Chapter 310: Captured alive (2/2)
Upon arriving at the mountain valley, Helen Tina finally saw Han Shuo slow to a stop, with the little skeleton on the strange undead creature appearing next to him. Rage having overwhelmed her rational thought, Helen Tina urged the phoenix to shoot straight towards Han Shuo. The phoenix emitted a melodic sound before spraying out a blazing hot flame.
Helen Tina waved her fire stone embedded magic staff. Bowl-sized fireballs one by one appeared, blasting towards Han Shuo and the little skeleton in a dense rain.
The little skeleton grasped the three meters long knife and tapped on the undead creature he was riding with the handle. The undead creature opened a huge mouth full of sharp fangs and howled at the sky. Green glowing wraiths floated out from its mouth, their green sheen glimmering as they brought with them the thick presence of death from the other dimension. The wraiths started to madly absorb the deathly air floating around mountain valley as soon as they appeared in this world.
The wraiths’ bodies had originally appeared with barely a glimmer of light. Their bodies slowly expanded and condensed into the appearance of green liquid under the pressure blowing from the undead creature’s mouth. They rammed violently towards the densely packed fireballs.
The wraiths had absorbed energy from dead souls and rapidly swelled up to the point they couldn’t hold their shapes anymore. They exploded in mid-air, deathly air covered the sky in gray-green mist. Ice cold breaths beat at the pack of fireballs, slowly dissipating the brilliant light of the fireballs.
Upon seeing the light from the fireballs dissipate, the little skeleton urged his huge undead mount to dash towards Helen Tina.
Undead creatures bore a natural hatred for the light of fire. However, the glossy bones of the little skeleton were highly resistant to fire magic despite his hatred. He wasn’t truly afraid of fire. As soon as the deathly air destroyed the dense fireballs, the little skeleton held his long blade and charged ferociously to face Helen Tina as per Han Shuo’s command.
When the little skeleton neared, the Helen Tina’s phoenix emitted a massive flame, the high temperature causing every green plant around the mountain valley to wilt and die. Only several towering big old trees held up thanks to their firm roots.
At this time, the Demonslayer Edge howled as it drew across the sky with the speed of a meteor crossing the horizon, dragging a long purple tail behind it. It instantly arrived by the side of Helen Tina and the Fire Phoenix before circling upwards. Purple, dancing spellfire suddenly appeared like a star and sprinkled down on the flaming body of the Fire Phoenix.
The Fire Phoenix suddenly issued a sharp cry. The super rank magic creature then opened its beak to speak in human language, its girly, sweet voice resounding, “What is this? It’s so cold.”
A bone-chilling cold spread as the purple spellfire descended. Sizzling sounds crackled all over the fire phoenix’s body, it suddenly felt its steely bones stiffen up, the flapping of its wings becoming increasingly heavy. The phoenix lost altitude and began to slowly fall down to the depths of the mountain valley with Helen Tina on it.
“Big sister Fire Phoenix, what’s wrong?” Helen Tina hastily called out in panic.
“I don’t know, my body feels really uncomfortable!” The phoenix also cried out, not knowing what to do or how to stop the descent. She was also very afraid of this unknown cold invading her body.
The two female creatures fell down, about to hit the ground when the branches of the nearby towering old trees suddenly twisted tightly like an octopus’ tentacles around them, not letting them move one bit.
“Damnable necromancer, how are you able to use the natural ability of the druids!?” The phoenix’s crisp and clear voice constantly complained after she was tied up by the branches.
Helen Tina struggled with the fire stone embedded magic staff in her hand. She tried to chanted a fire magic incantation. At this moment, a vicious, long, and sharp knife kissed herwhite, slender neck at this moment.
Helen Tina lifted her head to see the odd little skeleton. The seven wing bones behind his back were fluttering gently. The lengths of his body and the long knife in his hand were completely at disproportionate odds with each other. An eyeball sparkling with a purple light was staring straight at Helen Tina, making all the hairs on her body stand on end.
“What do you want?” Helen Tina looked coldly down at Han Shuo below and asked vengefully. Someone like her who’d been through the baptism of blood and fire to reach her current position actually restored her calm bearing at a time like this.
