Chapter 360, Greylio Vs. Inbel
Snowflakes are falling.
This is a world of ice and snow.
Countless animals and plants are frozen.
Various icicles appeared in the sky and ice floating islands fell downwards.
In this world of ice and snow, three people are fighting.
"Blizzard!" Imber unleashed a blizzard that could trap everything.
"Your move is useful for others, but it is of no use to us Ice Shape Mage." Gray said.
"Ice Demon's——"
"Excited!!"
A terrifying roar of frost penetrated the blizzard directly.
"Ice shape——"
"The wind and snow are blowing and dancing!"
Leo also directly used a magic to blow away the remaining snowstorm.
Gray was right. Many of Yinbel's ice magics were useful to others and had caused a lot of trouble to Gajeel and Kana, but for Gray and Leo, who were best at using ice, they could use them Crack.
certainly--
Correspondingly, Imber can easily break Gray's ice magic.
"You seem to have misunderstood something."
Imber stopped.
Gray and Leo looked at him.
"I never said my magic was-"
"Ice Shaping Magic."
"My name is General Winter, and my magic is-"
"Winter magic!"
"My temperature——"
"Lower than ice!"
"The so-called ice modeling magic is just a subordinate of winter magic!"
Yinbel spread his hands and said, "Let you see it."
"Colder than ice."
"Bingjue Divine Clothes!"
‘唰’
A set of ice armor appeared on Yinbel's body, and his whole person had an extremely arrogant and sacred feeling, as if the Ice God had descended, or -
"I am a natural phenomenon——"
"I am Dongxue!"
‘Kakaka’
Gray and Leo looked at their bodies in shock as they were slowly freezing.
He and Leo are ice shape wizards, and they can actually be frozen!
"Winter is coming——"
"Snowflakes are falling."
"Burial of Ice and Flowers."
It started to snow.
"Don't be touched by snowflakes!" Leo quickly reminded.
"Of course I know," Gray replied.
The two quickly released their magic.
"Ice Demon—Zero Blizzard!"
"Ice shape - blizzard!"
Two blizzards from Gray and Leo wanted to sweep snowflakes into the sky.
"It's useless." Imber shook his head: "Winter is a season, lower temperatures are a phenomenon, snow is a kind of weather..."
"This is not—"
"What humans can resist."
Even if Gray and Leo pierced the sky, but——
The snow is still falling.
They actually felt cold.
"Welcome to—" Imber stretched out his hand, and the ice and snow turned into a spear, and he said, "Winter Snow World."
'boom'
In an instant, he appeared in front of Leo.
"Leo!" Gray exclaimed, wanting to rescue.
Leo would not sit still and wait for death, and quickly wanted to release the magic.
"It's too slow. The speed of freezing will always be slower than the arrival of winter." Imber stabbed Leo with a gun.
And with the speed at which Leo was making ice, it was already too late.
But at this moment, a river directly washed away Leo, and Yinbel's shot naturally missed.
He turned to look at Gray in surprise.
Gray said: "I don't just know the ice element either."
Gray's second magic is water.
"Let's fight natural disasters with natural disasters." Gray said: "Use floods to destroy the world and fight the ice disaster!"
Juvia——
Thank you for teaching me the power of water!
"Big-waterfall!"
'Boom'
The huge water flow forcibly destroyed half of the ice and snow world.
The active water flow, even Imber, cannot freeze the water flow at such a speed.
"In this world of ice and snow, you control all the ice?"
"But how do you control this water?"
Gray transformed into an elegant music conductor. He waved his hands and directed the water dragon to sweep through the ice and snow world.
Leo was assisting.
He was a little reluctant, but there was nothing he could do.
In terms of ice modeling magic alone, he is not inferior to Gray.
But Gray can also use the ice demon-destroying magic, and when the ice demon-destroying magic is restrained, he can also use water magic.
At this time, Leo could only cooperate like Gray and Juvia, one using water and the other using ice - but Yinbel was not afraid of ice.
