"Princess Thessalia!"
Many elves on the Great Wall cried while everyone else widened their eyes in shock at the penetrative power of the mutated rat's ballistic lightning spikes.
Swoosh~!
Supre Elder Haldir imdiately took off from the Great Wall after equipping his vine armor and wings, flying towards the plumting airship in hopes of saving Princess Thessalia.
"Please be safe, Princess Thessalia!" The elves quickly prayed.
In the elven camp outside of the military city, Faelyn suddenly turned towards the Great Wall, vaguely sensing sothing that made her heart anxious.
"Is everything alright, Your Highness? Your face looks a bit pale," An elvish man asked out of concern after placing down a barrel and wiping the sweats off his forehead.
Faelyn touched her cheeks absentmindedly before she shook her head, "It's fine. I'm just feeling a little unsettled for so reason."
"Perhaps, sothing big has happened on the Great Wall? If it puts your heart at peace, you can go check, Your Highness. You do not need to worry about us. We'll be fine on our own for now." Another elvish man spoke.
At that mont, large banana leaf trees were erected everywhere in the area, sucking up all the water in the ground and casting a massive shade over the elven camp for the tribesn to take shelter from the hot sun.
Many tribesn could be seen resting on the vine floor, massaging their sore muscles from the long trip, while others fanned themselves due to the heat.
At the sa ti, a few elven volunteers could be seen distributing bananas around to the tribesn to satiate their hunger and recover their energy.
"Then I will go and check for a bit," Faelyn said hesitantly while looking around at her tribesn, urging her to leave.
"Yes, Your Highness. Don't worry about us and go with a peace of mind."
"Yeah, maybe you can share with us what is happening out there when you are back, your Highness."
The tribesn spoke.
"Alright, thank you, everyone." Faelyn nodded before she departed the elven camp with a big banana leaf over her head.
Shortly after, Faelyn arrived on the Great Wall.
"What's the current situation?"
"Y-Your Highness? Y-You're here."
The elven warriors were surprised before Faelyn nodded with furrowed brows and said, "Yes, is that a problem?"
"Perhaps, it's better not to co here. It's not safe, Your Highness." An elven warrior warned with a mixture of fear and concern.
Nevertheless, the elven warrior did not retreat from his post.
Faelyn could imdiately sense the tense atmosphere on the Great Wall before she made her way through the rows of elven warriors and soldiers lined up on the wall.
Before she could reach the front, she heard General Marquis Hendrick shouted, "Raise your shields and brace for impact! Here cos another volley of spikes!"
At the sa ti, General Marquis Hendrick snapped his fingers and summoned a winding tempest in front of the Great Wall to divert so of the incoming lightning spikes.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Thousands of ballistic lightning spikes quickly rained on the Great Wall in quick successions, causing audible rumbles on the wall before so soldiers and elven warriors were struck from the front!
The power of the ballistic lightning spikes imdiately pierced the shields of several dozen soldiers and elven warriors, blasting them off the Great Wall along with everyone else behind them!
Faelyn froze as the few people besides her were blown off the Great Wall along with the other unlucky soldiers and elven warriors struck by the ballistic lightning spikes.
The remaining soldiers and elven warriors drew deep breathes to calm their tight nerves before their expression turned extrely grave.
No one knew when the next volley of ballistic lightning spikes would strike them next.
Even so, they cannot retreat unless they were given the order to withdraw. No one also knew when the next breath they draw will be their last, but they were prepared to be killed at any mont!
"Such power… this isn't sothing people below the 9th step Awakener can withstand!" General Marquis Hendrick frowned.
Looking at the gaps in their formation, he was about to order the troops to reform themselves and fill the gaps.
However, such orders were the sa as sending the weaker troops to death.
Faelyn shortly recovered before searched the sky.
"Where's the airship? Where's my elder sister, Princess Thessalia?" Faelyn quickly asked a nearby warrior after failing to locate the airship. After a mont, she also added, "Where's the Supre Elder as well?"
"Princess Thessalia and the Supre Elder are…" The elven warrior shortly responded while turning his gaze towards the front.
Faelyn frowned and quickly made her way to the front before noticing the airship had crashlanded on the surface in the middle of the mutated rat tide.
Although a do of vines fully enclosed the deck and successfully prevented the mutated rats from breaking through, the condition of the people inside remained uncertain.
In the sky, Aria bit her lips with a heavy and guilt-ridden expression.
Although she slew a large portion of the mutated rat tide, she also made the situation worse for the others.
Who would have known the mutated rats were capable of such transformations?
Shortly after, Aria's eyes beca resolute with intense killing intent.
If lightning attacks are no longer effective against the mutated rat tide, she will use elental ice attacks instead!
She raised one of her hands into the sky before the surrounding temperature quickly plumted below the freezing point.
Shortly after, the raindrops transford into sharp icicles, frozen in midair around Aria.
Once her raised hand was dropped, volleys of icicle attacks imdiately rained down on the mutated rat tide, impaling thousands of mutated rats to death!
So dozen miles away from the Great Wall, Leon arrived on a distant hill with Silver stopping beside him.
The rat tide had shrunk significantly since he last left the Great Wall.
However, the situation appeared quite delicate and dangerous as he observed the ongoing icicle shower ahead with [Spirit Eyes].
Shortly after, his gaze shifted to the fallen airship and spikes in the Great Wall.
"To think the Great Wall would fall to such dire straits even with the Elder Tree's help in the area…" Leon muttered with a raised brow before he quickly urged, "Let's go, Silver! Ti to hunt!"
"Awrooo!"
