Chapter 252: Questions From Kant
Fatal frost was a group attack spell.
Unlike the lightning summoning spell, which was used specifically for high-value individual targets, this was a spell that targeted the troops. The range was 50 meters by 50 meters, and the terrifying deep frost would bloom from the center like a flower.
If it was cast properly, it could cost an entire elite team at one time.
This was one of the most important spells of battle mages.
However, when this kind of group attack spell exploded in a small s.p.a.ce, such as the throat of an abyssal demon, the harsh cold current that erupted crazily from the inside out was as fitting as its name.
Fatal frost!
At least -30 ° low temperature cold current erupted violently.
Like gunpowder that had been ignited, it spread wildly in all directions.
However, the narrow mouth could not allow the cold current to spread. When some of the cold current shot out of the mouth, even more cold current rushed straight into the depths of the throat, squeezing the muscles of the throat without the slightest obstruction. As long as there were any openings that could be pa.s.sed through, it would drill in with an unstoppable force.
Including the windpipe, stomach, intestines, and even the various unique tracheas in the demon’s body, they were all forcefully drilled into by the cold current to wreak havoc. Even the “opening” under the tail spewed out a foul-smelling green cold current!
“Argh –”
Aamon Qieke’s despairing howl suddenly ended.
It was already unable to make any more sounds. Even the life in its eyes had faded.
Its throat was frozen, its vocal cords were frozen, and its windpipe was frozen. Its entire lungs were frozen, including its heart and stomach, all the way to its intestines and the b.u.t.t. They were all frozen into ice as the terrifying cold current spread.
However, the flames of h.e.l.l were still burning in its eyes.
As a superior demon, its cells and body contained a little of the aura of the flames of h.e.l.l.
That was why Aamon Qieke had not died.
However, even if it did not die, it still had to kneel on the ground and fall heavily into the ruins of the underground city. It became a fish on the chopping board and completely lost the qualification to compete with Kant.
That’s right, it lost the battle.
When the cold current spread, the result was already destined.
Kant calmly waved his hand forward.
The Rhodok sergeants who were scattered around understood his meaning.
The glaives in their hands were emitted a sizzling corrosive sound because they were stained with demon blood. This meant that the weapons in their hands needed to be reforged.
However, there were still some people whose weapons were not affected.
They quickly walked forward and arrived in front of Aamon Qieke, who was breathing weakly. They raised their heavy halberds high up.
“Ka –”
The halberds swung down, and a slight sound of metal clas.h.i.+ng could be heard.
The area around its neck was heavily affected by the cold current.
Seven mages shot 14 waves of fatal frost towards Aamon Qieke’s mouth and throat. The cold that exploded almost instantly turned his neck into a hard block of ice.
As the sergeants slashed with their axes and halberds, cracks appeared on its neck along with the sound of metal clas.h.i.+ng.
“Crack Crack Crack Crack –”
The cracks grew bigger and bigger.
The dark red blood, along with the muscles and vertebrae, completely turned into pieces. This made Aamon Qieke, a terrifying upper-level demon who once had a glorious history, beheaded on the spot.
There was no blood spurting out because the cold current had already frozen his body.
“It’s over,”, Kant said.
His voice was very calm.
Because on his retina, the system interface refreshed once again.
[ Ding… After your tireless efforts, the main quest has been completed ]
[ Main Quest: Kill the abyssal demon ]
[ Reward: Random village ]
[ Introduction: You have used your wisdom to deal with this cunning and violent abyssal demon. Standing in the ruins of this ancient underground city, you can vaguely see how glorious the civilization used to be, but now there are only ruins and relics left. Time can change everything. You have a lot of emotions about this. ]
The system gave a notification box.
Kant’s heart returned to calmness. This proved that the abyssal demon whose neck was cut off had completely died.
But looking at the ruins in front of him and the broken corpses.
“Calculate the casualties.”
Kant waved his hand.
He slowly walked forward. In reality, the casualties were not heavy.
The powerful spells of the mages played a huge role. In addition, the abyssal demon Aamon Qieke had not recovered his peak combat strength, so he was humiliated and tortured to death by the ordinary soldiers.
This was the victory of the conventional troop cla.s.s.
Perhaps the mages were not conventional, but they did count in the battle sequence of the Enfath Empire.
If an unconventional troop of the Enfath Empire appeared.
Perhaps it would be the Storm t.i.tan army that was more than ten meters tall, could throw terrifying thunder spears, could attack the enemy from an extremely long distance, and was also strong in close combat!
The Storm t.i.tan was not weaker than the powerful existence of the abyssal demons at their peak.
“My Lord.”
The captain of Rhodok sergeants walked over. “The results are out.”
“Speak.”Kant said.
“In this battle, exactly ten people died in battle. No one was injured,”, the captain said solemnly.
“Ten people. The casualties are not bad.”
Kant nodded. These casualties were really nothing.
When he had ordered the attack on this abyss demon, he had expected that more than half of the soldiers would die in battle, and even the entire army would be wiped out.
After all, he had already witnessed the terror of an abyssal demon.
Turning his head, Kant looked at the mages.
These seven middle-aged mages had a calm expression.
“Very good.”
Kant nodded his head in praise.
It was precisely because they had played a huge role that the casualties of their own troops were reduced.
The mages smiled and bowed.
Kant turned his head to look at the underground city. Although part of the city had been reduced to ruins, but from a rough look, the streets and houses were barely intact. The surrounding city walls and the Mayan pyramid-shaped temple in the distance were basically undamaged, one could vaguely see the grandeur and greatness of the underground city.
At the end, there were buildings built directly on the rock ma.s.s, including the excavation of bunkers and the excavation of various pits. It looked like a tunnel and a dark hole led to the living environment. Everything was in place.
Obviously, this underground city used to be very prosperous. Otherwise, there wouldn’t be such a complete set of facilities.
“Could this be a trade transit station?”
Kant thought.
The underground river was 20 meters wide and nearly 4 meters deep. Although the current was rapid, the surface of the water was quite smooth. It was the best transportation river. Moreover, when entering the karst cave, he did find traces of the dock on the stone platform, the deliberately widened river channel and the slightly protruding stone pillars on both sides of the river channel were all evidence.
But what puzzled Kant was why the race that had been wiped out in history would build such an ancient pa.s.sage between the subterranean river and its banks, as well as a huge underground city and a temple formed from hollowed-out mountains?
These were all the doubts and questions in his heart.
