Chapter 173 Mizuki Private High School (Forty-five)
The area covered by the crystal ball was not only completely isolated from other areas, but for some unknown reason, the place where there should have been some movement was now completely silent.
It seemed as if in an instant, all the living creatures in the woods had disappeared.
In this environment, the sudden sound of airflow becomes more and more obvious, and the sound tends to become more and more obvious, making it really difficult to ignore.
Just when everyone was holding their breath, those shadows appeared on one side of the crystal ball. Unlike the first conversation with the Assassin's Guild President, there were only four shadows.
This time, they almost filled the entire circle of the crystal ball, with about twenty of them, and they were more obvious than the previous shadows.
Whether they were players or old classmates, they were all very wary of the sudden appearance of uninvited guests.
But before they could make any move, the shadow appeared.
With the edge of the crystal ball as the axis, countless ice blades broke through the ground and attacked everyone directly.
Bei Xi embraced Nan Huan and jumped away from the attack, but the ice blade that had dodged past encountered the crystal ball on the other side, turned smoothly, and continued to attack the players and old classmates.
All of a sudden, the entire crystal ball seemed to be attacked by many white shadows at the same time.
Bei Xi, President Barbie, and Chaka seemed to be the three people who reacted the fastest. They realized that the ice front seemed to be unavoidable, and one of Chaka's old classmates accidentally got a little bit of the cold brought by the ice front, and one of his arms was immediately covered with frost.
It was just like what happened to Ge Yuxin at that time. If Chaka hadn't been quick-witted and chopped off the arm of that old classmate, she would have exploded in the next second when her whole body was covered with frost.
And in the enclosed environment of the crystal ball, I'm afraid no one can escape the attack of tiny crystals.
Beixi, Barbie, Chaka, and Nanhuan realized that if they didn't stop the monsters, the ice blades would not disappear. Physical warfare was not good news for players with limited physical strength or old classmates.
After all, the crystal ball is a closed and restricted area, and it is impossible to escape completely.
Bei Xi directly embraced Nan Huan, and jumped to the side of a phantom when the ice blade just passed behind her. However, when her black iron axe passed through the flowing air flow, the opponent completely dissipated and disappeared just like the last time.
Not only Bei Xi, but also President Barbie, Chaka and the players who reacted later were just like their old classmates. As soon as they attacked the phantom, the other side did not resist at all, but disappeared directly.
However, the ice blade that stretched across the crystal ball did not decrease or lose any power due to the disappearance of the phantom.
Seeing the situation here, Twelve felt it was not a good idea to just whip the shadow closest to her.
She tried hard to dodge Bing Feng's attack, and slowly approached the phantom with a whip in one hand. She found that although the other party had a face like a human, he looked like a normal student.
But it seemed to have no reaction to his approach until Twelve carefully poked the shadow with the whip, and the shadow disappeared immediately as if it were a virtual image.
"Has the monster disappeared?"
Twelve had no time to stand there as the ice blade that was bounced back swept over her again. She had to take the opportunity to move towards the position of the eldest lady and the president, while asking questions in confusion.
"What's going on? They finally trapped us here, and they don't plan to attack. What's going on?"
If the enemy was willing to fight one on one, Twelve would not be so frustrated. But now he doesn't even have an opponent to fight, and he can't even touch the ice blade that could sweep over at any time.
"What do you mean you can't attack? Aren't we being attacked now?"
Everyone else was busy dodging the ice front. Besides, they really didn't understand what was happening and had no time to answer Twelve. Only Nan Huan seemed the most idle.
But she had been frowning since just now, "I just don't know what the other party's situation is."
Her voice was not loud when she said the following sentence, and it was unclear whether she was speaking to Twelve or to herself.
Suddenly in Nanhuan's field of vision, A Liu seemed to sense something and jumped in front of him, and Bei Xi, who was holding him, also turned around instantly and blocked his way with his body.
A thin net made of ice suddenly appeared in the void, like a giant spider web, covering A Liu's body.
Beixi's iron axe moved at the same time as Nanhuan's thought.
A Liu disappeared from the thin net and appeared on the other side of Nanhuan, but the thin net had been turned into ice flocs by Bei Xi's iron hoe.
Compared to the ice blade that was about to kill them, this thin net seemed to have little attack power.
Those monsters wanted to capture Nanhuan alive.
Bei Xi thought of this immediately, and a phantom appeared again where the thin net disappeared.
Bei Xi held the iron axe and stabbed it, and the shadow disappeared again.
But this time her expression was not as ugly as before, and her actions just now seemed more like she was trying to confirm a certain idea.
