A huge light shield appeared above the Ogre Chain's team, completely enveloping the evolvers within.
Many sorceresses of the Ogre Chain raised their hands, releasing continuous energy beams from above to provide power for the light shield.
Although the shield was large, it looked very 'solid'; it lacked shimmering radiance but had a simple, heavy feeling.
It was hard to imagine that a light shield could give off such a sensation.
While it covered the heads of the ogres, its area was considerable, but compared to the Guardian Beast, it seemed very insignificant.
The heaviness was the feeling of the evolvers when looking at the light shield itself, but once compared to the massive opponent, it felt as thin as a piece of paper.
The slight confidence that had formed due to the light shield was instantly shattered, and many Cloud Summit People let out soft sighs.
The third-tier Guardian Beast, which did not lower its difficulty, was simply too strong.
They did not hear the boss's quiet muttering to himself.
Those long black objects slammed into the light shield.
Even though there was no sound feedback from the barrier, everyone could clearly feel the sound waves resonating around the Bright Star.
Like the tolling of a bell, those black objects struck the shield and were initially halted, but before the evolvers could cheer in joy, they were bounced back and then crashed into it again.
This method of attacking again after leaving the main body was enough to make people's scalps tingle.
After the first wave of attack, some evolvers supporting the light shield slumped to the ground, and after pouring some potions into their mouths, they began to recover. Their current state meant they could do nothing but recover as quickly as possible.
The second wave of attacks quickly arrived, even more ferocious than the first.
This time, the light shield shattered!
Many watching evolvers gasped in shock.
There was no way around it; whether they were hit by those long black objects or other attacks from the Guardian Beast, it essentially marked the demise of this human team, a death without a complete corpse.
At that moment, every human felt their fragility in the face of the mutated life forms.
"Perhaps only those wearing gold-tier or above defense gear can survive," thought many Cloud Summit warriors.
Using equipment to measure outcomes had become a habit for them.
However, surprising and unbelievable events occurred at that moment.
The sorceresses of the Ogre Chain, who had not acted under the protection of the light shield, raised their hands or their staffs at the instant the shield shattered.
A terrifying surge of energy gathered in an instant, forming a blue beast behind the shield.
Similarly, compared to the Guardian Beast, it was small but still sufficient to cover the entire team. Once this blue energy beast appeared, it roared silently and charged towards the attack, crashing into those long black objects.
Those things, which had been so fierce just moments ago against the light shield, turned into nothingness upon encountering the energy beast, as if they had never existed.
Many people were confused about the situation. Only a few top experts like Ye Zhongming and jannadrah could see clearly.
Spells were widely used in the apocalypse, and many people, including those at the top of the rankings, liked to have one or several spells, such as fireball technique, Wind Blade, and lightning spells, which were the most popular.
However, very few had seen combination magic because even the most common fireball skill scrolls were not cheap; gathering enough of them along with a combination book or a team book would cost a fortune.
Previously, Ye Zhongming had never considered this.
Even the King of Cloud Summit felt the same, let alone others, so they were all puzzled when they saw the disappearance of the long black objects.
All they saw was the blue energy beast pouncing towards the Guardian Beast.
The airflow jetting from the Guardian Beast's feet increased as its body swiftly retreated, while over ten arms extended from its sides, each spinning like a cone and stabbing downwards.
