99: Forbidden ice spell—Ice Age, bloom!
As soon as these words were uttered, Zhao Long City in the air immediately roared, "Zhou Weiguo, which Lieutenant General gave you that order?"
Zhou Weiguo's eyes flashed with fanaticism, as he resisted the urge to look at Lin Ling.
"No comment!" Zhou Weiguo said coldly, showing no respect for Zhao Long City.
"Captain Zhou, then you need to give this old man a reason to arrest people!" Zhao Long City squinted, staring intently at Zhou Weiguo.
"Reason?"
Zhou Weiguo let out a cold snort.
"Bring them up!"
As his voice fell.
Figures suddenly flew in from a distance.
The military uniforms on these people were clearly different from those of ordinary People's Army soldiers.
They were flying on aerial vehicles, and each person had a figure in front of them.
In an instant, more than a hundred people were brought to the Lake Heart Island.
These warriors were all Five-turn Professionals, and several of them had even reached Six-turn.
"War God Hall, are they from the War God Hall?"
"Isn't that the eldest daughter of the Zhou Consortium? I heard she's been missing for half a year, how is she here?"
"That person is Staff Officer Wang's sister, how is she here too?"
Queries arose one after another.
Zhao Long City in the air collapsed directly to the ground; at this moment, he knew the Zhao family was finished, his empire had crumbled.
Rumble...
A huge roar came.
The earth began to tremble, as if a ground dragon was turning over.
Many people were swayed back and forth.
The War God Hall warriors holding the Zhao brothers were also shaken to the ground.
At the same time, huge waves surged in the Black Mountain Bottom Reservoir.
Lv120 Black Mountain Bottom Old Demon (Demon King)
A monster covered in black scales emerged from under the water.
Just its head, exposed above the water, was like a small mountain, and its pair of hideous, terrifying eyes made people tremble with fear.
Below this head were numerous tentacles resembling whiskers.
With the appearance of the BOSS, small monsters, also covered in black scales, appeared on the lake surface one after another.
"Roar..."
A furious roar came from the Black Mountain Bottom Old Demon's mouth.
In an instant, an area of ten kilometers was enveloped in a large amount of gray mist.
A gray icon lit up above every Professional's head.
At this moment, everyone's expressions changed drastically.
[You are covered by a Magic-Forbidden Domain, unable to use mana for 10 minutes.]
"Magic-Forbidden Domain? How can there be a Magic-Forbidden Domain?"
Zhou Weiguo's expression changed drastically; once the Magic-Forbidden Domain appeared, all Professionals were unable to cast skills.
Warriors and Archers could only auto-attack, while Mages and Priests directly became useless.
This was not coming to kill a Demon King; this was delivering takeout to the Demon King.
Panic immediately broke out among the crowd.
Some Archers began to draw their bowstrings, and Professionals with magic scrolls also threw them at the BOSS.
However, the BOSS's HP showed no signs of decreasing.
Lin Ling immediately threw out Heros Eye.
[Black Mountain Bottom Old Demon (Demon King)]
[Quality: Wild Area Hidden Lord Monster]
[Profession: Dual Magic-Martial]
[Level: Lv120]
[HP: 5,200,000]
[Physical Damage: 20,000]
[Magic Damage: 20,000]
[Defense: 20,000]
[Friendly Reminder: Technology weapons cannot cause damage to this BOSS. The BOSS's attributes double every 5 minutes it survives.]
Lin Ling's eyes immediately narrowed.
He used Heros Eye again and quickly his eyes lit up.
The name of a small demon with red horns next to the Demon King was clearly written: [Nannan Cursed by the Demon King].
At this moment, he didn't care about anyone else; his top priority was to rescue Nannan.
His mission absolutely could not fail.
However, just then, the gray mist grew denser, and visibility rapidly decreased.
In a few breaths, visibility dropped to a range of 5 meters.
Standing beyond five meters, one couldn't even tell if the person in front was male or female.
Omniscient View activated, and everyone turned into light dots appearing in Lin Ling's mind.
And at this moment, more than a dozen figures were rapidly approaching him.
"Lin Ling, this is heaven trying to destroy you. With your mana forbidden, let's see how you can survive."
Zhao Sanhu's voice came, but he did not personally step forward.
