Tears of pain dripped along the way on the glacier. Ash once swore that his mother's funeral would be www.biquge.info the last time he cried. However, the decision of the young sergeants of the guard in the choice of life and death once again broke through her heart, and her true feelings were once again revealed without warning.

Tears were dripping, but they couldn't blur Ash's eyes, and Welsh's last words still rang in her ears, so that their sacrifice would not be worthless. The pursuers had been reduced by almost half by the time they reappeared, and the rest was left to rely on Ash herself, and the cold hunting bow in her hand.

'Whoosh'!

Around the corner, the first Assassin to turn out was pierced through the heart by a sharp arrow, and the remaining strength carried his body backwards. The rest of the people who followed immediately slowed down, and after cautiously probing a few times, a bold person probed to observe, and Ash's back was far away from the field of vision.

"Damn, cunning woman, chase after you!"

The leader of the assassins found out about the plan, and he could only urge his men in anger.

……

"Captain Rhodes, I've heard of you, I have an offer that will benefit both parties, and I hope you will accept it."

Not far from the entrance to the glacier pass, where Rhodes was leading a patrol to confront dozens of assassins covered in gray and white robes.

"Your target is Her Royal Highness?"

"I'm sorry, but I'm sorry. We're not targeting anyone. ”

The leader of the Assassins, who had come to wait for Rhodes with his men, looked calm. He hates those reckless people who shout and kill as soon as they meet, and those who are willing to communicate will always make some rational decisions.

"Presbyterians? Completely impatient? Maybe you guys should wait a little longer? ”

In the dark night, Rod's expression could not be seen.

The person speaking on the other side can only judge Rod's intentions according to his words, whether he is stubborn or chooses to accept reality, and Rod's three questions are a bit unexpected to him. For a moment when he was distracted and thought about the three questions for a moment, the shadow representing Rhodes had already deceived him, and the two-handed greatsword reflected a hazy flash in the faint moonlight, but fortunately, the subconscious dodge of his body under the wind pressure saved the life of the assassin leader.

"Kill them all!"

Annoyed, the Assassin leader gave the order.

"Cunning fox tactics!"

Rhodes was a very thoughtful army commander, and he trained soldiers with many unusual routines.

Ash had seen it once when he had set up camp before, and now the Assassin leader in front of him would have the privilege of seeing it once, and many of the Assassins had also seen it along the way—countless strange objects in the darkness came to his face: broken ice, leather hats, ropes tied to cobblestone at both ends, cloth bags that smelled ugly when split, leather bags containing fire oil, and occasionally arrows with crossbows in hand, followed by the sound of more powerful bowstrings vibrating.

Soon, the Assassins were exhausted by dodging in the dark environment, and they were no longer at the beginning of their composure. After a quick and awkward dodge, these killers, who are accustomed to operating in the shadows, finally gradually regain the initiative. Although it cost them some of them to be wounded and two or three of their companions to lie on the ground and grunt, the superiority in numbers allowed them to begin strangling the patrol's soldiers.

The quality of the Assassins was excellent, which was not good news for Rhodes and his soldiers. Rod could only grit his teeth and keep putting pressure on the opponent in the grappling, hoping to take advantage of the first move as soon as possible and seriously injure the enemy before helping the team.

The battle was raging at the entrance of the passage, and the sound of conversation could be heard in the distance from another remote and narrow passage.

"Big man, what kind of road are you leading, I really regret hiring you with that beer."

"Say it again! You invited me to try it yourself, and it's something nasty! "The owner of the voice known as the big man hit back with a 'low' voice. However, his voice was apparently too loud, and the Assassin, who sensed the approaching man, increased his attack significantly, and the patrol soldiers looked even more precarious in the darkness.

"Also, don't try to change the subject! It is very suspicious that you were trying to bribe the great Volibell with that terrible drink--what, and that you were sneaky! ”

"I'm a legitimate beer merchant, big man, and it makes me sad that you say that. I told you, I'm just trying to find the Polar Water to improve the quality of my beer, and I don't have any superfluous thoughts about a roaming bear or a village of bears. ”

"I'll correct you one last time, it's the Bears! Not those stupid animals! ”

"Don't worry about the details, wait, I hear a welcoming team waiting for us in front of me......"

"It's none of my business, it's the territory of the Ice Clan, and I'm still traveling. Dangerous outsiders like you are the focus of my surveillance. ”

Two large black figures emerged at the end of the path as they spoke, apparently sensing the movement ahead of his companion one step ahead of him.

"Big man, aren't you afraid that one of them will endanger the safety of the Ice and Snow Plateau?"

"There is no smell of outsiders...... It seems to be their own internal affair. ”

The hunky bearman spoke again, finally attracting the attention of Rhodes at the core. The scene was so chaotic that Rhodes didn't have the extra mind to put it on another inconspicuous trail before.

