Chapter 55: Winter's Claws

It's been two days since the wolves passed, and the wolf meat is indeed delicious, but it is not suitable for bacon!

Chen Xi walked in the deep snow, carrying a small package made of wolf skin, and the wolf jerky inside was really a test of his teeth!

The snow has become shallower! This is the only thing Chen Xi knows in the past two days.

The cedar forest is far more vast than Chen Xi imagined, but perhaps because of the shallower snow, some broad-leaved trees began to gradually blend in with the cedars.

This is undoubtedly good news for Chen Xi, not only that he may be about to walk out of this cedar forest, but also that he will have a better time in the woods!

After all, hardwood is better sheltered from wind and snow than softwood!

There are no landmarks in the forest, so Chen Xi can only move towards the southward direction of the rising sun, at least, it looks warmer here!

And in the past two days, Chen Xi has also had a little guess about where he is, here, it is likely to be Freljord!

In Chen Xi's image, only the mountain of the Giant God Peak, and Freljord have such a huge ice and snow area, except here, the bigger one may be no man's land, of course, Chen Xi doesn't recognize that there is a cedar forest there, let alone think that Ruiz will throw him there directly!

Deep and shallow footprints spread forward in the snow.

Night fell again, and in the darkness of the night, Chen Xi began to establish a temporary residence in the tall trees, in order to prevent the possible arrival of wild beasts, and the temperature here no longer needed the necessary flames!

Most importantly, he found traces of human activity in the vicinity, and they were not afraid of fire!

Before meditating, looking into the distance, there was no fire in the night, which made Chen Xi breathe a sigh of relief!

He was sure that the traces he saw were not some lonely hunter shuttling through the dense forest, the neat steps, a large number of traces, and the footprints of a large beast that he didn't know what they were, told Chen Xi that these people were not kind nomads!

Late at night, the meditation continued, and Chen Xi, who was sitting on top of a tree branch more than ten meters high, was sure that his figure hidden deep in the leaves was not easy to find!

The sun had not yet risen, and the world was still in the last darkness before the rising sun, and the sound of panicked footsteps, mixed with the sound of gold and iron clashing, came into Chen Xi's ears from a distant place! Opening his eyes slightly, Chen Xi looked at the figures a hundred meters away and was glad that he was glad that after discovering the traces of these people, he cautiously swept away his footprints with a tree branch.

The beasts, walking in unison with the people, in the darkness, a faint light flickered, and the clothes made of white fur made the group inconspicuous in the snow.

On the broad-leaved tree, Chen Xi didn't move, just watched the group of people slowly pass under the tree, waiting for the sun to slowly rise.

"March, don't talk!, remember to let the Ironthorn Mountain group learn our will of the Claws of Winter!"

Above a blue-and-white wild boar, a woman was shouting softly, not loudly, but hoarse and majestic enough!

Chen Xi's eyes flickered slightly, this was the third hero he had met!

Although surprised, Chen Xi didn't make the slightest move, and even learned the identity of the person below, slowed down his breathing, and tried his best to shrink his breath!

This behavior undoubtedly made him reduce the danger a lot, just the huge wild boar snorted twice, and the team did not find Chen Xi!

There are probably hundreds of people here! Chen Xi looked at the group of departing figures in the distance, where the sky was slowly turning white!

Obviously, Chen Xi will now face two choices, keep up, or find another way!

In the end, Chen Xi chose to follow behind this group of expeditionary warriors, they were undoubtedly going to find trouble with Noxus, at this time, in the entire continent, maybe Noxus would be more suitable for his own existence in the future!

The forbidden Demacia will not accommodate herself, Ionia, the "homeland" she has been talking about, is too far away.

In the rest of the places, Chen Xi couldn't think of anything more suitable for him!

Following this group of footsteps, Chen Xi walked extremely slowly and cautiously, often after a thousand meters, he would climb a big tree and look into the distance!

The melting snow water flows in the stream, and the scattered snow blocks are matched with scattered broad-leaved trees, so that Chen Xi can still hide his figure a little here!

In front of her, about a kilometer away, Sejuani was leading the warriors of the Claws of Winter to continue walking!

Farther away, a mountain range continues the pine forest, and the snow on it makes the cedar the protagonist again.

Taking difficult steps and climbing mountains in deep snow, Chen Xi is experienced, but this does not mean that he will feel relaxed!

Night is slowly falling, tonight, is not a time to rest, the faint light in the distance is still slowly moving forward, and Chen Xi has to endure the cold and darkness to keep up!

In the middle of the night, around eleven o'clock, the fire in front of them finally stopped moving, and more and more fires appeared, and they set up camp!

At this time, Chen Xi was at the foot of the mountain that was not too cold, so he built a simple triangular camp with two huge pine branches against the pine trees to shelter from the wind and cold, and began to meditate!

The sky is not bright, earlier than yesterday, the team has already begun to walk, Chen Xi has already replenished his mental power, he slowly followed, this team, he doesn't want to lose it for the time being!

Fortunately, this situation ended in the evening, and in the distance, in the deeper wind and snow, a tough black castle, like a reef in the waves, stood on the edge of the cliff!

Ahead, Sejuani's men had stopped advancing, hiding in the snow.

At this time, it is the best time, as long as this time, Chen Xi can go up and remind the people of Noxus that the coming Winter Claw will undoubtedly be trusted!

But the rugged ridge blocked Chen Xi's way, and the ancient castle built on the cliff made it the only way to choose from in front of him, maybe there was another road on the other side, but this was obviously not the best time to detour!

Giving up this choice, Chen Xi can only choose to wait, although the people in the ancient castle only need to wait for the opportunity to use an electric ball to make movement, but this will not make him the hero of Noxus, but will put himself in danger, which is obviously not a good way!

The wound on his chest had healed at this time, which gave Chen Xi a little ability to fight at night, but at this time, he decided to eat something and meditate first to recover his mental strength!

Finding a place to carry Sejuani's team, leaning on the cedars, Chen Xi dug a hole in the snow half a meter deep, put two pine branches on both sides, spread some snow on them to cover up a little, and began to meditate!
