Chapter 905 - Time Freeze
Chapter 905 Time Freeze
The same tall cliff.
Mary’s tall, slender body once again appeared.
However, compared to her casual composure last time, she appeared to be in a much more awkward, roughed-up state now.
The right hand that had pierced through Greem’s shield was now scorched black, while there were similar burn marks on her delicate body and crimson armor. Though these marks vanished amidst a cloud of blood energy in less than five seconds, frustration still emerged on Mary’s pretty face.
“That damned Burning Domain!” Mary shouted resentfully.
If it weren’t for the all-encompassing Burning Domain, Greem would not have been able to hit Mary with his spells, all of which relied on his vision or spiritual guidance. Moreover, those powerful area-of-effect spells took too much time to chant. They gave Mary too much space to assault Greem.
As such, he had no chance of harming Mary as long as she didn’t run into Greem’s defensive spells. Her speed was almost beyond the limit of spiritual senses.
Greem also turned into a bluster of flames and started chasing after Mary’s figure. The boots of Ash glowed with a bright yellow flame, leaving trails of burning footprints in the air.
Greem trying to catch Mary with his thirteen points of Agility was like a clumsy seal trying to bite at a dragonfly. There was absolutely no effect aside from causing some splashes in the pool.
Mary hadn’t seemed to have expected Greem to chase after her with such a simple method. A playful idea appeared in her mind, and she ran in front of Greem, taunting him to catch up. The two of them played a game of cat-and-mouse in the sky above the cliff, turning the already dark sky bright red with flames.
The aura of the two Third Grade powerhouses raged across the battlefield. Some magical creatures that snuck close to observe the commotion turned tail and fled without turning back after sensing a familiar aura among the two.
Greem had been a disaster for the magical creatures in the Black Forest nearby. He had been visiting them repeatedly over the past few years to refine his combat skills. Greem had almost challenged every single known Third Grade magical creature within five hundred kilometers of Fire Throne.
Either Greem beat the magical creatures to the point they ran as far as they could, or Greem was defeated and ran as fast as he could back to Fire Throne. Regardless of the result, Greem always engaged alone, never calling on any companions or summoning that powerful elementium magical machine.
As such, Greem had defeated all the nearby magical creatures with his own power!
Now, Greem’s means of combat were extremely diverse. He would never strike without purpose.
However, Mary had no idea about any of this.
That was why she finally stepped into a trap when she was trying her best to taunt Greem with the intention of launching an unexpected assault on him!
In a battle between Third Grades, one’s spiritual appendages were always locked onto the opponent, even though there was absolutely no bodily contact. Even if the spiritual focus were broken off, it would quickly lock onto the opponent again. There would be no chance for the enemy to remain free of one’s Spirit for extended periods.
That was why it was usually challenging to set a trap for an opponent under such circumstances.
However, today, Greem had brazenly dug a trap in front of Mary, and she had run into it without realizing anything.
The trap was a well-hidden fire array!
The materials used to make that trap were the fire footprints that the boots of Ash left in the air.
Greem appeared to be leaving chaotic footprints all over the sky, but he was secretly constructing a hidden fire array that stretched for a hundred meters. When Mary unknowingly dashed into the area, the one hundred footprints in the air lit up simultaneously. A faint fire array then enveloped Mary.
Truly, whatever you were most afraid of was what would appear in front of you!
Mary’s most terrifying power was her uncontested speed.
Naturally, the trap that Greem had left for her was one that was used to limit her speed.
As the flames rose to the sky and the array revealed itself, an extremely cold fire wrapped around Mary, attempting to encase her in ice.
Mary’s face instantly flushed white!
If the Coldflames truly caught her, this battle would unquestionably end in her defeat. It was an unacceptable outcome for the prideful Mary.
In the blink of an eye, Mary let out a shrill cry. Silver light lit up on her body as she instantly appeared several hundred meters away, having broken free of the Coldflame array’s bindings.
Meanwhile, Greem’s eyes opened wide, his face with an expression of disbelief.
How…what just happened? How did Mary break free of the Coldflame trap?
His eyes couldn’t see what had happened, no did his spiritual sense capture what had transpired, but the Chip’s battlefield recording function had perfectly recorded the entire event. With the Chip’s battlefield records that had been slowed down by a hundred times, Greem could clearly see the battlefield seemingly freeze the moment Mary screamed. It was then that she stepped past the Coldflames and escaped the trap.
Time freeze.
Was Mary’s speed so extraordinarily fast that she could achieve the effect of freezing time itself?
Mary couldn’t help but be shocked at that moment!
