Theo's umbrella had barely opened before everyone moved.
''Let's go!'' Jim shouted, jumping off the dune towards the lower-ranking Cobras.
Iris followed after him right away, hundreds of small metal petals forming in the air around her.
As they dashed forward, the serpents began noticing them too.
HISSSSS! HISSSSS!
They began hissing amongst each other as a purple fog spread out around their bodies.
''Long range it is!'' Jim shouted, sliding to a halt.
A concentrated orb filled with light mana formed between his hands.
After only a second, a massive beam of light shot forward.
It was so bright that the entire desert lit up around them.
Even the serpents' shadows inside the purple fog became clearly visible!
ZZZZZZZ!!!
Like a laser, he dragged it through the purple smoke.
Wherever it went, the desert ground turned to glass, and serpents were sliced through like butter.
''Haha!'' he laughed. ''That's much better than against that big worm!''
