Chapter 0241: In front of the altar
On the chaotic battlefield, the voice of the ice phoenix was not loud but penetrated into everyone's ears. Most people feel a tightening of their hearts, followed by a relaxation, and this curse is not directed at them. But as the target of the curse, Engedri's heart was tense but he couldn't let go, and he panicked.
The curse of the Ice Phoenix was not issued casually. It ignored defenses like Zhou Qingfeng's spiritual power attack, but it was even more weird. Attacks don't even require any contact with the target, as long as you find a weak spot in the enemy.
Engedri's weakness was that he was a little annoyed that he was still too careless at the moment, and he didn't expect that the enemy still had a strong ambush, so that he was caught by the opponent. The ice phoenix magnified this frustration a hundredfold.
From frustration to panic, and even self-denial, losing normal judgment ability. As the commander, Engodi was flustered, and was cut off from the military formation with his subordinates in an instant. The more than sixty spear-wielding Jianzhou elites suddenly ceased to be a whole, and they were disintegrated when they needed leadership and coordination the most.
The huge ice lizard struck with four thick legs, and it opened its mouth wide, exhaling and spewing out cold air. It was followed by a direct impact from the head. The spears directly opposite were instantly covered with frost, and they broke with a few snaps against the hard forehead of the ice lizard.
Along with the cracked arms that held the spears, the cold breath that spewed out made them brittle and hard in an instant. There were still traces of muscle fibers hanging from the broken arm, and the white bone slag mixed with the flesh and blood frozen into ice slag was bubbling with a white breath.
The owners of the arms are all warriors who have been fighting all year round, but they can only watch themselves frozen alive by the cold breath of the ice lizard, watch the arm break, and watch the giant ice lizard crash into it.
The sound of crackling sounded loudly, and after losing the coordinated defense provided by the military formation, the four or five Jianzhou elites in the front row were immediately killed by the ice lizard. And the monster's breath was still spreading, freezing the spear queue that was already frozen by the ice arrows even more stiff, making it difficult to fight back.
The spear army formation of more than sixty people was broken up with one move.
The giant ice lizard began to twist its body, relying on its huge size and solid ice armor to continue to stir up the defense of the Jianzhou Department. And after the ice lizard, hordes of skeletal ice demons rushed forward with heavy steps.
These ice demons are more than two meters tall, with huge strength and thick defenses, but they are slow. But when they camouflaged themselves with the light and shadow of the ice phoenix, they immediately began to exert their huge destructive power. Their fists are really as big as a sand bowl, and a single punch can dent a person's chest.
Paralyzing, deceiving, and raiding, Zhou Qingfeng and Binghuang teamed up to create a terrible killing. The Jianzhou infantry formation, which was waiting for the battle, obviously had an overall quality, but it was facing a situation of falling apart in a moment.
Saha, who was originally killed, was about to spurt blood from his eyes with remorse, and the number of people in the infantry formation was not large, and he took ten more. It was the departure of these ten people that created a great opportunity for the Ice Phoenix's surprise attack.
Sakhalian immediately shouted in a furious manner, striding in an instant, kicking his legs and leaping. He aimed at the ice phoenix standing on the ice lizard, and decided that this seemingly weak little creature must be the culprit of the raid.
But just as Saha was in mid-air, a light suddenly shot out of the darkness. The light shrouded Sakharen directly, as if he had been placed in a stagnant lattice.
It was the ray emitted by the one-eyed head of the 'dog meat' that directly froze Sahar for a second. Although the target's strength was much stronger than that of 'Dog Meat', it only affected for such a second, but this second made Binghuang calmly speak: "I curse this person, and I am furious. β
This is to add fuel to the fire of Sakhalian, who was already angry. Anger overshadowed the sanity of this Jianzhou general in an instant, multiplied his strength, but also made him a completely martial madman who could only fight alone and had no time for him.
After the immobilization was lifted, Sakhalian immediately fell, and the axe smashed an ice demon that was close to him in one round, but soon two more ice demons attacked him from the left and right. As his red eyes picked up the axe again, a bolt of light swooped through the darkness and struck him in the chest.
