The man with the lizard tail was adamant, insisting on ownership of the giant elephant.
The hunting team argued their case forcefully and refused to budge an inch.
The blonde girl remained silent throughout, her golden eyes calm and unwavering, as if everything before her was irrelevant to her, and she simply watched indifferently.
After a brief standoff, a fierce glint flashed in the lizard man's eyes, and he launched an attack without warning!
He suddenly drew the large steel sword from his back, his massive body displaying astonishing speed. The blade tore through the air with a muffled whistling sound, slashing straight at the dog-eared man standing slightly in front!
This strike was powerful and heavy; if it landed, the dog-eared man would have no chance of survival!
"careful!"
The bunny-eared girl reacted the fastest, letting out a cry of alarm and, disregarding her own safety, lunged at the dog-eared man, shoving him aside!
boom!
The lizard man's steel knife slammed down on the spot where the dog-eared man had just stood, instantly blasting a huge crater into the hard frozen ground, sending rubble and snow flying everywhere!
The enormous impact sent the dog-eared man and the rabbit-eared girl who had just regained their footing flying again.
The lizard man missed his first attack, and his eyes burned with even more ferocity. With a flick of his wrist, the huge steel blade rose again and swept towards the dog-eared man and the rabbit-eared girl who had fallen to the ground, intending to cut them in half at the waist!
"Stop!" the tiger-eared man roared, his figure moving like lightning, instantly blocking in front of his teammate, his greatsword slashing upwards in an attempt to parry.
clang--!
The piercing sound of metal clashing echoed across the snow-covered plains!
The tiger-eared man's arms trembled violently, his tiger's mouth split open, and his greatsword almost slipped from his grasp. He was forced back by the immense force, his blood churning.
At the same time, the bear-eared man roared and swung his large sword from the side, slashing it down hard at the lizard man's back!
However, the lizard man seemed to have eyes in the back of his head, and his thick, scaly lizard tail lashed out like a steel whip!
boom!
With a muffled thud, before the bear-eared man's broadsword could fall, he was struck squarely in the abdomen by a tail whip!
He groaned, his burly body flying several meters away like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily into the snow, unable to get up for a moment.
Seeing her teammates being injured one after another, a resolute glint flashed in the rabbit-eared girl's eyes.
She endured the injuries she sustained from knocking down her companion, sprang up from the snow, and pushed her speed to the limit, becoming a white blur as she thrust her short knife straight at the blonde girl who had been watching coldly from the sidelines!
She judged that this young girl was the key!
Faced with the bunny-eared girl's lightning-fast attack, the blonde girl finally moved.
She simply raised her right hand slightly, extending a slender, fair finger.
hum!
A point of dazzling golden light condensed at her fingertips, instantly transforming into an incomparably scorching golden ray, silent yet so fast that it surpassed the limits of visual perception, shooting straight at the rabbit-eared girl's heart!
The bunny-eared girl's pupils contracted sharply, and the shadow of death instantly loomed over her!
She instinctively held the dagger horizontally in front of her chest to block!
laugh--!
A sickening screech of melting metal rang out!
Her steel dagger was easily pierced and melted like butter in the face of the golden rays!
The ray continued its trajectory without slowing down, instantly piercing through her right scapula!
"Ouch!" The bunny-eared girl cried out in pain. The huge impact sent her tumbling more than ten meters across the snow, leaving a shocking trail of blood.
She struggled to get up, but the penetrating wound in her right shoulder caused her excruciating pain, and half of her body was numb.
The blonde girl's golden eyes remained indifferent, as if she had merely crushed an ant.
She raised her hand again, and golden light re-condensed at her fingertips, aiming at the rabbit-eared girl lying on the ground.
This time, the target will be her head.
"Be careful!!!"
At this critical moment, Sheena, who had been watching anxiously, could no longer hold back!
As she watched her beloved bunny-eared sister about to die, fear and worry overwhelmed her reason, and she screamed in despair!
The blonde girl paused slightly, her golden eyes instantly turning toward the source of the sound—the direction of the iceberg.
For the first time, her gaze changed; it was no longer indifferent, but rather carried a hint of seriousness.
As she sensed and pinpointed the source of the sound, a figure appeared before her without warning, as if by magic, just a step away!
It was Lu Mingfei!
The instant Sheena screamed, he activated the Void Dragon Step, moving faster than the blonde girl could react.
He stood there quietly, blocking the blonde girl's deadly ray aimed at the bunny-eared girl, his face calm as he spoke:
"How about you stop for my sake?"
His voice was not loud, but it was clearly heard by everyone present.
