Charlotte was stunned. But on the flip side, it also means that Malthus hasn't found Claire and Willett yet.

Little people have little people's way of survival, and Charlotte can be regarded as having seen it vividly in him today.

"Take me to the captives. Charlotte said, "Listen, I'll explore your minds with my magic eye later, and if I find anything wrong, you know what will happen to you!"

The blood man's face became even paler, and he shook his head repeatedly, "Don't dare!

Charlotte then walked to the chamber satisfied.

In fact, he didn't intend to test the man with the magic eye from the beginning. Malthus was cunning as a fox, and since he had the energy to take down the Bloodline strongholds in Yada City while chasing Claire, it meant that he had been secretly planning this for many years.

With his prudence, he may not leave any secret door in this man's mind, and once Charlotte tempts, the secret door will be activated, reminding Malthus that the evil guest will come to the door. Because of this, Charlotte will show her strength with great fanfare and use psychological warfare to break through the man's mental defense.

In fact, Charlotte guessed correctly that Malthus really left a secret door on the man.

There was no gunpowder in the first round, but Charlotte had a slight advantage.

Travel north along the continent of Ophelia, through a wondrous landscape known as the Canyon of Life and Death, and you will reach the far north of the legendary life scenic spot.

The Canyon of Life and Death is a harsh environment, with the active volcano Danjar Mountain spewing lava all day long to the south, and the icy Arctic Mountains to the north. Updrafts from active volcanoes make the area extremely humid, and the cold environment collides with the hot air currents to produce rain and snow. The environment here is even harsher than in the north, and with the exception of the vicinity of Mount Danjar, there are hardly any ordinary creatures that can survive in the far north of minus 100 degrees, with howling winds and heavy snowfall.

This is a forbidden area for life in the true sense of the word, and even the northern ice fields can't match the cold here. The worst thing is that the continent that makes up the Far North is not a solid continental shelf like the Northern Ice Sheet, and strictly speaking, the entire Far North is a huge block of ice suspended in the endless sea.

As long as it's ice, there is a time when it breaks.

Because of the abundance of active volcanoes in the far north, and the instability of the continental shelf itself, earthquakes and volcanic eruptions are frequent. At this time, the glaciers in the far north of the Endless Sea break down, creating a spectacle known as the Ice-Ridge Fountain, and the glaciers that make up the continent turn into countless pieces of fine ice, bringing terrible natural disasters to the lives that live there. Then, over time, the glaciers reconstitute in extremely cold temperatures, and new glaciers replace the broken continents and obscure all lost life.

But in any case, there were still lives in the far north at that time, struggling to survive in this cold environment.

But since Iger's death three thousand years ago, the Soul Seat decided to set up its base camp, and huge negative energy has begun to gather in the far north. Those creatures who fought tenaciously against nature could not resist the negative energy that gathered, and over time, this became a real forbidden area for life, and it became the most terrifying danger in the world of Steeu.

The further north you go from the Canyon of Life and Death, the more intense the environment becomes. At this moment, outside a naturally formed ice cave in the far north, a small black spot struggled to climb on top of the icy ice wall.

If you accidentally press your unprotected palm against the ice wall, with a little force, the ice will instantly freeze the slightest moisture on your palm, making your palm firmly stick to the ice wall. There is no need to remind you of the consequences, the skin on your palms will definitely be torn.

The black dot climbed the ice wall in the bitter cold wind, and the process lasted for two hours, and when he finally reached the platform where the ice cave was located, he fell to his knees on the platform in exhaustion and gasped for a moment, and then walked to the ice cave with difficulty.

It was a man between a teenager and a young man, with a stubbled beard, a pale and stiff face, and unmanaged hair, and at first glance, even if he was a middle-aged man, some people would believe him, but if you look at his eyes, you will find that it is still full of youthful vigor and unyielding.

He was Leonard, Claire's personal disciple. In just over two years, no, just over a month to be precise, his appearance looks like he is more than ten years old.

He cautiously walked to the ice cave, his throat clicking to imitate the skull cry, and in a few moments, the sound of bats flapping their wings could be heard in the ice cave. Leonard breathed a sigh of relief, and then took off the basket behind his back and hugged it to his chest.

"Lord Willlet, I was really lucky today, I came across the Ice Ridge Fountain, and I finally caught a few sea fish on this opportunity!"

There was excitement in his voice, and after entering the ice cave, he lifted the cloth from the basket, and four frozen fish lay inside. The extreme cold temperatures ensure that their flesh is delicious, and in a layer of frost, the fish look as if they are still alive.

"It's a pity that we don't dare to make a fire or use spells to heat it, so we can only eat sashimi. ”

With a hint of pity, Leonard approached the depths of the ice cave, where a young woman was kneeling on the ground. She was holding a thick roll of cotton wool quilt, and the cotton wool quilt was clumped, and a black thing came out of the cotton wool quilt like a rice dumpling, and the thing was tightly wrapped in gauze, revealing only three small holes.

There was a human in the quilt, and a little goblin with transparent cicada wings was sleeping on the gauze. She seemed to be awakened by Leonard, rubbed her eyes, yawned sleepily, and beckoned to Leonard, "Ah, you're finally back, and Wellett's arms are cold!"

Villeret's face, which had just been melancholy, stiffened, and she stuffed the people in the group into Leonard's arms when he returned, and a hint of unnaturalness flashed on her face, "Give it back to you!" Soon she took the fish basket again and said in a cold voice, "Are you crazy?

"It's okay!" Leonard smiled and held the group in his arms as tightly as possible, and the human body temperature made the little fairy Lily sigh comfortably.

When I was a child, I used to go fishing with my father, and these were just small scenes. ”

Willett wanted to slap him at the thought of the danger he might encounter, but he couldn't bear to see Leonard's pale and trembling face.

They were not like Villette, who could go without food or drink for a long time, and endure hunger and cold, and the nets laid by Malthus kept them from using any spells to resist the cold or use physical means to start any fires.

"Next time, I'll go find food, you don't dare to use spells, and I can use martial arts. ”

"No, no, no, it's better to leave this matter to me!"

"Do you think of me as a weak lady?"

Noticing Willet's face, Leonard waved his hand, "Ahhh Just think that if you really encounter a pursuer during the hunt, it would be more certain that Lord Willett would leave with the teacher!"

This reason made Villerite unable to refute, "Forget it, you are not being followed by others, are you?"

"Nope. I was very careful along the way and didn't use any spells. Leonard shook his head, and looked down at the unconscious quilt man worriedly, "Teacher...... Isn't he awake yet?"

"Alas—" Villette sighed, "no. If he goes on like this, he won't be able to eat at all, right?"

In the ice cave, two men and a goblin fell silent.
