Chapter 793: Battlefield Changes in an Instant
“Clearly two unrelated Abilities, yet they appeared on one Creature.”
Cynder waved her Sword, and a Circle of Fire Wall immediately rose around her, forcing back all the Frost Phantoms who wanted to besiege her.
Logically speaking, even if Cynder's Flame could hurt the Frost Phantoms, they, possessing Intangibility Ability, shouldn't be afraid of a small Fire Wall. What truly made them retreat was the unknown.
The rising Flame was the best choice to obscure Line of Sight. Frost Phantoms had not evolved Vision capable of penetrating Flame. They didn't know what was waiting for them behind the Fire Wall.
Their foster father, **Albedo**, had once told them that the unknown represented Danger. Unless they were in a desperate situation with no way to retreat, it was not advisable to take risks.
Life was more important than anything. Only by surviving could they do Business. These were all Reasons their foster father had taught them.
So, in a temporarily advantageous Situation, the Frost Phantoms chose to retreat one after another. Their foster father had also told them that in this World, there were all kinds of capable people and strange experts, and there were quite a few who could catch them even in Intangibility State.
Therefore, none of the Frost Phantoms present particularly relied on Intangibility. They only used it as a Means of Attack and a second Choice when facing Attack. For them, the first Choice was always Evasion.
"Breath Attack!"
White Ice Specter issued an Order again. This time, more than a dozen Frost Phantoms appeared, all of whom had returned after completing their Mission.
With an Order, more than twenty Frost Phantoms inhaled at the same time. When their chests expanded to an unbelievable extent, they simultaneously released Ice Breath from their mouths.
In fact, the lung capacity of each Frost Phantom was different, and the amount of Cold Air their lungs could store also varied. Take the leading White Ice Specter as an example, the amount he could store was 0.5 times more than a normal Frost Phantom.
As a white mutated individual, his changes were not limited to the Color of his Body. His Physical Fitness was also comprehensively stronger than other Kin.
According to **Albedo's** calculations, even if Yang Le transformed into **Big Chill**, his Physical Ability would still be slightly weaker than this Child's. It could be considered that the student surpasses the master.
However, in Team Cooperation, outstanding individual Ability was not necessary. Therefore, when these Little Guys trained in the Dimension, they spontaneously set many Restrictions for the Team, including the amount of inhalation.
Everyone, regardless of individual combat, but once in the Team Cooperation phase, they must strictly follow the Rules of training. They wanted to become a rope twisted into one strand, a Rope that could bring Help to their Parents.
More than twenty Frost Phantoms formed an Encirclement, spewing Cold Air at the Fire Wall in the Center. At first, the scorching Flame could still resist the Cold Air a little, but after a long Time, it couldn't hold on.
After all, the Frost Phantoms were numerous and powerful, and they launched attacks from multiple angles together. The current result was all within White Ice Specter's expectations.
After the Fire Wall shrank, Cynder's Figure was finally exposed again. However, she didn't have any awareness of being surrounded. On the contrary, she always wore that Smile of ease.
"Just this little bit of power, and you dare to dream of killing me?" Cynder laughed loudly, mocking the Frost Phantoms' overestimation of their own Power.
"It's like trying to extinguish the Sun with a Fan, wishful thinking!"
Cindy waved her Sword, and the surrounding Fire Wall burned fiercely again. The difference was that this time, with Cindy's intervention, the Fire Wall rotated, turning into a Fire Tornado and spreading in all directions.
From beginning to end, the Frost Phantoms had not stopped their Breath Attack, but their concerted Attack had no Method to deal with this Fire Tornado. On the contrary, it seemed to be using the Fire Intensity to become even more vigorous.
"Scatter!"
White Phantom issued an Order again. The other Frost Phantoms immediately flapped their Wings and scattered, fleeing without the slightest hesitation. Their obedience to the Captain's Order reached the point of strict enforcement.
"Want to escape? Not so easy!"
Cynder obviously wouldn't let go of this Opportunity. Raging Fire rose under her feet, pushing her forward quickly like a Thruster. In the blink of an eye, she rushed in front of a Frost Phantom.
This time, the Speed was much faster than before. The Frost Phantom she had chosen obviously couldn't react in time. By the time he activated his Intangibility Ability, it was already too late.
The Flame Greatsword severed his Left Hand and left Wings. When the Flame licked his Body, the Frost Phantom completed Intangibility, but it was too late. The Sword Blade had already grazed into his Body.
The Frost Phantom who lost his Wings fell from the Sky. Cynder clicked her tongue in displeasure. Although she hadn't completely severed him, her Sword had already cut through the opponent's Skin, and Flame had even invaded the opponent's Inside Body.
That Frost Phantom was already At the End of Their Rope. It wouldn't be long before her Flame could roast the opponent from the inside out.
The cries of a dying Kin attracted the Attention of other Frost Phantoms. Among them, there were quite a few who had good relationships with the injured. They were confused by concern, abandoned Evasion, and chose to Aid their own Kin.
This was exactly what Cynder wanted. The Flame on her Body burned even more fiercely, like a Meteor smashing towards the Ground.
Truly like a Wolf entering a flock of sheep, Cynder wielded the Flame Greatsword and unrestrainedly vented her Desire for Slaughter. In just a few Seconds, she had already killed three Frost Phantoms. Just when she thought she would continue to kill all the Enemy in this way, an Accident happened.
"Clang!"
A translucent Ice Cone blocked Cynder's Sword. No matter how the rising Flame roasted it, it couldn't melt it. This greatly exceeded Cynder's expectations.
Slightly moving her Line of Sight, Cynder discovered that the Master of this Solid Ice was precisely that White Ice Specter. Although she had never seen this Race before, Cindy still read the Emotion of Anger from his eyes.
"I thought you were a Calm Leader?" Cynder teased.
"A qualified Leader cannot lose Reason because of the Death of his Subordinate."
"A qualified Creature would not be without Emotion when his Kin die." White Phantom said coldly. In the next Second, purple Energy burst out from his Body and all merged into the Solid Ice in his Hand.
"**Albedo's** immortal Weapon."
When **Albedo** was raising these Children, he didn't just teach them to use the Power they already possessed. As a Mage, wouldn't it be too wasteful not to teach his Children to use Magic?
Unfortunately, Celestial Energy Magic relied heavily on Talent. Frost Phantoms were not a Race with high Magic affinity. There were very few who could learn Celestial Energy on their own. White Phantom was one of them.
The surging Celestial Energy, under White Phantom's Command, poured into the Solid Ice. Coupled with **Albedo's** blessing, an ordinary Ice instantly turned into a Divine Weapon, also becoming one of White Phantom's Means to counterattack Cynder.
