Water and Fire Twins Magician

It turned out that the ice cave created by the fireball technique that Jacques had been burning while recuperating from his illness almost melted the entire snow hill from the inside!

But the thought of being able to get out so soon actually frightened him.

Because once people outside saw that he had made such an outrageous snow cave, and there were so many traces of melting snow visible to the naked eye in the cave, what other way could he have done it except using fire magic for a long time?

Jacques quickly grabbed some snow from the ground and sealed up the cracks, leaving only a small round hole to observe the movements outside.

If nothing unexpected happened, the second phase of the excavation trial should have started long ago, and everyone should be rushing to dig the frozen soil ice core in the center of the abyss. But looking out from the hole, there was no movement, only a vast expanse of white, which seemed to be because Jacques was a certain distance away from the ice core. But he could still vaguely hear various sounds, such as digging sounds, explosions, and roaring human voices, but the source seemed to be far away.

After observing for a while and making sure that there was no one outside the cave, Jacques bravely dug the small hole into a hole barely big enough for one person to crawl out, and then quietly crawled out.

Finally it sees the light of day again!

The sky was clear and cloudless, the sun was shining brightly, and the white snow all around reflected the sunlight, shining so brightly that it was a bit dazzling.

The sudden strong light affected Jacques's vision. When he got used to it, he immediately turned around and used the accumulated snow to seal the hole he had just climbed out of. But when he was only halfway through sealing it, he heard someone calling his name from behind.

"Jacques! You're finally here!"

It was Faile! She came running over, waving, followed by the Lila brothers and Rob.

Jacques was shocked and quickly increased the speed of blocking.

"What are you doing? Don't you want to see us? What are you doing behind our backs?" Fei'er asked puzzledly.

"Don't come over here!" Jacques shouted, kicking the snow into the hole.

"Why are you so sneaky? What are you hiding?" Fei'er squatted down and looked at the hole that was 90% blocked.

"Ah... yes..." Jacques was so anxious that his face turned red and he couldn't think of an excuse for a moment.

Just as Fei'er was about to reach out and dig away the snow, Gary spoke.

"It's poop," he said seriously.

Half a second later, Fei'er had retreated five meters away.

"You...why...why are you doing it in such an open place? Find a more secluded place!" Fei'er stomped her feet and cursed.

Jacques could only apologize with a red face. Although his image was damaged, he would rather admit that he was burying feces than have his secret exposed.

Of course, no one was interested in seeing Jacques's poop, and they all stayed away from it, so he bravely blocked the entrance of the hole tightly, so that there was almost no trace left from the outside, and then he officially returned to the team.

It turned out that Fei'er and the others had only just passed the first stage in the past few days. Everyone followed the initial strategy and tried to make the most of this month.

"Great! Finally everyone has successfully passed the first stage." Fei'er clapped her hands and said, "To be honest, we were all a little worried about you, Jacques."

"Don't even mention you. Even I thought I was going to die in that snow cave." Rob's face was full of fatigue. "It was really too cold in the snow hill. It exceeded the limit of my body. I just managed to hold on for the last few days."

"But didn't you make a breakthrough because of this?" Fili patted Rob's head. "It's your fault that you usually only care about your image and don't exercise enough. Potential can only be brought into play in desperate situations."

"Jacques, have you made a breakthrough too?" Gary asked.

"Oh? Do I look like I've had a breakthrough?" Jacques asked back.

"Your posture has changed, you're not shrinking anymore," Gary said.

"It seems that Jacques is no longer afraid of the cold." Fei'er smiled, and seemed to take Jacques's breakthrough for granted: "You can use ice magic, right?"

Jacques did not answer. He thought for a moment, then raised his hand and shot out a water ball. As soon as the water ball left his palm, he withdrew his mental power and the water ball disintegrated. Then he quickly re-injected his mental power and the scattered water splashes suddenly froze, looking like ice dust magic.

Once you understand one principle, you will understand all principles. In a flash, Jacques learned the art of ice dust.

"...Isn't this Ice Dust Technique a bit strange?" Fili said, "It seems that the water element only freezes after it is shot out?"

"Jacques' magic has always been strange. I'm no longer surprised by it." Fei'er said.

"Before, when he used that huge water ball technique on us, it turned into a water spiral technique halfway through. Is this a higher level of magic control?" Gary also asked doubtfully.

"Well, don't waste your time on these trivial things," said Fei'er. "Time is running out. We need to get down to business."

Jacques always felt that Fei'er was covering up for herself.
