Chapter 1019: Fight (1/2)
Sam is currently standing in the center of the training hall with the four ice elves surrounding him. The queen and the elder are standing far away with nervous expressions.
They agreed to Sam's bet. Because they got greedy.
Due to the unfavorable conditions of the planet, they couldn't mine the stones as they want. Even the ice elves who have high ice elemental affinity amongst the ice elemental creatures couldn't sustain the atmosphere and the environmental changes in this realm.
The basic resource which is the spirit stone cannot be found here easily. The very small quantity of the spirit stones they have circulating in the market are ice elemental spirit stones and even they are not exactly sufficient for their own use much less giving them to others.
As for the foreign trades, the realms that are connected to the Tundra realm are very few and the races that connected to this realm and managed to establish a trade decided to take full advantage of the realm.
Nobody wants to come here voluntarily and the creatures here cannot find a more suitable place than this, in the surroundings to move their race. If any of them came out as the large group, they might even be caught and used as slaves. After all, they are all mutants. This realm is their only way to compulsorily ensure their survival even if they cannot develop. It is hard for civilization to not think of development and not strive for it.
They need spirit stones for that. As much as they can find the resources such as frost essence easily in this place along with other things that could aid the cultivation, not having spirit stones is still a disadvantage. But the trade relations they have only have one goal, exploit the creatures with exorbitant prices and get everything for cheap from them.
And as soon as they saw someone as easygoing as Sam who didn't care about his money, they became a bit greedy and reached more than they should have. Now they are nervous that by any chance if Sam wins, they would be in trouble.
Sam activated fire elemental fusion instantly. Since the environment is against him, it is better to go all out, if he just played around for some time and got injured, since he decided not to use other elements, he would be paying some price.
Seeing that Sam used the fusion from the ice elves also have no reason for holding back.
They all stomped on the floor and ice walls appeared in front of them.
Clear ice walls that looked like glass created a cage around Sam.
He felt like he was locked inside a mirror cage as he could see the four elves but on sixteen walls. He was suddenly reminded of the anime back on the earth. Naruto. The protagonist was also surrounded by such a deceptive mirror cage, but the opponent was only one person.
Sam became vigilant and used energy vision to take a look. To his surprise, he couldn't find the real ice elves in the images, and in that moment, the ice arrows started coming towards him.
Sam created a wall of fire around him which clashed with the arrows and melted them down.
He kept on increasing the heat and it is clearly visible that his immediate surroundings are completely free of frost and ice.
”You are good. Now let us get serious, shall we? We would like to finish this in a single attack.”
A voice resounded in the cage and Sam could feel the cold increasing within the boundary.
The firewall he created around himself started dimming down and Sam kept on injecting the energy to burn fiercely, but it was to no avail.
The insides of the cage turned into a blizzard and Sam could feel the small ice fragments that are hitting him.
He stood his ground and tried to vaporize everything that came at him. But the blizzard kept on increasing in both the turbulence and density.
Soon the small ice pieces started turning sharp as they moved along.
Sam understood that it would be hard to resist something like this with sheer energy and gathered all of it to create a dense and smaller shield around him which gave him better protection, he abandoned the thoughts of attacking for a moment and decided to stay in a defensive position.
The sharp and thin ice pieces suddenly halted in mid-air and all turned towards Sam.
All the images in the mirror started aiming their arrows at Sam as the four-voice were heard simultaneously.
”Myriad Arrow-Ice Coffin.”
As they all let go of the string, the arrows shot towards Sam from the mirror, and before Sam could react, all the arrows shot forward.
They didn't necessarily aim at him, they even hit the ground surrounding him.
But everywhere they hit, they dispersed into some ice particles and created a lump of ice in that spot.