"Which friend of the Bearren is here! I'm Rhodes, the Captain of the Ice Clan's Border Guards! ”

Pressed by his opponent, Rhodes raised his voice to identify himself to the bearman, wanting to ask for help.

"Is it Rod? Looks like there's trouble. The tall bear man muttered softly.

Although the bears speak softly, most of them can be heard clearly on the field. In particular, the leader of the assassins changed his defensive posture and switched to the injury exchange used by Rhodes before, and really began to fight hard, and the bearman's subsequent answer made his heart skip a beat: "Volibel, you know it." ”

"Wally! They are mutineers who want to be bad for the princess! Not. ”

Rod was no longer able to shout loudly, and could only be forced to trade his injuries for the opportunity to speak.

"Help?"

The fat man who came with the bear man had already seen his blood surge, and fighting was the fat man's favorite activity besides drinking, and before the fight, he had to raise his head and drink in vain, "Goo, goo"

"Don't be too ruthless, I don't want to get into too much trouble......"

As soon as Volibell the bearman finished speaking, he fell on all fours and rushed towards the center of the battlefield.

The fat merchant who was full of ale wine slapped the half-sized 'small wine barrel' in his hand quite reluctantly, and rolled the wine barrel towards many places in the venue, and crashed into another crowd like a bomb thrown into the water. Everywhere they went, they threw a blow to anyone who would not lay down their weapons, and did not mind a blow to the head when their hands were empty.

On the other side, the leader of the assassins was horrified to see the huge bear-man black shadow pounce on him from the side, and after a brief moment of fog, he was thrown to the hard ice and fainted.

The remaining assassins, who were not defeated by the two, saw that the mission was hopeless and the leader's life and death were unknown, so they tacitly escaped through the darkness of the night. For a while, in addition to the two sides humming on the battlefield, only two or three people from the border patrol team could still stand, including the captain Rod.

"Thanks, thanks, you, Wally."

"It's Volibel. I'll remind you one last time, don't call the great bear-man warrior by that sissy name again, "By the dim moonlight, the bear-man warrior swept across the mess-strewn battlefield," and now you can tell me what was going on. ”

"Okay, uh, this is ......"

"The hunky temporary employer, the most successful ale merchant of the future, Gulagas, and of course I like it when my friends call me 'kegs'. It's a pity that there is no ale to give you a drink now. ”

……

Ash had been leading her pursuers around the complex Alvarossa Glacier for hours, and at first she was consciously trying to take them to a nearby sentry somewhere. But apparently the pursuers were also guarding against this, and the night was getting darker, and the moonlight could not shine in some of the deeper valleys, so she didn't know exactly where she was.

The bow and arrow, which initially made the pursuers fearful, were lost in the process of sliding into a valley due to the inability to see the shape of the ground.

Now, in addition to the idea that Ash is unwilling to give up, he supports himself and his pursuers. Then there was the chirp of an eagle that sounded from time to time, and Ash believed that the animal was reminding him of something.

Finally, the exhausting chase for both sides was nearing its end. The ground beneath his feet had been rising for a long time, and Ash almost knew that the end would be on a cliff somewhere. Once there is no more road, she will jump from there without hesitation, and leave her life to this land that gave birth to her and loves her deeply!

Sure enough, as a tired Ash stepped onto a sloping platform with difficulty, he saw a large pile of rubble on one side of the platform, and the cold wind howled through the unobstructed side. So the strong girl, who had been determined to lead the people of Freljord to unity, walked to the side of the howling cold wind without the slightest hesitation.

Suddenly, the mutation rises sharply!

A large ice-blue bird appeared in the pile of rubble, and its transparent and ethereal body stood on the largest rock in it, letting out a loud roar that resounded through the platform, and then slowly disappeared into the rock.

Ash felt that the big bird looked in the direction of her last moment before disappearing.

She doesn't know if it's a hallucination, but years later she still thinks it's a fateful encounter. The sturdy little girl walked towards the place where the big bird had disappeared, and almost gave up control of her body, leaving her body to follow the warm call.

'Da, da' The pursuers behind him arrived almost instantly, and the 'Huh, Huh' The Assassin leader chased to the platform first. The long-term pursuit also consumed a lot of his physical strength, and when he found that there was nothing abnormal on the platform, he immediately took a few deep breaths, and when his breath was a little smoother, he led more than a dozen remnants of his subordinates to follow Ash, and strangely, they didn't seem to be aware of the eagle just now.

As she got closer to the boulder, Ash realized that it seemed to be a stone mound, and a thought arose irrepressibly: what kind of person could have a stone mound here, and why had the people who could have such a mound here, and why had they never heard of it and were so lonely......

Ash's heart pounded violently, and an unbelievable answer flashed through his mind, yet it felt so unreal.

The closer he got to the stone mound, the colder Ash's breath became, as if an unusual chill was coming from the depths of the stone mound. Finally, Ash found the top of the stone mound engraved with the esoteric and single rune that only kings had passed down from generation to generation: Avarosa.
