Chapter 89: Viridian Giantflame Defeated

On one side, there was a Radiant Priest from Netherspirit’s Claw and a Tier 4 Fire-Type Summoned Monster, the Viridian Giantflame Wolf. On the other side, there was merely a normal Tier 3 Aquamancer with normal equipment…

Witnessing such a showdown, any player who was familiar with H&G would have never thought it possible for the Tier 3 Aquamancer to possess the strength to evenly rival the opponent before him. And killing his opponent, that was the biggest joke that anyone could hear that day!

Nevertheless, it was really unexpected that things actually took a different turn…

Right before the eyes of more than 20 Tier 4 players, Crackpot and the Viridian Giantflame Wolf had just smashed two Frostramparts before they were greeted by a tremendous cold breeze, which suddenly rose up and placed the two of them into an enhanced Frozen status effect right away…

The Snow Domain, which was already extremely cold had abruptly become even colder by 10 °C. Not only did the cold airstreams that cut into the bone moved at a speed visible to the naked eye, the airstreams rapidly covered Crackpot’s entire body with a thin layer of ice. It appeared crystal clear, weakening his mobility by 30 %. Even the Fire-Type Monster Viridian Giantflame Wolf had been heavily suppressed by that bitter cold the moment when it set foot into the Twelve Frostramparts Formation—In the environment of the natural Snow Domain, the attribute of the Twelve Frostramparts Formation appeared to have received a temporary boost. The flames around the body of the Tier 4 monster had been suppressed by the cold air of the Frostramparts Formation to the point that the sparks of fire were no longer seen. What others could see was that the monster was shivering from top to bottom. Its movement speed and its attack speed were greatly limited at the same time.

When he engaged the two opponents in front of him, Qin Ruo remained standing at the back of a Frostrampart of two meters tall as he continued to shuttle the other Frostramparts. The Frostramparts within the Frostramparts Formation then rapidly rising abruptly out of the ground like bamboo shoots after a spring rain. They appeared like giant fortresses as they swiftly trapped Crackpot and the Viridian Giantflame Wolf into an igloo once again. The visions of the man and the monster had been completely sealed off into the igloo, giving not even the slightest chance for Crackpot to strike back.

Poor Crackpot… His ability had utterly fallen short on his wishes at that very moment. Under the influence of the horrific cold airstreams in the surroundings, not only his limbs were stiffened up by the bone cutting coldness, even the air he breathed out had instantly frozen into crystalline form… his nerves seemed to be on the brink of getting completely frozen!

His initial intention was to prepare to launch an AoE Magic Attack, Psystorm. But after getting blocked by a Frostrampart right in his face, the attack that he launched could not even completely destroy a Frostrampart. He also missed a precious chance to attack his opponent for no reason. When he thought about casting his magic again, he only discovered that his speed of casting Magic was almost as slow as the movement speed of a tortoise. The Tier 4 Vigilance Hammer would require at least six seconds before it could be successfully cast.

So, he decided to turn his focus towards giving a command to his Viridian Giantflame Wolf. But then he also discovered that the Fire-Type monster was being oppressively restrained in the Frostrampart Formation. Not only the Fire-Type Magic Damage had been weakened by 30 %, but its attack speed was also equally slow as his. Even if its attack was successfully launched at the opponent, the attacks would no longer have the momentum and the effects when it broke open the igloo a while ago. Its power had greatly dropped.

Until this very moment, Crackpot was truly horrified to realize that the strength of this Tier 3 Aquamancer was astoundingly powerful to such an extent… No wonder that brat was daring enough to voice out for a challenge back when they were at the entrance to the Ruins. Players who possessed control skills and strength of such would certainly have quite a proudful self-esteem. Certainly, Qin Ruo would not have a say at all after getting disrespected and called a rookie.

Unfortunately, it was already too late to regret now…

Not long after being trapped in the igloo, Crackpot heard the System Notification saying that the Tier 4 Summoned Monster, Viridian Giantflame Wolf had died—The existence of the Fire-Type Monster was basically the greatest threat to the Frostramparts. Its existence was also the greatest uncertain factor to the Twelve Frostramparts Formation. In order to prevent any unwarranted accident from happening, Qin Ruo gulped down a bottle of Intermediate Mana Potion and set the Viridian Giantflame Wolf as the primary target as he began bombarding his attacks upon it.

