The Jagged-Paw Green Demons had outstanding jumping ability. They dashed out of the water and climbed along the narrow balconies of the buildings. These balconies were meant to be used by the Magicians as landing spots, yet they were now occupied by the ferocious creatures with jagged paws. The flicker in their gray eyes was full of bloodlust!
”Formation!” ordered Nanyu when she saw the sea monsters advancing.
The team immediately split up across the buildings while maintaining the distance between them, giving them sufficient space for the fights.
The length of the street was around five hundred meters, and the buildings on the same row were less than thirty meters apart. The distance to the opposite row was around forty meters. Currently, the alleyways and the streets were all flooded. The water was around eight meters high, and it seemed to be rising still.
The Jagged-Paw Green Demon were amphibians. They could easily climb up the buildings to fight the Magicians!
”Jagged-Paw Green Demon, experts at close-combat, likes to sever the limbs of their target, not poisonous, but be careful of the urchin-like spikes on their heads, it has a paralyzing effect. The spikes will immobilize the target they hit...” Jiang Yu told everyone what he knew about the Jagged-Paw Green Demon as quickly as he could.
”Any weaknesses?” Ai Jiangtu looked around him and took note of the number of Jagged-Paw Green Demons climbing onto the building.
”No.”
”What magic can they cast?”
”Running on water, spitting water as projectiles, nothing special,” said Jiang Yu.
Nanyu closed her eyes, as if she was paying attention to the sounds around her.
Around three seconds later, Nanyu opened her eyes and said to Ai Jiangtu, ”There are thirty-seven of them climbing up the buildings. I can't tell how many are in the water still.”
”Stay here and look after Nan Rongni, and stay on alert for the White Sobbing Demons. Let the team know if you detect their presence, I'm placing you in charge of commanding the team,” Ai Jiangtu told her.
Nanyu nodded.
”So you're a Sound Magician,” murmured Zhao Manyan in surprise.
Since the Sound Element was the rarest among the secondary Elements, most people were unfamiliar with it. However, Zhao Manyan was still knowledgeable enough to know the special capabilities that a Sound Magician would have.
Every Magician had a sensing ability, which basically involved unleashing their will to detect movement within a few dozen meters, perhaps up to a hundred meters away. A strong cultivation would lead to a stronger motion sense.
However, in a Sound Magician's eyes, the so-called sensing ability of every other Magician was good for nothing.
Every movement would involve sound, and whenever Sound Magicians listened closely, they would be able to capture every movement nearby.
It was said that even Shadow Magicians were unable to escape a Sound Magician's hearing. If Nan Rongni had not voluntarily jumped into the White Sobbing Demon's trap because of its bait, the White Sobbing Demon would have had no chance of ambushing the team while Nanyu was around!
”Watch your six!” advised Nanyu, without answering Zhao Manyan's question.
