And at that moment, he suddenly let out a muffled groan.

At that instant, he felt his connection with the Ice Golem sever, and he hurriedly turned around to see a spark flying from the Magic Guided Reactor—this was a sign of mana backlash, his spell had been forcefully broken.

Yin Shi quickly opened the pressure release valve to prevent the reverse magic power from burning the Ether Guidance on the magic device, and at the same time, he warned everyone: "Be careful, my Ice Golem can no longer withstand the opponent's Construct, it may enter the fray at any moment."

But before he could finish his words, he felt the ground shake heavily.

The opponent's target was him, and a chill ran through Yin Shi's heart. How, in this blinding snowstorm, did the enemy pinpoint his location so accurately?

But he didn't have time to ponder, as a tall figure emerged from the snowy fog ahead, wielding a giant lance thrusting towards him. As a Magic Guided Conductor, Yin Shi had no evasion ability; he hadn't even reacted before he was pierced clean through.

However, his teleportation robe saved his life. This costly magic device activated a spell at the last moment, teleporting him several yards away, where he crashed heavily onto the ground.

The teleportation robe left behind a phantom at the original spot, letting the Orphen Twins Stars' lance pierce right through the illusion.

Nevertheless, Yin Shi crawled up from the ground, unable to suppress a cough of blood. He unclasped the buckle of the Magic Guided Reactor with a 'click' and threw it into the snow. After such an attack, the reactor was beyond repair.

He lifted his head, watching the massive Construct stride straight for him, seemingly able to see through the snowstorm, and couldn't help but shout into the communication channel: "Blood Wings, help me!"

"I'm on it—!"

The Water-Air Elementalist raised his right hand, about to summon the Crystal, when suddenly he saw a flash of blue ahead, and an icicle shot in this direction. Startled, he quickly dodged to the side, causing the spell in his hand to fail.

The opponent also has an Elementalist.

Blood Wings realized, but the spell also exposed the opponent's location, so he could no longer concern himself with Yin Shi's situation and raised his hand again, this time not preparing a two-circle spell.

But a one-circle spell.

In the absence of cover, combat between Elementalists essentially involves only one type of contest.

That is, who has the greater calculative power and faster casting speed.

After all, no one would foolishly give the opponent time to prepare advanced spells, so in such situations, swifter, low-level spells are the best option.

But this doesn't mean that low-level and high-level Elementalists are on the same footing, as those who have mastered high-circle Elemental Spells also have an advantage in mastering low-level ones.

And as the main Elementalist of this team, Blood Wings realized at first glance from the previous spell that the opponent's Elementalist level was far inferior to his own. Dealing with such a rookie quickly and then addressing Yin Shi's problem was naturally the best choice.

He was extremely confident in his calculative power and casting speed; aside from the guild's monstrous creatures, even among the Elite Corps, he was one of the best.

What he didn't expect, however, was that just as he summoned the Void Crystal, the same scene occurred again, with a flash of blue light ahead and another icicle shooting in this direction.

"I..."

Blood Wings swallowed a curse, raised his Elemental Staff to summon a shield, barely blocking the spell. But how did it feel to be outpaced in spellcasting speed by a newcomer?

And how exactly did the opponent find him so accurately in the snowstorm?

Blood Wings's mind was in chaos, as not even the guild's monstrous talents cast this quickly; was the opponent using a cheat? But as he faltered, he got the answer to a previous question from the communication channel—

Because he heard Yin Shi's cry of anguish.

"It's the Clockwork Fairy..."

Yin Shi shouted in the communication channel: "The opponent is using Clockwork Fairies to spy on us..."

The Magic Guided Conductor's voice was full of panic and disbelief: "More than one, many... They definitely have more than one Combat Artisan..."

After a pained groan, his voice abruptly ceased, and the next moment, Blood Wings saw his ID go dark in the communication channel.

The Elementalist couldn't help but raise his head in bewilderment, looking at the endless snow and wind ahead, as another blue light shot forth, with the icicle shattering against his shield. Yet he had a moment of distraction—

The fourth fallen teammate.

Since their team was formed, though not internally harmonious, they had never suffered such catastrophic losses.

Was the enemy truly a Free Adventure Group?

At this moment, outside the snowstorm, the Uncrowned Crown lying on the ground opened his mouth just as much. He was watching the tall young man in the Elementalist attire beside him, who seemed to conjure Elemental Crystals out of thin air.

Then the youth raised his hand, shooting beams of blue light into the snowstorm ahead.

At the same moment, a voice from the youth's Communication Crystal advised them:

"Your front, slight right, about fifty feet, is the opponent's Elementalist."

"The Swordsman and Musketeer are in another direction."

"This time, the spell strayed a little, try adjusting a few degrees left."

"Alright," a clapping sound came from the crystal, the voice lightly saying, "I've taken care of the opponent's Magic Guided Conductor."

"Luo Yu, converge with me, Miss Sophie has located their Commander."

"Sophie?"

The Uncrowned Crown was slightly stunned, suddenly thinking of something.

Wait, could it be that Sophie?
