Chapter 674: Snowy Land (2)
Even the most ignorant goblin Rui Jia knows what to do at this time. However, none of them would say the right choice. It's just because they know that once they run back at this time, then Bran will definitely take over. Then leave a few insignificant characters behind to coax them.
Rather than this, it is better to face it yourself.
Siri set her sights on Jenna, knowing that the Sea of Mana would no longer be a safe haven. Now, even she is able to move freely in the sea, and so can those potential adversaries.
Life and death may not matter, but only for oneself.
Jenna is also looking at Qian Rui and Rui Jia, if even she can't guarantee her absolute safety, then the two in front of her will only be more dangerous.
In Jenna's opinion, she is the one who truly belongs to the magic sea. From the moment she abandoned all flesh and decided to follow in Bran's footsteps, she had become a part of the Sea of Magic. So she believes that even if someone can find here, it will be difficult to pose a mortal threat to her.
Others may not realize it, but she knows it - this is her territory. As for the outside, the so-called home in Bran's mouth is nothing more than a landmark that makes it easy to get in and out and avoid getting lost.
Not everyone has the courage to give up their flesh and blood, and being able to do so speaks volumes. And it's not just flesh and blood that are abandoned, but also many instincts that lurk within them β such as the fear of life and death.
But she is still worried about the safety of her sisters.
In their eyes, they saw determination and longing in each other's eyes.
They never thought about the possibility of living in peace. Even if the monsters outside wanted to, they wouldn't agree. Someone has to say what happens in this place.
And this ββ, can only be them.
They want to be truly independent, to be truly independent. Just like Bran, you don't have to look at anyone's face, you don't have to care about anyone's criticism. They have to prove it with facts, in exchange for this right.
They need respect, not affection.
......
There are mirrors that fall from the void into this shattered, endless star sector, and are instantly submerged in ice and snow, and there are mirrors that slowly light up in the sea of magic, slowly revealing the world covered in ice and snow outside.
There are far more monsters than they imagined, and they have formed a delicate balance with each other. The magic is also in a delicate balance, shared by them.
However, balance is still not immune to occasional fights. Even if this fight is more like a fight, it is enough to expose too many characteristics and weaknesses.
They found that the cold that they were once proud of had completely lost its effect here. The negative effects of the cold are no longer apparent. It's just because the monsters here have the same power as them.
It is for this reason that the direct collision of the body has become the main means of these monsters. Almost all of their magic is used to strengthen their bodies in order to maintain an advantage in battle.
Huge size and thick skin are common traits of these monsters.
Magic is important here because it strengthens the body, and magic is not important here because no one is going to compete with you. They will use brute force to rush to the front and then hammer and bite each other.
This may be the way to go. It is difficult for latecomers to gain the upper hand in the competition of magic, and if it is only a single competition of magic, then there is almost no chance of winning.
When they saw this, they couldn't help but think of Bran, which was the other extreme. He will always find weaknesses in impossible places and set traps.
......
In the snowy region, Jena slowly condensed her figure, like a lazy cat, and walked gracefully towards the goal. It was a worm-like monster with elongated legs dotted around its sides.
"Stop! β
Warning-filled waves of mana passed by Jena, but they didn't stop her lazy steps.
"Strangers, or newcomers. I warn you, this is my territory. β
"Your?" Jana replied with disdain, "how long have you not seen the outside world? You set your eyes on each other, degenerating into primitive beasts in the battle.
You have long since changed from hunters to prey, and your former home has become someone else's hunting ground.
It's a terra nullius for a long time. You ββ, and they are just beasts living here. β
These words immediately angered the worm in front of it, but it did not attack recklessly. It may have degenerated into a beast, but its instincts have become sharper as a result.
As Jena got closer, it felt like it wasn't dealing with a living being, but a tributary of the source of magic in the sea. A hint of awe also aroused it, making it reluctant to act rashly.
At least it doesn't want to move until it really understands what the other party is trying to do.
"Aren't you the same? Even if you have a dream for a while, it will soon be worn out by time. If you can live longer, you will find that there are no dreams in this snowy land, only the chill that freezes everything.
From the moment you step in here and come to me, the ice has already begun.
This is my destiny, and of course yours. β
There was a pause in Jena's lazy steps, "What if I can give you hope?"
