BXBX NOVEL Chapter 477: Freeze Everything
Chapter 477: Freeze Everything
"Eh?" Everyone was astonished at the sudden change of scenery.
The vast and calm expanse of the blue ocean under the clear sky just now seemed to be just an illusion.
The scenery instantly changed into a dark ocean with fierce waves and gripping turmoil. The sky was dark, overcast, as if a storm would come anytime soon.
The thick mist shrouded as far as the eye could see, limited visibility not more than five kilometers.
"Dimension leap, or just a sealed zone within the barrier?" Rhea looked around to check. She then threw a wind ball backward, but it just kept going and fell because there was nothing in the way. "Apparently, not. Someone seems to have just used dimension leap to get us here."
*Splash* *Splash* *Splash*
The noises between the waves sounded closer and closer. Everyone immediately turned their heads to the side.
About five kilometers away, there was a little blue creature surfing on his stomach. He accelerated his speed across the water surface, breaking through the thick mist. His current objective was to survive by running away as fast as possible to get help.
Many mysterious and terrifying black creatures chased him from behind as if they were eager to eat him alive. His expression became relieved, bright, and radiant when he could see a carpet floating in mid-air was near.
"It\'s one of the Sea Gods! He\'s in a predicament. The ones chasing him are the underwater version of accursed creatures? Or, maybe not?" Nell exclaimed while pointing at the little blue creature.
Elysia and Elena exchanged glances. They looked back at the creatures like black ink slime that were approaching in droves.
\'It\'s like deja vu. Are those black creatures similar to the slime you exterminated last week, Sister Elena?\' Elysia squinted her eyes. She was ready for a battle if required.
\'I don\'t know, Ely. I don\'t think those monsters are like that annoying slime, but they are the contaminated Sea Gods. We need to prepare for a divine-class battle, Ely. Well, this escalated so quickly.\' Elena swung her hand to set up an additional protective barrier.
\'Mm.\' Elysia just nodded. Her first task and priority were making sure everyone were safe and sound.
However, an idea suddenly crossed Elena\'s mind. She almost forgot about it. \'Oh, it seems, we don\'t need to engage in battle, Ely. It\'s a perfect opportunity for our snow fox girl to shine~\'
"Eh?" Elysia didn\'t immediately understand why Elena said that. As Elena\'s thoughts passed to Her, she just sighed helplessly.
"Wow, prepare yourselves. The battle is about to begin. Sea God\'s rescue operation from those ink monsters? I\'ll be watching from here like a good girl." Sylvia sat back down and relaxed. She didn\'t feel worried or anxious because she was in the presence of three divine beings.
"Yuu-ki~ It\'s your time to shine. Your extreme ice cold ability can be beneficial. Can you freeze those black ink slime creatures?" Elena held the snow fox girl\'s shoulder and whispered with a rhythm.
"Eh? Ah, me?" Yuuki slightly convulsed in surprise. Even so, she looked back and pointed at her face with a clueless expression.
"Yup. That\'s what we said when we took you on this world-saving journey. You\'re going to help us. You have to freeze everything without worrying about anything. Can you do that?" Elena let go of Yuuki\'s shoulders and gave an encouraging smile.
"I..." Yuuki broke in a cold sweat. She understood that her extreme ice-cold ability would be needed, but she wasn\'t mentally ready yet.
The nervous fox girl glanced at Elysia subconsciously. Elysia was looking at her with an expectant gaze.
\'No, I can\'t let her down.\' Yuuki muttered to herself and looked back at the murky water below.
Even though she had convinced herself, she was becoming even more nervous. Elena\'s words just now echoed in her mind about freezing everything without worrying.
Her extreme ice cold ability was strong, but she couldn\'t control it well.
"Fuu... Huff..." Yuuki closed her eyes. She inhaled and exhaled several times.
On the other hand, Elena seemed to know that Yuuki was preparing, but that would probably take some time. Meanwhile, the little blue creature and many ink-black slime creatures were already less than a kilometer away, steadily approaching. It was showtime!
"Do you need a gentle push, Yuuki?" Elena asked softly.
"En." Yuuki nodded meekly. However, she immediately opened her eyes again in confusion. "What do you-"
It was Yuuki\'s unfinished last word before she received a sudden gentle push on her back.
"Eh?" Yuuki became dazed for a moment to realize she was free-falling into the dark, vicious ocean with blackish murky water.
She did nod, but it was on reflex. Who would have thought that the Goddess of Light actually offered a real gentle push and not a parable!
