章 261: 261

Erik's resolve hardened, his grip tightening on his spear. "I will not let that happen," he declared, his voice steady despite the exhaustion creeping into his limbs. He drew upon the last reserves of his strength, channeling the power of the enchanted forest into his spear.

Instead of a simple beam, Erik crafted a complex construct of light—a luminous green dragon, its scales shimmering with radiant energy. The dragon coiled around Erik with its wings spread out, its eyes glowing fiercely. With a roar, the dragon lunged at Silas, its jaws snapping with immense power.

Silas recoiled, raising his hand to summon a shield of darkness. The dragon's jaws clamped down on the shield, its radiant teeth gnawing through the dark energy. Erik pressed the attack, his spear striking in tandem with the dragon's bites. Each hit from the spear and dragon chipped away at Silas's defenses.
