With Han Sen leading, Long Shan's family arrived safely upon the western beach. Many Spiky Turtles covered the beach, but there were no giant ones among them.
Han Sen's assumption was correct; when they put some distance between themselves and the giant Spiky Turtle, the creature no longer targeted them. It was now headed straight for the Dragon Pool.
As the goliath crawled forward, the entire island shook with every step it took.
However, much to the horror of Long Shan's family, more and more giant Spiky Turtles were on their way. About a dozen Spiky Turtles were headed towards the island from various directions. Wave upon wave of Marquise and Earl class turtles also swarmed up the beaches, and they swiftly overran the island.
Han Sen guided Long Shan's family to avoid every Duke class turtle they could see, but there were too many. In the end, they came face-to-face with one.