"Roar! You're asking for death!" The lizard man was furious when he saw someone daring to approach the blonde girl.
He abandoned the tiger-eared man, his massive body radiating a ferocious aura as he swung his steel blade down fiercely towards the back of Lu Mingfei's head!
The blade whistled, determined to cleave this arrogant fool in two!
However, the broadsword, carrying the force of a thunderbolt, abruptly stopped just a palm's width away from Lu Mingfei's head!
Because a cold and authoritative voice rang out:
"Stop, Witt."
Witt's massive body stiffened abruptly, and the ferocious expression on his face instantly transformed into respect and obedience.
He slowly sheathed his sword, the massive steel blade hanging at his side, and bowed slightly in the direction of the blonde girl.
"Yes, Lord Tyr."
Chapter 192 Encounter in the Snowfield (Part 2)
Sheena felt a blur before her eyes, and the sensation beneath her suddenly vanished, replaced by a wave of icy air enveloping her.
She stumbled and regained her balance, then looked up in astonishment...
Lu Mingfei's figure appeared like a ghost hundreds of meters away, steadily blocking the golden-haired girl who exuded a deadly aura!
"My lord!" Sheena's heart clenched, but the next second, her gaze fell on the glaring red patch on the snow not far away.
It's Sister Liv!
The fear was instantly replaced by an even stronger worry.
Without the slightest hesitation, Sheena immediately burst out from behind the icicle where she was hiding, rushing towards the fallen rabbit-eared girl like a frightened fawn.
Her footsteps were exceptionally clear on the silent snowfield.
Witt's muscles tensed instantly, and his thick, scaly tail rose slightly, gleaming with a metallic sheen.
He watched Sheena warily, but since Tyr had not given any orders, he simply stood silently guarding his master like an iron tower, without making any further moves.
The man with tiger ears, the man with bear ears, and the man with dog ears also saw Sheena.
They exchanged a glance, a glance that held no joy at Sheena's appearance, but rather a deeper despair and solemnity.
The tiger-eared man gripped his chipped greatsword tightly, the bear-eared man clutched his throbbing abdomen, and the dog-eared man sniffed the air warily.
Two Awakened Ones!
Deep within this desolate, frozen land, two powerful and aloof awakened beings suddenly appeared!
Will their small hunting team make it back to the village alive today?
"Sister Liv! Sister Liv!"
Sheena finally rushed to the bunny-eared girl's side, her voice trembling with tears, which welled up in her eyes and were about to fall, but they froze into tiny ice crystals on her eyelashes the moment they touched the cold air.
Her hands trembled as she dared not touch the charred, horrifying, penetrating wound on Liv's shoulder.
Liv, pale-faced, forced a smile and raised her trembling hand.
He gently touched Sheena's brown bear ears, which were trembling slightly from running and nervousness, his voice weak but soothing:
"Cough... Don't worry, little Hina, I'm... I'm not going to die yet."
She tried to appear relaxed, but the intense pain and burning sensation from the wound caused a fine layer of cold sweat to trickle down her forehead.
Sheena abruptly turned her head, looking at the figure blocking the blonde girl's path in the distance, and pleaded in a tearful voice:
"My lord! Please! Save Sister Liv!"
Lu Mingfei's attention was drawn back by Xina's call.
With a slight movement, he used the Void Soaring Dragon Step to cross the distance in a few steps, silently appearing beside Sheena and Liv.
He crouched down, his gaze sweeping over the charred, swollen, and deep wound on Liv's shoulder, his brow furrowing.
After a moment, he shook his head, his voice tinged with helplessness:
"I'm sorry, Sheena. I... don't know any treatment methods."
With his cultivation sealed, he possessed powerful defensive abilities but was powerless to heal the injuries of others.
At this moment, the dog-eared man also rushed over despite his injuries.
He was experienced and immediately took off a small leather pouch from his waist and picked up the short sword that Liv had dropped to the side, which was only half intact.
He carefully used the tip of his sword to cut open the leather clothing around Liv's wound, which was charred and stuck together by the laser, revealing an even more horrifying sight below.
The skin and flesh around the wound were completely charred and blackened, emitting a foul odor, forming a horrific wound the size of a bowl, with a bottomless hole in the center.
The dog-eared man's face instantly turned extremely ugly. He leaned closer and sniffed carefully, his eyes filled with despair.
"Liv... the flesh around your wound... is completely dead, there's no life left! If this continues... your right hand... I'm afraid... I'm afraid it will be completely useless!"
What does it mean for a hunter who has lost his right hand, which is used to wield a knife, to live on this cruel frozen land?
Everyone knows it.
