The magical beasts were the mercenaries' secondary fighting force, and they would summon them before the fight began.
In the blink of an eye, a team of a thousand men and a thousand magical beasts had rushed toward the Phoenix's nest.
The mercenaries looked excited, instead of anxious or scared.
Even though a high-level magical beast was a troublesome target for them, they had the numbers to deal with it. It was like using chickens to deal with an eighth-ranked magical beast.
A few of the mercenary leaders were eager to lead their group to the frontline as they wanted a piece of that fat juicy pie.
"Leader! Is that the Phoenix's nest?" One of the mercenaries looked at the massive cave with excitement. The entrance of the cave was even higher than the Mercenary Guild, and it seemed remarkably majestic. The fire element that spread throughout the surrounding area was an affirmation that the Phoenix was inside the cave.
