Steel steam and flame

He didn't continue to talk, because of Li's relationship, Hai could understand Cassia's mood at the moment. The original observation of Cassia's changes under this mood and emotion is something that Kai is very interested in now. As for Hai, he knew very well that such a situation would trigger many people to change.

"The joint base was built in advance, and the information is unknown. The ancient trees serve as the best cover, and it is impossible for airships at high altitudes to observe from a distance. When the war actually starts, the operations when arriving at the joint base will have to rely on temporary It’s time to respond appropriately. It’s an unknown thing for us right now.” Hai gave a summary and pursed his lips. There were other things left unsaid in their hearts, which was also an important condition restricting their actions - Ye Jielin in the hands of the enemy was not only an excellent bait, but also an excellent hostage. When the location and status are unclear, the difficulty of relying on aerial firepower to bomb the joint base's defenses in the early stage increases several times.

What Hai is even more worried about is that the enemy will use Ye Jielin to interfere with Cassia's actions, which will seriously reduce Cassia's actual role after the war. However, deep down in his heart, what he hoped for Ye Jielin more was that she would die. Compared with Cassia's successful rescue of Ye Jielin, based on Hai's character and instinct, he was more likely to see what kind of great changes Cassia, who would go crazy under such circumstances, could undergo.

Cassia, who had similar rescue experience, felt a headache. When the overall level and type of enemies changes, the experience in a small country will be completely useless. Not mentioning personal strength, just considering all aspects, the two are at different levels. In addition, the enemy fully values ​​itself and attaches importance to the supplement and collection of information, which is something that enemies in small countries do not have.

The two returned to the winding line of defense where the fortifications were located. Cassia took note of the nearby terrain information and wanted to find a quiet place nearby to continue practicing. When he happened to see a group of team members cutting down ancient trees behind the defense line, he went to help after relaxing.

The main reason is that the cutting efficiency is a bit slow in Cassia's opinion. The closer you get to the center of the forest, the ancient trees will undergo roughly proportional linear changes in height, thickness, and trunk hardness. This place is still a long, long way away from the real central area, but the hardness of the tree trunk is only not much weaker than real steel.

In a few minutes, Cassia cut down dozens of ancient trees as required. Looking at the smooth cuts on the tree trunk and the second-generation holy sword that could no longer feel its weight, Cassia unexpectedly felt a comforting sense of security at this moment. The swordsmanship has not deteriorated at all. It is something engraved in the spirit, just like breathing at this moment, it has become natural. The strength steadily increased, approaching the limit that this body could bear.

Ten minutes later, the felled ancient tree was simply disposed of on the spot and quickly moved away. It became a very important material in the defense fortification, acting as a low-quality bulletproof board. This also happened to free up an artificial open space for Cassia.

Cassia's practice only revolves around two points. One is to attract the surrounding free freezing air throughout the body to speed up the absorption, and then guide them to form a diffusion ring, which can be used as a range attack method and as a means to interfere with the opponent's attack. The second is to concentrate the freezing air into a point and attach it to close attacks, similar to a pneumatic weapon with a red hot state. The difference is that his close attack can spread the freezing air in an instant, freezing through the enemy's body. As long as there is physical contact, the tissue and flesh of the enemy's contact area can be frozen in an instant.

In experiments, they continue to try to guide a large amount of freezing air on the gray and black clouds. Cassia conceived two models. One is to direct the freezing air like lightning to fall directly from the sky over a large area, freezing everything within a range. Even if it cannot, it can still affect the status of the enemy inside it from the outside, causing weakening. The second is more idealistic. It is just like Cassia's experience in the hospital when she was still an ordinary human being - seeing the entire gray-black cloud layer as a medicine bag hanging in the sky, forming a pipeline-like shape through spiritual guidance. Things continue to transport frozen air to themselves, becoming a huge and endless energy reservoir.

The two points of practice are progressing in an orderly manner, but there is not much progress in the experiment. Cassia understood that even if the spiritual phantoms of a dozen giant whales in the second dream left something unknown to her in her spirit, they could help. But that can only be a key. Similar to Sucarius's method, it takes time to practice and develop continuously before it can reach considerable strength.

However, Cassia believes that there may not be no shortcuts. Even if there are some costs, Cassia is willing to accept them.

Kasia spent the entire night practicing behind the defensive line. At nine o'clock in the morning, the wind picked up without any warning. The sky could no longer bear the oppression and ubiquitous heaviness of the dark clouds, causing its height to drop again. After this brief change, it became easier for Cassia to sense the freezing air in the clouds.

Suddenly there was greater confidence. Cassia was thinking in her heart at the same time. If the situation worsened in the future, she might be able to let Cassie carry her into the clouds, directly using herself as a guide, or create a vent to let a large amount of freezing air fall down, and achieve this goal. The first model I am testing is a large-scale freezing attack.

At noon, the wind was whistling and bladed, and the sea of ​​clouds and trees echoed each other, surging together like mirrors.

Cassia had been staying in the artificial open space, holding the photo, and came here around 1:00 p.m. The conversation lasted only a few minutes, and Cassia had nothing to pack, so she left with Hai.

Not long after, there was a deep voice echoing in the air far away from the defense line, and a burst of frost mist rose from below the forest, crossing the canopy like thick steam, and was quickly blown away by the horizontal wind above the forest. Cassie Black, who was equipped with alloy armor, was already in the air. He circled half a circle in the dim sky, then dropped to a height close to the forest and flew slowly towards the distance.

Below, dozens of teams with a total of more than 2,000 people were already ready, and at this moment, they began to march towards the depths of the forest according to the planned route.

After returning to a fortification, Lyle followed him into this relatively spacious simple room.

"Sometimes, you should treat ladies with chivalry." Hai put down his cane and sword, and at the same time turned the few photos from Imperial Manoma upside down on the makeshift tabletop, "You can let people do it regardless of the consequences at the joint base. Mr. Cassia had to go, but they never thought about what if Mr. Cassia broke through his control of emotions, lost his rationality, and became a monster regardless of his own consequences. Is this really good? Will it achieve the goal of the enemy? Did you get the result you wanted?"

"Not good." Lyle looked at the upside-down photo on the table and gave his own evaluation.
