The Tegetus Mountains, located southwest of Sparta, are known for their five peaks that connect with each other to form a natural barrier to the south of Sparta.

However, at this time it was already covered in heavy snow.

In the warm and humid Cyreis Peninsula, snow is a rare occurrence. In particular, the highest peak of Mount Tegetus is more than 2,000 meters, and it is even stranger that there can be such a scene of heavy snow covering the mountain.

A discerning person can see at a glance that it must be the abnormal influence of a supernatural power.

Before entering the mountains, the group put on the thick fur clothes provided by Sparta, and walked cautiously forward under the guidance of several guide boys.

"Ah, I feel like I'm back home." Sidlifa sighed.

"How much of your potion has been digested?" Asker asked.

"And a quarter." As soon as Sidlifa was asked by him, he immediately remembered the inhumane training in the past few days, and his face turned dark.

And a quarter...... Aske was also a little speechless.

After finalizing the cooperation with Andrea, he dragged on for two days on the grounds that "the situation in the mountains is unknown, so he needs to reconnoiter first", and he trained Sidlifa fiercely.

It wasn't until the Iron Cross mercenaries got impatient that Aske agreed to let everyone into the mountain.

Next, it is natural to let Sidlifa digest "Frost I" as soon as possible in actual combat, and then quickly take "Giant I".

Of course, it is not a complete waste of time to prepare for two days, at least all the materials needed to enter the mountain are prepared.

For example, fur clothing to protect against the cold, high-calorie chocolate bars, and non-slip snow boots.

Even the hilt of the sword and the grip of the gun were wrapped with thick strips of cloth to prevent the metal from getting cold and injuring the skin at low temperatures.

Walking along the snowy mountain road, the group soon saw a snow monster.

The snow monster, which resembles a mutant great ape, is actually a troll of some kind of snow lineage, characterized by extremely muscular upper arms that kill prey by violent hammering and tearing.

Direct contact with them will also take damage from the Frost ability.

Before the snow monster could turn around, it was subjected to a round of fire from the Steel Crossmen, and its chest was filled with bullets.

As a transcendent creature that focuses on physical strength, ordinary firearms have limited lethality against snow monsters, and in most cases they are only used to create hitstun, and the real lethal output depends on the transcendent mercenaries.

I saw one of the transcendent mercenaries rush out, pulling out his big sword from behind his back with both hands. Flames immediately rose upwards from the grip of the great sword, scorching the entire sword body in the raging flames.

Obviously, this is a transcendent who focuses on physics in the main sequence, so using the ability of "Flame I" as a weapon enchantment is significantly different from Medea's projection spell usage.

With the swing of the flaming greatsword, the snow monster dodged back in fear, and then roared.

It was a low roar, so piercing that they could feel the ground shaking beneath their feet.

"Quick Fix!" Herman quickly said, "It's calling for companions!" ”

Everyone hurriedly increased the speed of the attack, swinging the sword and shooting, the snow monster was worthy of the troll blood, and he was still immortal after more than a dozen knives and hundreds of bullets, and fought with everyone in vain.

And at the end of the mountain road in the distance, there was faint snow and dust fluttering, as if thousands of troops were rushing towards this side.

"Keep it up!" Andrea even went into battle herself, roaring to join the encirclement and suppression of the snow monster, "Tronlo to the left, seal its evasion route!" Hans rushes forward, Lucas stabs me in the back! ”

After all, there was only one enemy, and the Iron Cross mercenaries were also very skillful in the siege, and finally dragged the snow monster to the point of bleeding, and was consumed alive on the spot.

When I looked again, I saw seven or eight snow monsters on the mountain road in the distance, rushing towards this side violently.

"Gunners prepare, fire!" Andrea raised his palm, then swung it down vigorously and motioned for the gunman to shoot.

The purpose of the shot is not to kill, but to use the powerful force and stun effect of the bullet to stop the high-speed momentum of the snow monsters and prevent them from rushing into the group of mercenaries and causing damage.

Suddenly, Andrea looked back as if she had heard something.

Behind the gunners, who were constantly firing, the girls of the Blue Sword were surrounding Sidlifa, who was doing push-ups on the ground, and was doing it vigorously.

Asker crouched next to her, holding Nola's mechanical watch in his hand, and said in a loud voice:

"Three hundred and ninety-nine...... Four hundred! ”

Sidlifa lay on the ground, her tongue sticking out from her heart, and the girls cheered, and went over to pinch her shoulders and beat her sore muscles.

O Nima! Andrea was immediately out of breath.

Lao Tzu is working hard here, and you guys are actually paddling at a party over there?

Although according to the rules set at the beginning, that is, the two sides cannot rob each other. Ask yourself, if it was the first shot fired by the Azure Sword, Andrea would not let his subordinates assist, and would help the other party kill monsters and harvest materials for no reason.

But Andrea is still angry! He was angry when he looked at Asker's face now, and he was a little distracted when he was angry, and he was hammered in the chest by a certain snow monster, and the whole person flew out of the back.

Thanks to a few transcendent mercenaries, Andrea was not chased and killed by this snow monster.

Herman helped him to his feet from the side and slapped the frost on his chest, the cold slightly diminishing his pain.

On closer inspection, the regimental commander's cuirass had been shattered in one piece.

Thanks to the broken breastplate, he removed most of the power of the snow monster's hammer strikes, and as for the shards piercing the skin or something, those were minor injuries that could be healed by physical strength.

"Why are you wandering?" Herman asked.

"Look at the back." Andrea gritted her teeth.

"It's normal." Herman looked at the Azure Sword and commented, "We can't expect them to do the work for us. ”

Thinking that the last of these spiritual materials were all his own, Andrea's painful face finally felt better.

Behind her, there was another scream of Sidlifa, and Asker was already holding her legs down and starting to do her sit-ups.

The girls were cheering her on the side, and the cheers were endless.

What the hell are they doing? Andrea, who calmed down in anger, immediately swelled with bewildered emotions.

Taunt? It's not like that. Our people are all engaged in the battle, and there is no time to see what they are doing.

Exercise? It's even more strange, who will exercise on the battlefield, if the muscle is strained, and then there will be no fighting?

Stroke? Have they completely given up on fighting for the spoils of war? Isn't it, if you really want to give up, wouldn't it be better to retreat out of the mountains now? Why stay here?

Seeing Asker's calm face again, he suddenly felt some kind of strong uneasiness.

"Watch out for the Cyan Sword." Andrea said quietly.

"You're worried they'll turn around and sneak up at the end?" Herman was stunned for a moment, "It's not very likely. ”

"After all, their overall strength is not as good as ours. Besides, there were also Spartans who valued honor. ”

"I'm sure that guy must have a conspiracy." Andrea said resolutely, "Even if it's not a sneak attack, it's some other ulterior motive." ”
