Chapter 431: Time to start the offensive
Hundreds of kilometers away from the shores of Kylen Country, a young man, and a small yellow cat emerged from the waters. Vlad and Jormungandr were exhausted, their bodies heavy from the intense battle they had just fought. Yet, broad smiles spread across their faces, a mixture of relief and triumph lighting up their eyes.
It was true that three of the Harvesters had managed to escape, but the amount of biomass contained within those was insignificant compared to the colossal losses the Leviathans had suffered around the shore.
"Well," Vlad began, his voice hoarse but filled with satisfaction, "we did it."
Jormungandr nodded, his small form bobbing slightly with the movement of the water. "Three escaped, but considering we destroyed twenty of them, I’d say that’s a victory."
"Agreed," Vlad replied, more than happy with the outcome. After all, their attacks manage to take down more than just Harvesters. They also take down more than half of the Elite Units. As for the Leviathan warriors and aerial units, less than thirty of the former remained, and the combined efforts of their group had eradicated more than twenty thousand aerial units.
While the Depravitas and the Viking princess had sustained wounds and pushed their energy pools to the point of exhaustion, none of them had suffered serious injuries. They hadn’t been forced to consume powerful drugs with dangerous side effects that could incapacitate them for weeks. No matter how one looked at it, the mission was a great success.
Vlad turned to look at Jormungandr, concern flickering across his features. "How are you feeling?" he asked.
The small yellow cat glanced up, his eyes reflecting fatigue. The transformation into the World Snake had been an extremely powerful spell that consumed not only a massive amount of energy but also two streams of Depravita Aura. It had placed immense pressure on Jormungandr’s soul and body.
Calling the World Snake a Sage Tier Spell would not be wrong, which was why it was so powerful and also so dangerous to use. Only someone like the Depravita of Gluttony, with an energy pool at the Guardian Tier, could wield it.
