yer’s Heart fought through them with blindingly fast speed! Qin Ruo’s support was perfect—not only was he able to perceive that the Twelve Zodiacs members had to protect their Radiant Priest and Mu was unable to take the initiative, but he was also able to predict that the presence of both Field Commanders Saga and Camus on the battlefield would make their party overconfident.
Because of these two reasons, yer’s Heart was able to bypass Camus in one shot when Qin Ruo had intercepted Camus’ path in that split second, instantly reaching their rear position!
“You will die by my hands!” Saga roared.
Quickly calming himself from the shock that Camus was intercepted by Qin Ruo, Saga focused his full attention toward yer’s Heart who was charging towards them and readying himself for battle!
From Saga’s point of view, the reason he lost against them in their previous battle was due to their carelessness for not taking their enemy seriously and unaware of yer’s Heart’s Magic Pration. Because of his teammates’ death, he was too anxious and could not react with a clear mind. yer’s Heart took advantage of this, rendering him unable to hold his own ground against him.
However, this time...
<i>Hmph! I won’t let the same thing happen again!</i>
His party besides him—the Bandit, Berserker and two Bowmasters quickly assumed their battle position and surrounded yer’s Heart from each side...
Each person on the battlefield was a Twelve Zodiacs elite, putting tremendous pressure upon yer’s Heart.
yer’s Heart, however, was unfazed as he continued to charge toward the uneasy Radiant Priest who was still in the process of casting his Resurrection, fully ignoring Saga and the rest of them!
Just as yer’s Heart was about to sh against Saga’s de and be trapped in by the other Twelve Zodiacs members encirclement, a sudden explosion erupted from his back—Frostburst !
Qin Ruo did not disappoint yer’s Heart expectations! At the final and crucial moment, he cast Frostburst! The raging snowstorm instantly rushed through yer’s Heart and enveloped everyone.
Although right at the moment he cast Frostburst, Qin Ruo was forced to deactivate Aquamorph, but raging snowstorm instantly engulfed Camus, Saga and the rest of them... Together with yer’s Heart, they were covered in the whirling snow.
“Nice job!”
yer’s Heart eximed as he took advantage of the chaos caused by Frostburst and begin to quicken his pace!
Within that short moment of chaos, several of the Elementalists which had prepared their Magic Scrolls had lost their chance to lock on their target, began to shriek as they retreated from the range of Frostburst’s effect. They would never forget that was how yer’s Heart took out all of them yesterday. While recalling his Magic Pration effect, all of them felt danger!
Saga and the rest of them were momentarily stunned as they lost the chance to urately target the enemy. Although Saga hadunched his attack at the path that yer’s Heart was charging toward, there was no system notification of his attack’snding which he expected.
<i>My attacks missed!</i>
<i>How is that possible?!</i>
Saga began to tremble, the attack he justunched should have sealed both his exits, and no matter which path he took he should have been damaged. If his attacks hadnded, he was 80% sure that he could use hisbos to ensnare him.
However he had no clue—his attacks which he was certain tond had actually missed. How could he have dodged it, unless he stopped moving?!
***
Nobody knew what happened in the snowstorm. But at the next moment, the first victim of the Twelve Zodiacs appeared. Crimson hammer trails could be seen from within the snowstorm filled with intensity and ferocity!
Mu!
At that moment, all of the Twelve Zodiacs members heard a familiar voice which shocked and angered them...
“F*ck!”
Mu had been resurrected by the Radiant Priest the moment Frostburst appeared. Next, he was engulfed by Frostburst and then he had to face the multiple hammer swings from yer’s Heart—Blood Drain Barrage!
Although Mu was not able to react in time, even if he did, he was not able to put any resistance since he was just resurrected. Would an Elementalist without the protection of his Barrier sessfully approached by a champion-tier Berserker have a different oue?
Mu died again!
Next, Blood Drain Barrage continued to take out Twelve Zodiacs’ Radiant Priest, Bowmaster, and Bandit who were frozen by Frostburst’s effect. Normally, Qin Ruo and yer’s Heartbo was not sufficient to take them all out, but Qin Ruo had used an Intelligence Potion and Dark Frost Potion—his magic attack was nowparable to top-tier Elementalists as his freezing effect was absurdly high. An average Frostburst had instantly affected everyone without a barrier within its range, causing considerable HP loss. If they were too slow, it was impossible to get out of yer’s Heart attack range.
***
Mu’s death alerted Camus who had been stopped momentarily outside of the blizzard. At that moment, Camus realized what just happened.
<i>Damn it! Their objective from the beginning was to stop them from resurrecting Mu.</i>
“F*ck!”
