Adelina's second soul ring ignited. Lightning erupted around him, forming a crackling spherical barrier that blasted the approaching vines away. Freed, he lunged forward.
But in the next instant, one vine gleamed with gold.
Golden veins flared as it curved along the edge of the lightning field, slipping through the gaps and snapping tight around Adelina's body. The electric barrier shattered as the vine constricted, binding him in place.
At the same moment, Eustace's lightning sphere slammed into Ray.
Ray's right hand twisted, transforming into a golden dragon claw. He crushed the sphere in his grip. Sparks sprayed outward, then vanished like dying fireflies.
Boom!
The heavy silver hammer collided with Sigurd's shield.
Iron Wave Shield.
As its name suggested, the shield's surface rippled in layered waves. Sigurd's first soul skill, Iron Wave Strike, combined offense and defense, stacking three layers of power in a single charge.
