New roots and vines started to grow at the wound, only to be shrieking and withering by the touch of raging flames. The treent adapted by reusing its old plan. It ripped apart the road again and frisbeed a chunk of it toward the dome, where a giant, sickly green ethereal serpent was already waiting to absorb the blow. The defense stood strong, and the debris bounced off. [quote]"Could you all deal with the Roots Slinging one?"[/quote] Said a very big knight with crimson armor. That was a sound plan indeed; thorns were still growing over the barrier, and although the Ranger knew what Vesemir was capable of, his mana wasn't anywhere near bottomless. Suffering from mana shortage herself, she stepped out of the barrier looking for a clear line of fire to attack the backliner ent. It seemed to have been tunnel-visioned to break the barrier as if it were the most dangerous thing in existence. It still bowed, claws embedded into the ground. Its eye face forward, peering into the distance, flashing with green light. And she aimed, breathed once to calm her mind. Sweat drops dripped down from her forehead, and tints of red surfaced on her blue irises. An arrow released, its head gleamed with explosive enchantment. The frontliner ent saw it, but before it could throw itself to block the arrow, another ethereal thing in the shape of an orange jaw gripped its torso, dragging it away, and the burning ent tried to wrestle free. The arrow blasted the backliner ent right on its single eye, heavily staggering it and forcing it to cancel the entanglement. Seeing the opportunity, the ninja climbed the now-lizard-shaped knight and sent forth another big fire toward the staggering ent, further knocking and immolating it instantly before satisfyingly sliding down her teammate's tail. Just like their caster in the distance, now burning in fire, the rampaging growth of roots and vines suddenly lost its vitality and started to wither. The grizzled mercenary coyly looked at her as she jumped back into the barrier. [b]"Lady, you stole our job! What should we do now?
