Chapter 629： thaw

The team went all the way to the east and barely encountered any envisioned enemies.

There are no elite clusters of crystals, and there are no large units that have returned. On the way, this unit led by Gao Wen has only encountered several small-scale wandering clusters—the monsters that have lost control are aimlessly Wandering between the plains and the hills, seeing the chariots rushed up desperately, and then easily wiped out clean, it is not a threat.

This situation continued until the fragmented high wall of Boulder City appeared in the field of observation.

The soldier’s car as an observer returned to the car and took off the multi-functional tactical eyepiece with some horror on his face: “Report, a large piece of frozen trace was found in front, and there was a wide-area magic reaction!”

Amber's line of sight through the car's observation hole, looking at the ruins of the street outside, she saw large swaths of frost covered in the surface of the collapsed brick and wood beams, the blood of the tiny end reddish the ice crystals hanging between the broken walls, On the outskirts of the city, the amount of ice and snow is not much, but as the team deepens, a world that can be described by ice and snow gradually appears in front of everyone.

Thick ice covered the entire inner city, and numerous corpses were turned into icy sculptures. The whistling wind rolled up layers of snow and fluttered on the steel armor of the tank. The core of the city suffered an ice. The seal, the power of this ice, even makes people suspect that the winter has returned to the world again - in this season that should be getting hotter.

Amber looked at the scene outside with amazement and couldn't help but mutter: "This is... what happened..."

"A very powerful... wide-area magic, legendary," Wright couldn't help but secretly say, "I have never seen a similar spell."

"White Knight, get off the bus," Gao Wen thoughtfully looked through the observation port to the outside of the frozen city, and then suddenly ordered, "the rest of the team and soldiers to be vigilant, low speed."

The armored truck of the White Knight quickly stopped, and Wright led his elite priests to jump off the truck and hand the hammer to the front of the team.

Gao Wen also left the car with Amber and Maggie. He jumped to the ground, and the metal boots stepped on the hard ice. The latter then burst into a phantom, ethereal, cracking sound. The sound was obviously not normal. Should be issued.

Gao Wen bent down and picked up a few pieces of broken ice, and then slowly crushed it while pouring the magic. The seemingly solid ice immediately cracked openly, and then turned into magic dust that drifted with the wind. A little bit of ablation in the air.

Amber saw this scene suddenly widened his eyes: "Ah... are these ices made with magic?"

"It’s been a long time since I saw this scene... Snow’s 'cold disaster',” Gao Wen’s mind showed a corresponding memory. He whispered and looked at the side of the face with a little stunned Maggie. “When did Victoria break through to the legendary peak?”

"The legendary peak? No... Victoria, she should be just a legendary junior..." Maggie snorted, then asked nervously. "Do you know what is going on here? Why is it so quiet? - Enemy and Mountain Legion It seems like..."

"Don't be nervous," Gao Wen interrupted Maggie. "Since it is already frozen, she and the Mountain Legion will definitely be alive. Of course, some extra things should be alive..."

His voice just fell, and the soldiers in front of the road suddenly shouted loudly: "Sir! There are a lot of frozen giants here!"

That scene is hard to forget - countless clusters of giants are frozen inside the ice, covered with a layer of transparent ice, as if wearing a weird armor standing in the sun, they are assembled in groups In the squares, steps and roads of the castle area, various postures during the assembly were maintained, as if they had not realized that the winter had arrived until the moment of freezing.

It seems that most of the cluster giants who besieged Boulder City have been left here.

Amber looked at the horrible scene in front of him in amazement. After a long time, he suddenly said: "Is this the duke of the North? If she had this skill... Why didn't she use it..."

"This is the legendary spell 'cold disaster', but I suspect that Victoria is not skilled, and in the unskilled case, the cold can not kill any enemy - Victoria should be used after realizing that there is reinforcement This spell, the Crystal Cluster Corps, which could have been able to return to Hongfeng in time, stayed here for a while," Gao Wen said casually about his own speculation, and at the same time he felt a little emotional. "It doesn't look like Snow's. When Snow was playing this cold disaster..."

Wright came to Gao Wen: "How do we deal with these... ice sculptures?"

"Crushing, smashing them when they are still frozen," Gao Wen glanced at the heavy warhammers in the hands of the white knights, looked at the chariots and soldiers around him, and finally looked at the giant clusters. "Only Leave this maximum number, lock it in advance, and wait for 'thaw' and then send it back to the back as research material."

"They will thaw?!" Wright first horrified, then quickly commanded the soldiers to execute Gao Wen's order, "Hurry up and break these ice sculptures..."

The white knights picked up their life-saving hammers and began to save those souls that had broken into twists. Gao Wen walked toward the ramp not far away: "Let's go inside and see the situation in Victoria, the center of the cold The area looks like a castle inner court, she should be waiting for us inside."

In the inner court area of ​​the castle, Gao Wen and Amber quickly found the same mountain corps in the frozen state, as well as the Victorian female prince who was surrounded by the knights and mages of the Mountain Legion.

