Colin and Lily flew towards the nearest tier 4 beast they could find. The beast was a beautiful ram with thick, snow white fur along with large light blue horns and hooves. The creature was nearly two meters in height and three meters in length with icy blue eyes. The creature was inside a destroyed building that was completely frozen over and there were a few frozen beast sculptures around it, serving as a warning to any who dared to challenge it. The beast looked up lazily into the sky and stared at Lily and Colin for a few seconds with it's icy blue eyes before getting onto it's feet. It was the first to attack as it sent out an ice beam from it's mouth towards the duo.
Lily dodged by allowing herself to fall to the ground while Colin decided to destroy the attack by thrusting his sword forward, sending a wave of hellfire towards the attack. As Colin and the ram fought for supremacy in the sky, Lily landed on the ground and skated across the ice towards the ram. The ram soon noticed and was forced to stop it's breath attack, it sent ice pillars towards Lily, but she easily smashed them to bits with her whip. Colin flew down from the sky and the beast decided to send an ice bolder towards him and the ram put multiple ice walls between itself and Lily. With some effort, Colin was able to slice through the bolder with his flaming sword and Lily was able to easily smash through the walls with her whip.
"Watch out!!!" Colin shouted, but it was too late. Just as Lily smashed through the last ice wall, she was met by the beautiful horns of the charging ram which sent her flying away. Colin gritted his teeth and swung down his sword towards the rams head, but to his surprise, the beast was able to deflect it with it's horns. It then bleated loudly, causing a blizzard to appear in the area out of nowhere. Colin was momentary blinded by the snow and the ram took this chance to stab him with a thick ice spike to the stomach. The spike went all the way through and Colin spat out some blood before slashing the spike and removing it from his stomach. With the blizzard active, Colin wasn't able to distinguish the ram from the snow and he couldn't sense it's aura either.
Shards of ice flew towards him from all direction, impaling themselves into his body. Colin created a spherical barrier out of demonic energy and hellfire to protect himself, but he knew it wouldn't hold for long as he could sense the hell fire in the barrier weakening. He seriously considered just creating an explosion of hell fire to destroy the blizzard, but quickly scrapped that idea since he had five or maybe even more tier 4s to kill after this one and he would definitely die if he used too much of his DP now.
"Cancelling Wave!!!" Colin heard a muffled voice shout. Suddenly, Colin saw a wave of red energy spread outward through the blizzard and it soon disappeared, along with his barrier. He could once again sense the ram and he could also see Lily standing with a serpent headed staff that looked the exact same as her whip along with a pissed off expression on her face. She charged forward with her staff in hand towards the ram and the ram decided to charge at her as it's body glowed with icy blue energy.
"No you don't." Colin said as he stood infront of the charging beast with his blade in a defensive position and enveloped in hellfire and his feet planted firmly in the ground. The beast's horns crashed into the sword and Colin could feel his hands and sword being enveloped in hell fire. He was pushed backwards by the tremendous force and his feet created grooves as he was barely able to slow down the charging beast. He could feel his hands freezing over more and more as the beast pushed him back and he had no choice but to pump more hellfire into his sword and hand.
Judging that she was close enough, Lily jumped into the air and did a front flip before pointing the tip of her staff towards the neck of the ram down below. Just as she was about to pierce the rams neck, a powerful blue barrier blocked the tip of the spear, causing sparks to fly in the air.
"Cancel." Lily said and red light emitted from the staff's tip, causing the barrier to shatter instantly. The rams eyes widened as it's barrier shattered and less than a second later, the tip of Lily's staff pierced through it's neck.
"Well, that was fun." Lily said as she removed her staff from the rams neck after confirming that it was dead. The staff then turned back into a whip, making Colin even more curious about the whip.
*Groowl*
Both of them heard a low deep growl and they turned to see a lion with a fiery red mane, but it wasn't alone. These were four other beasts, a golden eagle, a red wolf, a earthy brown rat and a metallic grey scaled lizard. Just as the beasts were ready to pounce, everyone suddenly heard a loud cacophony of buzzing sounds and they all instinctively looked into the sky and shivered.
"Fuck." Colin said and gritted his teeth.
