In the snowstorm.
Sauron slowly flew up with the petite figure of Princess Anna in his arms. She seemed to be a little excited, but just as she opened her mouth, a mouthful of wind and snow was poured into her face, and her face turned red. Only those who have personally experienced strong winds, storms, and typhoons will understand how it feels to be exposed to the wild winds of nature after losing cover, which is somewhat taboo even for wizards.
In fact, Sauron's expression was also slightly excited, because flying is always full of beautiful desires.
Their figures rose little by little, and gradually flew to a height of hundreds of meters. This height is absolutely not enjoyable, because the cold wind has become more bitter without the cover of the mountains. The flying speed is about 30 feet to 120 feet, which is about 10 meters per second to 40 meters per second. Basically, very few people can exceed this speed range, because no matter how fast the speed is, the human body cannot bear it, especially a relatively weak physique like a wizard.
In Sauron's memory, there is only one spell that can achieve supersonic flight!
The name seems to be 'spiritual body flight', a rare high-level spell that is difficult to learn. After casting the spell, it will transform itself into a spiritual body form, unable to attack and cast spells, but it can fly at a speed exceeding the speed of sound . Since he has not mastered the specialty of [Swift Flight], and has just learned the flying technique, Sauron's flying speed is actually only about 10 meters per second. It is said that someone has achieved a flying speed of more than 100 meters per second, but it takes a lot of time It is supported by the feat, and must be blessed with protection spells, because this is equivalent to half the speed of a jetliner.
Flying is not as safe as you think.
Because what wizards are most afraid of is a 'dispelling magic' thrown by the other party. If you successfully dispel the effect of the flying spell, you will fly as high and gracefully as you fly, and you will be as embarrassing and miserable as you fall.
This is no joke!
High-altitude spellcasting requires a very powerful basic skill [Concentration] to support it, because casting spells itself requires concentration. If you are dispelled of the flying spell, you cannot cast spells during a high-speed fall, or you have not prepared other spells to deal with the fall. Then the fate waiting for you is to be smashed into meatloaf, even if you are the master, you will be thrown to death alive. That's why wizards like to study teleportation spells, and don't like to devote energy to flying spells.
Some high-level wizards who like to fly only solidify special spells, such as feather wings and dragon wings. It is possible to be dumbfounded. Essentially speaking, the flying technique is definitely not as chic and easy as teleportation and flashing. In the plot, there are very few aboriginal wizards who fly, and Gloria would rather walk than fly, and she also has such worries subconsciously.
The duration of the flying spell is calculated in minutes.
Sauron's spell strength is not high, with a career level of 6 and an intelligence bonus of 5, which is roughly 11 points of spell power. It can support 11 minutes of flying, and the flying distance is about 6000 meters. Sauron's wizard career level is 6, and he has 2 third-ring spell slots, which together can fly a distance of 12 kilometers.
If this distance is used to climb over the mountain, it is undoubtedly very sufficient.
There was a strange cry in the sky.
Sauron seemed to have heard the voice of the Frost Wyvern. He hurriedly lowered his altitude a bit, then gestured to silence Princess Anna in his arms, and slowly flew over at a low altitude. Dealing with the Frost Wyvern in the air is completely courting death. There should not be only one or two groups of pterosaurs in this area. The flying technique is very fast in a straight line, and the ascent and descent are only half the speed. Sauron flew over quietly, and soon the vision in front of him gradually widened.
Over the mountains is a dense forest, very dense snow and ice forest.
Undoubtedly, Sauron breathed a sigh of relief, quickly lowered his altitude and slowed down his flight, and then landed after entering the dense forest.
Definitely still have to go in the back.
But now the road is much easier. It took him half a day to walk through the dense forest with Princess Anna, and gradually entered the area of human activities.
"Here. Put this on."
Sauron took out a cloak, handed it to Princess Anna, and said in a deep voice, "Don't talk too much on the road, and don't take off the cloak. The chosen ones of the gods are very difficult to deal with, maybe they have their eyeliner here too."
Princess Anna nodded slightly, and then put on the cloak.
In fact, this place is already Arendelle's territory, but no one can guarantee that there will be no tormentor believers here. As long as there is a definite goal, the legendary wizard can come here in a short time. Sauron was not sure about Arendelle's situation. The Chosen of the Gods was very powerful, and he didn't know if the Eldest Princess could handle it. The most appropriate way now is to go forward in disguise and take a look at the changes in Arendelle by the way. If there is no big move, it should be safe.
