Chapter 305 The Sound of Wails
Back in the ice-brick hut, Alice asked her master Bing Zhixie for a small notebook and a pen, and happily wrote in her diary while resting on the small bag.
Bing Zhixie often does some small magic experiments and records the results in notebooks, so he always buys small notebooks when traveling.
Alice suddenly said: "Master, I don’t know the name of that monster just now. Maybe others don’t know it either, so why don’t we give it a name?"
Bingzhi Xie glanced at her, then lowered his head to do his own thing, and said: "You can do it yourself."
"Hmm..." Alice fiddled with the quill on her chin, thought for a while and said: "It has such a big mouth, let's call it a big-mouth monster."
"Call it the Devourer. "Bing Zhixie said: "Its ability seems to be able to swallow monsters directly."
Alice smiled happily: "Okay, just call it. Devourer." He took the pen and started writing in the notebook and read: "Today, Master and I found the body of a big monster. Master named it Devourer because... Hey, Master, what day is it today? What day is it? "
Bing Zhixie ignored Alice's question, but looked at it carefully with a piece of ice crystal. This white and bluish thing that looks like ice crystals is a piece of tooth he knocked out from the mouth of the monster just now, the Devourer. He looked at it for a while, put it in the package, and pondered: "What can kill such a monster? With the ability of such a monster, even if it is seriously injured, it is not easy to kill it. Right. Is it a human?”
Although the Holy Snow Mountain Range is an inaccessible place, there are still many adventurers, explorers and scholars who are willing to explore the mountains and dare to venture into the depths of the mountains. It must be someone with some strength. If they were monsters, it wouldn't be surprising. Snow Tyrannosaurus and mutated prehistoric giant elephants. Although these two monsters are not on the same level, they are undoubtedly rare and powerful monsters.
After a while, Bing Zhixie noticed that Alice had stopped talking. Turning around, she found that she had huddled up and fell asleep wrapped in a leather blanket...
Two days later in the afternoon , Alice stood on the top of a hill, looking at the snowy scene in the distance: " The weather is really nice today.”
Although I have long been tired of seeing the beautiful scenery of snow these days, days without wind and snow are not often seen in the Arctic, let alone in the mountains. , facing nature, I feel too small.
Bing Zhixie ignored Alice who ran down the rocky mountain, stepped lightly on the snow, leaving only shallow footprints, and walked straight forward. He looked ahead with his eyes and said to himself: "According to Winnie's map, it's right ahead. There are three huge mountains, one of which looks like a snow eagle, so it shouldn't be wrong."
Only As far as the eye could see, three large hazy shadows loomed in front. The peaks in the Holy Snow Mountain Range are already extremely huge, but compared to those three mountains, they can really make people look up and sigh.
"Master, master." Alice ran over as if she was swimming in the snow: "Is the front where the Shuiyun Stream mentioned on the map is located?" She also saw the three mountains in the distance.
"Be careful of snow pits and don't run around." Bing Zhixie pulled her up from the snow and gave her a rather unhappy look.
Alice stuck out her tongue: "I understand, Master."
The mountains are not filled with deep snow everywhere. Walking on the ridge, you can still see exposed snow. rock. For the sake of safety, Bing Zhixie took this path, but the snow-capped mountains were extremely steep and there was no soil. No one knew what it would be like if he stepped on it next.
"Can you arrive today?" Alice couldn't bear the loneliness and asked again.
Bing Zhixie said: "If we don't set up camp, we should be able to arrive tonight."
"Then let's light a fire quickly and eat, and then walk over at once." Alice smiled happily, and suddenly sighed softly He shouted: "It would be great if Ixusen was here. She must have never been to the Ten Forbidden Lands. Many, many people have never been to those places. For some people, the Ten Forbidden Lands are like a dream."
Bing Zhixie stopped, looked at the mountains in the distance, and said after a while: "It is indeed a dream."
It was Bing Zhixie who made the fire and cooked, while Alice was working hard on her fists and kicks not far away.
The food we ate was very simple, a little dehydrated shiitake mushrooms and dried meat that was frozen harder than rocks. The portion was not very large, because there was not much food left. They haven't encountered wild beasts or monsters in the past two days. If they can't encounter them again, Bing Zhixie will have to think of other ways.
In fact, it's still very early before it's really late to have dinner, but it gets dark very quickly in the Arctic, and it will get dark around four o'clock.
Bing Zhixie rarely talks while eating, but Alice is just the opposite, chattering endlessly while eating. After a while, I complained that I was tired of the food.
Alice suddenly asked: "Master, will Shuiyun Stream be dangerous?"
"What do you think?"
Alice said: " My brother went to the Forest of Warcraft, the palace, and many of the powerful guards from the academy.”