The last mountain corps and their monarchs were frozen in the artificial icebergs in the inner court area, and the thicker ice layer outside the area freezes nearly two-thirds of the entire inner court into a whole. I am afraid that the white knight’s warhammer is also Unable to shake it through the crystal clear ice, Gao Wen can clearly see the tired but determined soldiers, see the scarred knights, see the wizards and attendants who have pulled out the short sword, of course, I can see Victoria Verde, who is holding the staff and holding the last expression on the ice.

After seeing the equally frozen Victoria, Gao Wen’s expression was a bit unexpected.

Everyone is shocked by the power and beauty of this legendary spell. Gao Wen temporarily put an end to the accident and began to explain the situation of the spell according to the information in memory: "Snow? Wilder created the cold disaster, it is a A spell that can temporarily freeze the entire battlefield, the ice that is summoned can even freeze the weaker legendary powerhouse, but it is not killing itself - all ice cubes are magic products, frozen The units are only temporarily suspended in the magic field. As the cold end ends, the magic field dissipates, and the frozen target will regain its ability to freely move, so it can only be used for temporary control, but it does not have direct killing. Sex..."

"How do I feel that this spell is a bit problematic..." Amber looked strangely at the huge iceberg in the inner court. "If the spellcaster is frozen together, what is the use of this 'cold disaster'? Temporarily freeze and calm down, then wait for the 'ice' to continue playing?"

Gao Wen glanced at Victoria's direction and said after a brief indulgence: "This is the case. Snow did not freeze himself into the chills...

"I don't want to understand how Victoria has frozen himself."

Amber: "...ah?"

Wright led his pastors to complete Gao Wen’s orders in a short period of time. They broke all the “ice sculptures” found in the inner city of the castle – or hammered each frozen cluster. Gao Wen, who is in the inner court of the castle, waited longer to wait until the end of the cold effect, until the magic melted.

Just in front of everyone, the huge iceberg disintegrated almost instantly, and the mountain corps survivors who were frozen inside recovered their waking one after another. The thinking of these loyal fighters still seems to be stagnant in the previous state. They were rushed for a while under the instinctive inertia, and then they suddenly found themselves surrounded by armed and unfamiliar soldiers.

Gao Wen waited until the chaos subsided a little, and then walked forward. He crossed the magical crystals of the air that had not yet dissipated, and reached out to the horrified Victoria. "I didn't expect to meet in this state. - Fortunately. I am not too late."

"It's you... is you attacking Red Maple?!" Victoria seemed to react, and reached out with a slow half-shoot. This kind of ignorance is not common in this female grandfather, but considering her All the changes that have just been experienced are understandable. "I really didn't think... ah, the monsters outside the castle..."

"I have already dealt with it, I know the 'cold disaster'," Gao Wen said with a smile. "But I am very curious. You are not worried about people who don't know about the cold. Are you close here? After the freezing of the ice, those who suddenly resumed activities. A cluster of giants can mean a huge danger."

"In Ansou, people who have the ability to rescue the Mountain Legion are sure to know the 'Chill Disaster', which is the symbolic power of the Wilde family," Victoria said. "But... I did not expect it to be you..."

"I am afraid that there is only a complete military force in the entire Ansu area," Gao Wen shook his head and then looked at Wright, who had just returned from his mission. "You are treating the wounded with the white knights. There are many people who need first aid and squatting." Disease. Also take the food and prepare clean drinking water..."

The soldiers immediately began to act, and the intense and orderly rescue work began. The injured mountain corps officers quickly received effective treatment and appeasement. The large amount of food and water brought by the car supplemented the physical strength of these tired people. .

In a busy and orderly rescue, Victoria forced a spirit to ask Gao Wen about the current external situation.

"Unfortunately, the Knights of the Kings have no ability to come out and turn the tide. They should now try their best to guard the city of St. Sunil. The Western Army has not appeared near the Gorgon River, they may be directly filled in St. Su Neil’s battlefield. The East Army Corps has been completely destroyed. At present, the entire East is in an unmanned state. I am trying to maintain the order there..."

Gao Wen said about the intelligence he had, but each of these pieces of information made Victoria's mood even lower.

"I didn't expect the situation to be so bad." The female duke frowned. She was a person who rarely showed a lot of expressions on weekdays, but today all her expressions are no longer hidden, and the whole person even It is very vivid. "I thought that the East will retain some of the main force against this disaster... but I did not expect them to be worse than the situation of the Mountain Legion."

"This disaster is the first to erupt from their side," Gao Wen said, and then looked at Victoria with a bit of curiosity. "In fact, I have something very curious... Why did your cold disaster freeze yourself? As far as I know, when Snow created this spell, there was no problem with the spellcaster being frozen."

Victoria was silent, and the atmosphere on the scene seemed to be a little bit awkward in these few seconds.

"Actually, I didn't master this spell..." The female Duke finally had to tell the story. She took out the faded golden snowflake charm of the family. The tone was quite awkward. It was a slap in the ancestors. The cold disaster has been lost before many generations, and the power symbol of the Wilde family has always been based on this talisman."

The Wilde family in the north lost the inheritance of the "cold disaster" before many generations...

Gao Wen’s heart suddenly felt awkward, feeling the power of the years, but soon his eyes were attracted by the unique material luster of Victoria’s hand.

"Do you know where the material for making this talisman comes from? Have you melted a piece of eternal slate?!"
