"Be careful!!"
Seeing Garen still standing there stupidly, an Iceborn warrior pounced and pushed Garen aside. The frosthorn, still standing there, was instantly transformed into an ice sculpture.
Garen gasped as he fell to the ground, struggling to stand. The Iceborn who had pushed him away was covered in a layer of frost, which made Garen nervous. He helped the Iceborn up and asked, "Are you okay?"
"I'm fine! I have ice blood flowing in my body, and this level of breath can't hurt me. But you, are you okay?"
The outgoing Iceborn looked at Garen in surprise.
Garen simply glanced at his armor and said, "This ice magic can't hurt me."
"Ha, you're quite boastful, I like that... Anyway, remember to be sharp when hunting! The strength of the ancient frost trolls is no joke! This one can destroy an entire tribe with just one head!"
Just as the Iceborn was still speaking, suddenly, a roar came from the side.
Turning around, Faan was standing on the corpse of a frost troll and casually pulled out the knife that was stuck in his head.
Seeing this, the other two trolls were stunned for a moment, then one of them let out a piercing roar and attacked even more frantically. The other took advantage of the troll's out-of-control runaway and tried to escape towards the mountain road to the side.
Seeing the troll trying to escape, Garen initially ignored it and turned back to hunt the mad, out-of-control frost troll. But just as Garen turned around, he saw a figure out of the corner of his eye that shouldn't be on that mountain road.
"Lacus?!"
Suddenly looking in the direction where the trolls were fleeing, Lux, who was originally standing on the other side watching the battle, had unknowingly walked to a place where she shouldn't have gone in order to better watch this hunt that was far more exciting than any stage play.
Seeing the frost troll charging towards her, Lux felt as if her brain had been struck by a sledgehammer. Intense panic made her try to steer the beast of burden to evade. Lux was a skilled rider. For a noble lady, good manners were paramount, and even when riding, she maintained aristocratic elegance and grace.
But now, due to extreme panic, and the fact that the Freljord's pack animals are completely different in temperament from the Demacia's horses, Lux, who wanted to escape, not only failed to escape successfully, but was thrown to the ground by the panicked pack animals.
With an injured ankle, not to mention running away, even standing up became a luxury due to the pain.
Not far away, Faan also narrowed his eyes.
Accompanied by a sound of wind breaking through the air, the body turned into a shadow and quickly approached the direction of the troll.

Chapter 114: Blood-boiling combination skills!
Looking at the frost troll rushing towards her, Lux's eyes revealed a deep fear, and then in Garen's incredulous gaze, Lux instinctively raised her hands.
Dazzling flashes of light continuously gathered in Lux's palm, and the rapidly gathering magic instantly formed a dazzling singularity. But just before it was about to explode, accompanied by the overload of magic, the light ball that had been gathered to the limit suddenly dissipated.
If Lux could receive proper training, then with her talent, it would be easy for her to blow away the panicked frost troll or to protect herself from the frost troll's attack.
But therein lay the problem—since she could remember, Lux had been constantly suppressing her magical talent. Now, when she needed to use it, her lack of experience had caused her magic to lose control and become a dud.
Looking at the troll's raised arm at a close distance, with sticky saliva hanging from its sharp fangs, Lak had no doubt that it would only take a single blow for him to turn from Lux into Lux-chan under the troll's attack.
The fear and panic that Lux had never felt before completely occupied her mind. In fear, Lux did something that no other warrior would do. She instinctively closed her eyes and waited for death to come as if she had accepted her fate.
But at this critical moment, accompanied by the sound of wind breaking through the air, the wings vibrated, and under the high-speed short-distance explosive flight, a cloud of ice dust suddenly rose around Fane.
Before Lux could react, she felt her chest sink, and then she felt her body lose its balance.
Was I knocked away? Am I dead? But...but why doesn't it hurt at all?
He raised his head in confusion, and what caught his eye was Fan, whose eyes were filled with helplessness.
Looking down at Lux in his arms, Faan said helplessly, "Although it was indeed me who invited you... why were you so close?"
"Because... because this is my first time participating in this kind of activity... I accidentally got close to you..."
Lux said this a little embarrassedly, and secretly looked at Faan's face.
From Lux's perspective, the idea of a "lower-headed swordsman" was a complete smear. All this naive girl could see was a single-handedly slaying of a giant monster that even her brother, along with a group of powerful warriors, had struggled to defeat, and then saving her in the nick of time.
While in hunting mode, Faan's mad dragon factor is constantly secreted, allowing him to more clearly sense biological activity within his range and intuitively enhance his various physical abilities. This free mad dragon factor doesn't have much of an impact on others—at most, they'll feel an inexplicable urge within their bodies, which gradually fuels a growing desire for battle.
That's why Galen decided to join the hunt.
But now, being held in Fane's arms and having taken in an excessive amount of Mad Dragon Factor, Lux could only feel her heart pounding. An inexplicable urge arose, and she stared at Faan's strong jawline. She was stunned for a moment and wanted to hug him, but her family's upbringing made her sober up quickly. However, she still couldn't help but shrink back into Faan's arms.