"Hope?" the worm let out a hoarse laugh, "βyou? I don't need vague hopes, much less unwarranted assurances, you can't tempt me."
In this world of ice and snow, I only believe in reality. β
Jena exhaled, like a smoke ring drifting towards the worm.
"Reality? There is always a need for someone or something to help others to understand it. Jenna sighed, "I've changed my mind to offer you the truest hope. β
With the words, the smoke ring finally hit the worm, but it didn't do anything. In fact, neither side thinks that it will work, and this is just a signal for a fight.
The worm leaped high and slapped it down. To its surprise, the other party didn't dodge. What made it even more unexpected was that it would shoot the other party in ashes in just one click.
Just when it was in great confusion, a mutation eruptedβa cold mist erupted from beneath its feet, trapping it in an instant. In the moment of being trapped, the world begins to twist.
Its eyes cannot see, its ears cannot hear, and even its feet become unreal. The perception of magic is still there, but the magic used for perception seems to have been cut and messed up into countless pieces, and the information fed back has become cluttered as a result.
A voice sounded softly in my ears, "You know? It is often not your own strong side that determines life and death. β
"Hmph, you're just trapping me, and there's nothing you can do about me. β
With that, it began to rush left and right.
"Perhaps. I've also thought about detonating my own magic and creating extreme cold. But I quickly realized that it would only make you feel good.
Many of the tools that I used to be proud of are simply not used here. Ice can't paralyze your flesh, and it can't make them vulnerable. Moreover, your bodies are too strong under the support of magic to make it fatal, even if I could hurt you.
You treat magic as simple food and stuff it into an already bloated body. But you know what? Magic shouldn't be used like that!"
"How do I use it, what the hell do you do?"
"βI, that is, magic!"
Jena's voice became a little sharper, and a wire appeared on the worm's back, oscillating at high speed, leaving a wound in its back.
"Is that all there is to it?" the worm's implicit mocking words were gone, and the wound had healed.
"Of course not. Forgot to tell you, I have helpers. It's true that I can't expand the wound into a fatal wound, but my helper can.
Not all monsters in the snowy region are like you, giving up hope. β
......
Rui Jia sat on Qian Rui's shoulder, shining the light in the mirror on the giant's face from a distance, causing the other party to raise his hand to cover it. This impudent act immediately provoked a counterattack, and huge ice cubes were thrown head-on.
A huge net was fleeting, cutting it into countless tiny pieces in the flakes of ice, scattering them on the ground.
"New here?"
The giant retracted his thigh, looked at the little dot standing out of thin air, and emphatically said, "This is my territory, you can find another place." β
The strange methods on the other side made it cautious, and some of the memories that had long been blurred became clear in an instant.
It smells the wind, and most of its opponents are known for their agility and agility. Even if the strength is low, it is not possible to shoot to death at once. If the other party hadn't shown that weird trick, it would definitely rush up and try to shoot a few more times.
Now, it needs to be calm.
"Get down on your knees and meet the new queen of this place. β
The brilliance flashed in front of his eyes again, causing it to burst into flames.
Qian Rui raised her hand to stop Rui Jia, who wanted to continue shouting, and explained slowly: "Get used to it, we were once the kings of the world. β
The giant then sighed with emotion, "Who isn't here?"
However, the words that followed interrupted its lamentation, and it immediately became angry.
"Today, we are gods looking down on the world. Kneel and meet your Queen."
After a brief moment of stunnedness, the giant roared and rushed over. It decided to teach this newcomer a lesson, even if it was a little injured, so that the other party had some scruples, and did not dare to speak freely.
It was greeted not by the strange net as expected, but by a huge silver shield. With another roar, it instantly smashed the giant shield to pieces, and pounced out with a crystal light flying in the sky.
However, it was already empty.
"I'm here. β
A voice sounded behind him, and after turning around in a hurry, he was greeted by countless mirrors, large and small.
"I'm here. β
Voices rang out at the same time in all directions. At some point, countless mirrors have surrounded it, forming a labyrinth with no end in sight......
"You can't trap me!"
After smashing one mirror after another, the giant roared unwillingly.
"I can't keep you trapped here, but my helper is coming. Not all monsters in the snowy region are as stubborn as you. β
As soon as he finished speaking, a huge worm pounced in the cold mist......
