in the name of the queen.

Chapter 336 Your Water Blocks Your Ice

Its daybreak.

When Sophia stepped into the sea of ​​flowers, a hint of morning light appeared in the east.

There was still snow on the west side of Baishan, but the sky was clear on the east side.

Light and darkness blend together ingeniously on the top of the Rodinia Mountains.

Sophia stopped at the edge of the sea of ​​flowers and cast a gentle gaze at Sylph, who was standing barefoot under the ginkgo tree in the middle of the sea of ​​flowers.

Sylph's appearance was slightly different from the last time we met.

Except for the lack of long pointy ears, she possesses almost all the characteristics of elf royalty.

Compared to the last time we met, she was more elegant, more beautiful, and her temperament was even more extraordinary.

"Long time no see, you are still so beautiful." Sophia said softly. These words were admiration from her heart.

You can find flaws in Sif from any angle, except her feminine charm.

Sophia's eyes glanced at the bare feet exposed under Sif's long skirt, and she looked at her round, jade-like ankles with a thoughtful expression.

"Love makes people beautiful. I thought it was a legend, but it seems to be true." Perhaps dissatisfied with Sophia's gaze, Sif spoke slowly, as if she was chatting with a friend, but the content was somewhat unfriendly.

She is being provocative.

Angelina clenched her fists.

If we must find advantages in Sylph that compare to Her Majesty Sophia, it must be her extraordinary beauty.

However, Queen Sophia is equally beautiful, which is something Sif wins over, but not by much.

What made Sif win was emotion.

She has a lover who loves each other, but Sophia only has an ex-husband who is determined to make her miserable.

Angelina sighed in her heart, His Majesty will definitely be angry and take action. Sif is taking advantage of her now, and she will definitely die a miserable death later.

However, Sophia's reaction was beyond her expectations.

Sophia smiled and nodded, "Yeah, I didn't believe it before, but after seeing your pretty face and your confidence, I believe it now."

Sif was stunned for a moment, and she looked at Sophia with complicated eyes.

She could feel that Sophia was not just being stubborn or pretending, but was expressing her feelings from the bottom of her heart.

Without any hesitation, she lifted the hem of her skirt and knelt down to greet Sophia.

"I'm sorry. I apologize for my disrespect just now."

Seeing Sif apologize, Angelina felt contempt. Are you scared now? If you knew you were scared, why were you so arrogant just now?

Just when Angelina was full of contempt for Sif, Sophia clapped her hands gently and praised Sif.

"You are very good, even beyond my expectations."

Sif's provocation was not without purpose. It was to disturb Sophia's mood and also to try to explore Fia's state of mind.

If Sophia was angry, there was still a hole in her state of mind.

If Sophia pretends to be calm, her vulnerability will be even greater.

However, she chatted with Sif calmly and frankly, as if she was telling someone else's story.

Sif instantly understood that the next person she would face was Sophia, who had no flaws.

The enemy had no flaws, but she was not flustered and even apologized for her rudeness.

Of course she was not afraid of Sophia, but was expressing respect.

Looking at Sophia with a bit of joy on her lips, Sif said calmly, "If you need to rest, I can wait for a while."

Sophia shook her head, her clear voice carrying a hint of solemnity, "No need, if there are no last words, let's get started."

When Sif suggested that they could wait for Sophia to rest, Angelina had a better impression of her. Although this girl had a sharp tongue, she was very graceful and actually gave Sophia time to rest.

Angelina looked at Sophia almost subconsciously.

The moment her eyes moved, she realized she had been fooled.

How could Sif be so kind? Her words were still a test, and even her apology just now was probably a test.

Angelina was furious. She was ashamed of her carelessness and even more furious at Sif's shameless behavior.

The person Sif wanted to deceive was not the battle-hardened Sophia, but herself, the audience.

Her eyes inadvertently betrayed Sophia's true colors.

Sophia had consumed a lot of energy in the battles of these days. Although she recovered her physical strength with the help of the snowstorm, she could not recover from the mental exhaustion.

