Chapter 452 A Lure for What?

Jiang Xiao gently patted Han Jiangxue's hand, comforting her, "It's okay if I die, it's just bait."

Han Jiangxue said decisively, "But your death has to be worth it. How much time will it take you to travel to an alien planet once?

If you go there again, it will probably waste one or two months in the upper snowfield, and that's a conservative estimate. You have to calculate the time cost.

There is a senior waiting for you, wanting to take you around the continent and broaden your horizons. Don't make him wait too long."

Jiang Xiao: "This..."

Han Jiangxue said softly, "We'll go there sooner or later, don't be impatient. The Dragon's Den on Earth may be a place with a slim chance of survival for you and me now, let alone a higher-level alien planet.

Moreover, you in the alien planet are just bait. You probably won't be able to explore anything and will just be going there to die."

Jiang Xiao: "Uh..."

Han Jiangxue: "Do what we should do at each stage. What you need to do now is to join that team and get as much information as possible from them. Don't go to die for nothing. Believe me, I'm more eager to explore the Dragon's Den than you are, but doing so now is extremely irrational."

Han Jiangxue said softly, "Be obedient, Jiang Xiao."

"Alright." Jiang Xiao scratched his head, "Then I'll go find the old man and the blind man first."

Han Jiangxue nodded gently and said, "At the end of the month, we're going to the Shadow Cave. Instructor Qin has already made arrangements. Let me give you a task."

Jiang Xiao: "Where's the logic in a team member assigning a task to the captain?"

Han Jiangxue said, "Cherish the life of the bait. On the alien planet, try to survive until the end of the month."

Jiang Xiao couldn't help but grimace and said, "Who are you looking down on?!"

The night of duty passed without incident, and so did Jiang Xiao in the upper dimension.

The next afternoon, the bait Jiang Xiao saw the outline of the coastline clearly and then descended tremblingly.

Fortunately, there were fewer Star Beasts operating in the air in the North Three Provinces, which allowed Jiang Xiao, who was only at the Star River level, to pass through this sky safely.

Bong Island, Bong Island...

Although it was winter, there was no trace of snow on this small island. Instead, there was a group of "small dots" active on the northwest coastline of the island.

As the bait Jiang Xiao continued to descend, he finally saw what these "small dots" were.

Good heavens, this is amazing...

Is this a fight between two races?

Jiang Xiao actually found figures of wildlings!

You must know that the Armory is a representative dimensional space of Central Ji Province. Although there are also some in Northern Jiang Province and Eastern Liao Province, there are not many. Unexpectedly, creatures from the Armory could be seen on this small island.

What surprised Jiang Xiao even more was that the ones fighting the wildling tribe were not their old enemies, the Ape-Ghosts, but a group of creatures covered in ice and snow.

Icebound Walkers? Ice Demons?

Flutter flutter flutter...

Jiang Xiao spiraled down, plunged into a mountain forest, landed on a branch, and his lonely eyes watched the battlefield in the distance.

After watching for a while, Jiang Xiao felt sorry for these huge Ice Demons.

The Ice Demons' Star Techniques were basically about wind and snow. More importantly, their first Star Technique, "Ice Spike," and second Star Technique, "Snowstorm," both needed to be combined with "natural snow" to be used.

However, there was no snow in this terrain at all, which led to most of the Ice Demons' martial arts being useless. They could only run around on the battlefield, wailing.

"Woooo~ Wooooo~" The huge Ice Demons in a ghostly state were wrapped in ice mist and wind and snow, with a translucent ribbon around their waists.

They were humanoid, with limbs. Because of their huge bodies, the contours of their faces and features were revealed. Jiang Xiao was shocked to find that they were actually very beautiful, with a strange beauty under the layers of wind and snow...

Let's not mention those few crying and wailing Ice Demons, after all, their faces were a bit distorted.

But those Ice Demons who were not crying and had normal expressions were unbelievably beautiful.

They had a pair of eyes emitting white mist, with long hair draped over their shoulders, dancing without wind. Their translucent long hair gently scattered and swayed in the air, creating a graceful melody.

They floated quietly in mid-air, with a trace of sadness on their faces, really like a dead soul, still attached to the life in the mortal world, reminiscing about their loved ones who were separated by heaven and man.

The bait Jiang Xiao blinked his lonely eyes, wondering if he was being too dramatic...

As for those Icebound Walkers, they looked much more comfortable. Aren't they just white-skinned snow zombies?

See? Ice Demons? Learn from them!

Otherworldly creatures should look like alien beasts!

What are you doing looking like a soul from A Chinese Ghost Story?

There are also Ice Caves on Earth. It's not like Jiang Xiao hasn't seen pictures and videos of Ice Demons. On Earth, the image of Ice Demons is not so specific and vivid.

Earth's Ice Demons are simply a blurred humanoid ghost, and it's impossible to tell whether they are male or female. You can imagine how "blurred" they are. All parts of their bodies are unclear, let alone their faces. What's going on in this alien planet?

After being transferred several times and projected to the lower dimension, were they disfigured?

As for the wildling team, they were Jiang Xiao's old friends, and they were still the same as before, with no changes in their faces, except that their bodies were relatively large, each at least two and a half meters tall.

Jiang Xiao understood that any creature here that was a battle type could be called a "tank."

Are you telling me that the one flying around is a male assassin?

Those huge purple demon eyes made Jiang Xiao secretly click his tongue. This explosive physical fitness, this murderous appearance, are these the small fries in the lower-dimensional Armory?

This is probably the reincarnation of the Ape-Ghost King!

