Lex, for the first time, saw Gwendolyn smiling. Although it was a light smile, he noticed it. And he would be lying if he said he wasn't captivated for a moment by that smile.
Shaking those thoughts off, Lex smiled, 'So you found out about my plans? Hmm, let's see if you have.'
Gwendolyn looked at the cracks on the snake's body and tapped her foot on the ground. The next moment, a vast amount of pure white ice began to leak from the ground and began getting absorbed into the snake's body.
That resulted in the filling of the snake's cracked skin, and it strengthened even more. Gwendolyn had pushed herself beyond her limits, so she had also saved a trump card because of that. When she was putting ice in the snake, she was actually sending most of the ice to the ground and maintaining it there.
It was a tough task, and she had to stand in one place to accomplish this. Now, that helped her. The snake was stronger than ever, and she could counter now.
