Chapter 329: The Ice Grave
"It's ...... What's that?"
At this moment, not only the wealthy merchants and guards, but even the few mages who had always remained calm couldn't help but be shocked when they looked at the strange ice wall that suddenly appeared. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Is it magic?
But why didn't they feel any magic fluctuations?
Thinking of this, several mages couldn't help but gasp and forcibly calm themselves. They looked around, and the camp was still there, and there was no sudden blizzard or anything like that. But he also found that the ice wall that appeared above their heads was not just blocking their top.
The ice walls are connected like a lid that snaps straight down. At that moment, a huge ice shield suddenly appeared, completely covering all of them, along with the entire camp.
"What kind of magic is this? You know what?"
"I ...... I've never heard of this kind of magic?"
"No, such a large-scale magic, there should be a lot of magic fluctuations and elemental changes when cast, why didn't I feel it at all just now?"
Under the mutation, several mages did not panic too much, and began to exchange ideas with each other, trying to explain the current situation. It's a pity that the more they communicate, the more they can't get any results, and they become more and more flustered.
After all, the scene in front of them had completely subverted their basic magical cognition.
And Benjamin's voice also came down again at this time.
"Don't guess, it's not magic, it's my grave bag for you. β
β...... Grave bag?"
A few mages were confused.
What is that?
Benjamin stood at the top of the entire icy tomb, and when he saw this, he couldn't help but scratch his head.
All right...... Forget that there is no such thing as a grave bag in this world.
I was going to say something terrible, something like "this is your grave" or something. It's just that the ice cover that came out in the end is really similar to the grave bag, and he accidentally said it wrong.
Benjamin was also helpless.
What a domineering appearance, it's all ruined now.
"You can call those mercenaries up and jump on them together to save your dignity a little. The system said suddenly.
β......β
Benjamin lifts his forehead.
One day, he will be cold to death by this system.
Never mind...... In any case, he frantically accumulated a pile of ice cubes in the space of consciousness, and in the end, he succeeded in constructing such an ice tomb.
Edmund's diversionary mission was done perfectly, bringing the blame together. Benjamin also found an opportunity to trap the entire camp inside. The height of the Ice Tomb does not exceed the height of the trees, so there is no need to worry, the people guarding outside the trees will notice.
And now, the whole picture is also clear.
He wants to make this icy tomb the real grave of these people.
A sneer appeared at the corner of Benjamin's mouth.
At the same time, some panicked voices were coming from within, and they must have been frightened. The loudest are the rich merchants, some of whom have no masters, and some of whom are yelling. The guards sounded noisy, and had even begun to attack the ice wall, trying to break through.
But the result......
"It's good, it's cold. A wealthy merchant suddenly shouted, "Hey, don't you know magic, hurry up and do something, so much money is not for you for nothing!"
When several mages heard this, they looked at each other and recited incantations. Along with the condensation of the fire element, dozens of fireballs emerged and launched a concentrated attack towards a certain point on the ice wall.
Apparently, they thought that fire magic might be able to restrain the icy tomb.
However, halfway through the flight, the fireball did not even hit the ice wall, and continued to grow smaller and weaker as it flew. In the end, even a dozen sparks, faintly floated up, and then swished, completely extinguished.
"This ...... How so?"
Several mages were a little confused.
One of the mages closed his eyes and carefully felt his surroundings with his mental power. Then his face turned extremely ugly.
"There's something weird about this thing!"
Without them noticing, countless tiny pieces of crushed ice powder gradually flew out from the ice wall, covering the entire interior of the Ice Giant Tomb. The structure of the water element inside these powders is constantly changing, absorbing a lot of heat from the air, which also causes the temperature of the entire environment to drop again and again.
In this case, the power of fire-based magic has dropped dramatically, and it will not be effective in any way.
Realizing this, the mages couldn't help but look around.
I saw that the bonfire, which was still brilliant and bright just now, was only a small flame at this moment. At this moment, the entire interior of the giant tomb was dimly lit, and the ground was covered with frost, as if it had fallen into the polar cold.
They still have some fire elementals around them, so they don't feel that bad, but the others are different. Even the guards who wanted to break through the ice wall trembled after a few hard swings of their swords, lost the strength of their attacks, and almost couldn't even hold their swords.
"A few or a few mages, let's do something quickly...... If we continue like this, we will freeze to death!" several wealthy merchants gathered around, grabbed the mage, and pleaded weakly. The white breath exhaled from their mouths also made this place feel more and more icy and snowy.
When several mages heard this, they hurriedly recited a spell and summoned an elemental shield to protect all the rich merchants and themselves.
As for the others, there is certainly no such treatment.
"Big, big...... Please let me in!"
"It's so cold, I'm going to freeze to death, Master Mage...... Help me......"
Because the mages didn't want to waste their mental power, the hundreds of guards could only be exposed to the low temperature of the Ice Tomb, begging around the people hiding in the shield. Some of those with relatively weak physiques have even frozen and fainted.
At this rate, in a few minutes, they will all freeze to death.
However, no one cares whether they live or die.
"What the hell is going on?" Hiding in the shield, the rich merchants gradually regained their spirits, and immediately shouted, "Why is there a mage here? Why is that mage attacking us, what the hell are those rice buckets doing?"
The mages shook their heads and smiled wryly.
"We don't know ...... either"
I was sitting here, eating barbecue and singing, but suddenly a mercenary with intact hands suddenly came out. As a result, in the blink of an eye, an unheard-of magic was used as a head. They could even die here.
What are you kidding!
At this moment, they gradually recovered from the surprise attack, and the expressions of several people were also a little confused.
The "Seven Days of Hell" has also been held for so many years, and several wealthy businessmen are regular customers, and they come here every year to relax. A few mages were invited over, which means that they held up the pomp and circumstance, never thinking that there would be any unexpected situations.
They all subconsciously think, this is good, how can something happen?
But everything right now hit them even more missed.
...... What's going on?
They're obviously here to play! If they're having a good time, why are they going to die all of a sudden?
"Hey, the guy out there. A rich merchant shouted on the spot, "Who the hell are you, why are you trapped here? We're all rich." You let us out, and you will be prosperous and rich for the rest of your life!"
Other wealthy businessmen responded, offering Benjamin all sorts of tempting-sounding terms.
A few mages are not as naΓ―ve as the rich merchants. In other words, they still have fighting spirit in their hearts. Once the shield was formed, they chanted incantations and chanted more complex spells in an attempt to break through the ice wall with their ultimate.
And at this moment, Benjamin's voice also came from outside.
"The system says that you can't even do a handstand with your hands, you don't have a row at all, and no one will want to make a deal with you. β
The wealthy businessmen listened with a bewildered expression.
...... System Layout Surface?
What's that?
"If I could do a handstand, would you let me out?" someone asked.
Benjamin couldn't help but laugh and replied, "Yes." β
The wealthy businessmen all had skeptical expressions on their faces, but they were frightened by the pressure of survival. So, there are people who do it.
I saw that several round guys had bitter faces, propped their hands on the ground, and tried to stand upside down. However, the results of their attempts were unbearable, and in addition to incurring the contempt of their companions, one of them accidentally fell, interrupting a mage's chanting ultimate.
"Do you have cow dung in your heads, believe it or not, I'm going to throw you out!" the mage was interrupted in his spell casting, his magic was devoured, and he spat out a mouthful of blood, and he didn't care about his employment status, and he just yelled at the rich merchant.
Benjamin stood outside, sensing the scene, and almost laughed.
"It's pathetic to be their thugs. The system also popped up, saying in a sympathetic and compassionate tone.
