Chapter 557: Brains, but not much...Ice Firefly Warlock

"Let him go with one hand and hand over the sword with the other hand." The treasure-hunting group shouted sternly, and pointed the long sword at the adventurer's neck.

The cold sword edge made the three adventurers tremble all over.

"Despicable!" Paimeng was furious, but after looking at his own muscles, he said, "What should I do, Ying, Jiang Yi?"

"No! We want to save people, but the magic sword is very dangerous. If we give it to them, they will definitely be corrupted by the power and cause chaos everywhere." Sugar looked at the three poor adventurers and the "Sword of Humus" in Ying's hand with an entangled look.

Ying didn't say anything, but just gripped the hilt of the sword tightly with a cold look in her eyes.

The purple light on the "Sword of Humus" became brighter, dyeing the snow purple.

The man from the treasure-stealing group showed greed on his face: "The power of the black dragon."

"Sugar, please take care of Mr. Parad." Jiang Yi looked over and saw that any creature approaching Parad, like a mosquito, was torn into two halves by the invisible sword energy transformed by Qianfeng.

"Okay, okay." Sucrose mobilized the power of the Eye of God, the wind element gathered, and an experimental bottle appeared in her hand.

"Hurry up, have you thought it through? If you don't hand over the sword, we will start killing people." The man from the treasure-stealing group shouted impatiently.

Ying and Jiang Yi looked at each other.

Jiang Yi shook his head.

“It’s okay to give it to them, but the difference in strength cannot be made up by a sword. By then, both the man and the sword will be in my hands easily, but…”

"Such poor acting skills, admitting that they are a group of treasure robbers is an insult to my intelligence."

“???” Ying was confused for a moment and started to think.

"Not a treasure-stealing group?" Paimeng asked in surprise.

Sugar also looked confused.

"It's rare to see a treasure-stealing group wearing masks to cover their eyes instead of face scarves to cover their mouths. There are almost none, right?" Jiang Yi said to the treasure-stealing group members calmly, "This set of clothes must be worth a lot of money! Where did you make your fortune?"

"Yes! The treasure-stealing groups we've seen all hide their identities by covering the lower half of their faces. And their clothes all look shabby." Paimeng's IQ went up.

"They are... the Fatui." Ying thought of what Jiang Yi had shouted to the forest before.

"The Fatui..." Sugar stepped forward and questioned bravely, "The Fatui, are you kidnapping civilians to cause a diplomatic dispute?"

"What...what nonsense are you talking about?" The leading man stammered, "We are a serious treasure-stealing group. What's wrong with our styles and costumes being different?"

"We are from the Winter Solstice, led by the great Ice Queen. Even the treasure-stealing group is richer than you in Mondstadt."

Paimon spread his hands: "Okay! This inexplicable sense of superiority is the Fatui's fault. But the Fatui have actually learned to use their brains and use conspiracies and tricks? Too dangerous."

"You said... Bah!" The man in the Treasure Stealing Group uniforms was furious and whispered to himself, "Who has no brains..."

Immediately, he raised his voice and said, "Today, we, the brothers of the Treasure Stealing Group, will teach you a lesson, so that you will no longer only know the fools."

"I'll count to ten... If you don't hand over the sword, I'll make these three adventurers lose their heads."

"one two Three……"

"Yeah!" Jiang Yi was at ease. When Shatang, Ying and Paimeng's faces changed, he smiled easily, "I'll count for you. Ten!"

“Cut it!”

"You...you..." The man was so annoyed by Jiang Yi, "As an honorary knight, you are really going to watch someone die without helping."

"Once we get out of the snowy mountains, I will definitely ruin your reputation."

Paimon was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat.

What if they really chop him down, can Jiang Yi bring the dead back to life?

"Jiang Yi, we should save people." Shatang pulled Jiang Yi's clothes.

Ying looked at the three timid adventurers closely.

Jiang Yi, do you really not care about human life?

"Save me! Save me!" The three adventurers who were pointed at by swords cried out for help in unison.

Jiang Yi shook his head: "Poor drama. Please make the voice a little sad and scary. You guys have brains, but not much... If you want to be an acting talent, you need to practice more."

"Eh?"

"Eh?"

Paimon and Sucrose felt that Jiang Yi was not only scolding the Fatui.

"Do you think I can't recognize those people as your own just because they are wearing adventurer's clothes?" Jiang Yi sneered, "Today's encounter is quite unique. As a reward for you Fatui, I will wait for you to set up an ambush."

"Blackmailing people is not a good behavior."

"Yandora, take action!"

Four water bubbles suddenly rose up, and Yandora controlled them to chase the Fatui.

"Wait, you really don't care about their lives?" The leader was still preparing to continue acting. The three Fatui disguised as adventurers saw the attack coming, fled with the people who were escorting them, and then threw out the ice element potion.

Six bottles of ice element potion emit strong cold air, freezing the water bubbles.

"Now that our identities have been discovered, what else is there to say?" A Fatui dressed as an adventurer suddenly took off his adventurer's clothes, and in the blink of an eye, he changed his appearance.

A black windbreaker with a flaming hem, a hood on his head, and a brown mask on his face, revealing his red eyes.

In his hand, there was a strange and sharp exotic blade emitting a cold light.

His body turned into a shadow and disappeared into the snow.

There was no killing intent, no hostility, but an invisible sense of oppression came with the wind and snow.

"Ah! It's the debt collector." Paimeng was horrified and looked east carefully. Every shadow in the snow seemed to hide someone.

Just like a group of mosquitoes flapping their wings, an icy blue color appeared in the wind and snow. A group of ice fireflies emitting strong or weak auras appeared in the air, buzzing and surrounding everyone.

The number reached hundreds.

