In fact, the others were also aware of this problem, including Lahn Merlin. Otherwise, Lahn Merlin wouldn't have been in such a hurry to escape.
Unfortunately, as Lin Yun and Thorne Merlin exchanged words, Lahn Merlin knew that he couldn't escape.
"What should we do, what should we do, what should we do …" With his last hope dashed, Lahn Merlin suddenly went out of control. An esteemed 4th Rank Archmage was like a helpless child at this moment. He held his head with both hands, his pale face filled with pain. "I don't want to die here …"
"Alright, shut up!" Thorne Merlin's expression was also very unsightly. In this kind of situation, even if he was an experienced commander who had been on the battlefield all year round and had experienced countless Planar Wars, when Lahn Merlin lost control of his emotions and started giving up, he couldn't help becoming irritable. As he spoke, he fiercely glared at Lahn Merlin.
In fact, even he didn't know what to do.
The current situation was unprecedentedly bad.
As a result, a sense of powerlessness rose from the depths of the experienced commander's heart.
"No one is willing to die here!" Thorne Merlin looked at Lahn Merlin resentfully and coldly said, "Although we haven't thought of a way yet, that doesn't mean that we don't have a chance. The more dangerous the situation is, the more we can't panic. You are like a headless fly. You don't even need to wait for the Ice Field Mammoths to rush over, you might as well kill yourself …"
After being reprimanded by Thorne Merlin, Lahn Merlin, who had lost control of his emotions, gradually calmed down. But this 4th Rank Archmage still looked somewhat dispirited, his face filled with despair.
"What we need to do now is to stick together and not separate. Only by doing so will we have a chance to survive …" Thorne Merlin looked at the white mist covering the sky as the thunderous rumbles got closer and closer. His face was devoid of blood as he said those words.
Even if their team of six were all Archmages and could be considered luxurious in Okland, he didn't have any confidence in facing over a thousand Ice Field Mammoths.
Although he was now a Sword Saint, after experiencing that nightmare, he was still fearful of the Ice Field Mammoths, who were known as the Grim Reaper of the Ice Field …
"Rumble …"
The icy plains beneath everyone's feet trembled violently, and the cracks in the ice grew larger and larger. The muffled sound of thunder rumbled from afar, falling into everyone's ears. It was like the most terrifying sound in the world, and at that moment, everyone's faces were filled with shock and fear.
As the white mist filled the sky, the Ice Field Mammoths' silhouettes finally appeared in everyone's line of sight. Those ferocious monsters with long tusks and the size of small hills were rampaging on the Ice Field. For a moment, large areas of ice cracked, and countless ice shards were sent flying in the violent tremors …
This ice hadn't melted all year round and was very hard. Even some newly advanced Archmages would have to spend a lot of effort to use all kinds of High Tier Spells to shatter it. But those Ice Field Mammoths were able to shatter the ice just by running on it. From this, it could be imagined how frightening their physical strength was.
Hundreds of Ice Field Mammoths besieged them from all directions, their four limbs heavily trampling the Ice Field as they ran at full speed. The sound they made could only be described as deafening.
"Coming, coming … They are already here, you still haven't thought of a good way?" Lahn Merlin angrily shouted, the despair on his face becoming even more apparent.
The people in the team responded with silence. They were all nervously watching all of this. Those monsters with long fangs and the size of small mountains were especially ferocious in their eyes.
It had to be said that the momentum displayed by the 1,000 Ice Field Mammoths was indeed a little frightening. In fact, there was an instant where most of them had completely given up on resisting.
At this time, perhaps no one noticed that the silent Lin Yun was frowning, staring into the distance in a daze. He didn't seem to care about those Ice Field Mammoths charging over.
"High Mage Merlin, Merlin …" Thorne Merlin shouted twice, but he suddenly discovered that the other side wasn't responding. At such a crucial time, the young mage was still absent-minded. Did he not know how bad the situation was?
But he didn't have the time to get angry and quickly moved to Lin Yun's side. Just as he was about to say something, he saw the young mage calmly turning his head.
"Sir Thorne, I know what you want to say …"
"You …" Thorne Merlin was stunned. He couldn't understand why the young mage was so calm in such a dangerous situation. What was going on?
