Hettie Yadai's motive was self-evident. She wanted Shien to use the Holy Sword to free her people who were sealed in ice.
She had said before that this matter might be very troublesome for others, but for Shien, it was just a piece of cake.
That was why Hettie Yadai did not hesitate to personally make a trip to the human world after knowing that the Hero had reappeared.
"Initially, I wanted to ask Her Highness Rosie, the most precious treasure of the Mithra Kingdom, for help. However, Her Highness has yet to mature. Her talent and potential are terrifying, but she might not be able to handle it. In addition, she has a special identity. She also has the protection of the Goddess of Fate, Lidas, and the many goddesses of the Protoss. Even I don't dare to act rashly."
Hettie Yadai explained to Shien.
"All these years, I've been looking for people with space-related and time-related abilities. However, I don't know if there are people with such abilities. Even if there are people with such abilities, they might not be strong enough to break the ice of the Ice Maidens."
The Ice Maidens were level-80 Demons who reached adulthood. Some of them were even Legendary-level existences. When such existences used the ability [Ice Net Dispersal] in a life-and-death situation, one could imagine how strong they would be.
At the very least, Hettie Yadai, who was an ultimate powerhouse, could do nothing about the ice of her people.
As long as it was a Legendary-level Ice Maiden, the power of [Ice Net Dispersal] that they released after losing control was enough to threaten an ultimate existence like Hettie Yadai.
Even for the Ice Maidens who had yet to reach the Legendary-level, their [Ice Net Dispersal] might not be able to threaten Hettie Yadai. However, Hettie Yadai wasn't confident in using her own strength to break the ice without affecting them.
As for the transcendent-level demons, they were too powerful, and they didn't have the [Ice Net Dispersal] ability like Hettie Yadai. It was as if they were not specialized in this, and they could only use brute force to solve the problem.
However, it was hard to guarantee that the Ice Maidens in the ice would not be harmed.
"In short, this problem is still rather tricky." Chafine shrugged and said helplessly, "It's not that we can't solve it, but it happens to be stuck at a very uncomfortable point. We don't know how to make a move to ensure that it's foolproof."
If the Ice Maidens were weaker, Hettie Yadai would be able to solve it easily without the demons.
The problem was that there were no weaklings in the Ice Lady Race. Once they reached adulthood, they would reach level 80. Even the weakest of them would be able to freeze a Legendary-level powerhouse and put him into an eternal slumber.
This was a unique skill, a power that transcended the norm. It would always display a miraculous effect in some unexpected places, or cause unexpected trouble.
For example, Tierre's Unique Skill allowed her to grow horns. There was also a Unique Skill that could turn a normal person into a monster. There were even Unique Skills that could bring unimaginable side effects that could endanger one's own life, or even those around them.
Compared to these types of people, those who awakened unique skills that were useless were considered lucky.
The Ice Maidens' [Ice Net Flow] was extremely powerful. It was so powerful that it should not be easily obtained.
Those who did not have the appropriate temperament, spirit, and realm would end up losing control and going on a rampage.
The Ice Maidens' fate was a living example.
"In the past, when His Majesty the Demon King was still alive, he could easily solve this problem. Even if I lost control and went on a rampage, he could release me with a wave of his hand, right?"
Hettie Yadai said this and then immediately shut her mouth.
"… Yes." Chafine's smile faded as if she was reminiscing about something. She muttered, "Although she always appears to be heartless, as long as it's something we ask of her, she will complete it."
The atmosphere suddenly became somewhat heavy.
Sean glanced at Hettie Yadai, then at Chafnir, and suddenly spoke up.
He suddenly said, "According to what you said, I can do the same thing with a wave of my hand, but I'm not heartless at all."
With just one sentence, the heavy atmosphere was immediately broken.
"You …"
Chafine rolled her eyes at Shien.
But she also knew that Shien was deliberately changing the topic.
So, Chafine continued what Shien said.
"If you can really solve the problem of the Ice Maidens, then I'm afraid there will be a huge change in the forces of the Realm of Demons."
Wasn't that right?
As a race second only to the Dragon race among the Demons, although the Ice Maidens had a small population, all of them could awaken a powerful unique skill like [Ice Net Flow]. All of them were powerhouses, and there were even quite a few Legendary powerhouses.
The Stone Maidens, who were known as the number one race of the Succubus Territory, had three Legendary powerhouses. As for the Ice Maidens, even without Hettie Yadai, there were no less than five Legendary powerhouses.
