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

-----

Elayne and Mark had arrived barely in time to save Rita's life. The two of them easily figured out Phantasmos intentions of taking them down one by one separately, so they would leave only Elayne by herself. It was also quite obvious they were not exactly coming for the town… but for her life.

"So you guys are admitting you want to kill my friends." Rita said angrily. "And buy time? For what exactly?!" Rita furiously pointed her handgun at the Giant Phantoms as Whitey unleashed his bright light.

FLAAAASH!

A shockwave of bright light suddenly blinded the Giant Phantoms and made the surrounding Undead and Hollows step back due to the pain they felt by being touched by the tiny rat's light powers.

"Hehehe… HAHAHAH! As if that were to matter!" Laughed the Giant Phantom that had been hurt by Rita the most by her spells, his entire body was trying to regenerate back by devouring surrounding Undead and Hollows. "As long as we can buy enough time, our lord shall eliminate all of you!"

"Is he readying some sort of Nuke Spell?!" Mark wondered. "We have to quickly kill him if that's the case!" Mark said furiously, as branches and roots began growing over his body, reinforcing his muscles, and making his body grow larger and taller, slightly similar to his Game Avatar, several Totems of Beast Spirits appeared around him as he summoned them.

"Hahaha, it is something even worse! But we won't let you stop him!" Laughed one of the Giant Phantoms, suddenly taking the shape of a monstrous chimera with many animal body parts and filled with bones and Hollows mixed into his body. It was the Giant Phantom Rita failed to kill. "YOU'LL DIE BEFORE THAT HAPPENS, THOUGH!"

CLAAAAASHHHH!!!

A gigantic bony claw covered on Hollow Mud and Phantasmal essence of over ten-meters-big impacted the ground where Mark was, completely crushing him down into the ground!

"MARK!" Elayne panicked, calling Blackie as the cat suddenly emerged, unleashing his Tentacle attacks against the Phantom.

"MEEREOOOWWW!"

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

However, the claw barely took damage, as it easily threw Blackie away with a slash.

BAAAM!

"Meoow…!"

"Blackie!"

Elayne ran towards Blackie and covered him on an armor made of branches and roots, healing the little and brave cat.

"HAHAHA, YOUR FRIEND IS NOW GONE!" Laughed the Giant Phantom.

FLUOOSH!

However, out of the blue, his giant claw started burning with an infernal fire imbued with enormous quantities of Life and Fire Spiritual Essence.

"W-What?!"

"Gone? I am far from gone."

BOOOOOOOOMMMM…!

A gigantic fist made of wood and covered in flames crushed the Giant Phantom's claws and then directed itself towards its pain body, completely blasting it into pieces!

BAAAAAMMM…!

"T-This is… impossible…!" The Giant Phantom muttered, still trying to regenerate only for Mark's knife to launch itself into his body, piercing his crystal-like core and shattering!

"Die."

CRAAASH!

"GRYYYAAAAAAHHHHH…!"

Once the Giant Phantom's Magic Crystal was shattered, his entire body began to distort until it dissipated into nothingness.

"Mark, you're alright?!" Elayne was surprised.

"I am! But this is not the time to talk. They're not invincible. Use your Spiritual Gaze spell to detect their Magic Crystals and shatter them!" Mark said.

"Right!" Elayne said. "I always forget that…" She sighed.

FLAAASH!

Elayne and Rita's eyes began shining brightly with spiritual and magical lights, as the Giant phantoms panicked once they figured out their weakness. Most monsters would die once their Magic Crystals were to be shattered, it was like their hearts.

This, of course, also included phantasmal-type monsters such as ghosts, phantoms, and more. These Giant Phantoms were invincible with their amazing Assimilation and Regeneration, once their magic crystal was shattered, it was the end of them!

"I can see it now!" Rita smiled evilly, covering herself on her Veil of Night and suddenly disappearing into the shadows. Her gun suddenly appeared behind one of the Giant Phantoms she hit with her Holy Light Mana Bullets, this time, she aimed at their Magic Crystal.

"EAT LEAD BITCH!"

BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!

Crack… CRASH!

"UNNNGGH..! AAAGH!" The Giant Phantom groaned in agony, grasping his own Magic Crystal and escaping Rita's attacks while bringing forth dozens of Skeleton and Zombie Monsters to attack her. "CRUSH HER!!!"

"ROOOAAARR!"

"GROOOAARR!"

"SHAAAAAHH!!"

"That's not going to work!" Elayne said, stepping forward and swinging her shovel-staff with all her strength. The tip of her weapon started shining brightly with a powerful Spiritual Light, as her enormous powers were channeled fully. "Irene! Let's do it! [Spiritual Explosion]!!!"

"GOT IT! TAKE… THIS!"

The weapon itself spoke as she unleashed her combined powers with Elayne, a gigantic blast of spiritual power impacted the Undead Monsters, completely disintegrating them, at the same time as their magic crystals fell into the ground shattered, the beam hit another Giant Phantom, the very one Rita had attacked, and finished it off with a loud, over-dramatic explosion.

BOOOOOOOOMMMMM…!

"That's not all!" Elayne roared, hitting the floor with her foot as the ground, surrounding trees, plants, herbs, mushrooms, everything, began to move to her own commands. "[Terrain Takeover]! [Nature Spirit's Rage]!"

TRUUUUUMMMM…!

All plants in the vicinity gathered together as they wrapped around one of the Giant Phantoms near Elayne and attacked the rest of them. Despite being solid, the plants were able to touch and fight the Phantoms by taking the power of the Nature Spirits within them!

"GRAAAAHHH…! H-How come her mere incarnation is so strong?!" Cried the Giant Phantom Elayne caught, only for her to jump over him and crush his Magic Crystal with a strong, piercing blow from her weapon. "[Wooden Spear]!"

CRAAASH!

Her weapon suddenly shapeshifted, as it was still ultimately made of wood, turning into a sharp and powerful spear and shattering the Giant Phantom's Magic Crystal with ease.

"UUUAAAGGGH…!

POOOOOF!

The monstrous Undead's entire body dissipated into thin air as his Magic Crystal's shattered pieces fell apart. At the same time as Elayne and Rita killed them, Mark was also unleashing his powers to fight back.

"[Infernal Blazing Lion Totem Spirit]!"

FLUOOOOSH!

"ROOOOAAARR!"

A majestic lion made of wood and fire emerged, leaping over one of the Giant Phantoms and burning its phantasmal body.
