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

Now that you mention it, it really does look alike!

But these aren't even the same forbidden item, are they...?

She and her aunt witnessed firsthand how the Moon Goddess blocked the Sun Princess's arrow.

At that time, the clothing of the Moon Empress clearly did not have ice and snow effects, and Weiss was not covering his face either, so his entire face was clearly reflected in the projection.

Moreover, and most importantly, Whis and Diana's sequence numbers don't match at all...?

Vera, who had remained silent, pursed her lips.

Although she wasn't clear on the specific abilities of the Climate Master, thunder and blizzards were both part of the climate, right? In her opinion, Vis was practically a shoo-in for the Moon Thunder Emperor.

In other words, it was actually Aunt Bai who was chatting with me through love letters during this period, right?

No wonder he doesn't look human at all...

However, even after confirming Weiss's true identity, her feelings became even more conflicted, and she was in so much pain that she could hardly breathe.

She never imagined that she would fall in love with her best friend Elune's husband.

No wonder Diana said she already had a wife...

"Is this the real cuckoldry complex?"

At this moment, Vera finally understood the ultimate secret of the martial arts sequence zero.

Perhaps this unattainable, doomed, and unrequited love will find its place in the next novel...

"..."

"..."

"Wait, do climate engineers also have the ability to manipulate ice and snow!?"

At that moment, looking at Weiss standing high in the sky like an ice god descending to earth amidst the falling snow, Lorne and Oliver on the street simultaneously showed an enlightened expression, as if struck by a sudden realization.

So, meteorologists can also manipulate ice and snow?!

This was a path they had never imagined before.

OK--

It was copied.

They will resign and stay at home to spend their lives studying this ability.

At the same time, the academics who were cheering for Corona also stopped. Although the streets of the royal city were still filled with discussions, there was no one specifically cheering for any particular player.

Because, faced with this surreal situation, people no longer know who to cheer for.

Only a very few students, still struggling desperately, stubbornly protested, demanding that Night Patrol immediately stop the competition, extract the whereabouts of the real academic leader from this imposter Corona, and rescue her as soon as possible.

But faced with such a tragic situation, even Emily, who was originally the most fanatical and blind, was completely unable to continue. She loosened her grip on the support banner and let it hang down somewhat forlornly.

A little calm thinking will make it clear.

Corona was the Sun Princess from the very beginning.

Or rather, the academic leader was the Sun Princess from the very beginning...

Her only connection to the Divine Court was the attack two years ago.

Even if someone did indeed impersonate another, it happened right then and there...

This means that it doesn't matter whether Corona herself is real or fake, alive or dead; at least from the moment she became the chief, she was already the Sun Princess.

Under the spotlight.

Weiss and the Sun Princess stood silently facing each other at positions 25 kilometers and 22 kilometers respectively.

Meanwhile, Bingfei acted as if nothing had happened, leisurely playing a single-player game over a distance of more than 40 kilometers, seemingly completely unaware of the crisis below.

At this moment, with the activation of the Snowflake Mystery Fragment by the Climate Master, the ice crystal domain surrounding Weiss began to expand rapidly outward from him, directly dragging the wind field within a radius of several miles into a vast white blizzard zone. As a result, the Wind Cloak's heat resistance ability leaped several levels, almost equivalent to taking a leisurely bath in the high-temperature atmosphere of a solar eclipse.

However, at the same time.

As the power of the Snowflake Mystery was turned up to the maximum, Weiss felt his already more detached emotional fluctuations plummet even further.

It turned directly into a stagnant pool of water, without any wind or waves, as if no ripples or waves could be felt at all.

"This is..."

"One of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, the perspective of snow?"

"Just a little bit of it, and you can't feel joy, anger, sorrow or happiness anymore, as if you regard everything in the world as dust."

Weiss knew that the feelings and excitement he was experiencing at this moment were still far from being one of the true Seven Wonders of the World.

Because he can still objectively recognize what he should be doing at this moment.

You won't feel lost...

At this moment, Weiss maintained a cold and indifferent demeanor, expressionless and unmoved, while Corona's expression of horror grew increasingly uncertain.

no.....

What was that guy mumbling about just now?

She didn't even have time to think about the mystery of the snow fragments; her mind was filled with the shocking words about the complete mystery of the Climate Master.

Was what he said a lie...?

It's probably fake...

It's just a bluff...

But what if, hypothetically, it were true?

Doesn't that mean we're only one step away from the source?!

In an instant, a chill ran through the Sun Princess's body, rushing up her tailbone and straight to the top of her head, making her scalp tingle and her hair stand on end.

He had originally intended to assassinate Bingfei here, which was why he was willing to expose his identity.

What she never expected was that on the only way to the Ice Queen, there was a completely mysterious weather master blocking her bowstring, and one that was absolutely impossible to pass by in a short time.

Is this the inescapable fate ingrained in my blood?

In this place, you'll encounter a completely enigmatic weather master, and it will be a fight to the death!

Thinking of this, the Sun Princess took a slow breath, steadied her slightly trembling arms, and once again slowly drew back the Eclipse Bow towards Weiss.

The priority for eliminating targets has shifted from Ice Queen to the man in front of us!

Weiss observed her drawing the bow with a blank expression and indifferent demeanor, his heart unmoved.

