Soon Eli felt the carriage slow down to a stop.

Eli did not dare to lift the curtain up at the moment for she already knew that the enemy was already aware of her vigilance.

Most probably the enemy also knew that along the journey, she had already managed to call in some reinforcements.

She waited for the enemy's next move.

'Baobao, standby…' She commanded.

Remaining calmly seated in the ordinary-looking carriage, Eli's enhanced hearing was able to figure out that the supposed chauffeur was now mounting down the front of the carriage.

Every second felt suffocating as she was uncertain what the culprit would do once he got off the carriage.

Would he destroy the carriage?

Would he open it like a typical criminal and attack her at sight?

Or would he act like a psycho and lure her to get off the carriage and let her guard down?

"Master! Multiple entities surrounded the carriage! They are fast approaching!" Baobao's voice rang in Eli's mind.

Only then did Eli immediately take out a short sword and used Baobao's strong force to go out of the carriage.

Bang!

After the rubble and dust subsided, Eli finally saw the situation outside.

In the middle of the forest in the outskirts, Eli was surrounded by eerie-looking beasts that did not resemble a proper animal, not even a wolf.

They were ferocious-looking four-legged beasts with salivating fangs and turbid gray eyes. They were standing around Eli, surrounding her so that she could not escape.

'They seem to have been under control by someone…' Eli thought.

The creatures were different from the hell wolves they have encountered before. These beasts looked like an upgraded and more terrifying version of it.

For starters, their sizes were similar to Baobao if he stood upright!

"Baobao! Fairies!" Eli did not hesitate to summon the giant Panda and her contracted earth fairies.

That was because even if she had divine powers and an open path, the public knew her as a summoner. Surely, it will bring her more harm to reveal her powers this time.

As soon as they were summoned, the little fairies appeared from the trees surrounding the area. They were like a swarm of tiny moths around since their sparkle was overpowered by the daylight.

Baobao immediately positioned himself behind Eli and immediately engaged in the fight.

As soon as the beasts saw Baobao out, they immediately attacked the two.

"Weeee!" The fairies sang in chorus.

Instantly several thorny vines grew from the ground. The trees seemed to also come to life and they immediately sprouted branches to hinder the beasts from attacking Eli and Baobao altogether.

These earth fairies were contracted by Eli to originally help her in rearing the cure potion herb farm. Nonetheless, it was a relief that Eli was able to find a way to also let them help in combat.

Thanks to them Baobao and Eli were able to take care of the beasts one at a time.

Taking one of the beasts was already a tedious task for Baobao and Eli, that was because the creatures were indeed three times more powerful than the hell wolves.

Moreover, Eli's fighting style does not do well with bigger opponents like them. Armed with just a short sword, Eli might have to unleash her casting and devourer powers out in the open to take out one beast alone.

And so the strategy of the two immediately adjusted. Eli acted as the decoy while Baobao used his power and size to deal the damage.

Using the shadow steps she mastered under the guidance of the Crimson Blade, Eli rushed toward the beast and immediately rushed under its massive body at an awkward angle.

As soon as she arrived under the belly of the beast, she swung her short sword and struck one of the beast's feet!

Roarrrr!!!! The beast cried in agony while his head fastly moved to bite Eli with her fangs.

"Huhhhp!" Eli used her shadow steps once again to avoid the beast's fangs and to get out of Baobao's attacking range.

Boom!

Baobao's gigantic body fell over the body of the distracted beast, his weight immediately pinned down the enemy.

The next moment, Baobao brandished his razor-sharp claws and targeted the neck of the beast.

Shhhheeeee!

Dark purple blood gushed out of the beast's neck and a deep wound almost claimed his life.

Eli and Baobao's eyes darkened. The damage was not deep enough to kill the beast instantly!

Baobao's sharp claws only managed to slice a third of its neck.

"Sorry master…" Baobao's eyes did not leave the enemy, but his eyes were shaken in anxiousness as he knew that the first exchange determine the level of difficulty for Eli to survive at the moment.

"Don't think of anything else. Let's hold on until Leon and the rest arrive." Eli answered Baobao through mind link.

Grrrr!!! Roaaaaar!!!

The beasts that were stuck by the vines and the tree branches became more agitated as they saw that Eli and Baobao almost managed to kill one of their comrades.

They seemed to have been triggered by the revolting smell of the dark purple blood and so they began acting crazier.

They struggled to get out of the deep vine field but the thorns stuck deeper into their flesh making them growl in pain.

And while they were in pain, the more dark purple blood gushed out and filled the air with its stench, making Eli and Baobao, as devourers, almost vomit their guts out.

It was so for Baobao, whose sense of smell was greater than any tracking knight alive. "Master, the smell is too much… I feel nauseous."

"Hang in there Baobao!" Eli cried out in alarm as she saw Baobao's furry body stagger.

At the same time, the height of the beast's aggressiveness reached its peak.

Suddenly, from their mouths came forth balls of fire!

"What!" Eli immediately summoned back Baobao and the fairies for she knew the cumulative damage of these attacks would have her contracted animals.

"How could they display such abilities?!" Eli was bewildered while she was trying her best to run away from the attack range of the fire.

The next moment was the sight of Eli trying to dodge her way to safety from the group fire attack of the beasts.

The vines that were hindering them were also slowly burned, more and more beasts were now free to attack her at any time.

"This is bad!" Eli, for the first time, experienced a true and great sense of danger. For someone who already went through death once, she was shocked.

Only now did she finally understand the fear and agony of struggling to live in face of death.

Little did she know hiding behind the shadows of the dense forest, a pair of cruel amethyst eyes were staring at her gloatingly.

"Die fast…" The voice mumbled.

If Eli was a little bit nearer, she would immediately think that the voice sounded familiar.

Leon was now frantically searching beyond the outskirts of the city.

It was already a long while when he got Eli's last update.

But he was still unable to determine her location.

"How could this be?" Leon went into a panic.

It should not have been this hard for him to search for Eli's whereabouts because there are only a few places where the enemy could take her after her last location update.

Beyond the Moze Gate was a dense forest and nothing more.

However, even after riding a flying beast to look at the expanse of the forest, he was not able to see any signs of commotion or distress around.

It was eerily silent.

"Could it be a barrier?" Leon thought with great unease.

He stepped out of the bird's back and let his body free fall to the forest down below.

While he was doing it he covered his body with a thick layer of golden mana, protecting him from the impact on the ground.

But even before he was able to reach the trees, his body met a huge force that fought aggressively with his mana shield.

Leon's face darkened, and the enemy came prepared.

"It can't be breached with brute force…" He frowned while his heart turned cold.

The eye of the barrier had to be located before he could enter the premises, but that also meant that he would not be able to meet with Eli in time.

Even so his body was already moving.

Using a large amount of his mana, he entered the spatial void.

"Master!" The spatial king greeted him immediately.

"Can you go past this barrier and take me to Eli? I have no time to search for the eye and break it." Leon decisively asked.

"Easy peasy!!! But… master you must let me meet my playmate three days ahead of time!" The spatial king's childish voice demanded.

"Deal." Leon did not hesitate and accepted the Spatial King's request to meet Little Han earlier than planned.

"If we do not save Little Han's mommy, he might even refuse to see you." He said.

"Oh! Then go quickly and save the madam master!!!" The spatial king's tone changed, simultaneously a portal appeared behind Leon.

Without warning, the spatial king pushed Leon to the portal while saying, "Make sure to save madam, or my playmate will cry!"
