The Thunderfly King and its subordinates heard the voices of the students and instantly turned their attention toward the newcomers. With a deafening buzz, the Thunderflies swarmed towards the entrance, leaving the Luminous Root with about a hundred of them.
Adrian watched as their king instantly appeared beside the students and launched a barrage of electric attacks, causing chaos among the group. Students scrambled to defend themselves, some using magic while others wielded weapons against the onslaught of Thunderflies.
'It seems to be focusing on them...'
"Now's our chance," Adrian said after a few moments, his voice low as he motioned for the group to move toward the Luminous Root.
With Ardel leading the way, they dashed towards the clearing where the plant stood, keeping a watchful eye on the Thunderfly King and its minions.
