My wife, who's in a vegetative state, please stop eavesdropping on my thoughts.

"However, the gap between me and them is even greater..."

"Because, when I was still at level 8, I had already mastered the complete secrets of the Snow Miracle!!"

As Bingfei finished speaking, Weiss's pupils contracted slightly.

He wondered why Ice Queen looked slightly disappointed when he said the mystery had been awakened.

It turns out that the snowflake secret bestowed upon him by his climate master was just a fragment.

Otherwise, it wouldn't have been in an automatic awakening state from the start!

In other words, the dim ice pattern in the sequence of the one-armed individuals is the complete mystery of the miracle...?

Snow White gave herself two, one whole, one incomplete...

Furthermore, if Bingfei's statement is true, the power of the miracle mystery she mastered at the 8th rank should far surpass the mystery levels of other sequences!

"Splash—"

In an instant, time and space froze.

It was as if the entire airspace was frozen by extremely cold threads.

Entangled in layers of ice crystal chains, forming an impenetrable frozen cocoon, the Ice Princess soared straight into the sky.

Ignoring all the oppressive power above the ten-thousand-meter-high clouds, she transformed directly into a dazzling ice-blue meteor, trailing a long, breathtakingly beautiful icy tail, and traversed a thirty-kilometer area with unstoppable force.

In Weiss's perception of the wind field, the power that Ice Queen was unleashing at this moment was so complex that he could not analyze it using his existing cognitive framework. He could not understand the operational structure of this power at all.

There was no way around it; not only did he not understand extravagant techniques, but he was also completely clueless about the control over the snow-white factors within his own body.

"Looks like I'll have to figure out the mystery of that ice block when I get back..."

"The complete mystery of the miracle..."

Weiss was pondering this in his mind.

In those few short seconds, Bingfei had already broken through the 40-kilometer barrier, which was almost the highest record for Qiping's night patrol after the snowfall that year.

The entire city was eerily silent, with countless people looking on in astonishment as if they had seen a ghost.

no......

40 kilometers?

Is this even human?

What kind of existence are these academics challenging?

Why did the Snow Knights and Winter Dukes of the previous two seasons only cover less than 10 kilometers, but Ice Princess was able to soar to 40 kilometers as soon as she stepped into Tier 7?

Is there any justice left in this world...?

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Bingfei officially stepped into the 40-kilometer zone. She landed steadily on the steps in that heavy and despairing high-altitude area, and the ice crystal chains around her quietly transformed into a flowing ice-blue halo.

The entire Night Patrol headquarters conference room was silent with fear and disbelief; no one could imagine the level of combat power that Bingfei was displaying at this moment.

Only after the night patrol snowed did he gently rest his chin on his fingertips, sinking into the curve of the chair back in a very comfortable posture, like a lazy cat.

Although no obvious change in her expression appeared on her face, the Snow Knight, who had rushed back to the conference room from the side corridor, could tell at a glance that his sister only made such an expression when she was very happy.

It seems she is very satisfied with the power that Bingfei displayed today.

Indeed, among those present, only Xuehou saw through the truth.

Ice Queen is already the holder of the complete mystery of miracles...

In this way, the number of true direct bodyguards for this era has reached four.

They are Snow Queen herself, Cang Wang, Ice Consort, and Snow Knight.

Next, there's one last spot left...

Lady Snow White probably only has one last complete secret left to bestow.

Who could it be?

He thought about it thoughtfully after the snow.

Inside the penthouse suite, Aunt Bai clung to the panoramic glass window, her tail swishing restlessly behind her.

How did Ice Queen become so much stronger all of a sudden? She's already 40 kilometers away! At this rate, does Weiss still have any hope of catching up?!

The little swordsman, with his arms crossed over his chest, didn't hold back his praise for the Ice Princess.

Although she would prefer Weiss to win the title, there's no need to force it if the player isn't strong enough.

If you're not as skilled as others, just accept it.

However, just as all the residents of the royal city were captivated by the Ice Queen's unparalleled beauty, Weiss suddenly sensed a blazing flame shooting up from below, rapidly approaching.

When his wind field perception was triggered, he instinctively dodged to the side.

"boom!!!"

The next second, without warning, the beam of fire grazed his cheek, scorching a few strands of his flying silver hair, and continued to shoot upwards with a sharp screech, eventually exploding into a huge mushroom cloud of surging dark firelight in the forty-kilometer area where Bingfei was located.

The sudden attack stunned all the spectators, who were all dumbfounded and bewildered.

Weiss looked down with a gloomy expression.

A wisp of residual firelight, which had just been released, swirled around Corona's fingertips.

The flame flickered and danced with jubilation, emitting wisps of scalding white steam.

The layer of magma-like skin that had been attached to her body was slowly receding, revealing the fair human skin underneath.

Then, she stepped into the 22-kilometer area with ease, appearing as an ordinary girl without any flame effects, and even had a faint smile on her face as if it were none of her business.

"Wow, I'm surprised you managed to dodge it..." Corona said with some surprise, looking at Weiss who was standing unharmed in the 25-kilometer zone.

"What are you doing?" Weiss frowned.

Is this woman going to suddenly fall seriously ill just because she can't compete with Bingfei?

A dozen seconds later, as the scorching smoke above the ice ladder slowly dissipated, the Ice Princess remained completely unharmed, with not a single burn mark on her clothes.

But her expression was more solemn than ever before.

Logically speaking, his "Jhin" should be in a state of suppression at all times, and no ranged attack should be able to succeed.

However, Corona's attack was indeed launched, completely ignoring his sequence ability.

Was it caused by some kind of taboo substance?

Bingfei frowned.

At this moment, with both Bingfei and Weiss's gazes simultaneously fixed on her from above and below, Corona still maintained a nonchalant and leisurely expression: "No need to be so tense, it's just normal competition. You can suppress me with your extraordinary power, so naturally I can retaliate against you, right?"