Nan Huan, who was watching all this, seemed to have thought of something.
A Liu stood beside Nan Huan and touched his body, as if feeling the aftereffects of being caught in the net just now.
"That net doesn't seem to have any lethality?"
She looked at Nan Huan in confusion, "I can feel the opponent's attack, but I can't determine its location. It doesn't seem to want to hurt you."
"These ice fronts are for others."
Ever since she turned into this ghost form, only others could not see her. She had never seen a situation like this before, where one could not even touch the other person's shadow. In addition, it was almost confirmed now that the other party seemed to be only interested in Nan Huan, so she became even more worried.
Nan Huan seemed to know what she was thinking and patted her shoulder, "Don't worry, I roughly know what's going on."
When A Liu heard her words, his eyes instantly brightened up.
"Let me confirm something with you," Nan Huan relied on Bei Xi to protect him and spoke to A Liu without any scruples, "When those phantoms appeared in the crystal ball before, did you feel their intention to attack?"
A Liu noticed Nan Huan's choice of words, noticed the moments she emphasized, and thought about it carefully with a frown on her face.
"Because there were so many monsters and the crystal ball appeared so suddenly, I didn't pay much attention to it before. Now that I think about it, it seems that the intention to attack was there before, but when those phantoms appeared, I didn't seem to feel that they had any intention to attack."
Nan Huan nodded, seemingly not surprised by the result.
She reached out and patted Pa Beixi, "Go find Chaka and negotiate a deal with her."
Bei Xi had been listening to the conversation between the two and had no opinion on Nan Huan's actions. "Are you sure your trick will work on them?"
"This is a closed space, it should be useful," Nan Huan said helplessly, as if she felt it was incredible and helpless that Bei Xi could guess her intentions and thoughts from her expression without saying a word. However, she knew what the other party was worried about, so she put her arm around Bei Xi's neck, "Besides, don't we still have you? We can trick Cha Ka first, it won't do us any harm anyway. If we can really make a deal, wouldn't it be a victory without fighting?"
Bing Feng had already made everyone suffer enough. Nan Huan observed the battle situation and said, "But now we need a quiet space to talk. Are there any props in the mall that can be used?"
These ice blades are indeed a bit annoying. Before they can come up with a solution, the players from Guild One and Guild Two have not yet used their skills. It seems that they are trying to find some pattern from these attacks.
"No, there is a way."
Bei Xi understood what Nan Huan meant and looked at him thoughtfully, "I'll let President Barbie show you something good later."
After that, Bei Xi left Nan Huan, who was a little confused, and announced the plan to others in the communication channel, "We have found a way to deal with these monsters, but we need President Barbie's help."
Barbie on the other end of the phone agreed, but she was a little confused about what she needed help with.
"We need to negotiate a deal with Chaka across the street, so we need a relatively quiet environment. I remember that among the people you brought, there is a player whose skills can come in handy."
Before she finished, President Barbie already understood, "No problem, we'll rush over now, Mocha Meng, it's up to you later."
"No problem, President. I've been ready for a long time."
Hearing the player's name, Nan Huan remembered that it was the player who said he wanted to use his personal skills when facing the insect swarm before. However, he was stopped by President Barbie at that time, who said that using the opponent's skills would be like walking into a trap, and he didn't know how it would be useful here now.
The players from Nanhuan and Beixi were very united. After receiving Beixi's plan, they moved towards Chaka together.
If one or two people approached quietly, perhaps the old classmates would not notice it so quickly, but now the other party came out in full force, and their target was very clear, they were heading for Chaka, so the group of old classmates could no longer remain calm.
"President, the enemy is coming towards us. The fact that you are the host has been exposed. The enemy has the advantage in numbers. We may not be able to gain any advantage."
A girl who was following Chaka walked around Bingfeng and spoke with some difficulty.
"We were exposed as soon as we came in," Chaka was calmer, "If we weren't alone, we wouldn't have been surrounded. There was also a host among the other group."
"What? Who is it?" The girl looked very surprised. "Should we take this opportunity to snatch it away? This is a good opportunity."
She was so excited that she forgot the current situation.
"We snatch it first, and then let the monster snatch it away?" Chaka was a little amused, "We make wedding clothes for the monster, fight among ourselves first, and then send ourselves to the monster after both sides are injured?"
"ah?"
The girl finally reacted a little slowly, with disappointment in her tone.
"Don't worry, they're not here to do anything."
As soon as he finished speaking, Bei Xi had already landed lightly in front of Chaka, holding Nan Huan in his arms.
