Chapter 288: Take Control of the Whole
Between Mio and No. 33, Rafe thought quickly and raised his arrow to aim at Mio, the big cat was extremely nimble, but at least better than spatial mobility.
Mio moved quickly, like a fluffy lightning bolt refracting from tree to tree, so fast that she couldn't even see her demeanor.
Seeing the power of Rafi's arrows, Mio deliberately jumped between the branches in an irregular way, and she felt that Rafe could not have shot her.
However, Miao underestimated Rafaite, Rafaite's kung fu of shooting fish at the beach for so many years was not in vain, and the swimming fish often carried out seemingly irregular swimming, but in fact, the direction of their swimming is still regular, the waves, the direction of the wind, the direction of the reef, and even the shadow of a seabird flying by in the air will affect the direction of swimming the fish choose.
The same goes for Mio, who thinks she is moving irregularly, but she chooses to jump from branch to branch, which in itself is a trail to follow.
Rafael's arrow moves with Mio...... No, it looks more like Miao is moving with Rafael's arrow, and Rafe's aim is a certain amount of advance, and she is not aiming at Mio, but at the tree that Miao is about to jump.
It is true that there are many trees in the woods, but if Mio is standing on a south-facing branch, she will have to choose the direction of her next jump from the south, west, and east directions, the north direction is blocked by the trunk, and there may not be suitable trees in each of the other three directions, which makes Rafe further narrow the prediction.
For.
Rafe let go of the arrow.
At the same time as the arrow was fired, Miao jumped and landed on the tree where the arrow flew.
"Meow?"
Mio sensed danger in the air, and she swerved to dodge the arrow, which was powerful but still a point, not a face, as long as she avoided its edge and didn't get shot directly.
Mio's body is soft and flexible, not under the pear, and after turning into a cat, she surpasses the pear, her whole body is as soft as a bone, she rolls in the air, confident that she can dodge the arrow.
That's right, Mio was able to dodge this arrow, because this arrow was not intended to shoot her, Rafe's goal was only to destroy Mio's foothold, and the real killer was the next arrow.
Rafe shot the second arrow without pausing, but drew the third arrow, put it on the string, and released the arrow.
The second arrow shattered the tree, and Mio had nowhere to borrow his strength in the air, and only then did he understand Rafe's intentions, but it was too late, even if he was replaced by another less powerful archer, Mio could not dodge the third arrow.
"Woo~ I don't want to die yet!"
Miao dances in the air, but she can't defy the laws of physics, and unless she grows a pair of wings, she will be in danger of blood.
For.
The third arrow is fired.
"Mio!" exclaimed No. 33, she and Mio didn't usually talk much, and the two chased each other when they met, but this is also some kind of friendship, let alone a person, even if it is a cat, if they play together often, they will have feelings somewhat.
No. 33 couldn't help, she wasn't good at long-range attacks, she didn't have a lot of weapons with her, and Rafe's arrows were too fast, and none of her weapons could stop this arrow.
At this critical juncture-
Boom!
The three of them saw a flash of ice, and more than a dozen ice crystals fell from the sky and smashed into the woods between Miao and Rafe.
One of the ice crystals was right in front of the third arrow, and a white mist of ice crystals burst out at the point of the arrow, and then quickly spread out spiderweb-like cracks around the point of impact, and finally the entire ice crystal shattered into slag along these cracks - the whole process was instantaneous.
The arrow shattered the ice crystals and continued to fly, but with a significant loss of momentum and speed, as ice crystals were much stronger than trees.
"Aurora!"
"Woo~ Damn! I was saved by Olara!"
When Miao and No. 33 saw the fall of the ice crystals, they immediately understood that it was support from Aurora, but Aurora's ice crystals were always spindle-shaped, with sharp stomachs bulging at both ends, but they were not completely symmetrical, more like a tear, thicker and thinner at the bottom, so as to maintain stability when falling in the air.
At this time, more than a dozen ice crystals fell in shape, the shape is relatively rough, almost a dozen irregular large ice blocks, the volume is larger, the interior is hollow, it seems that Aurora was condensed in a hurry, and it is too late to do it so carefully, after all, saving people is like fighting fire, and the internal hollow can make the volume expand, and there is a greater chance to block the arrows.
The arrow shattered an ice crystal, the kinetic energy was greatly lost, and the direction was also shifted, although the aftermath was still there, but it could no longer hit Mio.
