Chapter 182 Forest Sea and Snowfield
The starry night and the clouds dispersed, Bing Zhixie looked up at the sky, finally determined the direction, called Alice and Ishuson and set off on the night journey. There were stars and snow, but the night was still dark. Alice followed Bing Zhixie with a torch, while Ishuson walked at the back.
The snow is very deep, and sometimes it is several meters deep. People cannot walk on it. Once they walk, they will fall into a big hole, and even their heads can be submerged. If they really want to walk, they can only Swimming in the snow. But luckily there was Bing Zhixie. Where he walked, the soft snow was tamped down and formed into thick ice. In addition, the top layer of snow was non-slip, making it much easier to walk.
Alice held the torch and kept looking around. She was not observing whether there was any danger around her, but looking at the small firefly moths that found cold white light, like fireflies. Those little bugs flying among the pine forests are so beautiful and magical, as if they are in a dream world.
Ixusen is not a kid carrying his luggage. The pine forest is not as peaceful as this calm snowy night. Although there are very few monsters, there are some monsters that have lived in cold areas all year round.
Bing Zhixie also noticed this. The pine trees here are densely packed, but there is still such thick snow under the trees. It is impossible for the vast and cold cedar forest area not to have monsters infested, so the three of them did not walk very fast. .
"Master, master."
"Huh?"
"How long do you think we have to walk in the forest and snowy fields?" Alice asked.
Bing Zhixie said: "Looking at the map, at our current speed, we won't be able to get out for more than a month. It is estimated that it will be almost the beginning of spring when we get out."
"Will the snow stop at the beginning of spring?" Alice asked again.
"Probably not." The person who answered this time was Ishuson from behind: "We are heading north now. The farther north we go, the colder it gets, and it is not so easy to see spring."
Alice changed her hand to hold the torch, and brought her hand close to the torch to warm it: "What a beautiful snow scene. , I want to watch it for a while. Hey, Ishuson, do you think we are taking an adventure?"
"Of course. If you like this, you can go to the Adventure Guild. A lot of adventurous people get together and travel around the world," Ishuson said.
"Adventure Guild!" Alice sighed: "Ah! It sounds fun. Master Master, you said we are out, do you want to go to the Adventure Guild?"
Bing Zhixie suddenly stopped and said, "If anything happens, I'll leave it to you." After saying that, he had already floated to the top of the tree.
Daggers and bucklers were held in their hands, and the torches were thrown aside. Ishuson also took out a bow and arrow, and there was a spear tied to the left side of his body.
The night was still so quiet. Alice turned on the magic circle painted on the corner of her clothes. There was also a piece of aqua-blue crystal embedded in it, which emitted a faint blue light. Ishusen became like this. .
No magical beasts were seen in the woods, but these days they have learned that most of the magical beasts here like to hide under the snow, waiting for opportunities to sneak up on their prey.
"Is it a snow wolf, or..." Alice was fully prepared to fight, moving forward bit by bit.
Several snow-white figures sprang out from the snow, and they were indeed snow wolves.
Ishu Sen’s arrow was loosened and he had already shot it.
Alice fell sideways and escaped the snow wolf's surprise attack, and soon fought with them.
Bing Zhixie watched from the top of the tree. Since leaving Anmosidu, he has not taken action in any battle. He has completely left it to Alice to deal with it. In terms of combat experience, She has accumulated a few likes. Of course, this is just the beginning of training her. The guards in the city are all people who have experienced thousands of battles. If she wants to reach the level of the guards, Alice still has a long way to go.
A low roar sounded from the forest. During the battle, Alice and Ishuson both increased their vigilance, always paying attention to the place where the sound came from.
Not long after, a snow wolf with red eyes slowly walked over step by step. When he got close, he heard a wolf roar and his body suddenly changed, turning into a tall snow werewolf.
"Snow Werewolf! Sure enough, it's here, Alice, be careful." Ishuson had already put away his bow, swung his spear and jumped up to attack the Snow Werewolf.
The spear stabbed the Snow Werewolf's shoulder, but Ishuson was slapped far away by the Snow Werewolf's palm and rolled into the deep snow.
The snow werewolf stared at Alice who was still killing its companions, kicked its upright legs in the snow, and swung its sharp wolf claw towards Alice's head.
With a 'bang' sound, the silver shield was scattered like pieces of paper. Alliston felt her arms were numbed by the shock, but she took advantage of the momentum and rolled away. I saw the wind sickle swung out from its claws, cutting into the pine branch, and a big mouth was immediately cut open.
