However, occasionally, one or two extremely lucky players, or those with special tracking skills, happen to appear in Xiao Jin's path and attempt to intercept him.
"The head is mine!" A black player wielding a giant axe roared as he leaped out from behind an ice mound on the flank, the axe cleaving down with the force of a mountain splitting!
Xiao Jin's eyes were icy cold, and her speed did not decrease in the slightest!
The long sword wasn't even fully drawn; in the instant they passed each other, the end of the scabbard lashed out like a scorpion's tail, whistling through the air with deadly precision, and struck the burly man's Adam's apple!
"Crack!" The crisp sound of a throat bone breaking was drowned out by the sound of wind and snow.
The burly player's massive body seemed to have been drained of all its strength. He dropped his giant axe, clutched his throat, and collapsed to the ground with a gasp, his eyes filled with disbelief and bewilderment.
From another direction, an assassin hidden in the wind and snow suddenly sprang up, his poisoned dagger aimed at Xiao Jin's back!
Xiao Jin's ice crystal wings suddenly flapped, carrying countless sharp ice shards that shot backward like a rain of pear blossoms!
"Puff puff puff puff—!"
The assassin was instantly riddled with bullets, screaming as he fell, his body quickly covered and frozen by frost.
"A monster! She's a monster!"
"Don't be alone! Being alone is suicide!"
"We need to form teams, the whole group must go together!"
The pursuing players were terrified by the killing and began shouting in the chat.
They dared not scatter any longer and could only quickly form large groups of a dozen or even dozens of people, like a pack of clumsy sled dogs, running frantically behind the snow trails left by Xiao Jin.
Watching the white dot representing the coordinates flicker and recede like a ghost in the storm, a sense of powerlessness and fear of that black figure grew wildly in their hearts.
Countdown: 06:23.
A white dot of light traced an eerie arc across the ice field before plunging into a labyrinth of countless enormous, twisted blue glaciers.
The ice walls here are tens of meters high, like natural fortresses, where storms swirl and howl, creating a shrill, ghostly wail.
"The coordinates have stopped! At (X-800, Y-1100), there is an ice and snow maze!"
"Quick! Surround them! She can't escape!"
"Watch out for traps, and don't forget the lag from before!"
Players from all factions, like sharks smelling blood, poured into the ice maze from various entrances.
At the heart of the ice maze, beneath a relatively open ice dome.
Xiao Jin stood silently, the ice crystal wings on her back slowly retracting and disappearing. She was slightly out of breath; the continuous high-intensity sprints and skill usage had taken a heavy toll on her.
The "Head of the Beast God" in his hand emitted a steady blood-red light, and the countdown clearly ticked in his mind: 05:15.
Suddenly, she frowned and tried to teleport away again!
However, the space itself seemed to have been poured with molten iron. A powerful, viscous wave, imbued with the force of spatial confinement, instantly enveloped the entire ice dome region!
Xiao Jin's spatial ability seemed to sink without a trace, showing no effect whatsoever!
"Hehehe... Running away? Why aren't you running anymore?" Suddenly, a cold voice came from above the ice dome.
Dozens of figures emerged like ghosts from the tops of the towering ice walls and the entrance to the passage, instantly surrounding the small area.
The leader was a mage dressed in a deep purple robe and holding a staff inlaid with twisted crystals, with a smug grin on his face.
It was he who cast the [Spatial Lockdown] on Xiao Jin!
After the series of chases, some clever players quickly realized that Xiao Jin could manipulate space.
Fortunately, there was a player in the team who could seal off space, so they used an ultra-long-range teleportation scroll to intercept Xiao Jin first and imprison him here.
"The space is locked; she won't be able to escape this time!"
"Wen Jin! Hand over your head, and I'll spare your life!"
"Bullshit! She should be killed to avenge the brothers who died at her hands!"
"You yellow-skinned monkey from Country Z, your death is near."
Shouts and threats rang out from all directions, and dozens of pairs of greedy, murderous eyes were fixed on the lone figure holding a severed head in the center of the ice dome like hungry wolves.
The glow of various weapons and skills illuminated the dim ice dome, and violent energy fluctuations churned the air.
Xiao Jin slowly raised his head, his cold gaze sweeping over the dark mass of enemies around him, and over the purple-robed mage who was maintaining the spatial blockade.
Her face showed no fear, no panic, not even a trace of emotion. It was as if she weren't the one surrounded by dozens of players.
She silently and slowly fastened the "beast god's head," which radiated an ominous blood-red light, to the specially made leather buckle around her waist, ensuring it wouldn't fall off.
Then, he firmly gripped the hilt of the long sword at his waist with his right hand.
"Clang—!"
A clear and melodious sword cry, like a dragon's roar, pierced through the spatial blockade and the enemy's clamor, resounding majestically beneath the icy dome!
The cold blade was drawn inch by inch, its chilling light reflecting off her expressionless face, as well as the faces of the surrounding enemies—some ferocious, some greedy, some fearful.
At the same time, Amo jumped off Xiao Jin's shoulder, its massive body silently coiling behind her.
The snake raised its head, its cold, blood-red vertical pupils indifferently scanning its surrounding "prey," its scarlet tongue flicking in and out, emitting a low hissing sound.
The man and the python were equally imposing.
Xiao Jin's knuckles turned slightly white as he gripped the hilt of his sword, and his icy breath condensed into white mist in the cold wind.
A silent killing intent, like a tangible cold wave, swept outwards from her center!
The players on the other side were still a bit stunned, after all, they really didn't expect that Xiao Jin would have such courage to compete with them.
The chilling clang of blades still echoed in the icy dome, and the shadow of death pressed down as if it were a tangible reality!
"Charge—!"
No one knows who roared first, but dozens of violent attacks, like a flood bursting its banks, instantly engulfed the center of the ice dome!
Ice spikes, fireballs, long arrows, and even rocket launchers and several miniature rockets with trailing flames!
Various colored energy rays intertwined to form a destructive net of light, carrying the power to tear everything apart, and fiercely slammed towards Xiao Jin and A Mo who was entrenched behind her!
Xiao Jin's eyes flashed with a cold light, without the slightest hesitation!
Ice Crystal Armor!
Activating the item skill, in the next second, countless tiny yet hard ice crystals instantly condensed, stacked, and shaped wildly on her body!
In an instant, a white crystal armor covering the entire body, shimmering with dazzling cold light, and with sharp, angular edges like dragon scales, was formed.
The armor was covered with sharp ice spikes, radiating a chilling aura!
Thorns and Iron Wall!
When the attack hit Xiao Jin, part of it was blocked by her sword, and the rest was blocked by the defensive item, thus triggering the passive skill of 'Abyss Lower Armor'.
In an instant, a giant metal shield phantom made of countless thick metal shields wrapped with dark red thorns rose from the ground!
Block, bounce!
