Diametrically opposed to the empty streets, at this time the inn was full of people, Su Ya waited in a short line, and it was the turn of the waiter wearing a red hat to receive him, it was a cute boy with a round face, he said to Su Ya in a cheerful voice: "Lovely young lady, you and your brother, do you need a room?" ”

Suya pulled Nick and nodded, "Yes." ”

"Two gold coins, remember to check out tomorrow when the sun rises," he told with a smile, "Also, close the doors and windows at midnight, and don't come out if you hear strange noises!" ”

"Okay." Like the people in front of her, Su Ya did not show the slightest curiosity, handed him two gold coins, and led by another waiter, stepped on the "babbling" wooden floor, walked through the dimly lit corridor, and reached the door of his room.

The waiter left the candle for Su Ya, and jumped away, Su Ya held the silver candlestick, pushed open the wooden door of the room, the wooden door was wet, a little sticky, but it opened with a push.

The room is not big, the furnishings are very simple, a table, a chair, a bed, and a coat rack, Su Ya put the candle on her body, turned around and looked at it.

Closing the door and adding an ice-based magic barrier to the room, Suya said to Nick and the little griffin, "Are you hungry?" ”

The two little guys shook their heads obediently, and Su Ya took out a bag of jerky from the magic wand and handed it to the two: "Eat some cushions first, and I'll take you downstairs to eat delicious food later." ”

There is a tavern in the hotel, just in the basement behind the lobby, when Su Ya was queuing, she paid attention to the observation, and the conversation was not lively. It's a good place to get some news.

But before that, Su Ya wanted to be alone and quiet, from preparing a birthday banquet for the empress before, to confronting, fleeing, and then entering the trial tower, she ran all the way without a moment's rest. I've been tired for a long time.

It's just that. failed to save her mother, and Tarot fell into a deep sleep again, and Suya was alone. She didn't have the qualifications to stop and rest at all, so she leaned back on the bed while enjoying the rare tranquility. I still have the next thing in my hand.

She first took out her magic cloak and changed it, removing the logo of Alice Academy. And learn from the people here to put raw edges on the cuffs and necklines, so that they look no different from the magicians who have returned from the forest.

As for the clothes inside, she took out the furnace directly and refined a few long dresses that matched the style on her body. The things that Nick transformed were all useless, and the battle might come at midnight, so Su Ya was after refining it. Immediately changed the clothes on his body.

Nick, who was eating jerky, muttered quietly and lowered his head to continue eating. The "owl" next to it let out an unkind laugh.

Su Ya pretended not to see the jealousy of the little ones, took out the gold coin she had just exchanged from the bearded dwarf, hesitated for a moment, threw one to the small melting pot, and took out a gold coin from the El Empire from the magic wand and threw it to it: "Can you change it exactly the same?" ”

The small melting pot swallowed the original gold coin and melted it, and after a while, it spit it out again, shaking her body at Su Ya, indicating that she couldn't do it.

Sure enough, as she thought, the alchemist who created this magical trial space, the level of alchemy is beyond her reach, except for the alchemy puppet, the things here cannot be replaced, and must be done according to the rules he formulated.

If only I could learn alchemy in this trial space, Su Ya sighed, and continued to pack up her things, putting the commonly used things into the inconspicuous magic storage bag as in the past, so that they could be easily accessed. The spices for cooking, the "seven-colored light" streamers, and the change of clothes were put away, and Su Ya found that the rose crown that Tarot had given her, the roses carved by rubies, were much brighter than usual.

Suya reached out and sensed it with magic, and found that Tarot had helped her lift the ban on it, and now the crown had restored its power as a magical treasure, not only could it act as a magic shield, but also had other functions, and it looked quite powerful.

Probably don't worry about her alone, so that she can have more means of self-protection.

Suya had a sour nose, packed up everything, put on a fluffy magic cloak, and beckoned to Nick and the little griffin, the little griffin immediately flew to her shoulder, and Nick also conjured a cloak for herself according to Suya's style, and then followed her out of the room and went downstairs to the tavern to eat.

The tavern was more lively than Suya had imagined, with bards playing acoustic guitars and singing a hymn to the dragon-hunting heroes by the burning fire, guests drinking and chatting, waiters in red hats shuttling through, trays full of food in their hands, and the air filled with aromas.

Su Ya found a place near the window and sat down, ordered two sets of meals that were the same as the adjacent table, and took advantage of the waiting time to look out the window and find that at some point, snow had fallen outside the house.

The snow fell quickly, and after a while, it turned white, looking at the tall and low eaves on both sides of the road, and the lights in the house that were clearly extinguished, Su Ya had the illusion of returning to the ice and snow island.

But soon, she came back to her senses, because the food in the waiter's tray really challenged her palate, the bloody monster meat, the crunchy worm salad, and the weirdly colored juice, Suya covered her face a little distressed, but Nick and the little griffin ate with relish.

She better go back to eat dry food, just sit here and listen to the news, Su Ya quickly adjusted the plan, pretended to drink the juice, and glanced around.

Soon, she heard someone talking about the weather, it was a grumpy magician, he was cursing the damn weather loudly, "I don't have time to go deep into the forest to catch unicorns during the day, it snows when it's dark, I can't see it, and it's so cold that I can freeze to death, damn it, is this forest only for ice magicians?!" ”

"Hey, hey, hey," the man at the table next to him was upset when he heard this, and slapped the table and shouted, "Brother, the ice mages are all sitting here!" ”

"The Ice Mage can't resist the cold here," explained his companion, a small lady, helplessly, "We tried to stay outside in the forest last night, but we froze back before midnight. ”

"That unicorn is so cunning that it escaped to such a remote and strange place!"

