Evan's expression stiffened upon hearing this, and he turned to look up the hill.
Chiwil and the others also turned toward the hill with surprise on their faces, only to discover that it was none other than Meg and Amy. Amy was holding a purple wand in her hand, and specks of blue light were flying out of the wand before landing on the wall of ice that Evan and the others had been standing in.
Could it be … that this wall of ice was cast by Amy? The same thought flashed through everyone's minds at the same time. However, judging from how young Amy was, it was far more difficult to believe that she had been able to unleash an ice spell that could stop an oncoming Ironhide Bull than Evan had made a breakthrough in battle. After all, a four-year-old 4th-tier magic caster had never appeared on the entire Norland Continent before.
"Why are they here?!" A hint of urgency appeared on Chiwil's face. The sudden appearance of the second Ironhide Bull had already put the Rose Mercenary Squad in a precarious situation. Even though this Ironhide Bull had been temporarily stopped by Evan, the other one that had fallen into the trap had already forced its way out, and it looked like it would be able to jump out of the trap very soon. When that time came, no one would be able to stop it.
Meanwhile, Evan's expression also changed drastically. He had worked so hard to rebuild his image in front of Eva and Sivir, yet this little brat was trying to steal his credit. She was just a little brat who hadn't even grown out her teeth, yet she claimed that she was the one who cast the spell. She was just as arrogant as her father.
"Hmph, don't spout nonsense, little brat! You don't even know how to cast a frost spell, and you dare to claim that you were the one who set up this wall of ice? I'm a true-blue 3rd-tier magic caster, and I've been trying to break through to the 4th-tier to become an intermediate magic caster. There's always a chance that I'll be able to cast a spell of this caliber!" Evan glowered at Amy. If he really did break through to the 4th-tier and become an intermediate magic caster, then Chiwil would have to pay a price if he wanted to stay in the Rose Mercenary Squad. This was why he had continued to stay even after being rejected. It appeared that he was very close to achieving his goal, and he could even bring it up when he returned to the Rose Mercenary Squad.
"Bro Meg, hurry up and leave! There were two Ironhide Bulls here, so it was very dangerous! We can't deal with it! " Dennis shouted at Meg. His face was also full of anxiety. He had a good impression of Meg and his daughter from their previous interactions. Naturally, he didn't want to see them get involved.
"Is that so? It seems that you don't believe me. " A thoughtful expression appeared on Amy's face as she looked at Evan. She nodded, and said, "Then … I'll withdraw the spell and let you experience your true power."
He withdrew his wand, and the blue light instantly receded. The beautiful ice crystals on the ice wall in front of Evan disappeared, and the blue light also dimmed significantly, as if it had suddenly lost its spiritual nature.
After retreating for about a dozen meters, the Ironhide Bull stomped its hooves into the ground and charged toward Evan and the others again. Even though its speed was slightly slower than before, it was still extremely terrifying, and it was as if the entire mountain was trembling violently.
"This …" Evan had naturally sensed the changes that had occurred to the ice wall. The thickness hadn't changed, but something was indeed missing. However, he didn't know what it was.
However, he didn't have time to think about that now. He focused all of his attention on the oncoming Ironhide Bull, and his eyes were filled with confidence. He had been able to keep the Ironhide Bull at bay just then, so there was no way he would be able to do the same now. His wand was constantly injecting magic power into the ice wall, while his left hand was gently pressed against the surface of the ice, basking in the chill and weight of the ice.
This ice wall was the pinnacle of his work, and it was also the best manifestation of his power!
"Master Evan can do it! He's the most perfect man! He's the most powerful magic caster! " Eva stood behind Evan with a look of reverence and relief on her face. Thinking back to how Evan had descended from the sky and blocked the Ironhide Bull's attack for her, her heart thumped in her chest. It turned out that she was so important to him that he was willing to risk his life to save her. Those two guys were clearly trying to sow discord between them.
"Why do you have to seek death …" Mag took a look at Evan and Eva, who was standing behind him, and sighed in his heart. Don't you have any f * cking idea of what you're capable of? Flexing was the most dangerous thing to do.
However, he didn't have any good feelings toward this shameless couple. Biting the hand that fed him had already become a part of their repertoire. As such, he merely looked on with a calm and collected expression.
He wouldn't attack unless he was attacked first. That was Meg's principle.
"Evan should be able to keep it at bay, right?" Sam asked with a concerned expression as he clasped a hand over his chest.
"He was able to keep it at bay even though it was moving so quickly, so he should be fine now." Skol wasn't all that concerned. He grimaced as he massaged his waist and strode toward the trap with his rod in hand. The Ironhide Bull that had fallen into the trap was about to jump out, so he had to stop it.
"Don't let it come out! Otherwise, it'll be even more troublesome!" Chiwil also hurled the boomerang in his hand toward Evan and Eva with a concerned expression. He had a feeling that the ice wall had become a little different, but at the same time, he didn't think that Amy was a powerful magic caster.
However, before the boomerang had a chance to strike, the Ironhide Bull that had retreated a couple of steps back abruptly leaped out of the pit. It brushed the boomerang aside with its head before looking up at Meg and Amy. A plume of white smoke escaped from its nostrils as it charged toward Meg and Eva.
"Crap!" Chiwil and the others' expressions all changed as they hurriedly chased after the Ironhide Bull with all their might.
At the same time, the other Ironhide Bull crashed heavily into the ice wall in front of Evan.
In the instant of the collision, Evan's originally confident expression instantly changed. The terrifying power coming from his left hand, as well as the ice surface that was instantly filled with cracks, all made him terrified. The ice wall that was like an impenetrable wall just a moment ago had turned into an extremely fragile block of ice at this moment.
"That's impossible!" Eva's eyes also widened with horror and incredulity as she stared at the cracked ice wall.
"Bam!"
A crisp crack erupted as the thick ice wall was shattered into countless shards of ice. The Ironhide Bull was only slowed down slightly, and it crashed into Evan and Eva with a resounding boom. Its sturdy horns broke their bones, and it propelled them forward for several meters before crashing to the ground around 10 meters away.
