A Battle We Can't Afford to Drag Out

Ten Blades...

Any one of them, if brought out, would be a powerful monster capable of destroying an entire organized army.

There were now ten!

Given their current situation...

How can we defend against it?

Ch'en Hui-chieh fell silent.

Meanwhile, Talulah shifted her gaze to Patriot.

Talulah still held some respect for this almost legendary warrior.

Despite their differing stances, Black Snake still wanted to bring the other side into its camp.

"You have one more chance, Patriot."

Talulah spoke calmly.

"Perhaps we've had some unpleasant disagreements before, but I don't think we're mortal enemies."

"You were once the straightest spine in the Ursus army... Even now, many still hold you in high esteem. Although I cannot reinstate you to the Ursus army, you can still serve Ursus..."

"... Koschei... you betrayed me and insulted me."

Patriot did not respond to the invitation, but remained silent as he struggled to his feet.

His body remained upright, the bleeding from the penetrating wound in his abdomen gradually stopped, and his scarlet eyes gleamed with sharpness.

But more than anything, it was anger.

He was fooled... once again, fooled by the coincidence of fate.

Anger surged through his mind, reigniting his fighting spirit!

But just as he stood up, his body began to slump uncontrollably.

He's too old... his body is no longer strong enough to sustain him in the fight.

Even if his heart hadn't surrendered, his body had already given the answer.

He was powerless to turn the tide of the battle.

Talulah watched this scene and sighed with regret.

"Since that's the case, then let him sleep forever..."

As she spoke, she raised her arm again.

Beside them, the cold, Blades drew their weapons, poised to strike the grim-faced crowd.

And at that very moment, ice silently surged forth.

The Blades leaped out.

They did not let their guard down in the slightest, even though the soldiers were already exhausted.

Every strike is aimed at the opponent's vital points!

The attack was about to land...

"Bang!"

Ice surged forth instantly, deflecting all the Blades!

A pure, frigid ice suddenly rose from the earth!

At this moment, everyone realized that an unknown chill had enveloped them all!

"I have never seen you so disheveled, Father."

A snow-white rabbit, carrying its own team burning with sparks.

Arrive at the battlefield!

Chapter 209 A Battle That Can't Be Delayed

"I have never seen you so disheveled, Father."

The white rabbit slowly walked to the scene, and looking at the Patriot kneeling in disarray before it, a hint of heartache appeared in its eyes.

But she stood firm at this moment, facing the crowd who were no longer able to fight.

Behind her, the members of the Yeti Squad rushed forward quickly.

This time, there were more than a hundred people, all of whom were the elite warriors of the Yeti Squad.

Everyone noticed the strange aura emanating from the Yeti Squad.

The faint red marks of burning flames flickered on their bodies, and the aura of each person underwent a dramatic change.

This change caused the Black Snake standing nearby to frown slightly.

But after a moment, she felt better.

"FrostNova... are you going to betray me too?"

"... I believe in Talulah, not you, Black Snake, Duke Koschei."

FrostNova's tone was less friendly when facing the being that had taken over her leader's body.

She had known for a long time that there was another soul inside Talulah.

Patriot had mentioned to her more than once how terrible Koschei was.

But she still stubbornly believed in Talulah... believed that Talulah would not be influenced by that evil and filthy will.

But in the end, it was clear that she was completely wrong.

It has even pushed the situation to this point.

"Is that so?"

Seeing that things had come to this point, Black Snake no longer bothered to hide it.

Clearly, both sides have revealed all their cards.

Black Snake's biggest backup plan: two of the three full squads of Blades have already appeared, and the last squad will arrive soon.

Of these allied teams, only the Yeti Squad that had just arrived was still capable of fighting; the rest were mostly injured.

Against Yeti Squad that could only be described as elite troops, her Blades clearly held a greater advantage!

Now that things have come to this, she no longer needs to hide anything.

So what do you plan to do?

"Kill me?"

Black Snake laughed, his words carrying a hint of provocation.

FrostNova, however, simply remained expressionless.

"I will do it..."

Even if this kills Talulah?

"..."

FrostNova did not answer.

Everyone now knows that the person standing in front of them is not Talulah, but Black Snake, but... the words "Kill me" shouted at Patriot just now clearly came from the mouth of Talulah, whom everyone is familiar with.

This made her hesitate for a while after she had made up her mind.

If Talulah had already disappeared, then what stood before them now was at most a stranger with a familiar face.

But... judging from what just happened, Talulah isn't dead yet; she's still alive in this body, suppressed by the Black Snake...

Killing an enemy and killing a friend are two different concepts.

But FrostNova made her decision after only a moment of silence.

"Do it!"

At a single command, all the Yeti Squad sprang into action.

The surging energy rushed towards the Blades like a tidal wave!

The group of over a hundred people assembled in an instant, sparks igniting on their bodies, but what they released was waves of frost!

The Blades were instantly halted.

One ice spike after another relentlessly rained down upon them.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, FrostNova rushed out and stood in front of the Black Snake!

The surging blood caused her body to erupt with a surging power she could never have imagined before.

Ever since drinking the tea containing Maria's blood, FrostNova has been able to feel certain changes occurring in her body.

But in the past, she didn't know what was wrong with her body.

This time, after giving it her all, she finally understood why Patriot insisted that only Maria could save her when she was completely beyond saving due to Oripathy.

Her blood was unblocked, and her body was no longer cold; instead, it became burning hot.

The Originium that had replaced her internal Originium was quickly devoured, and her body regained its flesh and blood.

But her terrifying chill not only didn't lessen, it became even more frightening.

In the blink of an eye, a layer of frost enveloped the two of them!

"Tsk..."

Even the Black Snake would have to retreat several steps after such an attack.

Avoid confrontation for now.

But clearly, no one present was willing to give her that opportunity.

"Sulfone--!"

Braving the cold air, Ch'en Hui-chieh took a step forward.

The Dragon-Slaying Sword Chixiao, was swung out instantly, so fast that it gave the opponent no chance to react.

Talulah is not an easy character to control.

Without turning her head, she turned and tucked the sword behind her back, blocking Ch'en Hui-chieh's attack while also dodging FrostNova's magical sneak attack.

The fierce battle erupted instantly.

Initially, everyone was worried that FrostNova's side might not be able to hold on, but as time went by, they discovered something that surprised them.

The Yeti Squad actually managed to hold off the Blades that they would normally have had to hold off together... Although the battlefield situation was still unfavorable to them, they had indeed managed to restrain the Blades' movements!

Meanwhile, on Talulah's side, with the combined efforts of Amiya, FrostNova, and Chen, Talulah forced into a series of defeats!

This situation was clearly unexpected for them.

But if we're talking about who was the most surprised, it has to be Patriot.

He stared blankly at the Yeti Squad and FrostNova before him, finding it hard to believe that these were the fledglings he had once cared for...

But soon, another person came to mind.

A silent woman, as serene as moonlight.

"Is it her...?"

Patriot remained silent for a moment, then put aside his desire to provide assistance and quietly tended to his own wounds.

Meanwhile, Kal'tsit and the others gradually regained some strength and regrouped their team.

"... That's not enough."

Standing beside Patriot, Kal'tsit bandaged the wound on her arm with a simple strip of cloth while keeping an eye on the battlefield.

Although they appear to be evenly matched, both Kal'tsit and Patriot are veterans who have participated in many wars.

They immediately realized that something was wrong with the situation.

Although it seems like an advantage, the Yeti Squad is actually losing members, and FrostNova and her team won't be able to defeat Talulah anytime soon.
