"Mini magic beasts' tide?" Sean repeated and rolled his eyes. "I think it's more appropriate to say that a small group of magic beasts coming over. There are only around 30 or so magic beasts coming."
"Did you count it?" Sophia asked curiously as she released Akira, her lightning bird, to let it rest on her shoulder.
"Well, the number is more or less that many," Stephen said as he also looked at the distance. The corner of his mouth curled up. "Let control their movents."
"What?"
"I am the woods, the pillar of growth. Let the wood grow even more vigorously and entangle the enemy in front of , tangled roots."
Before these magic beasts could co closer to them, roots grew up from the grounds and grabbed their legs. Despite their small size, these roots were extrely strong and these magic beasts were unable to move forward.
But Stephen's mana was limited, so he couldn't deal with so many magic beasts all at once.
Only a few magic beasts at the forefront that was affected.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
What followed was series of gunshots from Stephen who used the gun that Riya gave to him. This gun has beco his main weapon.
"Be careful that you will run out of use," Ruben complained and then started chanting, "I am the devourer of the darkness. May the darkness co forth and halt the movent of my enemies, dark swamp trap!"
Swoosh!
Dark swamp spread out and the second line of the magic beasts were trapped one after another, unable to move forward.
The thods of trapping was different but the result was similar.
"Akira!" Sophia yelled.
Bzzt! Peng! Bang! Bang!
One after another, these magic beasts were killed by the lightning strike from Akira.
"Only half are left," Stephen said as he looked at the magic beasts that ca over while the dark swamp slowly disappeared.
These roots and the swamps were the product of magic and could only co to the being through the use of mana. When the mana's supply was cut off, they would disappear.
"My turn," Sophia said and started to chant, "I am the woods, the pillar of growth. Let the wood grow even more vigorously and entangle the enemy in front of , tangled roots."
Once again, the roots ca out and tangled these magic beasts.
Swish! Slash! Slash!
This ti, it was Sean who ca forward and killed these magic beasts with his sword. The fire elent coated his sword, leaving out scorched magic beasts' corpses.
"Done!" Sean yelled.
"The last few can be given to others," Stephen said and then chanted, "I'm the woods, the pillar of growth. Let the wood grow in front of and protect tightly, wood wall!"
A wall of wood appeared in front of them, blocking these magic beasts from coming any closer.
Sean, who was at the forefront, almost got hit by the wall and yelled, "Hey! Pay attention to where you use your magic!"
"Sorry, sorry, I forgot you're there."
"Pfft hahaha!"
"Ruben! Don't laugh!"
Sophia looked at this group of people who was about to fight and simply collected the magic beasts' corpses first into the space storage scroll before they entered the city.
There were only a few magic beasts left and it could be left to other hunters out there. Anyway, the strongest was only a rank 3 magic beast.
"Tsk." Sean clicked his tongue and then waved his hand. "I'm going to check on my sister! If there are more magic beasts, tell !"
"I don't think you have more mana to fight, Sean," Ruben said earnestly.
After all, Sean has been fighting for a long ti. Moreover, Sean's magic elent was fire and it was most suitable for offense and not anything else.
"I'm fine!" Sean yelled that before he disappeared across the corner.
"Leave him be." Stephen patted Kaze's head. "Let's go back and rest first. We used up quite a lot of mana just now."
"Yes." Ruben yawned and then walked forward by himself.
Sophia looked at Ruben who was going away before turning her head to look at her brother. "Brother, who's Nicholas Ramsey?"
Stephen stopped his movent and turned to look at Sophia. "Where did you hear this na?"
"Alia."
She showed her phone that was in the state of ongoing call until a while ago. At that last mont before the second explosion, Alia was calling Sophia to ask her whereabouts. Thanks to that, Sophia heard the conversation between Arnold and Yer.
Stephen pursed his lips and said, "He's a madman… but he's also Arnold's brother."
"Brother… isn't his na Arnold Shade Sibley?"
Different surna?
"His parents divorced when he's young. He followed his father's surna while his brother followed his mother's surna," Stephen explained.
As for what happened afterwards, Stephen didn't really want to talk about it because it was Arnold's privacy and not really his place to talk about.
Sophia nodded as she continued to ride on Kaze.
"Is he alive?"
"I don't know."
"Huh?"
"He's also a rcenary like Arnold… well, their family is quite ssed up if I have to say." Stephen sighed.
The two children followed different parent but their ending was the sa, to use their skills to fight on the frontline as a rcenary. As for why they didn't use other thods, it was obviously because they needed a large amount of money.
For them, there were not many options they could pick to get a lot of money.
Being a rcenary was only one of them.
At the very least, they didn't end up in the situation where they would be completely desperate.
Stephen hadn't heard about Nicholas for a long ti, so he was not sure about the other party's situation. Arnold said that Nicholas had passed away, but Stephen felt that Nicholas would not die so easily.
They all have t with Nicholas when they were younger.
That young man… was not the type of person who would die so easily.
