Chapter 700: Ice Curse Dragon
A strong wind suddenly blew up in the arena.
The strong wind brought with it a cold wave, spreading the icy temperature to every corner in an instant. White frost formed on the ground in an instant, and even the air was filled with frost and snow that was enough to block the view.
Strong winds carrying snow and fog raged across the arena.
A large number of cone-like icicles exploded on the ground one after another, and the ground quickly turned into a layer of ice. The arena, which was originally full of artificial flavor, turned into solid ice in the blink of an eye.
This scene was as terrifying as a steel dragon running into the snowfield outside the wall and creating a tornado. Perhaps only the delta airflow and a clear sky could restore the weather to normal.
There is no doubt that the ability to achieve such a scene effect must be due to the detailed arrangements made by Gong Qiying for the appearance effects of the Ice Curse Dragon.
He prepared two alternative sets of appearance special effects, one with the theme of Frozen Dragon's ice, and the other with the theme of fire. Now it seems that the ice theme has been chosen.
At this time, it started snowing, heavy snow fell down, and the biting cold wind was raging everywhere.
It was magical. There was clearly no weather in the dungeon scene where Gong Qiying and his team fought. Even if the temperature was very low, it shouldn't have snowed. This was obviously beyond Yanhuo's cognition. When he saw the snowflakes fluttering, the fire in his heart was tangled into a twisted shape.
The answer is that there is an unknown Pokémon hiding in the corner that caused the snowy weather.
When the cold wave swept across the arena, the fire elemental creatures that came into contact with the cold wave suddenly turned from a high flame to a low simmer, as if someone had turned off a natural gas valve. The flames on their bodies visibly became smaller and smaller until they fluttered in the cold wind, and the fire was weaker than the matches sold by the little girl.
The Fire Lord roared, and the fire on his body suddenly grew stronger. The high temperature generated engulfed the cold wave that was forced in, and he regained his half of the territory in the cold wind!
The fire of the fire elemental creature, which had been getting weaker and weaker, finally stabilized, but it seemed that it was afraid of the cold and shrank back, not daring to move forward.
"What a powerful low temperature! This cooling effect exceeds that of common lord-level ice elemental creatures."
Yanhuo no longer "chatted" with Gong Qiying, but turned his attention to the extreme cold storm which he believed was created by the creature that appeared. The creator of this cold wave also walked out slowly in the biting cold wind.
Its white scales tending towards light blue almost blended in with the cold wave, but its limbs, which were thinner than those of other ancient dragons, made its outline visible in the cold wave. At first glance, this creature seemed to be made entirely of ice.
"dragon?"
There was no doubt that to Yanhuo, the appearance was that of a complete dragon.
However, the movements of the other party's limbs seemed to have a different feeling from the dragon he usually knew.
He thought about it seriously, and finally remembered how to describe that feeling.
“It has a more elegant feel.”
[Ice Curse Dragon] took steady steps, its icy body emerging from the biting cold fog.
It instantly opened its pair of dragon wings that were also covered with frost, and the sunlight mimicking the dungeon was projected onto the ice crystals, covering the body of the Ice Curse Dragon with a strange glow.
Yanhuo, who has always only liked elemental creatures, this time felt that he seemed to understand Chiya's taste.
He found the bright and beautiful feeling from the Ice Curse Dragon and the princess of the Silver Frost Kingdom!
Look at this graceful posture, this natural body, these ice crystals like pizza, this beautiful creature must look very
"It burns very well! Fire Lord, use the Big Fire Breath!"
With an even more excited tone, Yanhuo shouted out like a Pokémon trainer in battle.
The ice crystals on the Ice Curse Dragon looked truly beautiful, and how much more beautiful it must have been when melted by the intense heat of the flames! This was what his aesthetic sense told him!
Without wasting a single second, he had actually instructed the Fire Lord to secretly accumulate strength when the cold wave blew. At this moment, he directly ejected the hotter and more intense explosive flames after accumulating strength towards the Ice Curse Dragon!
If Chiya was in his position, he might hesitate before taking action, but he was different. He would act without hesitation.
A vortex of flames imitating the moves of the Furnace Golem spurted out from the chest of the Fire Lord. All the fire elemental creatures it encountered along the way merged into the vortex, and its power suddenly became stronger!
The ice crystals covering the ground were melted in an instant, and the ground along which the vortex of flames passed was instantly burned black and even melted. The ice crystals that had just covered the entire arena were about to be completely melted, and the vortex carrying high temperature also hit the front of the Ice Curse Dragon.
“!”
The Ice Curse Dragon let out a cry, and with the vibration of its dragon wings, it shot into the sky, avoiding the vortex in the sky.
Who is a good guy who can fight this thing head-on? He is not a berserker.
The moment it flew into the sky, clusters of ice cones bloomed under its feet. These ice cones, each taller than an adult, suddenly exploded, and the bursting ice instantly cut off the vortex of fire.
