?658 An Unsettling Discovery In The Vylkr vines (2)
Fortunately, the health care also had several healers on night shifts, which the Villagers further welcod as they could get treatnt anyti.
"Thank you," Grim said gratefully as they walked toward the nearest healthcare.
It was his luck to be born in the sa generation as Orion and to have a close companion like him.
….…..
One hour later
"Stay vigilant; keep your eyes peeled for anything out of the ordinary," Orion commanded, surveying the terrain below from one of the floating Orion's skies.
The warriors nodded solemnly, refocusing their attention on their surroundings.
After delivering Grim to healthcare, Orion swiftly assembled a team of four strong warrior groups and proceeded to the location of the Vylkr vine attack.
Two warriors scoured the ground from below while the others searched above. Orion joined them in one of the Orion's skies. Thankfully, the bright moon provided ample illumination, and their enhanced warrior sight allowed them to clearly observe the events unfolding beneath them.
After three hours of carefully observing their surroundings to see what they could find, one of the warriors caught sothing and imdiately signalled for the others' attention, including Orion.
Orion and the others shifted their gaze toward where the warrior was pointing and widened their eyes at the sight below them.
Under the moon's radiance, they observed a miniature leg-
sized Vylkr vine resembling a massive three-star Vylkr vine. It was within a sphere-like structure with an open closure on top of it, seemingly comprised of various one-star warriors.
From the one-star Vylkr vines' sphere-like structure, tendrils spread outwards into the surroundings, moving around with strange and almost unnatural coordinated movents for an entity like the Vylkr vines.
"I'm seeing this correctly," one of the warriors said, gulping down a large amount of air.
He had defeated nurous three-star Vylkr vines as a three-
star warrior but had never encountered such a strange three-
Vylkr vine.
"Is... this even possible?" another warrior asked, her voice slightly trembling as she stared at the scene below.
The other warriors shared the sa thoughts. Although they had previously doubted Orion's words when he explained what was happening, they imdiately understood that everything Orion had told them was right as they observed the sight before them.
anwhile, Orion couldn't help but watch the scene with an astounded expression.
Though Grim had explained to him what had occurred during the ambush, it was pretty obvious that Grim himself hadn't had the ti to take a good look around his surroundings, or he might have encountered such a sight and understood what had caused the Vylkr vines to attack them.
Nevertheless, with the cause of the source of their attacks, Orion didn't waste any ti.
"Signal the groups below and let them know their target is far to the left," Orion ordered.
The warriors nodded seriously in response and imdiately went into action as they now understood the severity of the situation. Suddenly, so of the warriors in the Orion's skies whistled strangely.
This was how they had co up to communicate, either screaming at each other from the Orion's skies or those on the ground when going out on missions.
Orion observed as the warriors below raised their heads upward, moving cohesively towards the side where the strangely unique Vylkr vine was located.
Within seconds, the warriors arrived before the Vylkr vines, easily breaking through the surrounding one-star Vylkr vines. As if possessing so intelligence to sense the approaching warriors, Orion and the rest of the warriors watched with amazed expressions as the Vylkr vines turned around and fled, using the abundant one-star Vylkr vines around it as cover.
Orion swiftly grabbed a bow and an arrow from the quiver, resting on the side of the basket.
He positioned the arrow on the bow, stretched the strings backwards, and imdiately activated his gift.
CRACKKLLEEE!! CRACCKLLEE!!!
Imdiately, a wave of vibrant bluish lightning erged from his hands, gathering around the bow and arrow. Over the past few months, Orion had diversified his arsenal, learning to wield various weapons such as daggers, a spear, a sword, a war hamr, a war axe, and now a bow and arrow.
The dagger and spear techniques were acquired from the Crystalforge elite warriors, while the sword, war hamr, and war axe skills were learned from so of the Village warriors and Fifi. Lastly, the bow and arrow techniques were directly taught by Aerialia, who also shared a set of techniques utilizing Celestial energy.
Aerialia initially had reservations, fearing the interaction with the violent Vylkr energy within Orion's body might threaten her own survival.
However, realizing that her concerns were unfounded and their promises in the Garden were unnecessary, she taught him everything she knew about archery and the best techniques to complent it.
Though he was surprised by Aerialia's archery knowledge and assistance in refining his fighting techniques, Orion recalled that she was also the goddess of hunt and forge, making it natural for her to possess such knowledge.
Taking a deep breath, Orion felt the sun's warmth rging with the Celestial energy in his veins. Suddenly, an external warmth enveloped his skin as he exhaled, extending to his fingertips.
"Celestial Ember Forge Technique: Stellar Ignition!"
A scorching torrent of golden flas burst forth from Orion's fingertips, engulfing the bow and arrow in his hands. The golden flas, interwoven with his bluish lightning, illuminated the surroundings with the vibrant hues of the sun. Just as Orion prepared to release the string, aiming at the peculiar Vylkr vines below—
BOOMM!
One of the three-star warriors swiftly caught up with the Vylkr vines, crushing them beneath his feet.
Another warrior erged behind, reducing the remaining Vylkr vines to bits and pieces.
Observing this scene, Orion promptly deactivated his technique and then his gift.
As the dancing golden flas and vibrant bluish lightning retracted into his body, the bow and arrow imdiately beca ashes, scattering into the wind.
Orion sighed in relief; at least this ti, he confird that the golden flas wouldn't harm him when he wrapped his lightning around his body.
