As more time passed, the Mages became more and more nervous and fearful.

They had over 50 High Mages on their side, and they had all prepared their Spells.

They were all ready to launch a devastating wave of attacks at whoever was attacking them.

Yet, they just couldn't find the opponent!

What were they supposed to attack when there was nothing to attack?!

"Don't panic," the Patriarch told everyone via voice transmission. "This is not a fight to kill the opponent but to survive. In ten minutes, at most, the barrier will deactivate. After that, the Enforcer will arrive very quickly."

The other Mages nodded.

The Patriarch was right.

They only needed to survive for a while, not kill the opponent.

"Everyone gather at my location and be careful while you move," the Patriarch ordered.

The Mages quickly made their way to the Patriarch.

SHING! SHING! SHING!

Yet, several of the Mages still died on their way to the Patriarch.

The Patriarch gritted his teeth. He wanted to do nothing more than just directly jump toward one of his dying people and kill the attacker.

Yet, he had learned by now that he didn't have the ability to do so.

As soon as he arrived, the attacker would have already retreated.

And worst of all, the attacker didn't even leave behind any trace of Mana!

He could have gone upward, downward, left, right, anywhere!

The bright light in the hallway only heightened the fear of the Mages.

There was nowhere to hide.

But they were also afraid of the dark.

They already had a hard time finding the attacker. If everything became dark on top of that, it would only become even more difficult to find them!