As Corona's casual words fell, she raised her hand again, extending two fingers forward, bringing her slender index and middle fingers together and raising them upright, the fingertips once again igniting with that scorching, twisted burst of fire.

Without hesitation, she fired a dozen beams of light even brighter than before. The crimson-gold beams shot from her fingertips and began to bombard the upper part of the ice staircase indiscriminately.

"Boom, boom boom boom boom boom—"

"If you hit Ice Queen, then don't hit me..." Weiss carefully hid at the very edge of the ice ladder.

Above, amidst the constantly exploding fire and bullets, Bingfei impatiently raised her hand, covering the area with even more suppressive power. This forced the flight paths of those clusters of fire to be broken shortly after launch, instantly disintegrating into countless disordered sparks that self-destructed in mid-air.

However, the explosion occurred precisely 25 kilometers from where Weiss was located.

Although this level of attack hadn't broken through the wind circle's defenses, Weiss, amidst the smoke and dust, was already exasperated. He regretted stopping in this position sandwiched between the two women.

A few minutes later, as the bombardment ended, Corona temporarily withdrew her power and looked at Weiss, who was unharmed after the smoke cleared, with some surprise.

"Holy crap, you're still alive?"

"It seems you're more resilient than I imagined..."

"If you dare to attack me again through my arms, I'll fight back!!" Weiss warned seriously.

You know, even men have their tempers to some extent!

Upon hearing this, Corona gave Weiss a meaningful look.

With a disdainful smile, she stepped up another step.

“Mr. Weiss, I apologize, but I need to change something I said earlier. My research wasn't motivated by concern for addicts; to be precise, it was out of hatred—”

"I really hate drug addicts. It's not that I mean it, it's just that the blood in my veins indiscriminately rejects all drug addicts in this world. It's an irresistible genetic instinct..."

"Although my priority is to kill Ice Queen, I can no longer tolerate your disgusting appearance hovering in front of me, so I'll just kill you first..."

As she said this, Corona slowly opened her arms, and a huge golden bow appeared out of thin air in her right hand.

The bow arms are forged from compressed golden light, and light flows across the bow like lava.

The sea of ​​clouds and temperature within a 20-kilometer radius collapsed dramatically the moment the golden bow appeared.

The red-haired girl's entire body then transformed into a blazing fireball, radiating golden light, like the midday sun.

Soon, the fluctuations of another forbidden object appeared on the surface of her body.

It was a fireproof suit made entirely of black silk threads. The black mesh started to seep outwards from under her skin, spreading and climbing along her limbs and torso like vines at an extremely fast speed, until her entire body was covered by the dense black mesh, leaving only a small patch of snow-white skin above her neck exposed to the air.

At this moment, sensing the familiar aura emanating from the girl, Weiss couldn't help but slowly narrow his eyes.

He finally realized where that feeling of déjà vu came from.

Yes, they did indeed meet in Moonlit City.

This woman is—

The Sun Princess, one of the Ten Kings of Sagittarius in the Zodiac!

.

In the Night Patrol headquarters conference room, the Snow Knight suddenly stood up from his chair.

"This is... an eclipse bow!!!"

"It's the Sun Princess, one of the Ten Kings! We must rescue her immediately!!!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he discovered that Xue Hou and Adele had already disappeared.

He didn't even realize when they left.

Snow Knight: ......

—The entrance area of ​​the Snow Palace Ice Stairs.

Sometime later, the first step was covered by a cloud of black mist.

Night Patrol and Adele landed here almost at the same time, frowning as they stared at the black, viscous fog that exuded an ominous aura.

A moment later, a purple light shot down from the sky as if teleported, landing and taking shape beside the two.

The little swordsman Cassandra, whose entire body was radiating purple starlight, actually bypassed the Night Patrol Headquarters' defenses and arrived here, seemingly intending to force her way into the Snow Palace's ice staircase. However, no one cared about such a level of violation anymore.

Upon arrival, she wasn't in a hurry. She simply observed the black mist with great interest, a slight smile playing on her lips.

"It's the Abyss of Capricorn, huh? This is getting interesting..."

"Even the Night Patrol headquarters has been infiltrated by the Divine Court~~~"

Hearing the little sword saint's teasing, Night Patrol Snow's face almost turned icy.

Clearly, if Corona is a member of the Divine Court, then this incident is a premeditated assassination attempt against the Ice Queen.

The Capricorn Lord is currently in power in the Divine Court. He is a Tier 6 Abyss with an extravagant system, and his abilities are extremely troublesome. If it weren't for this annoying guy, they would have destroyed the Divine Court long ago.

If Ice Queen's Ashes forcibly extinguished supernatural power, then this Abyss, merely by approaching it, would draw in all supernatural fluctuations, and to this day they have not found a complete way to counter it.

Furthermore, although the Snow Palace Ice Stairs is the closest path to the Snow Palace, it is also the furthest point from the Night Patrol.

Because if you don't go through the entrance area, it's impossible to fly up from the outside. The oppressive force of the snow there is undiluted and countless times stronger than that in the Snow Palace Trial.

Seeing Adele's worried expression, Cassandra stepped forward and gently patted her shoulder: "Don't worry, there's still Ice Queen, right? They're fighting 2v1, maybe they can even win~~".

Adele: ......

Although she tried her best to regain her confidence, she still couldn't imagine Weiss facing off against the Ten Kings.

Meanwhile, the unrest on the streets outside was out of control.

Almost everyone stared incredulously at Corona, who was holding the Eclipse Bow and wrapped in a black fireproof suit, on the projected screen.

The academics stood there dumbfounded, unable to believe the cruel and absurd reality before them.
