Chapter 452 - 452 Song of Fire and Ice Rain
At that moment, a large hole appeared in the Starlight Canopy, rapidly expanding, exposing Zhenbei City to all the foreign races, like a young girl who had been stripped naked.
Venomous snakes swarmed the border and headed toward Zhenbei City.
Not long after, they slithered into the region where the hole had been excavated. However, many of the venomous snakes were not large. They slithered as they moved forward, so they were fast and caused little pressure on the ground.
Many of the venomous snakes were fine after they rushed into the pit area.
However, among the snakes, there were also many giant venomous snakes.
The moment those giant venomous snakes charged in, their bodies pressed against the ground, and as they slithered, the sounds they made were extremely fierce and terrifying.
Countless venomous snakes began to approach the city wall.
Boom!
Suddenly, a loud noise came from under one of the giant snakes. Then, a terrifying force burst out from the ground. Red flames and cold air burst out at the same time. The ice and fire collided and turned into a berserk destructive force. The fire and ice exploded crazily, causing a terrible destructive power.
The giant snake was engulfed on the spot by the destructive force produced by the collision of ice and fire. Its body was completely blown apart, and blood and flesh splattered everywhere. The fire and ice power that scattered out also covered numerous venomous snakes nearby. A large number of venomous snakes were instantly covered by the flames and were completely burned. Some of the venomous snakes were instantly frozen and turned into ice sculptures. Then, they were shattered into pieces by the impact of the great strength.
The berserk ice power exterminated the vitality in the group of snakes the moment they were frozen.
The area within a hundred feet had completely turned into a purgatory of ice and fire.
Boom, boom, boom...
Such scenes were happening one after another, covering most of the open space in front of the city.
One could see that the giant snakes triggered the traps beneath them one after another and then exploded. The ice and fire power erupted, blasting the giant snakes’ bodies into pieces and destroying a large number of venomous snakes with the ice and fire they spewed out. They were either burned to ashes or frozen into ice shards.
The group of snakes was instantly trapped in a purgatory of ice and fire.
Many venomous snakes were killed on the spot, exploding into countless pieces. The thick smell of blood filled the battlefield.
The massive group of snakes had suffered countless casualties in just a few breaths.
Hiss-
Many people on the city wall gasped when they saw that, their faces filled with shock.
They had never thought such a terrifying destructive power would erupt underground. The menacing group of snakes was stunned by the explosion.
The original ferocious momentum was instantly destroyed by half.
The continuous and concentrated explosions caused the earth-shattering ice and fire power to envelop the battlefield, turning it into a world of ice and fire. The clash of ice and fire erupted with a berserk destructive force.
“What a terrifying destructive power. Is this the weapon of war that the master craftsmen of the Sky Workshop have been secretly researching? It is indeed powerful. This destructive power is a fatal threat to any Transcendents below the divine realm. Even fierce beasts with powerful bodies were blown to pieces by the explosion.” On the Void Warship hidden in the void, Li Jing and the others saw that scene and could not help but reveal grave expressions.
He had heard that the master craftsmen of the Sky Workshop had been researching a powerful weapon of war, and it seemed to be developed based on the ideas of the Country Lord. However, he did not expect that the product of their research would be so powerful.
“Ice and fire are meant to be two opposing forces. The master craftsmen can actually gather the two forces and not cause a collision for a short time. However, once they get in contact, the fragile balance within will be broken. In the end, when ice and fire collide, they can break out into a destructive power several times or even dozens of times stronger. As expected of the master craftsmen.”
Zhao Yun muttered to himself.
Although he did not know much about forging weapons and equipment, he could understand its basic principles.
From the explosion, he could already guess that it was a mighty destructive power produced by the fusion of the ice and fire power.
“So powerful! I didn’t expect the Kingdom of Dawn to have such a powerful weapon. If I’m not wrong, it must have been caused by the black orbs buried underground. The number of black orbs buried underground was quite shocking. Once they explode, the degree of destructive power they will cause is unimaginable. This place is a completely forbidden zone for life. Fortunately, I didn’t go out for a stroll these few days. Otherwise...” A pale-faced man couldn’t help but secretly gasp.
The power of those black orbs was like heaven and earth compared to the Thunderbolt Seed he knew. There was no way to compare. One or two were nothing, but the entire area was now covered in those black orbs.
That had undoubtedly turned the nearby region into a death zone.
Once they entered, they would be blown to pieces and torn to pieces by the ice and fire power. They would either be burned to ashes or turned into ice sculptures.
“I can’t help but be impressed! The collision of the ice and fire power is tough to control. These are two extreme powers with opposing natures. The power produced when they collide will become the purest and most berserk destructive power. Coupled with the explosion’s impact, it was no wonder that even the bodies of the fierce beasts could not withstand it and were torn into pieces. With the existence of this forbidden zone, it’ll be difficult even to get close to Zhenbei City.” The sculpted middle-aged man from before said in admiration.
That scene also brought a strong sense of intimidation to many Transcendents. No one would have thought that the Kingdom of Dawn had such a trump card. No wonder they dared to stand firm in front of the foreign races. No wonder they dared to provoke the fierce beasts from the foreign races.
If they couldn’t pass through that forbidden zone, the entire Kingdom of Dawn’s defense would be like an iron wall.
They could only use their lives to pay for it if they wanted to pass through.
However, there were hundreds of cities in the Kingdom of Dawn. How many lives would they have to sacrifice?
It was no exaggeration to say that half of the enemies would die before they reached the city wall.
Every step they took was in the blood of countless lives.
That was definitely the most terrifying weapon to defend a city.
“They used the runes of the Icicle Spell and Fireball Spell, fused them into a special alloy, and forged a sphere. Yet, the two opposing extreme forces can maintain a fragile balance within the sphere. Once they touch, they will explode. In the process of forging this item, the most crucial point is to isolate the power of the two types of runes. This kind of isolation must be able to be broken at any time. Otherwise, it cannot display its destructive power. Moreover, it needs to contain the ice and fire power so that it will not be frozen by ice or burned by raging flames. However, it will be shattered by the vibration. This alloy material is the key to making a Rune Bomb. If this problem cannot be solved, it is impossible to make such a Rune Bomb.”
