Chapter 164 - Playing With Fire
The explosion made by Cai Dinxiang earlier killed 6 ghouls, which was good enough in delaying the enemy movements that are charging towards them.
Even though that the explosion was a great impact for the squad but for the monsters it wasn\'t damaging enough, because the primary focus of the monsters was to hinder the progress of the candidates so that they will learn and 2nd they always fight the squad that will enter the field of battle.
After the explosion Li Ye raised his hands once again and whispered "Ice spikes attack!" and with that multiple ice spiked suddenly appeared, coming from the ice floor. With the multiple ice spikes appeared across the ice floor, it killed 6 ghouls that were trying to attack from the front.
The ghouls\' rage was unbelievable, their shrieks were irritating and made the entire squad and formation disrupted because of the loss of focus on their primary task.
But luckily Li Xiaosheng regains back their composure as he raised his sword and shouted "Defiant Call" and another buff he whispered "Last Sword Call" and with those two buffs some of the squad members felt they got each other.
The ghouls body that was pierce through by the ice spike and as the green substance that was coming out and dripping at the ice of Li Ye, he felt disgusted, "Damn that is gross I don\'t like the realism sometimes it turns me off" Li Ye was furious because of the substance dripping from his ice but he can\'t do anything.
Meanwhile, on the other side, the Markash walks on the ice floor, its foot was stomping on the ice to get balance from his gigantic posture.
Dai Lanfen ordered with her soft gentle voice, "Attack!" and the ice hammer puppets charged forward. But because of the ice floor, the Markash monster was not that agile enough to move to other places faster because of his footing, which was really unstable.
It is also because anytime the Markash monster moved drastically it might get off balance and fall down, which can lead to its demise. And because of that the Markash stomp on the ice floor harder than earlier and with the force that it applied on the ice there came cracks and because of the stomp vibration on the ice.
The ice hammer puppets stopped their charge as they suddenly balance their footing. As they felt the vibration hinder and delayed them from their attack.
From that the Markash monster has now the time to turn and face its enemy that was delayed from attacking earlier because of it did on the ice floor. The Markash monster roared, but the ice hammer puppets continued to attack when the vibration from the ice stopped.
Because the ice hammer puppets don\'t have emotion, their primary sensory of emotion is coming from Dai Lanfen as long as Dai Lanfen is not afraid from the roar of the Markash monster. The Ice hammer puppets will only negate its negative buff.
The first thing that the Markash did was to leap towards the location of the 3rd Ice hammer. Which was easily swollen whole by the Markash monster, and then the Markash monster looked around and because one of his clones got eaten, Dai Lanfen felt a loss in his heart as if an important part of herself was loss and eaten by the Markash monster.
And when one of the ice hammer puppets gets close to the Markash monster. The Markash easily grabbed the ice hammer puppet from the ground and lifting it up to its mouth and then throws the ice hammer puppet in his mouth easily swallowing the ice hammer puppet whole.
Because of the ineffectiveness of the hammer puppets on an enemy, Dai Lanfen needs to think of a new material that can kill the Markash monster or else it will be too late for all of them.
"Shi- this won\'t do good I need some fire to burn this dead wood!" Dai Lanfen shouted as she raised her hand and raised 4 more puppets but this time the puppets came from the metal floor which when summoned the puppets have long arms but their arms are lancers with sharp pointy end.
Meanwhile, at the center of the field of battle, half of the ghouls have now crossed the ice floor. Li Xiaosheng, Qin Shanyuan, gripped their swords as they know the battle will belong and hard. Zhong Zian and Wen Xin both are gasping for air.
Wen Xin was proud because he saw that the toxic smoke that he release was delaying the incoming ghouls that are still increasing. While Zhong Zian was also gripping his daggers for a sudden charge so they can support the two swordsman upfront.
"IRON SLASH!" Li Xiaosheng shouted as he swings his sword to the right and cutting down the ghoul. The sword slashed across the body of the ghoul as it slowly sliced across its chest, down to the left abdomen.
But because of its undying buff that activated early on the fight. The ghoul counter attack from the sword swings of Li Xiaosheng."HEALER CALL YOU ANGEL!" Qin Shanyuan shouted, as she swings her sword to control the claws of the ghouls that keep pushing the vanguard back.
