Brand New Life Online: Rise Of The Goddess Of Harvest-Novel

Chapter 871 Elena's Struggle

-----

Elena wasn't one of the most feared PVP-centered Players in BNLO for nothing. Her incredible tenacity and learning speed were what brought her so far. And she applied everything she learned in the game, which was no longer a game, to her real body back on Earth. Once she learned that BNLO was actually another world, she realized all the things she learned there could be applied in the real world.

The movements, and the improvisation. She often thought she was locked by her skills, but she was wrong. After trying and fighting for so long, she was able to further transform her abilities, shaping them around and using certain abilities to take different forms and shapes. And it was the same rule in Earth with her awakened magic.

She wanted to save her Mana as much as possible. She calculated she only had roughly enough Mana for three more spells. But what if she concentrated tiny bits of Mana into her finger tips for small, yet piercing spells?

And that's what she did!

Her three fingers pierced the skull of the wolf once he was right next to her, three small explosions of darkness and phantom flames erupted inside of the wolf's skull, entering through the hole in them.

BOOOMM!!

"Gryyyaarrgghh!"

This world was not restricted by stat differences like in BNLO, this meant that even some low level person like her could heavily wound another as long as she targeted their vital points, and undead or not, the head was a vital point no matter what.

The wolf screamed in agony, stepping back and groaning in pain. Morpheus was shocked by what Elena did, quickly transforming into a large scythe and descending towards the wolf Blighter, his sharp blade slicing cleanly through his neck!

"DIE!"

SLAAASH!

A powerful slashing attack sliced through the wolf's neck, followed by an explosion of nightmarish energies engulfing the surroundings. Blood splattered everywhere, the beheaded wolf falling into the ground, motionlessly…

The moment the Blighter died, the other bear-shaped one and Aria were startled, their eyes gazing at Elena and Morpheus with utter shock. Aria was the first to speak as she fought the turtle and the owl at the same side, full of fury and not sorrow over a dead companion.

"One down already…" Aria groaned. "How useless can you be?! Do you truly call yourselves the priests of our Lady of Decay and Putrefaction?!"

Although they are not as heartless as other evil sorcerers, the Blighters are already heartless. They see one another as pawns for their own goals. Although they protect one another and help one another, when one of them die, they don't feel bad.

"That girl…" The bear roared, his bones surging into his body and forming a powerful armor. "I'll take her down myself! You dare take him down?! He was a powerful ally! What a waste!"

The bear rushed towards Elena, who was flabbergasted.

"W-We killed one…!" Elena muttered, suddenly falling to her knees. "Ugh…!"

"Amazing… Ah, Elena, are you okay?!" Anna cried, running to her side. "Dammit, I wish I could do something! If we manage to get out of here, you better teach me some healing spell or something!"

"ROOAAR!"

However, before they could even move, the bear was already looming above them, accompanied by four Giant Bone Beasts that had managed to slip past Morpheus Summons. His skeletons were already below ten, and they were all busy dealing with the smaller and faster ones.

FLASH!

But before they could reach the two, chains made of accursed darkness wrapped around them, stopping them from giving another step. It was Monica, who had barely managed to stop them. Her eyes flared with determination, as she unleashed her strongest curse, spending all her Mana again.

"[Soul Eating Curse]!"

FLUOSH!

With a mighty shout, the chains unleashed their power, burning through the souls of the ones it had captured. The Blighter bear squirmed in agony, breaking the chains and managing to escape barely, gasping for air despite being an Undead Beast in this form.

"Ugh… M-My soul! She can burn souls with her curse?!" The Blighter was left speechless. "Tch!"

He slammed the ground with utmost fury, enormous spikes of black wood surged, spreading a poisonous black smoke as they made their way towards Monica, soon to impale her to death! Monica cried, trying to run away, the one of the spears managed to catch her leg, piercing it. Blood splattered everywhere, as she gave a deafening scream.

"AAARGGH!"

"Monica!"

Elena panicked, seeing Monica about to die, the bear was now charging directly towards Anna. She had to choose to either save Anna or Monica, and she didn't have enough Mana for both! Morpheus was overwhelmed, only three summons left and his Mana was already reaching zero. Elisa was out of magic bullets and running with Steiner from a group of Bone Beasts, throwing things at them to slow them down.

"What do I do, what do I do?!"

As Elena was tormented in that split of a second, she quickly grabbed Anna with all her strength and ran towards Monica. The claw of the bear reached the ground right below Anna, ripples surging in the ceramic floor that spread large cracks.

"YOU!"

The bear furiously opened his jaws, harnessing Mana and then firing bullets of poisonous stomach acid from his undead rotten stomach. Whenever the acid hit a solid surface, it instantly melted it! Elena panicked as she saw Anna about to be hit by several of them.

"No!"

She put herself behind her, the bullets were barely taken away by small dream portals, but one managed to get her. Morpheus tried his best to protect her, but this was his limit. The bullet hit one of Elena's arms, a gaping hole emerged there, burning and making her bleed. Cursed rot spreading!

"Aarrggh!"

"Elena!"

Anna started crying as she saw Elena in agony and Monica about to be impaled. Despair surged in their hearts even as they managed to kill one of the Blighters. They were way too strong! What could they even do against him?

"We barely made it!"

However, a giant bird arrived on the scene, accompanied by a squirrel on top of his head. It was a mighty brown eagle, crying fearlessly and attacking the bear with powerful talon attacks.

"Just how many of you damn Druids are there?!"
