"What on earth are they doing?"

Not only Dobby, but also Delly couldn't understand what was happening before them. When they saw the girl knights leaving before, they thought they were planning to prepare for a raid. But soon the two of them discovered that was not the case at all, because

They saw with their own eyes a girl knight retreating all the way down the hillside, then she raised the "sword staff" in her hand, gestured towards the sky, as if to determine the direction, and then stood there motionless. While others

There is no difference between people. They are scattered and stand in completely different places. However, it is wrong to say that they are preparing to launch a surprise attack, because the positions chosen by these girl knights are all on the back of the mountain, let alone attack.

They couldn't even see the enemy.

So what is going on?

Just when they were doubting, Dai Li suddenly noticed that the other girl knights were retreating quickly. At the same time, Zhan also made a retreat gesture to herself. Although she didn't know what he wanted to do, Dai Li

Leigh and Dobby quickly came to Zhan's side.

"What's going on? Mr. Zhan, are we planning to evacuate?"

Looking at the young man in front of her, Delly couldn't help but ask. In her opinion, Zhan might have found out after the investigation that nothing could be done and planned to evacuate. However, facing Delly's question, Zhan shook his head.

rejected her idea.

"No, on the contrary, Miss Delly, we are preparing to attack. Gather your men. We will attack from the front in a moment and wipe out these guys directly."

"this……………"

Hearing this, Delly and Dobby were both stunned. This time they came here mainly for reconnaissance, so the soldiers were placed at the foot of the mountain with the carriage. But now Zhan actually asked them to gather the soldiers and prepare

Launch a frontal attack? With the strength of those soldiers, how can they fight against the frost giants and ogres?

However, facing Zhan En's request, Delly nodded and agreed without much hesitation. The nobles of this era basically regarded their private soldiers as consumables, even if they were occasionally used for preservation purposes.

It's not because they are flesh-and-blood people, but because of their strength. To put it bluntly, this is almost like players playing a strategy simulation game. If a level 1 soldier dies, it will die, but if this soldier rises to level 4, he will die.

If you become an elite and can fight tanks, it would be a pity to die.

But it's just a pity.

Soon, driven by Dobby, the soldiers gathered not far behind Zhan. However, their expressions were not as panicked as before. After all, these noble private soldiers were more or less capable. Before, they only

It was just because of the heavy rain and the sneak attack of the ogres that they did not exert their due strength. If the two sides fought head-on, although they would not be able to defeat each other, they would not retreat directly. Anyway, these

This guy is also stronger than the average person. If he didn't even have this ability, the Parwood family would have been ruined long ago.

It's just that Delly still can't figure out how Zhan plans to deal with those troublesome monsters?

But the next moment, she got the answer immediately.

After confirming that everyone was ready, Zhan nodded to Patilina beside him. Seeing Zhan's actions, Patilina immediately turned around and faced a magic suit not far away.

The knight made a gesture. Soon, he saw the girl knight raising the sword and staff in her hand, and began to chant something in a low voice. Then golden rune lines rose from the ground, surrounding the girl layer by layer, and then

, turned into a pillar of light soaring into the sky.

Like a signal, along with the burst of light pillars, in the distance, one light pillar after another rose from the ground, reaching straight to the sky. And then, one saw golden lines emerging from the light pillars, extending in all directions as if being attracted.

, and soon connected with other light pillars to form an extremely huge and complex array.

"This is……………"

Seeing this scene, Delly's eyes widened in surprise, looking at the golden light pillar. As a mage, she could clearly feel the power of law contained in this light pillar. The surging magic power was as unstoppable as the violent waves.

Surging, rushing like a galloping wild horse, but the thread of law firmly controlled this violent wild horse like a rein, forcing it to slowly calm down. Soon, the originally free wild horse was under the control of the law.

Under the power of the power, it turned into an obedient mule and began to pull the mysterious millstone with all its strength. The roaring magic power began to circulate, take shape, and transform into a brand new existence.

"This is... a temporary barrier?!"

Delly was stunned, feeling as if she was in a dream. She already understood what those girl knights were doing - by God, they actually created a temporary barrier around the valley?!

After realizing this, Delly's first reaction was that this was impossible! But soon, she immediately discovered that this was indeed a good idea!

Starfall Fang is the territory of the Parwood family. Due to the special scenery here, many people have come here. Delly is naturally no exception, so she is also very familiar with it. Although the territory occupied by the cultists

It's not small, but it's not big either. Strictly speaking, it's only about half the size of a fortress, and because it's surrounded by cliffs, people inside can't get out and people outside can't get in. In this case, a direct formation

A temporary barrier is indeed a very clever way. Even if these girl knights go around to the side or even behind the opponent, they will not be able to attack the girls. In this case, forming a node and creating a temporary barrier, then

It's like catching a turtle in a urn.

