The thick white shield blocked the attacks unleashed by Bai Jin and Iyas, as the Luo Ze Elite, blessed by the Holy Light, pressed on towards Lotcar.

Seeing the Luo Ze Elite approaching, Lotcar lifted his steps, creating distance between Bai Jin and others and the enemies, playing the role of a mobile artillery platform.

But the Luo Ze Elite had already prepared for this.

A portion of the elite Boxers had positioned themselves in the likely retreat paths of Lotcar, ready to strike.

"[Gravity Control]"

A Boxer clashed his fists, which emitted a purple light. He spread his fists apart, casting a purple column of light above Lotcar.

In an instant, Lotcar felt as if a weight of thousands of pounds was placed upon him, rendering him immobile.

Bai Jin and Iyas, on Lotcar's back, were not affected.

Since Iyas had used a Single Dispel Technique earlier, she could now only use an All Dispel to remove the [Gravity Control] from Lotcar.

However, just as Iyas removed the [Gravity Control] from Lotcar, another Boxer in front of Lotcar's right cast the same single-target strong control skill.

Lotcar's steps, which had just become light, immediately grew heavy again, with each step sinking like he was stepping into muddy waters.

After the last encounter, Liu Chuan knew there was no room for carelessness this time and had arranged the team clearly.

The numerical advantage of the Luo Ze Elite was now coming into play.

Even though Iyas still had several skills to dispel the overpowering single-target controls, new Boxers would always cast another [Gravity Control] seamlessly, keeping them firmly in check after Iyas finished her spell.

Lotcar's speed slowed down, but he still shouldered the heavy load, fulfilling his duty, carrying Bai Jin and others without stopping for a moment.

New control skills came one after another, and Lotcar maneuvered his body to avoid most of them, but still got hit by an [Ice Freeze Technique].

Lotcar knew that as long as he failed to evade a single control skill, subsequent control skills would become increasingly difficult to dodge.

Before the [Ice Freeze Technique] fully took effect, Lotcar sped up again, trying to carry Bai Jin and others further away from the advancing Luo Ze Elite.

Liu Chuan activated the Holy Light within himself, and Kui Yi also drew the dual blades from his back, chasing fervently after the gradually slowing Lotcar.

"This is quite troublesome."

Yang Yu's sword blade clashed with Aslit's knife blade, as Yang Yu took in the movements of everyone present.

The more he watched, the more Yang Yu had to admire the well-trained Luo Ze Elite, and he realized the core of the Luo Ze Empire's strategy was Bai Jin and Iyas.

Neutralizing Bai Jin and Iyas, whether by preventing the use of Weather Magic or weakening Yang Yu's team, culminating in capturing Yang Yu in one fell swoop, was the optimal choice.

The strategy of the Luo Ze Empire was clear and prioritized.

This woman in front was simply stalling him according to plan.

... Or perhaps, not entirely.

Allowing Aslit's knife blade to graze unimportant places, allowing Aslit to deal damage, Yang Yu launched repeated counterattacks against Aslit.

Yang Yu's swordsmanship seemed chaotic, yet he always managed to alter the trajectory of his sword, wounding Aslit as he attempted to dodge.

The coldness of the Sailuomen Plain was no ordinary chill; it was a phenomenon formed by the substantial accumulation of magic power.

That magic power would infiltrate living organisms, directly drawing out the heat contained within them, giving rise to unbearable cold.

Suddenly increasing in speed, Yang Yu's sharp sword blade slid over Aslit, trying to replicate last winter's trick of stripping away part of her clothing, forcing Aslit to retreat without a fight.

Unfortunately, this time Aslit was well prepared and wouldn't be embarrassed as before.

On closer inspection, Aslit's tight clothing clung to her body like a layer of thick paste.

When Yang Yu slashed at the tight suit, it instantly melded together like a puddle of mud, leaving no trace.

The black tight suit on Aslit had evolved.

Yang Yu's attacks on Aslit rippled like a stick striking water, making a splash but ultimately leaving no disturbance.

More troubling was that the suit Aslit wore also provided damage reduction.

The damage Yang Yu dealt was halved from his estimation, slowing down his attack pace.

"Do you think the same trick can work twice!

Stop thinking of cheap tricks, duel me honorably.

This time, I will kill you.

[Ghost Dance]"

A clawing Evil Ghost soared up from behind Aslit, diving into her, instantly raising Aslit's attack power, speed, and armor penetration by 10% each.

The sharp blades swirled a terrifying hurricane toward Yang Yu. Yang Yu's eyes flared with red light as he pulled out a smaller shield, bypassed the blade, and smashed the shield toward Aslit's face.

Seeing the shield getting closer, Aslit used [Avoidance Acceleration] to dodge Yang Yu's attack.

However, unexpectedly for Aslit, Yang Yu seized this brief opening, punched her abdomen, and sent her flying several meters away.

"It seems this is over." Yang Yu extracted the Flame Dragon Shield from the snow.

"What do you mean it's over? Don't think you can defeat me so easily!"

Throwing away the half mask on her face, Aslit burst into laughter, swinging her sword blade, intending to use the acceleration from [Avoidance Acceleration] and [Ghost Dance] to settle the score with Yang Yu.

But she suddenly felt her strength draining rapidly, the enhancements from the Priests were fading.

Being able to contend with Yang Yu to this extent, Aslit relied entirely on the powerful enhancements provided by allied Priests.

Now, as various enhancements diminished, an indescribable emptiness overwhelmed her.

"Looks like you've been mistaking the power others gave you for your own. This is fatal."

Saying this, Yang Yu's movements became elusive, like a Death God dancing.

In battles of the same level, Yang Yu had never been afraid.

"It's time to show the gap in skills between us."

As the words fell, Aslit's view of Yang Yu blurred into illusion.

"The same Eye-blocking Technique as before?"

That thought flashed in her mind as she saw a shadow wrapped around Yang Yu's sword blade, snapping towards her chest.

"[Broken Wind Style. Storm]"

A gust of teal magic leaped from Aslit's gripped knife handle, blowing over the sharp blade as if seeking to sever everything in existence.

However, this attack merely brushed past Yang Yu.

Yang Yu forcefully drove the sword into Aslit's upper thigh, withdrawing it with one hand without even glancing at her.

In a critical moment, Yang Yu executed a Support Charge, landing in front of Lotcar.

His eyes emitted red light, sweeping past the hammer-wielding Liu Chuan. Yang Yu plucked the [Holy Light Acceleration Stone] off Liu Chuan's waist and tossed it naturally to Iyas, then raised his shield to block the attack for Bai Jin and others.
