Leon frowned when he and the others found the desert wolf boss. He heard that the evolved version of those creatures was bigger and could use wind and earth magic. However, he didn't hear that the boss had two heads.
"It is a mutant; be careful not to destroy the line of defense," Paul said. " Raise your weapons but only focus on the defense; if we make a mistake, the creature can easily bite the heads of two of us at the same time. This time let's leave the damage in the hand of the archers and the mages."
Leon was still the only mage in the team, but Paul said that to increase the morale of the troops. Even though they also knew that they only had one mage... Anyway, the front line moved forward as a whole and at the same pace. Only a few of them had a shield, but most of them were used to blocking the attacks of far bigger creatures using swords, spears, and axes.
