Under the protection of the powerful mind shield, the male ice worm's head, although more than a foot away from the priest, felt as if it had hit something soft and tough, and could no longer move forward. It was so angry that it shook its head and tail and roared non-stop.

With such a buffer time, the rest of the people had come to their senses and rushed forward to rescue. Duize had already drawn his gun, and when he raised his wrist, a series of bullets shot straight over, blasting a large ball of fire on the ice worm's shell.

Du Yuqi performed his semi-skilled three-section slash. His whole posture looked like an ice skater. He slid on the ground three times continuously, and had already covered a distance of more than thirty meters. Then he rushed out and hugged the ice statue of the priest in mid-air. After landing, he protected it and escaped after several consecutive rolls. He looked quite embarrassed.

For Du Yuqi and others, if the priest who led the way was frozen into an ice statue, there was still room for recovery. It could be said that the incident happened in a hurry and there was no time to rescue him. Moreover, with the means of the temple, he could be thawed and saved as long as he was transported back.

However, if the head was smashed to pieces by this male ice worm, it would be impossible to put it back together again. So after seeing Du Yuqi successfully rescue people, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Facing such an emergency, Changmei and Mingxi's reactions were indeed much slower, and even if they did react, they were indeed lacking in the means to deal with the situation. As the saying goes, saving lives is like putting out a fire, and every second counts. They couldn't instantly summon Hedel to knock the ice sculpture away with a stick? Or summon a mutant Woso to protect the ice sculpture?

Not to mention the small talk, although Du Yuqi hugged the ice sculpture and flew away, he was actually only temporarily out of danger. Yes, he was indeed temporarily out of danger.

Because the energy shield created by Xi only existed for about two seconds.

The existence time of the energy shield was originally very short, and Xi had just used his skills hastily, plus the crazy attacks of the two giant ice worms, so the energy shield was quickly broken.

The attack methods of these two ice worms are also different. One seems to be using long-range attacks, opening its mouthparts and madly spitting out ice arrows. The other one tends to launch physical attacks, baring its fangs and biting hard.

At this time, Du Yuqi, who was holding the ice sculpture, had only run less than 30 meters away, but it seemed that he had at least escaped the attack range of the ice worm.

However, when the two ice worms realized that their prey had escaped, they actually did one thing. They shrank back into the ground in an extremely strange way and disappeared in an instant. Only two deep black holes as big as millstones were left in the permafrost!

Xi's eyes shone when he saw this, and he immediately pointed at Du Yuqi who looked relieved and said loudly:

"Don't relax, run away!"

After hearing this, Du Yuqi felt as if he was whipped, and he ran away with all his strength. Just as he tensed his body and tried to rush forward again, the ground in front of him trembled. There was a loud noise as if an explosion, and the smaller male ice worm came out from the ground, half stretched out its body, and let out a sharp roar!

This is another method used by the ice worm. It spews out a powerful fan-shaped sound wave in front of it, attacking the enemy invisibly and colorlessly. Du Yuqi immediately felt dizzy and nauseous, and stood there staggering.

The purpose of this sonic attack is not to kill, but to weaken the enemy's mobility.

Seeing that Du Yuqi was successfully hit, the ice worm immediately stretched out its neck and shot out like lightning. Its original posture was like a cobra, with half of its body standing up. Once it attacked, it moved incredibly fast, like a cobra hunting.

Fortunately, at this time Du Yuqi had recovered from the dizziness of the sonic attack in time. He put down the ice sculpture and turned around to block in front of it. Then he drew out Kulan's Flame Shadow Sword, took a deep breath, and slashed down at the head of the ice worm.

At this time, Du Yuqi was still confident that he could block the opponent's attack. The key was that there was still a female ice worm hiding underground and had not appeared. Once he confronted the male ice worm head-on, the female ice worm would spit out ice from the back, which would be a desperate situation.

Fortunately, Du Yuqi knew at this time that Xi and Duize were standing behind him, which gave him a great sense of relief. The feeling of having someone protecting him from behind was really great. In view of the close cooperation before, Du Yuqi chose to trust them, leaving the rear completely defenseless, and focusing all his energy on dealing with the monster in front of him. Veins had already popped out on the back of his right hand holding Kulan's Flame Shadow Sword, and he killed it with all his strength!

There was a loud "bang" and Du Yuqi was blown five or six meters away. He looked like a kite with a broken string. Fortunately, he did not lose his balance when he landed. He staggered a few times and half-knelt on the ground. His right hand holding the sword kept shaking, and he could not help but coughing violently.

However, the performance of the male ice worm was even more terrible. It twisted its body high and raised it up, intermittently spurting out some soy sauce-colored body fluids from its mouthparts, while making continuous wails.