In addition, the rest of the Ice Maidens were all unpredictable bombs that could explode at any time, dragging their enemies into a situation where even time and space were frozen. If such a race were to reappear in the world, one could imagine how much turmoil it would bring to the Realm of Demons.
Of course, as the peak of the Demons, the demons would definitely be happy to see this.
After all, this meant that the deterrence of the Demons had become much stronger.
"Now, my precious Liel is going to be anxious."
Chafine said these words cheerfully, not feeling the slightest heartache.
"You're a demon, right?"
Sean was very serious when he said this sentence.
On the other hand, Hettie Yadai promised Sean even more seriously.
"This time, if you can help me save my people, the Ice Maidens will owe you a big favor. No matter what happens in the future, we will repay you."
Hettie Yadai's promise was not solemn, and the content did not seem very sensational, but Shien felt that the more it was so, the more unimaginable the benefits would be.
There was no other way.
"The Ice Maidens mean what they say, and they won't beat around the bush. Since they said that they will repay you no matter what, they will probably do it without hesitation even if you want them to risk their lives for you, right?"
Chafine smiled at Shien.
"You've picked up a big bargain this time, my hero."
Indeed, Shien had picked up a big bargain.
To him, it was not difficult to remove the ice seal of [Ice Net Dispersal], and it was as easy as lifting a finger.
To be able to obtain the full support of an Ultimate Level, five Legendary Level, and a number of Demon Race experts with such little effort was like a pie falling from the sky.
Although, with Sean's ability, there were many more powerful helpers around him, the [Ice Net Dispersal] was so powerful that even the Demon Dwellers did not know how to deal with it. It was definitely a good thing to rope in a force with such an ability.
"Alright, I will do my best."
Shien nodded and agreed to this matter.
"Thank you."
Hettie Yadai's expression relaxed, and she thanked him in a low voice.
Her words were simple, and her tone was not grand, but it was very sincere.
Shien felt very comfortable listening to her. He followed Hettie Yadai to the deepest part of the small forest.
Here, there was a field of snow that had suddenly appeared.
In the snow, an astonishing chill pervaded the air. Even with the protection of [External Destiny], Shien could not help but shiver, feeling a little cold.
Almost subconsciously, Shien spread out the perception of [External Destiny].
As soon as it spread out, Shien immediately noticed some clues.
"The space here is already showing signs of being frozen …"
Shien's eyes flickered.
"See, this is the effect of [Ice Net Dispersal]."
Chafine's expression was the same as usual, and she even had the time to tease Shien.
Shien ignored her. He silently sensed for a while and came to some conclusions.
"Teleportation can't be used here, and mana can't be released. The mana in the atmosphere doesn't even flow. Under such circumstances, even the most powerful mage would not be able to cast a single spell, right?"
The ability to freeze time and space was indeed extraordinary.
"No wonder Sylar sent Hettie Yadai to receive the apostle of the [Original Demon]."
With this ability, the frozen Golde would not be able to escape at all.
Hettie Yadai had even moved it 10,000 meters underground. That was probably because of [Ice Net Dispersal], which could interfere with space and time.
"Although my unique skill is a cheat, this unique skill … Alright, I'm a little greedy."
Shien did his best not to show envy in his eyes.
His unique skills were very powerful, and he had two of them, both of which were at the level of foul.
Unfortunately, whether it was [Providence] or [Numerology], they were both unique skills that supported growth, and they did not have any effect on Shien's combat strength.
As Shien became stronger and stronger, he had learned all kinds of skills and fused them into his seven major Destiny skills. He was about to reach the peak of his level, and these two skills would completely lose their effect.
For example, it had been a long time since Shien had learned a new skill, and his seven major Destiny skills could not be fused any further. Only when he leveled up, when his growth in all aspects was raised to the maximum, would it have some effect.
However, when Shien reached the limit, this effect would also be lost.
Under such circumstances, Shien naturally hoped that his unique skill could be as powerful as [Ice Net Dispersal].
"Alright, greed is insatiable, like a snake trying to swallow an elephant. I should be content."
Shien put away the random thoughts in his mind.
"We're here."
In front of him, Hettie Yadai also stopped and slowly opened her hand.
"Buzz!"
In the snowy land filled with cold air, the whole world suddenly began to tremble.
"Rumble …"
The ground trembled, causing snowflakes to dance.
The cold wind raged, causing the frozen space to become chaotic.
Not long after, icicles rose from the ground.
In the snowy land, a rather spectacular scene was gradually taking shape.
