Chapter 523 Please Give Me a Blueberry Ice Cream
The Ice Soul Lotus was like the most intricate artistic masterpiece. The transparent ice crystals reflected the dazzling silver light, and instantly appeared above Olef before silently blossoming. As the Ice Soul Lotus blossomed, countless wisps of ice were suddenly projected downward from above in an area with a diameter of around two meters. Olef was forcibly encapsulated within that area, and the Ice Soul Lotus exploded at the same time. The lotus flower petals transformed into sharp blades which converged toward Olef. Each and every petal shimmered with an icy cold light, and there were several dozens of those petals.
“How could this be?!” Olef’s attention was immediately wrenched away from Urien. As a melee tank, he didn’t carry any magic barriers or anything of that nature. However, as the countless wisps of ice fell, he could already sense that his mobility had been restricted, and the lotus petal blades presented an even more potent threat than Blour and Sally had. This spell had already exceeded the boundaries of a 7th-tier spell; it was at least infinitely approaching a spell unleashed by an 8th-tier magic caster.
If he had had his black shield, he would have been absolutely confident in his ability to ward off all of the blades of ice. After all, defense was his forte. However, his shield had been sealed in ice by Urien, and his mobility had been restricted. In the face of the countless oncoming blades of ice, he could only evade in a small area and use his bare hands to defend himself.
“What powerful magic waves! The oracle stone must have enhanced the power of her spell by an extreme degree!” Blour also looked on in complete disbelief. He had thought that Amy’s limit was a 4th-tier spell, but he could clearly sense that her Ice Soul Lotus could pose an absolute threat even to him, thereby making the true upper limit of her power a mystery.
The oracle stone is only triggered randomly, but that works to intimidate the enemy as it presents a potential underlying hazard. However, this is not Amy’s true power. Mag had to remind himself of this in order not to get swept up in unrealistic expectations.
The ferociously spinning blades of ice flew toward Olef from all directions. Olef’s body was quite fat and burly, but his movements were extremely agile. He lashed out with his two large hands, shattering all of the blades of ice that came into contact with his palms.
However, there were simply too many blades for him to deal with, and no matter how fast he was, he couldn’t take care of all of them.
One of the blades sliced across his back, piercing through his thick leather armor and sending a pillar of blood gushing into the air.
Almost at the exact same moment, one blade after another pierced through Olef’s armor, leaving a series of wounds on his body. There were also some blades of ice that exploded within his body, leaving behind ghastly wounds, and instantly reducing it to a mass of blood and mangled flesh.
“Thud!”
The blades of ice disappeared, and a thick layer of ice appeared on the ground. Olef’s entire body was stained with blood as he fell to his knees. His entire body had been severely ravaged, and he supported himself with his hands as he stared at Amy. He was still in disbelief that such a little girl could be capable of unleashing such a terrifying spell.
“Amy won!”
The customers were all completely stunned by what they were seeing. The demon who had defeated Blour and Sally with ease was now kneeling in front of Amy, and Amy had reduced him to this state through her own power, not by relying on Urien. Everyone felt as if this world had gone insane!
“That’s so powerful!” Even Amy was stunned by the power of her own spell. She faltered momentarily before putting on a serious expression as she said, “You big baddie, do you see how strong I am now? I, Amy, am super fierce!” Following a brief stunned silence, everyone burst into raucous laughter. No one had anticipated this result, and they felt as if they had just witnessed a miracle.
“Grandpa…” Anna fell onto Joshua’s chest again, and sobbed with heartbreak and despair.
“We’re from the Gray Temple! Everyone, make way!” Right at that moment, a loud voice erupted as Barzel arrived on the scene with several Gray Temple investigators.
The surrounding bystanders separated to create a path for them. Due to the fact that the incident had taken place right when a transition was taking place in the patrol shift, the Gray Temple personnel were quite late to the scene, and the battle had already concluded.
Barzel looked with a grave expression at the bloodstained Olef kneeling on the ground, and then turned his attention to the wounded Blour and Sally, as well as the dead bodies of the demons and orcs strewn on the ground nearby. Such brutal homicide taking place in the Aden Square was enough to be treated as a 4th-tier incident.
He looked at the shards of ice on the ground, then at Urien and Amy, and he knew that the two of them were clearly somehow related to this incident. That gave him quite a headache. Things always became really complicated when those two were involved.
“Mr. Barzel, this is what happened…” Mag made his way over to Barzel, and gave an account of the recent events. Sally had killed most of the orcs and demons present, so he had to clarify that they deserved to die. Otherwise, Sally would most definitely be condemned and charged for murder. Only through doing that could he minimize the impact of the incident, as well as ensure that as little attention was drawn to her as possible.
“Hunting parties for elves?” Barzel looked at Anna, who was still sobbing over Joshua’s body, and then at Blour and Sally before nodding as he said, “This is an extremely serious incident, so those two elves will need to come with me for an interrogation along with that demon.”
“I have no objection to coming with you, but I hope you can send troops to search for their base located five kilometers north of Chaos City as quickly as possible. There are still many of our elven brethren held captive there, and now that these guys have died, they’re very likely going to make an escape. In that case, it would be a disaster for our brethren regardless of whether they’re killed or transported elsewhere. I do not want to see such a tragedy repeat itself.” Blour struggled to his feet and turned a sympathetic gaze toward Anna.
Barzel looked at the heartbroken Anna, and hesitated momentarily before nodding as he said, “I’ll be sure to report this to my superiors. The Gray Temple is responsible for maintaining safety and order within and around Chaos City, and we stand firm against all unlawful activity in that area.”
Blour nodded before making his way over to Anna. He squatted down in front of her, and looked into her eyes as he said, “Anna, my name is Blour, and I’ll be taking care of you from this day forth. Is that
ok?”
“No, I want my grandpa, I only want my grandpa…” Anna shook her head as she pressed her face tightly against Joshua’s chest. She had already cried herself hoarse.
Blour stood up and turned to Mag as he said, “Mr. Mag, please give me a blueberry ice cream. Also, I’ll have to trouble you to look after Anna tonight. I have to go and kill all of those bastards.”
