Back at Avarosa's camp on the front line, Ash was about to gather his soldiers for a final assault on Winterclaw's base camp, only to see smoke rising from the camp behind him.

The fire grew stronger and stronger, and even in the coldest north-west of Freljord, it did not recede in the slightest.

Standing still, Ash didn't react for a moment, staring at the flames dancing wildly under the wind and snow.

"Report ...... Report...... Report, Your Majesty, just now, a group of soldiers of the Claws of Winter secretly went around the rear material reserve camp of our army's front command headquarters and set all the grain, grass and heating supplies on fire! ”

It wasn't until a soldier from the rear who had come to report the battle appeared in a panic that Ash came to his senses, and it turned out that this was not a dream.

Her blue eyes reflected the raging flames behind her, and the anger in her heart could no longer be suppressed.

Trembling with anger, Ash gritted her teeth: "Damn Sejuani, give the order to go down immediately, the whole army will attack, I will pay for their despicable evil deeds by the Claws of Winter......"

Before the word could be blurted out, a dangerous warning suddenly rose in Ash's heart. As the warning of danger grew stronger, she subconsciously turned sideways and watched a flaming arrow feather pass in front of her eyes.

Although she avoided being injured by the rocket in the vital part, the spark on the edge of the arrow feather ignited the Frost Empress dress that she had custom-ordered.

The queen's robe began to be burned at a speed visible to the naked eye, Ash's pupils shrank instantly, and the cold blood veins in her body instantly awakened, preventing the fire from continuing to spread on her body.

Looking at the hole in his waist where his clothes had been burned by the flames, and the scars on his waist that had been burned by the flames, Ash couldn't calm down anymore.

Turning back to look at Winterclaw's location, Ash saw the vast expanse of Winterclaw warriors rushing towards him.

The rumbling hooves of the Icefield beasts and the roar of the Winterclaw warriors were like war songs, sounding the horn of Winterclaw's counterattack.

And Sejuani on the boar in the ice field was holding a bow in her hand at this time, and the contemptuous gaze thrown in this direction also made Ash aware that the arrow just now was shot by Sejuani.

As if sensing Ash's hostile gaze, Sejuani threw the bow in her hand and pulled out the ice crystal chain whip wrapped around her waist in her right hand.

"Kill all those false cowards in Avarosa!"

Sejuani's arrogant declaration naturally fell into Ash's ears, and she ordered the guards and soldiers beside her: "Quickly gather all the soldiers on the front line, Winterclaw is only making a final struggle!"

However, as soon as she gave the order, the soldier beside her said: "Your Majesty, not only have the war materials in the rear been burned, but those Winter Claw soldiers who have infiltrated the rear do not fight us head-on, but harass our rear forces from time to time, if we fight on two fronts, we will inevitably be exhausted to death by the Claws of Winter!"

"Can't even solve a few rats that can only sneak around and burn supplies? What a ......."

At this time, Ash was already so angry that her mind was dizzy, and she couldn't help but gasp and force herself to calm down.

"Withdraw to the next camp first, now that the vast land of Winterclaw is our stronghold, we still have the advantage!"

Trying to stabilize the morale of the army, Ash had to give up this golden opportunity to defeat the Winterclaw base camp and choose to retreat to the next stronghold they occupied first.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

……

Just as Ash's assault on Winterclaw's stronghold was thwarted, Avarosa's sphere of influence south of Freljord saw a dark green beam of mad light descend across the sea level on the border with Demacia.

Long before the mad green light descended, Calista, who was guarding Demacia, had already led some of her undead soldiers to this place.

Not long after the terrifying green light descended, hordes of dead spirits descended from the Shadow Isle on the other side of the sea to Freljord's territory.

It didn't take long for the army of the undead to cease with the green light, but eventually, a ghostly figure familiar to Calista descended on the land.

"Hammerstone, why are you here?"

Some accidents will end up landing on the land of Freljord, and Calista, who is a few words, rarely asks first.

As soon as Hammerstone came, he said with a solemn face: "Elise has not heard from her for almost ten days, you should know about this, right?"

Hearing this, Calista's eyes narrowed slightly: "I also came here because I haven't received a response from Elise."

Hammerstone nodded, and said meaningfully: "After all, Anivia is an ice crystal phoenix that became a god ten thousand years ago, and her habitat is also in the coldest permafrost land in Valoran, which is a place where even gods dare not stay for a long time, coupled with Elise's easy-to-empty temperament and revenge heart, I am afraid that something will happen to her, so she came."

Knowing that Hammerstone's intentions were strikingly similar to hers, Calista rarely agreed, "Same as I thought."

Hammerstone glanced at the undead soldier behind Calista, and thought for a while before saying, "You go back to guard Demacia first, and Freljord will then hand it over to me to deal with, and while looking for Elise's traces, I will also include this place as the territory of Shadow Island by the way, which can be regarded as completing the mission she missed for Elise."

"Don't you need my help?" Even Elise's whereabouts to Freljord were unknown, and Calista felt that it would be more certain that the two leaders would go together.

"No need for the time being, don't worry, I won't make the mistake that Elise made, if I really need you, my lantern will appear in front of you!"

A demonic grin erupted into his mouth, and Hammerstone motioned to Calista to leave Freeljord to him at his disposal.

Seeing him so confident, Calista frowned at him for a long time before leaving Freljord's territory with the undead soldiers behind her.

Seeing Calista go away, Hammerstone immediately ordered the undead brought by him, "It's time to conquer the last human kingdom on this continent!"

With his command, all the undead let out a terrible undead scream. All the screams converged to form a rolling wave of undead sound that covered the entire southern sphere of influence of Alvarossa.

For Alvarossa, who lived in Freeljord, except for a handful of adventurers who had traveled the continent and refugees from other countries, they had hardly seen any demons and undead under the protection of the Ice Crystal Phoenix.

The moment they heard the terrifying screams of the undead, most of them were slightly stunned. But after experiencing the night of the blood moon, they quickly recalled the purgatory image reflected in the sky not long ago, and this time it also made them realize something, and countless people were frightened and turned pale.

The echo of the screams of the undead indicates that the claws of the Shadow Isle have reached out to this land of polar ice that has been quiet for thousands of years.
