Thorian’s POV

With a resounding howl that echoed through the air, the colossal azure wolf repelled its assailants with a potent electric shockwave. Standing tall in the aftermath of its devastating strike, the creature bore a majestic sight, its entire form pulsating with streams of azure lightning. Fixated on Thorian with eyes that seemed to pierce his very soul, the beast silently vowed to repay his inflicted pain manifold.

In a sudden and thunderous movement, the blue wolf darted forward, materializing mere moments later right before Thorian. Its paws crackled with an electrifying energy, poised to strike down the red-furred kobold.

Damn, it's swifter than I anticipated! Thorian thought, readying himself for the impending impact. With a focused determination, he shrouded his palm in a dark flame imbued with Qi. Simultaneously, he channeled his mana into his feet with a newfound intensity and fluidity—a testament to the fruits of his rigorous training.

A sly smirk crept onto Thorian's face. Seems like my efforts have paid off, he mused, bracing for the imminent clash. The wolf’s lightning-charged paw and Thorian’s fiery palms collided with an earth-shattering roar, unleashing a shockwave that fractured the ground beneath them.

Struggling to hold his ground against the forceful onslaught, Thorian heightened the Qi within his palms, striving not to be overwhelmed by the beast's relentless momentum. Yet, as he exerted himself, a glint of satisfaction crossed the wolf’s face.

Parting its jaws, the creature began to amass arcane energy between its razor-sharp teeth, crackling with an overwhelming ferocity. At such close quarters, this impending attack threatened to render Thorian completely incapacitated.

"Oh, you're not!" Aqua screamed, summoning a colossal waterball that surged forward like a missile, disrupting the electrical flow within the blue wolf's gaping maw. Yet, that was merely the start of the assault.

Aligned with Aqua's lead, every magus unleashed a torrent of elemental spells, an array of forces converging upon the beast's jaws. Teeth shattered, and its tongue suffered grievous wounds amidst the chaotic barrage.

Reacting instinctively, the blue wolf snapped its jaws shut, but before it could fortify its defenses, Forlune charged forth with a thunderous roar. A blur of scarlet speed, he dashed toward the creature, his trusted sword cutting a lethal path through its neck, releasing torrents of blood.

Forlune's onslaught didn't conclude there. Swiftly planting his feet on the ground, he targeted the wolf's right foreleg, severing tendons and forcing the majestic beast to its knees. Without hesitation, he continued his relentless assault, carving through its chest and face with unyielding ferocity.

Not to be outdone, Thorian surged forward, hands ablaze with vibrant purple flames. Each of his strikes seared the beast's electrical form, his attacks seamlessly synchronized with Forlune's, leaving the wolf no opportunity for escape or respite.

In a symphony of coordinated strikes, their combined onslaught pressed relentlessly, denying the blue wolf any chance to recover or retaliate. Gradually, the once-fearsome creature's feeble whimpers faded into silence. Its vibrant azure form dulled, the light in its eyes extinguished, and with a final breath, the majestic beast succumbed to its wounds.

"Congratulations, you have slain the eastern guardian: Thunderclaw Dreadfang," the ethereal voice of the dungeon lady announced. "You shall now claim your rewards."

As the ethereal voice dissipated, the form of the majestic blue wolf dissolved into shimmering light specters, eventually dispersing into the heavens carried by the wind.

Drawing a deep breath, Thorian exchanged a knowing smile with Forlune before scanning their surroundings. His gaze fell upon a chest resembling those often found at the conclusion of dungeons.

"Let's swiftly gather our rewards," Thorian instructed. "We still have another Guardian to confront."

"For someone who just emerged victorious, you're certainly in a hurry," Forlune remarked wryly. "But you're not wrong. I'm itching for another battle!"

Shaking his head at Forlune's eagerness, Thorian turned his attention to the blue kobold. "Aqua, gather the rewards. We'll review them later, once our task is complete."

"Understood, my liege," Aqua acknowledged.

Thorian's forces moved swiftly, racing through the forest with remarkable speed until they reached the northern gate. The atmosphere crackled with anticipation around the gate, a deafening roar reverberating through the dense foliage. A colossal figure emerged from the shadows, its massive silhouette outlined against the silver moonlight.

The Colossus loomed like an embodiment of elemental chaos, towering over the surrounding trees. Its form, a fusion of ice and flame, exuded an otherworldly presence. Icy formations adorned its muscular frame, emitting a mesmerizing blue luminescence. Beneath its translucent skin flowed molten lava, veins of liquid fire emitting intense heat, distorting the air in its vicinity.

As the Colossus breached the wall, it moved with an awe-inspiring grace that defied its colossal size. Its mammoth claws, wreathed in dancing flames, effortlessly rent through the fortified barrier, rending stone asunder and reducing steel to twisted shards with casual ease.

Human knights and guards, displaying unwavering valor, confronted the behemoth, their swords clanging against its icy armor. However, their courageous efforts proved futile against the unstoppable force. With a single swing of its immense arms, the Colossus unleashed torrents of freezing cold and scorching heat in all directions. Knights found themselves frozen in place, encased in ice, while others succumbed to searing flames, their agonizing cries lost amidst the tumultuous chaos.

The earth quaked beneath each thunderous step of the Colossus, leaving in its wake a trail of frozen terrain and smoldering remnants. Within its glowing orbs of azure and crimson burned an ancient fury, surveying the devastation it had mercilessly wrought.

