Meanwhile outside...
Audrey realized this fight was endless, she switched to using new tactics by exploiting her opponent's weaknesses. The witch's weakness was close combat, but this did not apply to Audrey.
After all, Audrey's wand had a pointed tip, looking like a combination of a spear and a magic wand, while her enemy this time only used a magic tool in the form of a ring as a substitute for a magic wand.
Indeed Audrey is not very good at spearmanship, but it is not a problem, as long as it can go forward and attack it is enough. Moreover, what he was holding was a magic wand, not just a spear, so his attacks could vary slightly.
Audrey ran forward to attack, making the villain leader in front of her startled, she cast a simple spell making the blue crystal on her staff turn red and then the tip burn. He swung his magic wand quickly, continued to run forward even though his attack looked a little careless, but of course made the enemy in front of him afraid.
The fire continued to blaze between the magic wand that was swung around, the user ran and approached the enemy until the remaining distance of several meters.The villain leader in front of him could not do much other than keep retreating backward.
Moments later he fell down and quickly the sharp, burning wand was swung to almost hit the leader's neck, but fortunately it stopped just a few centimeters. The villain leader grimaced in fear, his pants slightly wet and his head was almost ripe being roiled by the fire, and Audrey looked at Hendry wondering what the situation was.
“Where's Hen, there ?”
"Ah relax, just kroco hehehe.." The other four criminals were overwhelmed against Hendry, maybe in strength they were stronger but all attacks were repelled and many were avoided, so they four exhausted themselves. Now it was time for Audrey to settle matters with the villain leader's witch, she looked back and in her heart said…
What is it like ???
The leader of the criminals ran away from Audrey while laughing wickedly, even though his pants were a little wet.
"Wahahahahaha.., here's our real expertise…"
"Everything.., we're going to execute plan B."
All of the villains had left the fight, leaving the confused Hendry and Audrey both silent. They run to the log house, where the two men were kidnapped, then intend to use them as sandra in order to escape this time. The leader of the criminals whose pants were wet was intending to open the door and drag the two people inside out, but what happened was…
Woosh…
Brak!....
Deadline…..
The leader was knocked out quickly, mentally several tens of meters even with the door he was holding. smashed into the wall and also the nearby iron pole until his head was bumped, his body slightly chafed along with his pants getting wetter. Apparently the thing that happened just now was none other than Eliana's wind magic, since the two of them had already been released just a moment ago.
“AH SHIT... We do plan C!!!” Shouted the leader in annoyance.
All the criminals had run in the opposite direction so that no one was caught, and in this area there were many narrow alleys like labyrinths between the city buildings. It also aims to break down their concentration, so that they are confused as to which one to catch first, so that they are confused, this is also what makes this group of criminals have never been caught by guard soldiers since many years ago.
In addition to the five of them, there are also many other criminals who are stronger in this city but tend to be easier to catch. Although they are weak as long as they are never caught they will always be able to troublemaker, this is what underlies the main problem in this city, so the five of them got the nickname “Tikus Got” from all who live here, because of their shrewdness in the art of escape.
That was the info the three of them got from Rio while discussing about this plan, so they also had time to think about the action of Anticipation afterwards.
"HAHA No one can catch us….AND NEVER WILL !!!" Shouted the leader arrogantly.
He did not pay attention to the surroundings, and continued to run looking back while mocking the two of them who were confused, until he was not aware that his wet pants were getting worse and dripping with warm liquid. He kept running around with pride then…
Dugg…
The leader immediately looked forward, and to his surprise, the one seen in front of him turned out to be a high and very thick wall of ice with a thickness estimated to be as deep as 1 meter.
The other four villains also experienced the same thing, they all saw a high and thick wall of ice on all sides. All the alleys around here are covered by ice walls that isolate the area completely so there is no escape while they are all confined inside.
Apparently this ice wall was there before Hendry and Audrey showed up. The sudden fog and cold temperatures were the effect of Audrey making an ice wall to lock this area in.
"We've been kind enough to leave the bandits we defeated on the road, but we can't let the guan who's in front of us get away with it." Said Hendry proudly as a spider that managed to uncover prey in its web.
The leader began to panic at the sight of their group's expertise over the years successfully thwarted this time. Eventually the four others gathered on an ice wall near the leader, and tried to do something else.
Given that their leader could master fire magic, he was trying to melt his ice, while the remaining four turned their backs and protected the leader so that the two people in front of him would not disturb him while melting the ice.
But Hendry and Audrey did not move in the slightest, there was no intention to disturb them, and instead watched leisurely.
After all, this ice wall was quite difficult to melt even with fire, because this ice came from Audrey's magic and was not formed naturally from frozen water, and even though Audrey melts it can freeze it again, again and again.
Feeling that the situation was safe enough, Eliana and the two children came out and rejoined Hendry and Audrey. It seems Eliana is still cool with her food even though it seems to have entered the second round.
“You want?” Eliana offered the food she was eating and took 2 more for Hendry and Audrey.
After that Hendry and Audrey also went to eat, while Rio and Anna observed the criminals in surprise. They were relaxing as well not without reason yet they were waiting for the five villains to give up either.
Slowly but surely, the ice was successfully melted bit by bit, the other four villains were of course astonished. How could the enemy who almost managed to catch them, even cool to relax and eat chicken rice.
After the hard effort the ice wall began to hole, although it had to spend the evil leader's magic energy. Now he was limp and only depended on the other four people. Not wanting to repeat the same mistake they tried to go quietly through the hole in the wall.
But what happened instead they could not pass through the hole in the wall, because the hole was too small, the Leader who entered first was trapped between the wall. His friend tried hard to push but the results were futile there were also those who tried to hole other parts of the ice wall with weapons because of so much panic, but it was also in vain.
This is what Hendry and Audrey have been waiting for. Audrey paused for a moment from eating it, picked up a nearby magic wand then used the same magic. Slowly the water particles began to appear in front of the wall, moving up and finally starting to freeze. Add another layer of ice wall in front of the wall that was successfully perforated, not only 1 but 5 walls at once while still maintaining the same thickness.
All the criminals were speechless, they were all silent, shocked, shocked, and their mouths were wide open until there was a hint of liquid dripping. At this time their mentality and self-esteem was destroyed, facing a powerful enemy that turned out to be only two people and seemed still a beginner without being able to escape even a little.
Since they had all been here for too long, and the two little brothers started to get a little cold, Hendry stood up and put forward the last option.
“So how ?... Want to give up now ?, Or we make battered first we drag ?” Said Hendry firmly, excited and excited also a little cruel, all of it painted on his face.
All criminals can not do much, willing to fight in vain until finally they all decided to give up.
“We give up..” Say everything compactly.
“Ok... Nice!!” Hendry continued firmly and proudly.
Rio and Anna were amazed by what the three people were doing, they did not expect it to be this successful. Not only saved Anna who was kidnapped, but these three people managed to catch criminals who became a problem in this city since many years ago.
While Eliana is currently guarding Rio and Anna, Hendry and Audrey begin to disarm all of their weapons and tie the five of them together. The whole body is tied up and only leaves the legs so they can walk on their own. On the other hand Audrey was busy collecting all their weapons that had been scattered, then stored in storage magic. No one knows about the fate of the next weapon, whether to be discarded, cleaned for reuse or sold kilos. But it was not a problem after all this could be considered as the spoils of war, no matter what happened no one cared.
Once the five criminals are tied up, it means that everything is almost done. Audrey melted down all the ice walls that locked up this area. Now that the ice has melted, here it feels muddled and a little flooded, they immediately go out, leading the criminals to hand it over to the guard soldiers and get additional benefits from their work.