In fact, it is not entirely the effect of the mad dragon factor, there is also a very simple psychological effect - the suspension bridge effect.
People's physiological reactions will become particularly intense in critical moments. If there is a person of the opposite sex around at this time, it is easy to mistake this feeling for heartbeat.
Faan wasn't bad looking to begin with, and with the intense masculine aura constantly impacting his brain under the influence of the Mad Dragon Factor, Lux felt her head was foggy, and she actually felt that the troll attacking her was actually a good thing...
After gliding in the air for a circle, Faan hugged Lux up in the air, then under Lux's somewhat shy gaze, he put one arm around her hips and held her in his arms like a daughter, while the other hand tightly grasped the long sword.
"Hold me tight, the next step might be a little fast."
"Ah? Yeah! Okay!"
She was stunned for a moment, then quickly came to her senses. Lux said softly, "I won't hold Mr. Fain back!"
"Ha! That's very brave."
After hearing Lux's words, Faan also smiled. He didn't attack her, but said:
"Then let him see our exciting combo skills!"
"Eh?! What's that combo technique?!"
Lux panicked.
"You'll know when you fight!"
Faan showed a fighting spirit on his face.
"Yumi!"
"Here comes the boss!"
Suddenly, a cat jumped out from behind Faan, and Lux's eyes lit up at the sight of the cute and lively Yuumi. Yuumi, for the first time, felt the natural hunting instincts of cats, and her whole cat state was extremely excited.
“I’m the most amazing cat!!”
Opening his arms, a protective magic enveloped Faun. Powered by this magical power, he flapped his wings, bursting through the air at an unimaginable speed. His entire body transformed into a crimson afterimage, charging towards the troll.
When the troll saw Faan rushing towards him, he let out a terrified roar, then grabbed a tree beside him and smashed it towards Faan.
But at that moment, Faan, moving at high speed, displayed astonishing maneuverability. Amid Lux's roller-coaster-like screams, he drew a perfect arc through the gaps between the branches, and in the instant they crossed, he severed the troll's ankle with a single blow.
Reaching high in the sky, Faan charged towards the troll's eyes. Sensing Faan's undisguised killing intent, the troll roared, raising its head and preparing to unleash its Frost Roar.
Unfortunately, before the frost troll even raised its head, Faan patted Lux's butt and said, "Now!"
Feeling something strange in her buttocks, Lux was startled at first, but after hearing Faan's words, she quickly calmed down, and turned around and raised her hand towards the troll.
As the magic power gathered, a powerful light exploded, transforming into countless extremely dazzling rays towards the troll's face. These rays, so dazzling that even a bystander would feel a little bit, directly hit the troll's entire face, and the flash was accompanied by a slight burning pain. The roar that had not yet been uttered immediately turned into a whine and retreated backwards.
Seeing this scene, Faan also praised: "Good job! Lux!"
As he spoke, without waiting for the troll to fall, Fane locked onto the troll's head and slashed it with a knife.
laugh! ! !
Under high pressure, dark red blood gushed out from the frost troll's neck, forming a blood light nearly three meters long.

Chapter 115: It’s said that the ancient dragon-level entries are awesome.
After falling to the ground, Fane shook off the blood splattered on the knife and then put it back into the scabbard behind him.
Looking at Lux, who was so frightened that she clung to him tightly after releasing the Flash Technique, Faan patted her butt and said, "It's safe now. Don't worry, you can open your eyes now."
"Huh? Oh! Okay!"
After hearing what Fane said, Lux opened her eyes belatedly, then looked back cautiously.
After seeing the troll with half of its neck split open, his body couldn't help but tremble a few times. He closed his eyes again and relaxed for a long time. Then he mustered up the courage to carefully straighten his legs and slowly dropped the cricket pupa from Fane's arms to the ground.
Hiding beside Faan in fear, and after preparing herself mentally for a while, Lux dared to open her eyes and look at the troll whose neck was cut off.
The neck, as thick as a tree, split open from one side. It wasn't completely severed, but nearly two-thirds of it was chopped off. The broken bones were clearly visible, and the gurgling blood emitted a warm steam. A cold wind blew, and the huge head swayed from side to side before falling to the ground.
bump!
With a slightly dull sound, the corpse that was originally standing stiffly on the ground collapsed and fell to the ground with blood flowing everywhere.
Clenching her fists, Lux gasped after seeing this scene. She then looked at Faan cautiously and said, "We... won?"
"Won!"
Faan nodded, gave a thumbs-up and said, "You did a great job! Especially that flash spell, which directly took away this guy's vision. Otherwise, defeating it would have been very difficult."
Upon hearing this, a hint of excitement visibly appeared on Lux's little face - for a girl who loves fantasy, defeating such a terrifying monster is undoubtedly something she can brag about to other peers for a long time.
