Macradon

He would not hit as he jumped too far, he had to train a bit more before he would be able to calculate that. He would then get hit by two piercing vine as a group of roots would fly up from the ground, grabbing around Macradon. The thorn vines would then begin to slash him, one after one. Dealing tremendous damage upon Macradon who struggled to get out of the grip. No paralyzing blows were dealt, only hard hitting and tearing lashes.

A screech would appear as he cut one of the vines. A flood of screeches would then appear while a flock of plants emitted from the ground, sprouting up as newborn with more fierce weaponry than thorns. More limbs and being able to go down into the ground and sprout up again. One of them died from the cut, but that was one, out of many.

A couple of thorn vines were lashing towards Macradon as he would jump out of the way and Cyclone them.

As he would find out, it was not something with light, it was basically just dead plant vines he would find out as some light would get through some cracks on the wall. He would look around, just an empty room, how the light came all the way down here was a mystery, but here it was. Macradon would just walk around, trying to look for another entrance to a room. he would look up and down, beneath the dead plants and the wounded tree walls.

While looking around, he would try to cut walls, ground and plants with his sword, trying to find an entrance somewhere.

He saw that Dande would leave the party, and by so, the quest was done, Macradon would disband the party and listen to the remark that Dande would give the two boys a friend request.

''Well, I sent one to you both earlier today, just as we met.'' he would answer as he would wipe away his tears and strap his big sword to his back again.

As he would walk into one of the underground rooms, he would not be able to see any of the walls, they were all covered in vines and roots. Macradon would use his sword and cut around, trying to see if there are any openings as that would make more sense for plants to be underground. Lifeforms needed sunlight, did Virtual creatures need that too? Macradon would just jump around, trying to cut as much on the top and the sides of the room, trying to get some light in as it was very dark.

They would all go down, one by one after the chain strike. He would just smile as they would all fall with a cry for help. Macradon would jump away, trying to locate anything needed for this to be done, he would open up the quest log again and look for the item he was needed to find.

Retrieve a medicine ingredient «Little Nepent's Ovule».

Macradon haven't found any of that yet, but he would just lurk around in the hive of the Nepent's as he would try to find the queen, that would mostly have the requested quest item.

The plant would die with the first strike he made upon the vine, with courage he would run to the next plant and slash it at the exact spot as the one before on the vine. He would then also go the the next and do the same and then again. Expecting them all to go all pixel with the death strike. His health would go up to 11 again by his battle healing so that would be great to keep by his side and try to train it up so he would regain health faster.

It was ineffective, it was not the roots nor the vines which were the weak spots, then what could it be. He had slain a bunch of the mobs by cutting their vines, what could it be that killed them. Maybe specific spots on the vines and not just the entire vine nor root. He would try to aim for different spots on the vines and then watching how much health would go down on the plants.

His Exp went up a lot, soon level 6 if he kept killing like this, but how did so many die? Was there more people down here? The only thing he hit was the vines the whole way down. Now it hit him, of course he didn't do a lot of damage to them, he was always dealing with the immobile body and not carrying about the vines as he thought they were only weapons and not vital for the mob. He would rush towards the closest plant which was isolated from the rest of the group and the go for the roots underneath the plant and the vines, trying to gut most of the from giving signal to the body or the vines getting signals from the body, whichever it was.

He would jump down into the hole, not grabbing anything than his sword to edge it into the side of the tree and glide downwards, cutting the vines. He would fall with a controlled pace, though he could slow down and speed up by the angle the sword would be held inside the tree side. He would just fall down to the bottom and see all the plants who's vines were lingering to the sides of the tree, it was those vines he had been damage on his way down. Many of them died from that, as the speed and massive damage was dealt the long way down.

Walking even further into the jungle, he came to what looked like a dungeon, a tree with a deep hole that would go down a long time, while having lots of vines, thorns, insects and some light flowing in. The air was dense and moist and uncomfortable to breath, but Macradon had to look for this beastly plant.

