Nalan: "…"
He looked at his cousin speechlessly.
Sometimes, he felt that his cousin was really stupid and it was hard to describe.
"Deal with them first!"
"Yes!"
"I'm the ember of fire, emitting the fire that burn through everything that stand on my way. Everything will perish on the path of flames. Come forward and burn, destroy everything in front of me. Oh fire of destruction!"
Swoosh!
Fire spread out and these rank 7 magic beasts were burned into ashes under Navi's magic. With the magic power she wielded, it was not surprising for her to be able to deal with these rank 7 magic beasts even when she was still at rank 6.
"Just try it first," Nalan said calmly and then raised his shield.
As a guardian warrior, all he had to do was to protect and be the meat shield at the front. But this didn't mean that he had unlimited mana and stamina. After a certain period of time, Nalan knew that it would be impossible for him to maintain this state anymore.
Heh.
Let's just wait and see.
BANG!
…
Samuel and Riya's side
Slash! Slash! Slash!
Samuel was moving rapidly between these rank 7 magic beasts, killing them all with his sword without giving them any time to respond. His movements were very fast and he basically didn't give them any chance to respond and fight back.
With every slash, the blood from these rank 7 magic beasts spilled but before they could fall to the ground, they would flow towards Riya in the distance.
She used magic to collect these rank 7 magic beasts' blood.
"Is it enough?" Samuel heard himself asking as he continued to shuttle and kill these rank 7 magic beasts. The few lower ranked magic beasts were also killed but Riya didn't bother to collect their blood.
Even if their ranks were actually quite high but for this formation to work, she needed only the rank 7 magic beasts.
"Just a bit more," Riya replied. "I have to make sure that the formation will be strong enough to deal with so many rank 7 magic beasts coming up."
"Got it."
Slash! Slash! Thud!
With Samuel at the front, Riya only had to deal with a small number of rank 7 magic beasts that slipped through Samuel's attack. Even if these rank 7 magic beasts were a bit weaker than the usual rank 7 magic beasts, but they were not that weak at all.
Swish!
"Hmm?"
Sensing the mana fluctuation, Riya turned her head and looked at the distance. When she saw that the shield on City A Base has been raised, her expression darkened.
"Samuel, 67 more!" Riya yelled.
"Got it." Samuel moved even faster, killing these rank 7 magic beasts almost right when they came out of the crack. He didn't know what Riya see and didn't have time to check either.
What he knew was that since Riya asked him to kill 67 more, then he would do it at the fastest speed possible. The urgency in her tone was telling him that there might be something bad happening.
Riya swiftly drew more runes and these rank 7 magic beasts fell down one after another.
Seeing that there were less than 20 magic beasts left, Riya swiftly started to run and used the blood that she has collected to draw on the areas around the crack. The crack was wide and big, but she still has the confidence that she could deal with them.
The only thing she needed to do is to draw the formation bigger than before.
Swish! Swish!
As Riya continued to draw the blood of the rank 7 magic beasts that fell from Samuel's swords, she also drew the runes and after a few seconds, the amount of blood was enough and the formation was complete.
"Step back."
Tep.
Samuel swiftly jumped back and Riya activated the formation without hesitation through crushing a mana stone and guided the mana into the formation.
The formation glowed in red and the magic beasts that wanted to come out were all killed by the formation.
"It's done," Riya said and then turned around with a frown. "We're going back."
Samuel stretched his hand and held Riya's hand.
The next moment, the two of them disappeared from their place and appeared in Riya's room once again. Just like before, Samuel was right in front of Riya and the two of them were almost hugging each other in this posture.
Riya: "…"
Samuel looked at Riya in front of him meaningfully.
If it was not for the wrong occasion, he really wanted to tease the woman in front of him.
"Ahem, let's get out of here first," Riya said and looked out.
The two of them could hear the sound of battle from outside and knew that these magic beasts should have come out from the other crack and headed to City A Base.
And among these magic beasts were definitely the rank 7 magic beasts.
It would be impossible for them to deal with so many magic beasts on their own…
"Would you like to use the previous tactic?" Samuel asked as the two of them ran out of the base towards the wall.
"If I still have the teleportation formation near the cracks, I would like to do so," Riya answered with a frown. "But I can't sense the teleportation formation, so I'm afraid that I have to start from the beginning."
Start from the beginning as in, killing her way out of City A Base.
Many cracks were closed and some cracks were widened for these rank 7 magic beasts to come out.
Riya didn't know which is which.
