Twelve Frostramparts Formation!

Tiger Cub and Camus had no knowledge about this foreign spell which they had never seen or heard of before.

When Qin Ruo was going against the Twelve Zodiacs, he had only used it once when they ambushed them the first time. It was like once in a blue moon, appearing for such a brief moment that n.o.body paid any attention toward it. What most of the players paid attention to was the explosion caused by Qin Ruo"s Twelve Frostramparts Formation—the ferociousness of that overwhelming snowstorm which instantly took out the Elementalists!

Even though Tiger Cub and Camus had seen much in the game, but when they were faced with the blockade by Twelve Frostramparts Formation, they were instantly stunned from the shocking coldness from the front and immediately halted.

With the effects of the Darkfrost Potion, the freezing effect of the frost emanated by Twelve Frostramparts Formation had been increased by a whopping 54% which greatly reduces the movement speed of players! The freezing effect was so powerful that even Tiger Cub and Camus which were standing more than ten meters away from the Twelve Frostramparts Formation could notice that a layer of frost had spread over their bodies and equipment, greatly reducing their mobility. In this state, who would dare chase after Slayer"s Heart who had dove into the Twelve Frostramparts Formation as fast as a hare?

They had an intuition that if they had continued chasing after him, the effects of that strange formation of Frostramparts would increasingly affect them as they got nearer. Furthermore, they would have been forced to switch from offensive to defensive and even risk getting killed by the enemy.

In the end, both of them could only helplessly watch Slayer"s Heart escape into the formation of Frostramparts and disappear right before them!

Qin Ruo did not escape immediately, instead, he used his Elemental Perception to continue hindering the three Elementalist while hiding within the formation of Frostramparts. At the same time, he was waiting for his Aquamorph"s cooldown duration to end and Slayer"s Heart to retreat.

The Twelve Frostramparts Formation was cast secretly while the three Elementalists slowed down their pace of destroying the Frostramparts. It had eluded the attention of the three Elementalist, Tiger Cub, and Camus, thus achieving the element of surprise which allowed Slayer"s Heart to escape safely.

Within the next few seconds, although Tiger Cub and Camus had furiously ordered the three Elementalist to continue using AoE spells to obliterate the Frostramparts around them and they had also begun their attacks on the Frostramparts from their end, but Qin Ruo was one step ahead as he directed the Frostramparts to fly towards Tiger Cub and Camus"s direction.

The Field Commander and the legendary elite champion both turned tail and ran as fast as they could to dodge the Twelve Frostramparts Formation flying towards them.

Following after that, a loud explosion erupted in Silentdeath Jungle and the whole jungle was covered in snow!

Qin Ruo had disappeared without a trace when the explosion erupted before the Elementalists could reach him.

The fact that Slayer"s Heart and Qin Ruo successfully escaped from Tiger Cub and Camus made them extremely furious as they chastised the three Elementalists for their incompetence— the three of them were a disgrace for being trashed by a Level 40 Aquamancer that they did not deserve to join them in the Mythical Battlefield!

Slayer"s Heart and Qin Ruo who had just escaped from Tiger Cub and Camus"s party immediately disengaged from their combat status and without delay used their Return Scroll to return to Moonrise City.

They had escaped from danger successfully!

When Qin Ruo and Slayer"s Heart had left Moonrise City"s teleportation portal, they exchanged glances and could notice the faint smile they both had.

"Nice work!"

Slayer"s Heart laughed and raised his hand to give Qin Ruo a thumbs up.

"You were not bad yourself."

After receiving a compliment from Slayer"s Heart, Qin Ruo was flattered and complimented him in return. Next. he kept his Frostburst Staff, stood still on the spot and wiped the cold sweat on his forehead as he laughed happily—successfully escaping from a legendary champion is a noteworthy accomplishment itself.

The only regret they had was Gold Digger Babe"s sacrifice.

However, Qin Ruo and Slayer"s Heart was grateful with their current outcome!

Gold Digger Babe"s sacrifice was worth it by using the Dark Gold Equipment as bait luring the attention of Tiger Cub away. If she had not made that move, Tiger Cub would have continued to observe and wait for his chance to attack. If that had happened, Qin Ruo and the rest of their party could have been annihilated by Twelve Zodiacs.

Although Gold Digger Babe had lost a level and a piece of equipment, and they were unable to retrieve Saga"s Dark Gold Equipment, they were still satisfied with their current outcome.

After all, they were able to escape from Tiger Cub and three Field Commanders from Twelve Zodiacs. Furthermore, they were able to take out two of them, so it could be considered a victory for them.