What's even more beneficial to Miao and 33 is that the hollow ice blocks are smashed after falling to the ground, and the ice blocks formed by water and carbon dioxide solidification begin to melt and sublimate rapidly, absorbing a large amount of heat near the ground, rising bursts of white mist, invisibly providing them with cover.
Mio and No. 33 weave their way through the fog, outflanking Rafe from left and right.
Farther away, on a slightly higher ground, Aurora stood on the horizontal branch of a large tree, holding the trunk of the tree with one hand to stabilize her body, and holding binoculars with the other to observe the battlefield.
The woods were dense, and Aurora could only see the general situation, and if it weren't for Rafe's first two arrows being exposed, she wouldn't have had time to create ice crystals to block the third arrow.
She had a chance to create a hail rain to smash at the archers, or create large ice crystals to block the arrows, and she chose between hurting enemies and rescuing her teammates, even if that teammate was Mio, who had been looking for her all day.
She wasn't impulsive, or wanted to use this to repair relations with Mio or anything like that, she just made a judgment in a state of absolute calm, she could only determine the approximate location of the archer in the woods, the hail rain might not hit the archer, but if she left it alone, she would lose a teammate, and as long as her teammates were safe and sound, she would be able to get this archer as soon as reinforcements arrived, or when Miao and No. 33 managed to get close.
Aurora really still likes this state the most, looking at the overall situation from a distance to ensure her own safety, the hail rain points wherever she hits, so that she has a full sense of control over the situation on the battlefield, and the last time she used her own short to fight the enemy's strength, when facing the enemy at close range, she completely lost her usual calm, and her mental attitude was so bad that it was not like her.
After rescuing Mio, she was finally free to deal with the archer, and she was so engrossed in sensing the air above, there was no shortage of water vapor over the trees, but the amount of carbon dioxide was relatively low due to photosynthesis.
It all starts with a speck of dust floating high in the air, the freezing point of the water is higher, it is easier to solidify, and the water vapor adheres to the dust and condenses into a Xiaoice crystal.
The Xiaoice crystal began to fall, and during the fall, it continued to absorb the water vapor it encountered, forming larger and larger ice blocks like a snowball.
However, Aurora immediately noticed that No. 33 and Miao were already very close to the archer, and if the hail rain fell, she was afraid that the jade would be burned, so she interrupted the condensation process in time, cutting off the induction with the ice, and the ice became ordinary ice, and when it was close to the warm ground, it began to melt, and finally fell to the ground like an ordinary hailstone.
The ice crystals condensed by carbon dioxide evaporate faster once they lose their sense and evaporate faster, sublimating from dry ice to invisible gas before they fall to the ground.
Unless the archer distanced herself again, she couldn't help on the side of No. 33 and Mio, Aurora glanced quickly at the direction of 10 o'clock, which was supposed to be the location where Chen Yiyi and Layla met, but it had been so calm that it was confusingly calm.
She knew the power of Layla's whip, once it was cast, it was like rolling spring thunder, as long as it started, it couldn't be so quiet.
Could it be that Chen Yiyi and the others are fighting with Layla? Salute first and then soldier?
Aurora thought about it, Chen Yiyi, Xiao Sui and Qianyang, none of these three seem to be good at mouth guns, if you really want to fight mouth guns, you must not be able to say that Layla is clever and talking.
So what's going on over there? What's going on?
Whoa, whoa, whoa—
Farther away, at 1 o'clock, patches of trees were fan-shaped and broken, and that side could be said to be the main battlefield, Jiang Chanji and Kali had fallen into a fierce battle.
From time to time, red figures flashed among the trees, and golden sword light rose into the sky, destroying and decaying like a meat grinder.
At the beginning of the battle, Aurora heard the screaming sound of Jiang Chanji's bone bow, so he sent hail rain to Jiang Chanji's location to tell her in advance, and he discussed with her in advance, and at the beginning of the battle, he used the screaming bone bow to attract Kali's attention and let her use the hail rain to sneak attack to see if she could take advantage.
Seeing that the hail rain had touched the height of the canopy when it approached the ground, several golden rays of light suddenly rose from the ground, and all the ice crystals that the golden light touched turned into ice chips, and the other ice crystals that did not touch the golden light fell to the ground, but obviously did not hurt Kali.
