The golden flames exploded in the sky, spreading to the gloomy sky, like a ring, the squally wind was engulfing snowflakes, such a bad weather, it was like the end of the world predicted by the Miner people, but the dazzling flash was still Reflecting the sky in a radius of tens of miles, under the layers of clouds, there is a vast expanse of whiteness.
"Lord Lord?" Medissa turned her head from that direction, her cheeks paled by the light.
"Split the soldiers in two ways, this is the high-level magic of the Temple of Flame, it seems that Freya is in trouble." Brando also replied to her with his head up.
Veronica nodded and agreed.
"Let Brende take everyone else over. You stay here, the commander of our legion, and the teacher stay. I have three of my entourages, Akane, plus Aloz and Star. These are the highest battles. The strength is enough to deal with the old fox Anlek."
"As for Prince Lenareit..."
"He's with us." Veronica gave him a glance and replied preemptively.
Brando knew that no matter how bold they were, the Cruz people would not let their future crown prince take unnecessary risks. However, Freya must be in trouble. This is obvious, but the Valkyrie has to go his own way after all. He can't always take care of her, which ultimately harmed her. The world is not as peaceful as the girl expects. She has to pay for what she wants, otherwise it will be unfair to others.
Brando lowered his eyelids lightly, not to mention that Nimesse was by her side, there shouldn't be any problems, he could only think of it.
"Then it is decided, Haruze, you are with us," Brando grabbed the reins again, and the little prince who was next to Prince Lenaret nodded to him quickly. He turned his head back: "Poetry Miss Do..."
"I'm with you too." Miss Scholar looked at Veronica, then looked at the Lord Earl, and replied to them.
"Well, Mr. Brende, do you have any questions?"
"As long as there is a horse—" the blond young knight replied proudly, riding on the sky horse. He checked his sword and tied a dagger to his shoulder armor like all folding sword knights. (This tradition is said to be derived from Gilt's battle with the Ghost King in the Black Tomb. After the sword was broken, he used the dagger to fight to death. The legend of non-retreat), the cold wind pulled his cloak hunting.
"These summoned Pegasus will last until early tomorrow morning, you must pay attention to it." Metisa replied.
"This is enough!"
Brende saluted Veronica, then nodded to Brando, he turned his horse's head and blew a whistle. The whistle sounded far away in the wind and snow, like a bird that screamed through the canopy of a tree, bringing the entire forest to life. The dark team turned in the heavy snow, and the Cruz knights were mighty and mighty. The land left the avenue, and many people began to move towards the forest a few miles away.
Looking around, there are dense black spots in the white snow, but after a while, it becomes a small piece with only a thin line on the horizon. Brende turned his head for the last time and gestured to them with a sword that flickered with cold light. .
He raised his sword to indicate a good sign of success.
"Don't worry, they are all excellent children." Veronica said, "Miss Freya won't have much trouble."
"I hope so, I believe her."
"Now it's our turn. The dragon tells us that there is a shortcut. Are we already on it?"
"That road is not easy to walk. It has to pass through the ice gap under this glacier. Only the dragon walks through that road. The passers-by that the dragon walks may not be able to walk. There are dangers hidden under the ice. Many of them come from the age of myths. It’s just that Duke Anlek is heading to the Hibernator’s Temple, and we must catch up with him before that."
"... Brando, what exactly does Anlek want to do? He has already got the Dragon Heart, why didn't he choose to leave here, but continue to go deep into the glacier?" Veronica narrowed her eyes.
Brando didn't answer immediately. In his heart, he would rather believe that Anlek might want to kill two birds with one stone, with the help of the power of the devil, to open the ancient seal in the Temple of the Hibernator and release the twilight descendants that are sealed underground.
However, he always felt that things were not so simple. Anlek would not know that he would anger the guardian here-Star, and intuitively told him that Anlek might have already arranged a series of plans for this trip-but he had to reveal the other party's For the trick, Brando thinks that the first thing to do is to find what is really hidden in the center of the maze of the frost-stained forest.
Regarding Veronica's question, he just shook his head: "We will know soon."
"Brando, Shiduo is very familiar with such glaciers. She has a wealth of knowledge in geography. She might be able to help you."
"No, I am familiar with it too. What I need is a guide with rich survival skills, not a scholar."
Peia is such an excellent guide, but the hunter girl has become a little depressed since seeing her companion in the town being killed by Anlek. She can’t ride a horse, she can only ride with Akane. She surrounded the waist of the mountain girl stubbornly, without saying a word.
