With Annie unleashing her might, the road ahead was swept clear, and the entire party rapidly advanced toward the Broodmother.
Annie kept flying above the party, holding the high ground. Whenever monsters closed in, she immediately unleashed her full firepower, clearing the area with her powerful spells.
Under these circumstances, the party soon reached the depths of the Withered Stone Wilderness.
"Lord Donald, that cavern ahead is where the Broodmother is!"
At this point, they could faintly make out an enormous pit in the distance ahead. That was where the Broodmother was.
At first, it had only been a small hole in the ground, but after the Broodmother awoke, it sent monsters to extensively reshape it, turning it into what it was now.
Although they were now close enough to see the Broodmother's location with the naked eye.
This last stretch of road would not be so easy to cross.
By now, large numbers of high-tier monsters had arrived at the Broodmother's call.
Most of the Gnolls were wounded.
Even Annie, though she had suffered little harm, had consumed more than half her magic power with her earlier wide-area attacks.
One could say that the operation was only now beginning to get intense.
Dense swarms of grotesquely shaped monsters rushed toward Dunn's party from every direction.
Their more ferocious appearances made it clear that these monsters were considerably stronger.
Not only that, but many monsters were also flying toward them through the sky. Their target was clear: they were coming for Annie.
Dunn did not even need to sense them with Observation Haki to know that there had to be quite a few high-tier monsters among them.
Everyone's expression grew grave at the sight.
With so many flying monsters keeping her occupied, Annie would certainly have no strength to spare
