2074 2074. Beach Clearing


    "Sister, behind you!" Onyx sent a warning to Midnight who had just leaped over to sh apart a corrupted undead bear. Her ws had been wreathed in purifying light mes for the majority of her battle after suppressing many of the first wave of these corrupted monsters with a roar of wind. Her ws left the target she had just shed behind with white mes before she leaped to dodge the iing attack of a corrupted undead angel that was wielding a rusted and broken sword. Her counter was the whip of her tail also covered in the very same mes, however, she had condensed some earth on the end of her tail too. This little tack hade from Terron. She had watched him condense some earth as additional armor, but when she saw that she could use it as an attack instead, she was interested. Especially since she could add the earth, then set it aze to cause even more damage. The result was a shattering and ming amount of earth sent all around her to defend her from various attacks. It was also nice to know that she could cause a major knock back with this attack. Giving her time to take in the battles around her for where she should move next. Between her and Onyx, the pair had been moving through the battle field all over the beach. Their goals were more or less the same. Help those that were struggling, and allow for everyone to have more space while the elves guide Alma to the forested edge of the beach. It wasn''t that they were afraid that there would be some worse monster created by the demon lording from the frosted area of the ind. Nor was it that they were afraid of the unknown area. It was because the song that the musicians and Alcie had begun to buff everyone could notst forever. While these buffs were allowing small injuries to heal faster, they were also causing agility, magical, physical, and even health to improve. The rate at which everyone was regaining their mana was also very high. When Alice had written this song, she had channeled the emotions that anyone would have in battle. The steel will to make sure that the goal was met. The solitary struggle for strength that everyone had when they faced a possible death. Even more, the unbroken bond with those that stood beside them. This was why many of the musicians that had joined were finding that their resonance was growing. Every single tune that matched had increased their abilities along with the entire battling forces'' strengths. Surprisingly, this also calmed the manas that these buffs encountered. Therefore, it was countering the corrupted manas that were within the corrupted undead. All that chaotic mana which was slowly being countered with the natural mana from those that could use it, was also being calmed by the music made right now. Whether that was another sign that Alice and these musicians that worked with the healers had seen beyond the world a little or not, wasn''t the focus. Instead, the focus was on creating a path for Alma to get to the treeline. Onyx slithered out at his full size creating a massive sweep with his tail across arge span of the sand. The light mana gathered on his body acting as a second set of scales ensured that he did severe damage to all the corrupted undead that came in to contact with him. It was a massive move that left any standing opponents a perfect target for Gil. Gil had been firing arrows and using his daggers interchangeably. He was the main force followed by five elite battle archers from the elven forces. Normally, these elite battle archers would be acting on the forest elf queen''s direct orders. Her strongest leaders within the forest elf forests. They had been sent specifically to defend Alma in this battle since the forest elf queen herself could not leave the forest that far. She was bound to it and was barely able to leave to go to genesis. Let alone across an ocean or to the Sigil continent. When he saw that Onyx and Midnight had made ane of free space across the sand, he began preparing a major skill he and the elite battle archers had prepared with light arrows in hand. Each of them could fire multiple arrows in very quick session. The gathered targets that had been pushed together by Midnight and Onyx on opposite sides was a perfect time to use such a skill. In tandem with the elite battle archers, they began rapidly during arrows. These light affinity arrows directly pierced and purified the bodies of the corrupted undead. Their ability to regenerate their bodies was massively weakened with everything happening around them. Gil could also feel that the elite battle archers had trained themselves to be much more powerful in their skills than any archer he had ever met. Their actions were beyond what anyone would call trained. They were the perfect example of mastery. Each clearly having a mastery of their skills both physically and mentally. The peak of what anyone would call their field of study. But this was still just that, the basics of their systems. They still had mastery skills for what an elite battle archer would be. The very skills that they were holding to themselves to use for defending Alma when need be. That aside though, Gil watched as the arrows rained down on to the corrupted undead,pletely stopping them from further attacks. Meanwhile, Alma had rushed out behind the elite battle archer and Gil. She was dropping seeds here and there to prepare the camp that they were making. She would have preferred to be part of the battle, but she had been given a much stricter role in everything. The trees and vines she could grow very quickly with her skill would not normally live that long without her adjustment. That was, if she hadn''t been followed by most of the farmers that had been around when the battle with the vampiric monsters. They had followed her wanting to help. Wanting to be part of the reason why the world would beplete. This wasn''t an avoidable urrence, they had seen the majesty of what tier skills could do. They were part of growing an entire forest in an instant. They had their minds opened up to sights and potentials that weren''t even contained within the world. How could anyone say they would not charge head on in to that wonder even with the risk of dying?


    These would be the people maintaining the safety of the base after Alma activated all the seeds she was throwing. With her seeds and the naturally urring trees, she could connect everything in to a wall of wood and vines. This would be the towers for archers to defend while the others rested and prepared for the next journey. The ruins needed to be explored. It was a surety that the demon lord would be searching for what he needed. a grinding sound suddenly came as the beach sands shifted. Before Alma could take another step, Su had mmed down the twin shields right in front of her. She hadn''t even realized that Su had been right there to defend her. Arge snake like worm shot out of the sand, its body covered in decaying wounds. The sand shifted again as five more shot out trying to attack them. All around the sands this happened causing shouts for reinforcements to bemonce. This monster was not just a single one, but a group that had been found and used by the demon lord. "Attention! These are demonic worms from the desertnds near the demon city! They are weak at their jointed armor! Avoid their heads!" The shout was passed around more and more. The demons that hade in the Genesis forces knew these monsters the best. Their guidance and exnations began to flip the suddenly terrible situation back to the Genesis force''s sess. This sudden change and not shaken any of the Genesis forces determination. Instead, they had spurred their fires to attack with even more vigor. They felt that this underground threat had only appeared because the demon lord was beginning to realize that he could not have his pawns resist them forever. They were increasing their momentum, not slowing down. Seeing the massive improvements in the forces, Scy stepped center stage in to the air. She had been sending the squads here and there throughmunication while waiting for the foundations to be built. She saw that Alma was about to prepare their base, so, someone should try to clear the enemies before the walls went up.
