Chapter 567: The Frozen Lake (VI)
The shining meteor roared by, smashing heavily on the ice demon's body, and for a while, the ice chips splashed everywhere, and the strong soul power tore through the ice demon's hard shell and went deep into it. For a while, I saw that under the ice layer that constituted the ice demon's body, countless soul powers seemed to be the thunder shining in the ice demon's body, exuding dazzling brilliance, and with a series of dull sounds, the ice demon's body suddenly exploded in all directions, which made the ice demon let out a wail, and then it quickly retracted and retreated.
It's no wonder that the Ice Demon reacts like this, as an elemental creature, it is not afraid of physical attacks, because pure elemental creatures are completely condensed and shaped by the power of the soul, and the form is nothing more than a carrier for them. Because of this, they lack the nerves and flesh that creatures possess, so normal physical attacks are almost meaningless to elemental creatures.
But on the other hand, because of this, elemental creatures are very sensitive to the thousand wades of soul power, and the purer and more powerful the soul power, the greater the damage caused to them. Although Rhodes's own level has only just stepped into the master level, his swordsmanship has reached the level of a legend, and under the full release, the ice demon naturally can't resist it.
"Whoosh!!"
Just as the Ice Demon Cang Empress retreated, the rangers not far away also quickly stretched their bows and drew arrows, aiming at the enemy in front of them, and then one after another bright red arrows flew out of their white spoon hands, shè towards the ice demon. Soon, with a deafening roar, clusters of exploding flames erupted continuously on the ice demon's body, which made the ice demon feel even more embarrassed——— although the rangers were not as strong as Rhodes, but the elemental restraint could still bring a certain degree of hindrance and restriction to the ice demon.
“————!!”
The Ice Demon, who had encountered a head-on attack, finally became more and more angry at this moment, as an elemental creature of the chaotic camp, it hated all life since it was born, and now, these lowly ants actually dared to make themselves so embarrassed, which made the Ice Demon suddenly unable to bear it anymore, it raised its head and roared, and then, the elemental brilliance of the green sè emerged from the periphery of its body, becoming more and more violent.
At the same time, a dazzling pillar of light descended from the abrupt air, slamming into the Ice Demon's body like a giant hammer, and the Ice Demon felt a divine aura suddenly invade and interrupt the elemental power it was condensing, which even made the poor behemoth's body tremble, and then almost fell to the ground.
"It's now!!"
Seeing that the monster in front of him lost his balance, Marfa immediately shouted, and when he heard his call, the mercenaries around him also understood, they raised the long sword in their hands high, and then shouted in unison, and then clenched the long sword with both hands and stabbed it towards the ice demon's hind legs. And at the same time, the spirit masters standing behind Marfa also suddenly began to move, they chanted words in their mouths, and stretched out their hands at the same time, and soon, a ray of brilliance shrouded the mercenary white spoon body, and with the white spoon action of the spirit masters, the flames that were originally shrouded in the mercenaries suddenly became more and more fierce at this time, and even their white spoon long sword body was rendered with a bright red sè. Under the leadership of Marfa, the mercenaries' white spoon swords stabbed heavily into the ice demon's body, and then they saw the lava stream condensed by flames deep into it, and the water vapor erupted from Bai Sè, and large chunks of ice fell downward. In the blink of an eye, I saw that the Ice Demon's hind legs seemed to have been stripped of a layer of skin, and most of them were suddenly cut in half. And this became the last straw that crushed it.
The Ice Demon, which had been interrupted by the elemental condensation, had no way to continue to maintain its balance at this moment, and at this moment, in the face of the attack of Marfa and other mercenaries, it finally could no longer support it, and its huge body was crooked, and then it fell heavily on the ice. And the mercenaries had already turned over and dodged at this moment, avoiding the tragedy of being crushed by its huge body.
Seeing this scene in front of him, Rod's eyes lit up, he quickly withdrew his sword and retreated, and then made a gesture forward with his left hand, and soon, the soul bird chirped again and roared down, and with its movements, dozens of thunderbolts suddenly appeared out of thin air, hitting the ice demon's body hard, countless shining arcs of lightning restrained the ice demon's huge body like a cage, at the same time, Rod's left hand pressed down, with his movement, the pitch black, and the hellhound wrapped in flames roared out, And after seeing the enemy in front of him, this cute "kamikaze daring dog" did not hesitate at all, and immediately screamed and pounced.
However, Ice Demon is not an easy one.
Although the lightning cage of the soul bird restrained its movements, its level was still too low, and the wind element and the water element were not compatible, so the Dao lightning only lasted for a few seconds on the ice demon and disappeared completely, and soon the large area that was originally melted by the mercenaries quickly began to recover at a speed visible to the naked eye, this is the frozen lake, and there is no lack of ice if everything is lacking, and soon, when everyone entered, they saw that huge monster and suddenly turned over and stood up again, And the part that was attacked by the mercenaries before has been completely wrapped in thick ice at this time, as if it has not been harmed in any way.
