The blizzard on the Island of the End, at sunset, arrives as promised. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Call!
Qin Ran let out a sigh of relief and opened his eyes.
His brow furrowed slightly.
"What? Not going well? ”
Shi Qi, who was baking slices of bread on the campfire, opened his mouth and asked.
As for what Qin Ran was doing, Shi Qi had a rough guess.
After all, he'd seen Nicaleido do the same thing.
"Hmm!"
"It's harder than I expected!"
Qin Ran nodded without concealment, and took the slice of bread handed by Shi Qi.
This is the third day of his return to the Island of the End, and he has easily saved nearly 90,000 points compared to the three days he first arrived.
This time, Qin Ran got nothing.
The Island of the End still affects his desires. Hope.
He is also facing these desires every time. hopeful, but useless.
[Dawn Knight Body Forging Technique] didn't react in the slightest.
Even if he didn't stop the breathing pattern recorded in his mind for a moment, he could only feel the warm current in his body flowing slowly, without the slightest surge when he was promoted.
"Bottleneck?"
Qin Ran muttered to himself.
The brow furrowed even tighter.
Qin Ran couldn't be sure if his statement was correct.
But he knew very well that if he didn't break through this situation, he would have nothing to gain next.
It's just that......
How to break through?
In the past three days, Qin Ran has asked himself more than once.
But there was no answer.
Although he had all the knowledge of the [Dawn Knight Body Forging Technique], none of this knowledge explained the situation he was encountering.
In fact, even if Gong Lansen came in person, he was probably helpless against the situation in front of him.
You know, these are two different worlds.
The nature of power, the system, etc., have changed slightly with the environment, etc.
The simplest example of this is the Island of the End.
If there was a similar environment in the dungeon world of [Unreliable Great Detective], the Dawn Church would not collapse so quickly, no matter how decaying it was.
Without it, it's just because the Island of the End can quickly create a group of powerful Dawn Knights.
Even, by extension, whether gunpowder weapons can rise is two theories.
"Island of the End, Island of the End ......"
Qin Ran muttered in a low voice.
Then, Qin Ran, who suddenly thought of something, stopped chewing,
"Discovery?"
Shi Qi asked.
"Just some unfamiliar speculation......"
"Shiqi, I need to go outside and feel it for myself!"
Qin Ran said so.
"Outside?"
"It's a blizzard, you're going to ......"
Shi Qi subconsciously dissuaded Qin Ran, but he stopped halfway through his words.
Ordinary people can die in the face of such weather.
But Qin Ran definitely won't!
"Be careful!"
The final dissuasion turned into an exhortation.
"Got it."
Qin Ran nodded, put on his backpack, and opened the door.
Woo!
The biting cold wind blew straight in, and the flames in the fire pit were instantly suppressed and swayed back and forth, as if they would be extinguished at any moment.
Qin Ran waved his hand at Shi Qi again.
The whole person walked out of the room, closed the door, and quickly disappeared into the wind and snow.
……
Wind, like a knife.
Snow, like a sword.
The knife cuts the flesh, and the sword goes into the marrow.
Even Qin Ran, who had [Secondary Elemental Damage Resistance], felt a chill in the night blizzard on the Island of End.
But Qin Ran was overjoyed.
Because, he felt the surging sensation of the [Dawn Knight Body Forging Technique].
"Sure enough, I ignored it!"
"The Island of the End is special about more than just desire. Hope, and the climate, the desire to deceive people at all times. It is the extremely harsh environment that constitutes the name of the 'end' of the Island of Ends! But ......"
"For me, it couldn't be better!"
Qin Ran, who was standing in the blizzard, took another deep breath, and his gaze scanned the most violent position of the blizzard.
A-level perception, in such a blizzard weather, has dropped to an unbearable level.
However, Qin Ran still vaguely found a mountain peak that was invaded by cold winds and blizzards.
"That's it!"
Qin Ran's eyes were certain, and he strode towards the set goal.
With each step, the snow will flood your knees.
With each step, there is a pinprick-like stinging sensation on the cheek.
With each step, the snow on his body became heavier, making it more and more difficult for him to move forward.
But every step is so determined.
The wind, more and more violent.
The snow is getting colder and colder.
When Qin Ran walked half the distance towards the target, the chill was already spreading across his body.
The effect of [Secondary Elemental Damage Resistance] is decreasing.
The closer you get to the core of the blizzard, the more intense the cold becomes.
When Qin Ran advanced a few hundred meters again, condensed and covered frost began to appear on his body, and the first thing that was frozen was his moving legs, then his torso, arms, and face.
Click, click!
Qin Ran slapped the frost with both hands, and his legs had no intention of stopping at all.
The condensed frost kept bursting with a crisp sound.
But as Qin Ran moved forward, this condensation speed was getting faster and faster.
Even if Qin Ran kept his hands, he couldn't catch up with such a speed.
Woo!
Another cold wind blew.
The wrapped snowflakes slapped Qin Ran's body.
In the middle of breathing, Qin Ran was submerged.
Then, the frost began to spread and cover Qin Ran's body again.
Qin Ran's hand that had just been raised was frozen.
A layer of ice 3 or 4 centimeters in length appeared on Qin Ran's arm.
Then, the ice began to thicken rapidly.
Qin Ran's arm was strong enough to break free from such ice freezing, but as soon as his arm moved, more snowflakes slapped down.
A second later, Qin Ran was completely submerged in it.
Two seconds later, more snowflakes hoarded around, and Qin Ran's trace disappeared completely.
Including the footprints when you came.
Three seconds.
Four seconds.
Five seconds.
……
As the minutes ticked by, the wind howled and the blizzard roared.
There seems to be no more life in the ice and snow.
Then, a round aura full of metallic sensations appeared.
Four in a row.
Bursting with the power of ice and snow.
Rumble!
The incoming blizzard was pushed away.
The healing power began to fill Qin Ran's body, and his frozen body regained vitality.
The warm current dispels the cold.
Not only Sage's Thorn 2, but also ......
[Dawn Knight Forging Technique]!
That surging feeling finally broke out in this one.
It was as if every time Qin Ran raised the level of the [Dawn Knight Body Forging Technique], the warm current from his body appeared in a special way.
Blessed to the soul, Qin Ran immersed himself in it without hesitation.
A moment later, when [Sage's Thorn 2] appeared for the third time-
[After cultivation, the master-level Dawn Knight Body Forging Technique has gained a lot of experience, and the gold skill points required to increase it have been reduced by 1......]
……
The hint appeared on Qin Ran's retina. (To be continued.) )
