KRRRRR!
The Nexusborn Ravager roared, its molten vines lashing.
Clayton's Aphid Network countered; Spore Plague Lords corroding its flame, even as Thornweave Sentinels pierced its joints, but it crushed a Thorn Hound in retaliation before collapsing.
Finally, after literally days of living on the edge, fighting desperately for his life and his Rootsite, the Verdant Lord form was no longer fighting a losing battle.
This was the advantage of living 2 lives.
Clayton was now enjoying the benefits of his Architect rank Aspect.
He was one of if not the only Awakened in existence to live 2 lives. It gave him this privilege of one of his bodies staying rooted to his Rootsite, protecting it, while the other was free to roam and explore the Genesis-infested world.
It was what enabled his humanoid body to make friends; allies.
And now, not just the humanoid body, but the Verdant Lord body was also enjoying the benefits of the friends that the other body made.
