Chapter 166: Chapter 152: Ice WallWith Elsa at the center, the air temperature rapidly decreased, and the moisture in the air visibly condensed into hexagonal ice crystals. Countless snowflakes danced in the wind, landing on the ground, lawns, and branches, quickly encasing them in a layer of ice.
If Gray Rain hadnât retreated in time, she would now be frozen in place.
These were still only Queen Elsaâs passive skills; she lowered her head to look at her palms as if adapting to her newfound strength.
âDamned...â
Bai Lang had cursed his teammates countless times in his heart. Elliot accidentally transformed into a monster and sided with the mission boss; Su Jie acted recklessly, dragging everyone into the mire... If it wasnât for these bastards, he wouldnât have ended up in his current predicament.
However, to some extent, he also had himself to blame for joining the Demon Scientistsâ Guild.
In the eyes of the outside world, every member of the Demon Scientistsâ Guild is a wicked villain, capable of casually conducting human experiments, creating biochemical weapons, terror robots, demon engines, and chaotic rituals, wreaking havoc and tragedies in the mortal world wherever they go.
But within the guild, conducting technological re
Li Cheng fired the Bat Hook Claw Gun and swung in the air to avoid the cold wave. Gray Rain jumped onto a street lamp pole and barely dodged it.
Su Jie strapped on his Rocket Backpack, holding a can of human head in one hand, and dragged Andre into the air with the other.
As for Bai Lang, he summoned the Titan Giant Python, which coiled around him several times, blocking the pervasive cold stream with its flesh and blood.
Queen Elsa waved her hand again, and the cold wave turned solid; the sky full of ice and snow and the ground full of frost rushed towards everyone.
Transcendents were forced to relocate, employing various methods, yet still unable to avoid dilemmas, and eventually fled to the Dream Garden area previously visited by Li Cheng, where survival space became increasingly narrow.
Such events seemed protracted, but in reality, they unfolded within mere minutes. To everyoneâs surprise, Elliot, too, failed to escape the omnipresent ice and snow, becoming frozen in place as an ice sculpture.
Su Jie hesitated before using a Special Affairs Bureau standard sniper rifle, firing unexpectedly at the ice sculpture and shattering its head to smithereens. In other words, the puppet princess hadnât cared about Elliotâs life and death at all.
"How could this be?!" Su Jieâs face was a picture of astonishment, his voice slightly distorted, "Wasnât the puppet princess released by Elliot? Didnât he have control over it?"
"It was simply his wishful thinking." Li Cheng said with a cold laugh, "Itâs already written on the security departmentâs wall that the puppet realized she had been deceived, and thatâs why she started killing all tourists, staff, and security. The diamond ring used by security to influence the puppet has long lost its effect."
"Then why..."
"Why did the puppet act like she was being controlled by Elliot at first?" Li Cheng voiced Su Jieâs doubt but did not answer directly, instead glancing at the horizon.
The bottom of the sunset was gradually merging with the horizon. It was about to be nightfall.
"Have you noticed? The puppetâs attacks are getting stronger. Among the mission objectives, not just us, but she too can escape to the outside world with a tourist card."
Li Cheng twisted his neck, then laughed loudly to the shock of the other Transcendents: "Terminator T-X! Combine!"
Gray Rain muttered complaints of "Whoâs Terminator T-X, huh," but her body honestly liquefied again and covered Li Cheng. Using Mantis Arm Bone Blade and Beetle Horn as a template, she transformed into a menacing, spike-covered metal armor.
Even the rusty, corroded greatsword was plated with a layer of liquid metal, becoming smooth as a mirror.
"If you want to live, cover me."
Below the armor came Li Chengâs slightly muffled voice. He shot out a Bat Hook Claw Gun at an ice spike, swinging forward forcefully towards the vast snowy expanse.
Nearly a ton in weight, Gray Rain had some mobility herself and did not let her weight press entirely on him. Instead, she used her mass advantage to gain significant gliding momentum.
"Damn riddle man!"
Bai Lang cursed madly in his heart. Just like a gambler who couldnât leave the table and could only bet all his remaining chips, he summoned his last resortâtwo Titan Giant Pythonsâand launched a desperate charge at Aisha.
Each python was fifteen meters long, covered with chitin biological armor, and had a Fire Dragon Gland installed in its mouth.
Facing the endless snow and ice, the Titan Giant Pythons opened their massive jaws, with the Fire Dragon Glands spewing out scorching Dragon Fire, clearing a path for Li Cheng.
Andre drew his Straight Sword, cut his left arm artery, and once again sacrificed 30% of his blood to summon Holy Light Strike, shattering the thick ice walls one by one to clear obstacles for Li Cheng. Su Jie was on the side casting Medical Skills, preventing him from becoming dizzy and dying suddenly.
As both sides drew closer, the two Titan Giant Pythons ultimately became frozen sculptures due to the pervasive chill, and Andreâs Holy Light Strike had reached its limit.
Yet, there were still several ice walls standing.
It was about time.
Beneath the armor, Li Cheng pulled out the antique-looking Thunder Horn from the void, blowing it with all his might.
The bottle of wine stored in the Backpack disappeared without a trace. Centered around Li Cheng, within a fifty-meter radius, numerous flickering electrical arcs formed out of nowhere. The electrical arcs weaved through the air, and after a brief delay, accumulated enough voltage to unleash a brilliant thunderstorm!
Thunderbolts rained from the skies, from beneath the ground, from mid-air without any discernable pattern or rule. Like the crushing hammers of an enraged deity, they smashed the thick ice walls blocking Li Chengâs path, revealing the puppet hidden behind the ice.
