Before the steel of the sword could reach the ground, the Corruptor had unloaded his shield against his chest and rushed towards Lucina.

Using the ice energy in her hand, Lucina quickly built a mana model of cryotherapy in her mind.

Pushing out the ball of light in her hand, which had turned from ice blue to frost white, the moment it touched the Corruptor's chest, Lucina manipulated the mana net in her body, causing it to burst.

The Corruptor's body was immediately frozen by a layer of white ice spreading from his chest, and he froze in place. He still retains the movement of the charge with his shield raised.

However, just as Lucina channeled her mana to unleash the Ice Shattering Technique to completely eliminate the enemy, the white ice that froze the Corruptor suddenly shattered. A white mist-like chill spread around her, and Lucina retreated in shock.

Is this the kind of chill that is written on paper...... Aya, who was extremely tolerant of temperature, felt a trace of cold spreading from her internal organs.

Removing the guidance of the Ice Shattering Technique, Lucina quickly transformed the spell model and built a wall of ice to block the stabbing sword.

"Stand back, Lusa!" Lucina shuddered as she felt her heart chill, "Prepare your weapons...... The liquid bullets and steam tubes you bought that day are well attached to each gun, right? I remember your gun has been out of ammunition for a long time. ”

A little trembling, Lusha nodded and removed the steam gun from her waist.

Lusha's weapons are too lethal against heavy armor...... Lucina kept backing away, keeping her distance from the ice wall.

The Corruptor just stood silently in front of the ice wall, with no intention of getting around. It was as if he knew the duration of the ice wall was coming soon. In order not to waste the existing ice element, Lucina channeled her mana before it shattered and disintegrated, and built a new spell model to convert it.

Seizing the moment the ice wall shattered, Lucina directed the ice shards to stab at the Corruptor. However, the enemy did not panic and raised their shields to resist.

Ice shards shattered in front of the armor and shield, and the Corruptor held a shield-raising stance, lowering his body and rushing towards Lucina.

Sure enough, the flight distance is too close and the kinetic energy is insufficient...... Lucina hurriedly cast a spell quickly, gathering ice energy.

Partial freezing is more convenient to enhance the effectiveness of freezing...... Condensed with ice energy, Aya pressed it to the ground.

Nervously calculating the speed of the enemy, Lucina activated the spell that had been released. An ice crystal exploded at the Corruptor's feet, freezing his feet. With his feet suddenly frozen, the soldier in heavy armor fell forward. Holding the inertia of the body with his sword, the Corruptor roared loudly in anger.

And that's it...... Lucina tacitly handed over the rest of the work to her sister.

After the steam burst into a "stabbing" sound, the Corruptor who didn't have time to protect his head with his shield shuddered. As the Freeze was undone, the Corruptor collapsed to the ground, his sword scattered around him.

Relieved, Lucina slumped in the chair next to her and looked at Lusa, who was still holding her pistol: the steam pistol had a deheater installed, so the steam from the muzzle had cooled.

"I haven't practiced for so long, and my marksmanship is still so accurate......" Looking at the Corruptor with only one glowing eye, Lucina wasted no time in praising her sister: the Corruptor was dressed in heavy armor, his heavy helmet was set with visor, and only two eyes were left with small holes. Due to the extremely low penetration of the steam pistol, the only way to kill him was to shoot through the small hole in the eye.

"Hmm...... Is he really dead, sister?" Lusa timidly picked up the shivering ball and returned her crossbody bag.

Everything just happened so suddenly that Lucina, who didn't have time to think, just felt nervous. However, after the battle ended, Lucina was deeply frightened.

"The Corruptor...... Probably already considered dead. In order to calm her emotions, Lucina took a deep breath and approached the enemy who had collapsed on the ground: "How can there be corruptors in the Cold Snow Castle...... And there was no one to remind us at all? I think there were quite a few guards here......"

"Sister, be careful. Lusara lowered her hood: "He may ...... It will also move. ”

"Understood. Lucina didn't dare to be careless. Cautiously approaching the Corruptor, Lucina was always on the lookout for any of his actions.

Taking off his helmet, Lucina felt a wave of nausea—black blood in the socket of his left eye, and disgusting with the corrupt markings on his face.

"Uh, that's disgusting...... Forget it?" remorseful Lucina put on her helmet again.

"Sister, this sword ......" Lusha struggled to pick up the weapon and dragged it to Lucina's side: "There is something left on it." ”

"Huh?" Lucina turned to look at her sister, "What's that?"

"Right here......" Lusha staggered to her sword, "Woo...... What a heavy sword. ”

"It's because you're too weak. Lucina patted her sister on the head and took the weapon. However, as Lusa said, this sword is deadly.

"Woo, it's really heavy......" Lucina, who almost flashed her waist, had to tilt her heavy sword so that it was clinging to her body.

Looking at the black residue stuck to the blade, Lucina was confused: "This seems to be ...... Crystallization? It doesn't look like poison. ”

"Crystal?" Lutha leaned closer to her sister and crouched down.

"Uh......h Never mind. Lucina put down her sword and looked at the door of the room, which kept pouring cold air from the hallway, "Be careful, Lusa...... We've got to get out of here. ”

"Where are you going, sister?" Lusa hurriedly followed Lucina, who had already walked to the door.

"The hall ...... Probably. Lucina leaned in the doorway and looked down the quiet corridor: "Strange...... Why isn't there anyone in the hallway?"

All I could see was the eerie white chill that filled the hallway. The icy aura was like the chill around the Corruptor, unbearably cold.

Be quiet...... It's so quiet...... Lucina involuntarily lightened her steps, and she felt her heart beat inexplicably.

"Follow me, Lusa. Lucina recalled the direction of the hall and walked quickly to the right: "I'm afraid dinner won't be done...... Snowcastle didn't know what was going on. ”

Recalling the route she had just taken with the butler, Lucina found the door to the hall.

The door was left behind and not shut. The chill in the hallway seeped out of it. Pushing the door slowly, Lucina cautiously peered into the hall.

I don't know if it's an illusion or what's going on, the ice dragon statue in the center of the hall seems to be much taller than what I saw when I came.

Just as Lucina twisted the handle to enter, the sight made her reflexively slam the door shut quickly and silently—the base of the Ice Dragon God statue had been lifted at some point, and several soldier-like Corruptors were stepping out of it.

Holding her breath, Lucina, unable to breathe, listened to the increasingly frequent and distant footsteps. It wasn't until the sound of the metal boots stomping on the ground completely dissipated that Lucina, who was sure she hadn't been discovered, breathed a sigh of relief.

Lusa, who was also listening by the door, looked terrified, and she held Lucina's hand tightly.