As a result, the vortex completely failed to hit Gong Qiying who was right behind him.
In Yanhuo's design, if the Ice Curse Dragon dodges, the flame vortex can directly attack Gong Qiying. If he resists head-on, he also added some ingredients to the flame vortex to make the power explode even more.
And he also took into account the situation where the vortex of straight shooting was cut off!
"Chase it!"
At Yanhuo's command, the spiral vortex suddenly split into two long flaming snakes, circling and biting towards the Ice Curse Dragon from different directions!
The flame snake's body expanded instantly, and its bloody mouth opened wide, looking like it could swallow the Ice Dragon in one gulp!
But at this moment, the heavy snow is still falling, and it is still snowing.
The power of frost will be further enhanced under the snow!
The Ice Curse Dragon slightly adjusted its position by vibrating its wings and nimbly avoided the attack.
When the two long snakes were coiled together, it blew out a breath of cold air, and the place it attacked was exactly where the two long snakes gathered!
At the moment when the cold air and flames intertwined, a strange sound exploded in the air. The scene that Gong Qiying expected was happening - the cold air directly broke through the flames that seemed to have more momentum!
The cold air spewed out by the Ice Curse Dragon does not seem to be that strong, but the low temperature and momentum are far beyond imagination, worthy of the power to turn volcanoes into frozen soil.
The breath of cold air cut off the vortex of flames and landed on the ground at the same time. A straight line of frost formed on the ground and rushed straight to where the flames were. Wherever the frost was covered, ice clusters grew everywhere!
“Wha-what!?”
Yanhuo's surprised voice came from the communication. This voice was like the classic sound effect of being defeated. The listener should feel a sense of satisfaction from it.
However, to Gong Qiying, this sound seemed a little too classic, so classic that it felt deliberate.
The ice clusters formed on the ground rushed straight towards the place where the flames were, and it seemed that they were about to hit the dragon directly. However, the huge body of the Fire Lord seemed to be moving slowly at this moment. It was just using the flame vortex to attack the breath, and it was impossible to cancel the release of the vortex and lower its head to defend in such a short time.
Then, the fire elemental creatures scattered on the ground visibly rushed towards the breath in panic, trying to stop the spread of the frost!
However, with their own strength, it would be difficult for them to keep the flames burning when faced with such low temperatures, and when they rushed forward they suffered a direct impact of the cold.
The ice clusters exploded the moment the fire elemental creatures approached, and the scattered tiny ice crystals penetrated the objects of these fire elemental creatures like dense shotgun shells.
The flames that were swaying in the cold wave suddenly went out at this moment, and the melted ice surface was refilled with the explosion of ice crystals, leaving no trace of their existence at all.
All this happened in an instant. The speed of the spread of frost was not slowed down at all. At this moment, it had already hit the place where the flames were. Even though he was behind the thick wall, he could still feel the biting cold.
Very good, let's just clear his HP in one go! The essence of battle is to attack the opponent's summoner directly!
However, at this moment, Yanhuo's tone suddenly changed, and he laughed calmly and said to himself:
"Just as I expected."
He invested more mental power in an instant, and the body of the Fire Lord suddenly solidified. He then merged the flames transformed from these mental powers into a vortex of flames and sprayed them out.
It seems that it has no intention of returning to defend its own city lord, and is completely focused on fighting the Ice Curse Dragon?
It was at this moment when the power of the flame vortex increased greatly that Yanhuo's backup plan, which had been planned long ago, was put into action.
Several ice-blue figures appeared in this area which was extremely hot due to the presence of the Fire Lord. Those figures seemed to be made entirely of ice and were ice elemental creatures!
And it looks quite high-end!
They suddenly appeared at this moment and exerted all their control over frost on the ice of the Frost Curse Dragon!
So that's how it is. He wanted to use the same trick to suck the Ice Curse Dragon dry as he did to the Furnace Golem just now!
"So you're not a professional fire player." Gong Qiying's tone was helpless, like an honest man who found out he had been cheated. He felt that he should be considered an honest man.
To be honest, he was really prepared to fight against the opponent who was using all fire elemental creatures, but he didn't expect that the opponent would suddenly send out a group of ice elemental creatures.
However, this situation is not a big problem.
"When did I ever say I only know how to use the element of fire? I'm a philanthropist and I love all elements!"
Yanhuo's triumphant voice roared out from the communication. This moment was his favorite part of pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger!
"All the city lords I've fought know that I can manipulate more than one element, but no news has ever spread. Do you know why, Godwin?"
Gong Qiying laughed and curled his lips, saying, "Everyone wants to watch others step into the same pit they stepped into."
The city lords like to cheat people, not just adventurers. It seems that cheating other city lords is also part of their fun.
The controlling power of the ice elemental creature has covered the frost of the Frost Dragon. In the next second, it will be able to absorb all of it to complete the "Jedi counterattack" drama, sucking out the magic power of the Frost Dragon in one breath and then using the Lord of Fire to finish it off!