Realizing that Mu had just died again, Camus began to lose his cool as another Dark Gold Equipment would have dropped. Burning rage could be seen from his bloodshot eyes! With a roar he dove into the blizzard, followed the crimson hammer’s trail, and charged without hesitation!
No matter the cost he had to secure Mu’s second equipment that dropped. Otherwise even if resurrected, Mu’s strength would be considerably diminished. Not to mention the rarity of Gold Equipments, getting one of it was already difficult—losing two of them at once would have been a such a great loss that would take a long time to recover from.
At that moment, Camus had to dismiss Qin Ruo who exposed himself and rush toward Mu’s equipment which had not been noticed by yer’s Heart.
yer’s Heart who was within the snowstorm had to eliminate thest Twelve Zodiacs member and deal with Saga who had approached him. He did not have the leisure to bother about the equipment that Mu and the others had dropped.
Although he was busy, Qin Ruo, on the other hand, was not.
With the help of Elemental Perception, Qin Ruo was the only one on the battlefield with a clear grasp of the situation in the snowstorm. After locating Mu who was just resurrected but instantly pummeled to a corner by Frostburst and Pazuzu’s Warhammer, he noticed a pair of Dark Gold Boots had dropped. His eye held a glint as he began to assess the situation!
<i>Dark Gold Equipment...</i>
<i>That’s a rare item!</i>
A Dark Gold Equipment from an elite n’s Field Commander could possibly be worth more than all the equipment he is currently equipped with except for his Frostsoul Magic Ne!
Once Qin Ruo made his decision, he quickly messaged Gold Digger Babe, informing her the exact coordinates of that equipment. Right at this moment, he was unable to approach it as yer’s Heart was battling Saga at the moment with no clear sight of victory. Now that Camus had joined the fray, they were in a risky situation. Even if he had used Aquamorph, he would be seen easily if he entered the battlefield without the protection of a Barrier.
He could not take the risk.
Gold Digger Babe on the other hand would be suitable for the job since both Bowmasters had been taken out by yer’s Heart, nobody could detect her. Moreover, all the attention of the Twelve Zodiacs members were focused on Qin Ruo and yer’s Heart. With Gold Digger Babe’s movement speed, getting that equipment before they could would be piece of cake.

*Bam!*
Once the snowstorm settled, everyone on the field noticed the scene of a crimson and dark shadow splitting apart.
*Boom!*
An arrow-shaped lightning instantly chased the moment the crimson shadow retreated as it descended from the sky!
yer’s Heart was fully aware. Right before the spell hadnded he roared, bent his shoulders, and pressing his feet off the ground with his full force which instantly offset the recoil from Saga’s sword attacks. He ferociously and swiftly moved in the opposite direction, unexpectedly chasing Saga who had been knockbacked and healed.
“Die!”
With a loud roar, Camus dashed over to one of the Twelve Zodiacs member’s corpse. Like a steel fortress, he swung his two-meter-long unique weapon. The end which was shaped like a halberd gave a sharp cry. With lightning speed, a silver sh wasunched in the air—targeting yer’s Heart which was charging toward Saga.
*Boom!!!*
yer’s Heart furrowed his brows as he turned to block it with Pazuzu’s Warhammer...
As their weapons shed, a loud and sharp metal screeching sound reverberated in the air. yer’s Heart was knockbacked, but Camus was unfazed as he leaped forward chasing after yer’s Heart.
*Screech!*
A clear eagle’s cry was heard!
The majestic snow eagle swooshed down with an icy frost that could not be ignored, instantly grabbing on Camus sturdy armor. Even though blood was not shed, its immense force and freezing effect prevented Camus from chasing, helping yer’s Heart to escape from his predicament and forcefully froze Camus for two seconds...
The battle has finally reached its climax!
“Hahaha! Nice job!”
yer’s Heartughed as he ignored Camus and turned to continue his battle with Saga who had lunged his swords toward him. With Qin Ruo’s support restraining the attacks of the other three Elementalists, he was confident that he could finish Saga off quickly without any distractions!
Qin Ruo on the other hand was greatly stressed—they were certainly elites of Twelve Zodiacs as just three Elementalists were enough to keep his hands full, not forgetting the Berserker. If it was not for his timely Snow Eagle Dive, yer’s Heart would have been in danger.
However, things were looking much better now. With Camus temporarily out of the equation, yer’s Heart should be out of any danger. On the other side, as Qin Ruo quickly scanned through the mist of the battlefield looking toward the glittering equipment with a dark gold shine under the protection of several Twelve Zodiacs members, his heart began to pound in excitement.