"Too weak, too weak, you can't shoot me." Sakhalian screamed and flew, and the blades of his axes flew up. His protective aura blocked this light arrow, but the light arrow with light and ice spiritual power soaked his body.
Bolts of light continued to shoot from the darkness, and these arrows of light slowly froze Saharen in place. And with these arrows of light, the sound of horses' hooves began to sound in the darkness. A black blade seemed to slash out slowly and quickly, without warning.
Sakharen was constantly splitting the ice demons that were rushing in front of him into pieces, and he had no reason to see the situation in front of him. By the time the omen of death finally woke him up, the cavalry of the wall-charging cavalry had reached him.
The black blade of spiritual power condensed slashed into Saharen's chest without hindrance, and although the protective qi neutralized most of the heavy blow, he himself was still directly slashed away. Zhou Qingfeng, who led the team, followed closely, jumped and raised his sword, viciously slashing Sakhalian from the air to the ground, this knife gathered the power of all the frost riders in the cavalry array, and directly slashed Sakhalian into vomiting blood and half dead.
Thinking about the hard wall charge that this guy with an axe once contemptuously resisted, Zhou Qingfeng showed no mercy to him. The moment this guy fell to the ground, countless horses' hooves trampled him like a sandbag.
The fallen Sakharen had nowhere to draw on his strength, even though he was strong and strong, and it was painful to be trampled on a dozen hooves in a row. He didn't even have an axe to fall without a trace, and he used all his spiritual power to burst out and shake away a few bone war horses before he crashed out of the range of the riding formation.
Barely out of the predicament, Sakhalian spat out a mouthful of blood. He saw that Zhou Qingfeng was lining up with a dense cavalry to attack the Jianzhou queue that had lost the protection of the military formation, and immediately shouted: "Han boy, come and hit me again." I can smash all of you waste cavalry. β
Dozens or hundreds of Frost Riders were like a rolling torrent, crushing the enemies who stood in their way. The cavalry team with insufficient individual strength always fought more and less, and after pulling up the speed, they launched an attack. Zhou Qingfeng heard Saharen's call to invite battle, but he didn't bother to pay attention to it.
Due to the darkness of the battlefield, a small number of campfires could not provide sufficient illumination. The elite of Jianzhou who lost the organization often lost the information of their companions, and they were easily dispersed by Zhou Qingfeng's cavalry. Once scattered, they quickly found themselves in a dangerous situation of fighting aloneβnot every elite of the states was as strong as Sakhalian and could survive an attack by an entire cavalry.
Zhou Qingfeng's cavalry team brought its strength to the extreme. Although everyone can't see the battlefield clearly, there are many others, and everyone's information is gathered here, at least the trouble of identifying friend and foe disappears. As soon as he found a lone enemy, he would immediately organize a team of ten or twenty horsemen to rush over and kill him.
The sound of hooves and screams in the darkness from time to time is always soothing, and the dark environment makes it impossible for people to obtain enough information, and even lose their normal judgment. But the Jianzhou elite began to lose confidence in fighting, and the real collapse began to come.
"Forehead attached, forehead attached." In a panic, he shouted close to Sakhalian, and the white-haired Borzi ran out of the darkness with a lit dry bone at great risk, "Efu, don't be in a daze, go quickly." The formation is broken, and we have to retreat towards the ladder, reorganize the team, and go to the Five Baylors. β
The Ice Phoenix's curse was very effective, and it instantly turned the originally well-organized Jianzhou infantry formation into a plate of scattered sand. Sakhalian was wounded at the moment, and he took Borzi's dry torch and held it high, shouting his name. Many Jianzhou elites who lacked the backbone immediately converged on him. Everyone seemed to be experiencing a great calamity, and they were in a state of panic.
Not far away, the huge ice lizard is fighting with more than a dozen Jianzhou elites. The monster may seem clumsy, but it is very agile when it writhes on all fours. Without the coordination of the military formation, almost no one on the scene is its opponent.
