Chapter 144 Betrayal

call!

This intense frenzy of ice flames swept everyone into the sky.

The ice and fire swept across such a large area that the adventurers were suddenly blown away from the battlefield and temporarily lost the ability to fight.

At the same time, Astin discovered that the ice phoenix's eyes were looking towards him.

Astin was shocked and immediately knew that Cliff's first target was to kill him.

He retreated in shock, and the ice phoenix spread its wings and rushed towards him.

"Don't even think about it, Cliff!" The sword in Astin's hand emitted a glorious brilliance.

However, the next moment, the polar ice phoenix spit out a cold blast at Astin, almost freezing him completely.

At the same time, the big bird flew past him, its sharp wings slashed across Astin's body, cutting a long bloody gash in Astin's body.

Astin turned around and slashed away with his sword, but Cliff blocked it with his gun. At the same time, the polar ice phoenix opened its mouth again towards Astin.

boom!

Two streams of icy wind, one white and one red, were like two giant dragons gushing out, engulfing his entire body.

Kill with one blow!

At the same time, various reconnaissance skills and props also fell on the polar ice phoenix.

Polar Ice Phoenix: HP 48000, sonic flying creature, strength 80, claw attack melee damage 140, defense 60, immune to ice and fire elemental damage below 150 priority, weakened by half to ice and fire attacks above 150 priority

Two-thirds damage.

Polar Ice Phoenix Talent 1: Coercion: It has a deterrent effect on all summoned lives of beasts whose level is lower than your own, so that they dare not attack you. The effect on the lives of birds is doubled, allowing them to escape or even surrender. Surrender is temporary.

It exists with the presence of coercion.

Polar Ice Phoenix Talent 2 Inheritance: Adventurers who also have the blood of the Polar Ice Phoenix can obtain the blood of the Ice Phoenix through inheritance. The blood of the Ice Phoenix contains part of the inheritor's knowledge and memory, which is permanently solidified.

Have skills

1 Wind, snow and frost: Create a field of ice and snow, covering a radius of 300 meters centered on itself, not moving with the body, lasting one minute.

All hostile lives within the range are damaged by ice and snow erosion, with a damage rate of 20 points per second.

The speed is reduced by 20%, which can be combined with most deceleration abilities.

There is a 2% chance of causing a freezing effect on an individual target. The freezing time is three seconds. This chance will take effect on all targets individually.

2 Sky Fire: Summon lava boulders to fall from the sky, causing 600 points of impact damage to targets within a 50*50 range, stunning them for one second, and causing a prairie fire within a radius of 300 meters, causing 100 points of fire damage to the target. Each time

Reduces damage by 10 points per second.

3 Flame Aura: Increases the power of fire attacks against all your own targets by 15%, and causes 30 points of fire damage to all attacks, which can be superimposed with most fire enhancement effects.

4 Praise of Ice and Snow: Absorb ice elements to restore one's own life. If used on the naturally released wind, snow, and frost, the duration of the wind, snow, and frost will be shortened.

5 Ice and Fire Combination Attack: Use the power of ice and fire to attack the target at the same time, a large-scale explosive attack, creating a double flow of ice and fire to attack all hostile targets within a distance of 300 meters within a 30-degree angle. The ice flow causes 600 points of freezing damage, and has a certain chance of freezing.

As a result, the fire stream causes 600 points of fire damage. When the target is attacked by double attacks at the same time, an additional 900 points of burst damage will be caused.

6. Rapid spell casting: Swiftness is the characteristic of the Polar Ice Phoenix, which is not only reflected in its extraordinary speed, but also in its extraordinary spell-casting ability. The Polar Ice Phoenix does not use powerful skills as its attack method, but it casts spells quickly.

The ability allows it to continuously use its abilities. When the Polar Ice Phoenix is ​​angry and tries to destroy enemies who dare to challenge its majesty, the Polar Ice Phoenix will activate its ability to cast spells quickly, making the cooldown time of each of its skills

In less than a minute, the continuous attacks of ice and fire will become every enemy's most feared nightmare.

Of course, using fast casting will also cause corresponding damage to the Polar Ice Phoenix itself. During the fast casting period, the Polar Ice Phoenix cannot automatically recover its health, and 10% of the total attack damage caused will be passed on to itself until it reaches its target.

Unbearable.

