On the mountainside of the St. Maurice Snowy Mountain, where the snow is already very thick, Harold quickly runs towards the top of the mountain through the thick snow. He looked a little funny with Edith on his shoulder and a large backpack on his hand.

The 'living dead' had been following him at first, but by this time they had been thrown away.

"The ghoul I killed just now was attacking my abilities! Scrap my tomahawk first, and test the limits of my physical strength. They came prepared, and it was unclear whether someone was behind the scenes, or if they had the ability to think. Edith, why do you think they attacked us, do you have any ideas? ”

Harold was running fast, and it was running on the mountain, and Edith, who was bumpy along the way, couldn't speak, and she punched Harold in the waist hard.

Harold put her on the ground, and the little girl was so dizzy that she couldn't stand on her feet in the snow.

She said loudly: "Hmph, I see that group of monsters attack like snakes, could it be that you cooked other people's relatives, and people are here to trouble you." ”

Harold hurriedly covered Edith's mouth, and he lowered his voice and said, "Die, you dead girl, talk so loudly!" I want to cause an avalanche. ”

After Harold finished speaking, the corners of his mouth hung up slightly, and when this stupid girl complained to herself just now, she said a bad joke, an Ith-style cold joke.

The altitude here is more than 2,000 meters, and with the bumps along the way, Edith's head is dizzy, and she just wants to lie down.

Harold opened his rucksack and pulled out a glass bottle containing a blue-black highland medicine.

After taking out the glass bottle, Harold was stunned for a moment, but he didn't say anything, just poured a pill out of the glass bottle and stuffed it into Edith's mouth.

"You hold it well." The blue-black round pill tasted very strong, spicy, and bitter. Containing it in her mouth, the power of the medicine rushed straight to her brain, and Edith instantly sobered up a lot.

Harold took out another thing from his backpack, the scales knocked off the body of the man who stole the little white dragon, Harold had seen that the scales were very strong, and when he made an extra built-in pocket in the backpack, he used this small scale as a fastener.

Now, he pulled the scale out, pinched the small black scale with his fingers, and examined it carefully.

The cold black scales glowed with a dim glow, and then the last rays of the setting sun, a closer look revealed that there was something inside it that was moving in a regular circle, as if it had produced some kind of reaction.

Edith also saw the change in the scale armor, and she asked in surprise, "This is not what you told us before, how can the black scales knocked down from the body of the dragon clan that is suspected to be extinct, have such a change?" Could it be that he sent those monsters against you. ”

Harold stared at the tiny black scale in his hand, but shook his head slightly: "The two are related, but I have a gut feeling that it wasn't the guy who stole the little white dragon. And he has already achieved the goal of saving his fellow clan, why do you have to go to such great lengths to attack me, is there any benefit and benefit? And the fact that we are coming to this mountain range to pick ice roses, only the two of us and the orc Tyrese know, it is difficult to say that someone is deliberately ambushing there. ”

Edith rolled her eyes and said, "Moreover, if I really want to deal with you, it is obviously useless to use such a big effort to deal with you with such a quick frontal attack. ”

Harold smiled slightly: "Hehe, you are also quite good at using your brain, it seems that your brain is not in vain." So I don't think it's quite like that guy's methods, of course it's just my inference, there are exceptions to everything. ”

Edith tapped Harold on the shoulder again, and she stuck out her little tongue: "Hmph, you don't look down on people, why don't you see your cleverness used to learn magic?" ”

"Hmph, I'm only specialized in wind magic, it's enough to be able to assist in combat, and it's the work of an old pedant to study magic carefully." Harold shrugged his shoulders with an indifferent, unmotivated attitude.

"Well, so, what do you want to do? Throw this little piece of scale away, will those monsters just not be able to chase after them? ”

"No, it doesn't have to be, I hope to be able to lure the scaly-clad 'living dead' over and defeat them, maybe I'll be able to capture useful information from them." Harold said, putting the black scale armor into his rucksack. "Perhaps, the action of punishing the Knights to close the mountain is also related to these scaly monsters."

"Oh?" Edith laughed too. "Hmph, you're going to start showing off your combat skills again, why didn't you just defeat those monsters?"

Harold rolled his eyes: "If you can outwit it, you naturally don't choose to fight hard, I have already thought of a place where I can solve them more advantageously, why do I have to fight to the end in the first place I encountered?" And I used an axe again, which was all real money. ”

"One of the main things you focus on is always the money!" Edith shook her head helplessly, but she also looked at Harold seriously: "But in addition to some, oh no, a lot of shortcomings, some of your advantages are still quite trustworthy, let's believe in your strategy." So, what exactly do you want to do to get rid of those monsters? ”

Harold automatically ignored Edith's many shortcomings, he glanced at his surroundings and shook his head: "The terrain here is still not suitable, I know there is a suitable place, and the terrain there is suitable for fighting those monsters." There was a large clearing about two kilometers to the northwest, and we would go there first, defeat the monsters, and gather the necessary information from them. ”

Harold said this, and he half-crouched down, his back towards Edith.

"Uh, what are you doing?"

"I'll carry you, after such a toss, I don't think you can run fast. If we can't run fast, how can we have time to prepare in advance? ”

"Hmph, as long as you talk a lot, we are not a burden to you. We'll let you see what this girl is doing in a moment. Edith snorted coldly, and lay on Harold's back very arrogantly.

"Strap your backpack and hold me tight."

"Okay, okay, let's take it. Mr. Harold Vasa, let's go, let's go! Edith whispered cheerfully, and she picked up Harold's large rucksack and hung it on her back.

"Hey....." Harold was full of black lines, and his mind was full of thoughts about throwing the chick on his back into the snow nest, but he just thought about it, and it was important to get down to business at this time.

Harold waded through the deep snow and began to move northwest, intending to combine Edith's ice magic with his own wind magic, and set up the environment so that he could clean up the monsters that had attacked him inexplicably.
