Chapter 294 Outsmarting the Odds
Moments ago, Tyler was startled by the Frost Giant Wolf.
If its healing ability could be used frequently, Tyler would have to change his plan.
Fortunately, he quickly discovered a flaw in the Frost Giant Wolf's words: it claimed to be immortal, but when healing its right eye, it did not heal its injured hind leg.
Thus, Tyler immediately began to use his mind-reading technique, and the Frost Giant Wolf's level 140 was just within the limit of his level 150 mind-reading skill. After successfully reading its mind, Tyler was delighted to find that the Frost Giant Wolf could not heal itself again today. As long as the enemy could not recover its life energy, Tyler's plan could continue.
The upcoming battle would be a test of Tyler's evasion limits.
.
Within the frozen cavern, the Frost Giant Wolf and the young human faced off.
The Frost Giant Wolf recalled its previous battles with agile opponents and gradually devised a strategy to counter the youth's teleportation and precognition abilities.
— (Winter God's Blessing: Ice Crystal Armor.)
The Frost Giant Wolf used the first part of its second-tier skill, freezing the cold air around its body into solid ice, forming a suit of ice crystal armor.
Although this skill reduced its speed and agility, it allowed the wolf to completely ignore the harassment of the shadowy figures and focus all its attention on the human youth.
Next, the Frost Giant Wolf howled, releasing a massive amount of cold air from its body, making the already frozen cavern even colder.
— (Ice Domain: Severe Cold Punishment.)
At the beginning of the battle, the Frost Giant Wolf used its third-tier skill, "Ice Domain," to freeze the cavern, preventing the shadowy figures from escaping and sealing the treasure vault's entrance.
This move was the primary reason it was chosen as the guardian of the treasure vault.
Now, it used the second part of this skill, "Severe Cold Punishment." With this activated, the temperature within the "Ice Domain" would gradually drop to -30°C, causing those without cold resistance to gradually lose their combat abilities.
Furthermore, if the enemy dared to engage in close combat with the Frost Giant Wolf, the cold air surrounding its ice crystal armor would freeze them.
— (Freeze to death in your trembling, human! This is the consequence of angering me!)
The Frost Giant Wolf secretly laughed in its heart, but for the sake of a successful battle, it restrained itself from showing it.
As long as the two continued to fight in this cavern, the Frost Giant Wolf believed that within five minutes, the human youth's evasion ability would be significantly reduced.
Even if the youth had other hidden abilities, the Frost Giant Wolf still had a fourth-tier skill to counter them. It was confident in its victory in this battle!
.
"Human, if you beg for mercy now, I can grant you a swift death," the Frost Giant Wolf said, no longer in a hurry to attack, as time was on its side.
Moreover, it wanted to try and provoke the young human.
In a cold environment, the angrier a person becomes, the faster they lose energy.
Unfortunately, it was no match for the youth in a battle of words.
"Beg for mercy?" The youth chuckled and retorted, "Why don't you beg for mercy first, as an example? Lord Zane, the goblin's watchdog?"
The Frost Giant Wolf gritted its teeth in anger, admitting that it couldn't manipulate the youth's emotions.
However, this wasn't a significant issue. Since it couldn't make the youth angry, the Frost Giant Wolf would instill fear instead.
In the icy world, people often lose their will first, followed by their ability to sustain life.
.
The Frost Giant Wolf surveyed the terrain and unleashed its "Icy Breath" at the youth once more.
To its surprise, the youth didn't employ the same tactic as before, opting for a simple sidestep instead.
The Frost Giant Wolf had hoped to lure the youth closer and freeze him, but the situation didn't unfold as expected. It had no choice but to sweep the battlefield with its "Icy Breath," attempting to corner the youth in the cavern.
Just as the youth had nowhere left to run, the Frost Giant Wolf witnessed him vanish on the spot, only to reappear about twenty meters away. It was confirmed; the human youth could indeed teleport.
The Frost Giant Wolf immediately halted its skill and lunged forward. Based on its combat experience, such effective skills usually couldn't be used consecutively, making this the perfect opportunity to deal a heavy blow to the youth.
Seeing this, the youth drew his black sword and slashed, conjuring a blue flame that transformed into a galloping steed in mid-air, charging straight at the Frost Giant Wolf.
—(What the hell is this?)
Unable to dodge due to its ice crystal armor's encumbrance, the Frost Giant Wolf braced itself for the attack.
Fortunately, the ice crystal armor was thick enough to protect the Frost Giant Wolf from any significant damage.
It regained its composure, noticing that the youth had taken advantage of the situation to create distance, showing no intention of counterattacking.
This struck the Frost Giant Wolf as odd. In the initial battle, the youth had seized every opportunity to attack, employing various means.
But now, the youth was solely focused on evasion, not even taking advantage of the Frost Giant Wolf's obscured vision from the blue flames.
—(Is it my ice crystal armor that has dampened his fighting spirit?)
—(Or is it something else?)
Observing the youth shivering in the frigid cavern, the Frost Giant Wolf was more inclined to believe that he was frightened.
However, its countless battle experiences told the Frost Giant Wolf that something was definitely off with this human.
It felt as if, while waiting for the youth to be frozen and immobilized, the youth was also waiting for something.
At that moment, the Frost Giant Wolf felt a sudden dizziness in its head and weakness in its limbs. It belatedly realized that something was wrong with its body, feeling as if it had sustained severe injuries.
—(What's going on?)
The Frost Giant Wolf hadn't suffered any significant injuries since the battle began, barely losing any blood. How could it feel as if it had been gravely wounded?
—(Could it be... I've been poisoned?!) n-/OVelbIn
The Frost Giant Wolf immediately recalled the battle, during which it had been attacked by the black sword and the twisted dagger, and that blue blaze seemly brought by the black sword.
Among these attacks, the green glow emanating from the dagger was the most suspicious, but the Frost Giant Wolf only realized this too late.
—(Is the poison from the dagger lethal?)
—(How long can I hold on?)
The Frost Giant Wolf regretted using "Frost Protection: Winter God's Blessing" too early. If it had saved it for now, perhaps it could have neutralized the poison.
The battle, which should have been an easy victory, had turned into this predicament due to its overconfidence.
"Despicable creature, you won't get your way!"
The Frost Giant Wolf was now thoroughly enraged. It wanted to seize the opportunity while its condition hadn't worsened too much, to severely injure the youth, force him to hand over the antidote, and then tear him to pieces!
