Omega Summoner
chapter-715

"Time Stop!" Adrian shouted as only he and Sirius could move in the world frozen in time. He looked back at Mariposa and noticed that she is also affected by Time Stop.

Adrian saw that the red streak of light is actually a Plantae with a thorn whip heading towards them. If Adrian did not make time stop then the whip will definitely hit Sirius in the neck and stop them in their tracks.

"I am burning too much mana from stopping time. Blink!" Adrian stated as a purple light covered him, Sirius and Mariposa. They then appeared behind two Plantae's that rushed to the treasury.

When Adrian disabled the use of his Time Stop, the two Plantae got shocked as their target dodged. Rosei is especially shocked as it was her fastest attack that she can do. She might not be the fastest of the Flora Knights, but she was still the commander.

A commander of the Flora Knights must be able to beat all the other Flora knights or else you will not get their respect as only the strongest will be able to lead in nature. Even Poison Ivy is surprised that a player managed to actually dodge an attack from her master.

One must see that her master is almost in the realm of a demigod which is why the Plantae Queen holds her in high regard. To be able to dodge an attack coming at the speed of sound meant that either he has a skill that can detect aggression or a skill that can predict the future.

Little did Poison Ivy know is that Adrian managed to detect the attack and dodge it through pure instinct. If she knew this fact, then she would have lost her mind that a summoner could have such reflexes. It is quite known that summoners are fragile if they are not with their soulbounds.

This also speaks true for Adrian as he could be beaten by a veteran warrior if he goes to battle with him or her one on one. Adrian in all of his battles does not go head-to-head with the opponent but only stalls them until his soulbounds could also join the battle.

Rosei did not stop her attacks as she immediately tried redirecting the arc of her thorn whip but the Blood Orchid (Graft) that is chasing Adrian suddenly received the attack as it pushed forth with its movement thereby absorbing the attack from Rosei.

The Blood Orchid (Graft) did not expect the attack and some of its vines were cut but it did not care. It needed to get the bulb that was swiped by the hoodlum. It could catch up to them as long as it pushes its body further, but one could see that the Blood Orchid (Graft) is already starting to deteriorate.

The deterioration is not that much but there is visible decay on a small part of its body. It should have been able to take itself out of a wall like that without proper preparation as it is more of a parasitic monster plant than a monster plant that could move.

Blood Orchids would usually find a host that it could jump onto in order to ensure that it could move freely. The host will inevitably die due to blood loss as the Blood Orchid (Graft) would feed on its host until it will find a new host to move upon. This is how the parasitic type of monster plants could move about.

"Master! That is the guardian, right?" Poison Ivy asked.

"It is but this is the first time that I have seen it that desperate and angry. We must kill that demon and drag its corpse to the guardian." Rosei stated as she followed the direction of the Blood Orchid (Graft) that is pursuing Adrian and the others.

"That Insect bitch is really a big problem, but this should be my chance to diminish her reputation!" Poison Ivy stated as she started to stream the chase as she wanted to see Mariposa's defeated face in real time.

"Can you not dive into the shadows?" Mariposa asked as they would be able to escape it Adrian just ordered Sirius to dive into the shadows.

"Sorry but we got an emergency mission the moment we picked you up. We cannot escape via the shadow realm as that treasure is actually interfering with the dive. It seems that it is an object of great power which is why it is rejecting the shadow realm as if it is repelling it." Adrian explained as he got a notification immediately when Mariposa boarded Sirius.

"I have been told that the Compound Eye Orb must always have at least a small amount of light or must never be in total darkness or else it will unleash upon a great terror." Mariposa stated as she could remember that even the robbers dared not to cover the Compound Eye Orb in cloth when they stole it.

The inside of the treasury is also lit in some parts by Luxbells which is a type of flower that can emit light. Although some parts of the treasury are not that bright, it still has some light which the Compound Eye Orb could absorb from.

Adrian looked back and he could still see the Blood Orchid (Graft) in pursuit of their trail. He thought that he needed to throw the bulb overboard, but he heard a faint whisper that begged him not to. He looked around but he could not see any small child begging for help.

"Did you hear a child speaking?" Adrian asked Mariposa.

"Nope. I think it must just be one of your soulbounds speaking through the soul link." Mariposa stated as her soulbounds often converse with her when situations are tight. Some even give warnings to her when she will get a fatal attack. This could only be achieved when a soulbound fully trusts their master as they are not only one soul but also one body.

"I do not think that it is one of my soulbounds as the voice is like that of a petite little girl that is scared. Saena does not sound like that mind you. She prefers the elegant tone rather than the acting cute tone. She is very much a diva." Adrian stated as he could feel Saena giving him the side eye.

Adrian then looked at the bulb in his hands as it is actually glowing. The glow is very much addictive to see but Adrian definitely heard the voice coming from the bulb itself.

"If you save me from that monster then I will follow you eternally. Please do not abandon me." The voice of a small petite girl is coming from the bulb and is communicating to Adrian via telepathy.

Adrian immediately knew that this bulb must be some sort of intelligent monster plant that has yet to fully bloom. It would make sense that the Blood Orchid (Graft) would chase him this far as this thing must be a great food source for something like it.

Pann once told Adrian that all monsters will want one thing when their souls reach the peak and that is to break through the barrier of being a mindless monster. Some monsters achieve this from birth because of their incredible bloodline but some need to get it from others as they are not born with it.

This is one of the reasons why intelligent monsters tend to protect their young until they could protect themselves as they are an easy target during infancy. The bulb must be a monster plant with the golden soul like his soulbounds.

"If I save you then you must follow me when I make you bloom." Adrian stated which made Mariposa a bit confused as he is talking to an actual plant. Then again, some people talk to their plants like they are alive, and she just assumed that Adrian is like that.

"I see the exit!" Mariposa shouted as she could see that a bright light up ahead.

They were about to reach the exit when thousands of thorns suddenly rained upon them. Mariposa could not bear to sacrifice one of her soulbounds but she has no other choice or they will be the ones that will be sacrificed.

She summoned her stag beetle soulbound and ordered it to block all the projectiles heading towards their way. The stag beetle soulbound did not even flinch at the order as it also loved its master dearly. She saved the giant stag beetle when it was getting bullied by other insects its size and it owes its strength to its master.

The stag beetle released an energy barrier using the element that it has. The earth element created a barrier that blocked all the thorn projectiles but the soulbound ultimately died when Rosei and Blood Orchid (Graft) reached its location.. The stag beetle soulbound did all it could to block the way as long as it can in order for its master to escape.
