Ian's heart jolted, but he didn't respond.
The moment the storm of Bone Spikes descended, the stone-like patterns on his skin flared, and three layers of Shields instantly compressed and stacked together.
They condensed before him into an immensely thick, diamond-shaped greatshield, its edges swirling with dark red Spirit Devourer patterns.
"You think you can stop this?" the black-robed man on the left sneered.
The storm of Bone Spikes accelerated, each spike wrapped in a wailing Resentful Spirit, specifically designed to pierce Energy defenses.
But the moment the Bone Spikes struck the diamond-shaped greatshield...
The dark red patterns swirled madly as the [Spirit Devourer] trait activated at full capacity.
Almost at the same time, Ian moved like a flash of lightning, surging forward instead of retreating.
He slammed his left foot into the ground, unleashing an explosive burst of physical power that sent a shockwave ripping through the fungal carpet.
