By the time John arrived at the second fortress, he found a scene of utter chaos!
Isabella had already discovered yesterday that the six monsters possessed mutually countering attributes, yet they lacked high attack power and speed!
Even after consuming a potion to boost her speed, she could only barely dodge their attacks.
The supply of monkey wine John had given her was running low, so she had to ration it carefully!
She had already been hit by the Frost Giant's attacks twice recently, stacking her buffs quite high.
Drinking now would risk incurring a drunken debuff!
"Buff me!" she called.
Without any hesitation, John shouted a command to the Thorned Rock Serpent and then sprinted forward at breakneck speed!
Meanwhile, Rosalind was not idle, waving her staff and casting a full suite of buffs on John—speed, fury, continuous healing, mental enhancement!
