"Is the fire extinguished?"
The two were startled at the same time, but in the next moment, the flames quickly returned, dispelling the shadows and their deep-seated panic as well.
"Guardian Fire Sacrificial Ground!"
Beowood suddenly realized.
"Let's head to the Guardian Fire Sacrificial Ground first!"
The two hurried to the center of the fortress, followed by the wood puppet.
On their way there, the flames extinguished several times, as if someone had drawn the curtains, but they came back to life in moments.
Combatants also gathered from various directions; the more people there were, the more at ease they felt.
The crowd quickly reached the central hall on the third floor of the fortress, where intense flashes and roaring sounds accompanied strong spiritual power fluctuations.
An intense battle was taking place in the hall.