Mental strength is a mysterious existence that cannot be quantified.

A person who is exhausted will still be in poor condition even if he eats well and sleeps well.

Sophia worked so hard to make herself look impeccable, but was exposed because of her unintentional mistake.

This was the first time that Sif had truly gained the upper hand in a head-on confrontation since she stood opposite Sophia.

Thinking that this was a serious mistake of hers, Angelina wanted to stab herself twice.

Sophia turned back slowly, her eyes softly falling on her face that was twisted with guilt.

"Angelina, you don't have to blame yourself, but you must remember this lesson."

Angelina bit her lip and nodded vigorously.

She lowered her head and felt for the first time that Queen Sophia was not sure to win, or even have the upper hand.

If Sophia was in full condition, if the duel was one-on-one, she believed that Sophia would win without a doubt.

Perhaps she blamed herself for the mistake, or realized that she was still far from reaching the highest stage. Angelina did not become hysterical or angry, but quietly walked aside and stood in the VIP viewing position.

As Sophia and Sif's verbal battle ended, Roland and others appeared in their respective positions.

Roland's hearty voice echoed across the mountaintop.

"Sophia, you are at the pinnacle of combat power in the plane. A one-on-one duel is an insult to your strength, so I challenge you as a five-person team."

Angelina almost got so angry at Roland's words.

Is this still human language?

Normal people would feel ashamed and even embarrassed to speak out when outnumbered at the same level, but this shameless Roland not only proposed it in a high-sounding manner, but also acted so confidently, as if it was the truth of the world.

She was about to go up and taunt Roland, but suddenly she remembered the loss she had just suffered and immediately kept silent.

In terms of debate, no matter how many of them there are, they are still Roland's match.

Going up to argue would only cause trouble for Sophia.

Angelina, who had already done something more tedious than helpful, decided to turn into a little mute and not say a word.

Roland was slightly surprised by her silence.

He even gave Angelina an approving look after making such a shameless declaration.

Compared to Angelina who was captured in Val City, she has indeed grown up now.

Taking advantage of her restlessness to bombard her with words and influence Sophia's state at the same time, this was Roland and Sif's strategy just now.

In fact, Roland had been planning this final battle since the two camps went to war.

He took advantage of the Holy Alliance's urgency to attack and constantly consumed the enemy's strength on the battlefield, causing an imbalance in the power between the two sides.

Although many cities were lost on the battlefield, including the temporary overseas capital Hansa, the Free Alliance always had the upper hand in the exchange ratio between the two sides.

With the destruction of the Nubian Navy and the establishment of a maritime blockade, the seemingly promising situation of the Holy Alliance was actually faced with increasingly long supply lines, sharp domestic conflicts, and constantly depleted human resources.

His plan finally came true.

Sophia had to take action herself to make up for the gap between the two sides on the front battlefield.

He did it.

But the price was the blood of hundreds of thousands of soldiers on the battlefield, the expenditure of funds that almost emptied the national treasury, and the sleeping ice sculpture of Christine.

He paid every price he could, only to have Sophia unable to go up the mountain in full condition.

Faced with Roland's unbridled challenge, Sophia's expression was very calm, and there was even a hint of admiration in her look.

Her voice became a little softer as she asked calmly, "Since the abolition of the Continental Treaty, everything you have done has been for today's decisive battle?"

"No, it started earlier than that. It started when I assisted Sif in deciding to have a life-and-death duel with you."

Roland said frankly.

Now that things have come to this, there is nothing that cannot be acknowledged.

Sophia clapped her hands, nodded with satisfaction, and a beautiful curve appeared at the corner of her lips.

Her smile was like the melting glaciers and the warm winter sun. Even though Roland faced super beauties like Sif and Alina every day, he was deeply touched by the beauty of the melting glaciers.

This is a completely different beauty from Sif.

Just as Roland's heartbeat slightly accelerated, Sophia suddenly said something that stunned him.

"Roland, I need you."

Wait, what is this unfolding?

