Chapter 195: Retreat

  In an instant, a dark red door opened o Tres.

  A thick stoepped out from the door.

  As the Greater Earth Elemental stood tall, an overwhelming aura covered half of the battlefield.

  Matthew couldn’t help but look over and saw a 5-meter tall monster stone armor with the words “Greater Earth Elemental” above its head!

  His pupils stricted slightly—Matthew reized the Greater Earth Elemental, having fought one before.

  Though this particur Greater Earth Elemental didn’t seem as powerful, appearing to be in a weakeate...

  It was still a transdent being with a challeing of 18+, which made it a formidable oppo in Matthew’s eyes.

  Earth elementals were different from other creatures—they naturally possessed immense defensive capabilities and top-tier regeive abilities.

  As long as they stood on the ground, even a legendary entity would take siderable time to pletely destroy them.

  Rubbing his throbbing head, Tres met the glowing red eyes of the Greater Earth Elemental and a as if it was the most natural thing in the world:

  "Attack! Kill that dragon!"

  The Greater Earth Elemental, obeying the and, began to slowly walk toward Yaya with heavy steps.

  With each step, its massive body caused the ground to tremble slightly.

  The surrounding soldiers instinctively moved aside, regrouping ures’s orders.

  A prehe of data appeared before Matthew, further crifying the situation.

  Evaluation: A super-strong pung bag!

  "Amazing talents as, but almost no offensive skills."

  "Has this Greater Earth Elemental never fought in its life?"

  "Strong in strength and stitution, ridiculously high health, but low agility and intelligence, and its attack power is ughably low..."

  After reviewing the Greater Earth Elemental’s stats, Matthew suppressed a chuckle and began to carefully pn his move.

  "It’s a good oppo—avoid its direct attacks and use agility and close bat to wear it down!"

  Matthew whispered softly into Yaya’s ear before lightly jumping off her back.

  "Yaa? Got it!"

  Trusting Matthew pletely, Yaya charged forward without hesitation.

  Even though she couldn’t fly, there was no sign of retreat in her.

  The Greater Earth Elemental raised its massive fist and swung it down toward Yaya.

  Though it appeared powerful, to Yaya, the attack seemed slow.

  She gracefully sidestepped, using a fp of her wings to propel herself directly uhe Elemental’s legs.

  With her sharp cws, she tched onto its stone leg and bit down hard.

  The Elemental’s sturdy rock shield was chipped away.

  Caught off guard, the Greater Earth Elemental couldn’t trol its momentum and smmed its heavy fist into the ground, leaving a deep crater.

  Seizing the opportunity, Yaya excitedly climbed onto the Elemental’s back, tearing away ks of stoh her cws ah.

  The clumsy Elemental stretched its hands behind it, trying to grab Yaya, but it was too slow to catch her nimble movements.

  Despite its intimidating appearahe massive Greater Earth Elemental was being overpowered by the much smaller Yaya.

  Watg Tres regrouping his forces, Matthew raised his staff without hesitation.

  A glowing fireball began to form.

  Suddenly, eerie shadows gathered from all dires.

  Just as Matthew released the Fireball Spell, two shadowy bdes swiftly cut through his mana shield.

  Before Matthew could react, they pierced his chest.

  Only then did two shadowy figures materialize beside him.

  Sixth-Tier Spell – Summon Shadow Warriors!

  From a distance, Kaman’s heart surged with joy.

  "Othew dies, the dragon bound to him by a life tract will be gravely injured, if not killed!"

  But before Kaman could act against the agile Yaya...

  The Matthew who had been stabbed suddenly shattered and disappeared without a trace.

  First-Tier Spell – Illusion!

  Immediately, the Fireball Spell that Matthew had cast exploded on the spot.

  The two Shadow Warriors were ripped apart in an instant!

  Boom!

  Hearing the explosion, the smile on Kaman’s face froze as a sudden shock hit him.

  "When did he cast that illusion spell? Where is he now?"

  At that moment, a deadly sense of danger overwhelmed Kaman.

  He turo look behind him, only to see a fiery ball of death flying toward him!

  Kaman’s st thought before his visio dark was:

  "How much does this guy love Fireball Spells?"

  Boom!

  The r fmes tore through the carriage, as Matthew, now hiding in the s, lowered his staff with some frustration:

  "As expected of a high-level mage, his survival skills are impressive!"

  Indeed, Matthew’s feigtack, desigo distrad target the leader, had failed to kill Kaman.

  Sensing faint spatial fluctuations, Matthew couldn’t help but feel a bit disappointed:

  "It’s a shame I ’t learn Fifth-Tier Spells yet. Once I get Dimension Anchor, esg will beuch harder fuys like him!"

  Although Matthew hadn’t killed Kaman, his attack had thrown Tres into a state of panic as he attempted troup his forces.

  Tres didn’t know Kaman had survived, but even if he did, there was no way to tain Matthew anymore.

  tinuing the fight would be suicide!

  Boom! Boom! Boom!

  With 500 elite soldiers crushed and half of them dead, the blood-soaked heavy infantry marched toward Yaya’s location.

  Sighing i, Tres burhe sight of these soldiers and their ons into his memory.

  Ultimately, he didn’t fight to the death—he souhe horn of retreat!X