This is the tactic that Yanhuo has used time and again when fighting against other city lords!
His operational awareness does seem to be much higher than that of the Erchao dungeon that Gong Qiying had fought against before.
"Prepare new monsters in advance, Godwin. If you're worried about your mental strength, just throw it in! Eeh wua ...
Before Yanhuo could finish his words, he suddenly made a strange cry, just like Unka did at the battle festival.
As for why he suddenly made such an inappropriate sound, it was of course because—
A huge amount of ice clusters directly attacked where he was, and the unbearable extreme low temperature suddenly caused an impact!
The control of ice elemental creatures is completely ineffective!
"What's going on? What's going on?!"
He didn't even have time to turn off the communication. Now the frost was already at his feet. His fortress was crumbling and about to collapse, and he was declared a failure. He quickly commanded the Fire Lord to burst out with flames, using the flames of the Furnace Golem he had just absorbed to fight against the cold wave. After a burst of flames, he was able to barely withstand the attack.
Looking at the fortress that was severely damaged and about to collapse if hit again, Yanhuo's eyes were filled with confusion, and the same emotion was reflected on the faces of those ice elemental creatures.
What happened? Didn’t their control work just now?
"That's the taste." Gong Qiying laughed.
The current situation vividly illustrates that a smile will not disappear, but will only be transferred from other people's faces.
It’s fun when city lords play tricks on each other!
Gong Qiying had never thought that Yanhuo could control other elemental creatures.
However, when he saw that the other party could clearly summon more fire elemental monsters to resist the cold wave but did not do so, and let the ice rush to his face, he guessed that the other party must have some backup plan that made him not afraid of the ice.
The result was an ice elemental creature that could control magical ice, which was somewhat within his expectations.
Yanhuo said that he likes to cheat people, but Gong Qiying is no exception.
"What did you just do? Why can't I control it?!"
Yanhuo's surprised voice came out loudly. He had fought a lot of dungeon battles in all these years since his debut, but this was the first time he encountered an element that he could not control.
"Just like you said, it's a scam."
Without the Fire Lord's counterattack, the Frost Dragon flapped its wings gracefully, and the icy mist instantly filled the entire arena, its body disappearing into the mist.
Yanhuo quickly replenished the Fire Lord while unwillingly letting the ice elemental creature control the ice fog again.
However, something that made him full of puzzlement happened again, and he still couldn't control it!
"What's going on!"
Gong Qiying heard the sound of someone smashing the wall from the opposite side.
This is the power of Monster Hunter Science!
The Ice Curse Dragon is an ancient dragon famous for its control over the power of ice. It has the ability to change the environment and even the celestial phenomena with its cold air. Doesn't this description seem quite magical?
However, the method of controlling the power of ice is not magic, but a very "scientific" method.
The Ice Curse Dragon's body stores a substance that has reached a temperature below the freezing point but is still in a liquid state, similar to supercooled water. Once this liquid is released, it will immediately solidify into a solid when it is hit.
Under the micro-control of the Glacial Dragon, any huge ice shield, ice spear or ice in other forms can be released. The ice clusters generated on the ground by its frost breath rely on this principle.
It's very scientific, extremely scientific, and it doesn't rely on any magical power at all!
The ice cubes made in this way are not the product of magic, but a gift from nature!
Logically speaking, ice elemental creatures should also have a certain degree of control over ice in nature, but judging from the current situation, Yanhuo has used all of his elemental creature talents to control magical elements, so his control over natural elements is much weaker.
This choice is actually quite correct. After all, if the enemy uses elements during the battle, they basically use magical elements, and natural elements cannot be used in most cases.
But unfortunately, the battle now is against Sion's dungeon, and what Sion often does is only in very rare cases outside of most situations.
Of course, Gong Qiying didn't intend to explain the Ice Control Principle of the Frost Dragon to Yanhuo in detail. What he had to do was to launch an attack and make the final decision before the opponent could react!
Yanhuo heard the sound of ice solidifying in the icy fog, and a strong sense of threat suddenly emerged, causing the flames in his body to stop for a moment.
The Ice Curse Dragon emerged from the mist, but its form had changed.
More ice appeared on its body, as if it was covered with a thin layer of armor, and its slender tail completely turned into a knight's spear.
The dragon wings covered with ice crystals are even more gorgeous, but even more gorgeous are the sharp horns on its head that have grown from the condensed ice crystals.
From a distance, it looks like a coronation crown!
This is a special state in which the Ice Curse Dragon can enhance the power of ice, allowing it to launch more powerful attacks.
For example, it’s like a big move.
“!”
Yanhuo suddenly felt something was wrong, and with a flick of his finger he was about to put more mental power into the Fire Lord.
But when he saw something, the action of investing his mental energy suddenly stopped, as if he hesitated.
In this moment of hesitation, the Ice Curse Dragon swooped down.
Release all the ice power you can control towards the flames in one breath!