The sky soon went dark, or it was darker than before. The night on the snowy field was pitch black, there was no light, and no one could see his fingers. No team could continue to drive in such an environment. Therefore, everyone had to stop and camp leeward, the forest direction was quiet, and there was no sound from it, and it was like this for the whole night.
In the early hours of the morning, Brando finally found the "shortcut" in the mouth of the star that led to the ice gap. He finally knew why this road was called a shortcut because it passed through the entire glacier blocking the north. Brando remembers that there is also such a channel in the game, which is called the "knife edge" by the players.
Because passing through it is as dangerous as passing through a blade, if it is not in a hurry, no one wants to choose this path.
The next few hours were spent in darkness and cold. The team sometimes walked along a long and narrow glacier, and then appeared over the Wanren Abyss in a blink of an eye. The intricate terrain under the glacier was an eye-opener for everyone, but the most rewarding It was obviously Miss Scholar. As long as she had time to stop, Brando would see her taking out a small book from her backpack and writing and painting.
The whole morning was in peace. Two eyeless ice monsters lurking in the ice gap wanted to attack the team, but Mephistopheles discovered in advance that they were killed with one sword and one end. They should be the nearby BOSS. Brando discovered that the Grey Sword Saint himself could have a lot of experience in killing monsters, but it was a pity that nothing broke.
There is no concept of time in the dark underground. Almost two or three hours after Mephistopheles killed the ice demon, the team came to a natural empty place. At this time, Shido and Haruze, who were slightly weaker, were almost exhausted. Brando put the torch between the two ice ridges, and then asked everyone to stop to rest and replenish their energy.
At this time Aloz approached him.
The little dragon dragged Brando out of the crowd and pulled him aside, with a dangerous light gleaming in her golden eyes. She stretched out her paw to Brando and whispered: "Brando, someone is here. Follow us, did you find out?"
Brando was startled slightly, and his face immediately showed a serious look: "I have a vague feeling, I thought it was an illusion. How, can you feel it?" Brando didn't lie, because of certain experiences in the game. , He believes in his instinct very much, which is why he stopped the team.
These glaciers and the cracks below were caused in the war tens of thousands of years ago. No one knows what will be under the ice layer. Calculated according to the intensity of the game, there will be up to sixty-level bosses. It is not impossible, in terms of combat effectiveness, that is equivalent to the existence of the pinnacle of the law.
Although his teacher in the team has stepped into the extreme realm with one foot, but in such an environment, strength sometimes does not explain the problem, Brando has not forgotten how Andesa capsized in the gutter.
"Huh? You can detect it? I asked your Grey Sword Saint teacher. He doesn't seem to feel it at all. How did you feel it?" Aloz was a little curious.
"I'm just intuition, and it has nothing to do with strength." But Brando frowned, faintly feeling that it might be related to the perception of darkness, but unfortunately he still can't wear the Gemini ring, otherwise he will definitely feel the lurker more clearly.
"Hmph, your instincts are pretty weird, to be honest, I just have some intuitions to feel that something is following us. Didn’t you find that there are too few monsters under this glacier, more than the number of times we encountered monsters in Star’s Lair Too much less."
"You judged based on this?" Brando took a closer look at the little mother dragon, a little surprised by the other's carefulness.
"almost."
"What about Star, it's the ground snake here. It is said that it has passed through this ice gap several times. What did he say? What's down here?"
"He said he didn't know."
"Do you think he would not know?"
"Are you saying he was lying to me?" Aloz was a little annoyed: "He dare not lie to me."
"But have you ever thought about who made it stay here? He has never said the other's name, Aloz, Star just looks like an idiot on the surface."
The little dragon stopped her mouth, she showed a look of surprise, and then turned into anger again. "Damn, he dared to lie to me, I'll go find him." "Wait, don't go!" Brando grabbed her arm and wanted to pull the little female dragon back, but he didn't expect Aloz's power to be real. It was too big but almost took him out. Brando finally held his footing and shouted: "Aloz, wait a minute, I don't think Star lied to you—"
"What do you mean, Brando, why do I become more and more confused when you speak?" Aloz turned around and replied angrily.
"I mean, Star may not even know the other party's name."
"Impossible," Aloz immediately retorted, "You also said that Stare is not really an idiot. I know him well. He is a little stupid sometimes, but he is a clever guy."
"I mean, do you know that those exist?" Brando replied in a low voice, "The Guardians."
"what… "
Aloz was suddenly speechless, she stared at Brando dumbfounded. "How do you know this..."
"No, wait"
