"W-What…?" Octane asked in shock.
"The symbols… they tricked us," Iris spat in disgust.
"No…" Finn muttered quietly, too weak to speak up.
"Huh…?" Iris slowly got back up from the ground using her wings, though her mana was running low.
"If the symbols were tricking you… we would've already died at that priestess's stage…" Finn explained faintly. "This… was supposed to happen…"
Iris immediately realized what Finn was trying to say and aimed her sniper for the Baron's head once again, before letting go of the trigger.
And just as expected, it used its tentacles to block the bullet, rather than letting it hit.
"I see…" Iris breathed in awe. "Everyone, attack him with everything you have! He's damageable now!"
"Hmph… he actually blocked rather than just letting it hit like before?" Qi Ling muttered, readying her own Angelica. "I understand how this works now."
