The sound echoed again—the unmistakable noise of something being forcefully driven into the ground.
Then, they saw it: numerous ice crystal spikes floating in the air, still speckled with dirt along their edges, resembling the sharp fangs of some great beast.
As their eyes followed the scene, they spotted Kisha nearby, each ice crystal spike being slammed into the ground one after another with precision.
Astonished by the sight, everyone watched in awe as their City Lord effortlessly controlled so many ice crystal spikes in the air, driving them into the ground one by one.
But the question lingered—where had she gotten them? They all glanced around, searching, but Rose was nowhere to be seen.
"Captain Rose is still out," a haggard, breathless man, still sweaty from the heat, said as he stood near one of the ice crystal spikes to cool off.
