Even when severely injured, the Temple Guardian still had the strength to counterattack, swinging the Giant Pincers backward to force Barin to retreat. The collision with the axe handle didn't knock him down, but it made him step back a few paces to stabilize.
The Guardian's attack showed no sign of stopping, suddenly erupting and charging straight toward Baldwin.
The size difference between the two was obvious, and even though Baldwin raised the broken sword horizontally in front, he could hardly withstand the terrifying power of the Temple Guardian's onslaught, being directly knocked away.
As it charged ahead with Baldwin, creating some distance, Lance could no longer play around with the Guardian. He reached for a thick, long item in his hand, about two meters long, the Armor-Piercing Whale Horn, and quickly rushed forward, thrusting it from behind.
