Because of the cold, the mages could still use magic to keep warm, but the soldiers could only huddle up. Diao Sicai studied like this and asked them to make snow holes and build fires to keep warm, and finally relaxed a little.
There are benefits to being cold, so Diao Si used this as an excuse to ask to sleep with Lei Ji and Hao Qi. Although Diao Si didn't do much because there were female warriors and mages everywhere around him, lying on the soft and fragrant jade was still a good enjoyment.
But just when Diao Sicai was about to slowly close his eyes and sleep, the loud shouts of the soldiers on guard woke him up. When he rushed out while sorting his clothes, he realized that they were surrounded by countless reptiles.
At first, Diao Si thought that these reptiles would attack people, but after seeing their mouths and other conditions clearly, he felt relieved. The reason why these reptiles suddenly gathered here was not because of them, but because of the firelight or warmth here. .
"Don't worry, they won't move you away." Diao Si said, and then threw a small stone towards the place where the reptiles gathered. The surrounding reptiles immediately crawled away after hearing the sound.
However, just when Diao Si was about to turn around and go back, he immediately discovered that in a place not far away where the fire was slightly dim, there were some little monsters with bright eyes like kittens, catching those reptiles to eat.
There are meat-eating monsters here! A biological chain will never only have monsters at the bottom like this. These little reptile-eating monsters must also have their natural enemies, otherwise they would have become extinct long ago.
It is probably because of the special environment here and the lack of anything to eat that it has a biological chain similar to that of Earth. In fact, this is quite normal. A world without ferocious carnivorous monsters like before is abnormal.
Perhaps, it is precisely because of the existence of these powerful warriors that the ferocious carnivorous animals have long been extinct. It is because there are few human traces in this mountain that these carnivorous animals remain. This is the law of nature, and the ferocious animals on the earth are about to become extinct because of the power of humans.
After staying for a while, the sky was about to break, and as the sky got warmer, a thick layer of fog enveloped the mountains. After Diao Si used wind magic to disperse the fog, the mages from the wind sect also learned to disperse the dense fog.
But this is not effective in the long term, because the entire environment is still very cold, and the warm air blowing in will definitely produce fog, so Diao Si first asked everyone to take a rest there, and he personally checked the soldiers who suffered from altitude sickness.
It turns out that Mida is also a member of this patient group, including one of Oso's former guards, and her condition is a bit serious. Fortunately, Diao Si is very experienced in casting spells and treatments. After he treated her one by one, those The soldier's condition quickly improved, and the guard sincerely thanked Diao Si.
Make progress every day. Diao Si did not force these people to accept him, but he believed that as long as he sincerely wanted to do this well, these people would accept it sooner or later.
Just when Diao Si was studying the map of this area and everyone was still chatting familiarly with each other, Lei Ji suddenly threw a stone here again. Only then did Diao Si know what problem she had discovered, so she rushed over immediately.
They are the footprints of some unknown monsters. From the analysis of the size and depth of the footprints, it seems that the size of this unknown monster may be close to the size of a person, and it is not one, but many, and a large group of them have approached here.
"Lei Ji, you should be honest and stay with everyone, be careful of some monster taking it away!" Diao Si criticized Rei Ji, then pointed to a valley and motioned for everyone to go there.
After Lei Ji and the others left, Diao Si took a special look at the direction of the footprints. These creatures seemed to live in some low-lying places, and they all moved in groups. If it weren't for the thick fog, they would have been wasted. After spending so much time, Diao Si really wanted to drift over and have a look.
After walking like this for a while, when they were about to reach the location of a plundering tribe on the map, Diao Si asked everyone to stop in a hidden place to rest, and then used his refraction magic to observe the situation there.
The thick fog was still there, but by dispelling it, Diao Si could see a little bit of the situation. In this way, he quickly discovered some villages and tribes with wooden houses, but he couldn't find a single person at all.
Could it be that those people had discovered them and were hiding? This is unlikely, because Diao Si and the others are still quite far away from there, so even if they want to ambush, they don't have to do it so early.
What's going on? Because the thick fog was still there, Diao Si was not too sure about the situation there. After all, this was not his territory, and his team had already suffered a lot due to altitude sickness.
"Emperor, with a team as strong as ours, do we still need to worry about their bandits and bandits? Just kill them all." The one who spoke was Mida. This fat guy was always so impulsive and could not hold his breath at all.
"You'd better take care of yourself first. We don't know the situation here at all. The information given to us by the generals in Northern Xinjiang was only a few months ago. There are still scuffles in the north and there are often strong teams heading south. You How do you know the enemies there will be easy to deal with?"
After Diao Si's words, Mida said nothing more, but she picked up the two big axes and waved them hard twice to show that her physical condition was still okay.
Diao Si looked at the map that was also provided by the generals of Northern Xinjiang. He found that their current location was not easily ambushed. Even if they were discovered by the enemy, it would not be easy to use the natural conditions here to deal with them.
The position of that tribe is backed by mountains on three sides. It is condescending and has very good defensive conditions. Moreover, the small woods in front are easy to ambush and deploy strategies.
"Eat something and take a rest. We will take action later. Everyone must pay attention to my orders and never act without permission." After Diao Si said this, he glanced at Lei Ji deliberately.
Everyone was very happy when they heard the news of the attack, because they had suffered a lot here and accumulated a lot of anger, and they all wanted to find something to vent their anger.
In order to ensure that this operation could be completed smoothly, Diao Si also deployed his people in batches. He planned to secretly surround the tribe, and then slowly lure the people there to hunt and kill them. Of course, he had to adapt to the situation as he didn't know the enemy situation there yet.
It took a while for Diao Si's team to reach the designated location. Then he led several powerful mixed crystal warriors and gradually approached the wooden houses.
However, it was very strange that Diao Si could not hear any sound at all as he gradually approached. There must be many people living in so many houses. How could there be no sound at all
Abnormal, so abnormal, but Diao Si has been observing this place for a long time. He has looked at the narrow valleys around here several times. There is no possibility of an ambush. So what happened to the people here? Did they already know that an enemy was approaching, so they were hiding in the house
Just when Diao Si was about to set those houses on fire and force the people inside to come out, a huge flying object suddenly passed by in the sky. Its shadow scratched like this, and the mixed crystal warriors squatted down vigilantly.
Then Diao Si immediately used refraction to observe the flying thing, but it could no longer be found. It must have flown to the other side of the mountain above.
Now Diao Si changed his mind again. There might be monsters here, and the people there were hiding from them instead of them. If he set a fire, wouldn't he be exposed
It wasn't until he got into a house that Diao Si realized that there was no one in the house at all, and it wasn't just now. Judging from the furnishings and other conditions, it seemed that it had been a while.
"There is no one here." Diao Si said this, and the mixed crystal warriors relaxed their vigilance. Then after the order was passed down, the warriors and mages gathered around, discussing why the people here were missing. .
In the eyes of these people, the reason why the people here disappeared was because they were scared away or killed by other tribes. In fact, this is normal, but there is another reason that they did not mention, which is the black shadow that just passed by. There are powerful creatures living here, such as the dragons who once hurt Hao Qi. (To be continued)
