Jared’s voice sounded heavenly when Rosetta heard it. When she saw Jared, she shouted in excitement, “Help me, Mr. Chance!”
Jared kept the Demon Flogger aside and whipped out his Dragonslayer Sword. He then swung the sword forcefully at the shield, thinking he could break it.
Boom!
Those transparent barriers were surprisingly still there. Jared’s Dragonslayer Sword had cut through the shield, but the shield didn’t suffer any damage.
“Huh? That’s weird…” Jared’s curiosity was piqued. How did the demon beasts come up with such a thing?
Seeing that sheer power couldn’t break the shield, Jared ignited a ball of flame in his palm and tried to use demonic fire to break the shield. Since I can’t break it with sheer power, let me try burning it down!
To his disappointment, not even demonic fire could damage the shield. Jared panicked when he couldn’t break the shield because the demon beasts were closing in on them.
He felt helpless, and in the next second, the draconic essence on his chest started to glimmer. Afterward, rays of golden light spread out all over the place.
A torrent of the Power of Dragons shot toward the shield.
The moment the Power of Dragons reached the shield, the shield vanished.
At the same time, the fast-approaching demon beasts, with terror in their eyes, gradually halted in their tracks.
Rosetta heaved a sigh of relief when she saw that. While relying on the Power of Dragons to suppress the demon beasts, Jared slowly led Rosetta backward to pull away from the demon beasts.
However, the demon beasts would take a step toward them every time they took a step backward. When Jared stopped, the demon beasts would also do the same.
This was repeated many times, and Jared was utterly baffled.
“Have these demon beasts gone mad? Why won’t they let us go?” Rosetta grumbled.
“This is indeed very odd. Why are these demon beasts after us? Did you provoke them?” Jared asked in confusion.
“I didn’t! I simply picked up a rock, and they just started chasing after me,” Rosetta replied.
“A rock?” Only then did Jared notice a rock in Rosetta’s arms.
Jared took the rock from Rosetta and saw the weird ripples on it. When he injected a thread of his spiritual sense into it, he was stunned. This isn’t a rock! This is an egg! No wonder those demon beasts chased after Rosetta. This must be their egg! It’s only natural for them to protect their egg.
“This isn’t a rock. This is an egg,” Jared uttered in a helpless tone.
Rosetta felt embarrassed when she heard that. “I saw the ripples on it and thought it had to be a magical item. That was why I took it. I had no idea…”
Holding the egg in his hand, Jared looked at the leader of the demon beasts and said, “We’re so sorry. We didn’t mean to steal your beast egg. This is just a misunderstanding. I’m giving it back to you now.”
Those demon beasts possessed spiritual intelligence, so they understood Jared’s words.
Most importantly, they also feared him because of the Power of Dragons he possessed.
If not for the Power of Dragons, the demon beasts would have ignored Jared’s words, howled at him, and attacked him.
The demon beasts nodded in response. Jared placed the beast egg on the ground and pulled Rosetta backward.
Seeing that, the leader of the demon beasts opened its mouth and kept the beast egg in its mouth.
After that, it looked at Jared and Rosetta. “You guys came in to look for treasures, right? Follow me…”
With that, the leader of the demon beasts turned around and left. The rest of the demon beasts followed suit.
Intrigued, Jared and Rosetta exchanged glances before they followed the demon beasts from behind.
