Chapter 337 - A Bountiful Harvest
Upon seeing the bloody scene, Laura sucked a cold breath.
"Laura, my daggers!" Annie suddenly shouted; she already charged forward to another beast, from her long and smooth legs, many reversed daggers could be spotted. In addition, the speed she exposed almost reached the speed of 2nd class swordsman.
On the other hand, Laura immediately chanted, making Annie's daggers start to glow," Basic Spell: Fire Topping!" The daggers were instantly covered with fire.
Amidst the beasts' giant bodies, a small red light could be seen. The red light was shining, attracting the beasts' attention with their claws and tooth hurting each other.
Annie, with agile movement, swiftly dodged the beasts' incoming attacks with her slim body slipped between their bodies; the grip on her daggers made veins visible when she successfully stabbed the neck of the beast she targeted.
In an instant, the daggers that were covered with fire melted and entered the beast's body. At the same time, the beast that was attacked letting out a howl and then fell to the ground when one of their friends bite its neck.

Meanwhile, after killing one beast, Annie immediately retreated, jumping, dodging the beasts' feet while brushing off the thick and tall meadows that blocked her vision. Yet suddenly, she could sense a huge object coming at her carrying and making friction between the meadows.
However, the faint light that slipped between the tree leaves, showing a large shadow, covered her vision. It was too late to react, her eyes widened upon seeing one of the beasts' tails swept at her in a flash that caught her off guard.
She unconsciously closed her eyes with her hands crossed between her chest, trying to reduce the tail impact. However, instead of feeling pain and her body sending flying, a cracking sound was heard.
*crash*
"Basic Spell: Barrier!" Laura's voice could be heard from afar; she was sweating while breathing roughly. She was the one who cast a spell for Annie at the moment she was in danger.
Even though her vision was limited due to the tall meadows, Laura spotted Annie's position thanks to Annie's daggers emitted a red light.
On the other hand, seeing a hovering magic circle and some blue shards on the ground, Annie feels touched by her. She immediately wanted to escape the earth below her suddenly raised, merging and restraining her body from moving.
"Stop resisting," When a familiar voice entered her ears, the tension on her body relaxed, and she gave up as what he told her. Her vision was instantly covered with darkness.

Another attack seemed coming at her. Fortunately, the earth that enveloped her body protected her from harm. At the same time, she could feel this ground seemingly moving.
"Good jobs, but we need to hurry," When the earth that covered and blocked her vision turned back into a white ball, she could hear her young master's voice from the front.
"Thank you, young master," The two of them bowed at Desmond, who was currently surrounded by many hovering giant fireballs.
The two of them unconsciously looked behind. Their young lady was still smiling with her entire body frozen in the ice.
...
On the other hand, when Desmond saw the beasts still fighting with each other, he casually remarked," Eventually the beast from beasts race is still an animal even when they have a bigger body and stronger power."
At the same time, the fireballs behind him started to fly one by one, burning the meadows along with the beasts.
"ROAR!"
However, this casual attack only could scratch their skin. They were charging at him back with their bodies still covered in fire.
*howl*
Suddenly, the Husk King howled, jumping out to the sky, and bent its bottom part upwards.
*swoosh*
*swoosh*
*swoosh*
The glowing blue thorns on its back released at once and shot at Desmond and his group in the wide area. The beasts running at him also got hit by those thorns and immediately fell with its body turned into blue looked like it was poisoned.
Custom Spell: Barrier!
Custom Spell: Area Spike!
When facing these attacks, Desmond instantly cast his two spells, making the energy gathered around the group form a faint instant barrier that covered his group.
At the same time, the energy from his body came out, mixed with the surrounding energy and then forming several earth spikes from the grounds.
These spikes were two times larger than he used at the academy battle as the spike instantly killed the beasts with its body hung in mid-air.
*howl*
*howl*
One by one, those beasts died, leaving only the lucky survivors that met their end with Desmond another spell.
"Control Element: Flamethrower!"
Unlike his custom spell, a large magic circle emerged from thin air, hovering in front of Desmond and his group while spouting a sea of fire toward the rest of the beasts.
The beasts and the meadows were left in the ashes, leaving only a scorched land with the Husk King standing with its body injured and its eyes glaring at him.
"ROAR!" In its last attempt, the Husk King roared at him, jumping out to the mid-air and opening its wide mouth with its claws slashing at him.
*bang*
A sudden earth spike suddenly rose from the ground, easily piercing its body that was still hovering in mid-air.
*splash*
A large green splash of blood fell and tainted his barrier. Desmond waited for a moment; only when the green blood slid down to the ground did he deactivate his spell barrier.
[Mass of Unique Energy Found!]
[Mass of Unique Energy Found!]
[Mass of Unique Energy Found!]
In his view, there were many notifications about absorbing the energy. He glanced at the corner and found the blue dots still in the same position from his map.
"Wait here," meanwhile, Laura and Annie were currently looking at their young master, who kept moving between the beasts' corpses while slashing its flesh. He kept the flesh in his pocket, making it tainted with a stinky smell.
...
After several minutes, Desmond finally collected all of the beasts' parts. If not for him saving his energy, he did not want to bother himself to collect.
"Also," Realizing his upper clothes already missing from the time they were escaped, he did not know how did he feel anything. He put Alice back on his back and tied the ice block with tree root to his body.
They then continued moving to Felix and his subordinates' location. Yet, unlike before, they were walking with his magic, riding a wave of earth and also repelling the beasts with his attack.
The auto-gathering function from the system is really useful at this moment, making his energy keep depleted and charged simultaneously.
"Absorb," At the same time, Desmond commanded.
