"I haven''t forgotten, Tracy. But you can''t be so selfish."


    "That''s up to me, Wilbur Penn! You can do whatever you want, and I''ll do whatever I want. Let''s part ways here!"


    Tracy turned and walked into the fog, heading to another end of the barrier. Wilbur scrambled to chase after him. Sure enough, Tracy was casting another light spell to break the barrier.


    A ray of sword energy swung over, and Tracy was once again forced to dodge Wilbur''s attack. He turned to look at Wilbur. "You don''t have to do this to me, Wilbur. Look at this barrier."


    Wilbur turned and saw the ripples of white light all across the barrier. The energy of both Tracy and Wilbur''s attacks was absorbed by the barrier at once, and neither of the men was hurt in the slightest.


    Wilbur finally heaved a sigh of relief then. Tracy said, "That senior knew this day woulde, and he made this barrier to stop the ant-men. How are we ever going to match up against them, though?"


    "You''ve disappointed me nevertheless, Mister Penn. Let''s go our separate ways."


    Tracy turned and headed into the fog once more. Wilbur did not go after him this time, as Tracy''s words had just exposed him. After all, how would he know that they would not be able to defeat these ant-men if he knew nothing about them?


    Tracy was a member of the Church of Holy Illuminati, but he came from Light Valley and thus knew many secrets for sure. Tracy had never been honest with Wilbur from the start, and at this point, Wilbur did not care to continue being his ally anymore either.


    The ant-men might be powerful, but the thick fog would be a huge obstacle for them. Wilbur believed that he could use the fog to his advantage and find a way out of there.


    Soon enough, Tracy''s chants could be heard. It seemed like the ant-men had found him.


    The next second, Wilbur could sense four ant-mening toward him from both sides.


    This surprised Wilbur, as these ant-men must have really powerful senses to be able to scope him out in this fog. That meant that fog was hardly a problem for them, or they would not have been able to find his exact location.


    Wilbur waved the cleaver in his grasp, swinging in several attacks. The ant-men dodged quickly before continuing their attack on Wilbur without slowing down in the slightest.


    The ant-men''s movements were way too fast, and Wilbur''s reaction speed could not keep up. He muttered a string of chants, activating his Dragon''s Safehaven.


    All four of the ant-men''s swords pointed at the barrier as they began spinning around the Dragon''s Safehaven, moving back and forth in their attempt to attack the protective barrier.


    Of course, the Dragon''s Safehaven was a blessing from the dragon god, and only someone more powerful would be able to destroy the Dragon''s Safehaven. The dragon god was also most likely from an upper dimension, and thus the ant-men were hardly able to make a dent in the Dragon''s Safehaven.


    Wilbur watched the ant-men from within the barrier, inspecting them closely. He realized then that the ant-men were only capable of a few simple shing and stabbing moves, and these were most likely the least powerful kind of their species. If Wilbur had ducked the attack in time, the attack would not have done anything to him at all.


    Wilbur thought back to the ant-man he had encountered in the Greensource Corp basement. That guy was way too powerful, and Wilbur had just carried on that impression onto these ant-men here.


    Now, however, it seemed like these ant-men''s only advantage was in their speed, and they had no other special powers. Wilbur made up his mind then. Since these ant-men were so fast, he would forge a clone of himself to distract two of the ant- men and get the other two on his own.


    As the Dragon''s Safehaven was about to expire, Wilbur muttered a chant to summon a clone. The next second, another Wilbur Penn appeared and walked forward.
