Coco stood a few meters away, looking over the collapsed building. His purple aura glowed threateningly around his metal armor, excluding a quiet strength in the midst of destruction surrounding him. Once alive with clashing warriors, the battlefield was now filled with chaos.
Just moments ago, it had appeared that the Rangers and Rogues could overwhelm Coco by sheer numbers. However, his clever tactic had turned their advantage into a death trap. Now, nearly two-thirds of their forces were buried beneath the debris, trapped under shattered glass, twisted steel, and mountains of concrete.
Panic set in quickly. The survivors of the collapsed building ran to the wreckage, frantically trying to rescue their comrades in trouble. The Rangers and Rogues used their armor-enhanced strength to lift heavy steel beams to clear away stone slabs. Yet, for every individual they freed, another wail of pain echoed beneath the debris.
