Isekai Adventure in the Dimensional Cube

Chapter 1168 - 860: An Intriguingly Calculated Ambush

"Buzz!"

In that instant, a buzzing sound resonated in the atmosphere.

It was the sound stirred by the drastic change in the air currents.

Near the rushing dragon carriage, the airflow, already chaotic due to the snowstorm, became even more turbulent.

Of course, if it were just this, the magic-enhanced arrows shouldn’t have been affected.

Yet, under the influence of this chaotic airflow, the barrage of flying arrows suddenly changed course, becoming erratic.

[Un-chanting Magic·Arrow-blocking Wall].

A magic specifically used to thwart flying projectiles appeared without warning above the dragon carriage, altering the trajectory of the overwhelming arrow storm.

"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!"...

Instantly, misguided arrows fell one after another near the dragon carriage, piercing the snowy ground, and then exploded one by one, leaving the snow-filled land cratered, with snowflakes scattering everywhere and even shooting up into the air.

Undoubtedly, these arrows were made of special materials, a kind of magic arrow.

"Roar!"

"Roar!"

The two sub-species frost dragons pulling the carriage halted their run and roared towards their surroundings.

"Do the arrows have no effect?"

The leader of the ambush, hidden in the surroundings, saw this scene but did not lose composure.

"Then use magic."

As he spoke, he lifted his hand, and a group of magicians immediately assembled behind him, orderly chanting spells.

Unfortunately, they were too slow.

"Buzz!"

When the buzzing in the atmosphere around the dragon carriage appeared once more, many auroras, like falling stars, emerged.

[Un-chanting Magic·Holy Rite·Aurora].

The auroras suddenly burst forth, conducting an indiscriminate carpet bombardment around the dragon carriage.

"Get out of the way!"

The leader’s pupils shrank as he shouted, then swiftly dashed away like a shadow, disappearing from his original position.

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom...!"

Dazzling auroras rained down like a meteor shower, exploding consecutively in the snowy grounds, lifting snow, splattering stones, and making everything within a few hundred meters feel like being hit by a light explosion, with continuous explosions occurring.

Attackers, hidden in the snow, were either frantically fleeing in panic, avoiding the meteor bombardment from above, or were too slow to react and directly blown away by the auroras, letting out screams.

If this were fire, just one coverage would turn this area into scorched earth, leaving not a single snowflake.

"Damn it!"

The leader did his best to dodge the auroral attack, but found that even if he avoided direct hits, the auroras would immediately change direction, aiming at him.

These were tracking attack spells, forcing him to roll around in the snow awkwardly, trying to dodge them.

When he couldn’t avoid them, he surprisingly grabbed the person next to him, using them as a shield, letting the auroras strike them, exploding them on the spot, turning the shield into shattered bones and spreading endless blood splatter.

He himself, though blown away by the blast, rolled once again in the snow, but at least he wasn’t directly hit by [Holy Rite·Aurora], avoiding severe injuries.

Yet his own embarrassment fueled his anger.

"Attack!"

He roared.

"Don’t leave anyone alive, kill them all!"

In response, a mocking voice echoed.

"Can you do it?"

When this taunting voice reached the leader’s ears, he paused, then without hesitation turned and swung his sword toward the source.

Because that voice came from behind him.

But...

"Thump!"

Before the leader’s sword could strike the one behind him, he was met with a fierce kick to the chest.

It was a kick so fast and powerful that by the time the leader reacted, he was already sent flying.

"Pfft!"

A mouthful of blood spewed from his mouth, leaving a trail of crimson drops on his airborne path, staining the snow red.

By the time he finally stopped, he had crashed heavily into the snow, raising a plume of snow three stories high, even causing the ground to tremble slightly, emitting a loud booming sound.

"Cough, cough...!"

The strike was so overwhelmingly heavy and domineering that the leader felt as if all the bones in his body were shattered under it, his chest collapsing inward.

This left him utterly shocked.

He had received intelligence that the Luke Kingdom’s attack on Mit was thwarted by a group of foreigners, with the army of Luke Kingdom completely defeated, suffering heavy losses, enraging the King of Luke Kingdom.

Hence, for this attack, they had prepared thoroughly, bringing a precious magician platoon and numerous magic tools used in battle, including those arrows.

Yet, unexpectedly, barely starting the assault, and before deploying multiple tactics, he was already seriously injured.

Was the enemy... this strong?

"Retreat!"

Seeing the unfavorable situation, the leader immediately, with gritted teeth, shouted the order while enduring the excruciating pain.

However...

"Who’s retreating?"

Again, a sneer sounded, but this time it wasn’t from the person who just kicked him and appeared behind him.

This made the leader instinctively raise his head and look around.
