The encirclement of insects was not merely complex; in the tunnels, a relentless stream of insects advanced toward the Mother Goddess Temple Settlement.
Boom!
Ulysses unleashed a breath of flames, turning a squad of insects to ashes.
After incinerating them, Ulysses landed on Richard's shoulder, took the Magic Stone that Richard had handed him, and instantly drained the Magic Power from it.
Three days had passed since Richard broke out from the Mother Goddess Temple Settlement. After breaching the first encirclement of insects, the team of wizards began to disperse and flee via the complex tunnel system. Over these three days, the team around Richard and Ulysses became increasingly smaller until, half a day ago, they had parted ways with the last two wizards, completely scattering everyone.
Under such intense combat, even Ulysses, as strong as he was, had to rely on Magic Stones to replenish his internal energy.