You can see an obvious dent on its hard forehead shell, which is half a meter long. The inside of the dent seems to be carbonized, pitch black, and there are even sporadic flames burning. At the same time, a pungent burnt smell comes out of the air. Then this guy suddenly shrinks back into the ground. It escapes so quickly that Duize and Du Yuqi are caught off guard when they want to take advantage of its injury to make up for it.

Obviously, this guy relied on his strong shell to charge forward and suffered a great loss, because Kulan's Flame Shadow Sword was originally a fire-attribute attack, and as an ice worm, its fire resistance was originally low, and this was a +11 weapon. The additional attack power of the enhanced weapon ignored any defense and could directly cause amazing damage to the enemy!

Seeing its partner injured, another female ice worm suddenly emerged from the ground, aimed at the culprit Du Yuqi, opened its mouth and spit out frost.

This burst of frost seemed to be released in anger, so it was almost like a breath, sweeping down like a waterfall.

However, at this time, although Duize was still far away, he had already raised his gun and fired again. Amid the sound of gunfire, it can be seen that he was not firing at the ice worms, but directly at the ruins next to Du Yuqi.

Duize's shots happened to hit the supporting points of the ruins nearby. The house was already full of holes, and after being hit by Duize's shots, half of the house collapsed. After the collapse, the broken bricks and rocks formed a natural shelter in front of Du Yuqi, protecting him just right.

The frost spewed out like a cold wave. Du Yuqi, who was protected at the back, only had to lie down obediently beside it and suffered only some minor splash damage. He used Kulan's Flame Shadow Sword to easily evaporate the cold air that had invaded his body.

At this time, Xi had arrived in time, protected the ice sculpture of the priest who was leading the way, and brought it to a safe area. After the female ice worm spit out frost, it looked very weak, and its shell was not as thick as that of the male ice worm, so it shrank back under the ice layer again.

Du Yuqi had already noticed a detail at this time, that is, the areas where the two giant ice worms can burrow into the ground are all covered by the azure barrier, and it seems that they have now shrunk back to the land on the Minsk Cathedral side.

Therefore, Du Yuqi's mind moved, and he immediately stood up and ran to the side. He took two steps at a time and returned to the place covered by the blue barrier. Then, he really felt a slight trembling sound coming from the ground.

Immediately afterwards, the previously injured male ice worm broke out of the ground with a bang, with amazing momentum. It was obviously even more angry because it had been injured by Kulan's Flame Shadow Sword. Once it found that Du Yuqi had entered its attack range, it attacked without hesitation.

At this time, Du Yuqi had already considered his own means of attack, but for some reason, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his mind. These days, whenever he had free time, he had been studying the backward jump slash. Therefore, although his mind was clearly thinking of launching a mountain-collapsing attack, in fact, his body was very honest and weird and launched a backward jump slash. This was the body's instinctive reaction, and he felt that the current situation seemed to be dealt with by using the backward jump slash.

As a result, after the backward jump slash was launched, Du Yuqi immediately jumped backward and happened to avoid the fierce collision of the male ice worm that broke out of the ground. The distance between the two was only about ten centimeters.

At the same time, Du Yuqi swung the giant sword lightly and chopped at the male ice worm's head with incredible accuracy. The place where the sword pierced was exactly the place where the shell had been charred and brittle by the previous sword.

Strictly speaking, the power of Du Yuqi's sword was not that great, but it was like the last straw that broke the camel's back. It directly broke through the opponent's defense and penetrated two or three centimeters into the body. Because Kulan's Flame Shadow Sword was of fire attribute, the moment it penetrated and came into contact with the male ice worm's body fluids, a slight "hiss" sound was heard, and wisps of green smoke came out.

Du Yuqi's attack was light, but it caused great pain to the male ice worm. It howled loudly and swept its head across, with a whistling sound and great power, but Du Yuqi dodged it easily.

Then he drew his sword and stabbed again. This time he aimed at the hole in the shell, and the sword penetrated at least half a meter deep. Pale green body fluids spurted out, which looked extremely painful.

Du Yuqi stirred it viciously, and the muscles of the male ice worm immediately tightened completely. Du Yuqi even had to use all his strength when drawing his sword! It then let out a shrill scream and dared not stay any longer. It shrunk back downwards and escaped forcefully. Du Yuqi was caught off guard for a moment and could only look at the black hole it escaped into and shook his head with a bitter smile.

At this time, someone suddenly said from afar:

"Your sword has damaged its insect core. Even if this creature is not dead, it will have to hibernate for two or three years. It won't live long."

Du Yuqi heard the voice and it sounded familiar. He immediately turned around and smiled:

"Lin, it's you! Is your friend FIRE's injury healed?"
