417: The three-colored flames are powerful, and the battle is over!

While the Shrimp Soldiers and Crab Generals were still dazed, and Ixi塔尔 was still holding his eldest son, concerned about his eldest son's injuries, Vasily suddenly shouted.

“Defensive Skill Card!”

Although Vasily reacted quickly, the moment his voice rang out, the attack from the sky had already fallen.

After Erlang Shen left, the sky once again became clear due to the Golden Crow's skill.

The clear sky status can increase the damage of fire-attribute skills.

Just like now.

The Old Lord's Six Ding Divine Fire poured down from the sky, and together with Nezha's Samadhi True Fire, it ignited among the aquatic creatures.

This violent and powerful damage instantly killed the aquatic creatures in the aquatic camp whose strength was below the Fourth Realm.

However, their attacks were not over yet.

Compared to the Old Lord and Nezha's flames, which fell without any specific attack method, the Golden Crow had more tricks up his sleeve.

The Golden Crow transformed completely black, and various fire-attribute skills continuously rained down from the sky.

With the enhancement of Sun True Fire, the Golden Crow's damage could even exceed the combined damage of the Old Lord and Nezha.

Besides the Golden Crow, Jiang Yuan also used various fire-attribute skills.

Although there was no bonus from Sun True Fire, the damage was still very good.

Zhao Gongming, who did not have fire-attribute attack skills, was not idle either; lightning-attribute skills continuously fell from the sky, accurately striking the aquatic creatures who were blocked or dodged the flame attacks.

The human race members were also excited at this moment, and under Qin Boyuan's command, various human race squads also began to unleash their Skill Cards.

Some used fire-attribute Skill Cards, while others used wind-attribute Skill Cards to fan the flames.

The release of various Skill Cards made the wails of the aquatic creatures at the bottom of the sea even more tragic.

This sudden attack was indeed unimaginable for them.

Aquatic creatures are not afraid of fire-attribute attacks.

Besides their inherent resistance to some fire-attribute skills, the places where they live and fight are basically underwater, where fire-attribute skills cause almost no significant damage.

Therefore, compared to fire-attribute attacks, they, the aquatic creatures, actually put more effort into resisting lightning-attribute attacks.

However, what they truly did not expect was that a crack suddenly appeared in the sea, exposing all of them.

Not only that, these three types of flames did not seem to be ordinary flames.

The damage was extremely high, not to mention that their water-attribute defensive skills or offensive skills could not extinguish these flames.

Even Vasily was like this; he could only forcefully extinguish the surrounding flames by relying on his powerful strength.

However, with his individual ability, for such a large-scale, powerful flame, he was helpless.

“Quickly, attack!”

Seeing Ixi塔尔 still holding his eldest son, Vasily angrily shouted at him for not fighting.

“If you don't act now, even if your son is still alive, he will be burned to death by these flames!”

Seeing that Ixi塔尔 had no reaction, Vasily shouted again.

At this, Ixi塔尔 finally raised his head and looked at Vasily.

However, the indifference in his eyes made Vasily's heart tremble involuntarily.

But the next moment, Vasily became angry again.

Anyway, dying here or dying at Ixi塔尔's hands makes no difference; it's just a matter of dying.

If you're so great, then kill me!

If you don't kill me, then act now and extinguish all these surrounding flames.

Ixi塔尔 glared at Vasily, and Vasily no longer had his previous submissiveness.

My own people are almost all dead; what else do you want from me?

Do you want me to watch you, holding your heavily injured son?

“Can holding him make him recover?”

“If you don't act now, your heavily injured son will also die here!”

Vasily's last sentence indeed moved Ixi塔尔.

After glancing at Kasselers in his arms, Ixi塔尔 slowly stood up.

With the appearance of several red quality cards, Ixi塔尔's body was also enveloped by black water currents.

However, before he could unleash these water currents to cover the flames, the seawater suddenly reset, returning to its original position.

The aquatic creatures who were still alive, seeing this scene and feeling their bodies once again covered by seawater, could not help but show excited expressions.

Finally, finally, they finally survived!

However, the next second, they discovered in horror that the three-colored flames showed no signs of extinguishing.

How could flames still burn in seawater?

The aquatic creatures didn't understand, but it didn't stop them from dodging the continuously burning flames.

