The distance gradually shortened, and the situation on the other side beca clear before their eyes.
Lilou's intuition was not wrong.
Compared to the dryness and heat of other places in the drought territory, the temperature here was definitely below freezing point. Breathing in the air, one could clearly feel the cold flowing into the body.
"Is this the domain of the ice elents?" Lilou's expression imdiately fell, not hiding her helplessness when she looked at Ronald, "Ronald, did we take the wrong path again?"
Lilou felt uneasy, but Ronald was confident in his judgnt.
After all, he verified their path constantly with spells—it was absolutely correct.
So Ronald said to Lilou:
"Lilou, I am still quite confident in my sense of direction."
"So let's not jump to conclusions, let's go in and see how things actually are."
Lilou had no objections to Ronald's decision; she rely wrapped her arms around herself and shrugged her shoulders:
"No problem, let's go with your plan."
"..."
As they stepped onto this chilly land, even Ronald shivered subconsciously.
—His constitution was not afraid of such severe cold.
But suddenly such a sharp drop in temperature was indeed sowhat uncomfortable.
And with such temperature changes, how was Lilou doing now?
Ronald turned his head to see Lilou shivering just like him; however, the rmaid's proficiency in spells could handle such issues, and with a slight adjustnt, she adapted to the changing environnt.
"Let know if you feel uncomfortable," Ronald asked cautiously.
"Such temperature changes won't trouble an adventurer!" Lilou replied proudly, refusing the concern.
"..."
With that, the two began to move forward in the cold air.
Only ten minutes passed before sothing unavoidable appeared ahead.
On the icy ground stood a crimson ring, with a constantly rotating gas vortex in its center, everything very similar to the spell ring at the bottom of the lava lake!
If one had to find a difference.
It was that this ring absorbed a large amount of surrounding temperature to maintain itself, causing the whole environnt to enter an extrely low temperature.
And right in front of the ring, more than ten rather unique-looking fellows guarded this place.
They were neither solid nor liquid.
Instead, they resembled glowing, hot gas like flas.
If Ronald had to choose a word to describe such a presence, it was living flas. Combined with their previous experiences and observations, the identity of the other party was evident—fire elents.
"Lilou, I don't think this is an ice snow elental territory anymore."
Ronald made a remark to the rmaid.
anwhile, Lilou had already pulled out that magic pistol from her bag:
"Ronald, if I had a choice, fighting would definitely not be my first choice."
Ronald completely agreed with this:
"I am about the sa as you, a pacifist."
"Like I would believe you!" Lilou retorted Ronald's response, showing her dissatisfaction, "Rember how you treated when we first t at Barrier Mountain?"
"Wasn't that a different situation!" Ronald argued a bit, then imdiately stopped discussing the issue.
He drew the Saint Catherine sword and charged towards the fire elents below.
Unlike the giants made of mountains or the water elents that could command sea power.
The form condensed by the fire elents appeared roughly as four-ter-tall humanoid figures, and there was nothing around to leverage. For Ronald, who had already identified them as enemies, this was a type that could be directly tested.
Bang—
The fire elent chosen as Ronald's attack target was directly split into two halves by this sword; after the cut, Ronald's montum didn't decrease, even creating a fissure on the ground.
However, this did not an the fire elent's death.
Though split in half, the fire elent remained active, stepped back a few steps, then unexpectedly fused back together.
This fire elent, suddenly was alright again!
"Intruder!"
"Is he with those three from before?"
"Protect the interdinsional passage, don't let him escape from us!"
anwhile, other fire elents, clearly seeing Ronald on the ground, imdiately started their discussions.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh—
Suddenly, several beams made of magic power descended from the sky.
In addition to blasting holes into the bodies of several fire elents around Ronald, they splattered on the ground, providing cover for Ronald.
"Another enemy! It's from above!"
Following the direction of the attack, the fire elents saw Lilou, who had closely followed, landing on the ground.
Since she made the decision to fight, the rmaid showed no trace of fear.
She not only closely followed Ronald to the ground, but also adjusted the shooting angle during the attack to provide cover for Ronald, who was charging into the enemy ranks first!
Faced with two opponents barging in with such arrogance, the fire elents ceased discussing anything else.
As they held off the previously split fire elent, stepping back a few paces.
The individuals adept at combat simultaneously charged towards Ronald and Lilou.
The towering four-ter humanoid flas rushed forward, creating a quite impactful visual.
However, Ronald and Lilou were not the types to be intimidated by such scenes.
Among the two, Lilou grabbed a transparent thin fabric and threw it forward; the fire elent rushing towards her was imdiately covered, unable to break free for a mont, and Lilou took the opportunity to shift her position.
As for Ronald...
Among the flying dust, the pitch-black sword flicked through the air.
The fire elent advancing towards him was prepared, but the very nature of the strike exceeded the opponent's reaction limits. Before evading, the fire elent succumbed to the sa fate as its companion, being split into two by Ronald's blow.
"Get down!"
In the blink of an eye, Ronald's figure erged from the dust, kicking the fire elent over to the ground with his foot, the magic fluctuation imdiately responded to his intent to attack.
Crunch crunch—
Instantly, a crack appeared in the earth.
The fire elent, unable to escape, fell into it, and the earth fissure closed with a roar.
—The site was empty of the fire elent's presence.
"..."
To the fire elents, this was an unacceptable scene.
Being dealt with by inferior life forms outside of [Four-Sided Heaven], such a resolution of a companion was unprecedented thousands of years!
"Unforgivable!"
"Vile, shaful beings, vanish in the flas!"
A fire elent charged forward with an intense cry, and the flas composing its body imdiately emitted dazzling white light.
Boom—
The next second, a high-temperature fla erupted from this fire elent.
In the blink of an eye, everything within a hundred-ter radius was utterly devoured by this terrifying fla.
