Baltimore looked at his people pouring in with an evil glint in his eyes. He further reinforced the pathway with much of his remaining mana, making sure the various attempts to take it down wouldn't succeed.
But then he felt danger approaching and he immediately jumped down. He felt that the danger wasn't over and he immediately raised the soil below him to block it.
BANG!
He watched with wide eyes as the sharp ice went past the wall and was stopped just an inch away from his face.
It vibrated and he could tell more force was put so it'd continue to stab. By instinct, he rotated the earth so the spike pointed away from him—and he did so just in time before it stabbed deeper.
Slash!
FLOP!
He turned to see one of his men fall beside him, skewered by a large piece of ice that was meant for him.
This person was a level 16, and he was killed with a single ice spike.
