Inside the Defense Formation, the Sutherland Bloodline Wizards, led by Lenora, panted heavily as they lowered their hands, which had been pressed against the light barrier of the Defense Formation.
Just a few seconds ago, they had consumed well over half of their body's magic energy.
Huff~ Puff~
Lenora looked toward the Glory starship in the distance with a mixture of shock and suspicion.
"Damn it! There must be something strange about this starship!"
A young female Sutherland Bloodline Wizard standing on her left said with a pale face, "Elder Lenora, we underestimated the enemy's strength. Should we... should we retreat?!"
"Hmm?!" Lenora instantly turned her head and glared at her.
"Sabrina, do you want to be a deserter?!"
Sabrina was so frightened that she hurriedly lowered her head and said repeatedly, "No, no, no! This is just a small suggestion. Whatever you decide to do, Elder Lenora, I will follow!"
"Humph~" Lenora snorted coldly and did not pursue the matter further.
She lowered her voice to warn the other woman, "Sabrina, if I hear you say this kind of morale-damaging talk again, I will peel off your skin with my own hands!"
Sabrina, keeping her head down, could not help but shiver, frightened into hastily begging for mercy, "I won't do it anymore, I'll never dare to do it again!"
She had heard secret rumors circulating privately within the clan, knowing that their youngest elder was deeply fond of stripping the skin from young and beautiful girls.
She desperately did not want to become that unlucky victim whose skin was peeled!
After threatening the heedless junior of her clan, Lenora turned to look into the distance at the Glory starship, a faint idea of retreat beginning to take shape in her heart.
