Everything happened so suddenly that nobody had the time to react properly. Finally, after the exchange between Amber and the muscular man, they returned to their senses and were going to move, but it was already late.
Denver was holding Elise tightly as he raised his hand and looked around. He only had one free arm and couldn't use the spear efficiently.
His eyes darted around, and he finally found a lady with a big hand fan in her hand. She grinned and swung the fan, sending a blast of wind at them. The force behind them was high enough to send him flying, so Denver turned around so he would be the one facing the winds.
There just wasn't enough time to defend against the winds. They didn't want to enter the catacombs unless they were forced to, and that's why Denver began to look around for an exit. He needed a place where he could fight properly.
