Chapter 1532: Chapter 1532: Let’s Run an Experiment First
The complex sounds of discussion came to an abrupt halt.
Qiuye looked up and found everyone’s gaze converging on her.
"Just now, I didn’t say anything strange, right?"
"That’s it!"
Yang Yu snapped his fingers,
"If there’s a place where fire can’t ignite, the pressure to deal with him will greatly diminish."
"A place where fire can’t ignite at all... How about dragging him into the ocean? Or a slightly larger lake, a regular pool definitely won’t work; with his firepower, he can surely evaporate the water dry!"
Iyas slowly suggested, but Bai Jin tapped Iyas with a magic wand, giving her a direct blow: "Not to mention the difficulty of immersing him into the ocean, the flames used by the Red Flame Monarch are essentially magic; even if there’s no visible flame, the technique of flame magic can still raise the temperature of surrounding seawater, I don’t think ordinary people can withstand that."
"Iyas, you occasionally miss the point; I thought we were all on the same page." Lotcar laughed heartily, "Think again, isn’t there a better way? A place where all magic flames fail, we all went there before?"
Crossing arms in deep thought, Iyas couldn’t think of such a place for a while.
Bai Jin gently reminded from the side: "We followed the army there and spent two cold winters."
With Bai Jin’s reminder, related memories immediately surfaced in Iyas’s mind:
"What was that plain called?
It happens that the plain is also in the Wansheng Republic, if we can lure him there...
No, the reason why flame magic fails there is because of winter, right?
Spring has just begun, we’re far away from the next winter..."
"Indeed, far away."
Yang Yu did not deny this point.
He’s thought much further than Iyas; if it weren’t feasible, he wouldn’t continue along Qiuye’s train of thought.
"The Red Flame Monarch’s race is the Blazing Fire Clan.
During the first winter in battle with the Luo Ze Empire’s army, my forces used their warm fire stones for warmth.
The existence of such stones indicates that the Blazing Fire Clan might resist the abnormal weather on the Selovomen Plain.
There’s still no evidence proving the winter on the Selovomen Plain can completely extinguish Ammonval’s flames.
We need to conduct an experiment first."
"At the current speed of the Demon King Army’s advance, won’t make it to the next winter right?
Even conducting an experiment, bringing that thing over...
might lead to some unforeseen consequences." Iyas was worried.
"I never said the experimental subject is Ammonval.
I want to verify some things first.
If these things are as I think, we can defeat Ammonval as easily as we defeated Tian Hanxue."
Yang Yu said resolutely,
"This plan might not have to wait until winter, rather, this timing is just right.
The Demon King is well-prepared and should know a thing or two about the plain, if they execute this plan in winter, there’s no way they wouldn’t be on guard.
But this timing can catch them off guard."
"That’s what you’re saying..." Iyas raised her question, "But, how can we possibly make the entire plain enter winter mode?
Is there really a way to directly reverse natural laws?
Speaking of which, what exactly makes that plain cause all flame magic to fail in winter?"
Yang Yu spread his hands and replied: "Who knows, maybe buried under that plain is a relic similar to the ones near the Lamia Clan.
Just now, no one knows where that relic truly is.
Finding a relic like that requires luck, and more luck."
As Yang Yu spoke, his gaze glanced toward Iyas.
Iyas pouted: "I know what you’re thinking.
But that plain is so vast.
Even if my luck is slightly different compared to others...
with my meager fortune, finding the relic and discovering what prevents flame magic from forming in winter there...
it’s quite unrealistic, isn’t it?"
Yang Yu bluntly answered: "I know that for sure.
We still don’t know what happened in ancient times.
Perhaps, that relic is buried deep underground and basically not visible from the surface.
Unless we dig three feet deep, no matter how we search it won’t help.
Whether the plan can be implemented largely depends on the results."
"Do you mean, you still want to rely on my luck to find that relic?" Iyas said uncertainly.
"The result I’m referring to is the experimental outcome.
If found, of course, I want to discover that relic.
However, given our current knowledge, even if we find it, it might be difficult to activate it.
We might even encounter unmentioned dangers lurking within, meeting the relic’s guards.
Therefore, we still have to try and see if there’s another way to trigger the effect on the Selovomen Plain.
If we can manage through other methods to regain the ability to nullify flame magic on Selovomen, we wouldn’t need to exhaust ourselves searching for the relic."
Iyas nods lightly, "Makes some sense. So how do you intend to activate the effects on the Selovomen Plain?"
"The plain’s special effects are usable only during winter. Do you remember the time point when flame magic started failing?"
Facing Yang Yu’s question, Iyas shook her head.
Yang Yu continued to ask: "What do you think is most common in winter? When it arrives, makes you feel winter truly has come?"
"Snow, I guess..." Iyas pondered and responded thoughtfully, "When cold winds blow you might feel it’s winter; however, seeing snow makes you feel winter really has arrived..."
"Then how do you think it’s possible to make a heavy snowfall from the sky?"
"Weather magic?"
Bai Jin and Iyas spoke in unison.
Yang Yu’s face showed a satisfied smile, "Weather magic can indeed make snowfall during this time."
"But just snowing, could it deceive the plain, thinking it’s already winter?" Iyas doubted greatly.
Yang Yu chuckled, "I’m not naive enough to think that changing the weather can change the season.
That’s why I said experimenting is necessary.
If the trigger for the plain’s effect isn’t the season but rather the weather, what would that result in?
If I recall correctly, only after the first snowfall did flame magic completely fail on the Selovomen Plain.
With the retreat of the last snowfall, flame magic is once again usable on that plain.
Right now it’s all speculation, so we must experiment to verify my thought.
Bai Jin, contact Ming Dalak immediately, we need his help for our experiment.
If our tests succeed, we’ll have plenty to keep us busy next."