If it were anyone else, doing this kind of thing would just be a thankless task. The most important thing about a barrier is to first form a core point, and then extend outward from the center. Form a perfect barrier from the inside out.

, but covering it from the outside to the inside like Zhan, first of all, consumes a lot of magic power, and secondly, the maintenance time is not long. Generally speaking, it is not worth the gain.

But the situation is different now. What they need is offense, not defense, and they do not need to maintain a large barrier for a long time. In addition, each of these girl knights has master-level magic strength, and can perfectly perform magic elements.

It resonates with the same tone, so the power of the barrier itself can also be guaranteed.

As a result, instead of being able to protect the safety of the cultists, the lair covered by the temporary barrier has become a prison for imprisoning them. Covered by a large magic barrier, they cannot even escape!

Soon, Delly's speculation turned from fantasy to reality.

The abnormality in the sky was so obvious that the cultists quickly realized that something was wrong, but before they could react, disaster had unexpectedly befallen them.

Thick dark clouds condensed and rotated under the influence of magic, pressing down like a huge dark mountain. Soon, the cold wind howled, and the white snowflakes danced with the wind. In a short time, the temperature inside the entire valley had dropped.

When it reached subzero, the coldness suddenly overflowed, and the originally flowing rivers were completely frozen. The cultists and kobolds were the first to suffer the disaster. The howling cold wind mixed with ice and snow blew down like knives, leaving them

They were caught off guard. You must know that it is still summer on the surface. The climate of the Eagle Plateau is relatively cool, but it is not as cold as winter. Therefore, these cultists don't wear much. The current ice barrier will lower the temperature here almost instantly.

Reaching the level of the Antarctic Circle, the cultists and kobolds couldn't stand it immediately. There were also a few cultists who knew a little bit of magic, trembling and wanted to develop their spells, but the biting cold air made them even cast spells.

Wendu couldn't read it clearly, and there was no way to counter the spell. Only the frost giants could face the biting cold wind without changing their expressions. After all, they were a race from the top of the mountain and had long been accustomed to the cold.

"Quickly, let the frost giants destroy those damn mages!!"

A cultist wearing black robes, with a pale face from the cold, shouted and gave orders. Soon he saw the guy nodded, then turned around and braved the cold wind, running towards the frost giants not far away.

At this moment, the situation suddenly changed.

"call----!!"

In just the blink of an eye, a black shadow fell from the sky and penetrated the cultist's body without hesitation. The poor unlucky guy didn't even realize what happened, so he fell to the ground and couldn't get up again.

. And it was not until this time that everyone realized that what penetrated his body was a crystal clear icicle. It looked as long as a knight's spear. The gun was completely condensed with ice crystals and even exuded white.

Cold breath. And the cultist didn't even shed any blood. He was completely covered in hoarfrost and turned into a literally cold corpse.

"not good!!"

Seeing this scene, everyone else was shocked, but unfortunately, it was too late.

The whistling ice crystal prisms poured down like a storm, covering the entire valley. They penetrated the dilapidated and simple houses without any stagnation, and erected a beautiful forest of ice on the entire ground. And those

The cultists and kobolds were the first to suffer the worst. The sudden cold air slowed down their movements. There was no way to escape the rain of death from the sky. Soon, many people were seen

Screaming like this, they were pierced by ice edges and fell to the ground covered with white frost without making a sound. The frost giants were not much better either. Although their bloodline allowed them to adapt to the erosion of the cold air, the giants' huge

However, their bodies also made it impossible for them to avoid the bombardment of ice crystal prisms. The sharp ice crystal prisms tore their thick skin and penetrated their muscles, causing these frost giants to fall to the ground wailing and letting out painful gasps.

For a time, the entire valley was like hell.

However, the temporary barrier was only "temporary" after all. After just three to five minutes, the dark clouds dissipated, and the light beams of the law gradually disappeared along with the fluctuations of magic power. Soon, the sky cleared up again, and the soft brilliance of the sun shone on the earth again.

But Zhan's face did not look relaxed because of this. On the contrary, he squinted his eyes and looked at the valley depression not far away with cold eyes.

"Mr. Zhan, what are you..."

Seeing Zhan's expression, Delly's originally relaxed mood sank slightly, but before she could say anything else, Zhan suddenly pulled out his sword and pointed forward.

"All hands on attack!"
