The next moment—
Clank!
Spikes erupted outward and chains formed.
Metal restraints wrapped around their limbs, torsos, necks, and claws.
The five Pishachas were instantly bound.
One after another, they crashed violently onto the ground.
"SKREEEEEE!"
The monsters struggled frantically.
Dark energy erupted from their claws as they attempted to tear through the restraints.
Cracks immediately appeared across the metal.
Song Meilin's combat experience instantly allowed her to judge the situation.
Those restraints wouldn't hold them for long.
A few seconds at most.
Yet before she could understand who had intervened, a strange heat brushed against her face.
Song Meilin froze.
Heat?
In the middle of the Frostspine Mountains?
The surrounding snow had already begun melting. The temperature was rising at a terrifying speed.
Her instincts suddenly warned her of danger.
Not from the Pishachas, but from behind.
Song Meilin turned around.
Then, her eyes widened.