A minute later, Gold Digger Babe happily rejoined them from the Resurrection Point, the beaming smile on her face had stopped her teammates which had prepared to console her.

Qin Ruo looks at her strangely and asked, "What"s the matter with you? Still so happy even though you dropped a level."

"Hehe."

"Make a guess." Gold Digger Babe grinned.

"I give up, you win," Qin Ruo said as he gave up guessing the answer.

"You cheeky girl, you must have been jumping with joy in the Resurrection Gallery because of the equipment right? What are the equipment"s attributes? Quickly let us all have a look," said Burning Rose.

Burning Rose and the rest of the girls were extremely excited as Gold Digger Babe was retrieving the equipment to show them. Everyone exclaimed delightfully with such vigor that the players around could not help but take notice of them.

Before Qin Ruo, Slayer"s Heart and the rest of the guys had the chance to have a look, the rest of the girls quickly urged them to leave.

"Let"s go quickly!"

"We can discuss it after we leave."

"We should return to town first."

Thus the group of ten teleported back to Savis Town and gathered at Champion"s Restaurant.

Finally at this moment, Qin Ruo and the rest of the guys had a chance to have a look at two equipment Gold Digger Babe took from Mu. Everyone except Qin Ruo and Slayer"s Heart showed a faint smile filled with joy and excitement while Brother Da and the rest had entered such a frenzied state of joy that they could flip the tables and jump down from the highest building in Savis Town.

"ARGHHHH!"

At Silentdeath Jungle, after Mu and Saga was resurrected by the Radiant Priests that arrived, Mu screamed with fury while Saga and Camus look at him with pity.

"Those b.a.s.t.a.r.ds! If they dare appear before me again, I"ll … grrrr… hisss… "

Mu after losing his Dark Gold Robe and Dark Gold Cape, was hissing furiously with a twisted expression. He had lost all his composure and look like a different man standing in the middle of Silentdeath Jungle with the urge to vent all his pent-up anger as he cursed uncontrollably at the shame that Qin Ruo, Slayer"s Heart, and Gold Digger Babe had brought upon him.

Suddenly!

A tall figure slowly approached him from behind. "If you had suffered defeat then stand up and get your revenge, don"t just stand here like a loser and scream, victory is not gained by just all talk and no action," said Tiger Cub disdainfully as his expression turned cold after Mu had paused venting his anger.

Once Mu had heard Camus speech, he immediately stopped and faced Tiger Cub awkwardly without the courage to look him in the eye. His chest heaved up and down as the rage within him had not fully subsided—in front of Tiger Cub, he had no choice but listen to him. After all, Tiger Cub is someone who was stronger than Saga! At the same time, he was one of the powerhouses in Twelve Zodiacs when they fought against other leagues and one of the Twelve Zodiacs key figure!

After noticing Mu had gradually calmed down, Tiger Cub disgruntedly said, "It won"t be long before the Mythical Battlefield will be lively again, if you still wish to seek revenge against Slayer"s Heart or Qin Ruo, you will get your chance! But before that happens, they probably would refrain from entering the Mythical Battlefield anytime soon. Hmph! All of you should keep in mind to train more after you return. You are all still far from reaching the level of a true Field Commander. Don"t let others know when we the Twelve Zodiacs League make a name for ourselves that you can"t even deal with a Tier 4 Aquamancer."

"Clan Leader Tiger Cub, rest a.s.sured that this will never happen again!"

"That"s right! After all Slayer"s Heart used to be the number one Field Commander of Bauhinia League, so he is undeniably stronger than us. But there"s nothing to worry about that Tier 4 Aquamancer. He was able to restrain me earlier probably because he had used some special potion, but this kind of little trick won"t work on me the second time," Mu and Camus said at the same time.

Saga kept quiet instead.

Tiger Cub look at both them with a strange look and laughed disdainfully as he said, "Little tricks?"

"With just Tier 1 Elementalism he had played three Elementalist like a fool, you call that little tricks? Mu… Camus… You guys had fought against him face to face. Not only did he successfully restrain three Elementalists, at the same time he helped Slayer"s Heart to take out both of you—do you still think that those were just little tricks?"

Tiger Cub"s face took on a ghastly expression as he raised his chin and look at the two of them, saying coldly, "I guess you guys don"t know the reason why my Cloak was suddenly disabled …"

Mu, Camus, and Saga realized in an instant with a shocked expression. Qin Ruo was the culprit behind it!

Tiger Cub did not even bother about their reaction and laughed self-deprecatingly as he said, "This was your so-called little trick. Hmph! Mana Drain. I never imagined that an Elementalist could have such a skill."
