Eastern peaks of the Canya Mountains,

Pedy, Ike, and Cowlier slowly climbed to the top of the mountain through the thick snow.

"Do we have to come at night in this damn weather?" Collier said with a torch in his left hand and a slight swing in his right hand to fan the goose-feathered snow, and he said weakly and weakly, "It's June, why is it still snowing here?"

"It snows all year round on Mount Canya. Sir Ike explained, "Hold on for a while, and it should be there soon." ”

"That damn brute knows how to pick places!" Cowlier complained.

"The address is an abandoned mine. Sir Ike recalled the address given to him by Pedi, "Actually, there is still a great deal of raw ore there. ”

"Then why scrap it?" Cowlier's eyes lit up, the magician's pursuit of the purple gold ore was more than anyone else's.

"Maybe it's too difficult to transport, think about how we got up. Sir Ike shrugged.

Cowlier was stunned when he heard this, "That's a problem. ”

"Be careful, there's movement. Pedi, who was at the front, suddenly spoke.

Collier shuddered, his right hand quickly pulled out the magic wand on his belt, looked left and right, and said: "It won't be snow wolves again, these damn beasts, I will definitely have people slaughter the snow wolves in this mountain when I have time in the future, and hang their fur all over my room." ”

Sir Ike smiled when he heard this, and walked to the magician's side in a few steps, "Then you need to prepare a few more rooms, there may be more snow wolves on Mount Cania than the barbarians on the other side!"

"Are there so many?" the magician was startled, and the movements of his hands unconsciously became cautious.

Pedi in front of him didn't pay any attention to his men's jokes, he shook his body, shook the snow on his cloak to the ground, wiped his right hand with a ring armor glove on the cloak, and then held his silver-white two-handed war hammer tightly.

"Illumination, a hundred meters in front of me. The Holy Power in Pedy's body unfolded and commanded Cowlier.

Collier nodded wordlessly, and a fist-sized white ball of light appeared in front of him with a swing of his staff, emitting a light of unequal size around it, making the exposed armor of Pedi and Ike shine.

"Don't play with your magic, hurry!" Pedi scolded, impatiently.

Collier smiled brightly, and then, with a finger of the staff, the light ball rose into the air at an astonishing speed, and then drew a beautiful arc in mid-air, landing a hundred meters in front of Pedi, and then exploded violently.

At the moment when the ball of light exploded, with it as the center, the surrounding radius of fifty meters seemed to be as bright as daylight.

I saw that where the light covered me, was a campsite of considerable size,

It was just an abandoned camp, and although the whole camp seemed to be covered with a thick blanket of white velvet snow, it was still clear from the vague outline that there were people living here in the past.

"This is supposed to be the transit station of the former mine cave on the mountain. "After this stop, you can walk in less than half an hour to reach your destination." ”

"Roar" Suddenly, a beastly roar came from the darkness,

After this roar, the vegetation between the mountains swayed from side to side as if blown by a strong wind, lifting the nearby snow and immediately blocking most of the three of them's view.

"Rustle" slight footsteps came,

I saw that a black shadow jumped out of the camp when the illumination was about to disappear, and landed steadily on what seemed to be the former camp lookout, staring condescendingly at the three of Pei Di.

"It's the Snow Mountain Saber-toothed Tiger!" Sir Ike had a serious expression on his face, and the holy power on his body instantly unfolded.

As soon as he finished speaking, the illumination disappeared, and his eyes turned black again, as if everything had disappeared, but a slight low roar reminded the three that it had not disappeared.

snow-capped saber-toothed tiger,

Pei Di knew it, that was he read in a play, it is rumored that an adult snow mountain sword tiger is generally two meters long, one meter high, can weigh up to five hundred catties, and is powerful, some people have seen it scratch and crush rocks with their own eyes.

"Roar" is another roar,

Peidi only felt the hair all over his body involuntarily stand up, which was the body's instinctive reaction to danger,

"Rustle"

It's the beast that's approaching!

