This terrifying forest fire was largely due to the extreme activity of the attribute magic power in the air.
The active fire element made the air unprecedentedly dry.
At the same time,
In the dry forest, the all-consuming flames created a terrifying high temperature.
This terrifying high temperature caused the forest to dry out and the moisture to evaporate completely even before the fire spread, turning the expansive forest into dry fuel, leading to a phenomenon of terrifying combustion explosion.
In this flourishing forest land, under such conditions, everything became an accelerant for the flames.
Like a chain reaction in a nuclear bomb, the frightening fire spread at a terrifying subsonic speed, a hundred or a thousand times more terrible than the impact of a bomb explosion.
Under this natural power, even with Austin's strength and the full power of the Law of Water, he could only barely protect a radius one or two miles around the stronghold, but the vast fields further afield would likely become scorched earth, taking years to recover.
Faced with such a wildfire, Austin, who failed to save it, initially intended to give up.
But when he flew back to the tribe, and saw the white young dragons flying in the sky, he suddenly thought of something.
Why can water put out fire?
The high school physics textbook explained that it was because water absorbs a lot of heat when it evaporates, significantly reducing the temperature in the flames.
At the same time, water isolates fuel from air, and in the absence of oxygen, the burning reaction naturally cannot occur.
In this, two factors played a very important role.
One is temperature, the other is oxygen.
But in this forest fire disaster that swept through everything, in that sky-high fire that had swallowed countless patches of forest trees, the heat had increased by an unknown number of times like a snowball.
The rainwater from Austin's previous talent magic evaporated in just a moment, having little effect in the face of this vast sea of fire.
The water vapor evaporated into the air even became a fuel for the towering fire!
This was why Austin's talent magic couldn't resist nature's power.
"Yes, temperature!"
Austin suddenly awakened.
His past life experiences shackled his thoughts.
If water couldn't extinguish this terrifying forest fire, then what about a frost cold current?
Tree branches and leaves have an ignition point.
The forest fire, ignited from who knows how far, had engulfed heat along the way, swelling like a snowball to an unbelievable level.
The massive heat caused vast swathes of forest to wither at a visible rate.
The temperature in the air reached nearly the ignition point.
Then, the flame rushing from behind swept over, immediately burning intensely, even causing air expansion and explosion, the flames spreading at a terrifying subsonic speed, thereby resulting in a combustion explosion phenomenon.
In the face of such an all-consuming sea of fire, there was no way to resist unless the entire forest was deluged with water.
But if water didn't work, it didn't mean other methods wouldn't.
What if the temperature could be lowered below the ignition point?
In the modern world of the past life, due to cost and various technical issues, this theoretical solution lacked practical operational space.
But this world was different.
With this thought, Austin turned his body and decided to give it a try.
He flew at lightning speed away from the Dragon Nest Division's territory, arriving above the sea of fire in the forest; by then, the terrifying wildfire, assisted by wind-fueled flames and flame-driven wind, had reached less than ten miles from the Dragon Nest Division's territory!
Gazing at the rapidly approaching sea of fire.
Austin opened his mouth wide, both upper and lower jaws gaping.
Azure light vibrated in the void, the Frost Law within him activating.
Ice Breath!!!
A visibly ice-blue cold current spewed from his mouth, like a cascading mountain flood waterfall.
Crunch crunch...
The cold breath swept over, like an icy snowstorm, freezing the forest land in white ice chunks as if plunging it into a winter realm instantly!
This Ice Breath was evidently not just frost elements.
The power of the Law of Water and the Law of Wind was intertwined at this moment.
The water element in the icy cold current transformed into thick ice chunks, covering everything—land, trees, stones, soil—with a thick layer of ice, as if encapsulating the whole world in frost.
Austin turned his neck, continuing to unleash the cold current breath sweeping ahead.
With the rushing cold current, the forest land ahead sank into thick ice at a speed visible to the naked eye, as if even space got frozen, forming a massive icy defense line on the land ahead like a frozen picture!
And now,
The fire sea rushing like a tsunami from afar finally roared in!
Where the fire's edge reached, it was invincible!
Yet, when the surging fierce flames reached the vast snowy boundary,
it was like a charging cavalry hitting into an iron-cast city wall!
Blocked!
On that icy defense line, all tree fuel was covered with a thick layer of ice.
Within the ice layer, there was no possibility of burning.
The immense heat amassed by the fire sea was substantially neutralized by the thick ice layer.
The rigid ice layer absorbed a tremendous amount of heat, turning into a vast amount of water.
The water further absorbed the extensive heat within the flames, evaporating into steam.
Until the water completely evaporated from the melted ice, the trees soaked in water couldn't become fuel for burning.
On this massive icy defense line, the indiscriminate fire sea finally hit an immovable obstacle.
"Succeeded!"
Seeing the fire front held back and unable to advance beyond the icy defense line, the wood originally burning intensely about to exhaust, the fierce fire began to wane.
Austin's eyes lit up.
The forest fire front showed a huge gap.
And, due to the pervasive frost cold current, the combustion explosion phenomenon suffered severe setbacks, and the fire spreading rate beyond the icy defense line slowed down.
Once the fire sweeping speed slowed down,
this meant Austin could leisurely contain and eliminate the surrounding fires outside the Dragon Nest Territory!
Moreover, the consumption of this frost cold current was evidently much less than the Water Dragon Magic previously invoked, and its effect was greater.
Next, Austin acted as a frost generator.
Line after line of icy defense rose outside the Dragon Nest Division's territory, keeping the forest fires away.
Meanwhile, the white young dragons within the tribe didn't escape Austin's grasp, being dispatched to help fight the fire.