Sif clenched her spear tightly, her killing intent stern. Who could tolerate poaching someone right in front of her?
Sophia ignored Sif's murderous intent and said softly, "No one in our country can have such a long-term plan, and no one even dares to think so. If you can accept the conditions and serve as prime minister in our country for five years, you and your lover can be saved, and other conditions can be discussed."

When Sophia smiled, Roland was even shaken for a moment.

But the hesitation only lasted for a moment.

Just as Sif wanted to shake Sophia through provocation, this was also her method.

Roland shook his head and raised the Sage's Scepter high. A holy light shield appeared in his empty left hand, protecting his vital parts.

Sophia sighed, put her hand on the hilt of the sword, and closed her eyes.

Sif gave a light shout, tapped the ground with her toes, and her body floated across the sea of ​​flowers like a flash of lightning, with the tip of her gun pointing at Sophia who had her eyes closed.

Now that everything that needs to be said has been said, it’s time to speak with strength.

The person who was happiest when seeing Sif taking action was none other than Angelina.

Just get started.

Although she was a little more worried about Sophia, she still believed that Sophia had a better chance of winning.

If Christine was in a complete state and the Soul Blood Pentagram Formation was complete, Roland might still have a chance of winning, but this is an incomplete formation.

Christine's life and soul cannot be integrated, and can only provide ice attribute power.

Thinking that this ice power came from Sophia, Angelina couldn't help but laugh.

Roland, was this in your calculations?

Angelina glanced around Baishan and saw many familiar and unfamiliar faces.

Those extraordinary people who lived in seclusion, pretended to be dead, retired, and claimed not to participate in the struggle on the continent came to Baishan unknowingly.

What a bunch of hypocritical cowards.

This is what Angelina said about them.

Although Roland was cunning and shameless, he finally chose to face Sophia.

They don't even have the courage to confront Sophia. How can they survive the test of the return day?

Angelina looked up at the sky and saw the companion moon that was becoming more and more prominent even in the daytime.

Referee, open your eyes and see, those who are passively avoiding fighting should be sent off!
As Sophia silently complained about Angelina, she opened her eyes.

She drew her sword.

The moment she opened her eyes and drew her sword, the world seemed to lose its color.

Roland could only see black and white, even the red flowers and the core ginkgo tree scattered throughout the sea of ​​flowers were no exception.

Roland's heart trembled and his breathing stagnated.

He knew it was an illusion.

Only the strong ones in the divine realm can control the laws. Although Sophia is strong, she is not a god after all. She is only a seventh-level extraordinary being.

we are the same!
Roland couldn't believe his eyes. He raised his shield and considered whether to activate the divine protection.

In a split second, he made the correct judgment.

Not enabled.

It’s not that he saw through that this was not a killer move, but that he could only resist.

If Sophia's sword-drawing style could make him use his trump card, there would be no need to fight later. This was just her sword-drawing style, without activating the extreme cold field. This was just a basic attack, so there was no reason for him to use his ultimate move.

He has to hold on, and he can only hold on.

The sword light was like snow, freezing time and space. The snow-white color became the only light in the dark world.

The moment he saw the sword light, Roland's face changed slightly, and he activated the divine protection without hesitation.

The first sword light shattered the holy light shield in Roland's hand.

The second sword light shattered the spear in Sif's hand.

The third sword light cut off the firebird magic summoned by Sif.

The fourth sword light cut Alina's robe sleeves into pieces, causing her to spit out blood.

The countless sword lights that followed were all blocked by the divine protection.

The crisp but unpleasant sound of collision shook the entire valley, making the faces of the extraordinary people who were watching the show look particularly ugly.

Over the years, they have been frightened by Sophia's lethality. Some have fled, some have given in, and some have pretended to be dead, but they are not reconciled.

Some of them practiced asceticism, some walked across the entire southern continent, and some tempered themselves in constant battles.

They all have a dream, to have the power to compete with Sophia on the day of return.

At least you have to rely on your own abilities to save your life.

But Sophia's sword shattered their hopes.

They are making progress, but the gap between them and Sophia is widening.