However, the mercenaries did not hang their heads, in the phantom space, they had long known the terrible recovery ability of this monster, frankly speaking, if they were desperate, they had already despaired dozens of times during training, and now naturally they would not have such thoughts, not to mention that so far, everything this monster has done is exactly the same as the actions of the phantom that they lost during training, which has brought the mercenaries unprecedented confidence. Not to mention that with Rod here at the moment, he has already shared a lot of pressure for them, Bi Jing will not make a move in training, and these mercenaries naturally cannot have a main output and containment like now, which makes the mercenaries feel simpler than when they were trained. They only backed back slightly, and then began to circle around the Ice Demon again to avoid confrontation head-on, and to watch out for the Ice Demon's tail-flicking attacks.
"Roaring .................."
An ice demon who turned over and got up again naturally saw these ants wandering around him, which made it feel even more angry, seeing that the mercenaries were planning to leave its attack range, the ice demon naturally would not stop there, it suddenly turned around, and then opened its big mouth and tore at the mercenaries.
And at this time, a fierce flame suddenly struck from the side, slamming heavily on the head of the ice demon, the hellhound jumped high, and the sharp claws tore heavily on the ice demon's head, the scorching heat and flames suddenly erupted, and this sudden attack also suddenly made the ice demon's movements pause, but it quickly reacted, shook its neck suddenly, and threw the hellhound that was originally torn on its head out of the coffin. Then, the Ice Demon raised his right paw high and slapped it at the hellhound that had fallen on the ice before he could get up.
“————!!”
A loud roar rang out in the air.
The fierce impact and the condensation of the heat formed the fire light from under the claws of the ice demon, and for the ice demon, it did not expect such an unexpected surprise at all, and it was too late to dodge in a panic. The powerful explosion formed by the Hellhound's self-explosion extended all the way up the Ice Demon's claws, only to see the Ice Demon's front claws shatter along with his arms, and an invisible shockwave went up, tearing everything in front of him like a huge and transparent meat grinder.
"Oh ......!!"
This sudden explosion not only made the ice demon's forelimbs completely shattered, but the ensuing shock wave made it involuntarily stand up, and for a while the ice demon's middle door was wide open, and at this time, Rhodes had already connected the sword into a dazzling light, like a meteor slashing past the edge, and then hit the ice demon's chest heavily.
"Bang!!"
Rhodes gritted his teeth, and the two short swords in his hand burst out with bright soul brilliance, they were deeply inserted into the ice demon's chest, and the sharp short sword went straight into the handle, crazy, like a river of soul power vented out of it, impacting the body of the ice demon in front of him again and again.
For the Ice Demon, it naturally sensed that it was a life-and-death stake, and in the face of Rod's attack, the Ice Demon finally made a choice——— only to see it raise its head and roar angrily, and soon, the originally flat ice surface around it began to tremble and collapse, and one huge ice block after another split out of it, and then went towards the Ice Demon's swift shè. And perceiving the crisis behind him, Rod also made a decision immediately, he raised his eyebrows slightly, then raised his hands, and soon, two short swords flew out of the ice demon's chest with Rhodes' movements, and then Rod staggered his hands and threw them down, and he Benjin used the power of this wave of recoil to quickly retreat back with a series of afterimages, which could avoid the ice edges that flew shè. Then Rhodes turned around and landed lightly on the ice, and then he raised his head and stared at the ice demon in front of him.
At this moment, the ice demon can be said to be embarrassed, its chest has collapsed most of it due to the impact of Rod's soul, and at this moment, the ice cubes under the ice demon's neck have almost completely shattered, and countless ice cubes that have lost the restraint and condensation of elemental power are falling in large chunks, revealing shocking wounds. If you change any of your lifeforms, you're afraid you'd already be dead at this moment, but for the Ice Demon, this is just another injury.
However, this is not without its effects.
"Aim carefully!"
Seeing this scene in front of him, Lando immediately gave an order, he reached out and pulled out a bright red arrow from his back, bent his bow and set the arrow, and beside Lando, the other rangers also made the same action, they raised their longbows high and aimed at the target in front of them, and then, the red sè's arrow burst out.
"Boom, boom!!"
With the white spoon attack of the rangers, the continuous firelight erupted again, and the explosive arrow entered the ice demon's body along the gap that Rhodes blasted open, and once again erupted with unprecedented strength, which also made the ice demon's original plan to use the surrounding ice blocks to repair his body frustrate again. And for the Ice Devil, it is finally in a dangerous situation at this moment. The mercenaries continued one after another, and the continuous attacks made the ice demon a little breathless, and this was exactly what Rhodes requested——— to deal with an elemental creature, especially an elemental creature that is like a fish in water, the best way to deal with it is to use continuous attacks to consume its strength, and not give it a chance to replenish its strength. Although the Ice Demon comes from the water elemental plane, it is considered a pure elemental creature. But the problem is that this is not the water elemental plane, and naturally it is impossible to have pure elemental power like the water elemental plane, and because of this, even when it needs to recover from an attack, the ice demon's recovery speed is far less fast and convenient than it is in the water elemental plane.
