Kapitel 144: Chapter 144 - Counter [3]

The ice wall shattered as the creature's claws tore through, its momentum unbroken.

Despite Amelia's quick action, the attack still reached Bronn.

In the split second before impact, Bronn twisted his body, dodging a fatal blow, but the creature's limb slashed across his shoulder, sending him flying across the chamber.

His large frame slammed into the stone wall with a heavy thud, leaving a crater behind.

"This thing…" Amelia muttered, her brow furrowing as she watched Bronn pull himself out of the debris.

She couldn't believe what had just happened. Although the ice wall had been thrown up quickly, it should have been strong enough to stop even a peak Astral Bloom warrior's attack.

Yet the creature had easily broken through it and still managed to strike Bronn.

Bronn slowly stood, rolling his injured shoulder as blood dripped from the deep cut.

He glanced at the wound and grinned, excitement flickering in his eyes.
