The Medallion novel Chapter 1011

Alexander, who was standing next to Geoffrey, immediately turned to him with an alarmed expression. "Your Royal Highness, please wait for a moment," he said pleadingly.

"No! If we can't get the treasure, it will be more disadvantageous for us," Geoffrey answered at once. "We have to control this guardian beast, as Alyssa and the others have done. Only then can we create opportunities to break the enchanted barrier. Anyway, in terms of overall strength, we are still slightly stronger..." He knew that it would be challenging to deal with the Ice Phoenix Eagle even with their strength. If they didn't work together, they would never get close enough to the enchanted barrier, let alone damage it. He was confident in the skills of his men, so he wasn't afraid that they would be outshone. He immediately turned to Woods and said, "Woods, let us fight together."

Hearing this, Woods nodded immediately.

Thus, the two groups united as one. Their new team was exceptional, considering that they had Alexander and Elder Brook, who were both spirit manipulators at the Divine Stage. Together, they swarmed up and fought with the Ice Phoenix Eagle.

The other three princes saw that Geoffrey and Woods were working together, which gave them a bit of hope. They looked at each other uncertainly, thinking that they might have a chance against the ferocious beast if they worked together. They were afraid that Geoffrey and Woods would take the lead to win the game, so they promptly ordered their men to follow them.

Only Algy and his treasure hunting team stayed there.

"You idiots! I'll just wait here, while you people throw away your lives. When you're done, I will take advantage and get that treasure," Algy sneered arrogantly.

After that, a fierce battle broke out, and the five treasure hunting teams overwhelmed with numerical strength. Five peerless masters at the Divine Stage and a dozen masters at the Supernal Stage fought valiantly, while Algy stayed back, mocking them all the while. Logically speaking, their strength was not inadequate.

However, most of them had already consumed more than half or even more of their spiritual power to break the enchanted barrier. Then, the masters started to lose focus and kept on making stupid mistakes. The Ice Phoenix Eagle was exceedingly powerful, and the five treasure hunting teams lacked good cooperation and tacit understanding, so they could not coordinate their attacks well. They fought like they were fighting by themselves. Therefore, they could not restrain the Ice Phoenix Eagle, and most of them suffered severe injuries and even death.

More than one third of the spirit manipulators at the Heavenly Stage were incapacitated in less than an hour, and most of them had lost their fighting capacity. Several spirit manipulators at the Supernal Stage were seriously injured, and the rest could barely protect themselves.

The only ones who had some remaining strength were a few peerless masters at the Divine Stage. However, it was apparent that they couldn't defeat the Ice Phoenix Eagle, let alone approach the enchanted barrier.

All of a sudden, the Ice Phoenix Eagle spewed out a few ice balls, which exploded above several powerful men at the Supernal Stage. Queenie, who was rushing forward, was violently thrown back by the spiritual power that the explosion produced. She landed a few feet away, her face ashen and her clothes spattered with blood. Her mouth opened to speak, but a mouthful of blood was spat out instead.

The Ice Phoenix Eagle seemed to have spotted her, as it turned toward her and charged like an angry bull. She was helpless.

Her spiritual power was in a chaotic mess, and she could not move at all.

"Queenie!" Lucilla had been forced to retreat earlier, and she was horrified to see her sister in danger. She wanted to rush over, but it was too late. She was too far away.

Seeing that Queenie was unable to dodge and was about to be hit by the Ice Phoenix Eagle, a tall figure flashed to her side in time, holding her close. In the blink of an eye, he dodged away with her delicate figure in his arms.