7 Nirvana: You can be reborn after death, and this ability disappears after rebirth.

Special ability transformation: Due to absorbing part of the energy from the source of the artifact, the Polar Ice Phoenix has acquired special abilities. It can transform into artifact-level equipment used by adventurers, and obtain corresponding abilities according to its form. Its power and duration depend on the god.

Huang's condition at that time.

Although the level of the polar ice phoenix is ​​extremely high and difficult to detect, the adventurers' detection abilities each have their own strengths and they can be used together to make up for what they need, and they can roughly find out the bottom of the polar ice phoenix.

Of course, this may also be related to Cliff's unintentional obstruction.

This polar ice phoenix is ​​obviously a high-speed magic being that mainly attacks enemies through spells.

Its spell features are mainly wide range and strong endurance, but in terms of damage, except for the combination of ice and fire that is worthy of the dignity of a top demon god, its other abilities are relatively average - at least for a top demon god, they are not conspicuous.

The problem is that the abnormally fast casting skills greatly make up for the shortcomings of the extremely low ice phoenix attack. One ice and fire attack per minute. If they fight for their lives, it is hard to say how many dozens of adventurers present will survive.

Already.

As a being cultivated by the Purgatory Sect at all costs, although the Polar Ice Phoenix failed to become a super demon like the Six-Armed Shura King, its status as a top demon still cannot be underestimated.

If Shen Yi hadn't taken in Megatron before him, then Cliff would have been the one to make history - having a demon-level pet.

In just a few months, two demon-level summons have appeared in the bloody city. No one knows whether there will be more such existences in the future.

This shows from one side that things are always developing. With the expansion of cities, later adventurers are also creating miracles one after another, and the latter follow the footsteps of their predecessors and usually stand taller -

-At least in terms of strength, Polar Ice Phoenix is ​​much stronger than Megatron.

Of course, it cannot be ruled out that Cliff borrowed the power of the Purgatory Sect, but knowing how to borrow power is a skill in itself.

Fortunately, Cliff obviously didn't intend to take this opportunity to sweep the entire field.

With the power of instantly killing Astin, he stood majestically on the back of the polar ice phoenix. He gently stroked the long feathers of the ice phoenix and said: "Everyone must have understood it, so we should be able to talk about it next."

Bar?"

Let’s talk?

At that moment, everyone felt a strange feeling in their hearts.

I felt like I was face to face with Shen Yi.

Whenever Shen Yi used this unique tone to say that everyone should sit down and talk, the adventurer would feel that the time had come to be used by Shen Yi. Unexpectedly, this time, Cliff also picked up this tone.

Hua Tianrui snorted: "You don't think you have won, do you?"

Cliff chuckled: "Why can't I think so? This war, after reaching this point, should have an outcome. King Huaying, do you think you have any other means that can make a difference? Just rely on yours. Tianji Diagram? Kunlun Mirror? Or the Xuanyuan Sword that you have never been willing to use?"

Hua Tianrui's expression changed.

Cliff shook his head slightly and said: "It's useless. Under the domain, everyone's strength has been greatly reduced, but the Polar Ice Phoenix is ​​not affected, and Fenglin Huoshan is not affected. They alone can help me establish a victory, not to mention I'm not alone."

"Then why don't you take action? What nonsense are you talking about?" an adventurer shouted.

Cliff continued to shake his head: "Because I don't want to continue fighting. Although the Polar Ice Phoenix is ​​strong, you are not weak. If we continue to fight, even if I can win, I'm afraid I will have to pay a price. The Polar Ice Phoenix is ​​not just a summoning demon god It exists, and more importantly, it is the new bloodline inheritance of our Purgatory Sect in the future, and I must keep it in order for the Purgatory Sect to flourish."

Although a powerful demon pet can allow Cliff to dominate the city, the bloodline that can be passed down is the foundation for the sect to flourish. When the phoenix bloodline of the Purgatory sect is upgraded to the polar ice phoenix bloodline, the strength of the entire sect will also develop accordingly. If it grows stronger, it may even break the balance between the strengths of the four major organizations.

As an ambitious person, individual strength is never the goal he pursues. In any case, Cliff will not like the title of "the last leader of the Purgatory Sect".

In turn, the Purgatory Sect declined in the hands of Edmund and rose in the hands of Cliff. The title "Lord of the Revival of the Purgatory Sect" is Cliff's pursuit.