Ixi塔尔 also acted at this moment; the black water heavily fell onto the three different colored flames, and relying on his own strength, he forcefully extinguished those flames.

However, even so, although the flames were extinguished, the aquatic creatures also suffered heavy losses.

To say that only one in ten survived would be an exaggeration; there were very few aquatic creatures left standing in the entire area.

Only a few dozen Dragon Clan members and some powerful aquatic creatures remained alive.

But even so, their entire faction now numbered no more than three hundred people.

This was even including those individual powerhouses.

But what about the other side?

There were at least over a hundred thousand people on the human race's side!

Don't say that the difference in strength is too great, making it difficult for attacks to cause damage.

That's in a one-on-one situation, where the attack frequency is relatively low.

One against a hundred thousand...

Let alone a hundred thousand, one person against ten thousand—that terrifying attack frequency and number of attacks would eventually kill him.

However, thankfully, because most of the human race were below the Sixth Realm, and because they were an army, they were more skilled in close-quarters combat and attacks.

There weren't many long-range attack Skill Cards.

This also led to the fact that the hundreds of people they had left could still survive, not being overwhelmed by the opponent's large number of attacks the moment the flames were extinguished.

“Retreat!”

Vasily didn't hesitate; after seeing all the crude flames extinguished, he immediately shouted loudly to the remaining aquatic creatures.

Unfortunately, it was already too late; Qin Boyuan had already commanded the human army to approach.

The individual powerhouses of the human race also stepped forward to intercept.

In this situation, the individual powerhouses of the human race alone outnumbered all of the opponent's combined forces.

Without any surprise, what followed was a one-sided slaughter.

Jiang Yuan also breathed a sigh of relief after the sea surface returned to normal.

“This battle should be over here, right?”

“Almost.”

Li Yueying came to Jiang Yuan's side, nodded, and said.

Others didn't observe as carefully as she did.

She saw very clearly that before the sea surface reconnected, there were already very few aquatic creatures left.

If one had looked from the sea surface before, the seabed would have been a dense black mass, all aquatic creatures.

After those three flames, looking at the seabed again, it was just the blackness left by the burning flames.

Most of the aquatic creatures, and even the human race's army, were below the Sixth Realm.

Sixth Realm was a rare sight.

And Jiang Yuan, Nezha, the Golden Crow, and the Old Lord were all at the Shi Shen Late Stage of the Sixth Realm.

Coupled with their terrifying damage, in a situation of the same level, the aquatic creatures simply could not resist.

Let alone the aquatic creatures, many of the Dragon Clan could not withstand the damage caused by the flames they unleashed.

This intensity of attack, this wide-range attack method, was truly a BUG-like existence in war.

However, the reason Jiang Yuan and his team were able to cause such massive casualties this time was also because they had the advantage of timing, terrain, and people.

Timing: Kasselers was severely wounded, preventing Ixi塔尔 from reacting in time to extinguish the flames.

Terrain: The sudden cracking of the sea surface prevented all the aquatic creatures from reacting, causing the flames to fall unimpeded into the aquatic crowd.

People: The human and aquatic races had been fighting for seven or eight hours, and both sides were in a resting period, both being fatigued armies.

If any one of these three points had not been present, the final effect might have been greatly reduced.

But clearly, today's luck was good.

It was time for the human race to win!

“So, does that mean we have nothing to do next?” Nezha asked excitedly.

After all, what was said to Qin Boyuan before was that they would only cooperate for this one battle.

As for breaking into the Grotto-Heaven and guarding its exit, that would require long-term construction, and he would not be involved.

That's why Nezha asked this.

If he had nothing to do next, he would go home and rest early.

“Strictly speaking, there's nothing major.”

Li Yueying smiled: “But you killed so many aquatic creatures, are you sure you don't want to go down and collect your spoils of war?”

“Oh, right, there are spoils of war!”

Nezha nodded excitedly, then plunged into the water.

“Let's go then.”

Seeing Nezha's action, Jiang Yuan also smiled involuntarily.

“Just in time, Shi Ji has also recovered quite a bit; I can have her summon some skeleton soldiers to collect the spoils of war.”

As Jiang Yuan spoke, he took out the [Shi Ji] Card, which had regained its luster.

