“Captain, please calm down, I wouldn’t dare!”
At this moment, the Bear-man Erosion Eraser recognized he had overstepped and immediately bowed his massive head, holding his tongue.
“Were it not for my pleasant mood today, you would have been tossed into the Abyss of ‘Erosion’.”
The Ear-wing Erosion Eraser shot the bear-man a frosty look. He then surveyed the remaining Erosion Erasers before shifting his focus back to the spectacle unfolding beyond the spatial tear.
The Corrector was vociferously bellowing, spinning erratically like a frantic, unthinking insect.
“Since that’s the case, let me escalate the pressure a notch.”
With that declaration, the Ear-wing Erosion Eraser pointed toward the Golem Puppets encircling the Corrector and began to lightly flick his fingers.
This seemingly simple action instantly ignited a commotion within the central nexus of the magic array where Leo Ray and his companions were stationed.
All eyes were fixed on the Golem Puppets surrounding the solitary Corrector as they inexplicably began to disintegrate, one after another. Shortly thereafter, more than ten additional Correctors, bearing appearances akin to the Deerman Elders, materialized.
Upon the emergence of these new Correctors, the initial Deerman Clan Leader Corrector appeared to regain its focus. It commenced a surge towards the Array Eye, accompanied by the other Correctors.
These Correctors, each being either half-step Tier 7 or at the Peak of Tier 6, exerted immense pressure like colossal mountains pressing down on the Golem Puppets ahead, despite refraining from any direct assaults. The surrounding Golem Puppets, subjected to this overwhelming force, were compressed against one another, emitting groaning sounds as they began to wobble precariously before ultimately fracturing and vanishing under the strain.
Before long, not only the Golem Puppets at the forefront succumbed, but those beneath the Correctors’ feet also dissolved in a domino effect. This revealed an expansive area, capable of holding hundreds, leaving every observer utterly astonished.
Moli, in particular, stared with wide, incredulous eyes, seemingly frozen and speechless.
“Quickly, execute the planned strategy!”
The unfolding events had happened with startling rapidity. Leo Ray flicked Moli’s forehead, jolting her from her stupor and prompting her to promptly initiate the Group Teleportation Technique.
In the subsequent instant, Leo Ray and all the half-step Tier 7 powerhouses within the team instantaneously vanished from their original positions.
The very moment Leo Ray and the others dematerialized, furious energy began to coalesce. Simultaneously, Kira and Fanny, positioned nearby, invoked the City Building Skill, instantaneously erecting a Magic Wall precisely where Leo Ray’s group had stood.
With the manifestation of the Magic Wall, the surging energy dissipated futilely. This turn of events allowed everyone else present to exhale in collective relief.
This sequence was an integral part of the emergency protocol Leo Ray had devised during the summoning of the Golem Puppets.
Although the initial appearance of the Correctors had been abrupt, Leo Ray had astutely observed that their manifestation was not instantaneous but involved a condensation process, analogous to the summoning of Golem Puppets.
Despite the brevity of this process, Kira and Fanny, utilizing their City Building Skill, were still capable of erecting a Magic Wall at close proximity. The construction of an immobile Magic Wall was considerably less demanding than summoning a Golem Puppet.
Consequently, the preceding events unfolded precisely as they had.
Moli’s teleportation spell was likewise a component of Leo Ray’s contingency planning.
While spatial ability users of ordinary caliber found teleportation within the Barrier Area exceedingly difficult, Moli encountered minimal obstacles, particularly with Bruce’s crucial assistance.
The intended destination for their teleportation was, naturally, the sector where the mysterious spatial weaknesses had emerged.
Leo Ray fully grasped the highly unusual nature of the situation. He reasoned that if they could seal some of these vulnerabilities before a greater number of Correctors materialized, it would undoubtedly diminish the strength of their adversaries.
As an energetic wave surged outward, Leo Ray and his team reappeared directly before the Correctors.
The Moon Shadow Magic Array had achieved a state of heightened alert the instant the defenses of the Array Eye were threatened. Even though Leo Ray and his team suppressed their intent to dismantle the magic array, they were immediately identified as targets by the Correctors.
