Meanwhile, the Aether Crystal Dragon let out a long chant, having just defeated its opponent. Its condition wasn't good, but it still had the strength to swim, and it was now making its way upstream along a river channel.
"Follow the Deep Sea Crystal Dragon!" Ian shouted. He could tell that the dragon's recent chant was a signal for them to follow—out of respect for their prior side-by-side battle, or perhaps because of the Dragon Egg Ian held, the Aether Crystal Dragon had decided to save this group of Humans.
"Shasha!"
"Oh!"
With a loud call, the Ironclad Shark and Andor, who had recovered most of their energy, burst out of the river channel. They had been lurking nearby, waiting for the opportunity to assist everyone's retreat.
Now was the moment!
Everyone mounted on Shasha. Although it was somewhat heavy, with the help of Andor's Origin Quality, the water soared upwards, rushing towards the direction of the Aether Crystal Dragon with great speed.