And as what Qin Shanyuan ordered, Zia Tengfei raised her staff once again and whispered, "Thou the light of the creator shine upon me and the guard Angel that guides me! ANGEL BRINGER!" and from that moment a light struck down through the ground from above to the Field of battle.
And from the Light that struck them materialize an angel with two wings and an armor that is shinning with Divinity. The light of the Healer made the other ghouls shriek because of the sheer light, as the ghouls don\'t like the light.
Zia Tengfei was angry as the Angel knelt in front of her. And then she said with a tough and confident tone of voice "Angel, defend the vanguard to all who cross shall perish from your divine sword." And the Ange bowed and stood up and after that he turns around and looked at the incoming ghouls because of the new spawn of 20 more ghouls that will come towards them.
Cai Dinxiang sighed as he focused on the appearance of the angel and when he look straight ahead he saw that the Markash monster was walking towards him. And because Cai Dinxiang could slowly grasp his emotions. With him being able to grasp his emotion will increase the change that he can be strong.
Then he shouted, "I am taking care of this Markash monster. And Li Ye saw, Cai Dinxiang rushing forward with no support that backing him. Li Ye shouted before Cai Dinxiang cross the ice floor and head to the middle. "Don\'t do it! It will not be a good thing to do!" Li ye shouted, but Cai Dinxiang did not hear it, so he rushed forward.
The Markash monster raised its two hands that were on the side. Its sharp claws made it much sinister It also has sharp front teeth, which is used to bite its prey and munch it down to its belly. But because of Cai Dinxiang burning passion inside of him, he could not hold himself from the point of attacking head on the monster that he is facing.
"I will face this monster with my power!" and his whole body got engulfed by his demonic fiery flame. Because of that, his gear is also slowly burning. But his demonic fiery flame was only covering his body like a shirt body, and it was not in its full form.
"RAHH!" he raised his hands and from his hands came out 10 fireballs that is 4x larger than a basketball ball.And when the fireballs explode on the body of the Markash monster it, then exploded
*BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* after the explosion was the Demonic Fiery flame sticking into the dead wood. Which is the primary weakness of a Markash monster, a fire user.
The Monster tried to swipe of the Demonic Fiery Flame but because of its combustion, even if there is no triggering the catalyst from its explosion it will explode once more and the 2nd explosion was the one that is much stronger than the first move.
*KABOOM* and from that explosion, half of the body of the Markash monster shattered and flew away. And from that moment Cai Dinxiang saw where the seedling sprout was.
But then he slammed to the wall by the hand of the Markash monster. Cai body slammed on the wall and dropped on the ground, and when he was trying to get up his whole body surrendered. "Ughk!~" Cai tried to get up from where he is, to look at the Markash monster. And it was a dangerous situation: the Markash monster was going towards his location.
``What the heck why am I keeping failing this kind of training~~`` Cai Dinxiang thoughts as he saw the monster is walking towards him but an ice wall that Li Ye raised created stopped the Markash monster.
Because of the ice wall, quickly rise from the ice floor, Cai Dinxiang crawled farther from the site of the battle and slowly stood back up while running back toward the formation. He looked back, and he saw that the large ice spikes are trying to injure and soon be able to kill the seedling sprout that was at the left of the Markash monster.
"I need to end that monster or we are the one who will meet end of our training!" Cai Dinxiang returned and so he dashed forward and as he dashed forward, he saw the seedling sprout out in the open as he dashed forward. "Alright 1 shot! A clear one shot enemy that I will definitely do!" Cai Dinxiang arms fired up and engulfed by his Demonic fiery flame. And when he raised his hands.
The Markash monster turns around and opens its mouth. "Holy-!~" Cai Dinxiang shouted, so his last chance was to collided both of his fist together and then he directed the formed Demonic fiery flame from the collided fist to the mouth of the Markash monster.
The fiery orb that was formed fired towards the Markash monster\'s mouth and exploded and soon after, it engulfed the Markash monster with the demonic fiery flame. Cai Dinxiang walk out from the Demonic fiery flame as the Markash monster dropped on the ground.
