Chapter 468: The road meets the wolves, the king of the northern land (ask for subscription~)
"Sigh Rule~"
The Icefield Horse neighed, and began to run through the Icefield on its four long legs.
The species has thick and extremely long limbs that allow it to ignore the thick snow, and the fur covering its body helps it withstand the cold and strong winds, so they can still move quickly in this weather.
Dressed in a thick coat and a furry fur hat, Rook surrounded himself tightly, although he was an authentic Northland alien powerhouse with a high resistance to cold.
But as long as the brain is okay, no one will choose to show their strength naked in this weather, and the strength of men is either shown to women or enemies, and there is no need to show it indiscriminately when you don't need it.
The two of them walked through the white expanse of land, and soon left the area covered by the blizzard, which actually did not affect the northern alien peoples too much, and the main snowfall range was in the border area, and that area can basically be regarded as a no-man's land.
The people who wandered around that area were either speculators, vagabonds, or people whose families had lost their lives and gave up hope of survival, in short, for various reasons, both sides adopted a laissez-faire attitude towards that area.
In fact, it is easy to understand that on the imperial side, the officials in the northern regions have adopted a "policy of appeasement", allowing them to give way, trying to avoid conflict, and it does not matter if they sacrifice some.
On the other hand, the alien peoples in the north are intensively preparing for a large-scale invasion, and if they move people to that vicinity, it is a little too early, so it is better to wait for the army to invade the empire and then slowly arrange.
Both sides have their own ideas, the most bitter thing is the people in the vicinity, the alien peoples in the north burn and loot, the imperial officials don't care, over time, the people of the empire are dead, and they are moved, and naturally an area like a separation zone is vacated.
And this huge snowstorm may have fallen here, probably to bury the bones of the imperial people who died in this area, and wash away the blood that is about to turn the snowfield into a bloodfield.
"Whew~~~"
Not long after Weiyun and Luke left the blizzard's range, they encountered a pack of ice wolves roaming around.
The wolves were not small, and under the leadership of a significantly stronger head wolf, they formed a formation to surround Weiyun and Luke.
"It looks like it's time to go around again, these wolf cubs are like they grow out of the dirt, and they come out every year to wreak havoc at this time."
After calming down the slightly irritable icefield horses under him, Rook took out his two-handed giant axe, he was not intimidated at all, and it seemed that he was very experienced in dealing with these icewolves.
"It seems that your living environment is really not very good."
Weiyun controlled the Ice Horse and didn't mean to make a move, just replied to him.
"Hehe, it's a loss that God still rewarded a bite of food, so that our ancestors found food crops suitable for survival in this environment, otherwise, how could there be human survival in this kind of place, this is a paradise for dangerous species."
Rook dismounted from his icefield horse and confronted the wolves with his great axe, giving up fighting on horseback.
However, this is understandable, after all, Weiyun has learned that this kind of ice horse is not as easy to raise as the horses of the Empire, and in the Northland, the materials to feed one Ice Horse are enough to feed three or four Northland warriors.
The Ice Horse, in fact, is also a dangerous species, but it has been tamed by the warriors of the northern alien races, so if the Ice Horse is really allowed to participate in the war, it can kill many wolves.
This wolf pack wanted to hunt two ice horses, and it couldn't do it without leaving the carcasses of six or seven ice wolves.
However, when the wolves hunt the ice horses, they will attack their legs first, and if the legs are injured, then the ice horses will be destroyed, which is very much more than worth the loss.
So although the Icefield Horse is not weak in combat, Rook is not willing to let it participate in the war at all.
"Roar!!
With a roar of rage, Rook swung his two-handed giant axe and attacked the wolves, although he looked bulky and heavy, like a heavy warrior, but in the real battle, his movements were very agile, and the big axe in his hand swung in the wind, splitting the two ice wolves that could not dodge in half one after another.
When the wolves smelled the blood and saw the death of their companions, not only did they not flinch, but as if they were stimulated, they all pounced on the two of them with blood-red eyes.
"Oops! Wrong! Watch defensive! ”
Seeing this scene, Luke's face changed, and he hurriedly exclaimed, according to common sense, if two companions were hacked to death at once, even if the wolves did not retreat, they would suspend the offensive and wait until the first wolf continued to command.
But I don't know what's wrong today, this group of beasts is unusual, very bloody, Luke is not worried about himself, he has no problem monopolizing the wolves, but he is worried about his guests, as well as the two ice horses he has worked so hard to raise!!
"Poof! Poof! ”
Two axes slashed at the two ice wolves that pounced on him, and Rook turned around to see if his two horses were injured, but he was shocked by the sight.
Not only were his two horses fine, but even the master was fine, but the ice wolves who pounced from behind all had swords stuck in their heads and fell to the ground, whimpering for their lives.
"Master, awesome??"
Luke praised Weiyun from the bottom of his heart, and instead continued to rush towards the remaining ice wolves with his axe, cutting down all the beasts with three strikes and five divisions.
"It's really strange, this group of little wolf cubs, why are they so bloody this year, Lao Tzu almost fell into the way, it's a shame."
Riding on the ice field horse, the two continued to move forward, after the blizzard, it was much more convenient to communicate on the road, mainly because Luke could speak, he seemed to be a little embarrassed because of what happened just now, but Weiyun didn't care.
And after the small episode just now, Luke had a new understanding of Weiyun's strength, and he thought that the flying sword was also a prop developed by Weiyun.
The two chatted and walked all the way, and soon arrived at their destination, which was the capital of the alien peoples in the north of the Northland.
From the outside, it is indeed relatively grandiose, but it does not have a particularly surprising feeling, but compared to other northland cities and villages passed by on the road, the scale of this capital can be regarded as a past, at least it makes people feel not simple and barbaric visually.
Although the cities and villages passed by cannot be said to be small in scale, they still have a barbaric atmosphere only in terms of environment and architecture.
