This was indeed effective for Lisa. She could still manipulate the sand to force back the first few elites of the Bloody Hand Gang, but when five or six more came later, Lisa was overwhelmed and started panting.
But...
'Squish! Squish! Squish! Squish!'
There was a game called popping bubbles.
It could roughly describe Shermen's current battle situation.
Those murderous members of the Bloody Hand Gang, with vicious smiles on their faces, hadn't even approached within five meters of Shermen before their bodies were pierced one by one by shadow thorns. It couldn't be simpler.
This caused the later members of the Bloody Hand Gang to be stunned.
No one had ever seen such a bizarre "spell".
But what made them relieved was that Shermen didn't seem to actively attack them. As long as they didn't attack or approach him and Lisa, Shermen remained motionless and silent.
Seeing that many elite members of the Bloody Hand Gang were having thoughts of retreating, Vice-Leader Brien became anxious. He was very smart and definitely wouldn't go up himself. He loudly shouted at the other retreating members:
"Don't be afraid! All of you fucking charge forward! Think carefully! If that mage really had such great abilities, she would have come to kill us long ago. Why would she still be defending there? What is she waiting for!?"
Upon hearing the vice-leader's words...
Many members of the Bloody Hand Gang became restless again.
Yeah...
If she was really a powerful one, why would she still be defending?
And had to wait for us to attack before retaliating?
There must be a problem in between!
But to be on the safe side, they would wait a little longer. In their view, Shermen wasn't running away or actively attacking anyway. In that time, it would be even better for them to call in more of their main force.
Even with the stalemate, more and more members of the Bloody Hand Gang quickly filled in, completely surrounding Shermen and Lisa, leaving no gaps.
The vice-leader in the distance breathed a sigh of relief at this point and looked at Shermen inside the encirclement with an expression as if looking at an idiot.
Still waiting there?
That destructive, tearing lightning was like a flashing night light, like the rapidly flashing ceiling light in a dark old building corridor at night in a horror movie, step by step from far to near.
"What... what the hell!?"
If it were people from other regions, they might not have made such a fuss.
But the Syndicate was different.
This was a barren desert, a sand sea!
The Syndicate people were very sure that there was no storm or thunder and lightning here at all.
Finally.
When the thunder and lightning finally reached the sky above the people on the ground, the Bloody Hand Gang members, feeling strange and fearful, looked up and finally saw clearly.
Under the lightning in the night sky overhead, they saw a huge, two-headed, tailless bird with another head, a three-headed blue-purple giant bird that flashed by.
The sky full of thunderclouds and lightning seemed to be summoned by the tail head of this monster.
Wait. Did the other two heads also have some special abilities?
The Bloody Hand Gang members suddenly had this thought in their minds for some reason.
And as a reward for the correct answer.
In the sky, the blue-purple giant bird that covered the sky flashed a blue and a red light from its two heads.
After a brief gathering and charging...
Boooooooooom!
A bone-chilling, extremely cold magical breath swept over the Bloody Hand Gang members below.
And immediately after.
That blazing red fireball, carrying rolling heat waves, like a falling sun, rapidly enlarged in the eyes of the vice-leader of the Bloody Hand Gang, who had his mouth wide open in horror.
At this moment.
Especially when he saw the cold magical breath and the falling sun fireball seemingly grow eyes, avoiding Ghost Town and even avoiding Shermen and Lisa who were very close to them.
At this moment, Brien seemed to finally understand what that female mage, Shermen, was waiting for.
