The low, thunderous roar rolled across the distance like a muffled storm, vibrating the ground and saturating the air with an oppressive weight that made breathing difficult. 220Please respect copyright.PENANAUfTipPr2Gt

Arya’s face paled as she gripped her staff, her azure eyes wide with fear. She tugged at Lu Feng’s arm, her voice trembling. “That sound… It’s from the minions of the Abyssal Lord. They’re even fiercer than ogres.” 220Please respect copyright.PENANAjUzAy9jUgI
220Please respect copyright.PENANApohafG86c4
A flicker of resolve crossed Lu Feng’s brow. “Don’t be afraid. I’m here,” he said quietly, his steady voice washing over her like warm water, dissolving her panic. “No matter what, I’ll protect you—and everyone else in these lands.” 220Please respect copyright.PENANA7sABySmPfg
220Please respect copyright.PENANAp1bRdTzFnr
Side by side, they stood at the edge of Moonlight Lake, their gazes fixed on the shadowed forest ahead. 220Please respect copyright.PENANAB0u0DwhAhJ
220Please respect copyright.PENANAD79hca9Sw4
“We need a detailed battle plan,” Lu Feng urged. 220Please respect copyright.PENANAlSzANsKD0G
220Please respect copyright.PENANAPzzyGHZ007
Arya nodded, her voice sharpening with focus. “The terrain here is complex. There are natural traps we can use to lure the enemy in and strike from advantage.” Her tone carried the confidence of familiarity. “I’ve lived in these woods for years. I know every path.” 220Please respect copyright.PENANA8rcAowb0Du
220Please respect copyright.PENANAHJQJ7eIWQC
Lu Feng raised an eyebrow, impressed. “You’re incredible. Back when I played *Wanling War Chronicles*, I’d always get lost in terrain like this.” 220Please respect copyright.PENANA1yZTHlf0kd
220Please respect copyright.PENANAULWmZJNTQM
Arya chuckled softly. “That’s because you didn’t have an elven princess as your guide.” 220Please respect copyright.PENANAnunQ8IJrPX
220Please respect copyright.PENANAi8VcCYwGEo
Banter aside, Lu Feng activated his tactical simulator, its screen flashing with rapid data and scenario projections. He muttered as he analyzed, “These abyssal creatures rely on dark energy—enhanced speed and strength, but their weakness is light magic and sacred energy. We can exploit that.” 220Please respect copyright.PENANAsyF8UrhRin
220Please respect copyright.PENANAS5iyy59Hhu
Arya’s eyes lit up. “Light magic is my specialty. If we combine my spells with your tactics, we can create a countermeasure.” Together, they swiftly devised a meticulous strategy. 220Please respect copyright.PENANADyh6aiJZ9C
220Please respect copyright.PENANA9OoumdBeCJ
As they prepared, Lu Feng noticed the Shadowcat acting unusually alert near the encroaching enemies. Observing closely, he realized it could sense the dark aura radiating from the creatures. 220Please respect copyright.PENANASIlNlnpT6Y
220Please respect copyright.PENANA5CnvBaQmGn
He knelt and stroked the Shadowcat’s fur. “We’re counting on you to warn us,” he whispered. The feline nodded, its intelligent eyes gleaming as it began patrolling the perimeter like a silent sentinel. 220Please respect copyright.PENANAygxbnPJRoR
220Please respect copyright.PENANAm3M7VCtCSm
Night deepened, tension thickening the lakeside air. Lu Feng, Arya, the Shadowcat, and a small band of hastily gathered warriors waited in silence. 220Please respect copyright.PENANAbkmL3srv86
220Please respect copyright.PENANA3idALG4AX2
The roars grew closer, crashing like tidal waves. 220Please respect copyright.PENANAee8UatZV2k
220Please respect copyright.PENANABWLuLfNoM5
“They’re here,” Lu Feng whispered, raising his staff as a faint glow enveloped him. Beside him, Arya’s staff blazed with warm, radiant power. The Shadowcat bristled on his shoulder. 220Please respect copyright.PENANAM7bs9Frczm
220Please respect copyright.PENANA5kX0zlNMpG
The first wave of abyssal horrors emerged, and the group sprang into action. Using pre-set traps, they funneled the monsters into a killing zone. The ground split open, jagged stone spikes impaling swathes of foes. The Shadowcat’s warnings let them dodge lethal ambushes. 220Please respect copyright.PENANAZtiVH3S74f
220Please respect copyright.PENANAHxlDeLfPz6
The battle raged. Lu Feng commanded with the precision of a conductor, directing warriors into defensive formations to whittle down the enemy. Arya’s light beams seared through the darkness, eliciting agonized shrieks. The Shadowcat darted across the battlefield, exposing hidden threats. 220Please respect copyright.PENANAYJXN7KXeGp
220Please respect copyright.PENANAeZixsUgqjZ
As victory seemed within reach, a deep tremor shook the earth. Lu Feng and Arya exchanged wary glances. 220Please respect copyright.PENANAqUbHsv1G52
220Please respect copyright.PENANA3LeclSAi8G
The Shadowcat yowled, pointing toward the forest’s heart. A thunderous crash echoed as a three-story-tall monstrosity erupted from the trees, shrouded in black mist. Its glowing green eyes burned with malice, and the stench of sulfur choked the air. 220Please respect copyright.PENANAfrauTLKVjZ
220Please respect copyright.PENANAUyPWHwqxap
“Damn!” Lu Feng hissed. The beast swatted aside obstacles, charging toward him with jaws agape. 220Please respect copyright.PENANA7v5xs9jqNo
220Please respect copyright.PENANABWRWMXOIvw
Arya leaped in front of him, her staff blazing. “Not today!” she shouted. A solid barrier of moonlight erupted between them. 220Please respect copyright.PENANAfJMqebuEgz
220Please respect copyright.PENANAdkYtQVTlJW
***CRACK!*** 220Please respect copyright.PENANAxDANe7KYra
220Please respect copyright.PENANATJ5xyNQ1rl
The beast slammed into the barrier, denting it inward. The shield groaned, fissures spiderwebbing across its surface. Arya’s face whitened, blood trickling from her lips. “It’s… too strong! I can’t hold it!” 220Please respect copyright.PENANApiRC0rBhpm
220Please respect copyright.PENANAHbu89Dnqqu
Lu Feng steadied her, his gaze locked on the roaring monstrosity. “I know. Be ready—we’ll need to switch tactics.”