After escaping from the War God Hall warriors amidst the chaos, he immediately contacted the Zhao family's assassins.
More than a dozen assassins, whose levels were close to Four-turn, rushed directly towards Lin Ling's previous location.
From Zhao Sanhu's perspective, no matter how good Lin Ling's equipment was.
A Mage who couldn't use skills was just a lamb to the slaughter.
And after he and Fourth Master Zhao reunited, they just had to wait for the result; once Lin Ling was killed, his brothers would immediately flee.
"Third Brother, this Lin Ling kid is a bit evil. What if they can't take him down?" Fourth Master Zhao asked.
Zhao Sanhu's eyes flashed with disdain, "Twelve high-damage assassins can't take down a little Mage who just reached Second-turn?"
"What if he uses a Forbidden Spell Scroll?" Fourth Master Zhao was still a little worried.
"Don't worry, Fourth Brother, if he really used a scroll, how many people would die here? Then we wouldn't need to act, he would be dead for sure." Zhao Sanhu had a determined smile on his face.
However, at this moment, the assassin rushing at the very front had already reached Lin Ling.
The dagger in his hand, like a venomous snake striking, went straight for Lin Ling's neck, moving so fast it gave no chance to dodge.
At the same time, another assassin had also arrived, attacking Lin Ling's lower body.
Both their eyes held a ferocious, cold glint, as if they were certain of Lin Ling's demise.
But just as they thrust their daggers, their vision suddenly blurred.
The Wolf Tooth Hammer in Lin Ling's hand twirled, somehow blocking both their daggers simultaneously.
Before they could change their moves, Lin Ling's Wolf Tooth Hammer had already transformed from a cloud into a sweep.
A strong gust of wind assailed their faces.
The 30,000+ physical damage hammer directly sent the two flying; assassins were already squishy, and with just one blow, their health bars were cleared.
Bang, bang, bang...
The sound of blunt objects hitting human tissue continuously echoed.
The sound of tearing skin, the sound of breaking bones, every sound entered the ears.
Chop, sweep, cloud, three fresh moves, conquer the world.
In less than a minute, without the use of skills, all twelve assassins above level 50 were instantly killed.
And at this moment, the two Zhao brothers were completely dumbfounded on the spot.
Lin Ling didn't use a Forbidden Spell Scroll, yet none of the twelve assassins returned.
"Third Brother, what should we do?"
"I've long heard this kid took high-level strength potions. Let's go together, strive for a one-hit kill!"
The two exchanged glances and immediately rushed towards Lin Ling.
As Five-turn assassins, they were like fish in water in this thick fog.
Zhao Sanhu was even close to level 150; as long as he acted before Lin Ling used a Forbidden Spell, he was absolutely confident of a one-hit kill on Lin Ling.
The two attacked simultaneously, instantly reaching Lin Ling's front.
Their daggers thrust out, but could no longer advance an inch.
The diamond armor on Lin Ling's body was like an impenetrable barrier.
"This is..."
At close range, Zhao Sanhu clearly saw the energy bar on Lin Ling's armor.
The value was as high as 10 million.
"Is this a defensive Forbidden Spell??"
However, the next second he saw Lin Ling's lips curl slightly, and a bad premonition instantly surged into his heart.
Zhao Sanhu turned and fled almost without thinking.
Every time this premonition appeared, it meant his life was under some kind of threat.
"Fourth Brother, run! This kid used a defensive Forbidden Spell Scroll, and now he's going to use an offensive Forbidden Spell Scroll!"
Zhao Sanhu roared, and he had already darted far away.
However, just then, a soft shout came from behind.
"Ice Age, bloom!"
At the same time, a song accompanied by heavy snow descended from the sky.
The temperature instantly dropped below freezing.
Trees turned into ice sculptures,
The lake surface turned into ice sculptures,
The lawn turned into ice sculptures.
The Zhao brothers turned into ice sculptures,
The Black Mountain Old Demon also turned into an ice sculpture.
An area of a hundred miles around was completely transformed into a pristine, white world of ice and snow amidst this song.
But on the ice surface of the Black Mountain Bottom Reservoir, at this moment, a demon baby was shivering from the cold.
Its two large round eyes were constantly darting around.