"I must be able to do something!" Leo's eyes were fierce. Just watching his junior brother show off his power while he can't do anything is not something he can accept!
"You did cause me trouble." Yinbel shook his head and said, "But -"
"How much water can you make?"
"And my winter snow world can also lower the temperature!"
"Sooner or later, all your water will be frozen!"
The temperature continues to drop.
From the outside, it looks completely white.
The slightest bit of warmth from the sun was even frozen in the ice.
The current temperature can completely freeze the flame in an instant!
‘Kakaka’
The water flow controlled by Gray made an unpleasant sound of teeth grinding. This was because while the water was freezing, it was forcibly controlled by Gray, thus making the sound of ice crystals rubbing against each other.
"Leo, help me!" Gray shouted: "Remember how we caught rabbits when we were kids?!"
"Of course!" Leo nodded.
"Is there any more conspiracy?" Yin Beier became alert.
"Contribute all my magic power!" Gray roared.
Give me power, Juvia!
"Super·water flow typhoon!!!"
The torrent of water and ice was turned by Gray and turned into a terrifying typhoon of ice water.
The front of the typhoon was extremely sharp, breaking through all obstacles and heading straight towards Imber.
"Stop it!"
Inbell also burst out with magic power.
‘Kakaka’
The typhoon's rotational speed gradually decreased and its speed became slower and slower.
Of course——it’s getting closer and closer to Imber.
Yinbel did not dodge, unlike the Desert King Agil - even though he was able to teleport himself to any corner of the winter snow world, his arrogance made him decide to take the blow forcefully!
"Stop!!!"
"Destroy him!!!"
In the last distance, both Imber and Gray roared at the wave.
‘Kakaka’
at last--
The typhoon finally stopped, less than one meter in front of Imber, and the water flow was completely frozen.
"I--"
"Won."
Yin Beier's face didn't even have time to show joy.
"Have you forgotten me?"
Suddenly, the ice typhoon shattered and Leo rushed out.
"What? You obviously-"
"I'm frozen."
Yinbel was shocked, because he had obviously frozen everything, but how could Leo come out of the typhoon.
wrong!
What is in the opponent's hands is——
Blood? !
"Let me try your trick too, Gray——"
Leo generated ice blades composed of blood and ice on his elbows and wrists, just like the ones Gray had used several times.
"Blood Blade·Seven Continuous Dances!"
'Bang'
Yin Bell was knocked away.
"Is it over?"
Leo was about to breathe a sigh of relief when he suddenly felt something bad and instinctively turned sideways.
‘Pfft——’
It was this sideways movement that saved his life, and a spear pierced his shoulder.
"Damn it!"
Leo quickly retreated, while Gray released magic cover.
However - Yinbel had no intention of pursuing the victory.
He stood up unharmed.
"I have to say——"
"You can force me to do this - as ice shape wizards, you can be called the second or third most powerful in this world."
Yinbel said calmly: "I have fought with many ice magicians. To me, they are like -"
"Like ants."
"Don't get me wrong-"
Imber smiled: "I mean - you are bigger ants."
"Ice Slavery."
"Get out of the way!"
Gray pushed Leo, but when he came to his senses, he had an ice collar on his neck.
'What's this? ’ Gray tried to take it off, but he felt that he was gradually unable to think.
His movements became slower and slower until they came to a complete standstill.
"What's going on with this magic?" Leo looked at Imber.
"Why - I am also an ice magician, I am one of the twelve shields, and you are just ordinary, ordinary magicians?" Yinbel asked.
Before Leo could speak, he answered himself: "Because of the rules."
"Ice shape——"
"Ice destroys evil——"
"Your magic is all about shaping ice."
"It's all the power of appearance."
Yinbel raised his hand and said: "But I am different. I am - ice created by rules."
"It's like I've been telling you: you are ice and I am winter."
"Winter is not only ice, but also snow, the sun that has been robbed of its heat, and the temperature that people have lost. Everything about these--that is what constitutes winter."
"My ice—"
"It's ice that can freeze everything—even thoughts!"
