Muji POV
The horde of Lizard men began to rush at us as I began to panic. I doubt even Ms Shinmon could handle over ten thousand Lizard man, and now they were heading towards us.
I jumped down to my group and took out the lizard man chasing them with a cloud of smoke. Making it small enough to not hit my teammates.
"We need to go!! Now!!"
"Huh? Why?"
A loud thumping noise began to hit our ears as a large army of blood thirsty Lizard men came rush towards us. Everyone became pale in the face, overcome by a wave of fear.
"We need to move!! This is no time to be afraid!!"
Adjest, Mari, and Vas, all placed their hands on the ground and created large walls with their mana. Adjest's wall was obviously larger than theirs due to her mana being way higher.
"That should've bought us some time!! We need to move!!"
We could hear the Lizard man tearing away at the walls with ease. We began to run, everyone panicking as we did.
"Where will we go?! Those things will chase us forever!!"
"I don't know but we can't just stay here!! They number at least ten thousand, fighting those odds is suicide!!"
"Muji can't you just use poison?!"
"If I could produce something that large and powerful we wouldn't be running right now!!"
The walls that my party members put up began to fall as the Lizard men continued to chase after us. As we were running they began to chuck their spears at us, making it look like it was raining spears.
"Crap, if we get hit by one of those then-!!"
Vas quickly stopped running and took in a deep breath before stomping on the ground. A curved wall of earth came up as everyone quickly stood behind said wall to avoid the spears.
However there was one big problem, the Lizard men were still after us.
"What do we do?! I don't think there's a way out of this for us..."
Suddenly the large collection of rampaging Lizard men stopping running towards us, turning back around and heading back towards the egg.
I let out a sigh of relief and collapsed, everyone looking at me confused.
"It's fine...for some reason they stopped chasing us. We can take a small break-
A very large signature of mana suddenly formed, causing Adjest, Iris, Chris, and myself to look in the direction of the egg.
"W-What is that absurd mana signature?! It feels stronger than anything I've ever..."
Iris fell back as she began to run her hands through her hair.
"We're gonna die...that thing is gonna kill us...."
Mari walked over to me and tapped my shoulder.
"Muji, is it that bad?"
I nodded with a nervous gulp.
"The only way I can describe it is a bottomless pit of pure malice and mana. It's making my insides turn."
Mari shivered.
"Then we seriously need to get out of here. If you three say we can't beat it then we definitely can't. Everyone let's-
Mari cut herself off when a figure stood in front of us. A very tall slender Lizard woman? I didn't even know they had women in their species.
It wore some type of crown.
