Chapter 12: The Frozen Forest

It was another rest day, the sky was not yet bright, and Wuxian, who had been sitting on the bed and practicing all night, slowly opened his eyes, and his eyes were clear. The pen got out of bed www.biquge.info changed into a neat white suit, and wrapped the white feathers around his slender waist. From a distance, the white feather looks no different from an ordinary belt, and even if it is recognized as a feather whip, no one will believe that it is a bloodthirsty artifact that takes people's lives in the blink of an eye.

After washing his face, he made up carefully in front of the bronze mirror, making his eyebrows show a bit of youthful heroism. She will also do disguise surgery, but it is a little more dangerous than makeup, and it is easy to be recognized by masters who are good at transfiguration. Makeup is much more convenient, and a few simple strokes can transform a stunning girl into a handsome boy with three-dimensional facial features.

When she was almost ready, An Ruo happened to knock on the door and enter.

"Early. ”

"Early, where's your sword?" Wu Wu found An Ruo empty-handed. The Ye family will equip each disciple with a sword, although it cannot be compared with a divine weapon, but the sharpness is not comparable to that of an ordinary sword.

"Don't worry, I've got this. An Ruo smiled and stretched out his hand, and a golden halo rose from his palm, turning into a sharp sword.

"Dou Qi Turns into a Sword?" This is a skill unique to Dou Ling, which adjusts the Dou Qi out of the body and turns into a sword body. The higher the strength of the fighting qi, the sharper the sword will be.

An Ruo's sword blade was different from the ordinary Dou Qi sword, his sword body was surrounded by wisps of flames, which seemed inconspicuous, but its power should not be underestimated.

"Well, so you don't have to worry. An Ruo retracted his vindictiveness, "We only have one day, so let's leave now." ”

The destination of their trip was the Frozen Forest. The Frozen Forest is the forest that ranks second in the realm range and danger index of all continents in the lower plane, and inside it is the paradise of demonic beasts and the hell on earth. Many people did not hesitate to go deep into it in order to obtain the precious magic core and magic crystal of the Demon Beast, but they often returned with a feather, and even lost their lives. Only a handful of people are favored by Lady Luck and are able to get what they need and get out of the way.

Such life-and-death adventures have been repeated for thousands of years.

Wuxian and An Ruo walked into the frozen forest, and from time to time they would see a team of mercenaries on a mission passing by, and someone would also send them a kind invitation, which Wuxian politely declined.

Two people don't necessarily mean weakness, sometimes it's an advantage. The comprehensive strength of the two of them will never lose to the combat effectiveness of any top-level demon hunting group.

"We're still on the outskirts of the forest. Wuxian took out a map from the spatial ring.

This is an additional map that they received when they received the mission in the Mercenary Chapter, which depicted the detailed terrain of the Frozen Forest and clearly marked the dangerous areas where the High Monsters frequently appeared.

This map was recovered by thousands of mercenaries who groped in the frozen forest again and again, at the cost of their lives.

"The periphery is relatively safe," An Ruo took the map in Wuxian's hand and read it carefully, keeping all the details in mind, "The seventh-order griffin belongs to a high-level demonic beast, and it is also a social flying demonic beast, presumably living in the interior of the frozen forest, we have to continue to go deeper." ”

"Hmm. "There is no objection to it.

Trees tens of meters high can be seen everywhere in the frozen forest, and the rich shade is like an umbrella cover, blocking the sunlight from the outside world, making the forest look indescribably dark and mysterious.

Occasionally, one or two low-level demonic beasts burst out, and they didn't dare to step forward to attack because of the Dou Ling coercion deliberately emanating from An Ruo's body. The aura of the Immortal Dragon Emperor was masked by the Holy Light Source, and he looked like an ordinary mercenary in a power suit. The two did not encounter much resistance along the way.

As I walked, the ground under my feet became more and more wet, and it became a lot softer when I stepped on it. There is a faint scent of flowers in the air, I can't tell what it smells, and the smell is intoxicating.

Wu Wu picked up a dead branch from the ground, brushed aside the bushes that blocked the way, and a stream flowed in front of him, and the stream twisted and twisted forward, and there was no end in sight.

Wu Wu wondered, "The map doesn't indicate that there is a water source here." "Looking at this stream, it doesn't look like it's recent. If it's been around for a while, how can it not be marked on the map? You know, this road is the safest way for mercenaries to get to the frozen forest, how can no one notice that the terrain has changed?

"Wuxian, have you noticed that there are only two of us footprints in the vicinity?" An Ruo also noticed something unusual, "The ground is very smooth, as if there has never been a trace of a human or a demonic beast, which contradicts the map." ”

Yes, since there are map records, it just means that someone has been here. Even if the terrain changes, the map will be updated quickly, and there will be very few mismatches.

"If there is a contradiction, it proves that there is a ghost. ”

The clear water of the stream flowed, and the innocent eyes were fixed, and the dead branches were thrown into the water.

The branch floated on the surface of the water and went down the stream, and just the moment when Wuxian thought it would be carried away by the current, the branch suddenly disappeared.

And just like that, it disappeared out of thin air.

Wu Wu stared at the direction where the branches disappeared for a long time. To test her suspicions, she plucked another leaf from the bush and threw it into the stream. The leaves are green and translucent, and stand out against the transparent stream.

