Changing the trajectory of my body, I turned left mid-flight. Along with it, I swung my Faker mace at the tree fungus hybrid. It made a loud, eerie groan before it suddenly spewed yellow fog in my face.
[Mithridat class 4 neurotoxin detected. {Digest} Unable to neutralize substance]
[{Mind Shield} has been overpowered. Recalibrating.]
For a brief moment, I suddenly began to hallucinate; the treant turned gigantic and its bark began to bleed red. Its cries began to turn into the voices of the Sirens, all begging me to save them.
Fighting my impulse to pull back, I lunged for the tree as the pitiful cries of my girls came from inside it.
'You are not real! They are not here!'
"ARGGGHGHHH!! {FAST FORWARD!}"
I could have used {Rewind} to retreat, but I didn't want to waste my ability. Although the cooldown had greatly diminished, {Rewind} still needed five minutes between uses. That might sound short, but in a high-stakes battle, it was enough to get someone killed.