Infiltrating the enemy and transforming into a wildling?

Are these 16 wildlings the Ape-Ghost King after taking off his mask?

However, Jiang Xiao discovered a problem. This wildling team was missing many elements, perhaps even key elements.

First, they had no male or female witches, no leaders.

Secondly, they had no female archers, no ranged shooters, but a team of male assassins!

Is this a knife squad?

"Woooo~"

"Woooo~"

Suddenly, the six Ice Demons on the field all raised their heads and let out cries. Several cries gathered together, as if transmitting some information.

The black crow's small head stiffened. It keenly sensed something!

Just behind it, a ghost slowly emerged from the ground.

The black crow was so scared that it didn't dare to move, standing on the branch pretending to be dead.

Slowly, a huge, humanoid ghost floated to the black crow's side.

If the black feathers were Jiang Xiao's body hair, they would probably all be standing on end at this moment!

Away from the battlefield, this huge ghost raised its hand, which was shrouded in wind and snow. Then, on the bodies of the group of white-skinned zombies in the distance, ice-mist armor appeared.

Not just upper body armor, but a full set, even helmets.

The Icebound Walkers, who were originally clean, immediately turned into majestic generals. Their eyes were overflowing with ice mist. Reversing their decline, they fought fiercely with more than a dozen male assassins.

The Icebound Walkers held a glittering ice shield in one hand and an ice spear in the other. Each attack left faint traces of frost on the male assassins' weapons and bodies.

The speed of the wildling male assassins dropped sharply, and their movements slowed down.

The wildling male assassins were also exerting themselves crazily. Each time the blade struck the ice shield or the body of an Icebound Walker, it would carry purple lines, frantically consuming the Star Power and vitality of the Icebound Walkers...

The wildling male assassins all had the "Abomination" attribute. Although they could not absorb vitality and Star Power from the enemy, they could disperse and consume the enemy's vitality and Star Power.

The Ice Demons on the field floated in the air, crying again, their voices plaintive and heartbreaking.

In the midst of these cries, the ghost under the black crow's feet finally took action again. Boom!

The black crow shivered in fear. Was this... Ice Roar?

Definitely an Ice Roar of Platinum quality or higher...

Jiang Xiao had seen Han Jiangxue use Platinum quality Ice Roar too many times. He was familiar with the scene and the range.

There was no doubt that this range of attack and power was definitely above Platinum.

When this Ice Roar slammed down, whether it was the wildling male assassins with explosive physical fitness or those Icebound Walkers wearing ice-mist armor, all were turned into broken limbs and flesh!

The black crow's eyes suddenly widened!

Four male assassins and three Icebound Walkers, all gone in an instant?

What kind of godly scene was this!?

What kind of power was this Ice Roar?

Jiang Xiao even saw a male assassin with only half of his body left, frozen stiff, falling heavily to the ground.

That wasn't the end of it. The wildling male assassins were truly savage!

Its only remaining upper body, frozen stiff, was still trying to crawl forward, shivering, opening its bloody mouth, and biting down on the neck of an Icebound Walker who fell heavily to the ground.

It was too tragic...

The Icebound Walkers were a little better. When attacked, the ice-mist armor surrounding them actually splashed out several ice bullets.

However, the bodies of the Icebound Walkers were not as damaged as imagined. At least the parts wrapped in ice-mist armor were relatively well preserved. Only the ice-mist armor was all gone. They were injured, but it didn't seem fatal.

However, one Icebound Walker was very unlucky. The neck, which was not covered by armor and helmet, was directly shattered, and the head separated from the body, resulting in instant death.

With this Ice Roar, the chaotic battlefield stopped instantly.

Except for the "cheerleader" Ice Demons who were still crying plaintively, the Icebound Walkers quickly retreated to the rear. They didn't care about their dead comrades at all, but instead roared loudly and joined the ranks of the "cheerleaders," cheering for their king.

Those wildling male assassins seemed to have good intelligence. Reason overcame their violent and bloodthirsty nature. They strode their muscular legs, leaving behind a pile of corpses, and fled frantically.

The black crow couldn't help but look down, looking at the tyrannical ice soul.

How ruthless!

This was too violent! The minions fought for a long time, evenly matched. As soon as this ice soul made a move, everything was settled...

Like the Ice Demons, the ice soul's body was also composed of illusory lines, also outlined vividly. Although it also had long flowing hair, it was more inclined to a masculine face.

The ice soul's eyes emitted a strong white mist. It slowly raised its head and looked at the black crow on the branch above.

The black crow blinked its eyes, too scared to move.

"Heh..." The ice soul exhaled a wisp of cool mist, silently looked at Jiang Xiao, and slowly stretched out its hand.

Jiang Xiao: ???

The ice soul's original illusory lines, the hand shrouded in ice mist, gradually condensed into a slender ice hand.

Under the sunlight, the ice palm shimmered with strange colors and gently beckoned to Jiang Xiao.

Jiang Xiao: !!!

"Damn it!" Back on Earth, Jiang Xiao, who was on night duty again, couldn't help but hug his head.

Watching the show?

Watch it! Let you watch! You've dragged yourself in too!?

In the duty room, hearing Jiang Xiao's voice, Han Jiangxue poked her head out from behind the computer on the opposite table and asked with concern, "What's wrong?"

What's wrong?

Jiang Xiao looked at Han Jiangxue with tears in his eyes.

The tyrannical ice soul issued me a cat-stroking invitation! Uh... a crow-stroking invitation!

Jiang Xiao looked dejected and said, "I, I'm afraid I'm going to be stroked..."

Han Jiangxue: ???
