Chapter 434: The Demon Shadow of the Ice City (Part II)

If it were ordinary ice, then Rhodes would not have been so careful. But the problem is that these ice layers can even block Lydia and Irene's attacks unscathed, which suddenly makes Rod more vigilant. Even in the Dragon Soul Continent, there are only a handful of people who can resist the attack of the archangel without any damage, and there is such a thing on the earth, which has to make Rhodes even more worried. But even so, they can only continue to walk, no matter what, these strange things in front of them seem to have no self-will, just pure ice.

Although the ice is very thick, it is quite pure and transparent, and even the hair of the people inside can be seen through the ice. They weren't wearing the ancient, skin-like costumes that Thomas and others had imagined. Instead, these men were dressed in rather ornate robes as well as beautifully carved armor, and they held swords, shields, and staves high in their hands. It looked as if it had been completely frozen in the middle of a fierce battle with something. If that's all there is to it, it's not particularly strange. But the problem is that, on the other side of them, there is no one.

A soldier in armor opened his mouth wide, raised his sword high, and held the shield in his hand to his chest, as if he was fighting some vicious monster. But in front of him, there was nothing but a blank ice crystal. Not only him, but even on the other side, a woman was holding her child tightly, turning her head to look ahead in horror, and desperately outstretching her right hand, as if she was helplessly defending herself -- but in front of her, there was nothing either.

These people should be the subordinates of the Void Dragon.

Rhodes carefully looked at the people in front of him who were frozen in it, and his mind was thinking quickly. As you can see from the scene here, it is clear that they were suddenly frozen in ice while they were fighting something. And you can see it. These people were completely unprepared for being frozen in ice, and they did not even perceive the danger coming, but concentrated on fighting their enemies. No, I'm afraid that until the end, these people don't even know what happened to them.

What is this?

Rod reached out and gently pressed the cold ice, then he made a gesture, and soon, the little mermaid quietly appeared in front of Rod's eyes again, and she reached out. A bitter cold wind blew towards the ice. But even with the power of the little mermaid, it could not have the slightest effect on the thick ice. Soon, the little mermaid withdrew her hand, looked at Rhodes with an aggrieved look, and shook her head. Looks. It seems that this is not just a matter of the elemental properties themselves, perhaps it is not ice at all that is displayed in front of everyone. It's just that it has the qualities of ice. Otherwise. Even if it is a little mermaid of this level, it is impossible to shake it, but as an elemental spirit of water, she should more or less feel the same elemental breath from above. But just now, the little mermaid told Rod unmistakably that he couldn't feel the breath of the water element on these ice cubes at all, which means that these things are not ice cubes at all. It's better to say that it's crystal. It's just that the cold air emanating from it makes Rhodes mistake it for ice.

"Do you know what this is?"

Rod asked his sister in a low voice as he walked forward, carefully examining the figures in the ice. And quickly. His sister's answer rang in his ears.

"No............ Brother, I don't know. But it can be seen that these things are obviously used to seal and imprison everything here, and to keep it from any interference from the outside world......... I think this should be Maribel's masterpiece. ”

"Huh?"

Hearing this, Rod was stunned.

"Didn't you say you didn't know what it was? How can you be sure that this was done by Maribel? Do you have an impression of this thing? ”

"No, brother, as I just said. This is supposed to be 'to imprison everything here and keep it from any outside interference'. It doesn't have a name, but that's why I think it's Maribel's masterpiece -- because she's a demon god who exists, and whatever she thinks exists, no matter how incredible, will exist. ”

“…………………”

Hearing his sister's answer, the corners of Rod's eyes twitched, according to his sister's meaning, that is, no matter how strange it is, as long as Maribel thinks it exists, it exists? Can this still be fun? Although Rhodes has long known that the Six Pillars Demon God is all against the sky, but it can be said that he is extremely vicious and mad to this extent. So if that's the case, if Maribel wants a weapon that can instantly kill the Dragon Soul Inheritor, can she really create such a thing and kill the Dragon Soul Inheritor in one hit?

"That's not the case, brother, no matter what, the dragon soul inheritor is also the existence of inheriting the essence of the dragon power of creation, although it is not as great as the power obtained by reincarnation like my brother, but it will take a lot of effort."

Well......... It's going to take a bit of effort......... Well............... Well, at least it takes a bit of effort, doesn't it?

