两男一女的双龙挺进

After reaching a tactical agreement, all the factions stood in front of a massive earth wall. The sound of rocks shattering echoed as the elemental beast, trapped by Reyes within a series of earth walls, charged forward, eager to destroy the remaining humans.

Nox frowned as he examined his broken dagger. \'How am I going to replace this?\'

Though he had no problem using his bare fists, he was most adept with daggers. After using it for over four years, he had mastered it. He made a mental note to find a new high-quality dagger—if they survived this fight.

"So what\'s the plan?" Captain Bofan inquired, his gaze fixed on the rock wall. Though he couldn\'t see through the imposing structure, he could tell the elemental beast was close, and they needed a foolproof plan as quickly as possible.

"We surround it and attack from all sides," Reyes calmly stated, a calculative glint in his eyes. "Attacking from all directions will confuse it about who to target. No matter how durable its hide is, it will eventually give out. We just need to increase the power of our attacks."

"Not a bad plan," the leader of the Silvermist Guild said, and Captain Bofan and Brolly nodded in agreement.

Meanwhile, Nox knelt down to Thirteen and Fluffington\'s height. By now, everyone had noticed that the dark-haired kid with unusually lightless eyes could control the two beasts to some extent. They were curious and wanted to ask questions, but the fight was far more important.

"Fluffington, I need you to make sure nothing interrupts Thirteen for the next few seconds," Nox instructed, glancing at the panda, whose gaze kept darting between the wall and his master.

The panda was eager to fight! He didn\'t get to battle such powerful opponents every day. Now that he had the opportunity, he intended to make the most of it and enjoy the battle.

"Thirteen, I need you to perform the Dragon Requiem skill!"

Nod! Nod!

The panda and cat stepped forward, the first to break the formation, causing a bit of an uproar among the survivors.

"What is he doing, sending the cat and the panda forward? Does he want them to die?"

"Stupid kid! Why is a kid here again?" the leader of the Skin Men, who looked slightly bulkier than the others, commented, casting a disdainful gaze toward Nox.

\'Stupid... if only they knew,\' the silver-haired youth Ren thought, still getting goosebumps thinking about what the panda had done back in Frostburg.

"Shouldn\'t you stop the kid?" Captain Bofan frowned when he saw the panda and cat advancing.

"Let them be," Reyes said, narrowing his eyes. He also knew what the beasts were capable of. Moreover, his curiosity about Nox had been growing recently. He was beginning to doubt whether the kid was really a mercenary or some big shot from a noble family. After all, how did he get his hands on a powerful movement skill that allowed him to move at the speed of light?

Meanwhile, Thirteen adopted a very serious expression. Fluffington stood beside him, eyes fixed on the wall. If his guess was right, that was the last of the walls.

Just then, the wall crumbled as the elemental beast burst out from the wreckage. Fluffington quickly dashed forward to engage the beast, buying time for Thirteen.

At that moment, Thirteen began his attack! His paws glowed with blue light as he charged forward and struck the air. Blue, green, purple, gold, and crimson energy trails appeared in the midair and merged into a vortex.

[Hurry up!] Fluffington shouted as he was sent flying like a rag doll by the elemental beast.

"I need you all to buy me time!" Nox turned to the others, his voice serious. He looked specifically at Reyes, knowing he was the strategist here.

"Do as the kid says!" Reyes quickly ordered.

"What about the original plan?" The leader of the Bladesong Academy hesitated.

"Dummy, you can buy time for whatever the panda is planning and still follow the plan," Reyes said, feeling a massive headache coming on. Are these students all muscle and no brain?

Soon after, the others went to assist Fluffington. They spread out, trapping the elemental beast in a circle-like formation, bombarding it with all kinds of abilities.

Nahim Wong, the Spectral Archer, pulled on her bowstring, and a conjured arrow materialized on it. She shot the arrow, which split into dozens, aiming at the elemental beast.

However, an ice wall rose up, intercepting all the arrows.

"Aghh!!" With a battle cry, both Cormach and Brenda charged at the beast where the fight was most intense. Closing the distance, Cormach mercilessly slammed his shield into the elemental beast\'s face, while Brenda\'s large sword flashed through the air.

BANG!

A loud bang echoed, but there was still no dent on the beast, causing the warrior to frown. She began slashing at the same spot where she had landed the first hit, her thought process simple: by focusing on that particular place, she could weaken the durability of its sturdy hide.

Captain Bofan, standing a bit farther away, raised his hand into the air and brought it down, slamming the ground with power. As he did, a massive gust of wind erupted from the point of impact, sending dust and debris swirling into the air. The wind blast was so powerful that it created a visible shockwave, rippling outward like a stone thrown into a still pond.

As the shockwave reached the elemental beast, it was lifted and suspended midair, leaving it momentarily vulnerable to any attack.

It was the perfect moment to land a powerful blow.

"Kid, whatever you\'re doing, do it now!" Captain Bofan shouted through gritted teeth. This skill was one of his most powerful, and it consumed mana by the second.

Fortunately, Thirteen was ready at that moment, and Nox shouted for everyone to fall back, which they quickly did.

\'Time to end this,\' Nox thought with a grin.
