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. 166Please respect copyright.PENANAG6Dsn6g51Q

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.” 166Please respect copyright.PENANARJMvvVRSEK
166Please respect copyright.PENANAvqcyeXhAEm
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.” 166Please respect copyright.PENANAE8mZ4MefQU
166Please respect copyright.PENANA2N98gKKXdV
Side by side, they stood at the edge of Moonlight Lake, their gazes fixed on the shadowed forest ahead. 166Please respect copyright.PENANAlN4qldeQXl
166Please respect copyright.PENANAGCpTvie7b9
“We need a detailed battle plan,” Lu Feng urged. 166Please respect copyright.PENANAIh3hUu7kXq
166Please respect copyright.PENANA7KDDSOEGOT
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.” 166Please respect copyright.PENANA2ban0V18Xs
166Please respect copyright.PENANAh9QbjYoOKb
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.” 166Please respect copyright.PENANAIYxzwf4FDJ
166Please respect copyright.PENANAdw4WArB9Jx
Arya chuckled softly. “That’s because you didn’t have an elven princess as your guide.” 166Please respect copyright.PENANAHonkg92SLN
166Please respect copyright.PENANA9OOBUUmth9
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.” 166Please respect copyright.PENANAMPesjvKbE4
166Please respect copyright.PENANAHdNAXqqDuS
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. 166Please respect copyright.PENANAjLpwcwwp7O

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. 166Please respect copyright.PENANABOUstX4jqB
166Please respect copyright.PENANA7EtcGTAaTr
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. 166Please respect copyright.PENANA3CJ960YatY
166Please respect copyright.PENANAXAPkm4so1S
Night deepened, tension thickening the lakeside air. Lu Feng, Arya, the Shadowcat, and a small band of hastily gathered warriors waited in silence. 166Please respect copyright.PENANAKPOHqooPL5
166Please respect copyright.PENANAKS8bnNxbkw
The roars grew closer, crashing like tidal waves. 166Please respect copyright.PENANA0ETVpgwp3a
166Please respect copyright.PENANApAxlWSUM9L
“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. 166Please respect copyright.PENANAKJGE8fUqoX
166Please respect copyright.PENANAEO92iAxkfz
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. 166Please respect copyright.PENANAAIIIeWhhwb
166Please respect copyright.PENANADXzvkrMR6P
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. 166Please respect copyright.PENANAwfD55c7ptu
166Please respect copyright.PENANATnAATgAM9o
As victory seemed within reach, a deep tremor shook the earth. Lu Feng and Arya exchanged wary glances. 166Please respect copyright.PENANAlRskiUD6Mm
166Please respect copyright.PENANAGK6RbeHFkV
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. 166Please respect copyright.PENANAvZGJEVkk6G
166Please respect copyright.PENANAJrM838c6uK
“Damn!” Lu Feng hissed. The beast swatted aside obstacles, charging toward him with jaws agape. 166Please respect copyright.PENANAZe8hr5GyU7
166Please respect copyright.PENANAZuOK4WpiVc
Arya leaped in front of him, her staff blazing. “Not today!” she shouted. A solid barrier of moonlight erupted between them. 166Please respect copyright.PENANAcqt7DoWnRm
166Please respect copyright.PENANA5vnDemdRGh
***CRACK!*** 166Please respect copyright.PENANAH9PVEqh6Fe
166Please respect copyright.PENANA4epTKO2bKE
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!” 166Please respect copyright.PENANAFDfMy8vUtZ
166Please respect copyright.PENANAbbhihWQ7TN
Lu Feng steadied her, his gaze locked on the roaring monstrosity. “I know. Be ready—we’ll need to switch tactics.”
