BXBX NOVEL Chapter 276 Sword of Frost
Chapter 276 Sword of Frost
When Gelu took out this sword, Roy suddenly felt something and looked in his direction. Due to this, he was almost stabbed by a four-winged angel’s sword of flames.
As a frost demon, Roy had extraordinary sensitivity to cold. Even from afar, Roy could feel the powerful frost magic power emanating from the sword in Gelu’s hand!
“What... is that sword?!” After Roy used Frostmourne to cut down the attacking angel, he could not help but look at Gelu in surprise and then at Frostmourne in his hand.
At this moment, Gelu was enduring immense pain. When he held this crystal-clear sword in his hand, the powerful frost power on the sword had already corroded and froze his hands. But under Gelu’s desperate resistance, the ice stopped at his hands and did not continue spreading. Sensing Roy’s gaze, despite being in great pain, Gelu still gave Roy a confident look.
Then he raised the sword with his frozen hands and slowly swung it at the front of the battlefield!
The next second, powerful and vast freezing air surged out from Gelu’s sword and swept the entire battlefield! Under this extreme freezing air, Rafaro, Roy, Fat Tiger, Julia and Benia, who were fighting the stone gargoyles in the air, and finally Cassandra, who was commanding the undead army to fight, all instantly froze and turned into huge ice sculptures under the onslaught of the freezing air...
After that, the freezing air extended all the way and crossed the battlefield to the mountains in the distance, causing sparkling ice to cover the towering mountains.
The ground was frozen, the forest was frozen, and even the clouds in the sky were frozen. From where Gelu was until the end of the frost-covered land, it stretched nearly a hundred kilometers!
The might of this attack was beyond imagination!
However, what was strange was that the freezing air did not affect the troops of the alliance at all. The titans fighting Rafaro, the green dragons fighting Fat Tiger, and the remaining angels were all safe and sound.
Gelu could actually distinguish between ally and enemy to attack?!
Looking at the battlefield that suddenly turned from noisy to dead silence, the remaining soldiers of the alliance army were all stunned. Under the illumination of the flares, the ice on the ground reflected dazzling white light, as though daytime had suddenly descended.
But Gelu, on the other hand, collapsed and knelt on the ground with the sword in both hands.
“Are you all right?” Astral hurried forward to hold Gelu’s arm.
Gelu was drenched in sweat. He shook his head. “I’m fine. I suppressed the power of the Sword of Frost, so I’m just a little weak...”
As he said this, he stood up. A ball of flames appeared in Astral’s palm, and he slowly began to warm Gelu’s wrist, melting the ice for him.
Solmyr floated over and looked at the frost covering the entire battlefield. He said fearfully, “The power of the Sword of Frost is truly astonishing. If you fully release the magic power in the blade, who knows what the consequences will be...”
Yes, the sword in Gelu’s hand was the famous ‘Sword of Frost’ in the world of Ashan!
In this world, many magic items were called artifacts, and these artifacts were generally only divided into minor and major. Among the many artifacts, only one object was called a divine artifact, the Tear of Asha. It was said that this was the tear left behind by the first dragon, Asha, when she cried, and it would never disappear.
Apart from the Tear of Asha, the other magic items were called not divine artifacts. Even if they had great power, they were only regarded as major artifacts.
Clearly, the Sword of Frost was one of them! This sword contained incomparably boundless ice power. When he swung it with all his might, it could freeze the sea and destroy the world. It was a powerful weapon with the power of a divine artifact but was not called a divine artifact!
The wielder of this sword could freeze everything according to his wishes, so when Gelu swung it, he could perfectly avoid the alliance soldiers and freeze Roy and the rest of them.
Of course, there was a price to use such a powerful weapon. If he fully released the magic power in the sword, the wielder would also be frozen.
Then, why did the Sword of Frost appear in Gelu’s hands? This situation involved Roy’s appearance in this world four years ago...
Four years ago, Roy had just started exploring the Gates of the Abyss when Xeron summoned him to this world. At that time, the demon army appeared on the surface during the lunar eclipse and attacked Steadwick, the capital of Erathia. Xeron would not have died in this war without Roy as a variable.
According to the original history, in order to destroy this world, Xeron would find three powerful artifacts during this war and then use these three artifacts to create the Armageddon’s Blade that also had the power of a divine artifact in an attempt to use the Armageddon’s Blade to destroy Erathia. However, Xeron’s luck was not good. When he was carrying the Armageddon’s Blade and about to return proudly, he bumped into the righteous alliance army that had already obtained the Orb of Inhibition. When he waved the Armageddon’s Blade and failed to summon the powerful Armageddon as expected, he panicked. Facing so many enemies, Xeron could only escape, but he lost the Armageddon’s Blade, and the alliance army had taken it.
