Arknights is too real, right?

"boom!"

The pillar of fire erupted by Ifrit exploded like a nuclear bomb. Xia Feng, who was closest, was directly knocked over by the impact. Hong Dao and others behind him also staggered.

Subsequently, a strong heat wave swept across the entire battlefield. Fortunately, Brother ACE selected anti-high temperature combat uniforms for everyone in advance.

The giant beast that had just appeared was submerged in the flames and could no longer roar. This had nothing to do with its size. Under such a powerful explosion, no Origin Stone beast could survive.

In addition to that giant beast, ordinary Originium beasts within tens of meters of the radius of the fire pillar were also turned into charcoal.

However, the Source Stone beast further away became even more violent due to the high temperature.

"Bah bah."

Xia Feng spit out the dirt in his mouth and immediately ran toward the pillar of fire against the heat wave.

He understands Ifrit's form of power very well. This nuclear bomb-like power may seem terrifying, but it also applies to the principle of all things.

The stronger you are, the more fragile you are.

There is no doubt that he understands Ifrit's strength and weakness, and Rhine Life also knows it, which is why he has never let Ifrit take action.

"Ifrit!"

Xia Feng ran and called in the direction of the gradually dissipating pillar of fire.

The release of this power will definitely put Ifrit into a weak state instantly. Although the Source Stone Beast near her has been reduced to ashes along with the pillar of fire, the danger still exists.

Xia Feng had a hunch that this might be the opportunity that Rhine had been waiting for.

Frost Star also heard the loud noise just now from the communicator, and the urgent voice came from the communicator.

"Xia Feng, Xia Feng, what happened up there?"

Xia Feng replied while running in the direction of Ifrit.

"It's okay, you don't need to worry about us, go find Hemo first."

"good."

Communication was temporarily interrupted, and Xia Feng rushed to the flames against the heat wave.

"Ifrit, can you hear me?"

"ah!"

Ifrit's shout came from the flames, and then a new wave of explosions shot into the sky.

"boom!"

Compared with the giant fire pillar just now, this explosion was much smaller. Xia Feng didn't know what Ifrit was doing, so he must have been confused.

Although the black and white twins were immune to the Balrog's flames to a certain extent, it was only to the extent that they would not be burned to ashes. As for the burning sensation, it was still painful.

"Ifrit, don't explode, it's already dead, come out quickly!"

Because there was no combustible material, the flames extinguished as quickly as they came. As he spoke, the flames centered on Ifrit had gradually dissipated.

The blocking flame disappeared. Whether it was an instruction or an instinct, the source stone beasts in the distance quickly began to swarm towards Ifrit's position.

"Protect Ifrit inside."

Upon seeing this, Hong Dao and others immediately rushed forward. From the defensive counterattack just now to the active attack, they must help share the hatred.

"Big Wolf, Origin Stone!"

"Give."

Hong Dao threw away the tarnished Origin Stone and caught a brand new one thrown by the wolf.

The physical fatigue was forcibly restrained, and everyone knew very well that now was the critical moment.

The air was filled with intense heat, and the sand and gravel on the surface had melted. Ifrit supported the ground with her hands. This time, she did not faint due to the backlash of energy.

"Cough, cough!"

The flames burned the oxygen, making her breathing difficult, but she still remained conscious.

"Hermer. Give me Helmer back."

After the flames passed, the Origin Stone beasts in the distance were gradually approaching. Hong Dao and the others could only block part of them, while more were rushing straight towards this side.

"Wow!"

Xia Feng rushed to Ifrit despite the high temperature and poured the water from the kettle on her waist on her face.

Then, he picked up Ifritchi, who was extremely hot all over.

"It's okay, you."

"I'm going to save. Save Helmer."

"You've run out of power. Don't worry. Frost Star will find Hemo soon. Come on, follow me and leave this area first."

After that, Xia Feng carried the weak Ifrit on his shoulders and killed him out of this "land of purgatory" with the Shenyue Sword.

Ifrit's move was obviously a little impulsive, but it also solved the very difficult giant Originium Beast. Likewise, her disposable nuclear bombs were also used up.

It is certainly a good thing to solve the immediate trouble, but from a strategic perspective, this is not what Xia Feng wants.

It's like a person is surrounded by a group of gangsters. He has a gun in his hand and only one bullet in the gun.

Even if everyone knew that there was only one bullet in his gun and it could only kill one person, no one would rush forward without any scruples. As long as he didn't fire, the gun would have a strategic significance greater than its actual power.

However, if you shoot impulsively and use up all the bullets, even though you kill an enemy, you also lose your chips.

Of course, Ifrit is not Xia Feng's only bargaining chip. He also completely understands this girl's mood. To be honest, she is already very capable of restraining herself until now.

While running, Xia Feng shouted loudly to Ifrit on his shoulder.

"Hey, little ancestor, are you still awake?"

"I'm going to save Helmer"

Ifrit's voice was weak, but it still contained a kind of persistence.

"I will send you back to Turtle's barrier first. When Froststar brings your mother and Hemo out, we will retreat together."

"Hemer, can you really come back to Victoria with us?"

"Of course."

"Well, I miss her very much. I...I want to show her the Christmas tree I planted, Xiao Mo, my barbecue, and"

Xia Feng felt that this girl had started talking nonsense and might have burned out her brain.

"Stop talking, hold on, I'll cool you down later."

Soon, Xia Feng ran out of the explosion range.

Looking at Hong Dao who was helping him stop the Origin Stone Beast, Xia Feng did not stop walking.

"I'll send this girl to the back first and be right back."

"Don't worry, leave this to us first."

Ifrit has completed her mission, but this war has yet to end, and the rest is up to them.

At this moment, suddenly, a pillar of fire like a fire dragon penetrated half of the battlefield. This pillar of fire was extremely fast, like a laser cannon.

"Pass!"

The pillar of fire shot from a distance was pointed directly at Xia Feng, who was running. Because of his speed and the high temperature, he was a little distracted. He didn't notice it until the pillar of fire was about to hit him.

"Brother Feng!"

At the critical moment, the wolf next to him raised his foot and kicked Xia Feng and Ifrit on his shoulder horizontally.

"Ouch!"

Lang Da's kick was so powerful that it almost caused Xia Feng's waist to protrude. The next second, a pillar of fire passed through him, leaving a burning mark on the ground.

Because of this kick, Lang Da himself was unable to dodge and was slightly hit.

Although he was generally uninjured, a large section of his hair was burned off by the fire.

"Wolf Da, are you okay?"

"Damn it, my hair."
