—Lin Yuan could always come forward.

And now, when everyone was nearly unable to hold on anymore, he summoned a strange plant lifeform and controlled the insect tide’s pace.

Xin Ying detected Red Thorn’s ortet beside Lin Yuan’s hand. She could sense that this two-meter-tall, strange plant that she had never heard of was not very powerful. Its battle prowess was merely at Bronze.

However, this plant lifeform’s ability was simply too powerful. It seemed as if it was born to suppress this insect tide.

Xin Ying had taken part in the S Tournament before, so she had more thoughts on this. When she looked at the Normal child ramets in the sea of flowers and the Elite ramets beside the ortet, she deeply felt that Lin Yuan’s plant lifeform was terrifying.

If its grade reached Diamond, then what kind of killing power would the Platinum ramets and countless Gold child ramets possess?

Some of the earliest child ramets had grown close to one meter tall. Despite almost reaching a ramet’s degree, the child ramets’ combat power was close to an Elite.

Such child ramets did not even need to use the vines to attack the Normal insects. Instead, they could just spiral open the flower on the corrosive cavity and reveal the sharp teeth inside before easily devouring them.

A large amount of acid in the corrosive cavity could also quickly digest the devoured insects, turning them into energy. Part of the energy would be given to Red Thorn’s ortet. The child ramets would absorb the remaining energy themselves, which would then turn them even stronger.

At the same time, Red Thorn’s ortet still constantly released spores that continued to spread the sea of flowers’ dominance. These spores would also rapidly replenish the sea of flowers’ damaged parts.

Because the child ramets’ rhizomes were all interconnected, even if the sea of flowers killed lesser alien insects, the nutrition would be shared based on these rhizomes.

If they encountered some insects that wreaked havoc in the sea of flowers, Red Thorn would quickly mobilize energy. It would channel energy to numerous child ramets near that rampaging alien insect. These child ramets would rapidly absorb the ortet’s energy and grow into Elite ramets.

Red Thorn had reached Bronze, so its ramets were Elite.

Numerous ramets would besiege the Class 1 alien insects and devour them to offset the consumed energy.

The stalemate between the sea of flowers and the insect tide was because the former had the upper hand. The sea of flowers’ nutrients came from the insect tide, but the latter could not replenish any nutrients from the former.

Nonetheless, there were too many insects. Even if the sea of flowers devoured all the present insects, many more were approaching like an endless stream.

The sea of flowers’ vines danced, and the alien insects hissed. The stalemate had lasted for nearly an hour, and in the crowd’s eyes, it was the most beautiful outcome.

This was because such a stalemate could allow the injured ones and their feys to recuperate. The injured combat-class spirit qi professionals and feys were still waiting for the healing-type spirit qi professionals to heal them.

Lin Yuan’s Spirit-Gather Goldfish no longer used Spirit Injection on Lu Pinru. Instead, it replenished the healing-type spirit qi professionals’ exhausted spiritual power.

As a result, the healing-type spirit qi professionals had enough spirit qi to unleash their abilities and heal the combatants who were alternating between old and new injuries.