"Your brother went to the Forest of Warcraft? Is he the prince?" Bing Zhixie was slightly surprised. When he was in the imperial capital of Debilis, usually things in the palace would quickly be discussed by people in the streets, but he had never heard of this matter. However, he also understood what was going on. He must be the prince of the Demon Moon Empire. If his whereabouts in other places were known to others, the consequences would be unimaginable. "Well, he is very brave." Alice said with a proud smile: "I didn't know where he went, but I overheard my mother talking about it. I heard from the guards that in the Forest of Warcraft, there are all kinds of All kinds of distantly related dragons and ferocious monsters are everywhere. Big guys like the Ironback Dragon and the Spinosaurus are just minions there, isn’t it, Master?”
Bing Zhixie shook his head: "I have never been to the Forest of Warcraft, I don't know. There are many storybooks, novels and the like about the rumors of the ten forbidden areas. Rumor has it that those things usually contain exaggerated elements, so I can’t believe it.”
“Ah, that’s it!” Alice was obviously disappointed.
Bing Zhixie saw her expression in his eyes and added: "The information on the top ten forbidden areas is confidential information of various governments. Those who go on expeditions are usually people from the imperial organization. These Information will not be disclosed to the world easily. Even if there are some powerful organizations and mercenaries who have explored it, they will not tell everyone.”
He paused and continued: "However, the Forest of Warcraft is a forbidden place visited by adventurers from all over the world. Although the information they collect is rarely disclosed, there are still some organized guilds. I remember There is a book called "The Lost Forest", which records the conditions of the more famous forests in the world, including the description of the Forest of Warcraft."
Alice nodded: "I've read that book. It was the Palace Mage. Mr. Mordo Chiweisse asked me to read it. The records about the Forest of Warcraft in it are not even five pages long. I can't read it at all. Not much."
Bing Zhixie has heard of Modo Chiweise, who is also a very famous person in the magic union. He is the current royal mentor of the Demon Moon Empire. When he was in Debiles, Bing Zhixie heard a lot of rumors about him, one of which was that he was the loser in the competition with Chilam for the position of dean of Culantin College.
Bing Zhixie smiled softly and said: "It seems that you have a good teacher, who is not only good at magic. You may not find this book interesting now, but in the future if you want to do your best for your country, If so, this book is very important. It contains a lot of local customs and obscure geographical conditions."
Alice thought for a moment and recalled the contents of the book: "Really! I only thought of it as a storybook at the time. Look, I didn't notice this." Of course she knew what Bing Zhixie meant. Although the Demon Moon Empire may never invade those countries and places, preparation for war is still essential.
Bingzhi smiled evilly and said: "A conscientious palace tutor will not let you read a random story book. The book he lets you read must have his intention and painstaking efforts. Being a palace tutor is by no means an easy task. He must have extremely rich experience in this matter.”
Alice couldn’t bear it. Jin You almost apologized: "I used to dislike him the most. He always asked me to read books I didn't like and do things I didn't like to do. It turns out..."
Suddenly, at this time, the sky There was a mournful bird call, the sound was extremely loud and clear, interrupting the conversation between the two.
The Holy Snow Mountain Range is a lifeless place, and I haven’t heard the sound of living creatures for a long time. Both of them raised their heads and looked at the sky, carefully looking for the bird.
"Where is the bird? Why didn't you see it?" Alice was so concerned, probably because she wanted Bing Zhixie to kill the bird and roast it for a change.
Another mournful cry sounded. Bing Zhixie squinted his eyes and looked at the vast sky carefully. After searching for a while, he finally found the bird. I saw a small white dot like a grain of rice moving slowly in the very high sky. If Bing Zhixie's eyes weren't good, I wouldn't have been able to see this white bird against the background of the same color as the sky and the earth.
"You stay here." Bing Zhixie only said one sentence, and then chased the bird with the wind element. It seemed that he himself didn't want to let go of this delicious bite.
I took a few steps in vain and flew for a while, but I didn't see the distance between the two getting closer at all. Bing Zhixie sped up and rushed towards the bird. But after a while, the bird finally disappeared from his sight and could not be found.
Bing Zhixie stopped in the air, frowned and said: "So fast! I chased with all my strength, but he got rid of me so quickly. There is no bird in this world that can be faster than me. I'm afraid not much..."
Back to the camp. Alice looked around at Bing Zhixie's hands: "Master, where are the birds?"
"Let it run away." Bing Zhixie squatted in front of the pot and ate the dried meat he fried.
“Run away?” Alice couldn’t believe it.
Bingzhixie said: "That bird is very fast, and my flying magic can't catch up with it."
Alice was a little disappointed and said: "Master, then you should summon the dragon to chase it. Ah. Your Emperor Dragon is so fast, he can barely catch up."
Bing Zhixie smiled slightly and remained silent.
Using the Emperor Dragon to catch a bird is like asking a warrior to wear heavy armor and challenge a five-year-old child. If others knew about this, they would probably laugh out loud. Even if Bing Zhixie didn't care about other people's opinions, he would never let Long catch the bird.
With some frustration, Alice started eating fried pork jerky again...
