"Barbara, your injuries...?"
Barbara looked down at the bloodstains on her clothes, unconcerned, and casually wiped them away, only to find blood smeared on her own hand.
"Fischl, did you forget that I am a Healing Nun? A few minor wounds like this won't defeat me."
Fischl looked at her friend, covered in bloodstains but still composed, with a complex expression. While Barbara's progress was indeed pleasing, it was progressing too quickly.
Just moments ago, she was a delicate little princess who didn't want to dirty her dress, and now she had transformed into a tough woman capable of tearing apart tigers and leopards!
"But Barbara, won't the water ring you use for healing get Frozen by the Wolf King's ice?"
A smile touched Barbara's lips, and a glint of wisdom flashed in her eyes.
"Since the Hydro Element on the surface of the body can be Frozen, then let the Hydro Element flow inside the body along the blood vessels, allowing the Hydro Element to traverse the entire body. This not only avoids being Frozen but also enhances the healing effect."
"With the Hydro Element protecting the vital organs inside the body, even if the body sustains a powerful attack, it won't easily lose its combat capability."
The North Wind Wolf King felt within its body that the mass of Hydro Element Barbara had controlled and thrown into its mouth moments ago was now wreaking havoc inside it under Barbara's manipulation.
"I see. Although she is a nun dedicated to healing, when she fights seriously with killing intent, she understands better than anyone how to efficiently and swiftly kill the enemy!"
"This Elemental Power invading my body is indeed troublesome. If I try to expel it using my own Cryo element Power, it will react with the water element and freeze into hard ice blocks, causing even greater destruction inside me."
"Turning the enemy's advantage into my own advantage, and turning my weakness into a method to restrict the enemy."
"I was wrong before when I said you weren't a qualified warrior."
"However—!!!"
The North Wind Wolf King roared, its entire body flashing with blue light, and then spat out a giant ice ball.
"Do you think this is enough to defeat me!!!"
The North Wind Wolf King roared again, entering a sprint mode while in critical health.
The high concentration of Elemental Power made the surrounding visibility extremely low, and the North Wind Wolf King's speed was so fast that they couldn't even keep up.
"Hahaha, the Wolf Train is here!"
The North Wind Wolf King, like a roaring locomotive, charged rapidly toward the two of them. Barbara and Fischl, unable to dodge and standing close together, were immediately sent flying several meters away.
Fischl clutched her broken ribs and struggled to stand up. Ignoring the abrasions on her body, she pulled out a healing potion from the space within her Vision and quickly drank it.
As the medicine began to take effect and the pain subsided significantly, Fischl looked toward Barbara on the other side, causing her mouth to twitch.
The sight was that Barbara, whose body was clearly weaker than hers, was already standing up. She looked vibrant and energetic, not at all like someone injured; instead, she was using the low-temperature environment created by the North Wind Wolf King to construct a labyrinth of ice walls, trying to block the North Wind Wolf King's line of sight.
"Fischl, come here quickly."
"The North Wind Wolf's charge is always in a straight line. Although we cannot determine its movement path by observing its trajectory, we can use this simple labyrinth to make it lose track of our exact location."
"Next is a segment where we rely on luck, and I have great confidence in my own luck!"
Fischl felt a sense of daze. Was this intelligent, strong, confident, and brave girl before her really the Barbara she knew? Where had the gentle, kind, shy, and reserved girl gone?
However, Fischl loved this version of Barbara too!!!
Fischl looked at Oz beside her, had a sudden inspiration, and leaned close to Barbara's ear to whisper her idea.
Barbara's eyes lit up, and she nodded.
...
"Such fragile ice walls, you think they can obstruct my attack? Wishful thinking."
"No, they are trying to use the ice walls to block my line of sight so I can't determine their position."
"A good idea, but you underestimate me."
The North Wind Wolf King hid within the dense mist of Elemental Power, its two giant eyes growing brighter. In its Vision, everything without Elemental Power appeared colorless.
The move the North Wind Wolf King was using was an advanced version of Elemental Sight.
It could not only observe Elemental Power but also observe the concentration of Elemental Power.
"Hmph, Hydro Element and Electro Element, I've found you!"
The North Wind Wolf King immediately crouched down, bracing its four limbs against the ground, and formed a streamlined wind wall around its body using Anemo Element. This served both to block attacks and to increase its own speed.
The North Wind Wolf King instantly transformed into a streak of light, forcefully breaking through the successive ice walls, charging toward the location where it observed the densest concentration of Hydro Element and Electro Element.
Bang—!!!
"How is it possible that there's nothing!!!"
When the North Wind Wolf King broke through the last ice wall obstructing its Vision, it suddenly discovered that the area ahead was empty. Fearing a trap ahead, it immediately stopped.
It activated Elemental Sight again and discovered a pile of shattered glass bottle shards ahead, emitting strong elemental reactions.
"Now is the time!"
"Go, Oz."
Barbara and Fischl took advantage of the momentary stiffness while the North Wind Wolf King was using Elemental Sight, seizing the opportunity to unleash their ultimate moves.
Fischl and Oz coordinated with a Thunderstorm Meteor Downpour. Barbara, lacking the time to develop an ultimate move, could only use her most basic Hydro Element Bullets to continuously strike the North Wind Wolf King.
Although Barbara's Hydro Element control, honed by treating patients, made it easy to shape these water bullets into more damaging water spikes or water lances, her attack this time was not aimed at maximizing damage but at triggering Elemental Reactions alongside Fischl and Oz's attacks.
The Hydro Element and Electro Element met on the North Wind Wolf King's fur layer, causing a violent Electro-Charged reaction that blackened its beautiful fur.
The North Wind Wolf King then realized that the ice walls it had just broken through concealed a trick. Barbara had intentionally shaped the ice walls to be hollow, filling the interior with water. When it smashed through the ice walls, the water naturally soaked its fur.
However, due to its excessive charging speed, it hadn't time to react.
Barbara and Fischl cheered happily and high-fived as they watched the North Wind Wolf King being continuously bombarded by the Electro-Charged reaction, unable to counterattack.
"Yay!"
"I can't believe it, we actually succeeded."
"Barbara, I truly see you in a new light. I never thought you were this amazing!"
"It's not as exaggerated as you say."
"Oh right, that guy Arkz is still stuck in the ice. Let's hurry up and save him."
Fischl proudly ran toward Arkz's direction. This guy had wanted to sneak in a final blow at the critical moment, but he ended up AFK the whole time. She definitely had to take this chance to mock him thoroughly.
"I hereby announce the MVP of this match is Ba~Ba~Ra!"
"You are celebrating too soon."
The wolf howl coming from behind made the two girls, who had just been happily celebrating, stop in their tracks and look back with solemn expressions.