But......... What exactly are they fighting against? Could it be the monsters who attacked Rhodes before? Thinking of this, Rod frowned, thought carefully for a moment, and then shook his head. This should be unlikely, although I don't know how high the strength of these people is, but it seems that everyone at least has more or less legendary level combat power, those monsters are not their opponents at all, and since the Void Dragon will send them in the first place, it means that the strength of these people can stand the test. At least it won't be the kind of soft-footed shrimp that kneels when it doesn't work, and naturally it can't be killed by the kind of dinosaurs that look scary but don't have much ability in fact...............

So, what exactly is the reason for this? What are they fighting against?

"Let's move on, be careful."

Thinking of this, Rod withdrew his thoughts, and he whispered to Lydia and Irene, and then his eyes swept to the left and right. Soon, Irene and Lydia were divided into two sides of the line. Vigilantly watching. They're not stupid either, and since the ice here can't hurt even Lydia's sword, if there are monsters like before, it might be even more difficult, so it's necessary to maintain a certain level of vigilance.

In this way, the crowd, led by Rod, walked towards the huge pyramid-shaped building in the center of the square. I don't know if there's anything I need there, but at least for now, it seems to be the most striking place in this square, and maybe Rhodes and the others can get some clues here.

Thomas and the others have now completely lost their command. But he didn't feel angry at all, and at the moment he was clenching his fists excitedly and talking to his peers.

"You see, I knew it, I knew it was going to be like this! My judgment was correct!! ”

"What are you talking about? Thomas? ”

The fat man who followed Thomas snorted and snorted his belly. Barely trying to catch up with him, he asked confusedly.

"Remember? Before, when we were digging up the first four ruins. We have been on this planet before human beings existed. A brand new, very high civilization was born, and a consensus was reached. But we can't find any evidence of their existence after that, as if they only existed in that era! It's a very strange thing, you know what I mean? ”

"What's so strange about that? After all, it was the late Cretaceous period, and after that, the dinosaurs perished, so those people also perished. Isn't that normal? ”

"No, no, no, not at all, you see, this civilization has a completely different culture than we do. High level of civilization. And since they were able to bury the Apocalypse Slate on the moon, it means that they have long had the ability to travel away from Earth. Even if those dinosaurs will go extinct, it doesn't mean that these people will be the same. I thought they had left Earth, but it's clear they weren't! But it has been silently hidden in the earth~!! Saying this, Thomas looked at the back of Rhodes in front of him with bright eyes, as if he had seen some precious cultural relic.

"These people use techniques that are completely different from ours, so maybe they are the remnants of that civilization -- no, not only. If this is the case, then the similar images of gods in the myths and legends of various countries on the earth can also be explained!! These so-called gods must be the remnants of this previous civilization! Look at them, the ability to manipulate the flames freely, the little girl's ability to use abilities similar to the Holy Light, isn't it all connected to the unbelievable stories of myths and legends? That's right, these people must have been hiding in the midst of the new age of humanity in their own unique identity, guiding us! It is no wonder that in the earliest days, although there was no way for humans to migrate, the images in the myths and stories that circulated in them were so similar. They have different cultures, but they have similar descriptions, and it must be because they have seen these remnants with their own eyes and received their blessings! ”

That's a real.

Although Thomas had lowered his voice as carefully as possible, ordinary people like them had no secrets in front of a legendary powerhouse like Rhodes. Hearing Thomas's words, the corners of Rod's eyes twitched, he didn't expect that things could be explained like this. Originally, Rhodes was still struggling with how to hide the identities of himself and others, and to be able to get a reasonable explanation for the governments. But now...............

Can you still play like this? Thinking of this, Rhodes' eyes rolled, and he originally planned to kill Thomas here to keep it a secret. But now it seems that if they let them out alive, it may be in their own interests. After all, Thomas's rhetoric is true, and it does sound like that. He himself is an expert in this area, if this is the case, maybe with the help of this guy's mouth, he can still be able to mix this matter perfectly?

If that's the case, then Rod will be reluctant to kill them.........

And at this moment, suddenly Rod turned around violently, and then the sword light in his hand flashed, and it shot at Thomas quickly.

Thomas, who was talking to his colleagues, was completely unaware of the danger that was coming, when he realized that something was wrong. The cold light had already come to his side, which immediately made Thomas frightened, and at that moment, he felt as if he was a big fat pig on the slaughtering table, and he watched the blade of the flickering cold light stab like this, and it only took a second to disembowel himself.

