"This is …" The first to be shocked was Thorne Merlin. As the commander of the Merlin Family's Planar Legion, Thorne Merlin had spent most of his life in different planes. Thorne Merlin's experience wasn't something an ordinary Sword Saint could compare to.
At this time, cracks appeared on the ice under his feet, and a rumbling sound echoed in the distance. A terrifying name suddenly appeared in Thorne Merlin's mind.
Mammoth, Ice Field Mammoth!
Only such a terrifying magic beast could cause such a huge commotion in the Ice Field that hadn't melted for ten thousand years.
In those days, when Thorne Merlin was only an Expert Swordsman, he followed the Merlin Family's Planar Legion and participated in the struggle for the Ice Prison Plane. That Planar War was like a nightmare to Thorne Merlin.
Thorne Merlin clearly remembered that the Merlin Family's Planar Legion was already famous in Okland at that time. In a short ten years, they conquered four planes. The entire Merlin Family was blindly optimistic. With the Merlin Family's current strength, taking the Ice Prison Plane was only a matter of time.
Then, the Merlin Family knew that they were wrong.
At that time, the Merlin Family's Planar Legion attacked the Ice Prison Plane and didn't spend much effort to establish their first stronghold in that new plane. They then used that stronghold to spread out and slowly nibble away at that new plane. It only took a year for the Merlin Family to annex most of the Ice Prison Plane. The entire Merlin Family was clamoring to cross the Winter Ice Field and plant the Merlin Family's flag on the Winter Summit.
After a year of preparation, the Merlin Family's Planar Legion started marching towards the Winter Ice Field.
Then, disaster struck.
On the first night the Planar Legion set foot on the Winter Ice Field, Thorne Merlin was awakened by a rumbling sound. When he opened his eyes, he saw that he was in Hell. Those huge monsters with long fangs were rampaging through the camp, and the ice field under their feet was already dyed red with blood. The Planar Legion, which was known as the pride of the Merlin Family and looked down on all of Okland, didn't even have the power to resist in front of these monsters.
Mammoth, ice field mammoth …
Yes, only this terrifying magic beast known as the Overlord of the Ice Plains could destroy an entire Planar Legion so easily.
Thorne Merlin stood there in a daze as he looked at the Planar Legion being crushed by the Ice Field Mammoth. The hellish scene filled Thorne Merlin's mind. Even after so many years, Thorne Merlin couldn't forget the sound of the Ice Field Mammoth's charge.
"Fuck, it's an Ice Field Mammoth!" After a short silence, Lahn Merlin suddenly let out a shriek.
This 4th Rank Archmage completely lost his demeanor at this moment. Facing this unforeseen event, he looked as if he had seen a ghost. His eyes were wide open, his hands covering his face as he let out a hoarse shriek, "Run, run! That's an Ice Field Mammoth, an Ice Field Mammoth!"
After screaming, Lahn Merlin cast Flight and pointed with his magic staff, planning to rush out of this dangerous place.
But after casting Levitation, Lahn Merlin suddenly discovered that everyone was standing there, motionless.
Moreover, they were looking at him with a strange expression.
"What are you doing?" Lahn Merlin almost went crazy. That was an Ice Field Mammoth, an overlord of the Ice Field known as the Grim Reaper. Let alone this team, even an entire Planar Legion would have no choice but to flee when facing such a terrifying magic beast!
'They …
'What are they trying to do?'
At this time, Lahn Merlin really wanted to ask, 'What are you trying to do? Don't you know that those are Ice Field Mammoths? Staying here wouldn't even be enough to fill the gaps between their teeth!'
But before Lahn Merlin could say anything, Thorne Merlin sighed.
"It's too late …"
"What?" Lahn Merlin was stunned. "What's too late?"
"It's too late …" Thorne Merlin's mind still hadn't recovered from that nightmare, and he seemed to be in a daze.
"Fuck, what's too late!"
"Sir Merlin is saying that it's already too late to escape …" Just as Lahn Merlin was about to lose control, Lin Yun suddenly interjected. After saying that, he pointed in the distance. "Sir Lahn, look over there …"
The direction Lin Yun was pointing at was behind them. For some reason, a thick white mist had suddenly appeared there.