Ihuson jumped up from the snow, drew his bow again and shot at the snow werewolf. Alice also dodged the Snow Werewolf's attack, chanting elemental magic words in her mouth, and spread a layer of water on the snow.
The weather in this Linhai Snowfield is extremely cold, about 10 to 20 degrees below zero. The water turns into ice as soon as it condenses, and it soon becomes a 'weapon' that hinders the Snow Werewolf's attack. Seeing that Alice's fighting style has gradually matured, she no longer stands there and utters magic words like she did at the beginning.
Under the cover of Ishuson's mobile shooting, Alice kept simply accumulating ice formed by the water element and harassing attacks. No matter how powerful it is, it is difficult to hurt them.
Ishuson shot many of the remaining little snow wolves to death, leaving only one snow wolf trapped between the two men who was still struggling.
The Snow Werewolf's attack methods are not limited to these. It can also use magic and snow traps. But every time before its magic could be used, it was interrupted by magic arrows. This repeated several times, which made it so angry that it could only scream and jump wildly, but no matter what it did, it couldn't hit them.
Human intelligence must be much stronger than ordinary monsters. Alice rolled around and started to pour water on the snow werewolf. The ice formed greatly slowed down the Snow Werewolf's movement speed. Seeing that if it continued like this, the Snow Werewolf was bound to die, suddenly several sharp darts struck the Snow Werewolf with the sound of wind and nailed him directly.
Bing Zhixie looked in the direction from which the dart was flying: "Who is it?"
A woman wearing tight-fitting women's clothing walked out, followed closely by Qiba. personal.
Because Bing Zhixie was afraid of meeting outsiders at any time, she always wore a wig to dress up, and would fall to the ground when she saw anyone coming.
Alice did not relax her vigilance just because they were people. Meeting these people in the wilderness in the middle of the night, who knew whether they were good or bad.
"Don't be nervous, don't be nervous." A young man in his twenties or fives came forward: "We were camping nearby and heard the sound of fighting here, so we came to take a look. There is no harm. . ”
Bing Zhixie’s eyes were fixed on the woman. She was the one who threw the dart just now, and she still had a few unthrown darts in her hand. This woman looks very familiar to him, he must have seen her before. After thinking for a while, Bing Zhixie remembered that this woman was the woman who enthusiastically asked the child to sit down and drink juice when he asked the child to inquire about Rost's whereabouts at the Anmosi Restaurant. He wondered why she Will it appear here? Could it be related to myself?
In addition to this woman, the man next to the woman in the tavern was also among these people. He was looking at Alice and the centaur Ishuson.
“Alice.” Bing Zhixie shouted. There were many people named Alice in the world, and he was not worried about being recognized because of this.
Alice then relaxed her guard and returned to Bing Zhixie with Ixuson.
The twenty-four or five-year-old young man smiled and said: "This little brother must be the leader. My name is Jack, I am the leader of our 'Treasure Adventure Group' and also my 'Black Mercenary Group' "Captain". "
"Hello." Bing Zhixie just responded without announcing his family name like him.
Jack didn't care too much. People always have reservations when meeting strangers outside, so he asked: "How come you two...three people are in the 'Lin Hai Xue Yuan'? This is a dangerous place. Don’t you know?”
Bing Zhixie didn’t say anything, but Alice said: “Aren’t you also a few people, why are you here?”
"Us?" Jack smiled: "At least there are more of us, and we are older than you. We are adults and you are children. This is different." He meant that their group was stronger.
Alice snorted.
"You are not driving at night, are you?" The dart woman spoke: "Are you really driving at night?"
Bing Zhixie and the other three did not say anything.
Jack said: "Oh, I told you not to be too nervous, we don't mean any harm."
Bingzhi smiled evilly: "We are not nervous, we just want to see what you want to say."
"It's nothing. If you don't mind, our camp is over there, and we have a good campground. Beer." Jack said: "It's not a smart idea to drive here at night."
The other petite woman said: "Hey, leader, let him go. Will you come to our camp..."
"It's okay." Jack smiled: "It's important to be on guard against others, but you are in the wild and it is impossible not to come into contact with anyone, and sometimes you have to interact with each other. Help, isn't it? How about it, little brother?"
Bing Zhixie thought for a while, glanced at Alice, and then saw that there seemed to be soldiers in their team, and he readily agreed.
