Chapter 474 The Power Of A Water Mage
"Alright, for some reason it looks like they\'ve selected us as their targets," Marcus said, setting up a station by the window. He held his gun out and knelt, gaining more stability.
"Everyone assume positions. Tanya and I will attack them from the windows. If they come in through the door or any other opening, both Ponyo and Shing will fight them. As for all of the rest of you that can fight, you will have to protect yourselves if they come in!"
The other wanderers heard these words and prepared themselves. Although Marcus wasn\'t their leader, his demeanor, his orders, and his confidence made them believe that his orders were the best chance they had at survival.
"Barlan, you know what you need to do. You\'re our last line, so be careful… maybe you should try to work out of sight. In fact, maybe you should try to find the other one and see what they are doing," Marcus ordered.
Seeing how Marcus was quite calm about everything, Barlan decided to head out. He moved toward the back, and when he reached the area where the dyeing equipment was placed, he looked up.
"I think it will be best if you guys move from here," Barlan suggested. "You never know what might fall or come from above."
He moved his hands slightly, causing part of the water in the dye to bubble up and explode. A small scream came from the group nearby. They cowered and started to shiver but soon saw that there was nothing there. On top of that, the man that was talking to them was no longer there.
Everyone had set up their positions in the shops, and the beasts started to charge forward. Marcus carefully aimed along with Tanya, and the two of them started to fire away.
Marcus was accurate with his hits, but the gun needed at least three bullets to take down one of the beasts. Its head would fall and skid across the floor, but right after that, another beast would jump up in the air.
Tanya pulled the trigger, blasting the creature in a single shot, and started to quickly reload her weapon, while Marcus did the same. His weapon was quicker to reload, and he started firing again, but the sheer number of beasts that had entered the place was too much for them.
Marcus quickly took cover behind the door, and the beasts charged right in. After Ponyo thrust his sword and stabbed one right in the center, when he pulled it out, he quickly moved to the side to avoid the juices from the beast from hitting him.
Right after, many more beasts started to flood into the area, and now all everyone could do was try and fight as many of them as possible inside the shop. The warriors had resorted to attacking beasts inside the place.
"What is going on? Why are so many beasts coming over here? Are they being attracted to the scent of their own dead, or is it something else?" Marcus was getting a little worried about the situation.
Because if the Clan couldn\'t deal with this in time, then what could they do to get out of this as well?
On the rooftop, Barlan had arrived. He had used the water to cause a distraction and then flew himself up to the top so no one could see. Now he could get a view from the street below.
"There\'s the sound of fighting going on all over the city," Barlan observed. "The Clans are in full force fighting back, but many of the beasts are gathering in this area. It looks like we\'re going to need some help from up here."
Moving to the edge of the rooftop, Barlan lifted his hands, and large balls of water started to appear. He then threw them onto the ground, crashing into the beasts. At certain speeds, water had great strength and was heavy, so it would be like one was being hit with the force of concrete.
Lifting up the large ball of water, Barlan then swung his arms down, and the water slammed on more of the beasts, defeating them before they would even enter.
"The path of water!" Barlan shouted, and a swirl of water came out from his hands, sweeping up the beasts and taking them from their legs up, and then lifting the beasts in the air.
Waves of water continued to lift the beasts into the air, dropping them to the ground.
"Those inside can deal with them, and I will make it as easy as possible for them," Barlan thought, but as he continued to use spell after spell, he was starting to weaken. His mana was running low due to the sheer amount he was going against.
"I\'m getting tired… but more beasts keep coming… I need to do something. At this rate, I won\'t even have the strength to find Raze."
Thinking about the other mage, a thought had popped into his head. In his inner pocket, he had three pills.
"He said that these things would work on mages, right? If I used them now, how much would they help me?"
Seeing more beasts coming from the left and right of the street, he thought that it couldn\'t hurt to at least test the pills out. He opened his mouth wide and gulped all three of them in one go.
It didn\'t take long for them to take effect as his body broke them down, and energy was rising inside of him.
"What is this? All of my mana is returning, and it feels like I\'ve taken a few buff potions as well!" Barlan was swirling more water in his hand. "That mage, how did he get his hands on such things!"