Seeing this scene, Aurora was stunned for a moment, she didn't know how heavy each ice crystal she condensed, because after falling to the ground, it either shattered or began to melt, but there should be one or twenty kilograms of ice crystals, such a heavy ice crystal plus the speed of falling from the sky, assuming that a ten-kilogram ice crystal fell from a thousand meters in the air, the impact force when it landed was equivalent to the kinetic energy of a 10-ton truck at a speed of 50 kilometers per hour.
In other words, a single knife can easily brake a moving truck, turning it from moving to stationary.
With such a knife, she slashed several times in an instant, each of which caused an ice crystal to evaporate.
It's not the same level of strength as Aurora at all!
Jiang Chanji is facing such a terrifying enemy?
Aurora shuddered.
Later, the sound of the screaming bone bow no longer sounded, she understood that Jiang Chanji and Jiali had entered a state of hand-to-hand combat, and at this time she could no longer make a move, otherwise she might accidentally injure Jiang Chanji, she could only suppress the uneasiness in her heart, and it happened that No. 33 and Mio's side were also in crisis, and she turned to support them.
Now 33 and Miao are using the white mist formed by the evaporation of ice crystals to quickly approach Rafe.
Rafe's inevitable arrow was intercepted by ice crystals falling from the sky, and she was about to shoot a fourth arrow, but she saw that the mist ahead of her blocked her vision.
In this case, unless she has clairvoyance, or is equipped with a military thermal imager, the situation is very unfavorable for her.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Rafe knew that the other party was prepared, and she and the goddess of Jiali seemed to have fallen into a trap, and the most important thing was that she didn't see Jiang Chanji, which means that Jiang Chanji must have gone to find the goddess of Jiali.
Rafe knew very well that the goddess of Jiali came to her in order to break the immortal body of Jiang Chanji, and the goddess of Jiali said that only her arrows had this ability, according to this statement, when the goddess of Jiali faced Jiang Chanji, she could not hurt Jiang Chanji.
So she decided to retreat and retreat to the side of the goddess of Kali, on the one hand, to leave this battlefield that was not good for her, and on the other hand, she planned to join up with the goddess of Kali, and the two would exchange opponents, and she would deal with Jiang Chanji.
Aurora noticed the movement on the battlefield, and the archers intended to join Kali, which Aurora did not want to see, otherwise the archers and Kali would be far away and close, and the tacit cooperation would be almost invulnerable.
So, Aurora summoned the hail rain again.
When striking the enemy, the hail rain is distributed in a circular pattern to cover the largest area as much as possible, and when used to block it, she chooses to have the ice crystals line up in a column and poke between Rafe and Kali like an iron fence to warn Rafe that this path is impassable.
Aurora was cautious in choosing the position of Hailstorm, as she didn't know where Spike's team was at the moment, but it certainly wouldn't be on the line between Kali and Rafa's position.
Mio is faster than Rafay, and No. 33 is not that fast, but her position is very confusing, moving left and right, moving forward and backward, erratic, and using phantoms to confuse enemies.
Seeing that Rafe was about to be overtaken, she had to shoot a fourth and fifth arrow behind her in succession to slow them down, but it only lasted a few seconds.
Why? Why are there so many enemies?
Rafe was panicked, she had never experienced this encounter, she felt that there were enemies everywhere, and only by meeting with the goddess Kali as soon as possible would she have the backbone.
Brush Brush Brush –
A row of spindle-shaped ice crystals were inserted vertically into the soil a dozen steps in front of her, and some of the ice crystals did not penetrate the soil, but just stuck into the tree, and the trunk of the tree instantly swelled in a circle, forcing the tree fragments to crack.
Rafe was so frightened that if she had run a little faster, an ice crystal might have pierced through her head and thrust her into the popular local kebab......
This row of ice crystals formed a fence thirty or forty meters long, and it stretched in front of Rafe.
"Huh~ I've finally caught up, now look where you're going!"
Spikelet's figure appeared on Rafe's side, and behind a tree next to Spikelet, Chiao's head poked out.
Spik glanced at the melting ice crystals and secretly thanked Aurora for bringing her ammunition.
Aurora took a few breaths and wiped the beads of sweat from her forehead, she never summoned hail rain temporarily, because it takes time for ice crystals to fall, she has always been a prejudgment, and no matter how accurate the prediction is, there will be misjudgments, and if there is a misjudgment, she will cancel the ability halfway, so as not to accidentally injure her teammates, so her ability is consumed very quickly.