In fact, ever since the Sun Princess's true identity was revealed, the question that had been troubling him was finally answered.

He finally understood why this woman was able to walk all the way up the 5-kilometer ice ladder area using only her physical strength.

Because from the very beginning when she started climbing the ice ladder, she had already used a portion of the extraordinary power of her pathway ability (Judgment).

From 5 kilometers onwards, up to the longest stretch of 21 kilometers, all those overwhelming flame formations and lava-flowing special effects were just illusions created by the forbidden solar eclipse.

Even when she was stuck at the 21-kilometer mark, her exhausted state was only half-real... It was indeed her limit at the time, but it was only the limit of that so-called meager supernatural power.

We are very familiar with these tricks and methods.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh—"

As the frozen, cracked money pouch in Weiss's pocket opened automatically, seven greedy coins, with an icy, crystalline texture, poured out in one go, tumbling and floating around him along the path guided by the gale.

It seemed that this real life-or-death battle was about to erupt in the high-altitude region.

Below the snow ladder, Night Patrol Snow Queen, who was still immersed in the rage of the headquarters being infiltrated by the Divine Court, suddenly paused.

As she looked at the few ice and snow coins rotating around Weiss, a strange and familiar feeling arose in her heart.

"coin......?"

Yes, she had seen her before.

Just minutes before the caged bird was born.

She had witnessed firsthand a coin, tracing the path of a comet, crash heavily into the underworld...

The next second, as the wind field expanded completely, the oval storm barrier surrounding Weiss increased in size by more than ten times, like an invisible, transparent giant bowl, covering the entire three-kilometer vertical space between him and the Sun Princess.

Thousands of tons of pressure poured down like a waterfall, and the ice staircase beneath Princess Sun's feet emitted a heavy thud.

The sudden, terrifying weight pressed down on her arms, causing them to drop sharply, and she almost lost her grip on the bow.

Her face was extremely pale, and she forced out a few indistinct syllables through gritted teeth, which was how she managed to forcibly counteract the weight that felt like a mountain pressing down on her.

Then, she restoring the bow.

As the eclipse bow slowly adjusted its angle, a mysterious crimson-gold light flashed in the Sun Princess's bright red eyes.

"This arrow will surely strike the weatherman before us."

This arrow defied all extraordinary obstacles.

"This arrow will be a fatal blow!!!"

"BOOM—!!!!!"

As the Sun Princess uttered these three seemingly impossible rules, each word a pinpoint, into the air, a blazing sun arrow materialized out of thin air right in the center of the bowstring.

Like a miniature sun that has been forcibly compressed, the recoil from the tail flame alone created a massive, ring-shaped wave of flame high in the sky.

If it weren't for the shielding function of the Snow Palace Ice Ladder, the aftershocks generated by the arrow alone would have been enough to wipe out all the buildings in the royal city.

"Wait, why is this guy just standing there like an idiot? Isn't he just giving someone else time to build up their power? That's one of the Ten Kings!!"

Miss Xing was somewhat incredulous when she saw this scene projected onto the screen in the headquarters conference room during her night patrol.

Although she has no connection whatsoever with the martial arts faction, she doesn't need to know how to refrigerate to evaluate an air conditioner.

Even from a God's-eye view, something feels very wrong.

"If I were Whis, I could have secretly paired her up while the Sun Princess was charging up..."

Snow Knight: ......

Winter Duke: ......

Sera: ......

Should we say it's fortunate that the Snow Queen isn't around right now?

The most bizarre episode is here.

...

The next second, under the indifferent gaze of Weiss, the Sun Princess slowly released the bowstring.

With a sound as powerful as an earthquake, the entire space momentarily froze, followed by a devastating pillar of fire capable of overwhelming all sensory frequencies.

Accompanied by a terrifying burst of fire that engulfed the ice ladder area more than 20 kilometers below her, this world-destroying solar arrow transformed into a setting sun that forcibly rose from the horizon, detonating a flashbang directly over the royal city.

At this moment, not only in the royal city area, but also in other towns nearly a thousand kilometers away, the light that suddenly exploded could be clearly seen.

Those who go against the tide

As the destructive light rapidly magnified in his vision, Weiss calmly uttered the words.

His mind went into an overclocked state at high speed in that instant. The flow of all fluctuations in the surrounding air was lengthened and slowed down by this reverse force, and even the firing speed of the solar arrows was forcibly suppressed by half.

Then, in a field of vision that was slowed down by almost half, Weiss clearly sensed that his thick wind field, which had considerable mass and density, shattered instantly upon contact with the arrow.

As the outermost wind field outline instantly disintegrated into countless fragmented wind particles, the absolute defense protecting the innermost side of Weiss also shattered.

The countless layers of wind rings, meticulously constructed by those who went against the tide, were pierced relentlessly by arrows, one after another.

"Ok?"

Weiss was slightly taken aback, somewhat surprised.

It should be noted that back in the Moon City era, he was able to easily block a blow from the Sun Princess using the Reverse Flow.

Unexpectedly, they couldn't even do the most basic defense and obstruction.

It can't be that we've regressed.

It seems the other party added some rather complicated commands to the attack terms set through the judgment sequence...

Does this time it feature more precise armor penetration or other advanced settings?