Macradon has learned their attack pattern, their attacks position and their attack methods, but Macradon had still not found their weak spot. He would keep on looking, trying to get into a great position to defeat these plant quicker, so he would be able to defeat the greater boss. He would still run around, trying to find another pant so he would be able to analyze it more into depths.

As his attacks were futile, he would then go to another method. Just a lot of hack and slash, without no real concentration. With swift slashed, he made the plant disappear with the many strikes. He would smash everything down and run again, not bothering about the loot from the plant. He would simply try to find another plant and use that when it was dead.

He would find another plant and rush towards it with his attacks.

Not a lot of damage was done, but the plant seemed to stand still. He would keep his pace with swipes of normal attacks, trying to keep his combo of normal attacks without breaking his damage output. He would keep his DPS high while evading attacks, but right now, not many attack were thrown. Macradon would throw a last Avalanche as his killing blow.

He would get himself free, and do the damage done. A fast swipe at the vine holding his leg would loosen the grip as the damage would hurt the plant. Then as a vertical drop, Macradon would use his sword and slash downwards with an Avalanche, cleaving a good chunk of damage down onto the plant, then a Cyclone to quickly give it another hit. It would be enough to make it die and pixelate and disappear. Just the normal drop as usual, nothing special.

He would locate another plant very fast as he had learned the pattern of their ranged assaults and with a sprint Cyclone, he would try to slice a horizontal line through the plant, then a slash back and then cyclone again, ending it with stab and pull himself up in the air, slashing vertical with an Avalanche.

It was hard to pick out an epic song of the Two Steps from Hell franchise ... but To Glory is by far my favorite after I just listened 3 albums through quickly xD

As he would hang down head down with his health getting lower and lower by the strong swipes of the plant. Macradon would try to use his willpower, but the programmed paralyzing would hold him still as his health went down by a lot as he would now be at 5. As he looked upon his health bar, the status was gone and he could freely move now. He was above the plant so he chose to make a normal swipe against the vine again and then an Avalanche with the bonus force of the height and that he was above the plant, then a Cyclone to finish everything of.

:shock:

Look at dem hotties and jail baits!!!!

Damn SAO, you are all fineeeeeeeeee! ;)

Jailbait? Not if you're Danish!!! MUAHAHAHAHAHA

''Fat ... I'm ... not ---fat'' he would say as he would make a crying face as he turned around.

'Sassy bird ... wow' he thought as he would just sob for himself as he sat down, but happy he was of that they had finished the objective and the quest.

Not successful, again. The swipe did not hit the vine and Macradon was pulled up in the air, another vine came in and swiped him, he would take damage and his health was down to 9 again, his battle healing had got him to his full potential from the first swipes, but now this swipe was stronger, a lightning mark appeared on Macradon's healthbar, he would not b able to move anymore, he was paralyzed by the poisonous thorns.

Alright with me! :D

As again, his fighting abilities were not good, he had to train some more, but as a level 4 player, he managed to do the work, hacking and slashing into the plant, giving it severe wounds. It would fall, as all the attacks had done significant damage because of the many attacks instead of few powerful. This was a way of securing the damage output from the user, a well used tactic. Macradon would feel something around his ankle, something familiar.He would be pulled away, fast as the vine would grab harder to his leg. Trying to get control of himself, he would try to aim for the vine with a slash, as he wanted to get free from this fast pulling while also trying to dodge, logs, trees and alike.

He would find one of the plant mobs, with a quick cleave, he would embark his sword into the plant, using his strength a his max, this was not a sword art anymore, this was just basic strength within a game. With A quick thinking, he would think of a combo of attacks. This first slash, then a slash with the retraction of force going back the same way, then a Cyclone back again, using more force and then a final Avalanche. Hopefully this would go.

Even watching from a distance, Macradon could see that this was not a failure, but a success.

The meat was thrown and eaten, and everything went as it should.

Macradon would jump down and clap a few seconds.

''Congratulations'' he would say as he would pat the girl on her shoulder.

The wolf would just outrun Macradon very fast, but it was better than trying to sit on a fox with more people. Macradon would get into the field of sound of Dande as he would hear the plan. Macradon would climb up in one of the trees and watch from a distance as the the two would go into a bush.