But the next moment, the cold wind just brushed by Thomas and flew backwards. And almost at the same time, screams rang out.

"............!!"

The crowd hurriedly looked back. I saw a soldier entangled in snow-white spider silk fall heavily to the ground like this. Not far above him, a severed piece of spider silk was rapidly retracting upward. It was clear that just now, a spider silk wrapped around the hapless soldier and tried to drag him away. But Rhodes was also quick to react. Almost at the same time as the spider silk attacked, he hurriedly turned around and slashed out with a sword. Cut off the spider silk completely. At the same time, he saved the hapless soldier from the clutches of death.

"Are you alright, cheer up, what the hell is ........."

Seeing this scene, the captain of the leader also hurriedly rushed forward, ripped off the spider silk wrapped around the soldier's body three times and divided five by two, and then he raised the muzzle of his gun. One side looks up. Looking towards the place where the spider silk shot out, and immediately after, the well-trained soldier's face suddenly turned pale.

"Damn, what the hell is this!!"

Only see this moment. Around everyone, six huge monsters hung on the spider silk and flew down, enveloping Rhodes and his party. Their lower body is no different from that of spiders, except that it is more than two meters long, and the upper body is completely different -- it looks like a strange hybrid of dinosaurs evolving into humans, their heads held high, their two fishy yellow eyes radiating a strange brilliance, and their front paws, which should have been useless, have become as powerful as human arms. Not only that, but each of these monsters is crystal clear throughout, and can even see the various organs that are moving inside through the outside, and this alone is enough to make people stand upside down.

"Do it! Bubbles, protect the others! ”

Soon, as the de facto "leader", Rhodes immediately gave an order, and his order was equivalent to "hinting" to Little Bubblegum that his plan to kill Thomas and his party was temporarily shelved. But now little bubblegum is not in the mood to trouble that nerd again, she is not a fool, and after seeing that the crystal here can't even hurt Lydia's sword in the slightest, she naturally raised her vigilance. After all, players are very clear that one side of the water and soil raises the other side of the monster. Each monster in a unique environment is unique in its own way. And the crystal here can't even hurt Lydia's sword, in case of some accidents, it will be trouble!

So the two bubbles did not hesitate at this moment, and immediately stretched out their hands, and soon, with the movements of the two, layers of protection quickly unfolded, surrounding everyone. And seeing this layer of protection, those ordinary people were also relieved, although they didn't know what this was, but at least just now, its protective ability was still very effective. The soldiers relaxed a lot, and they hurriedly gathered in a circle, raising their guns and pointing at the monsters. They know their own affairs, and although they are now holding high-tech weapons in their hands, they are far less powerful than the long swords in the hands of Rhodes and others, so as long as they quietly do their own work and don't cause trouble to the other party, they have to say that they are really still on the road professionally.

And just as the little bubblegum was putting on a defense, I saw that the six weird crystal spiders also had big mouths, and then spider silk suddenly erupted from it, hitting the protective barrier in front of them.

"Boom, boom!!"

It was supposed to be soft spider silk, but when it hit the soul barrier, it exploded like a hard weapon and made a dull sound. Even the glow on the protective barrier, which was originally shining with golden light, suddenly dimmed a little. And seeing this scene, the little bubble gum was naturally surprised.

"Captain, the other party is at least the level of the peak of the legend!"

"I see!"

Hearing the reminder of the little bubble gum, Rod was also in his heart, and he guessed that the monster here might not be easy to deal with. It's just that I didn't expect the difficulty to increase so much all of a sudden. If it were just him, the canary, and the little bubblegum, maybe they would really have to be in a hurry for a while. After all, the fire wind that the canary is best at is greatly reduced in this cold and icy environment, and the little bubble gum has to focus on defense. If you deal with these eight-headed monsters, I'm afraid it's really a problem. But now...............

"Highness Lydia, Highness Irene, let's split up and kill them once and for all!!"

As Rod spoke, a black light flashed in his hand, and then three petite figures emerged from it, Greyhill, Mardaras, and Celestina, each of whom shook their bodies and pounced towards the three-headed crystal spider. At the same time, Rhodes also held the long sword in his hand, and together with Lydia and Irene, pounced on the remaining three spiders. And sensing the attack of Rod and others, these crystal spiders suddenly roared angrily, and then their bodies shook, their big mouths opened, and suddenly, one after another overwhelming cobwebs erupted from their air, heading towards Rod and the others!