The surging ice element caused the temperature here to drop sharply, to the point where water turned into ice.

A little bit of frost color shines on the ice firefly.

"Hand over the sword." The man before wiped his face and a new mask appeared.

The mask was grey and black in colour, and the eyes on it were dark and hollow, quite creepy.

A vertical red line was drawn on the left eye, making the mask even more eerie and bloody.

"This sword will be presented as a gift to the honorable Executor, Lady!"

The other Fatui retreated, and a fierce Fatui vanguard appeared beside them.

The Thunder Hammer Vanguard, who are tall and strong, wearing purple armor and holding thunder hammers; the Wind Fist Vanguard, who are also tall and strong, wearing green armor; the Blue Water Gun Heavy Guard, who are thick and fat, and move like a mountain; the Ice Gun Heavy Guard, who are also fat and carry elemental devices...

In addition, there was a thin and slender rock-using guerrilla soldier holding a golden staff, hiding behind the Wind Fist.

"Be careful, behind the bushes on the upper right side of the high slope, there is a musket guerrilla soldier lying down and firing a musket." Jiang Yi directly pointed out the location of the enemy hiding in the high place.

Sugar looked at it nervously, and then a flash of fire appeared. A flaming bullet flew over and locked onto Sugar.

The continuous sound of subtle gunfire was barely audible amid the howling wind and snow.

The bullets that followed locked onto the two eagles in the air, Yandora, Paimon, and the adventurer Parad.

The musket guerrillas finished shooting and quickly moved.

The ice fireflies in the sky spit out mouthfuls of ice and snow magic bullets, like countless artillery shells covering the sky.

After discovering that Jiang Yi followed Ying, the Fatui made a detailed battle plan.

At the same time, the Wind Fist Vanguard, Thunder Hammer Vanguard, Water Gun Heavy Guards, Ice Gun Heavy Guards, and Rock Guerrilla Soldiers launched attacks at the same time.

They knew how powerful Jiang Yi was, so they gave it their all from the beginning.

Not to kill people, but just to restrain Jiang Yi and let Jiang Yi save people.

"Good cooperation." In Jiang Yi's eyes, everything was slow. The "bullet time" that had undergone countless transformations allowed him to see everything clearly.

"The Winter Vanguard, which is able to roam the seven nations, does have surprising combat qualities."

He raised his hand, and his Qi turned into sword light, splitting the flaming bullets one by one.

"Ying, get rid of them and let the 'Sword of Humus' get a new set of data." A thousand winds blew around Jiang Yi, and the ice and snow magic bullets that attacked were blocked by the wind barrier. The next second, the ice element condensed into an "Eternal Ice Crystal Core".

The "Eternal Ice Crystal Core" condensed into ice cones and shot out in all directions. Ice fireflies fell one after another. They were obviously creatures with ice attributes, but at this moment they were frozen and trapped in the ice.

An ice cone flew high into the sky, covered with a fire element shield. The musket guerrillas kept retreating and dodging, and fired continuously. After a few seconds, they were frozen on the cliff.

"Ancient... solid ice?" With a ferocious face, he gritted his teeth and looked at the ice on his body.

Jiang Yi's ice has not actually yet completed its transformation into "ancient solid ice", but the power condensed by the extreme cold cannot be melted by his fire.

"Hahaha! Come and play!" A crazy shout appeared in the wind and snow.

"You hurt my little darlings, let us take revenge!"

It was a masked girl wearing a hood, ice-blue clothing, with long legs and a nice figure, holding an ice and snow lantern.

The white chin is exposed, the beautiful figure is outlined by the tight clothes, and the coat flutters in the wind.

The ice element turns into a transparent shield, and the power of ice is released.

Sharp, jagged ice spikes rose from the ground, icy blue and sharp, as if to pierce through all living things.

Moreover, more ice fireflies flapped their wings and flew out of the lanterns, and the fragrance of mist grass in the air became so strong that it was suffocating.

Parad fell to the ground, closed his eyes, and held his head like an ostrich.

“Hallucination, hallucination!”

"This is a dream, this is a dream!"

Jiang Yi pressed his palm lightly, the earth rolled, and the energy of the earth veins turned into rock tides, spreading in all directions, shattering the ice thorns that gathered and surrounded the earth veins.

"Simulation, formless wind." Sucrose threw a miniature formless wind towards the Fatui's Wind Fist Vanguard, Thunder Hammer Vanguard, Blue Water Gun Heavy Guards, Ice Gun Heavy Guards...

A cyan crystal core floated in the air, spreading its illusory cyan wind element butterfly wings, like a giant wind crystal butterfly.

A blue wind field with pulling power that covered all the Fatui was born. With the flapping wings of the wind crystal butterfly in the center, storms surrounded and hurricanes attacked, rushing upwards.

The elements of the Fatui vanguard were covered with shields of wind, lightning, water, and ice elements, but were torn off by the strong wind and dispersed by the wind element.

The bushes turned to dust and the snow burst.

A colorful elemental reaction is born.

A huge golden barrier of rock element appeared, and the rock guerrilla soldier covered with the rock element shield used displacement magic to instantly move to the side of the Wind Hammer Vanguard Army and launched the "Rock Crystal Magic".

The rock element crystals fell and turned into relative elemental shields.

A pitch-black sword emitting purple light has come, and Ying has driven a green tornado to erect a rock peak.

When the "Sword of Humus" comes into contact with the Fatui, it absorbs the opponent's elemental power and vitality like a greedy dragon.

Yandora's bubbles and water phantoms flew outward.

Starlight flowed on Paimeng's body, and then he disappeared suddenly.

A shadow appeared under Ying's feet, and a sharp blade cut towards Ying's sword-holding wrist.
