After work, start to speedrun the other world-Chapter 421 - 158 Cold World_2

"Ahtal... you are colder than I expected," the Ice and Snow Goddess stepped out from the thick mist, her sapphire-like eyes filled with heartbroken sadness and murderous intent. She had not expected Ahtal to prioritize killing her own sister over her.

Even though he had previously declared that he would kill her.

"What’s wrong with taking out the minions first?" Xi Mu asked back puzzled, "Did you expect me to fight them all at once?"

A justified retort.

From Ahtal’s perspective, eliminating potential obstacles was an entirely normal thing to do.

The Ice and Snow Goddess gritted her teeth, "They are not minions, they are my sisters."

"So what?" Xi Mu replied coldly, then tilted his head and thought for a moment, revealing a wicked smile, "Don’t look so sad, I will send you to meet them soon, so you won’t be sad anymore, right?"

"Hehehe... I won’t kill you," the Ice and Snow Goddess suddenly laughed bitterly, "I will keep you by my side, and then freeze to death everyone you care about, one by one in front of you, so you will understand my current heartbreak."

Xi Mu inquired, "Do you plan to freeze the Witch of Death as well?"

"..." The Ice and Snow Goddess fell silent, her aura instantly becoming more dangerous as she abandoned maintaining the blizzard to fight Ahtal with all her might.

This despicable man must die.

...

...

Meanwhile,

Elsewhere,

"God of the Giant Hammer, shall we go in?" the god dressed as a Knight asked his companion, "The Ice and Snow Goddess no longer has support."

After pondering, the God of the Giant Hammer shook his head, "The Ice and Snow Goddess is not at a disadvantage yet, let’s wait for more reinforcements before making a move."

"That works," the God of Knights thought for a moment, nodding solemnly. However, his eyes tightly followed every move on the battlefield, ready to intervene and save the Ice and Snow Goddess, preventing another uncontrollable tragedy.

Many gods have already fallen at Ahtal’s hands, and more cannot be allowed to die by his hand.

"But won’t the Witch of Death react if we attack Ahtal?" the God of the Giant Hammer suddenly asked, "If the Witch of Death suddenly descends, all of us could be in danger."

Despite the gods having an overwhelming advantage in numbers, and the combination of different abilities usually being able to crush the sparse demons and witches, the scenario completely changes upon reaching the "omnipotent" domain.

Thousands of abilities combined, yet the solution can still be found by an omnipotent being, even if powers affecting the mind, body, environment, and fate are used simultaneously.

This is also why the Witch of Death possesses such a deterrent force.

And it seems that the Witch of Death’s power isn’t just limited to the omnipotent level; otherwise, she wouldn’t have been able to harm the Goddess of Death.

"The Goddess of Lies and the Goddess of Justice have gone to delay the Witch of Death," explained the God of Knights, "If the situation becomes dangerously critical, then the Goddesses of Life and Death will also intervene."

The God of the Giant Hammer nodded in understanding, his expression relaxing.

Since someone is keeping an eye on the Witch of Death and her group, he didn’t need to worry about being suddenly killed and could focus on dealing with Ahtal, this demon.

...

...

In the capital of Elf Country,

"Has the snow stopped?" Estif raised her hand, catching the last snowflake, watching it melt in the palm of her hand, "Has the Ice and Snow Goddess been killed by Ahtal?"

She had been following Ahtal’s trail all this while, naturally aware that Ahtal intended to kill the Ice and Snow Goddess.

And the ceaseless blizzard stopping, could it indicate that Lord Ahtal had successfully killed the Ice and Snow Goddess?

Effectively ending the blizzard.

"It’s that the Ice and Snow Goddess no longer has the energy to maintain the blizzard," a voice teased from the side of the road, causing Estif to blink in surprise, and instinctively turn to look.

What caught her eye was a female Elf, wearing a beret, who seemed lackadaisically sprawled on the counter, giving her a playful look.

"A mere follower of the Dusk Cult dares to come to the capital of Elf Country, quite bold of you."

"..." Estif squeezed out a composure smile, lifting the hair that fell over her eyes, revealing eyes that seemed to blaze with fire, "Miss Elf, may I ask you to introduce yourself?"

"Lazy Witch," the elf yawned, propping herself up on the counter and staggering towards Estif to explain, "Now the Ice and Snow Goddess is finally getting serious."

"Why do you know this?" Estif asked subconsciously, watching as the Lazy Witch lifted her hair from her ear to reveal her frostbitten cheek.

"Because I’ve fought with her before." 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Estif: "..."

Had witches in this world become cost-free? Why else could one encounter them casually on the road, when previously the odds of meeting a witch were lower than encountering a deity?

Now, witches had begun to overflow.

"Followers of the Dusk Cult, you aren’t planning some mischief, are you?" the Lazy Witch asked, concerned about the thing she cared about the most.

Estif quickly shook her head, "I’m just here to observe the battle between Ahtal and the Ice and Snow Goddess, to confirm the future... plans of the Dusk Cult."

"Is that so?" the Lazy Witch yawned, turning back toward her shop, clearly losing interest in Estif.

Without thinking twice, Estif turned and fled; she couldn’t risk betting on whether the Lazy Witch would casually kill her.

Shortly after.

By a riverside.

"Survived?" Estif felt a bit incredulous. Followers of the Dusk Cult like her usually got casually killed by witches, just as humans swat mosquitoes, yet she had luckily survived.

"Was it because the witch was lazy, or because of the gravitational pull of fate from Ragnarok?" She looked down at her palm, feeling as though she could survive even foolish actions before the All Gods due to some fortuitous coincidence.

But she only dared to think about it, not try it.

This also implied, indirectly, that Ahtal was chosen by Ragnarok, otherwise why would fate be so mindful of her?

...

...

Light swept across fiercely, slicing through towering icebergs. Broken ice pieces reflected a golden shimmer under the sunlight.

The Ice and Snow Goddess touched her cheek, her fingers stained with fresh blood. Even though she used the ice for instant teleportation, she still couldn’t completely dodge the slashes from the Sword of Light; the speed of those slashes was simply too fast.

This couldn’t continue; otherwise, she would eventually be struck by the Sword of Light.

With this thought.

The Ice and Snow Goddess crouched down, her hand gently brushing the ground. The chill spread from her palm, and icebergs rose from the ground.

Seen from the sky, it looked as if a dozen icebergs emerged from all directions, encasing a flame-wreathed human-shaped dragon at the center of the icebergs.

Having done all this.

The Ice and Snow Goddess’s figure disappeared from the spot, as if merging into the ice, moving at high speed stealthily.

Xi Mu shook the Sword of Light in his hand, then liberated it again, directly slicing the surrounding icebergs in half.

The collapsing icebergs turned into a sky full of falling ice, crashing to the ground like meteors. Occasionally, pieces that fell on Xi Mu would instantly vaporize into mist by the Flames of a Thousand Deaths.

Too difficult to handle.

Anyone who had fought Ahtal would inevitably think such desperate thoughts. Not only was she inferior in combat experience, but also that hard-to-dodge Sword of Light posed a mortal threat with one hit.

Unless Ahtal gave up resistance, it would be difficult to defeat her.

"Cold World."

Suddenly.

The Ice and Snow Goddess emerged from nearby ice, extending both hands towards Ahtal’s direction as if to embrace her.

Xi Mu made no resistance, standing frozen on the spot, no... he was indeed frozen.

The falling ice, the reflected sunlight, the flickering flames, all were immobilized in that instant, as if the whole world was frozen.

However, this was not freezing but rather entering a cold void, causing the phenomenon of stagnation.

Any trace of heat had already... been erased.