“Is this ability a special trait? It seems to counter me somewhat.”

Purple light shone, and Shi Ji appeared in the field, looking at Jiang Yuan and asking curiously.

“Indeed.”

Jiang Yuan nodded: “But it’s not without a way to avoid it.”

After Shi Ji appeared, Jiang Yuan also explained to Shi Ji.

When he discussed it with the Old Lord before, he had already learned the counter-method for that special trait of the opponent.

Others were fine, but the main problem was Shi Ji.

The strength of Shi Ji's summoned creatures was indeed not very high, and no matter how many were killed, as long as it could affect Shi Ji himself, the opponent would likely choose to use it.

“Its trait's effect is to destroy your spirit by killing some of your summoned creatures.”

“In this situation, you can completely use the substitute skill in your Necromancy.”

“The Old Lord and I have also discussed it; the reason all the skeleton army died was not because of its trait's effect, but because the trait killed you, which caused all the skeleton soldiers to disappear.”

“That is to say, you can exploit a time difference in the middle, and that way, you can avoid this effect.”

After Jiang Yuan finished speaking, seeing Shi Ji's thoughtful expression, he spoke again.

“Of course, this is just the result of our discussion, the Old Lord and I. It may not necessarily be correct.”

“After all, we don't know the specific effect of the opponent's trait.”

Jiang Yuan spread his hands, while Shi Ji smiled: “That doesn't matter, as long as it doesn't affect you, it's fine.”

“Moreover, this trait of the opponent is clearly aimed at attacking the spirit, and only because the opponent's strength is much greater than mine can it be effective against me. If the opponent were of the same strength as me...”

As Shi Ji spoke, he seemed to be in a very good mood, winking at Jiang Yuan.

Jiang Yuan smiled; he naturally understood Shi Ji's meaning.

Shi Ji's meaning was very simple, and that was Jiang Yuan's strength realm.

【Once your strength realm increases to be the same as the opponent, or even stronger than the opponent, I won't be killed by this kind of attack.】

“Alright, I'll work hard to improve my strength.”

Jiang Yuan smiled and then said.

“Alright, let's go down together.”

As Jiang Yuan spoke, the [Water Aversion Spell] Card was used, and after being enveloped in purple light, he rushed towards the water.

The Old Lord, Zhao Gongming, and Shi Ji followed behind him.

Li Yueying smiled and also went down into the water.

Underwater, the seabed, which had just been scorched by Six Ding Divine Fire, Samadhi True Fire, and Sun True Fire, was now completely dark.

Not only was the seabed completely dark, but this entire area was also very quiet.

Aside from a few human race members left to finish up, everyone else pursued the retreating aquatic army.

Their strategic objectives were different from Jiang Yuan's.

Jiang Yuan's mission was only this one war, while their war objective was to forcibly occupy the Grotto-Heaven.

At the very least, it should be like other Grotto-Heavens, divided into two, with both the human and aquatic races simultaneously occupying the Grotto-Heaven.

It's just unknown what the situation inside that Grotto-Heaven is; if there's land inside, then the human race could even completely occupy the Grotto-Heaven.

“What a pity, many aquatic creatures don't even have bodies left, so we can't loot them.”

Nezha, who had descended first, saw Jiang Yuan and the others, pouted, and said.

“But there are still quite a few Backpack Cards and such, it's just unknown if there's much inside.”

“Basically, nothing.”

As Nezha's voice just fell, a human race middle-aged man next to him spoke.

“After all, they are an army; no matter which race's army, the Backpack Cards they carry basically have nothing in them.”

“What they commonly use are just those few Skill Cards and their equipment cards.”

The middle-aged man spoke, a regretful expression on his face: “The most valuable thing on them might be their bodies, but unfortunately, they've all been burned away now.”

The middle-aged man said, then smiled and looked at Jiang Yuan: “But with your impressive battle achievements, the rewards in these Backpack Cards are not worth mentioning.”

“Even a mosquito's leg is meat.”

Jiang Yuan smiled; as someone who was once poor, although he is wealthy now, he is still relatively frugal.

“Haha, that’s true.”

The middle-aged man smiled: “You can search around; there are also some very good spoils of war from individual Students.”
