As a tremor rippled through the ground beneath Ethan's feet, he instantly recognized that this was no ordinary disturbance. It was the queen, harnessing her extraordinary magical abilities and channeling them through the very earth itself.
Faced with imminent danger, Ethan knew he had to act swiftly and decisively.
With lightning-fast reflexes, Ethan leaped to the side, narrowly escaping the devastating attack aimed at the spot he had occupied just moments before.
The ground beneath him erupted, sending slivers of rock and billows of dust soaring into the air. Astonishingly, the iron-tooth rat had transformed the cave floor into a weapon, utilizing its formidable magical powers.
After a frantic roll on the ground, Ethan abruptly came to a halt as his side collided with a piece of machinery. Pain shot through his body, eliciting an instinctual curse from his lips.