In this case, fighting becomes meaningless. It is most reasonable to try every means to avoid fighting and keep the Ice Phoenix alive.

"According to what you said, do you want to cease the war?"

"Yes, armistice." Cliff replied seriously: "There is no need for the four major organizations to kill each other. The strong ones should unite instead of killing each other. It's still too late to stop now."

"The problem is that no matter what you say, you are not the leader of the Purgatory Sect."

"If Edmund is dead, then I am."

Hua Tianrui understood: "You want to unite with us, kill Edmund, and help you secure your position as leader?"

Edmund will always be a big problem for Cliff if he doesn't die.

And even with the Polar Ice Phoenix, Cliff did not dare to say that he would win when faced with Edmund, who had mastered the great prophecy technique.

Fortunately, Shen Yi sabotaged Edmund's recovery and prevented him from reaching his peak state. This made it much easier for him to convince everyone to help him, and the price he had to pay was also smaller.

Cliff understands this truth, and Hua Tianrui also realizes the key to the problem - uniting with Cliff and fighting Edmund together is at least better than fighting for life and death with Cliff now, and then being taken advantage of by Edmund.

"That sounds nice, but what about the gambling game?" someone hummed.

"The Purgatory Cult can give up victory." Cliff replied.

Gu Ao took a step forward: "Can the Purgatory Cult afford the loss of a failed gamble?"

"I can't afford it, but I have already made another bet on the failure of the sect... It is my personal bet, and it should be enough to cover the losses." Cliff said with a smile.

Gu Ao was stunned: "You use your personal bet to make up for the sect's losses? Are you crazy?"

"No, he is not crazy." Wen Wen stood up and said: "The failure is Edmund's responsibility, and the compensation is his personal expenditure. It is not an easy task to become the leader of the Purgatory Sect. It requires a certain degree of dedication. , which is the basis for his power."

"The question is where did he get so much money to bet?" Wei Chibai also took a step forward.

"Of course he borrowed it." Wen Wen smiled and said: "This time he rebelled against Edmund and planned to become the leader. If he didn't succeed, he would become Ren. If he wins, the Purgatory Sect will lose. The borrowed chickens will lay eggs, which is enough for him to help teach. Pai pays off the gambling debt. If he loses, he will die, and a dead person does not need to think about the debt."

Everyone was dumbfounded and looked at Cliff together. They didn't expect that this guy had taken everything into account.

Cliff smiled and replied: "I learned from Shen Yi. He taught me a lot."

The fat man was overjoyed: "Can that be used to make up for the energy debt?"

Cliff glared: "Don't even think about it, we'll settle the account later."

The fat man's face immediately dropped, and Hong Lang gave him a shock: "You shouldn't mention this."

"Don't even think about it!" a voice said.

It’s Kim Seung-hee!

She was not dead yet. At this moment, she came over and helped Lin Weisheng stand up.

She glared at Cliff: "You destroyed the source of the artifact, and you still want to join forces with us? What a dream! Also, this time our South District also bet on fourth place, Cliff, you want to make up for the loss by betting on fourth place in the West District, Don’t even think about it. You and your sect are doomed to bet on both ends!”

Cliff raised his eyebrows: "Really... I really didn't expect this."

He didn't know that the Southern District was also betting on fourth place, so when he heard Jin Shengji's words, he was shocked. With his IQ, he immediately understood what was going on. First he broke out in a cold sweat, and then he broke out in a cold sweat. He patted his chest and said, "Phew, it was so dangerous, so dangerous...it almost capsized."

Although the advantage of betting on both ends is that one party's victory can make up for the loss of one party, and there may even be a slight profit, there is also the risk of short betting on both ends.

Cliff originally thought that he was going to take fourth place and no one would compete with him, but unexpectedly, the South District came out.

But it's a good thing it's the South Side, Cliff thought.

He only thought for a moment, then smiled and said: "In that case, I can pay some extra chips for this peace. How about ten thousand points for each person?"

"This is impossible!" Jin Shengji screamed.

The Vientiane Palace and the Purgatory Sect are at odds with each other. They want to bribe everyone with ten thousand chips. This is simply a dream.

However, Cliff replied in a low voice: "Idiot, this money does not include you."

"What did you say?" Jin Shengji was slightly stunned. Only then did she realize that Cliff's eyes were full of sympathy and disdain when he looked at her.

Not only him, but also the eyes of Hua Tianrui, Wen Wen and others were like this.

