For the rest of the day, the four of them walked along the rugged uphill road.
Sure enough, as Shura said, ice cave worms are small monsters on the road, and they have encountered many along the way. They beat and beat, at least they killed nearly thirty of them, before they reached a cave facing the cliff at the top of the mountain. It was already late at night, so Shura decided to rest until the sky brightened before moving on.
Entering the cave, the ghost fox took out another treasure, the "campfire branch". The area within the circle is designated as a safe rest area.
Only then did Wit know that besides the evolutionary ability of the Blood Raven itself, there are so many treasures in this world, and they know everything about them and know how to obtain and use them.
Considering that everyone needs to eat in addition to rest, the ghost fox dug out for a long time from his luggage bag like a treasure chest, and found a lot of dried black dragon meat and clear water pears. Jerky Black Dragon Meat is baked from hunted Black Dragon Meat by a master of cooking with a full level. The Qingshui pear is also a very rare fruit. It is quite small, and eating one can maintain water supply for three days.
Shura ate very little, and Ayatsuji and Witt hadn't gotten used to their transformed bodies yet, so they ate and drank unceremoniously. As for the ghost fox, he squatted on the snow outside the cave with his tongue hanging, kneading the snow into balls carefully, and then touched the edge of the cliff outside, not knowing what to do.
"Ghost... really don't need to eat?" Witt said worriedly seeing the series of strange behaviors of the ghost at the entrance of the cave.
"Don't pay attention to him, he will deal with it himself when he gets tired after playing." Shura said calmly, leaning his body against the stone wall, as if he was about to rest.
Witt was about to continue the question that was interrupted during the day, so he asked: "Should we be able to reach the top of the mountain tomorrow? Can we see the Ice Dragon King tomorrow?"
"It should be about the same. I have almost never been to the Solgar Mountains." Shura replied.
"Then... do we have any strategy? I asked before, under what circumstances the Ice Dragon King would open his third eye, and you haven't answered yet."
"The ghost fox knows better than me the setting of the monster. If you want to ask how to deal with the Ice Dragon King, you still have to ask him."
As soon as Shura finished speaking, the ghost fox ran back into the cave holding a branch in each hand with an ice ball on the branch.
Excitedly, he brought one of the lollipop-like ice balls in front of Shura, and showed off: "Look, look! This is the ice made from the snowball I squeezed out, isn't it very round?! "
Witt and Ayatsuji found this scene inexplicably awkward, but Shura seemed to be used to it, calmly took the puck, and replied, "It's quite round, how did you freeze the snow into ice?"
"I remember that there is a design freezing wind around the Solgar Mountains. It's just... throwing people and monsters from the mountain will freeze into ice blocks halfway, and they can break into pieces when they fall to the end. It's very interesting. I just want to try it. You can’t freeze a snowball into ice, so you simply made a snowball, strung a tree branch, stretched it to the edge of the cliff and blew the freezing wind twice, and then it became like this.” Ghost Fox couldn’t hide his complacent tone. .
Shura let out a "huh", obviously perfunctory, and then inserted the branch he gave into the crevice of the stone beside him.
The ghost fox turned around and ran to the corner, looked and looked at the ice puck in his hand, stretched out his long tongue and licked it...
With great difficulty, Witt recovered from the weird daily interaction between Ghost Fox and Shura, and brought his thoughts back to the earlier question. Now that the ghost raccoon came back, he asked, "Ghost raccoon, can we reach the top of the mountain tomorrow? How are you going to grab the ice dragon ball?"
At this moment, the ghost raccoon made a strange whimpering sound, and Witt approached him curiously to see that his long tongue was stuck to the ice puck and could not be pulled off for a while.
Witt felt helpless and funny, so he slapped the ice puck hard, and the thing immediately shattered... This did free the ghost fox's tongue, but he was obviously not happy—
"What are you doing? How can you break the ice puck I made?!"
"Aren't I here to help you?..." Witt replied with a cramp on his face.
"Who wants you to meddle in your own business!" Ghost Fox yelled at him, "Don't talk to me until you give me back the puck!" After saying that, he ran out of the cave again.
"Eh? This kid..." Witt sighed helplessly, and subconsciously turned his head to look at Shura, who was still so calm. Witt couldn't help muttering, "Is this all spoiled by you?"
Shura smiled lightly: "Ghost raccoon? He doesn't need to be petted. He is the most innocent child I have ever seen."
"Then...you can ask him for me later, about dealing with the Ice Dragon King tomorrow? I said, why don't you two feel nervous or in a hurry for such an important matter?" Witt asked Shura.
"Ask Ghost Fox about this, and he will tell you. You can't even handle a child, can you?"
Shura's rhetorical question choked Witt's next words. The young master in his bones had a strong temper, so he naturally wouldn't let him give up easily, so he pretended to cough twice and said, "Okay! I'll ask him right now." , I must ask about this matter today!"