"Maybe you are right." Leo said, "But - I have a reason to fight."
"What's that reason?" Yinbel asked curiously.
"Take my brother and come home safely!"
Leo crushed the ice spear inserted into his body, froze the wound, and then rushed towards Imber.
During this period, he kept moving, trying to avoid Yinbel's move - the attack of Ice Slavery.
"I really thought——"
"Are you the only ones who know how to fight in close combat?"
When Bell saw this, he gave up long-range combat and waited for Leo to rush in before taking action.
"Ice shape——"
"Shield!"
"Ice shape——"
"Mace!"
Leo held a shield in one hand and a mace in the other, approaching Imber.
Yinbel also took out an ice spear and shield.
'Bang'
The two ice magicians actually started fighting hand to hand.
but--
This isn't just physical combat.
To be precise, they were engaging in high-frequency battles at an extremely close distance, using ice magic and combining combat skills.
In a circle of less than three meters, the two continued to create ice creations and used them to fight to the death.
The two of them were fighting at a speed that ordinary people couldn't even see clearly.
This is a trick that Leo knows, but Gray doesn't.
This was originally a trump card that Leo had practiced for a long time to use against Gray next time and defeat him by surprise.
It was used here at this time, but it didn't take advantage of it.
Because Yin Beier can actually do this!
"It really surprises me that you can practice such a method. As far as I know, you are the first one," said Inber.
He decided to practice this move because he had seen too many strong men in Twelve Shields who had ridiculous close combat, so as not to be killed like that idiot Ajier when he got close.
For example, Ogast, Erin, Serena, Assassin, etc. are all very good in both melee and long-range combat.
In comparison - Argyle, Bradman, Neinhardt, Val, etc., once someone gets close to them, it is difficult for them to come back at the same level.
Because Bell is extremely rational, although he is proud, he is not as high-minded as Agil, so he has practiced cultivation.
He didn't expect that there would be an ice magician with the same worrying thoughts as him.
After all, ordinary ice magicians rarely attack their opponents within three meters - even Gray will only create weapons when he is sure, and rush to close range to harvest the enemy.
Leo did not answer Imber's words.
He was thinking of ways to break the situation.
Because Bell can even do this move, Leo himself no longer has the conditions to defeat the opponent.
He cannot perform miracles.
He has always known this, and he also knows that his junior brother can do it!
Gray——
Must win!
Leo gritted his teeth and deliberately moved half a beat slower.
Yinbel immediately seized the opportunity and took action against Leo.
"Gray!!!"
Leo roared, and at this moment, he completely gave up his defense and turned to use the ice spike to stab Gray's neck.
"What?"
Yinbel was shocked.
The moment the ice collar was placed around Leo's neck, the ice spikes also shattered the collar around Gray's neck.
When Imber wanted to check, he found that the angle Leo was standing at was so suitable that it completely blocked his view of Gray!
Fell into a trap!
Yinbel reacted.
"I really can't figure out how to beat winter with ice, or beat winter with water."
"But--"
"There's a guy-"
"That guy is definitely the nemesis of ice and winter!"
When Leo's body fell to the side, Imber's eyes reflected two blazing fires.
Gray's fist was covered with flames!
This was the flame intended for Natsu, but it was sealed by Gray with the Demon-Destroying Technique. He originally planned to use the flame to replenish Natsu's final strength when he was tired, but to his surprise, he actually used it himself.
The flames burned Gray's arms, causing him tremendous pain. The flames that Natsu didn't care about were able to burn Gray. Fortunately, the short distance did not require him to endure it for too long.
'boom'
The flaming fist severely knocked down Imber.
Then Gray hit a combo.
Snow.
Stopped.
"Have you killed it?" The collar around Leo's neck disappeared. According to normal circumstances, it should be.
‘Click’
Gray and Leo frowned, their legs were frozen.
"What a pity, you always surprise me, but -"
"The difference in power is absolute."
Imber got up from the ground. His nose was bleeding and blood was flowing from his mouth.
He was embarrassed.
but--
He is not defeated!