'Did the young mage think of a way?'
Thorne felt a bit uneasy, but he squeezed out a smile that was even uglier than a crying face and calmly waited for the young mage to speak again.
But he didn't have to wait too long. After a few seconds, the young mage's voice slowly echoed, "I have a way …"
Although Lin Yun's voice was very soft, it clearly reached everyone's ears. In an instant, everyone's gazes focused on him, their expressions becoming tense. His simple words were like a stone thrown into a calm lake, causing a raging storm in everyone's hearts.
"What … What way …" Thorne Merlin's face flushed red, his voice rising a few octaves, even trembling a bit.
"This method might not be able to guarantee everyone's safety, but it's the only way at the moment …" Lin Yun's expression was still calm as he pointed towards the north. "We need to go two kilometers away and attract all the Ice Field Mammoths. As for why we need to do this, I don't have time to explain it to everyone."
Hearing this, everyone's expression became somewhat unsightly.
Because the young mage's method was a bit risky.
There were more than a thousand Ice Field Mammoths surrounding him from all directions, and each mammoth was at least level-30. It went without saying how dangerous it was to travel two kilometers under such a fierce attack.
Most importantly, they didn't have any confidence.
Even if they took a step back …
Even if they had to spend a lot of mana to break through the encirclement and reach two kilometers away, would the young mage really have a way to resolve this crisis?
That was over a thousand Ice Field Mammoths …
Not to mention their team, even a powerful Planar Legion would face the risk of being annihilated in the face of such a large number of Ice Plains Overlords.
The Merlin Family in the Ice Prison Plane was a good example.
The atmosphere froze for a moment, and a short silence appeared.
"Enough …"
Lahn Merlin broke the silence. That Archmage had a sneer on his face as he glanced at Lin Yun. "Mafa Merlin, don't try to act smart. You are a 5th Rank High Mage, how could you come up with an idea at such a crucial time? This is simply nonsense … "
A youth in his twenties, let alone a 5th Rank High Mage, even if he was an Archmage, would only be considered a junior in this team.
They were all experienced Archmages that had lived for a few dozen years, so how could a junior come up with an idea?
In Lahn Merlin's eyes, the young mage's actions were truly ridiculous.
Moreover …
What kind of idea was the young mage talking about?
Wouldn't he have to think of another way to lure over a thousand Ice Field Mammoths to a place two kilometers away? He didn't believe that the young mage had a way to eliminate over a thousand Ice Field Mammoths in one go.
Because that was simply impossible.
Without a Heaven Rank powerhouse, any of Okland's first-rate forces wouldn't be able to eliminate these Ice Field Mammoths.
But after saying that, Lahn Merlin suddenly discovered that everyone was standing there, looking at him with strange expressions.
"Do you have another way?" Thorne Merlin's voice was somewhat gloomy.
"Ah?" Lahn Merlin froze. How could he have a way? If he had, he wouldn't have lost control of his emotions and made a fool of himself in front of so many people. He squeezed out a smile on his aged face. "Sir Thorne, you are the only one qualified to make a decision …"
But Thorne Merlin didn't even look at him. He walked straight to Lin Yun and bitterly smiled at Lin Yun. "High Mage Merlin, let's do as you said …"
This decision was the result of Thorne Merlin's careful consideration. Although the young mage didn't explain it clearly, with the current circumstances, he could only gamble.
Yes, he was gambling …
He was gambling that the young mage was right …
He had always been prudent and wouldn't have done something he wasn't sure of in the past. According to the young mage's method, luring over a thousand Ice Field Mammoths to a place two kilometers away sounded absurd and meaningless. So what if they led the Ice Field Mammoths to a place two kilometers away?
Could it resolve this crisis?
If someone else had suggested this method, Thorne Merlin wouldn't have needed to think about it and would have automatically ignored it.
But the one who suggested this method was none other than the young mage who had surprised him time and time again.
Although he hadn't spent much time with the young mage in the Raging Flame Plane in the past three months, he had some understanding of him. Although everything that the young mage did seemed absurd, after some time, he would find out that the young mage was right.