This is the reason why Rhodes dared to seize this opportunity to chase and fight the Ice Demon, as long as he relied on his own strength, coupled with the continuous attacks of the mercenaries, and did not give the Ice Demon a chance to recover, then it was not wishful thinking to succeed in killing it. And now, this scene in front of him also proves that Rod's plan is correct!
For the other mercenaries, of course, they will not be as deep and complicated as Rhodes considered, but they also know very well that now that monster has fallen into a decline, as long as they work harder, then this monster will be finished!!
However, the Ice Demon naturally won't just sit still. It raised its body with difficulty, its eyes containing elemental brilliance swept to the side, and then the ice demon let out a long groan, and then, its long, thick tail was now extremely dexterous and flew up from the ground, flung into the air!
The Ice Demon's attack could be said to be very fast, and the soul bird flying in the sky didn't even react, but it was hit by the opponent's tail, and then it fell to the ground with a wailing sound, and turned into a shining point of light the moment it hit the ground, completely disappearing into the air.
But this time, the Ice Demon's target was not just as simple as the Soul Bird, after beating the Soul Bird, its tail suddenly fell, but it was pumping towards Li Jie and others who were standing on the periphery!
Although Li Jie and other spirit masters did not directly cause any damage to the ice demons in this battle, they have been silently supporting these mercenaries in the rear, although most of the time the mercenaries can avoid the attack of the ice demons, but sometimes they will still be able to resist for various reasons, and until this time, the protection and blessing of the spirit masters with white spoons reflects the value of their white spoons——— no matter how close their white spoon strength is to the master, These mercenaries in front of them were only at the peak level of Jīng Ying, without the blessing and guardian assistance of the spirit master, even with the assistance of the elemental badge, how could they so easily inflict a lot of damage on an elemental creature of the level of the Ice Demon?
As an elemental creature, the ice demon is naturally the most sensitive to the flow of soul power, and after colliding with Rhodes, the cunning monster has already sensed that the opponent's strong soul power is not under him, and there is no good fruit to eat when he encounters the opponent. On the contrary, although the soul power of those who were standing far away from the class was not strong, it made it feel extremely irritable, so after pumping the soul bird, the ice demon did not hesitate at all, and the long tail took advantage of the momentum, and suddenly became a little longer, and the sharp ice spike quickly stretched out from the top of its tail, like a giant thorn and flew towards the spirit masters.
"Oops!!"
Seeing this scene in front of her, Li Jie's face also changed slightly, she quickly changed her gestures, and then pushed forward with both hands, and with Li Jie's movements, countless golden runes emerged from her hands, circling to form a large circle and a small circle to move forward, forming an indestructible barrier, blocking in front of everyone.
And at this time, the tail of the ice demon had already arrived, and it slammed into the protective barrier.
"Bang Bang Bang !!"
Under the exchange of blows between the two sides, there were several dull collision sounds, and then the ice demon's tail was pushed forward like a broken bamboo, and in front of it, the circular barrier released by Lijie was like glass shattering, splitting, and disappearing into the air.
"Woooooo
With the rupture of the last barrier, Lijie finally couldn't hold on and flew backwards, she lay on the ground, looking at the sharp ice thorns that were getting closer and closer to her with frightened eyes——— the white and flawless ice thorns exuded a cold, terrifying glow in the sun, as if it could completely penetrate the girl's body in the blink of an eye. But at this time, a figure stood in front of Lijie.
"You can't get your way!!"
Anne raised the jīng gold heavy shield in her hand high, and with the girl's movements, the white sè steam erupted from the gap in the jīng gold heavy shield, and then Anne slammed down hard, only to see the sharp triangular pyramid plunged into the ice like this, and then the jīng gold heavy shield in Annie's hand quickly opened, enveloping her and Lijie.
And the sharp ice spikes also arrived at this moment.
"Ding!!
The thick and huge ice spikes collided heavily on the heavy jīng golden heavy shield, making a crisp sound, and the huge impact force hit from the front, pushing the girl to slide backwards quickly, and even so, Anne still gritted her teeth, holding the jīng golden heavy shield with both hands, and let the huge impact force push herself backwards for a full ten meters, and then Annie's figure shook suddenly, but it did not fall because of this, but the ice spikes seemed to be unable to withstand the force of the recoil, There was a sudden pause.
"Uncle Marfa, it's up to you!"
And at this moment, Anne steadied herself and shouted ahead.
