"Wait. Let me get this straight. We didn't kill the eight Rotten Thorn Men?" Mordechai clarified with widened eyes.
"That's right. If we had really destroyed them, then the lights containing the death power wouldn't have shown up. Plus, if we didn't kill them, then we should not have heard their awful growls. As far as I know, we only destroyed their bodies, but not their entire beings.
They could easily rebuild their bodies using the materials that are scattered around the place.
Therefore, it won't take them long before they reappear," Ricky responded.
"So, do you think that the lights we saw are the core part of the Rotten Thorn Men? In that case, then we need to destroy these lights so we can take them down and they will not regenerate anymore," Hayes said as he looked at Ricky with eyes full of hope.
"I tried to attack the lights, but unfortunately, they remained unscathed," Mordechai suddenly chimed in.
"Or maybe, your power isn't just enough to cause damage to them. Once we break those Rotten Thorn Men' bodies, we should join forces to attack the light balls. In that way, I believe that we can destroy them once and for all," Ashley heavily suggested.
Meanwhile, ferocious roars echoed again. After rebuilding their bodies from the scraps of flesh and thorny plants from the area, the Rotten Thorn Men immediately dashed towards Ricky and attacked the four of them once more.

"Is there some power in the blood-colored light that scares them?" Ricky asked in a low voice as he narrowed his eyes at the blood-colored light.
"Ricky, can you please try to find a way to help us get out of here? If we stay here for too long, a lot of blood-colored light would invade our bodies. As you can already feel, we don't have much time. The blood-colored light is full of the death power," Hayes pleaded to Ricky.
Without a doubt, Mordechai and Ashley also fixed their eyes on Ricky as if they were asking for the same favor, too. After all, the three of them treated him like a leader, and they thought that with Ricky's expertise, he could somehow find a way on how to help them get through this.
"Everybody, please rest up. Before we do anything else, I need to study the blood-colored light. There must be some power in the light that frightens the Rotten Thorn Men," Ricky said severely.
Upon finishing his words, he absorbed some of the blood-colored light and put it in the Devourer Zone for further study.
Not long after, he closed his eyes and began to check and assess the powers in the light.
"Hey, can you help us? Do you know something about the Rotten Thorn Men that we don't know?" Ricky asked the Dragon Intent Grass telepathically.
