Guard Settlement
Despite the broad daylight, Michael and the others didn't hesitate to attack the guard settlement. On the contrary, the broad daylight created various openings.
The Golden Stinger Wasp's golden sheen was harder to make out as it flew high above the settlement's walls to move back and forth, switching places with the Kitsun Awakened she stung every now and then.
The Golden Stinger Wasp could swap places with a total of three Kitsun Awakened before their disappearance was noticed. But at that point, Sun Demos and the Monkey troupe had already made their move. They attacked the settlement from north, and distracted the guards, who moved rapidly to up their defense and deflect the attacking monsters.
Meanwhile, Michael, Icarus and the others ascended into the air once again. Ignoring the potential dangers, Icarus and his mate began to circle above the settlement at an altitude of more than 200 meters with everyone on their backs.