Especially now, not only was she defeated, but she also received Faan's affirmation. This made Lux's booted feet lift up and she laughed:
"It's all thanks to Mr. Fine. If it weren't for Mr. Fine, I would have been beaten to death by now!"
"No, for a young girl, being able to deal with such a powerful monster rationally for the first time is already a remarkable thing."
I'm not exaggerating, Lux did a really good job.
It is commendable that a person who has been pampered since childhood does not stand there waiting to die when facing a crisis for the first time, but instead tries to actively fight back.
Because when you are extremely afraid, the amygdala in the brain will also become pathologically active. As a structure related to emotions and stress responses, the neurotransmitters released by the amygdala will affect many neural areas including those that control movement, leading to muscle stiffness and difficulty moving.
For the same reason, sympathetic nervous system excitement also releases a large amount of stress hormone adrenaline. The body will also instinctively enter a combat state, mobilizing the body's energy resources to the maximum, which in turn leads to muscle tension, increased heart rate, and physical sensations such as body stiffness and loss of muscle control.
Growing up in Demacia, and as the eldest daughter of a powerful aristocratic family in the kingdom, Lux could definitely be considered to have lived a life of luxury.
When Lux's magical talent was first discovered, the Galen family's solution was to marry her to Jarvan IV, using royal power to block the pretext for the Demon Seekers' leader. This demonstrates the close connection between the Crownguard family and the Demacia royal family, the Lightshield, and their superior status.
In this situation, facing the frost trolls rushing towards her, Lux did not stand there like a frightened quail waiting to die, but was able to muster up the courage to fight back, which is quite commendable.
However, what is more important than solving the current crisis is what happens next.
Look, Garen, riding a frosthorn, quickly approached Faan. Garen's face was full of panic as he dismounted and came to Lux, looking left and right. After seeing that Lux was not injured, he breathed a sigh of relief, and then his expression immediately became serious.
"Laxana! I told you not to move, why are you moving forward? Don't you know how powerful these monsters are? If it weren't for Mr. Fain, you would probably be lying on the ground bleeding!"
Hearing her brother's harsh questioning, Lux shrank her neck, with a look of self-blame and timidity on her face.
"I...I...I saw this for the first time...I accidentally..."
Pursing her lips, Lux's words of defense died in her throat before she could even speak, facing Garen's dissatisfied gaze. This made Lux unconsciously want to avoid Garen's gaze, and she subconsciously shrank back behind Faan.
Standing aside, noticing Lux's movements, what could Faan say? He could only protect Lux with one hand and stop his brother-in-law with the other, saying:
"Calm down, Captain Galen. Lux was just frightened and hasn't recovered yet. Questioning her like this will cause her secondary psychological damage."
After hearing Faan's words, Garen's face also became complicated. He then took a deep breath, covered his face with his hands, and said self-reproachfully: "...I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Warmaster Faan, I was a little too nervous, which is why I lost my composure like this."
Meanwhile, Lux glanced at Faan, who stood between her and her brother, then looked down at the large hand that had fallen before her. For some reason, Lux subconsciously felt that even though she had been scolded, being protected like this... didn't seem so bad.
Looking back at Lux, Fane originally wanted to say a few words of comfort, but after seeing the expression on Lux's face, Fane quickly realized that something was wrong.
Even if she was naive, facing this kind of crisis and reprimand, it was impossible for Lux to still be obsessed with a man she had just met. It was even more impossible for her to be so irrational... Well, it was possible. After all, the thieving Silas simply pretended to be "I regret it!" in the plot and easily deceived Lux.
It's not uncommon to see a poor man making up a tragic story to abduct a naive and innocent girl from a rich family. It seems that the screenwriters can't think of anything a little more hardcore, for fear that the audience won't understand.
But Faan wouldn't just assume that Lux was in heat and that's why she did this.
After a little feeling, Fane discovered the reason why Lux was so moved.
I forgot to turn off the Crazy Dragon Factor.

Chapter 116 The most down-to-earth of the three sisters.
One thing that needs to be made sure of is that the Crazy Dragon Factor is not some evil thing.
Because this thing requires measurement, even in the Monster Hunter world, monsters infected with the Mad Dragon Virus can overcome the erosion of the Mad Dragon Virus and use the "ancient dragon characteristics" of the Mad Dragon Factor itself to break through the original biological limits.
In this case, for small organisms, measurement is crucial to determining whether the Crazy Dragon Factor is a factor or a virus. With controlled activity and concentration, the Crazy Dragon Factor can enhance an individual's reaction speed, perception, and neural activity as needed. Through the Crazy Dragon Factor, Fahn can even precisely manipulate individual muscle fibers, rather than simply tightening a single muscle.
As an ancient creature treasured by Lissandra, the Frost Troll does not have any special abilities, but its panel attributes are extremely high. Its high physical strength and elemental resistance make it enough to compete with Volibear's hunting lord.
In this situation, even Fan had to cheer himself up and use the Crazy Dragon Force Factor to strengthen his body's reaction and muscle energy consumption.