Jin Shengji still didn't react.

She looked at everyone with strange eyes: "Why are you looking at me like this?"

Lin Weisheng was already coughing up blood and said: "Silly woman, haven't you seen it yet... For the two northeastern districts... it is already a more suitable choice to join forces with the west district. The opposition from the south district will only send us to the end." Dead end!"

"What did you say?" It was as if a thunderbolt hit Jin Shengji's head, making her dizzy.

Due to the nature of the death match in this three-district alliance, it is impossible to sign a formal agreement recognized by the city. Many things can only be verbal agreements, and the basis of trust is character and interests.

In the bloody city, character is a rarer thing than artifacts. As for interests...if interests change, the direction of the wind will naturally change.

After all, Lin Weisheng is more sophisticated than Jin Shengji and can see clearly. Unfortunately, there are some things that he can see clearly, but in the end there is nothing he can do about it.

The fate of the Southern District was determined from the moment the source of the artifact was shattered, and even from the moment the Vientiane Palace decided to abandon the congregation.

Of course these adventurers who temporarily betrayed were not good people, so how could those who sent them to die be good people?

How can you even think of yourself as a good person?

Perhaps because of this awareness, Lin Weisheng was much more calm when faced with all this: "I betrayed my partners who fought alongside me, and now that I have been betrayed, I should deserve this retribution."

"No!" Jin Shengji shouted unconvinced.

She looked at everyone angrily. Wherever she looked, everyone bowed their heads. Only Asura looked at her indifferently, as if he were looking at a dead person. He plotted against him and neither considered nor objected.

There is no problem in joining together, and there is no problem in killing them.

Jin Shengji suddenly looked back and glared at Cliff.

Cliff shrugged: "The Wanxiang Palace has lost the source of the artifact, Zhishan is dead, Takei is dead, Lin Tianwang is dying, Garuda and Swak are beyond reach, and the Broken Blade Team is in the Southern District but not in the Southern District.

District, if I don’t deal with you, will you come to deal with me? If the four major organizations can’t work together, then at least they have to choose the one who is the easiest to bully. It used to be the Purgatory Cult, but now it’s the Vientiane Palace, so what’s so strange about it?

?As for me, although I lost a battle, I filled the shortfall for the sect, reversed the overall strategic situation, no longer became the target of public criticism, and cultivated a new high-level bloodline... Just treat this as what I have given to all the members of the church when I became the leader.

The first gift."

Jin Shengji felt cold all over after hearing this. She looked at Wen Wen Honglang and the others again: "What about you, do you think so too? Watch them kill us all?"

Before Wen Wen could say anything, Cliff had already said quickly: "Team Broken Blade and I have always been allies. The demise of the South District has nothing to do with Team Broken Blade. I don't care if Team Broken Blade stole my energy before, but in the end, we want to continue to be friends.

Whether you are an enemy or not, it depends on now..."

He stretched out a finger: "My first condition: give up support for the Southern District!"

Wen Wen looked at Jin Shengji and then at Cliff. She raised her wrist: "Shen Yi..."

"I heard you, accept Cliff's request."

"But……"

"I said I accept his conditions!" Shen Yi had shouted.

He used yelling to suppress his conscience, and used sophistry to cover up his evil deeds. Taking a deep breath, he said: "Never...never...don't go against the public, even if they are all wrong, do you understand?"

Wen Wen clenched her fists: "I got it."

She looked at Jin Shengji, shook her head slightly, and stepped back.

Jin Shengji understood, and she sat on the ground helplessly.

Then she shouted hysterically: "You beasts! Despicable, shameless, filthy, dirty bastards! You are treacherous and not human beings. Fuck/your whole family..."

The woman began to curse crazily, and all kinds of foul language came out of her mouth for a while, and the people who listened couldn't bear to hear it.

Surprisingly, the adventurers from all districts just listened quietly to her venting their anger, and no one refuted her.

No matter how much conscience is obliterated, the concept of right and wrong will always remain.

Selling out former teammates does not make them feel better. The insults and abnormal behavior from the other party help balance the guilt in their hearts - at least when thinking back to today, they can say to themselves, "What an idiot and stupid woman."

In the end, Asura became a little impatient.

He said: "Have the talks been settled? Let's take action once the talks are settled."

He never feels guilty about anything, whether killing or being killed, and has no fear of death.

The sword suddenly rises!
