Chapter 157: A Thousand Miles of Tracking
The Snow Fox is a relatively weak group monster, and it is a large area at a time, and rarely takes the initiative to attack high-level players until the number gathers to a certain extent.
In this kind of inaccessible place, there are basically no people who come here to brush snow foxes, and when Devil May Cry came before, the number of snow foxes was saturated, and you can meet them by walking two steps at will.
"Ice Demons have been here?" Everyone scattered to look for traces, and found a lot of snow fox fur on the snow, monsters that were normally killed by the player, such traces will be quickly refreshed, obviously, because they are related to the mission.
The Ice Demon devoured a large number of snow foxes, and the surviving ones fled to other areas, and the stacked cats and cats searched everywhere with the demon scales, their eyes getting brighter and brighter, and shouted to everyone: "Here! ”
There is a string of shallow footprints on the snow, the footprints are several times the size of a normal person, emitting a faint blue light.
Stacked Cat's tone was a little excited: "The Ice Demon was more cautious when he attacked the village, and when he devoured the snow fox, he was unscrupulous, conjuring the demon body, leaving his unique magic fluctuations, I can track him!" ”
The blue light on the footprints was revealed because of the skills of the stacked cats, even if the footprints could not be seen clearly, the blue light was still obvious, pointing in the direction where the ice demon left.
"Hurry up, everyone, the Ice Demon hasn't gone far yet, we can catch up with him!"
……
The Snow Mountains were unusually clear for two days, the moon was sparse, most of the villages had moved to the nearest cities, and a few remote areas were still on the road.
After traveling for most of the day, the villagers were tired of traveling and driving, and the griffin was not tolerant of the cold, so they first left the snowy mountain with some luggage, and hundreds of villagers followed the convoy to transfer, and it was estimated that there was still half a day's journey.
The old village chief looked at the sky and said to the captain of the guard: "Captain, it's hard work, can you rest for a while?" ”
The captain of the guard, a fifth-order sword fighter with a resolute face, was temporarily appointed to take charge of this escort team, and made sure to escort all the villagers to the city safely.
He had a sad face, and he was ordered not to rest until he arrived in the city, and now the Great Snow Mountain is very dangerous, there are unknown powerful monsters attacking humans everywhere, and the longer he stays in the Great Snow Mountain, the more dangerous it becomes.
There are also some players in the escort team who have accepted the mission, and there has been no danger on the road, and the whole process is boring, so it is recommended to take a break for a while.
The villagers were indeed very tired, and the captain of the guard nodded and said, "Okay, let's rest in place for an hour, and the brothers will set up camp to make fires, arrange defenses, and continue on the road in an hour!" ”
The escort team is full of fifty people, and it quickly moved, camping and camping, lighting fires, and arranging defensive traps around the convoy, with the strength of this escort team, as long as it does not encounter a powerful BOSS, it is enough to resist the attack of many monsters.
The bright light of the fire temporarily dispelled the cold, and the villagers cooked in pots and brought bowls of hot soup to the guards, filling their stomachs before they had the strength to hurry.
"Go, bring this bowl of broth to uncle." The middle-aged woman pointed to the captain of the guard and said softly to her little daughter.
The little girl's face was red from the cold, her hands were wearing cotton gloves, and she staggered to the captain of the guard with a large bowl of broth.
"Uncle, drink soup." The little girl said in a milky voice.
"Okay, thank you, little girl." The captain of the guard crouched down and took the soup bowl from the little girl's hand, his eyes full of love, remembering that his child, about his age, was still waiting for him at home.
"I don't know what kind of monster it is, it actually affects all the villages in the Great Snow Mountain are migrating, fortunately, fortunately, there are already many masters chasing monsters."
"Captain!" One of the team members trotted over, "Captain, there is a young man from outside the convoy, saying that he has fled from other places, can you come and take a look?" ”
"Young man?"
The captain of the guard hurriedly finished drinking the broth, and a tall young man was chatting with the guards outside the makeshift horse rejection frame, and if it weren't for the kind reminder of the guards, he would have stepped on the magic trap one step further.
The man who claimed to have fled was tall, more than two meters tall, burly, good-looking, wrapped in an ill-fitting cotton jacket, carrying a hemp bag on his shoulder, and a huge double-edged axe strapped to his back, looking like a berserker.
"Captain."
"Captain."
The team members made way for the captain of the guard, and the captain of the guard, who was 1.9 meters tall, was a whole head short in front of the strange man, and he whispered to the team members to ask what was going on, and learned about the matter.
The tall young man claimed to be a level 43 berserker, from a village a little to the south, the village had been destroyed by monsters, and he escaped by hunting alone.
"Well, I still have all the prey." The tall young man was afraid that everyone would not believe him, so he untied the sack in front of everyone, and inside was the corpses of many snow foxes.
"Your village still eats snow fox meat?" A guard asked casually.
The tall young man smiled honestly: "The snow fox meat is sour and rotten, who likes to eat it, isn't there no way, I don't know what kind of monster is rampant in the snow mountain, driving away many animals, and finally I can meet some snow foxes." ”
The tall young man said that his village was destroyed, all his relatives were killed by monsters, and he got lost in the snowy mountains again, and happened to bump into this migration convoy and wanted to leave the snowy mountains with the convoy.
"Captain, I think he's also quite honest and pitiful, just a fourth-order berserker, and he can't make any waves." The team whispered into the captain of the guard.
"Let him in."
Removing the rejection frame and reminding him of the location of the magic trap, the tall young man made a detour into the camp, he thanked everyone again and again, introduced himself as Frieze, and his honest appearance made people can't help but let down their guard against him.
The captain of the guard did not let down his vigilance, and told the team members individually: "After all, it is a stranger, pay more attention to Frieze." ”
When he was the captain of the guard, he received an order to beware of all strangers walking alone on the snowy mountain, he didn't know the reason for this order, he could only suspect that it was related to unknown monsters.
Frieze is a self-acquaintance, greeting people when he meets behind the captain of the guard, and in order to show that he has no malicious intentions, he deliberately handed over the double-edged battle axe to the team members for safekeeping.
"Wow, what a tall uncle!" The little girl looked up at the tower-like Frieze.
Frieze also smiled and responded: "Wow, what a cute little girl." ”
The captain of the guard led Frieze to the group of guards and said to him, "We are here to rest and recuperate, and we will leave for a while to continue our journey, and try to reach the city before the early morning, you can keep up with your strength, right?" ”
As if he hadn't heard him, Frieze looked at all the guards around him, and grinned, "Captain, is there such a total of defensive forces in our camp?" It doesn't seem to be very strong! The latest chapter of the online game "Black Nightcrawler Claw Book House" is free to read for the first time.