A deafening bellow erupted from the Colossus, shaking the very heavens, heralding a devastating blast of elemental energy. The gate shattered into fragments, hurling shards of ice and molten rock through the air. Fortress walls crumbled beneath the overwhelming force. In the heart of this tumult, the Colossus pressed onward—an indomitable force of nature, leaving naught but desolation in its wake.

Witnessing the relentless advance of the creature, Thorian's command cut through the chaos, resolute and urgent. "Magi, unleash your spells!"

Thorian, flanked by the assembly of magi, conjured a tempest of elemental spells that assailed the colossal behemoth. Flames danced and consumed the ice, torrents of water quenched the molten lava, gusts of wind slashed through its armor, and earth-infused projectiles cracked its defenses.

"Continue the assault!" Thorian's commanding voice thundered across the battlefield. "Do not grant it a moment's respite!"

As Thorian and his forces drew nearer, their barrage of magical onslaught intensified. Having undergone their first-class advancements, most of the magi boasted ample mana reserves, allowing them to sustain an unyielding torrent of low-level spells.

Observing the Colossus's gradual advance into the city, Thorian clicked his tongue in frustration. "We shall intercept its path," he ordered. "Maintain the assault without relenting!"

Following his directive, the relentless barrage of elemental spells hammered the colossal creature incessantly, relentlessly chipping away at its defenses and turning each step into a grueling ordeal. Simultaneously, a company of over a hundred monsters strategically repositioned themselves in front of the behemoth, surrounded by the rubble and ruins of homes and buildings.

"Warriors, charge!" Thorian's thunderous roar echoed through the chaos. "Drive it out of the city!"

Responding to his command, the warriors surged forward, obeying his directive to force the behemoth beyond the city's borders. With seamless precision, Thorian issued the next set of orders amid the tumult.

"Priests, bless them! Assassins, be on the lookout!"

Having conveyed all necessary directives, Thorian dove headlong into the fray. His lightning-quick steps closed the distance between him and Forlune, who wore a feral grin, poised for the imminent clash.

"I'll carve my name on that giant's armor!" Forlune's frenzied laughter echoed amidst the chaos as his radiant aura intensified, propelling him toward the colossal Colossus.

Each thunderous strike of Forlune's formidable blade tore through the creature's armor, steadily pushing it back. As the other warriors converged, their combined strength began to make an impact. Individually, their strikes merely nudged the giant, but united, they dictated its movement.

Thorian, too, immersed himself in the skirmish, launching a relentless assault with successive strikes from his Qi-covered palms. The purple-hued dark flames he conjured dissolved the icy exterior, revealing the vulnerable and weathered flesh beneath.

Minutes stretched into an eternity as the army persisted in their unrelenting assault. The magi continued their barrage from a distance, while the warriors sliced through the Colossus's defenses as if they were mere paper. Even the elusive assassins ceaselessly sought out openings, targeting its vital points—neck, eyes, any vulnerability they could exploit.

Their collective effort finally bore fruit as they forced the behemoth out through the breach it had created in the wall. With a decisive leap backward, Thorian commanded, "Warriors, come back right now!"

As the warriors complied, Thorian issued his next directive with unwavering authority. "Wind magi, unleash a tornado!"

At Thorian's resolute command, the elite wind magi, having undergone their first advancement, harnessed the raw power of their element. With a collective shout, they channeled their abilities, initiating their spells in unison.

Multiple tornadoes spiraled into existence simultaneously, drawing in debris, rubble, and swirling masses of air, creating a chaotic vortex of elemental fury.

Wearing a confident smirk, Thorian issued his subsequent directive. "Magi, use Fire Pillar!"

Echoes of his command lingered amidst the turmoil, and the tornadoes conjured by the wind magi converged into a colossal vortex. Howling gusts and debris encapsulated the behemoth, lifting the colossal giant off its feet, swept away by the tumultuous forces of the wind. In tandem, the fire magi unleashed their formidable powers, conjuring towering pillars of flame that surged toward the heart of the gathering vortex.

The collision between these elemental forces was cataclysmic. Deafening roars reverberated through the atmosphere, shaking the very bedrock. Lightning crackled and danced amidst the spiraling inferno, illuminating the sky with blinding flashes that painted the chaotic scene in surreal hues of orange, red, and blue.

The earth quaked violently as the merging powers clashed, rending apart any remaining structures and hurtling them into the tempest. The colossal fire tornado, a monstrous amalgamation born from the union of wind and flame, soared to towering heights, voraciously consuming everything in its path.

Molten rock and shattered debris became projectiles in the swirling vortex, casting a deadly rain of fire and destruction upon the already devastated cityscape. The unrestrained force of elemental havoc tore through the Colossus, enveloping it in a blinding maelstrom of flames and whirlwinds.

Observing from a safe distance alongside his army, Thorian stood transfixed, a mix of awe and horror etched across his face as the colossal fire tornado expanded, voraciously consuming everything in its path. The heat emanating from the swirling vortex was scalding, warping the air and sending waves of blistering heat cascading across the battlefield.

"Fall back! Retreat!" Thorian's urgent command cut through the chaos, barely audible amidst the deafening tumult. The army swiftly complied, sprinting away from the overwhelming conflagration that threatened to engulf them entirely.

The ground quivered beneath their fleeing feet as the cataclysmic force continued its rampage, consuming the remnants of the Colossus and metamorphosing the once-thriving city into a nightmarish inferno.

"Congratulations, you have slain the northern guardian: the Frostfire Collosus," echoed the voice of the dungeon lady, heralding their victory. "You shall now claim your rewards."