After all, according to Sauron's past memories, nothing big happened in the Ice and Snow Kingdom!
The two walked along the snow all the way.
They slept in the wilderness for one night, and then continued for dozens of kilometers, finally seeing the outline of a town.
"This is the town of Talador." Princess Anna recalled, and whispered: "Continuing forward, you will be close to the sea. This town seems to be managed by a baron. I have forgotten the exact name."
There are many towns under the Kingdom of Arendelle, mainly because the area of cultivated land is not comparable to that of the southern region.
Towns are generally distributed here, and the number of large cities is less than one-fifth of that in the south, but small villages are very rare, mainly because it is difficult to maintain villages in the country of ice and snow, and the monsters here are generally difficult to deal with. It could be seen that something must have happened in the kingdom of Arendelle, because Sauron saw guards on guard and a cross erected outside the town.
cross.
This is a special sign.
It does not have special religious significance as in the previous life, but represents a kind of punishment. Only two kinds of punishments often use the cross. The first is nailed to the cross, and the second is the familiar fire. Because these two punishments are too cruel, they are rarely used by the kingdom. The most common punishments are beheading and hanging. Ordinary punishments are either fines and hard labor, or relatively severe whippings, at most to the point of beheading.
The cross is mainly used to punish the fallen, and the stake is most commonly used to punish believers of evil gods.
"It looks like something really happened."
Sauron glanced at the cross from a distance. The blood dripping on it had already frozen into ice. It was estimated that someone had been crucified on it.
He turned around and looked at Princess Anna next to him, and whispered, "Follow me, don't talk."
The guards in the town are heavily guarded.
Sauron led Princess Anna forward bit by bit. Suddenly, there seemed to be a commotion beside him, and all the people around him retreated in awe. The commotion here aroused the guard's idea. A security captain who looked like a big man from the north came over. He shouted loudly and waved the whip in his hand. But then his expression was very ugly, his eyes were full of awe and he took a step back, and he slightly bowed his head to show his humility.
What appeared was a woman.
A woman who looks a bit evil, with a veil on her face, her pupils are quite seductive, her outline is a bit like that of an Indian woman, her hair is tied into small braids, and there are many fragmentary decorations on it. This woman is wearing a black robe with a skull mark on the front. This mark cannot be used indiscriminately. She is not a priest of the death god system. If she dares to use this mark, it will cause other troubles. But in fact, this woman is not a priest of the death pantheon, but a priest of another god.
On her chest is an emblem against a blood-red background with traces of bones and black antlers.
This is a priest of [Goddess of Misfortune]!
There are two goddesses in the gods, you must pay attention to them, the first is the goddess of luck, and the second is the goddess of misfortune. Whether you believe in these two goddesses or not, it is best to show corresponding awe when meeting their priests. Because these two goddesses are notoriously difficult to deal with, and their personality preferences are difficult to judge, but their religious needs for believers are not high.
Inside the gods of the whole world.
The goddesses of luck and fortune have the fewest clerics, because they are one of the two gods most familiar and frequently mentioned by mortals, regardless of whether there are clerics to expand their beliefs.
Even Sauron has prayed to the goddess of luck for luck, which shows how special their existence is.
The Goddess of Doom is an evil and willful goddess. Basically, her priests will not be any better, because there are very few priests in the first place, and almost none of the priests of the Goddess of Fortune is a simple character. Although they can't bring you good luck, they can make you entangled by bad luck.
This is no joke!
The clerics of the goddess of fortune have magic spells to reduce luck, which can make you unlucky for a long time.
The world is more in awe of this goddess.
Sauron was obviously also quite jealous of the priest of the goddess, so when she passed by, he quickly pulled Princess Anna to bend slightly to show respect.
No one wants to be plagued by bad luck!
This was how things should have gone. The priest of the Goddess of Misfortune walked over directly. No one dared to stop her, but she stopped in front of Sauron. The woman stared at him with strange eyes, then slowly spread her hands, with an emblem engraved with antlers and white bones on her palms, and said slowly: "The goddess needs you to dedicate to her!..."
The people around gave way in a big circle.
Sauron's expression was a little stiff, because this move was a bit like he was blackmailed, and he had to come up with something. Princess Anna gently tugged at the corner of his clothes, and Sauron quickly took out more than a dozen Kindlers without much hesitation, then carefully placed them in the opponent's palm and said: "I humbly offer a sacrifice, may the goddess of fortune watch against my enemies."