Upon perceiving Leo Ray and his companions, the foremost Deerman Clan Leader Corrector let out a furious roar. Wielding a newly formed Magic Wand, it lunged towards Leo Ray with overwhelming force!
The other Correctors followed suit, their visages contorted, and their momentum formidable. It must be noted that these entities, bolstered by the magic array’s amplification, were virtually unstoppable. Even a standard Tier 6 Corrector presented a significant peril to their contingent of half-step Tier 7 experts.
As Leo Ray detected the proximity of other Correctors, he and his team promptly divided into two smaller units. The physically robust members, spearheaded by Leo Ray himself, swiftly moved to the Barrier Area's perimeter to intercept the incoming hostiles. Concurrently, the magic-wielding members commenced the summoning of new Golem Puppets and the erection of Magic Walls, aiming to expeditiously seal the vulnerabilities that had emerged at the edge.
“Curse the Emperor of the Human Race! I, the Clan Leader, extended a warm embrace to welcome you, only for you to repay such hospitality with treachery, aiming to shatter the unparalleled prosperity of the Moon Shadow Deerman. None shall shatter our dream!”
The Deerman Clan Leader Corrector’s countenance contorted with malice, unleashing a barrage of hundreds of thorny vines that swept menacingly towards Leo Ray and his comrades!
“Preposterous! Offering withered ashes and stale bread is your idea of a warm welcome? Cast your gaze upon this decrepit, fetid Deerman capital! It is a veritable disgrace, even for a mere second-tier power such as ourselves!”
Lila, her slender and elegant figure moving with a dancer’s lightness, her longsword radiating an icy luminescence, launched an assault in a dazzling display of silver arcs. She directly confronted the encroaching danger, her voice sharp as she declared, “This dilapidated city cries out in anguish, the Deerman blinded by illusions weep, and even you, the architects of this, cannot escape your doom. Should this persist, you will not only be submerged in delusion but will drag the entirety of the Deerman race to ruin alongside you!”
“Peak Spin Slash•Frenzy!”
Following Lila’s chilling pronouncement, the countless vines suspended in the air were ruthlessly severed by the fierce radiance of her sword, tumbling ineffectually to the earth.
However, at that precise moment, a colossal hand formed of earth, like a tempest unleashed, emerged from Lila’s flank, conjured by the Deerman Grand Elder Corrector.
In the ensuing second, the gargantuan hand slammed shut with formidable force towards Lila, who, caught off guard in the aftermath of her sword technique, displayed a visage of stunned disbelief.
“Sky-breaking Thunderbolt Flash!”
A resplendent streak of purple sword light descended from the heavens, obliterating the earthen hand into fragments. The rescuer, quite naturally, was Leo Ray.
Having neutralized the opponent’s maneuver, and before Leo Ray and Lila could regain their composure, the Deerman Clan Leader and Grand Elder Correctors, both formidable magic-type experts, directly engaged them in a close-quarters clash, unleashing spells with escalating ferocity.
Meanwhile, Hollis and Rax found themselves locked in combat with over a dozen Tier 6 Peak Correctors, effectively held in temporary stasis.
It bears highlighting that these particular Correctors existed in a state of invincibility, rendering them impervious to severance or destruction, and their physical prowess was in no way inferior to Leo Ray’s group, plunging them into a perilous engagement.
Ultimately, they were not only compelled to parry the attacks of their adversaries but also to meticulously manage the repercussions of these assaults on their surroundings, thereby safeguarding the nearby Golem Puppets from obliteration, a situation that decidedly placed them at a strategic disadvantage.
Fortuitously, the concentrated attention of the dozen or so adversaries remained fixed solely upon Leo Ray and his immediate companions, which maintained the situation within a manageable scope.
As Leo Ray and his cohort engaged in this intense melee, Moli, Fei’er, Kira, and Bruce, with utmost haste, began summoning Golem Puppets to commence the repair of the breached sections.
Yet, no sooner had the repair efforts begun than additional Correctors materialized inexplicably from the surrounding exposed areas, launching a savage counter-assault from their rear.
