Chapter 90: Night Attack
"Soon, soon, bypass this peak, the next one should be there." The goblin sat in the corner staring at a piece of parchment, his slender fingers roaming back and forth on the map, and when he heard this, he raised his head and continued: "Don't worry, no matter what, I will definitely return in three days, my small body can't survive the biting cold wind of the 10,000-year-old snow-capped mountain." ”
"Well, it's good that you know." The exorcist added another chakra to himself: the state of flames, feeling the warmth in his body, after a day's journey, he hurriedly ate some jerky and closed his eyes to take a nap, he didn't dare to really fall asleep, the 10,000-year-old snow-capped mountain at night is extremely dangerous, and there may be an accident at any time.
I don't know how long it took, the exorcist suddenly opened his eyes, and at this moment the cave was bright, and the fire elves were still dutifully hanging on the roof of the cave to exude light and warmth, and the four team members were curled up on the ground at the moment, wrapping themselves in thick blankets to prevent the loss of temperature.
The exorcist looked at the entrance, he had just heard an unusual sound from the wind and snow, a bit like the sound of something smashing into the snow, I don't know if it was an auditory hallucination, but he was still alert, and silently a black canine-like creature appeared in the entrance of the cave, but it was he who summoned his own Shikami: Xuanwu.
After holding his breath for about a minute, there was still only the sound of the howling cold wind outside the cave, and just when he thought he had misheard it and was about to put away the Shishen Xuanwu, a rapid rustling sound suddenly sounded outside the cave, which instantly woke up everyone present.
"Whew!" The violent impact outside the cave shattered the snowdrift blocking the entrance, and then the cold wind blew into the cave, everyone present shivered, and the fire spirit floating in the air floated to the entrance of the cave under the guidance of the exorcist, so the fierce beast that kept grabbing the snow with its claws appeared in front of everyone.
"This damn Ice Tiger!"
The exorcist's Shikkai: Xuanwu instantly pounced and trapped the cold ice tiger, and the other team members instantly entered the battle state, and then picked up their weapons and rushed out of the hole, after a violent roar and shouting of killing, several people walked in with injuries and carried the dead ice tiger, and the blood on the left arm of the leading team member kept gushing out, he tore the clothes on his left arm, and everyone dropped the ice tiger and began to bandage him.
The exorcist re-covered the hole with snow to block the howling cold wind, then walked up to the injured team member, put his hands near the wounds of the other party, closed his eyes and began to adjust the light power in his body.
"Heal slowly!" After a few seconds, the exorcist opened his eyes, and a white light flashed between his hands, and then poured into the wound of the wounded, and the blood that had been flowing gradually stopped, and the harsh wound was slowly healing.
"Thank you, Captain." After the exorcist treated them one by one, the injured team members were extremely grateful. The reason why the exorcist can become the captain of several people is because the opponent is strong and can use the basic skill of the priest: slow healing.
Nowadays, when the price of recovery potions is high, a bottle of ordinary recovery potions costs dozens of hundreds of gold coins, and once injured, it will take days or even half a month of hard work, which is an unbearable burden for these professionals with average strength, but with the existence of the priesthood, as long as the ordinary minor injuries are used to heal slowly, there is no big problem, and the team with paladins is extremely comfortable, so the paladins are extremely respected and welcomed in various places on the Arad continent.
"The chances of encountering the Ice Tiger are getting bigger and bigger these days, so don't sleep too deeply, and be careful of the beasts that will appear." Seeing that everyone had bandaged their wounds, the exorcist stepped forward and cut the throat of the Ice Tiger with a sharp blade, and tried to pour out six bowls of still hot blood.
"Drink it, it won't be too cold after drinking it all night." The exorcist handed the bowl containing tiger blood to several people, and finally handed it to the goblin Ino in the corner, who shook his head, and when he saw this, he shook his head and sat back in his place, and drank both bowls of tiger blood, and soon his whole body was surging with warmth.
After being attacked by a cold tiger at night, and drinking a bowl of hot tiger blood, everyone was not sleepy at the moment, and then approached and whispered, they have been active around the border all year round, including the territory of the Duchy of Belmar and the Bantu tribe, except for the Dark Elf Kingdom and the Delos Empire, which are too far away to reach.
"Anyway, the ice dragon should still be asleep now, it's only been more than twenty years since the last time it was asleep." After chatting for a while, everyone turned the topic to the ice dragon Skasa, after all, everyone is now in the Ten Thousand Years Snow Mountain, and the ice dragon Skasa is said to be sleeping somewhere in the Ten Thousand Years Snow Mountain.
"That's for sure, if the ice dragon wakes up, no one will dare to come in the 10,000-year-old snow mountain, don't worry, the other party only wakes up once in a hundred years, and we don't know where it is at that time."
"I heard that the ice dragon is the size of a mountain just by one head, and its body can cover half of the sky when it is stretched, which is terrifying to think about."
"What is that, the last time the ice dragon woke up, didn't the sword god Sodros still beat the ice dragon to sleep?"
"Do you think that the power of the peak of the continent like the Sword God can be seen everywhere?"
Goblin Ino pricked up his ears at the moment to listen to everyone's conversation, tightening the items in his clothes, he didn't dare to tell everyone his true intentions, otherwise let the mercenaries know that their target was actually a terrifying ice dragon, and no one would dare to come to the Ten Thousand Years Snow Mountain if they paid ten times the commission.
In the difficult waiting, the cold wind finally became smaller, and soon the outside of the cave gradually became brighter, when the first ray of sunlight falling on the snow was seen by everyone through the entrance of the cave, the mercenaries yawned and wrapped their clothes tightly and got up, the snow at the entrance was pushed by several people, and when they came to the outside of the cave, everyone saw the long-lost sunshine.
"It's a wonderful day, the sun is out, the wind is so light that you can barely feel it, it's a wonderful day." Facing the sun and closing their eyes to feel the rays of the sun, the mercenaries were all overjoyed, and then took the cold ice tiger out of the hole, began to peel the skin and bones, and then cut it into slices and sprinkled some condiments to swallow it.
However, the meat of the cold ice tiger is very tough, the tiger meat cut into thin slices looks crystal translucent, and the taste is also very delicious.
Not long after the group left, a group of snow-white spiders came out of nowhere, and bit hard around the body of the Ice Tiger, breaking out into a small area of battle from time to time, and finally after many spiders left, only the bones of the Ice Tiger were left on the snow, which were gradually buried in the subsequent wind and snow, and the traces completely disappeared between heaven and earth.
