"That is?"

Blois, who was trying to see if he could make the giant demon sink deeper, suddenly raised his head and glanced up - his original intention was to pay attention to whether Safina was preparing other attack methods, but he did not expect this.

As soon as he took a look, he accidentally saw a touch of blue.

It was a giant ice bird, and in some details, it seemed to have almost the same characteristics as his flame flying dragon.

"...Summoning Technique?"

Just when Blois was surprised by this discovery, Safina, who was casting black flames in an attempt to continue suppressing the demon, suddenly heard a whistling sound coming from behind her from far to near.

At the same time, a loud shout resounded throughout the airspace.

"Miss Geofine, get out of the way!"

Is this voice that strange Muggle girl named Delphi?

Safina paused briefly, but the situation on the battlefield is always changing rapidly. She also knew very well that no matter what she chooses or does at this time, "hesitation" will be the biggest taboo.

Therefore, Safina did not hesitate, and immediately rolled up the black flames all over her body, dodged to one side and flew away from her original position. Then...in the next moment, a dazzling pure white light suddenly passed through her.

From the place where he was just now, he was heading straight towards the giant demon who was half of his body underground.

In fact, the demon's reaction was not slow, and he instinctively made a dodge action immediately. It was just because the white light struck so fast, and because it was stuck in the ground at the moment, its huge body had no way to avoid it.

"Crack-"

Accompanied by a freezing sound that made people feel sour, white ice crystals and frost suddenly spread on its black body, and wherever the white light beam passed by in mid-air, cold air also spread.

snowflake.

"Is it the cooling rule...McLean's?"

Blois looked at the ice bird that had flown out of the alchemy barrier and was hovering in the air... to be precise, it was Delphi who was standing on the back of the ice bird, but his brows were frowning more and more.

It can be seen that Delphi is raising her long staff at this time, and a regular rune appears on the top of the staff. However, compared with the time not long ago, this rune now appears extremely clear.

, and the beam of light released by it is much more dazzling than the last time.

Yes, that dazzling white light has gradually become so bright that it is almost difficult to look directly at it.

The difference between this one and the next is because when Delphi used this staff before, he was just a Muggle with no active magic power. The ability to exert the power of rules relied entirely on the rune pattern carved into the staff by Maka in advance.

Limited use of the natural magic power from the outside world will certainly not allow the rule runes to exert sufficient power.

But now, Delphi's magic power has awakened!

At present, Delphi is using his own magic power to directly drive the cooling rule runes imprinted on the staff by Maka. This is equivalent to Maka, who has already reached the pinnacle of research on cooling rules, borrowing Delphi's magic power.

The magic power of the cooling rule is cast.

In this case, it is no wonder that Blois had the illusion that he saw Maka himself - not everyone can master such power.

"Crack! Bang!"

Suddenly, the struggling sound of the giant demon below sounded again, dragging Blois and Safina, who were also surprised by this scene, back to reality. The two hurriedly looked down again, only to see

The beam of light was still attacking this guy, and the white frost had covered a large area.

In just a few seconds, not only the demon's huge body, but also the surrounding ground, which Blois had turned into a huge trap, was rapidly freezing, making the large area below seem to have turned into a realm of ice and snow.

It must be said that as a first-level rule, the cooling rule light beam released by Delphi has probably reached the limit that the wizard can control. Although the nature and effectiveness are not the same, in terms of attack strength at the physical level, it has even reached the limit.

It clearly exceeded the soul flame that Safina had unleashed with all her strength just now.

Even if Safina still knows very little about the rules of the soul, you must know that even if it is only superficial, it is still a second-level rule!

But it is a pity that the first-level rules are the first-level rules, and they always have their limits. The power of the cooling rules obviously cannot completely freeze the giant demon.

"Click——"

The huge body covered by frost slowly twisted under its huge force, and the thick ice shell on the surface cracked again and again, and was refrozen by the light beam again and again.

Although in this situation, the giant demon could only move slowly and could no longer climb out of the ground. But Delphi's magic power was of course limited, and it was impossible to continue with it like this.

At this time, Safina and Blois had actually realized that they should also help. But, how should they help Delphi?

Just when the two were hesitating, they didn't expect Delphi to make a new move.

"go!"

They only heard her vomit lightly, and the next moment, the two of them saw her suddenly jump up. At the same time, the huge ice bird that was originally under her feet suddenly accelerated, carrying the biting cold wind.

He folded his wings and dived down.

"Everyone, get out of the way!"

Maybe she just remembered that there were two people nearby, so Delphi reminded her. But in fact, it didn’t need her to say that Safina and Blois were both wizards who could sense the fluctuations of magic power to varying degrees. It was already early at this time.

Then he noticed the raging power inside Ice Bird's body.

And just two seconds after the two of them retreated and quickly moved away from the demon, the huge ice bird crashed into the demon covered in frost.

That's right, it was almost the same as the meteor from Bulova's flame dragon not long ago. It hit it hard and exploded loudly.

In an instant, as large swaths of ice mist spread, the extreme low temperature enveloped half of the giant demon's body above the ground. Although it could not reach the ultimate power of the cooling rule light beam, its range of influence was clearly significant.

Many times bigger.

Because the mental power was a little unsustainable, the cooling rune on the front of Delphi's staff dimmed, and the light beam gradually dissipated. However, in the ice mist below, the movement of the demon's struggle finally stopped.

"effective."

Safina was also staring at the white mist. Seeing this situation, she subconsciously said something.

But on the other side, Delphi couldn't help shaking her head.

"It's just temporary. We can't control it with the first-level rules alone."

At this time, Blois also descended from a high altitude and flew not far from her. It could be seen that he seemed to be very concerned about Delphi's power, but it was obviously not the time to talk about this now.

"Then what are you going to do?" He also asked.
