Chapter 1728: Chapter 1728: Shadow Snow

The entire area seemed to have transformed into an icy snow world, with lifelike ice sculptures displayed in various poses.

But such a beautiful scene made the viewers’ skin crawl with a tingling sensation.

Inside the passageway, and outside it forming a massive fan-shaped zone with the entrance as the point, only a few players survived; all other lives were immediately reduced to zero.

This time, although there is no precise statistic, at least over two thousand people were frozen into ice sculptures.

"Disperse!"

The Blue Dragon Queen said calmly as a blue shock wave spread out once more.

As the blue shock wave spread, those ice sculptures and ice blocks instantly turned into a sky full of ice shards.

"Gather!"

After the shock wave passed, the ice shards in the sky converged, and the snow and ice solidified into extremely hard ice that blocked most of the entrance passage.

The originally spacious passage, which could comfortably allow a dozen people to walk side by side, now only allowed two people to pass through.

The solid ice was adorned with mysterious runes, reinforcing the ice corridor formed by it.

At this moment, an empty area appeared near the Starfire entrance on the square.

The players who hadn’t turned into ice sculptures had yet to recover from the recent shock.

They originally thought that the Blue Dragon Queen’s spell was just for assistance and restriction, lowering the temperature here, but the follow-up magic was beyond their expectations.

Just now, the United Army’s attack formation on Starfire was too dense, leaving no room to dodge; only a few invincible and quick-reacting players survived by sheer luck.

The rest, within the Blue Dragon Queen’s spell range, were all killed.

Such terrifying power, although not as frenzied as the Black Dragon Queen’s magic, was still shocking enough, having killed so many people at once.

One moment, they were full of passion, and the next, they were chilled to the bone.

This blow hit hard; it was evident that Starfire was barely holding on, clearly about to win, yet the sudden change was hard to accept.

"Resurrect the Guardian Angel."

Even though the Enchantress was equally shocked, it did not affect her judgment, and she immediately ordered the resurrection of the Guardian Angel.

Angel had been waiting for this order and immediately began resurrecting.

"Lady in Blue, is this solid ice strong enough?" the Enchantress asked, needing to understand the strength of the solid ice to better plan her strategy.

The Blue Dragon Queen replied, "Absolute ice. I used my secret arts. It won’t be breached quickly, though there is a time limit. In a stable state, it can last for two hours, after which the strength gradually decreases."

"That’s enough."

The Enchantress personally tested; her dagger could only scrape off a tiny bit of ice.

Even the warrior in the guild found it difficult to shake the solid ice with a sledgehammer, convincing the Enchantress of the Blue Dragon Queen’s words.

Having understood the situation, she had new plans in mind. With this passage, they’d face fewer enemies.

More importantly, the ice passage wasn’t too high, just under three yards.

A tall tank could block the passage; unlike the upper road, the enemy’s long-range attacks would be limited, unable to reach Starfire Team’s rear.

Of course, this passage also restricted Starfire’s long-range. But compared to the enemy’s attack, Starfire’s long-range was much weaker, and neither side could attack the other’s rear; Starfire had a slight advantage.

"That was terrifying. I thought we were going to be wiped out just now. I was ready to run," Tong Tong said, still shaken.

"It was the boss who saved us from danger. Let’s see what these bastards do now."

At this moment, many Starfire members finally reacted. They were equally amazed and thought they would fail this time, just like Tong Tong.

"Damn it, we were about to win, just a bit more."

"This Praire Fire is just off the charts, such accumulation isn’t something we can contend with."

"One Dragon Queen is enough, but there’s a second one. Damn, I’m a Hunter too, and my pet is decent, but it’s only of race level. Their weakest is high race level; it’s infuriating when you compare."

"Isn’t that obvious? Now the big guilds are all vying for real power within their factions. Who doesn’t know the difficulty involved? They are the number five figure among the high elves. Did you think their reputation was made up?"

"You alien guys are used to being arrogant, really think you’re all that. Yes, overall you’re stronger, but our top players are no slouches. You were boasting about surpassing Prairie Fire; what now?"

"Damn Earthlings, whose side are you on anyway?"

"Why are we fighting internally again? We’re the commanders; we should stay calm, okay?"

"Now, on one hand, arrange siege weapons to attack the ice and see if we can break through. If we break it, Starfire won’t hold. On the other hand, Prairie Fire is outside; it’s the perfect time to hunt him."

"That’s right, the main goal is to hunt Prairie Fire. If we kill him, his pets will naturally dissipate, and this so-called spell will disappear."

"Each team sends out their elite to kill Prairie Fire."

Despite the recent setback nearly causing the United Army to collapse, the commanders started arguing, but Li Yao still being outside gave them new opportunities and hope.

The United Army began setting up machinery on roads leading to the square, then started bombing the icy entrance.

Meanwhile, Li Yao flew up to the dome, shooting an engineering machine with his arrow like a meteor.

"Prairie Fire, prepare to die. Without your teammates’ protection, you dare to be alone outside, truly courageous."

"He’s always been so arrogant, thinking he’s the best in the world. I’ll manipulate the strings; you be the puppet."

Strings quickly wrapped around Li Yao, immobilizing him.

Li Yao then saw a rogue unfurling his wings not far away, holding a bundle of dark threads, suddenly tightening them.

"Puppet manipulation, impressive. So you want to control me?" Li Yao hovered in the air.

"No need to control you for long. He controls, I hunt."

The first speaker was below; she belonged to the Shadow Clan, a born rogue assassin.

Seeing Li Yao controlled, her figure suddenly vanished.

Li Yao saw a dark shadow zip to his front, not holding daggers but two gray army spikes instead.

"Impressive, but still not enough." He spread his wings and used his emblem to break free of the control.

Shadow Bound!

The Phantom Assassin’s shadow fell like a hook; she seemed to transform into a real shadow, directly entwining with Li Yao’s shadow below.

"You’ve been tricked. The real control is by Shadow Snow, I’m the assassin."

At this moment, the ball of thread not far from Li Yao was flicked, and Shadow Step!

When he stepped behind Li Yao, a dagger appeared in his hand, and the other hand’s thread ball also wound around Li Yao’s shoulder, quickly creeping toward his neck.

The dagger in his hand also glinted, about to descend...

P.S.: Adjusting the schedule these days, it’s painful...
