Chapter 183 The Clash Of The Frozen Cliff
Sina's voice rang out amidst her laughter, "Burn, burn, haha! My little flames! Consume them all!"
The crackling of flames mingled with the howling wind as the small black flames engulfed the monsters. The creatures writhed in agony as the flames ate away at their flesh, creating a macabre spectacle amidst the swirling snow.
Together, Isha, Rin with his golden knights, and Sina with her relentless flames formed a trio of formidable fighters. Their combined powers and distinct abilities brought a diverse range of destruction to the battlefield.
The clash of lightning, the ringing of swords, the crackling of flames, and the laughter of Sina reverberated through the frozen landscape. It was a cacophony of chaos, a symphony of destruction that painted the battlefield in an otherworldly light.
But despite the group's valiant efforts, hours of relentless battle had taken their toll on the defenders. The sheer number of monsters seemed endless, and their combined strength proved too much to overcome. One by one, the members of the group began to falter, their movements growing sluggish and their defenses weakening.
Norman, his bowstring worn and his quiver depleted, unleashed a final barrage of arrows in a desperate attempt to stem the tide. But even his unstoppable arrows couldn't hold back the overwhelming numbers. The monsters pushed forward, their monstrous forms pressing closer, clawing and tearing at the defenders.
Lester and Elisa fought side by side, their swords a blur of swift strikes and parries. But the fatigue had settled into their muscles, and their once-precise movements were now sluggish. With each swing of their swords, they were forced to give ground, step by step, until their backs were against the edge of the cliff.
Isha's lightning crackled through the air, striking down monsters with a vengeance. But her powers were drained, and she struggled to summon enough energy to fend off the encroaching horde. Her attacks grew weaker, and eventually, she found herself surrounded, unable to keep the monsters at bay.
Rin, commanding his golden knights to hold the line, watched as their weapons clashed against the monsters, creating a barrier of steel. But the weight of their enemies' numbers proved insurmountable, and one by one, the golden knights fell, their armor dented and shattered.
Sina's laughter turned to cries of frustration as her flames dwindled. The monsters, undeterred by the black flames, pressed forward, their strength overwhelming her chaotic power. She launched one final desperate attack, but it was not enough to halt their advance.
And as the knights were pushed back, their exhaustion and injuries evident, a sense of despair washed over them. They had fought with all their might, but the overwhelming numbers of the monsters proved too much. They were forced to retreat, step by step.
The sound of snarling monsters and the desperate shouts of the group filled the air, mingling with the howling wind. The once-defiant defenders were now on the verge of defeat, their collective will faltering in the face of the unrelenting horde.
As the battle raged on, Fray found himself alone engulfed by a relentless wave of monsters. Their claws and fangs gnashed at him, their numbers overwhelming. Yet, Fray remained undeterred, his body a weapon fueled by raw power.
With a mighty swing of his ax, Fray initiated the Thundering Cleave. The force behind the blow sent shockwaves rippling through the air, scattering monsters in all directions. Their screeches echoed through the frozen landscape as they collided with one another, momentarily disoriented by the sheer power of Fray's attack.
But the horde quickly regrouped, closing in on Fray with a vengeance. Undeterred, he unleashed the Quaking Uppercut, a thunderous strike that shattered the jaw of an upcoming beast. The ground shook beneath their feet as the monster crashed into its companions, causing chaos amidst their ranks.
Sensing an opportunity amidst the chaos, Fray launched himself into the heart of the enemy formation. With the Avalanche Slam, he lifted an angry monster off its feet, his muscles straining against the weight. As he brought it crashing down, the impact shattered the icy ground, sending shockwaves racing in all directions.
The battle became a whirlwind of violence as Fray engaged in a Cyclone Spin, his ax a blur of deadly arcs. Limbs were severed, and bodies were cleaved in two as his relentless assault carved a path through the horde. Each strike sent blood and gore spraying through the air, staining the pristine snow beneath their feet.
In the midst of his onslaught, Fray's attacks created a spectacle of destruction and chaos. The air was filled with the cacophony of roaring monsters, the clash of metal, and the resounding booms of Fray's powerful strikes. Yet, amidst the chaos, he remained steadfast, a beacon of strength and determination.
But even as Fray fought valiantly, the overwhelming numbers of the enemy began to take their toll. Despite his best efforts, he was gradually pushed back, their relentless advance proving too much to withstand. In a desperate bid to regroup and find a new strategy, Fray urged his companions to retreat.
Just as they started to fall back, a thunderous roar pierced the air. All eyes turned towards the source of the sound, and Fray's heart sank. Amidst the sea of monsters, he glimpsed a colossal figure, a monstrous being much larger than any of the ordinary creatures.
"Retreat! Fall back!" Fray bellowed, his voice filled with urgency and concern. His eyes locked with Elisa's which was now very far away from him, seeking an escape route for the group.
But before they could make their escape, the colossal monster let out a thunderous roar that reverberated through the air. The lesser monsters halted in their tracks, as if responding to the command of their newfound leader. Fray's heart sank as he realized their retreat had been cut off, trapped on all sides by the relentless swarm.
In the midst of the chaos, Lester, finally seeing the perfect opportunity, broke away from the group, ensuring that it went unnoticed by the members of the Parada family who were preoccupied with holding back the relentless horde of monsters. Alongside Magnus, a powerful mage from the Arezo family, Lester maneuvered their way towards the location where Fray valiantly fought against the encroaching monsters.
Fray, locked in combat and attempting to retreat, caught a glimpse of Lester in the distance. His heart sank as he witnessed Lester protecting Magnus from the onslaught of monsters while Magnus closed his eyes, uttering incantations under his breath. Fray's instincts told him that something ominous was about to unfold.
"What are they planning?" Fray muttered to himself, his eyes narrowing with a cold light.
As Magnus completed his spell and opened his eyes, a cloud of thin, nearly invisible smoke materialized amidst the throng of monsters surrounding Fray. It spread rapidly, obscuring their vision in the midst of the raging snowstorm. The in an instant, every monster turned their attention toward Fray.
"This bastard" Fray's voice was low, but still very angry. But the swarm of monsters prevented Fray from activating the runes inscribed on his armor, so now he had no choice but to find a way to escape the situation and then deal with this betrayal.
Desperately fighting against the overwhelming odds, Fray found himself trapped in a relentless assault. Monsters from all sides closed in, their claws and fangs heating his armor. With each passing moment, the weight of their numbers grew unbearable.
Crack!
In the midst of this perilous struggle, a sudden crack echoed through the frozen landscape. The ground beneath Fray gave way, splitting apart and revealing a deep crevasse. The force of the opening chasm dragged him away, sweeping him along with the countless monsters, including the towering behemoth that had set this treacherous trap.
"Fray!" he heard Elisa's voice cry out in shock, but the chasm swallowed his form, separating him from his comrades.