The one with the ugliest expression was the psychic who looked like an old woman.

She had wanted to kill Sophia when she was still at rank eight, but was defeated by Sophia and almost killed by her.

If she hadn't been bluffing, she would have gone down in history as a disgrace.

It is rare in history for a tier seven to lose to a tier eight, and being directly killed in return is almost impossible.

Back then, she fled in a panic, went overseas, and refined many sinister magic props. She finally returned to Rodinia before the Day of Return, just for revenge.

Sophia's sword-drawing style directly cut off her fantasy of revenge. She even wanted to escape, but a voice sounded in her heart.

"The day of return has arrived. Those who have entered the White Mountains are not allowed to leave."

This sound of the soul rang in the hearts of all the seventh-level transcendents almost simultaneously.

This is the rule from the chosen judge.

Someone looked up in horror and saw Banyue flying towards the ground at an extremely high speed.

If nothing unexpected happens, the companion moon will arrive in a short time.

Some people regretted it, while others were smart enough to choose to leave before the God-chosen Judge arrived.

At least three extraordinary people escaped along the road leading into the mountains.

They looked a little dishevelled, and then they fell down with screams just as they were about to leave Baishan.

It is forbidden to leave Baishan. That's the rule.

Whoever breaks the rules will die.

The referee's power comes from God, the laws controlled by the referee come from the origin of the universe, and what the referee says is everything.

Disobeying the referee's instructions will result in a red card and expulsion.

The other extraordinary people were trembling with fear, but Roland and Sophia just looked at each other coldly.

Sophia was not in a hurry to make a second move.

She narrowed her eyes to hide her surprise.

People always think that she is the embodiment of winter, so she is best at controlling ice, but they don’t know that the secret of winter is destruction and killing.

She had already incorporated winter into her sword moves.

As long as she takes action, it makes no difference whether there is an extreme cold field or not.

In the bitter winter, everything withers.

Drawing her sword was both her opening move and her killing move.

Sophia's personality is arrogant, but her fighting style is not.

Once the fight begins, she will use the most economical way to deal with her opponent.

She took advantage of Roland's blind spot in thinking, thinking that no one would start with a big move and would not immediately activate divine protection.

Her mental and physical energy was greatly depleted and could no longer support her practicing the extreme cold field and swordsmanship at the same time.

So she wants to fight against poor thinking.

People think she is a brainless and reckless person, but this is just prejudice.

However, Roland accurately judged this attack and blocked it.

Roland clearly captured Sophia's astonishment.

Roland didn't breathe a sigh of relief, but he could finally put aside the anxiety in his heart.

Sophia is a human being after all, not a deity. She can get tired and defeated.

Roland's confidence increased, and he summoned the Holy Light Shield again.

Sif took out the spare golden gun, Lisa summoned the fire phoenix again, and Alina didn't bother to pay attention to her chopped sleeves. She took out a huge crystal ball from her chest, her eyes were firm, and she muttered something.

The only one who didn't move was Christine.

She was unconscious and sleeping quietly in the ice sculpture.

The battlefield was so tense that no one noticed that her frozen ice sculpture was slowly melting, and the water that wrapped the saint was also flowing all over the ground.

Sophia was stunned for only a moment, but soon returned to normal.

Since one sword can't kill him, then use a few more swords!
The sword light flashed again, and the originally gloomy world gradually regained its color.

As the sword was slashed down, countless rose petals floated in the sky.

Sif was stunned. This was clearly her sea of ​​flowers, so why was there someone else dancing there?

She is the Queen of Elves, and no one can snatch her away.

Sif inserted the golden spear into the earth and stepped barefoot on the sea of ​​flowers, like a dancing butterfly, spinning and flying in the sea of ​​flowers.

She caught each petal accurately and held it in her palm.

She doesn't like wild flowers outside, not even roses.

This is her sea of ​​flowers. The wild flowers outside will wither unless they become her collections.

The wind blows and the flowers fall.

Countless petals became the embellishment of Sif's palm.

The rose thorns pierced her delicate skin.