Under ordinary circumstances, taking out a Level 40 Fire-Type Monsters was extremely difficult…

But doing that in the middle of the Twelve Frostramparts Formation, a special skill that was used to deal with a Boss. The battle with the monster had become rather easy. Not to mention that they were currently in the land of ice, Qin Ruo could even skip steps while he was condensing water into ice. He straight away summoned some Frost Arrows from the ice beneath his feet. He then shot the Frost Arrows into waist of the Viridian Giantflame Wolf, which had its Defense weakened a little while it was caught in a deadlock.

Who asked it to be a wolf? Slaughtering wolf was what Qin Ruo had been doing to make a living all along…

In mere seconds, Qin Ruo had succeeded in landing a Perfect K.O on the Viridian Giantflame Wolf!

At that time, poor Crackpot was finally able to complete casting a Tier 4 Vigilance Hammer… He slammed the attack upon one of the Frostramparts and shattered it into pieces just to sadly discover that there was another backup Frostrampart right behind the one he shattered.

In the next moment, a roar filled with intense rage that carried along with an unreconciled sense rose up hysterically from the Frostrampart as the roar continued to echo far into the distance of the Snow Domain in all directions…

From afar, the eyes of Ironjail River and other people looked dignified. None of them actually knew what function those more than 10 Frostramparts that were set up by Qin Ruo was. They were even not clear about what exactly happened at the battlefield within the Frostramparts. However, judging from Crackpot’s raging roar, everyone could hear that his voice was filled with a strong unwillingness to reconcile. It was pure rage, but it no longer carried even the slightest will to fight… perhaps, his voice was also carrying a hint of helplessness as he was unwilling to admit his defeat.

At that moment, the faces of the crowd including Ironjail River suddenly changed.

Crackpot had been defeated!

Even after he summoned a Viridian Giantflame Wolf, he still lost to that Tier 3 Aquamancer. He also seemed to be convinced with his defeat…

Having a clear common view, the crowd in the surroundings looked at each other.

…

A few seconds later, nearly 20 Frostramparts were reduced into particles of white frosts as they drifted along into the air and vanished from the battlefield. About 10 pairs of eyes were fixed on a human figure that was gradually getting clearer by the second in the middle of the snow.

The final victor of the battle was really him—Qin Ruo remained standing quietly on the ground with that Tier 3 small physique of his. However, in the eyes of the others, he seemed much taller at that very moment.

Ironjail River took a deep breath as his eyes turned sharp all of a sudden. He then took a quick glance at Crackpot’s corpse that was lying right behind Qin Ruo, and also the Viridian Giantflame Wolf’s corpse. Only God knows what was on his mind now. But even though the people of the Netherspirit’s Claw were irritated by the fact that Qin Ruo had embarrassed them in public, among the players who possessed true strength, they actually felt even more respectful and admire towards Qin Ruo deep in their hearts.

A Tier 3 player was capable of defeating a Tier 4 Radiant Priest who had used a Tier 4 Summoning Crystal Core… That sort of incident had never occurred before in the entire history of H&G. That being said, Qin Ruo’s strength need not be questioned.

Violetmoon Devilite and Grand Magi seemed overjoyed by the look on their faces. Although they only worked together with Qin Ruo for the first time, and they were merely having an employer-employee relationship, that battle had deeply astounded them. Qin Ruo had shattered the wrong impression towards him that had been existed all along in the hearts of many—So it seemed that a Tier 3 player could also become this strong! Only Blue Princess and Grandiose Dragon who looked down upon Qin Ruo were staring at someone who should be lying dead on the land of snow as their mood were extremely depressed. Their eyes seemed complicated as they were blinking relentlessly…

Qin Ruo had yet to know that he had become the focal point of everyone. He remained on the spot as he was staring blankly at the corpse on the ground. After a while, he finally moved his feet a little to walk as he muttered to himself with a voice that was almost inaudible. “He didn’t even drop a single piece of equipment… he wasted my two bottles of potions…” Someone seemed to have forgotten that he defeated his opponent in a duel…
