Meanwhile, Erik, Marcus, Alexia, and Garrett were sprinting through the Frantian camp, their hearts racing. The camp was a labyrinth of tents and erected barricades, teeming with soldiers frantically mobilizing to face the monstrous threat bearing down on them, the Ursus Glacialis. Their arrival was not ignored for long.
A Frantian soldier spotted them, his armor glinting in the sporadic light. "Who are you?" he demanded, instinctively reaching for his weapon. However, he was unable to continue acting. Alexia moved as quickly as a hawk diving for its prey.
An arrow that glowed with mana was knocked from her bow. She let it fly in an instant. The mana arrow pierced the air with a deadly streak of light and found its target. The soldier collapsed to the ground with an arrow lodged in his skull.
