"I see. It looks like we have to be more careful, Mister Penn."
"Yeah, let''s go."
Wilbur led Tracy forward while unleashing the dragon aura in his body. Soon, his dragon aura was spread out with Wilbur as the center. It enveloped ten meters around him. That was almost his limit for his strength.
However, Wilbur felt something strange. He could not believe that there were no signs of snake monsters within ten meters. ording to the frequency of their encounter with snake monsters, there should be a snake monster by then. He wondered why there were no signs of snake monsters in the fog.
Suddenly, Wilbur detected an iing arrow. He quickly dodged and grabbed the arrow. The arrow was up to two meters long, and it almost hit Tracy in the back. Tracy looked frightened, and Wilbur quickly said, "Quick! They''re ambushing us! Cast a defense spell!"
Wilbur chanted and activated the Earth-type defensive skill, Earth Wall.
Meanwhile, Tracy also activated a light shield. More than ten arrows shot toward them the moment they had their defensive spells up. After that, more arrows shot toward them from the sides.
Wilbur could only create more Earth Walls to protect both of them from the iing arrows. Wilbur also activated the thunder-type spiritual shield to block the arrows on top of them. Arrows rained down on them in the blink of an eye. The Earth Wall was soon covered in arrows.
The arrows were made of metal. Moreover, Wilbur noticed that the two-meter-long arrows had pierced half a meter into the Earth Wall. It proved that their opponents were strong. Otherwise, the arrows would not have such piercing power.
Things finally went quiet after the rain of arrows. Wilbur and Tracy looked at each other. They were about to speak, but they heard a horn sound from the depths of the fog. Then, Wilbur felt the ground shake. War carriages could be heard, as well as the slithering movements of snake monsters. It was as if more than a hundred snake monsters were charging right at them.
"They''re here."
Tracy looked at Wilbur fearfully and asked, "Now what?"
Wilbur replied, "It looks like they came prepared. Since we can''t escape, we should fight. Tracy, show me what you got."
"Alright. Let''s fight together."
Soon, the carriages stopped. Wilbur could sense that the snake monsters had the Earth Wall surrounded. Suddenly, a sharp scream could be heard from the fog. Wilbur detected that something wasing at them rapidly from the sky. Just then, a pterosaur appeared in the sky. The pterosaur saw Wilbur and Tracy hiding underneath the Earth Wall.
It shrieked, then flew away again. The snake monsters outside started attacking again, raining down arrows on them. Wilbur and Tracy were in their defensive shields, so they managed to dodge the rain of arrows.
Soon, Wilbur detected the pterosaur again. He formed a thunder spear in his left hand and aimed toward the sky.
Boom!
The thunder spear hit the pterosaur and instantly exploded. A ball of fire burned in the air, and the pterosaur fell and crashed. Arrows rained down on them again. The arrows covered the Earth Wall, and Tracy''s shield broke twice. Wilbur''s thunder-type defensive shield also broke once.
Tracy asked nervously, "What should we do? We''ll die here if this goes on. The snake monsters are too cunning. They hid from afar and attacked us with arrows. They won''te near us."
Wilbur said, "Hang on for a while. I have an idea."
In fact, Wilbur had been thinking ever since the arrows started raining down on them. It was apparent that they were dealing with an army of snake monsters. The snake monsters were powerful, so if they trespassed into the snake monsters'' territory, he was afraid that they would be stabbed to death even if they could take out some of the snake monsters.