She knew that this was not a rose thorn, but another form of sword energy.

The lethality may not be strong, but the penetration power is amazing.

The pain came from her palms and almost made her faint, but she did not retreat at all.

Sif stomped hard, and the sea of ​​flowers began to tremble.

Wherever Sophia stepped, the delicate flowers instantly turned into thorns and vines.

It was like a branch extending from the void, tightly grasping Sophia's legs.

This was the first time Sophia was controlled.

Lisa, who had just summoned the Fire Phoenix, showed an ecstatic expression when she saw this scene and released the Fire Phoenix without hesitation.

This magic can transform the fire element into a phoenix. It takes a long time to charge, but its lethality is extremely strong.

"boom!"

The fire phoenix flew towards Sophia's cheek, and Sophia, whose feet were entangled by vines, had to dodge urgently.

She bent her waist backward 90 degrees to avoid the fatal blow.

Alina is not good at frontal combat. She constantly blesses Roland and others, hiding behind and doing bad things secretly.

The transparent crystal ball in her hand gradually turned black, which was a sign of overdrawn power of destiny.

She tried her best too.

If she loses, she will die, so she naturally won’t care about the backlash of the power of fate.

The only one who didn't take action was Christine.

She lay quietly in the ice sculpture, but the water beneath her feet was getting more and more.

Looking at the deadly attacks coming from all directions, Angelina's hands were shaking with nervousness and her throat was dry, but she was unable to help at all.

She was really worried that Sophia didn't kill Roland instantly, and what followed would be a war of attrition.

Can Sophia, who has already consumed too much, really hold on?

Faced with Roland and others' deadly moves, Sophia was not at all panicked. She opened her red lips slightly, and her voice was as gentle as the whistling cold wind.

"Han Bing, listen to my orders!"

After all, she was still a little too arrogant and was unable to kill Roland and the others with her sword moves.

Since the sword doesn't work, summon ice.

Her eyes turned to Christine, who had turned into an ice sculpture.

The ice she summoned was wrapping around the Holy Maiden of Light.

The ice wall shattered, and Christine, maintaining the posture before "death", broke out of the ice and lay straight in the sea of ​​flowers, her life or death unknown.

Countless ice flew towards Sophia, but the water under Christine's feet did not obey the call and flew away.

That is water, awakening ice.

Blood oozed from the corners of Sophia's lips. She let out a long sigh and showed a relieved expression.

She summoned ice to forcibly break the soul-blood connection, leaving the pentagram formation under Roland's feet incomplete.

She won.

Even though the victory was not so beautiful and we did not smash the damn formation by force, but winning is still winning.

Sophia closed her eyes again.

Before she drew her sword, there was only murderous intent in her voice.

"Roland, I gave you a chance, but you gave up on your own."

"break!"

With a light shout, a dazzling sword light cut through the sky, and almost everyone retreated in embarrassment in the blinding white light.

Except for the Roland Five.

Sif opened her arms and a magic mirror appeared out of thin air, reflecting white light.

Sophia's body shook, and she suddenly opened her eyes. For the first time, confusion appeared in her eyes.

With this sword, even a mountain can be split in half.

With such an indestructible force, why couldn't it kill Roland whose formation had been broken?

She felt powerless and stared at Roland intently. She couldn't help but ask, "Why can't I kill you even if I break the formation? Who are you?"

"It doesn't matter who I am. I can't stop you from breaking the formation, but you didn't break it."

Roland clapped his hands and moved aside.

Sif and Alina also made way.

In an inconspicuous corner of the sea of ​​flowers, where the ice sculptures had just been placed, at the water-attribute center of the Soul and Blood Pentagram Array, the "corpse" lying on the ground slowly stood up and opened its eyes.

A milky white light enveloped her entire body, and the saint's injured face and chest were completely healed, but the holy marks still emitted a dazzling glow.

"Sophia, it is your water element that is preventing you from breaking the formation."

Christine raised her arms, and holy water gushed out from her palms, flowing continuously.

Her face was as holy as an angel's.