I saw the leaves drift slowly with the water, and the point where the branches disappeared was also gone.

Wu Wu confirmed the guess in his heart.

"Ah Ruo, I think we have been ambushed. ”

An Ruo never doubted the words of Wu Xian, he carefully recalled the possible dangers near this road on the map, and he had the impression that there were no particularly powerful magical beasts that would haunt here. Of course, the map is not absolutely accurate, and Warcraft has its own independent life circle, and sometimes it will go out of this circle to hunt creatures lower than itself.

"It's smart, it can induce us to take the initiative to go to the trap without us knowing," a faint smile appeared in Wuxian's eyes, not revealing the slightest panic that should be in danger when encountered, "It's a pity that we met us, so it's still a bad move." ”

She closed her eyes, pulled a trace of consciousness from her mind, and flew to the place where the branches and leaves disappeared under the control of her mind, and suddenly attacked.

In fact, it was also the first time she used her divine sense to attack. The Divine Sense's attack range is relatively limited, and the strength must be higher than that of the opponent to win. The divine consciousness is tightly tied to the soul, which can be said to be the most sensitive and vulnerable part of the human body, and it is not only a matter of time before you want to recover from damage.

Immortality is not a risk, the trap hole laid by the opponent is too obvious, and it can be seen that the strength is average.

Sure enough, the moment the attack fell, the stream in that area immediately boiled violently like boiling water.

With a scream, a gap opened in the space they were in, and the gap became bigger and bigger, and the stream in front of them was split in two.

Wu Wu instantly adjusted to the dizziness caused by the tearing of the space, and she fixed her eyes to see where there was still the shadow of a stream, and they were still standing on the periphery of the frozen forest, not going inside.

Creeping on the ground was a small white beast that trembled.

"This is the monster that ambushed us?" An Ruo raised an eyebrow in surprise.

Not as powerful as imagined.

"It's a phantom demon.,It belongs to the phantom clan.,It's good at using illusions to confuse the enemy's mind.,And then to achieve the purpose of control.,The fragrance of flowers just now must be the inducement.。 "Since becoming a mercenary of the demon hunting group, Wu Wu has done a lot of homework in the cognition of demonic beasts, and the phantom demon is a very common magical beast of the phantom race, it is not difficult to recognize, "The level of this sixth-level phantom demon is not high, and even the edge of the high-level demonic beast has not been touched, no wonder there is such a big mistake in the illusion." ”

Immortal's divine sense is already powerful, and coupled with her Dragon Emperor physique, there are definitely not many people who can compete with her at the spiritual level. The phantom demon relies on illusion to survive all its life, and illusion uses spiritual power as the medium, and this time it has been hit hard by the Immortal, even if it has lost more than half of its immortal strength, it is even more difficult to survive in the frozen forest.

"You set a trap first, I naturally have no room for softness," the demonic beast can open the spiritual wisdom at the fourth level, and the immortal understands that the phantom demon can understand what he says, "Now that we are even, I will not kill you, you can go." ”

Although it was the phantom demon who took the initiative to ambush them, it did not cause them substantial harm, and Wu Xian decided to let it go, and out of the nature of a healer, she showed it a relatively safe path.

The phantom left in a panic with fear and gratitude.

Interrupted by the phantom demon, their time was wasted, and Wuxian and An Ruo had to speed up their journey.

The interior of the Frozen Forest is even more eerie than the outside, and the air is exceptionally cold and humid.

In this silent and cold environment, Wu Xi sensed two special breaths, faint as if they were nothing.

"What's wrong?" The road became narrower and narrower, and finally only one person was allowed to walk, An Ruo opened the way in front, but he never forgot to pay attention to the martyrdom behind him.

"It's okay, let's go, be careful. Wuxian shook his head and let go of the doubts in his heart.

Maybe it's because I'm thinking too much, maybe it's two low-level demonic beasts that can't restrain their breath when they're just born.

Wu Wu and An Ruo gradually penetrated deep into the interior of the frozen forest, and before they could reach their destination, a strong coercion came to their faces.

"Here we are. "Comparing the map repeatedly, Wu Jian confirmed the target.

"Innocent, you see. An Ruo pointed ten meters away.

An unusually open, open-air cavern, and on the gravel ground outside the cavern, two rank 7 silver-feathered griffins guarded their territory.

Wu Yan and An Ruo held their breath, and approached cautiously step by step.

"There's no road ahead, so we're here waiting for the third griffon to show up, and then we're all gone. "Further on is the territory of the griffins, and there is no cover for them to carry out their operations.

An Ruo found a dense bush nearby, and pulled Wu Yan to squat down quickly.

After waiting quietly for two hours, the frozen forest had completely sunk into darkness.

A third griffon descended from a high altitude and was finally exposed to their sight.

"It's now!" Wu Xian quickly pulled out the white feather and rushed out with an arrow step.

An Ruo followed.

Deal with the two griffons without any loss, and just as she is about to take out the griffin's crystal, a cold wind hits her back.

"No Death!"

"No Death!"

Two voices sounded at the same time, one was An Ruo's and the other was ...... It's Ye Liufeng!

How did he come here?

Before Wu Wu had time to think about it, a cold wind blew in front of him.
