The Amber Sword - 795. Chapter 795
It seems that there has been a fierce battle in the snow-covered woodland, and the snow and bushes are full of corpses of winter wolves. The corpse was turning into black particles, escaping like black smoke. The victor of the battle obviously belonged to the other side not lying on the battlefield: the human knights from Cruz.
You Xi watched this scene blankly, while slowly walking along the clearing between the woodland,’click’, and the boots stepped into the snow, “Damn it.” You Xi cursed in a low voice. He frowned and lifted his foot, took off his boots, patted the shaft of the boot, shaken out the snow inside, and then put it on again.
A gray-white winter wolf emerged from the bushes and whimpered to him several times. You Xi raised his head and rubbed his chin: “About a quarter of an hour? They have fled to the north?”
“Who are they, those Cruz people?”
“I want to come too. Apart from them, no one else can be found in this forest.”
“Don’t worry, Negative Yu stubbornly resists, they can’t run far anymore.”
Winter Wolf whispered, and You Xi seemed to understand what the beast wanted to express, and stroked the opponent’s forehead with his hand.
Although he is no longer as pretentious as he was in Ampersel at this moment, he was indeed killed once in that war, dying under the sword of the insurgents during the rout, and the injuries that fell at that time left him on his body. Annihilated wounds. Now his skin is as white as paper, lacking luster and moisture, and his bare arms and palms are as thin as a skull. One eye is always blind, so he wears a hollow skull pattern printed on the surface. Blindfold to cover up.
There was also a fatal wound left on his chest. It was a stab wound from the epee, which has not healed yet. The gap leading to the ribs under the wound pierced the heart, but the heart that was once born as a human has long been decayed and no longer beating, replaced by a blazing white flame.
All this is because of the deals he made to those unnamed existences during his lifetime, and they promised him eternal and immortal power, which he did enjoy after death, just in another way.
He became an undead.
Only after being an undead can he understand how painful eternal immortality is. The fire of the soul burns everything about the past in the memory all the time. Pain, regret, anger and sorrow and various negative emotions linger in the soul, making him endure torture day and night. Day after day, human feelings are gradually worn out, and now only the cold hatred for everything in the past is left in the mind.
It’s just that although he has become an undead, it is not without gain. Those unnamed existences have indeed fulfilled the promise to give him strength, and summoning the winter wolves in the forest is just one of them.
This is a force far beyond the mortal world, and is completely different from the superficial forces of mankind based on power, the real power that can be mastered.
More and more winter wolves appeared in the forest like ghosts. The wolves were divided into small teams and galloped in all directions.
You Xi listened attentively, and it didn’t take long for a long wolf howl to sound. He sneered, and his pets really found the trace of each other.
…
In the clearing among the forests, several winter wolves circled around the corpse of their companions. They raised their heads as if sniffing the bloody smell in the air. Then the leading wolf let out a long howl, and all turned to chase in one direction.
Such scenes are being staged everywhere.
The wolves quickly found more traces. The corpses were buried under the snowdrifts, among the thorny bushes, and some were even hidden on the tree trunks, all the way to the north. Such battles left more and more traces. As if to outline such a scene, the knights of the Cruz people fought and retreated, but they still could not get rid of the tracking of the wolves.
Marquis Youxi followed his wolves, inspecting each corpse one by one. The sword wounds on the corpse confirmed his guess. At first, the Cruz people still had time to dispose of the corpses, or bury them under the snow layer, but Later, they had to leave the battlefield hastily and left the body of the Winter Wolf casually in the woodland.
Going forward a little further, the young men simply fled the battlefield, and most of the corpses of the winter wolves stayed where they were killed:
This shows that the Cruz people have no time to dispose of the corpse, and they fled in haste.
On the other hand, this also means that the distance between the wolves and them is getting closer.
You Xi followed calmly. He sometimes had time to look up at the bright glacier to the north: if the other party knew the real name of the glacier, they would regret their choice.
It is not a natural glacier, but the outer wall of the Hibernator’s Temple buried by the glacier.
Want to bypass that wall, unless you can bypass the entire central area of the Breath of Milos.
After about a quarter of an hour, the wolves stopped in front, as if they had found something.
You Xi separated the herd and walked to the place where they stopped. After seeing what his pet had found, he couldn’t help smiling like a winner.
It was the footprints, a long string of footprints appeared so striking in the snow, the footprints left by the Cruz people panicked all the way into the black pine forest of Elson.
