The low, thunderous roar rolled across the distance like a muffled storm, vibrating the ground and saturating the air with an oppressive weight that made breathing difficult. 138Please respect copyright.PENANARiSvqobO8m

Arya’s face paled as she gripped her staff, her azure eyes wide with fear. She tugged at Lu Feng’s arm, her voice trembling. “That sound… It’s from the minions of the Abyssal Lord. They’re even fiercer than ogres.” 138Please respect copyright.PENANA4nYC8VziHJ
138Please respect copyright.PENANA9XAGHg11Wy
A flicker of resolve crossed Lu Feng’s brow. “Don’t be afraid. I’m here,” he said quietly, his steady voice washing over her like warm water, dissolving her panic. “No matter what, I’ll protect you—and everyone else in these lands.” 138Please respect copyright.PENANAFkjw4mRdJ9
138Please respect copyright.PENANAzcWAZsbU69
Side by side, they stood at the edge of Moonlight Lake, their gazes fixed on the shadowed forest ahead. 138Please respect copyright.PENANAd5ZfYycRB5
138Please respect copyright.PENANAyR9gJ0kvBp
“We need a detailed battle plan,” Lu Feng urged. 138Please respect copyright.PENANAJzSXZFN4ni
138Please respect copyright.PENANAFLGIjyGsvT
Arya nodded, her voice sharpening with focus. “The terrain here is complex. There are natural traps we can use to lure the enemy in and strike from advantage.” Her tone carried the confidence of familiarity. “I’ve lived in these woods for years. I know every path.” 138Please respect copyright.PENANAQsw5Y5xeNY
138Please respect copyright.PENANAEZ3VcyGBbd
Lu Feng raised an eyebrow, impressed. “You’re incredible. Back when I played *Wanling War Chronicles*, I’d always get lost in terrain like this.” 138Please respect copyright.PENANAHWjQXthyPZ
138Please respect copyright.PENANAPJpHFcaSAp
Arya chuckled softly. “That’s because you didn’t have an elven princess as your guide.” 138Please respect copyright.PENANA6e4Tmjcogw
138Please respect copyright.PENANAwh2TM3kDET
Banter aside, Lu Feng activated his tactical simulator, its screen flashing with rapid data and scenario projections. He muttered as he analyzed, “These abyssal creatures rely on dark energy—enhanced speed and strength, but their weakness is light magic and sacred energy. We can exploit that.” 138Please respect copyright.PENANAPZLwctm33S
138Please respect copyright.PENANAvx0OPUyNdm
Arya’s eyes lit up. “Light magic is my specialty. If we combine my spells with your tactics, we can create a countermeasure.” Together, they swiftly devised a meticulous strategy. 138Please respect copyright.PENANAr7ta7F8hcI

As they prepared, Lu Feng noticed the Shadowcat acting unusually alert near the encroaching enemies. Observing closely, he realized it could sense the dark aura radiating from the creatures. 138Please respect copyright.PENANAf9bDE35T26
138Please respect copyright.PENANAbksrZmRD75
He knelt and stroked the Shadowcat’s fur. “We’re counting on you to warn us,” he whispered. The feline nodded, its intelligent eyes gleaming as it began patrolling the perimeter like a silent sentinel. 138Please respect copyright.PENANApQyoJFRCPv
138Please respect copyright.PENANAyHkhJ3MDf4
Night deepened, tension thickening the lakeside air. Lu Feng, Arya, the Shadowcat, and a small band of hastily gathered warriors waited in silence. 138Please respect copyright.PENANAOP37eRyZ15
138Please respect copyright.PENANAgfUU1Etakk
The roars grew closer, crashing like tidal waves. 138Please respect copyright.PENANAJDnGMpf1jo
138Please respect copyright.PENANA4ydAoMxQ5J
“They’re here,” Lu Feng whispered, raising his staff as a faint glow enveloped him. Beside him, Arya’s staff blazed with warm, radiant power. The Shadowcat bristled on his shoulder. 138Please respect copyright.PENANAjATZY3Tdgh
138Please respect copyright.PENANAOS9CcVBjce
The first wave of abyssal horrors emerged, and the group sprang into action. Using pre-set traps, they funneled the monsters into a killing zone. The ground split open, jagged stone spikes impaling swathes of foes. The Shadowcat’s warnings let them dodge lethal ambushes. 138Please respect copyright.PENANAy7fzLt8961
138Please respect copyright.PENANAe0p84C9tbP
The battle raged. Lu Feng commanded with the precision of a conductor, directing warriors into defensive formations to whittle down the enemy. Arya’s light beams seared through the darkness, eliciting agonized shrieks. The Shadowcat darted across the battlefield, exposing hidden threats. 138Please respect copyright.PENANAKjewZUWEJe
138Please respect copyright.PENANAZkoWDLj7Up
As victory seemed within reach, a deep tremor shook the earth. Lu Feng and Arya exchanged wary glances. 138Please respect copyright.PENANAeaWVIEl0Bw
138Please respect copyright.PENANA6i7Wg4hcLn
The Shadowcat yowled, pointing toward the forest’s heart. A thunderous crash echoed as a three-story-tall monstrosity erupted from the trees, shrouded in black mist. Its glowing green eyes burned with malice, and the stench of sulfur choked the air. 138Please respect copyright.PENANAh6ikVl1LjT
138Please respect copyright.PENANAeiwdwWbIBl
“Damn!” Lu Feng hissed. The beast swatted aside obstacles, charging toward him with jaws agape. 138Please respect copyright.PENANA7qd4UUiRb9
138Please respect copyright.PENANAKLqTUOvWlj
Arya leaped in front of him, her staff blazing. “Not today!” she shouted. A solid barrier of moonlight erupted between them. 138Please respect copyright.PENANAOZq7sk1B9b
138Please respect copyright.PENANAgytJedvqL9
***CRACK!*** 138Please respect copyright.PENANAyvlN7nzqPN
138Please respect copyright.PENANAqqCx3zMIY5
The beast slammed into the barrier, denting it inward. The shield groaned, fissures spiderwebbing across its surface. Arya’s face whitened, blood trickling from her lips. “It’s… too strong! I can’t hold it!” 138Please respect copyright.PENANApuZ9oNCG91
138Please respect copyright.PENANAHkiDbFW8GM
Lu Feng steadied her, his gaze locked on the roaring monstrosity. “I know. Be ready—we’ll need to switch tactics.”
