On the snowy field where the cold wind was howling, a red lotus flame fell from the sky, followed by a group of hundreds of rumbling helicopters.

The ruined town was crumbling under the devastating onslaught of the Ice and Snow Beasts, and as soon as the flames landed, the entire town was submerged like a blazing sea of fire.

These demonic beasts, which had previously given people infinite shock and terror, with their long sharp claws and fangs shining with cold light, were all annihilated in them before they could survive even a second under the burning of the flames.

"Valkyrie-sama!"

"Valkyrie-sama!"

The rescued civilians let out excited cries and waved their arms at her, but Theresia ignored the voices and gazes, only frowning slightly.

Lately, psionic energy has been increasing more and more slowly.

She's saved a lot of people, she's killed a lot of monsters, and the raging flames have turned their deaths into nutrients and fuel, but the improvements she has brought are not as obvious as before.

No matter how many fourth-order and fifth-order demonic beasts there are, or even sixth-order beastmasters, the growth they bring her can't compare to that of a seventh-order beastmaster.

She could feel that the Ice King's recovery was approaching.

And she, her strength has not yet reached the point of competing with him.

"Valkyrie, the rescued people are going to hold a celebratory banquet for you, thank you for saving your life."

A soldier walked over and said cautiously.

"Tell them they don't have to do it, and my time won't be wasted on these boring chores." Theresia said indifferently.

"But everybody actually ......"

"Huh?" Theresia turned her head and gave him a faint look, "Do you have an opinion?" ”

In an instant, it was like a cold wind blowing on his face, and flames were added.

The soldier only felt as if he was being looked down on coldly by some behemoth, and cold sweat instantly crawled all over his body.

"No, don't dare."

He bowed his head respectfully and stammered, "I...... I'm going to inform you of the cancellation of the banquet. ”

"Wait."

Theresia stopped him, her expression softening slightly.

"I know that everyone is tired from the repeated battles, and if you want to relax, the banquet does not have to be canceled, you go and celebrate with those civilians, I don't have to. There are more people suffering ahead, more demonic beasts are wreaking havoc, I'm not tired yet, you guys have a good rest, I'll go to the front to solve some demonic beasts that you can't deal with first. ”

"Valkyrie, you ......"

The soldier jerked his head up and looked at the soft expression on Theresia's face, wanting to say something.

"Needless to say." Theresia raised her hand to stop him.

"The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility, as a Valkyrie, I naturally have to work harder, you first relax and rest, and only after recuperating can you better help me, isn't it?"

"Yes, Lord Valkyrie!"

The rare trace of gentleness, like a spring breeze, after the domineering appearance was exposed, made the soldier's throat choke and his eyes red.

He bowed dignified and watched Theresia walk away.

He thought, he must have felt wrong just now, how could such a powerful and gentle Valkyrie-sama give him the feeling of being targeted by a cold monster?

Those villains who spread rumors and slandered Lord Valkyrie in the Northland are really hateful, and Lord Valkyrie is so selfless and great, and they are also qualified to be evaluated by these gutter rats who hide behind their backs and dare not go to the battlefield?

Theresia did not attend the celebratory banquet held by her soldiers and civilians to dilute their grief.

She flew alone towards the north, her crimson armor spewing crimson flames, her wings outstretched like flaming stray guns.

Gradually, a heavy snowstorm began to fall on the snowfield.

Obviously, the Ice King's psionic powers had once again begun to invade the Northlands on a large scale, and before he could wake up, the catastrophe he brought seemed to be about to wipe out all living beings in the Northlands.

In this raging and terrifying blizzard, the Ice and Snow Monster became more powerful and terrifying, its size expanded, its body became huge, its claws and fangs brought more cold spiritual energy, and it was wrapped in ice chips as it walked, as if even the air could freeze.

Theresia sees a town, a town that is about to be invaded by Ice and Snow Monsters.

She saw the huge monster in the lead, a beastmaster who exuded the aura of sixth-order spiritual energy.

Under the blizzard created by the Ice King's psionic energy, the strength and momentum of this beast king are still expanding and growing, and it may be able to break through to the seventh order in a while.

The herd is already approaching the town, and someone in the town has spotted these terrible monsters and sounded the alarm.

However, what ability do these poor people who are powerless to resist in the face of these powerful monsters?

The rapid and sharp sound of the siren was more like the alarm bell of the Grim Reaper urging them to step into the coffin, and she heard someone shouting for everyone to hide quickly, and she heard someone trying to encourage everyone to hold on as much as possible in an atmosphere of despair, and the noble and great Valkyrie who was as blazing as flame would definitely come to their rescue.

She heard those prayers of hope.

She didn't show up.

She didn't make a move.

She watched silently as the horde of demonic beasts led by the Beastmaster walked towards the fragile and pitiful town, shaking the earth, destroying the houses on the outskirts of the town, and heading towards the center of the town.

Wait.

She said secretly in her heart.

Looking at the beastmaster in front of her, she ignored the desperate eyes of the poor innocent people below, the prayers that hoped she would come.

Wait.

She silently stopped in the air and waited.

Seeing a monster clatter like shredding a house and exposing an innocent civilian hiding in the house, see it raise its claws against him, flashing with a cold, deadly cold light.

"Valkyrie-sama, the sublime and great, flame-blazing Valkyrie-sama, please, please, please......"

She heard the commoner's voice tremble in despair, stammering feeble prayers and cries, as if hoping for an angel to come.

Wait.

She said secretly in her heart, ignoring the civilians who were about to die under the claws of the demonic beast, and looked at the beastmaster whose aura was becoming more and more overflowing and about to break through to the seventh order.

"Theresia, what are you waiting for?"

A lightsaber descended from the distant sky, and in a flash it pierced through the air, piercing the beast's body and saving the innocent civilian.

Xia Ming appeared in front of Theresia and looked into her cold and indifferent eyes.

"Xia Ming, didn't you go to everyone's banquet?"

Seeing him, the girl's eyes suddenly lit up, and a smile appeared on her face, as if the dead world suddenly had a vivid look, and asked in surprise.

Xia Ming didn't smile, still looked at her emerald eyes, and asked repeatedly:

"Theresia, I'm asking you, you just stopped here and didn't move, indifferent to the civilians below who were about to die under the clutches of the beast, what are you waiting for?"

Theresia's expression slowly turned cold.