Finally, after the Armageddon’s Blade passed through various people’s hands, it fell into Gelu’s hands...
However, just like in Van Helsing world, Roy’s appearance resembled a butterfly effect and completely changed the original plot. Xeron was hoodwinked by Roy and then beaten to death by the dragons. After his soul returned to the Abyss, he rested for half a year before recovering. Although he finally returned to Ashan, he no longer had the thought of constructing the Armageddon’s Blade.
This eventually led to the Armageddon’s Blade not being able to appear in this world...
However, although the Armageddon’s Blade did not appear, because of the butterfly effect, the Sword of Frost that should have fallen into the hands of the barbarians (orcs) finally fell into the hands of Gelu.
Because Gelu was highly regarded in both the elven and human kingdoms, he was dispatched to Aglan Fortress with this sword. The humans and elves hoped that Gelu could stay in Aglan Fortress and guard this border when the demon army invaded.
Gelu had been in Aglan Fortress for a long time, but the expected demon invasion had not happened yet. However, Roy, this demon who wanted to enter, first welcomed him.
It just so happened that Alaric was ordered to bring priest troops and angels to investigate the fallen angel. Gelu and Alaric did not get along with each other. Thus, when they received a request for help from Dendera Fortress, Gelu first brought a group of rangers to Dendera Fortress while having Alaric stay in Aglan, out of sight and out of mind.
Therefore, Gelu had not actually thought of using the Sword of Frost, but plans could not keep up with the changes. The alliance army suffered heavy losses one after another. Not only was the fortress infected by the plague, but even Arantir’s undead army was buried by the demon’s artificial disaster. Finally, a faceless dragon from the ancient Elder Wars appeared...
The alliance army could not truly fight this battle to the bitter end and then use Gelu’s weapon, so when he saw Roy and Fat Tiger continuously killing the angels and green dragons, Gelu knew that he could not wait any longer. If he waited any longer, they would really destroy the army, so he attacked decisively...
In fact, the strength of the heroes of this world was not only reflected in their ability to use powerful magic but also because they were authorized to use powerful magic artifacts. Some of these magic artifacts had been passed down from ancient times, and some had been forged in recent generations. But no matter what, these artifacts had all kinds of mystical abilities and would often determine the outcome of a war.
At this moment, after seeing that both Roy and Rafaro were frozen, Astral said, “With such powerful frost power, that demon and fallen angel should have frozen to death. But it’s a little troublesome for that spectral dragon Rafaro. And that titan hellhound has dragon scales on its body, which might have resistance to ice power.”
“It’s easy to deal with this undead Rafaro. Get Alaric to kill him!” Gelu said. “As for the demon and fallen angel, just breaking the ice can kill them. There’s also a four-winged angel, which is enough to annihilate their souls...”
The heroes were discussing how to deal with the enemy, and the remaining soldiers of the alliance army appeared very relaxed. But at this moment, a naga suddenly lowered her head in doubt and looked at the ground.
Due to the lower half of her body being a snake tail, the naga was sensitive to the situation on the ground. When she lowered her head, she saw a black shadow slowly flowing under the layer of ice on the ground.
Seeing the shadow slowly covering the ground beneath her and spreading out to cover the nearby area, the naga finally realized that something was wrong and quickly warned, “Be careful...”
However, before she could finish speaking, countless black lightning bolts suddenly burst out from the shadow on the ground! This lightning was actually moving from the ground to the sky!
As though a lightning storm had suddenly descended, the alliance army was enveloped by countless black lightning bolts that soared into the sky. The remaining mages, nagas, and elven rangers all screamed as they turned into human-shaped coke. The green dragons hoving in the sky were electrocuted and crashed to the ground. It was not as bad for the titans because they also controlled the power of lightning. But under this black lightning, they also suffered severe injuries, and intense pain came from the places where electric currents flowed...
A few of the Bracadan wizard heroes were directly killed by lightning and collapsed with a burnt smell...
This sudden change caught the alliance army off guard, but before they could react, Roy’s ice sculpture on the ground exploded! After Roy escaped from the frozen state, he immediately turned into lightning and appeared in front of Gelu. He stretched out his claws. His left hand grabbed the Sword of Frost in Gelu’s hand, and his right pierced Frostmourne through Gelu’s heart...
Looking down at Gelu’s stunned face, Roy grinned nastily. “Using the Sword of Frost to deal with a frost demon, what are you thinking? But thank you. This sword now carries the name of Osiris!”
