"Everyone get behind me and huddle close together!" Su was already in front of Midnight and Onyx whole were using their bodies as shields for Remey. Onyx had only reduced his size a fraction so that he wasrge enough to coil around Midnight and act as a first shield. The sight of the pair working so closely touched Walkers'' heart. But this was not the time for emotions like that.
"I am going to use my wide guard skill. Just focus on staying behind me and my shields should block anythinging from the front." Su gave ast warning as Walker adjusted the tower to have a thicker front wall. The roof would be the problem due to falling debris.
Using the high earth sculpting skill Walker moved the earth from the ceiling toward the front wall and thickened it. This was hisst ditch to deal with the more focused lighting attack from the tri tailed moth.
"Here is the best method of attack." Wade was taking the close gathering as an impromptu strategy meeting. This was the perfect time to figure out how they would either retreat or defeat the moth. "The tails where they store mana are weak. But the wind elemental tail will stop arrows so we need to divide its'' attention."
"Then we take out its mana sources and go in for the final blow?" Gil was already understanding the n.
"Or we could stop its ranged attacks and retreat." Trish was more on the run away side because she knew that the size of the tri tailed moth was still enough to give them all a lot of trouble.
"No, it is going to chase us. Those in the city can assist us but if we reach there and it attracts more of its species then we will be bringing a gue." The lunar priestess had seen the moths spread the pheromones on their wings and attract more moths before. Thest time they nearly lost a garden and spirit cedar. If it happened this time a garden could be the least of their worries due to the stronger effect therger tri tailed moth would have.
"We will stay and fight, now cover your heads!" Walker braced everyone for the attack he felting. With everyone curled tightly behind Su, she used her wide block skill while mming her shields together to make onerge shield.
The shield thrummed as she pulled the stored mana out to activate the skill. The runes carved t draw mana on them shimmered and a translucent dome covered everyone. She had learned this skill when she equipped the shields and practiced with them. It was currently her strongest blocking skill for the express reason that it doubled her defense and magical defense by creating a dome of her own mana. The only downfall was the cost of mana she paid.
Therget boom they had heard yet reverberated in the air as the earth wall shatters in to pieces of hardened earth. The tower fell to pieces in a matter of seconds while Su''s skill and shields deflected the pieces of super heated earth. The damage was mitigated by her but the tower would not be able to be rebuilt before the moth was able to attack them again.
"I am firing my arrows!" Wade yelled and so did Gil. They ran in opposite directions trying to draw the moths'' attention. The enforcers followed their lead and Walker realized that this was the best time for the newly created fusion spell he had worked on with the mages.
The moldable crystal ball appeared within his hands and Walker started to manipte its shape in to that of a spear. He used the de of night and day skill causing the inner darkness and light elemental mana to re up and create the dominating spear he had tested before. He nned to let everyone distract the tri tailed moth and rush in to use his quick jab skill to start bleeding mana and decaying the moth.
The arrows that the enforcers, Wade, and Gil fired were blown away by the wind elemental mana the tri tailed moth was producing. This was making it receive zero damage every time they fired. The fact that they were limited to normal arrows due to the possible damage to the garden did not help.
Walker moved forwards and tried to get nearer. But the moth was very vignt and retreated. There was a water bolt sent his way that Su managed to deflect. She retreated to Remey again and gave Walker a worried look. She was protecting the one who couldn''t move but wanted to also protect Walker. It was the struggle of any shield user.
They were having more and more trouble getting any hits on the moth as they fought. Only one or two arrows had pierced the moth but they were small wounds unable to be called real damage. "I need to use my elemental arrows again!" Gil yelled that he had to attack with all his might but he was met with a shake of Wades'' head. He had been lucky with the fire elemental arrow before because the azure butterfly stopped it. But now there was no such skill to stop the attack damage range.
I didn''t think there would be such a great weing party for the ambassador of the demi-human kingdom orf Ordist. I have truly underestimated the forest elves." A familiar voice echoed around them making the noise of the battle fade away temporarily.
"I''m d to see my little champion doing well. But where is that brawler? She looked at Walker then at Su. "I easily spotted the guardian that showed off a great dual wielding two shields but I am missing one."
"General Scy!? Why are you here?" Walker shouted more in surprise than anything else.