“There is no time to clean up the footprints, it seems to be aware of me,” You Xi thought for a moment, snapped his fingers. He dispersed the wolves, filtering the entire forest in front of them like a big net.
…
Freya and his party hurriedly passed through the black pine forest, and the steep ice wall was already in front of them. The bluish stag is still leading the way. It walks vigorously along the broken ice zone on the edge of the glacier, jumping from one sloping ice surface to another sloping ice surface, never slipping, and Will not lose balance, steady as if walking on the ground.
But this journey seems a bit difficult for the young people of the Knights of Broken Sword. Even though almost everyone of them is a master in the golden field, there is even Brend’s strength in the upper ranks of gold, but there are still people from time to time. slip.
In view of Freya’s own meager strength, Nimesis and Pello took special care of her, but even so, she still fell several times. She hurt her arm the first time, and knocked her forehead the second time, so that her forehead still looks red now, as if she was about to cry at any time, which made her very embarrassed.
Because of this, the team’s forward speed became slower and slower, and everyone seemed a little silent. Not only does this steep glacial cliff look endless, but also because the forest is getting quieter and quieter, which shows that the white demons have begun to pass through the black pine forest behind.
‘Ha–‘, Brende casually threw the frozen dry food into the snow and splashed a ball of snowflakes. He saw the ball rolling down the steep terrain, and finally fell into a bar of ice. Disappeared in the gap. If you fall here, everyone is likely to face the same danger. Those ice gaps are connected with the bottomless glacier. If you accidentally stumble, you can’t expect to climb up by yourself.
Not to mention that in places like the Breath of Milos, even in the large glacier east of Faenza, there are not many adventurers who disappear under the glacier every year.
He felt cold and hungry, and his eyelids were as heavy as lead, but unfortunately they didn’t have time to stop and rest, let alone light a fire.
“How long will this deer take us along this glacier, and if we continue like this, we will be overtaken by the winter wolves.” Alaya couldn’t help complaining again: “We spent a lot of time. The strength drove them away.”
“You shut up and no one treats you as a dumb.” Brende replied badly. He didn’t know where this guy got so much nonsense: “Wolves will slow down when they pass through a glacier. They can be in this type of terrain. That guy is the only one who wanders in the courtyard.”
When he said this, he stared at the faint blue shadow in front of him.
But at this time, someone in the team suddenly uttered a low voice: “Look over there!”
Alea was about to speak back, but she couldn’t help turning her head when she heard this low whisper. Everyone, including him, saw a few white shadows appearing on the edge of the black forest in the distance.
It was obviously a wolf. They obviously found the Cruz people trekking on the edge of the cliff, took a long look here, and then turned around and went back into the forest.
“Oh, hell, what else do you have to say?” Alea looked back at Brende gleefully.
“What’s so good for you to be happy about?” Although it was so sarcasm, Brende smashed his mouth and muttered to himself: “Why is it so fast.”
“Haha,” Alaya laughed as if not afraid of death: “I can see you deflated, even if I die, I have no regrets.”
“You can jump from here if you want to die, Alea,” Little Pello heard this guy say more and more outrageous, and finally said coldly: “No one will hold you.”
Strangely speaking, when the short young Cruz young man from Vincenton spoke, Alea shut up. He slapped awkwardly: “I’m just saying this. Besides, I really can’t walk anymore. After the commander orders me to stop, I will never refuse, and have a fight with those beasts.”
“No need,” Freya was a little bit dumbfounded. She really admired Little Pello for being able to discipline such a guy so subdued. When she was the captain of the militia, there were some slippery bastards in the team, but compared to Alea, it was nothing.
The Cruz knight in front of her really subverted her impression of the Cruz people.
“It stopped.” When everyone was arguing, only Rollo was still staring ahead. At this moment, he suddenly saw the beautiful blue creature stopped near the ice wall in front. It looked towards the human side, as if it was telling them that it had reached its destination.
Then everyone noticed this scene. “Let’s take a look.” Little Pello spoke first.
So Alea and Brende also stopped the dispute, the team continued to move forward, about a quarter of an hour later, they arrived at that place.
But the next moment, everyone was stunned. When they got closer, they discovered that the glacier was sunken inward here, forming a long and narrow canyon.
The misty gorge, like a crack cut by lightning, appeared in front of everyone in the Knights of Broken Sword…
