142 So Your Weakness Is Water! (2/2)

If the monster was as good a schemer as a human, then the whole H&G world would be conquered by the monsters!

Qin Ruo let out a grin. He swiftly leaped away from the snow path once again and swung further downward the snow mountain. Utilizing the newly inspired Aquamorph, Qin Ruo reached the bottom of the snow mountain rather quickly. The Wintry Vajra, now halfway down the mountain, remain persistent on hunting down Qin Ruo. It relied on its quick speed as it single-mindedly dashed down the serpentine snow path. It seemed that Qin Ruo's previous strike on the Wintry Vajra had really left a deep trauma in its mind and soul. Under normal circumstances, the other Bosses would have long since vanished without a trace in such a scenario.

Qin Ruo had deep remorse in his mind for half a minute long, then he turned around and began to run. He trailed back on the route where he came in earlier and bolted without any scruples.

The Wintry Vajra did not disappoint him. Not only did it not turn back and run away, but it had caught up to him just as he reached the Sapphire Lake. Its enraged, blood red devilish iris was overflowing with enormous killing intent! However, what troubled Qin Ruo more was that this creature had summoned out two Snow Giants once it was out of the snow mountain range…

Needless to say, these were exactly the two stupid creatures entrapped in the nest! It seemed that the Wintry Vajra was certain that with Qin Ruo's speed, he would not be able to run out of the Frostsnow Island region. Thus, it generously summoned the two ”little guys” together.

One small, two huge—a total of three figures were threatening Qin Ruo like a giant thorn pointed to his back.

Qin Ruo almost cried out loud. He never expected that the Wintry Vajra would be this cunning. He initially planned to take out the Wintry Vajra in a solo fight, then only turn around and take care of the two bloated giants. Unexpectedly, the Wintry Vajra had summoned them out so soon, which saved him the time to make a return trip… This, however, had also made his strategy to defeat the Wintry Vajra more difficult to accomplish.

But since he had pulled the string, he had to unleash the arrow now regardless of the adversity!

Qin Ruo gritted his teeth. With a splash, he dived into the Sapphire Lake with great determination and swam swiftly toward the center…

***

Bang!!!

Just as he approached the center of the lake, the Wintry Vajra also jumped into the lake and created a huge splash. With such a gigantic body, his movements were really affected by the lake. In addition to the hindrance from the lake water, the mud at the bottom of the lake also equally restricted its movement speed. Aside from that, Qin Ruo was most surprised by the fact that the whitish ice body of the Wintry Vajra had gradually turned blue from the moment it immersed into the water. The dark blue crystal-like structure on its chest also slowly beamed out blinding rays…

Such an anomaly immediately raised Qin Ruo's vigilance. Without any delay, he quickly placed several Water Element Walls in front of him and prepared for the worst!

The two Snow Giants, which had just reached the shore, were shocked as if they had witnessed some utterly horrible stuff. They were unsettled by the transformation befallen upon the Wintry Vajra and groaned continuously in a frightened manner. They were standing near the edge and dared not enter the lake.

Such a behavior of the monsters truly baffled Qin Ruo.

Soon, his vision was once again attracted back onto the Wintry Vajra, who was now immobile and had its body completely turned into a blue color. He stared fixedly at the crystal on its chest which was emitting a blazing dark blue light ray. An idea suddenly crosses his mind.

'Is this…

'Don't tell me this is the Deepblue Frostsoul?

'What had happened to the Wintry Vajra anyway?'

Qin Ruo opened his mouth slightly and temporarily let his guard down. He first looked at the blank-looking Wintry Vajra that was now standing like a wood in the lake water, then took another look on the Deepblue Frostsoul shining with a blazing dark blue light ray. He found it difficult to comprehend why the Wintry Vajra, who was actively and angrily hunting him not too long ago, had suddenly turned motionless like a toy without its clockwork. He also couldn't understand why the Deepblue Frostsoul had appeared before him without a sign…

He was really confused!

He probingly entered the thirty-meter range of the Wintry Vajra… The monster did not respond to this and remained completely still on the far side as if it was dead.

This encouraged Qin Ruo to courageously release another piercing Frost Bullet.

Poof!

The Frost Bullet directly pierced through the Wintry Vajra's body. It penetrated its body so easily like it was passing through an Aquarampart. Even the system had failed to relay the message on whether Wintry Vajra had just been attacked or damaged. This was really odd!

Unlike the Wintry Vajra, the two Snow Giants at the shore raised their arms in dissatisfaction as they saw Qin Ruo was approaching step by step. In each of their hand was a giant snowball two meters long in diameter. They swaggered and roared non-stop toward Qin Ruo, threatening to instantly throw the snowball toward him if he dared to proceed further.

At this moment, Qin Ruo finally confirmed one of his conjectures.

This quest segment involving the Wintry Vajra was most probably left with only one last action—retrieval. But before that, he needed to take out the two Snow Giants first. As he thought of this, an evil grin flashed on his face after he scanned through the Sapphire Lake as well as the Snow Giants which seemed to be frightened by the lake water.

”So your weakness is water, hehe…”
