Ascension of the Nephilim-Chapter 400 Finding The Code Of Plants
The massive battle against the hordes of Brimstone beasts ended with the defeat of the flying armies.
When the strongest of the Planesworld had died, the magic attacks of the stellar magic practically wiped out all of the front lines of Brimstone Beasts.
The powerful siege cultivators that had done terrifying damage and nearly caused a portion of the wall to collapse were killed.
Kyros and his team then spread out, and Gradius and the rest contacted the numerous fortresses scattered around the Walls that Endured.
As the Planesworld was a Ygdrassil, the Walls that Endured were crafted as a massive round walls that stopped entry from the Midlands to the Highlands.
There were four massive fortresses at the center of the four quadrants of this circle wall.
And the reports of their battles were made known.
Thankfully, only the main fortress where Gradius, Rachel, and Breverus faced the flying army recreated the true forms of the strongest warriors in the Planesworld.
Breveros was the one who suggested to have Gradius and Rachel be with him for this battle as he knew that with the three of them gathered in a single place, the one who controlled the Brimstone Beast would send its strongest forces towards the place where the three gathered as they were the leaders of the survivors.
The Highlands began to scout out and confirmed that while the massive wall spanned out for several thousands of kilometers, the defeat of Histerion's special army led to the retreat of all Brimstone beasts on all sides of the wall.
All of the Highlands cheered and rejoiced at the news of the retreat of the Brimstone beasts. It was the first time they saw the armies retreat. The Walls that Endured had faced constant battles for a long time, and it was the first time peace had formed.
But as the peace occurred, Kyros and the group were quickly moving towards the place where a garden of World Wood Trees had sprouted.
On the way, Kyros and the team continued to discuss everything they had been through to get here and how they managed to save a massive army of men.
"And so, the Brimstone Beast knew that if they would spread their forces out, we could easily kill them all and improve our weapons. Even as the region we had to protect grew wider, we could always see the Brimstone forces organize themselves together and march out as an army. With that, we managed to secure the west Midlands." Kyros concluded his report.
"Right. And when we found the warp pad, Kyros and I managed to get it to work." Listrel explained.
"And that is how we teleported directly to the main fortress. Kyros knew that you three would be gathered together. Histerion would try to wipe out all the leaders at once. You three have shown intelligence, wisdom, and strength in guiding the Highlands. So if one of you survived, it would take longer. It must have kept its eyes on you."
"It is as you said. I noticed the intent of this god Histerion and decided to have all three of us gathered. I wanted to be freed from this treacherous battle and didn't want Gradius or Rachel to suffer and live alone. I wanted us three to die together. Who would have thought that salvation was coming." Breveros laughed.
"It's not over yet. Histerion ordered a retreat because he planned to create a Brimstone force far exceeding the current ones. Not only will we see the strongest cultivators of Planesworld again, but we will also see a real Brimstone Army. One that has intellect, mind, will, Force, and Magic. It is going to be something unlike we have ever seen before. Even the smart armies we already faced would look pathetic to the coming ones. Histerion won't be relying on numbers but will create quality warriors. They will still number millions, and each average will probably be stronger than Champions."
"Sounds like we're doomed then..." Rachel was amazed.
"That's why we can't let them. We need the Code of Plants to understand and awaken the power that you, Protos Endoxus, have. And Rachel, you must also awaken the power of Water that your sister is now wielding. Against the Brimstone, we need as much water as possible."
"Plant and Water... I never knew about this. The higher echelons of the Eldrich knew... But I never thought it would be like this! So... we tried to divide the two powers that made up this Planesworld...!" Breveros was amazed.
"And now you will be fighting to keep it united! I guess that's enough for someone like you to do. I mean, you did take care of my sister. So even if we Grendelors hate your kind more than the Protos Endoxus do, I forgive you specifically, although I am curious. How did your kind defeat my father?" Lea asked curiously.
"Lea, please save your questions for later. We are pressed with time here. Gradius, Rachel, and Breveros. Our success lies in acquiring the Codes. This means that while these two meditate on that tree, we will launch an attack to reclaim what formerly was Omega Kingdom."
"What?! We are going on the offensive?!" Rachel exclaimed.
"He's right, Rachel. Offense is now our best defense. If we give Histerion time to build his army, we will surely lose. Attacking Omega Kingdom will help us see what forces they have and catch Histerion unprepared. Also, we need to create a path connecting to the western Midlands. The Omega Kingdom will be the perfect place. With Kyros's powers as a Dryad, who knows? We can even harness more power just as they did to the Vey kingdom!"
"That's not possible." Kyros shook his head.
"It's not?" Breveros was disheartened.
"Vey was born because of the elves that lived in it for thousands of years. They took care of the tree and loved it." Mechiel explained.
"It could feel the love that the people had towards the Vey. The charming and attractive love the elves made spurred the tree's will to desire to be alive."
"That World Wood Tree was not just any other World Wood Tree as well. It was the furthest edge. The furthest and most extreme twig that the Planesworld had. It isn't like the World Wood Trees you have in the growing garden. Vey was a part of the Planesworld." Kyros explained.
"Yes. In contrast, these trees here are caused by the presence of a Plant God. According to the memory of Hydron, this was one of the earlier gods who was killed and betrayed in secret even before the rebellion of the Greater Gods began." Lea answered.
"But where is the Plant God? How come we never saw it? If we saw that same power, we would have wielded it! We would have meditated under it!" Gradius answered.
"You never saw it? Actually, you probably did, little bro." Listrel chuckled. 𝙛𝑟𝑒e𝘸𝑒𝗯𝘯𝗼𝘃el.𝒄𝒐m
"What?"
"You must have worshiped it. But when this world was abandoned at the death of Kyros in Omega Kingdom, another Fallen worked its powers."
"Right. You guys forgot of its existence. And the plants must have grown and covered it. But I think the power of Oblivion which causes people to forget, only made you avoid the place." Kyros answered.
"I forgot it?!" Gradius was stunned at such an answer.
"Don't overthink it. I nearly died fighting an incarnation of that Fallen because he made me forget my ace attack! Thankfully, the dark void of Kyriachos also has the power to make us forget. It harnesses a few of Oblivion's powers. I had Lea trained there when we were at Vey, and she can resist the power of forgetting to a certain degree and always remember the location in Hydron's memory."
"And that is where we are headed! We're here!" Lea stopped as the group arrived before a small hill at the center of several World Wood Trees.
