"If the islands aren't too far apart from each other, I can freeze the water between the islands," said Mu Ningxue.
"Freeze them all? Do you need the help of other Ice Mages? "asked Ai Jiangtu.
Mu Ningxue shook her head and said, "I can do it on my own, but I won't be able to participate in the battle."
"If you can freeze the water between the islands, it will restrict the Scarlet Soaring Demons' strength. Leave the rest to us," said Ai Jiangtu.
"Alright, let's do it!"
"We'll escort Mu Ningxue to a suitable location. Once the water is frozen to a certain thickness, even if the Scarlet Soaring Demons break through the ice, they won't be able to harm us. It's a good plan!"
…
The four islands were filled with lush plants. However, most of the plants were red in color. From afar, they looked like four clusters of flames burning on the surface of the sea.
Guan Yu had found a suitable route to sneak into the islands. A small team like theirs had the advantage. If an army of Magicians came, they would be discovered by the Sea Monkey Monsters before they could even reach the islands!
The sea creatures were smarter than the rest of the demon creatures. They knew how to weigh the pros and cons. If they saw a large group of Magicians ambushing them, they would immediately jump into the boundless sea, leaving the human Magicians with no chance of success!
There were only ten of them on the Scarlet Soaring Demons' side. Nan Rongni did not follow them into the islands. She was in charge of guarding the ship. If there was any danger, she would be able to cover everyone's retreat.
The team consisted of Ai Jiangtu, Nan Jue, Mu Ningxue, Mofan, Guan Yu, Zu Jiming, Li Kaifeng, Zhou Xu, Jiang Shaoxu, and Zhao Manyan. Guan Yu was a typical Wind Assassin. He would take out the Sea Monkey Monsters on the reef before the team landed. Li Kaifeng and Guan Yu had similar styles, but Li Kaifeng's primary Element was the Shadow Element and the Wind Element. His attacks might not be as strong as Guan Yu's, but his ability to sneak in was even scarier. The low-level Sea Monkey Monsters were nailed to the ground before they knew what was going on!
Li Kaifeng continuously threw out the Giant Shadow Spikes. The dozen or so Sea Monkey Monsters that were basking in the sun on the reef were all fixed in place, they couldn't even make a sound.
Guan Yu turned into a blur that kept changing his position. It was almost impossible to see him stopping.
The dozen or so Sea Monkeys didn't live for more than a few seconds. Their necks were all pierced, and they fell limp to the ground …
"Zhi zhi zhi ~ ~ ~ ~ ~!!"
A Sea Monkey crawled out from a crack in the rocks. Its pair of eyes that resembled a dead fish suddenly realized that its little companions had all collapsed. The monkey was completely dumbfounded. It took a while before it realized that it had to escape!
"Damn it, I missed one!" Guan Yu was frustrated. He did not expect there to be another one hiding in the gap.
The Sea Monkey's speed was very fast. In the blink of an eye, it was already dozens of meters away. Its cry was not very loud and would be covered by the sound of the waves. However, if it ran a hundred meters away, the Sea Monkeys in other areas would be able to hear it!
"Blink!"
While Guan Yu was cursing in his heart, a cold voice came from behind him!
Guan Yu was startled. He immediately saw a blurry figure in front of him.
The space shuddered eerily, as Ai Jiangtu with a well-proportioned body appeared from the blurry space …
Ai Jiangtu was standing on top of a protruding rock. He was around fifty meters away from the Sea Monkey that was trying to escape. He immediately extended his hand at lightning speed and grabbed something from afar. The Sea Monkey that was trying to escape suddenly came to a stop despite the fact that he was grabbing at the air.
Ai Jiangtu casually swung his hand to the side. Following that, the Sea Monkey's body flew into the air and was forcefully thrown onto a reef.
"BANG!"
The Sea Monkey's head slammed into the rock. Its brain matter splattered everywhere. It died a horrible death before it could even cry out in agony!
…
The crowd stared with their eyes and mouths wide open, especially those who were still on the ship.
Just a second ago, they saw Ai Jiangtu standing on the deck, at least a hundred meters away from the beach. However, in the next second, Ai Jiangtu had already appeared on the beach and caught up to the Sea Monkey that was trying to escape!
A grab, a toss, and an instant kill. The whole process took less than two seconds. It was indescribably cool and imperious!
It was most likely the others' first time seeing the captain of the national team. They were utterly astonished when they saw how skillful he was in using the Space Element.
Mo Fan knew who Ai Jiangtu was. He did not forget how even the teachers of the Pearl Institute were forced to back away when Ai Jiangtu was infuriated!
"He's already an Advanced Magician!" Jiang Shaoxu's eyes flickered with excitement, as if he had just discovered a new prey.
"It has been some time since he reached the Advanced Level," added Zhou Xu.
"That … that's Blink, such an amazing ability, to appear a hundred meters away in the blink of an eye. The movement abilities of the Wind Element, Shadow Element, and Earth Element are nothing compared to it!" exclaimed Zhao Manyan.
Ai Jiangtu was a cautious person. He closed his eyes and used his Space Element to sense the ripples of the space around him.
After confirming that there were no other Sea Monkey Monsters around, he signaled to Nan Jue.
Nan Jue was most likely the only one who could understand Ai Jiangtu's hand signals. Nan Jue told the team that they were ready to land. However, the ship immediately backed away from the islands and asked Nan Rongni to use the Camouflage Device to hide the ship on the surface of the sea.
The Camouflage Device was a device used to camouflage the eyes of the Light Element. It was similar to a huge mirror, concealing a huge object. From afar, there was nothing on the ship. Only the military knew how to make something like that … it was also prohibited from being sold.
After the ship was camouflaged, Nan Rongni was in charge of guarding the ship while the others disembarked from the ship. They had successfully infiltrated the triangular islands.
"We'll sneak up to this spot, and ask Mu Ningxue to freeze the water between the islands. Not only will we be able to eliminate the Scarlet Soaring Demons, it'll be a great help to us in the battle too. However, we're already very close to the Scarlet Soaring Demons, so we'll need one or two people to alert the Scarlet Soaring Demons and lure them somewhere else, so the Scarlet Soaring Demons won't notice us before the ice is thick enough, "Nan Jue explained the plan.
"Leave it to Mo Fan. He's a Fire and Lightning Magician. He's good at both Lightning and Fire. Just fire a few cannons at their caves, and the Scarlet Soaring Demons will surely swarm out …" Zhao Manyan immediately recommended Mo Fan to do the job.
"I'm fine with it, but I do need someone to protect me while I'm channeling my spells," said Mo Fan indifferently.
Ai Jiangtu nodded and said, "You two will attack their nest from the other side. Make it as big as possible."
Zhao Manyan's face darkened after hearing the order.
It was fine if they did a good job blasting the demon creatures' caves, but they might end up being surrounded by the infuriated Scarlet Soaring Demons.
