Chapter 2026 2026. Build A What?
The growth in communication crystals being made and sent around the kingdoms was one of the best things from the new Genesis alliance. Not only because they were a shared secret production method from various races coming together, but also because they had sped many things up. Various merchants used it to be able to communicate with their merchant caravans as they traveled through the wilderness. Others used it so that they could send out guards to different positions that needed assistance with crime happening at that moment. The usefulness had outshined everything that could be said about how rare and how hard they were to use before Genesis had come together. They had been improved to be used more times in a row without breaking. Be able to communicate more clearly using them. And furthermore, just in general numbers. That was how Gil had communicated with Alma to have multiple elves, farmers, and other forces with unique plant growing related skills prepared. She herself, was also right there with the will to lead that group on the other side of the elemental space teleportation rune formation. An army of them to be specific was waiting for the party. Easily a solid seventy five to a hundred people with related skills were there waiting. Along with them, a multitude of tools, and materials had been gathered. They waited in perfect rows just for their skills to be used. many farms had been put on hold with the less experienced watching them. This wasn't because these people had abandoned their duties, but had stood up to keep their duties. To keep the people of their alliance fed and safe. To be able to pull their weight and regale the world of their tales where farmers stood as the front line reason for victory against an evil. "Alma! You worked much faster than it even took us to get here from the undead ruins." Gil's surprise was great since he was unsure if they would be able to gather so many people so fast. "If you were paying attention, you would know that the elves and the demi-humans have both finished their elemental space teleportation rune formation today. Genesi already built the matching spots for them as well." Alma sounded like she was teasing, but the hint of pride in her voice really said it all. The people of Genesis were working incredibly hard. "I have every single farmer, plant manipulator, harvester, and so many more here to help. What can we do?" Alma brought the topic right to the front. She was sure that there was something related to plants, but Gil had only instructed her of that much. Mainly because all the details would have burned out the mana within the communication crystal that he had. It was better to be quick anyways. "I need you to grow a new forest with a tree that has been nearly extinct for a long time. It's called the light ash wood or tree, or a whole bunch of other random names throughout history. Basically, that doesn't matter. What does matter, is that weapons made of this wood can kill the vampires because of the naturally purifying light elemental mana that it gathers." Those that heard this were stuck on the spot. They had just heard that they would be growing an entire forest? How could that happen. But on top of that, they were growing it to be cut down and used as weapons? How did any of this make sense? "That would destroy the land. If we grew that so quickly, all the nutrients would be pulled out and nothing would grow or live here." it was completely right. Alma's reluctance was for the best of nature as a whole. She did not wish to pursue something that would destroy nature. It was against ehr methods as an elf and as a person. "It won't destroy it. Walker will use the nature dragon domain to help bring in natural mana to allow the land to remain fertile. It is perfect. He can counter the cost by channeling larger amounts of natural mana. With mages helping him, it will be perfect. It will just exhaust a lot of people." Gil knew that the mana potions would be spent. Almost every bit that was here and prepared for this battle and more might be used to do this. But the vampiric threat was too great right now. They were something older and more dangerous than what the party or Genesis really had ever faced. "What about that?" Alma could understand when Walker was involved. She knew that he had skills to counter the threats of destroying the lands where plants and animals would be unable to live. Yet, she was worried about the sky. "It will be light out later. It's just the night?" Gil responded with a questioning look. His eyes glanced around and soon realized that no soldier or force from angels or Genesis were asleep. He looked further off in the distance and understood where he and the party was wrong. Yes, they ahd taken a lot of time leaving and heading to the ruins. Yes, the day time and night time were different on the continents. But, here on the Sigil continent, it should be brighter. It should have been the middle of the day. Yet, there were dense black clouds covering the sky for a great distance. It was creating a place ideal for the light hating vampires to live. They ahd yet to break free of whatever seals remained, but they were able to manipulate even the weather now. It was showing that they ahd managed to wake up more. Call more power to themselves. "Brother, Alma, everyone. I will handle this with my fellow abyssal and heavenly serpents. We will handle the threats that walk in the night. Just be prepared to watch over us as we do so. Many of them are too young." Brutally serious and somber tone came through from Onyx's words. He knew well that the growth of his little serpents had been because they had been given the perfect environment to do so. Just as he had grown much faster due to his bonds with walker and Midnight. However, they were young. This would take a toll on them. Using their manas to counter a powerful skill that was literally blocking out the sun would consume all of their mana. And all mana that Onyx had to use. Because of this, they would be incredibly vulnerable during and after using their combined efforts to open the sky so that the sun could help create the forest used as materials for this battle. "Ae you sure? You won't be able to fight after that. I doubt you can even hide yourself after that." There was worry intertwined in Walker's voice. The entire party felt the same. "Do not worry, we are the abyssal and heavenly serpents. We are going to be recognized as our own race so much so that even the universe, let alone the world, will recognize us." Onyx's boasting pride was on full display here. He planned to show everyone just the pure strength of his species. To show how much he and all of them had grown. "Then we should get working. I dragged myself all the way here from my garden just to help out my daughter in law build a forest. So get a move on!" "Mom?!" Gil had no idea that his mother had come to answer the call here as well. "What? Is your mother too weak and useless to do anything? Oh no, I think not. You might have the hero title, but you are my son and I will be the one that makes sure the world turns for you. Especially since you keep making my little daughter in law work so hard. You're supposed to make things easier for her." Gil's mother gave Gil an earful. "You should listen to your mother. I had to come to make sure she kept herself standing after giving it her all. I expect you to do your best too son." Gil's father was acting as a body guard. The hunter ready for a fight in a forest made by his wife and daughter in law. An interesting event to witness. "All farming forces, prepare to create a forest!" Alma shouted out and caused many people to begin moving. Multiple moved to purify and strengthen the waters they would pour on to the saplings. Others began preparing the soil and removing damaged sections due to the saltwater and other attacks from slimes. Walker's nature dragon domain would repair other things they could not do in such a short time. The flurry of movement was only brought together through years of experience and reliance on the best of the best. Not a single person moving was divided or alone right now. An untrained force working perfectly together with a goal to protect their futures. An astounding feat.