"yes, yes, there are still three days left before the bounty expires. Looks like you're going to run for nothing......"

"So, who told you that capturing a unicorn is a simple thing?" A lone wanderer sitting in the shadows, coldly mocking the crowd, but his voice was not loud enough to arouse the minds of the others.

Suya glanced up at him and saw that the lone wanderer seemed to be looking at her as well. Suya lowered her head. Taking a disguised sip of her drink, she had no interest in the unicorn, if the man was tempting her. That's a vain temptation.

Su Ya took the plate and moved to another corner to continue listening to the gossip, and the people around her had already talked about the weather outside to the travels, most of them because of the high bounties offered by the adventurer's union. It is said that the bounty is as high as 100,000 gold coins. The request is to capture a unicorn that has escaped from the temple.

The unicorn is a light-attribute divine beast, although the level is higher than that of a natural holy beast like the little griffin, but it is kind-hearted and good at healing magic. The combat power itself is not strong, so the difficulty of the tasks released by the adventurer union is only B-level, and most of the people who take the tasks are middle and high-level magicians.

But no one expected it. The unicorn found this eerie forest as a shelter.

No one can tell the secret of this forest, only that it snows every night. People who are overwhelmed, cold and desperate, who insist on spending the night in the forest, the next day, people will only find their corpses.

So the ordinary people in the town never go out at night.

The people in the tavern, while drinking, complained about two things, first, the bearded dwarf did not lie to her, and no one knew about the "miracle of arrival" of Aurora, the goddess of dawn; Second, the task of picking "daisies with morning dew" is as she expected, and the difficulty is reflected in the problem of spending the night in the forest.

However, it sounds like an ice mage like her, it is not very dangerous to try to spend the night in the forest, and whether she can succeed depends on whether she can withstand the cold of midnight.

This is good news, Su Ya is confident that her understanding of ice magic is not bad, not to mention the fact that the temperature of the ice blade she sends out can be much lower than that of ordinary ice and snow.

As the night deepened, everyone began to go back to the room to rest one after another, and Su Ya also followed back to her room, and as soon as she arrived at the room, the little griffin couldn't help but shout: "Well, Su Ya, why did you ignore that lone wanderer just now, I feel that he is different from other alchemy puppets, he seems to be more intelligent, just like the bearded dwarf!" ”

"Oh, really?" Su Ya didn't expect this, but after thinking about it again, she didn't feel any regrets, "It's okay, the long-bearded dwarf didn't lie to me, I'll complete the progress of the task he gave first, if the task clues of the lone wanderer do not conflict with the long-bearded one, then we naturally have a chance, if there is a conflict, of course, it is Aurora's miracle that is more important." ”

"But, it's a unicorn, I'd love to see it," Nick said in a cute tone, blinking his eyes, "and trying to impersonate it." ”

"Why?"

"Because unicorns are very beautiful, and their combat power is very weak, it is difficult to be debunked if they are disguised, so we Nightmare Beasts have always been proud to pretend to be unicorns!"

Hehe, Nightmare Beasts are indeed a race with different brain circuits. Su Ya complained about her weakness, took out the jerky from the magic storage bag, drank cold water, and continued to prepare things while eating.

Earlier, the bearded dwarf had made an appointment to meet her at the old place tomorrow morning, and he said that his friend had a detailed map of the forest, and in order for Suya to complete the task as soon as possible, he would convince his friend to lend Suya the map.

Of course, Su Ya has no objection to this. However, at that time, Su Ya had not yet decided when to go to the forest, and it was not until she had inquired about the situation in the tavern just now that she decided to get the map tomorrow and leave for the forest immediately - even if she did not stay overnight, she should try to look into the depths of the forest to make further plans.

"Sister, if you're sleepy, just rest first, Nick will keep vigil for you." Seeing that Su Ya had been bowing her head and not saying a word, Nick thought she was dozing off, and immediately suggested thoughtfully.

"Okay, thank you Nick," Su Ya didn't refuse, there might be a tough battle at midnight, and it was necessary to maintain your strength, "You pay attention to the movement outside, remember to wake me up when it's almost midnight, I'll sleep for a while." ”

"Don't worry, Suya, and me!" The little griffin squeezed Nick away with her wings and rubbed it in front of Suya, indicating that she was more reliable.

Su Ya looked at it and couldn't help but quip, "Thanks, my dear little owl." ”

This time it was Nick's turn to laugh unkindly.

Maybe she was too tired, and almost as soon as she got to bed, Su Ya fell asleep and forgot to blow out the candle. The two angry two, one flew to the windowsill and stood, and the other transformed into a prototype, lying on his stomach against the door, but also had a clear division of labor.

The wind and snow outside were getting heavier and heavier, and beautiful ice edges formed on the eaves, which were ruthlessly blown off by the wind, and the little griffin blinked and motionless, actually checking the treasures it had hidden in the space naan. Nightmare Nick lay on the ground, his eyes narrowing.

Suddenly, its ears moved violently, as if it had heard something, and immediately transformed into the appearance of Xiao Zhengtai, and raised its eyes to look at the little griffin, who naturally understood what it meant, and flew silently to his shoulder.

There was the sound of small footsteps in the corridor, as if there were petite dancers tap-dancing in their dancing shoes, but there was no music, only children's voices singing over and over again: "What time is the old wolf, old wolf?" Old wolf ~ old wolf ~ what time is it-" (To be continued) i580
