BXBX NOVEL Chapter 79 Going All Out!
-----
Since I began playing this game that I discovered many interesting things that other games could never truly showcase…. Apparently, there was just an endless amount of skill and spell combinations. Skills and Spells also interacted with their environment, and if you had the abilities, you could even take the environment itself as a way to enhance your fighting capabilities. The power of Spirit Magic has taught me that very well by now. I had even seen how Spirits themselves could merge together through Spirit Enhancement.
So why not do the same thing here? But even more? I have been thinking this for a long while, but today I am going to finally try this out. I called upon several spells and skills while chugging down several Mana Potions to replenish the Mana I was losing constantly. Just like Titan had done, I merged my own body with the Wooden Shield Spell and then shaped it using Plant Manipulation. At the same time as I did that, I summoned the various Land Spirits that were around the environment, there were little Dragon Veins here and there, and thanks to the room being so big, there were dozens of them! I summoned all of them at the same time, constantly using all my Mana all the time and chugging on more Mana Potions to replenish them.
The Land Spirits quickly began to emerge one after the other, the majority were Little Rockies, but there were also the big ones, and even the biggest one of the tree, the Titans. I called them all to me and spread-out large roots out of my body and Wooden Shield, connecting to all of them at the same time. Somehow, I felt as if my very body was being melded into their spiritual bodies, a sensation of power I had never felt before began to rush across my entire body. And then, to fuse it all like I\'ve done before… Spirit Enhancement!
FLAAAAASH!
An enormous flash of bright light spread out across the entire cave, as the Mushroom Hero stopped attacking Titan and was blinded by the Spiritual Light produced by the combination of my body and the spirits! …Yes, that\'s right, I was somehow… fusing with spirits themselves!
I knew it was possible, after all, Dryads are Spirits of Nature themselves, I am a spirit myself! So why could I only fuse spirits I summoned? Why couldn\'t I be included as well? And then, this brilliantly insane idea came to my mind!
I suddenly felt as if the Land Spirits and Nature itself were embracing me in a tight hug. I had never felt this nicely before aside from when I was hugged by my daughter. Their warmth spread across my entire body, as I continued to grow and grow… when I realized it, I had grown over 20 meters, and I had become a giant myself. The ceiling of this big room was around 50 meters, so it was just fine! I checked my body, and I was made out of both stone, earth, and countless vines and plants all around my body… I was enormous! And when I saw my stats… there were numbers in brackets showing an insane increase in all stats! I had… over 300 to all stats?! But it was all temporary, I couldn\'t stand still her forever! In a few seconds this experimental fusion would disappear, I had to fight and crush the Hero before that!
Rita and Titan looked into the distance in silence, flabbergasted by the insanity I had just done. I never thought the game had such amazing mechanics that could even let you fuse with spirits, but it seems that the interactions between skills and spells is amazingly well detailed!
"I-Incredible… Is this a dream?" Asked Titan.
"T-That\'s… Her for you. She\'s always doing crazy stuff… But I think she… overexerted herself this time around." Said Rita.
"A Fitting… Challenge!" Roared the Hero, completely ignoring Titan as he suddenly flew towards my direction like a ray of shadows, clashing against me with his gigantic sword.
CLAAAAASH!
His blade was incredibly powerful, and the darkness he emanated attempted to devour my entire body right away, even if I was gigantic! The miasmic mold generated by the blade began to easily eat away the arm I used to block his attack, turning it all into ashes. I saw that my HP had yet to drop, my true body was actually all the way in the chest of this body. As long as I protected it, my HP would only decrease slowly as the parts of this body were detached from me. However, I already had to drop that arm because the miasma would spread out too much!
"Wooden Blade!"
I suddenly shapeshifted my other arm into a sharp rock and wooden blade, and mercilessly slashed my other arm without thinking it twice. It was not painful. The arm quickly fell down into the ground, as the Hero jumped high into the skies and shrouded himself into shadows, spinning down towards me at an increasing speed!
"DIE! DIE! DIE!"
I quickly concentrated all my intent and Mana, which I continued to regenerate through drinking the potions that Acorn as giving to me (he was inside the giant as well and had been screaming in surprise this entire time) and then shaped my own body differently, generating several sharp needles that quickly transformed into giant wooden and stone spears, flying towards the Hero directly! The Hero swung his blade mercilessly, slicing through all my spears easily. However, I spread out my other arm into a long tentacle-like branch, and as he was busy dealing with the spears flowing his way, I attacked his back sneakily!
CLAAAAASH!
"G-Gah…!" The Hero suddenly and disgustingly vomited a large quantity of Miasma, as one of the Phantasmal Strings controlling him was cut off!
SNAP!
His body quickly fell into the ground after my attack, and immediately stood up. Titan and Rita were there to greet him, the two had been actually preparing an ambushing barrage of attacks.
