Hearing that their only certain reinforcements were going to be delayed made their situation even more dourer.
They had just had their assess handed to them, and both Gwyneira and Retharin only just barely escaped with their lives thanks to Marcus' help and Asher's intervention.
Currently the best they could do was slow the Doomsday Worm down for a bit, and even that put their lives on the line.
Of course, they did have the Sword Savant here now, but his strength alone would not be enough.
Certainly, at level eighty-four and with an impressive status even for his level, he could be considered in the same league as Retharin and Gwyneira. But that was still far from what they would need to win.
Their enemy was unrelenting and seemed unkillable with regeneration that was greater than anything any of them had ever seen.
It was comparable to if someone had a pump constantly pushing elixirs into their body.
