MMORPG: Rebirth as an Alchemist

Chapter 880  Frozen Foes: Scaling the Ice Titan         

"Don't worry, leave this to me. I could transform into a dragon and smash that Titan's head into a pulp!"

With a fierce roar, Iraelyn began her transformation into her dragon form, her wings spread as she prepared to take flight.

However, just as she was about to take off, and launch herself into the air, she paused.

"Oh, right. I couldn't fly because of the restrictions in here," she admitted sheepishly, a hint of embarrassment coloring her face.

The others exchanged incredulous looks, frustration bubbling beneath the surface of their expressions.

"Then crawl to that damn thing, you damn lizard!" Desira spat, her irritation evident in her voice.

Ren suppressed a sigh, his patience wearing thin as the weight of their predicament settled upon them.

They needed to find a way to reach the Ice Titan's head and free the Goddess, but their options were severely limited without the use of magic or the ability to fly.

"We need to think of another plan," Ren stated, his mind already racing with solutions. "There has to be a way to reach that sphere and break the ice imprisoning the Goddess."

"Hey, what's that?" Vivi asked, pointing at the icicle spire atop the head of the Ice Titan.

Everyone turned their gaze to where Vivi was pointing, squinting their eyes against the bright snow glare. There, they spotted a figure climbing the spire.

Their collective gasp filled the icy air as they realized who it was.

"Pamela?!"

"So that's where she's been hiding!" Desira growled, her fists clenched as she glared daggers at Pamela. "That sneaky little thing. I'll teach her a lesson she won't forget."

"Forget about that for now. What is she doing up there?" Elena asked, her brow furrowing in concern.

Malifira reached into her inventory and pulled out a small scope, placing it over her eye to get a better view. "It looks like she's trying to break the icicle."

"With those frail hands of hers? She'll end up breaking her arms instead," Iraelyn chuckled.

Desira kicked Iraelyn's tail impatiently. "You need to go up there and deal with that crystal."

"How am I supposed to get up there if I can't fly?" Iraelyn retorted.

"You're a lizard, aren't you? All lizards can climb!" Desira insisted.

"I think you're mistaking me for something else," Iraelyn replied dryly.

"Can Tiki climb that thing?" Evie asked Elena, gesturing towards the spire.

Elena shook her head. "I doubt it. The surface looks too slippery, and Tiki isn't fond of cold environments. His delicate feet might get hurt."

"Then we have no choice." Ren glanced over at the rockgoats. "We'll have to scale that thing using the rockgoats."

Potato and the others recoiled in horror, their eyes wide with disbelief as they realized what Ren was suggesting.

The rockgoats, usually docile and obedient, were now restless and agitated at the mere sight of the towering Ice Titan.

"Are you out of your mind? There's no way we're going to take you anywhere near that behemoth!" Potato protested vehemently.

Ren was unfazed by the rejection of Potato and the others', and he casually turned to face them with a menacing grin on his lips. "Either you help us take down that monstrosity, or it will wreak havoc on your village and kill you all. The choice is yours."

Potato and the others exchanged uneasy glances, the weight of Ren's words sinking in.

Indeed, if the behemoth remained unchallenged, it could leave a trail of destruction in its wake, and their village would undoubtedly be caught in its path.

Realization dawned on them, and a sense of urgency filled the air.

They knew they had to act, whether out of self-preservation or a sense of duty to protect their homes and loved ones.

"Fine then!" Potato suddenly roared, his voice echoing with determination. "If we're going to face our demise, then let it be as heroes! Charge!"

Ren and the others immediately mounted the rockgoats' sturdy backs as the creatures skillfully scaled the icy golem.

Meanwhile, Iraelyn focused on distracting the Ice Behemoth, attempting to halt its movements.

Despite its sluggish pace, everything it touched turned to ice, sending shivers down Iraelyn's spine as her tail brushed against its frozen surface.

"Careful! Don't linger too long in contact with it," Malifira cautioned, her eyes scanning the battlefield for any signs of danger.

"Will the rock goats be okay?" Vivi asked, her voice laced with concern.

"Don't worry, they're equipped with specialized feet that protect them from the cold, and their thick fur acts as insulation. They won't be freeze even if they touch this titan," Potato reassured, his gaze fixed on the looming threat before them.

As the Ice Titan remained preoccupied with Iraelyn's relentless assault, frustration began to mount among the group. Without the use of magic, their options seemed limited.

"How are we going to defeat this thing if we can't use magic?" Evie voiced the concern that lingered in everyone's minds. "We need at least fire spell to defeat this thing."

"My inventory items might not do much damage against its enormous HP," Malifira admitted, her expression thoughtful as she pondered their next move.

Suddenly, Pamela's voice echoed from the top of the icy spire, drawing their attention.

"Break the ice! It's the source of the magic restrictions!" she shouted urgently.

"Shut up! You still have a lot of explaining to do on how you ditch us and got there!" Desira hollered back.

"That's not important right now!"

"But how can we break it when Iraelyn is down there, keeping the Titan occupied?" Vivi questioned, her brow furrowed.

Azazel grinned, his eyes gleaming with excitement. "No worries. If we all strike it simultaneously, we can shatter it," he declared with outmost confidence.

Leave it to Azazel to come up with a straightforward plan amidst the chaos, his confidence unwavering even in the face of uncertainty.

"KyaAah!" Desira nearly slipped as the rockgoat sidestepped to avoid the falling debris of ice and snow, and the ever shifting of the Titan's ice body as its hooves deftly navigated the treacherous terrain.

The Ice Titan continued its movement, oblivious to the chaos unfolding on its back.

"Hold on tight, everyone! This is going to be a wild ride!" Potato shouted as they braced themselves for the climb to the top.