"Aahhh!!!" Yuuki screamed in terror with a pale face. Tears welled up at the corners of her eyes. Fear and shock made her forget that she could fly.
*Splash* *Bloop* *Blup*
Yuuki fell into the ocean helplessly.
Everyone gave Elena surprised looks. Even Elysia didn\'t expect Elena to push Yuuki down.
"What? I\'m just fulfilling the offer she\'s agreed to. Yuuki is a Saint-level snow fox with special innate abilities. Let\'s wait a few seconds. Will she freeze the ocean or scream for help." Elena opened her arms as if she was completely innocent.
"..." No one knew what to reply with. Elena indeed only fulfilled the offer she made to Yuuki, but still...
Even so, all attention was focused on the bubbles below them, the spot where Yuuki had just fallen.
"Yuuki can swim, right?" Elysia muttered, but no one could answer her.
At that moment, a bud of white ice suddenly appeared at the same spot where Yuuki had fallen. It was like a hurricane that continued to spread in all directions to freeze everything. The temperature also dropped rapidly.
"See, like what I said." Elena pointed down. She felt a little excited because the icy storm was also heading toward the swarm of black slime-like creatures.
"Yuuki didn\'t freeze herself down there, did she?" Rhea muttered while looking down. She felt a little sorry for the pitiful fox girl.
"Uhm, Yuuki is fine. She is darting to the surface." Nell breathed a sigh of relief. Now, she also wanted to know if extreme ice could freeze a swarm of contaminated Sea Gods.
"Waah! Wuwuwu... It\'s so dark, and there are so many monsters down there!" Yuuki jumped out of the ice and ran as fast as she could to nowhere.
*Crack* *Swiish* *Bam*
Several giant underwater monsters also jumped to the surface. Unfortunately, that was the end of their pursuit. Those monsters couldn\'t move freely on the surface. Still, the temperature continued to drop to super cold and eventually froze them.
Yuuki didn\'t even dare to look back and became super panicked instantly because something big just came out from behind.
"Waaah! Those gigantic monsters are still chasing me to the surface!? Aaah! Ely, please save me!" Yuuki shouted while trying to protect her head. She continued to run as if her fate depended on her running speed.
"We need to help Yuuki." Elysia looked to Nell for a request.
"Yuuki will be fine for a few more seconds. Let the contaminated Sea Gods freeze completely. That way, we can research them and save the blue Sea God. But, well, he froze too..." Nell smiled wryly upon seeing their rescue target also froze in the blizzard.
*Crackle* *Crackle*
Yuuki continued to freeze the ocean to a radius of four kilometers. It was as if an ice island had just formed.
Nell confirmed and was sure that all contaminated Sea Gods were frozen completely. After that, she asked her magic carpet to chase after the crying girl who kept running somewhere.
"Yuuki!" Elysia called from behind.
"Aaah!" Yuuki drowned in panic and fear. She continued to run as if her focus was solely on running as far as she could. The violent blizzard also made her oblivious to her surroundings.
The moment the magic carpet entered the crying girl\'s view, she cried harder while wiping her tears. Then, she instantly turned into a little snow fox and jumped at Elysia. "Waaah!"
"Hap." Elysia caught the little snow fox with a warm towel. She immediately helped to neutralize the super cold air with magic. "Shoo, shoo... You\'re safe here. No more monsters or anything scary."
"Wuwuwu... Waah..." Yuuki just cried in Elysia\'s arms. Even so, her fear and panic slowly subsided due to the warmth she received.
Rhea and Nell glanced at Elena, but the latter just shrugged her shoulders as if she wasn\'t involved. There was no one to blame after all.
"Wow, is that Yuuki\'s extreme ice innate ability? That\'s really awesome. She can freeze the Sea Gods and the ocean. That\'s how an ice island was created in the middle of the vast ocean." Sylvia just looked down and felt quite amazed.
Meanwhile, Ella, Evelyn, Gio, and the little beasts did not dare to approach even though they felt the little snow fox was so pitiful.
Yuuki\'s extreme ice made them think twice about the consequences. If it weren\'t for the new additional barrier set up by the Goddess of Light, it was clear they would be shivering from the cold or might have already frozen over.
Even so, they were amazed that Elysia could provide help to the source of the extreme cold. The surrounding temperature slowly rose, and the blizzard suddenly ended just like that. However, the ice island below was still shrouded in the extreme cold.