This was Peidi's first reaction, and the next moment, the holy power around his body began to condense.

At this time, Collier's illumination was activated again,

Soon, the familiar light made Pedigton feel safe,

At this time, the beast was already squatting less than twenty meters in front of Pedi, and its huge body was like a small tent crawling on the ground.

It's on a sprint!

The target is none other than Pedi.

"Look for death!" Seeing this, Pei Di's pale red eyes suddenly widened, and he let out a loud shout, and the whole person turned into a golden light and rushed towards the face of the saber-toothed tiger in the snow-capped mountain.

"Roaring" the snow-capped mountain saber-toothed tiger also pounced on Pei Di.

In the blink of an eye, a person and a tiger came into contact with each other!

"Bang!" came like a blunt object striking on thick leather,

"Phew!" Immediately afterward, a shrill sound sounded like a blacksmith's whetstone.

Pei Di and the Snow Mountain Sabertooth Tiger's attacks each hit each other's bodies!

It was the war hammer in Pedi's hand that struck first at the joint where the saber-toothed tiger's neck met his forearm, and almost at the same time, the saber-toothed tiger's claws also slashed on the 'holy shield technique' that protected Pedi's body, making a sound like metal rubbing.

After a short encounter,

Pedi's body flew upside down like a huge rolling stone by the sharp claws of a saber-toothed tiger, and it slammed into a snow-covered rock with a "pounce", crushing the surrounding snow and beginning to deform.

"Your Excellency!" said Sir Ike and Cowllier's faces changed suddenly.

"I'm fine!" the scattered holy power in Peidi's body condensed again.

Although the saber-toothed tiger had the advantage of strength, it was hit by Peidi's powerful hammer, and it rolled on the ground in pain, making a sound like a demon screaming from its mouth.

"This beast is so powerful that it almost breaks my bones!" Peddy patted the snow on his armor and cloak, but he didn't rush to attack again.

"But fighting is not about strength. Seeing that Pedi was fine, Collier relaxed, and he looked at the snow-capped saber-toothed tiger that was spinning in the snow in pain, and smiled, "My lord, I heard that this guy's fur is very warm, you can use it to make beds, and the skull can be made into decorations." ”

"Please spare his life. "A figure seemed to appear out of thin air in the dark night.

This man was Kerbot, and although his current outfit had changed from Sharptown, Pedi recognized it at a glance.

"How long did I think you'd be hiding?" Pedi motioned to Collier and Ike to be on guard, and he himself walked towards the Kebot who appeared, "This snowy mountain saber-toothed tiger is your pet?"

"No, he's my friend!" said Kebot as he walked over to the saber-toothed tiger.

"Oh, is it?" said Pedy, standing three meters away from Kebot, "if it's daytime, maybe your friend is dead." He said the word friend very seriously.

"He just doesn't like people breaking into here," Kebot patted the saber-toothed tiger's neck, and it 'whined' a few times before limping towards the black, "I just fell asleep, after all, I've been waiting for you here for a long time, and you're coming later than I thought... I guess the orc forces are advancing slower than planned..."

"Do you know the orc's plan?" asked Pedy.

"Know some. Kebot glanced at the vigilant Collier and Ike, "This is not the place to talk, if you don't mind, you can come with me... Don't worry, I'm only one person, and I've only learned a few assassination techniques, so I'm no match for you in a head-to-head showdown. ”

"You smell of conspiracy all over your body, and you don't look like a barbarian at all. Sir Ike looked at Kebot.

"Huh. Kebot smiled, "Do you know why I chose to meet you here?" he pointed to the camp in the darkness in the distance, "This is where I used to be... I'm the descendant of a miner, and if it weren't for that accident, I might be a miner in the future!" he said, staring into the endless darkness, "I'd rather be a miner myself." ”

"So, you used to be an Imperial?" said Ser Ike, looking at Kebot earnestly.