"What about Ngedri? Where are the others? After erecting a few torches, Saharen was helped back by Borzi. They tried to reorganize their defenses along the ladder passage leading to the high platform, but most of their men were scattered, and they were defeated by the outnumbered ice monsters who were not afraid of death.
Sakhalian asked Ngoderi, who was worse than him. After being cursed by the ice phoenix and flustered, he began to make mistakes one after another. In the face of the ice lizard's powerful attack, he did not organize people to block it, but took the lead to lead people back. Yang Jian was sent by him to inform Mang Gurtai, but Yang Jian took such an unlucky errand and was scolded back.
The form on the battlefield has been irreversible, and the two Jianzhou Foreheads have fallen into an absolute disadvantage in the hands of the people. And their opponents did not hesitate to consume the troops in their hands to advance to the battle line, forcing the two to retreat step by step, directly retreating over the ladder, and putting Binghuang and Zhou Qingfeng on the high platform.
At this moment, Mang Gurtai was also distracted by this bad situation. The original more than 60 Jianzhou elites only gathered more than 20 in the chaos, and the other casualties were not many, but most of them disappeared in the chaos. And the Ice Phoenix who came up was more than one hundred and fifty men, although they were not of high rank, but they were also a difficult force after the formation.
Mang Gurtai couldn't tolerate such a defeat, he couldn't care about looking at Guo Budo anymore, turned around and jumped in the air, and pounced from the direction of the altar without saying a word. He saw that Binghuang and Zhou Qingfeng's own strength was not high, and he was determined to cut through the chaos quickly, fight quickly, and kill the two directly, or come back immediately and continue to stare at Guo Budo to obtain the soil.
Mang Gultai's cultivation was far higher than that of Engedri and Saharen, and he appeared above the ice phoenix's head in a breath of a volley. He stared at the little phoenix like a child below, and the corners of his mouth were already cracked with a cruel smile. He used his far beyond cultivation to build an invisible cage, preventing the prey from having the slightest possibility of escaping.
But just as Manggul Muay Thai was about to hit the Ice Phoenix, the Ice Phoenix itself disintegrated first. Mang Gurtai himself was taken aback, and said secretly: "Illusion." The ice lizard that had been carrying the ice phoenix jumped up on all fours, and opened its mouth to breathe a cold ice.
Mang Gultai only punched the breath away, and he once again focused his eyes to find out the true location of the ice phoenix, and the ice lizard exploded directly.
Thousands of ice flowers exploded, and the high platform immediately became covered in silver, and the cold was biting. Everyone stiffened, and the pores all over their bodies shrank. Although this explosion did not hurt Gurtai, it froze him solidly, and his body was like a hockey puck.
The ice lizard abandoned the ice ball that it had created to look sturdy, but it only took less than half a second to explode violently. Mang Gurtai stretched out his limbs, floating in the air and shouted proudly: "What can I hurt if I engage in such a little trick?" If you dare to be the enemy of my Dajin, you are seeking death. β
The domineering words shocked the audience, and everyone's eyes were scanning the opponent who dared to stand up and challenge. At this time, there was nothing near the high platform except for ice and snow everywhere, and it was very deserted and empty.
Mang Gurtai was glancing angrily, but he heard a pure child's voice shouting at the same time as he shouted: "I take back my curse and let Guo Jiao wake up." β
Mang Gurtai immediately turned around, just in time to see Guo Budo coming out of the light of the high platform. The latter sneered at a small ball of mud that was constantly changing, "I've got the soil." β
For a while, several voices rang out in the audience at the same time.
Mang Gurtai shouted to the two old shamans guarding Guo Jiao, "Catch Guo Budo's daughter." β
Guo Budo also looked at his daughter, stomped his foot and said in a deep voice: "Jiao'er, wake up." Hundreds of birds and phoenixes. β
The ice phoenix said a shrill voice in the darkness: "Give me the rest, or I'll put your daughter to sleep again." β
Finally, another voice shouted, "Jia Gang, do it quickly." β