"Do you see that, Sir Lahn? That white mist is actually the ice created by the Ice Field Mammoths as they run. If you haven't been scared to the point that you can't even use a Mage Eye, you can send a Mage Eye over. I believe you'll quickly discover that we've already been surrounded by hundreds of Ice Field Mammoths. If you use Flight to escape, you'll become a flying target. I believe that the Ice Field Mammoths would be more than happy to use their innate spells to give you a warm hug …"
"You … You …" Facing the Ice Field Mammoths, Lahn Merlin was already in a daze. But when he heard Lin Yun 'mocking, the pale Merlin actually recovered. He looked at Lin Yun with anger and resentment.
"Yes, yes …" Lahn Merlin pointed at Lin Yun, his eyes seemingly spitting fire. "It's you … It's you who led us to this place. I was wondering how the Ghost Valley's array could have been discovered by Mafa Merlin. No wonder you ignored Commander Thorne's obstruction and brought so many people. It turns out you had planned this beforehand. Mafa Merlin, you are truly scheming. In order to seize the command of the Planar Legion, you even ruined the foundation of the Merlin Family …"
"…" Lin Yun was dumbstruck. After a while, he scratched his cheek and didn't know whether to laugh or cry as he said, "I didn't know I was so amazing. In Okland, I already knew that there was an array in the Raging Flame Plane's Ghost Valley that led to an ice plane. I also knew that there was a group of Ice Field Mammoths running on the ice field of that plane …"
"Oh, right, Sir Lahn, can I ask, if I'm really that powerful, why didn't I foresee that you were a coward fleeing in the face of danger in the Raging Flame Plane?"
"Who are you calling a coward!" Lahn Merlin's voice suddenly rose a few octaves.
"Isn't it you who just wanted to flee?" Lin Yun curled his lips, as if he didn't feel Merlin Lahn's anger.
Nothing could be done about it. To Lin Yun, who had just suppressed the Lesser Lava Overlord, the anger of an insignificant 4th Rank Archmage was nothing. Lin Yun wouldn't even put him in his eyes if he went crazy.
"You …"
"Alright …" The quarrel between the two alarmed Thorne Merlin. This Planar Legion Commander finally recovered from his nightmare.
He had no choice but to admit that Thorne Merlin's prestige in the Planar Legion wasn't something a Commander like Lin Yun could compare to. Thorne Merlin only glanced at Lahn Merlin and that enraged 4th Rank Archmage immediately shut his mouth.
Then, Thorne Merlin turned to look at Lin Yun with a bitter smile. "High Mage Merlin, you see …"
Thorne Merlin's face was filled with worry as he said this. Even if Thorne Merlin was already a Sword Saint, that nightmare in the Ice Prison Plane was still a shadow in his heart. Facing these monsters that made the Merlin Family fall from the clouds, how could Thorne Merlin not be worried?
"I don't have any good methods at the moment …" Lin Yun shook his head, not hiding anything from Thorne Merlin.
Yes, the current situation was like this …
Even Lin Yun couldn't come up with any good methods.
The Ice Field Mammoths were called the Grim Reapers of the Ice Field, and it wasn't just for show. These magic beasts were level 30 on average, and they were the overlords of the Ice Field. No magic beast of the Ice Field could contend against them. They had innately steel-like skin, enough to resist most spells and physical injuries. At the same time, they were proficient in all kinds of ice spells, and with the help of the special environment of the Ice Field, they were already in an invincible position. Coupled with their physical strength that was comparable to a Thunder Beast's, when hundreds or thousands of them appeared, it would be impossible to escape once they formed an encirclement.
Just like now …
According to Lin Yun's estimates, there were at least a thousand Ice Field Mammoths surrounding them from all directions. Lahn Merlin was only a 4th Rank Archmage, so escaping from the encirclement of the Ice Field Mammoths was like a pipe dream.
Let alone Lahn Merlin …
Even Lin Yun himself might not be able to do it.
He definitely couldn't escape.
Thus, he could only fight the Ice Field Mammoths head-on.
But …
Over a thousand Ice Field Mammoths were frightening existences with an average level of 30. They could casually destroy a Planar Legion, and the people present didn't have a high chance of success.