"Sort of. Kebot shrugged and stepped away to signal Pedi to follow.

...

Half an hour later,

Kebot led the three of them into a small stone house outside an abandoned mine, a very clean and well-furnished one, a little shabby.

"I need to know your purpose!" Pedi sat down on a stool next to the campfire in the room and pushed away the tea that Kebot had handed him, "After all, you should be working for the barbarians right now, and besides, you don't look like you're going back to the Empire." ”

Kebot was not surprised by Pedi's words, he put away his tea and said: "The barbarians are full of struggles as much as within the empire, and our struggle is even more cruel than the empire, after all, you have imperial laws to bind you, but the Balu Kingdom is different, every change of our throne is accompanied by the most primitive killings, and Prince Nulif's army of 50,000 is just the first killing. ”

Sir Ike glanced at Pedi, and seeing that he did not speak, he took over the topic and said, "If this is the case, I think it may be more beneficial for us to keep Prince Nulif's army of fifty thousand!"

"Of course, this is true under normal circumstances, but you don't have time to wait for us to fight among ourselves right now. Kebot couldn't help but look at Sir Ike twice, "So now, it's best for us to work together." ”

"I need to see your sincerity. Pedi said.

"I also need to see your sincerity. Kebot stared at Pedi, "Prince Nuliv does not trust me absolutely, and in order to gain his trust, your troops must cooperate with me. ”

"Cooperate with you?" said Sir Ike, shaking his head.

"Let's show your sincerity first. Pedi said again.

After pondering for a few seconds, Kebot said: "There is a camp twenty miles north of Lake Hamik, which is the grain and grass hoarding point of Prince Konuliv, and the garrison is less than three thousand, and your scouts should have already explored it, but they have no chance of taking it.

Tomorrow night from 0:00 to 1:00 you can secretly send a convoy of 1,000 men through Mount Cania to see... Don't worry, I'll cover for your troops, I think, your thousand-strong force is enough to settle the battle in an hour, right?"

"A brigade?" Pedi whispered, his gaze on Kebot's face for a full three seconds, then he looked at Ike to confirm Kebot's information, and after Ike nodded, Pedi's eyebrows raised, and after thinking for a few seconds, he said, "Okay, it's just a team of thousands, I can still afford to lose!"

Kebot had an expression that knew you would say this, "Trust me, this is definitely a good deal, without enough logistical supplies, Prince Nuliv will definitely be in a hurry, he will be in a hurry to fight you guys, because, he has a plan with the orcs!"

"What kind of plan?" asked Pedy.

Kebot smiled and said, "It doesn't matter, as long as Prince Nulif's 50,000-strong army disappears, their plan will not succeed!"

Pei Di was not satisfied with this answer, but he knew very well that the other party did not intend to disclose this information at all, he thought about it and asked along the other party's topic: "You should have already thought about what to do, right?"

"Of course!" Kébot nodded, "My plan is a three-step process, the first thing I need to do is to gain the trust of Prince Nulif, and in order to gain his trust, I must first make him lose faith in his most trusted subordinates, so that I can have a chance,

The battalion of logistical supply is only the first step, I will give you more information later, you only need to press Prince Nulif's troops to fight, but don't fight too hard, otherwise once the troops retreat into the mountains, everything will be wasted.

When Prince Nulif's original cronies have suffered defeat, I will give my opinion at the appropriate opportunity, and at this time, I need your cooperation to let me win a few times.

I think that after such a clear contrast, Prince Nulif, even if he is a little sensitive to my identity, will respect my opinion, and this is the best time to completely annihilate Nuliv's army, and my request is very simple, the prince and the patriarchs of the tribes around him must die!"

"Very well planned. Sir Ike commented.

Kebot ignored Sir Ike at all, his eyes kept falling on Pedy,

Pedi stood up, "The rest of the matter, my retinue Collier will be in touch with you as my representative... Well, you know what I mean... Happy working together!"

"Good cooperation!" said Kebot to his feet.
