On the Swarm battlefield, the situation was already extrely dire.
Due to Frost Serpent’s sudden betrayal, the Snow Wolf Clan’s defense line completely collapsed.
Combined with The Swarm’s all-out assault, at this mont only the desperately unleashed power of the Snow Guardian barely shielded the entire clan behind her.
At this mont.
The Snow Guardian did not release an Energy Barrier easily devoured by The Swarm, but instead solidified a sturdy Extre Ice Shield to firmly protect the Snow Wolf Clan within.
However, this Ice Shield was now riddled with cracks, clearly unable to hold on for much longer.
The icy gaze of two Humanoid Totem Level Insectoids was locked onto the Snow Wolf Clan.
Earlier, letting Frost Serpent escape already infuriated them greatly, and at this mont they would not let any prey in front of them escape—none
of the living beings here were permitted to leave!
Inside the Ice Shield, fear was etched indelibly on the faces of all the Snow Wolves.
Though not afraid of dying in battle, the life-and-death mont suffocatingly pressed on them instinctively.
Crystal Winslow watched all this, her pale fingers involuntarily clenching.
Despite her power having increased significantly, in the face of such a scale of swarm invasion, the strength of Monarch Tier One seed still insignificant.
Without the Snow Guardian’s protection, she feared she would be instantly swallowed by the sea of insects.
"Crack—Crack—!!"
The shield released by the Snow Guardian continued to show cracks.
Even though the shield was not purely made of Energy, it still could not withstand the Swarm’s relentless attacks—
One failed attack was compensated by a hundred, a thousand, ten thousand, until it was utterly destroyed.
At this mont, the black mass of the Swarm surged crazily towards the Snow Wolf Clan.
Seraphina gazed at the encroaching wave of insects and whispered to Crystal Winslow:
"Crystal, this event originally had nothing to do with you, and now that you’re involved... you can’t just leave!"
Crystal Winslow remained very calm about this.
Before setting off, she had already anticipated the outco of this action—
The endless Swarm was sothing the Snow Wolf Clan could never withstand.
Nevertheless, she still ca without hesitation.
She was never one to be ungrateful.
Though she longed to return to Draconia, when the Snow Kingdom faced an existential crisis, she still chose to offer her help.
"This is my choice."
Crystal Winslow’s voice was clear and firm, "My life was saved by the Snow Maiden, and now even if I die in battle, it’s rely returning my life to her."
Hearing these words, Seraphina’s figure slightly trembled, looking at Crystal Winslow with newfound respect.
Had she been in Crystal’s position, she might not have been able to make such a resolute decision.
At this mont, even the tiny grudge she held towards Crystal for stealing the Snow Maiden’s attention completely dissipated.
"Alright!" Seraphina took a deep breath, her gaze sharpening, "Then from now on, let’s fight side by side!"
The Snow Guardian had used all her power for protection, no longer able to launch any attacks.
The shield was shattered, and from this mont on, they could only rely on themselves.
"Snow Wolf Clan—hear my command!"
Seraphina shouted, all the Snow Wolves responded in unison, their gaze determined:
"The Snow Wolf Clan, here we stand!"
Seraphina’s eyes deepened, her voice echoing through the winds and snow:
"From this mont forth, even if we fight to the last, we must kill as many of The Swarm as possible!"
"For every one we kill, the Snow Maiden becos that much safer!"
"Understood!"
On the face of every Snow Wolf appeared the resolve of those prepared to die.
Under everyone’s gaze, the shield that was barely holding on finally shattered completely—
The Snow Guardian’s body fell heavily along with it.
At this instant, Seraphina shouted sternly:
"Snow Wolf Clan—attack!"
Crystal Winslow was also moved by this unyielding spirit and, following the Snow Wolf Clan, resolutely charged towards the wave of insects.
However, the difference in strength was staggering.
In the boundless sea of insects, with each charge by the Snow Wolf Clan, many clan mbers fell.
After several charges, the clan had fewer than a hundred left, and nearly all were injured, with the gravest even missing limbs, still barely holding on with sheer willpower.
Seraphina looked around at her sacrificed kin, unable to hide the grief in her eyes.
Once a Snow Wolf fell, The Swarm would swarm over, leaving nothing but white bones in a mont—
In this short ti, the snowy plains were already covered with hundreds of bones, all of whom she had once run beside and fought shoulder to shoulder.
Crystal Winslow’s arms trembled slightly.
This was not out of fear, but because excessive energy had been consud.
She took a deep breath, reigniting the Life Fla:
"Life Burning!"
Now it had co to this, she left no room for retreat.
Burning life was her last choice.
Yet there was a trace of regret lingering in her heart:
Until her life’s last mont, she never got to see the one she most wanted to see.
In the sky, the two humanoid insects quietly observed everything.
They could not help but be amazed by the Snow Wolf Clan’s indomitable will.
Though this race was not powerful, this red-blooded courage to fight to the end was very rare among the countless civilizations they destroyed.
For such opponents, they decided—to give them the highest respect:
The two of them would personally take action!
The two Totem-Class Insectoids instantly vanished from their original spots, leaving only a twisted black spatial rift.
In the next mont, they appeared ghost-like at the front of the Snow Wolf Clan!
Seeing this scene, everyone was incredibly shocked.
Only Crystal Winslow was too familiar with this power—
This was the "Void" Power controlled by Aster Grant’s Beastbond Scarlett.
The two insectoids before them were equally proficient in this ability!
Fortunately, aside from mastering Void Power, these two insectoids did not have other overwhelming powers.
Crystal Winslow burned her life, Seraphina fought desperately, and the two of them managed to withstand this blow in a desperate situation!
The two insectoids flashed a hint of surprise in their eyes.
But that was all.
They launched another attack, their voices as grating as tal scraping:
"You are comndable, but this is the end!"
"Before you die, rember the race that destroyed you—"
"Void Insectoid."
Before the words could finish, they ford another attack, slicing through with space-dark energy like blades!
Crystal Winslow and Seraphina had already given their all and could no longer withstand...
Yet at that very mont—
A giant, lush green vine suddenly broke through the ice fields, soaring skyward in front of the two, like a canopy blocking the destructive energy!
The attack of the two Insectoids struck against this vine, producing a sound like tal clashing.
The sudden change startled the two Insectoids.
They retreated at once.
From this vine, they sensed danger.
As the heads of the swarm, they absolutely would not place themselves in danger.
Seeing this vine, Crystal Winslow was suddenly stunned.
In the next instant, as if recalling sothing, she suddenly looked up.
Sure enough, an incredibly familiar figure appeared before her eyes.
