Chapter Seventy-Two: A Woman's Feet
As soon as Harold opened his eyes, he immediately gently removed the girl's head from his shoulder, trying not to wake Edith.
Then he quickly ran to the entrance of the cave and looked out through a few centimeters of the small slit in the entrance of the cave, but saw nothing.
Suddenly, snowflakes flew into the cave through the small cracks in the cave, and some of the snow foam splashed on Harold's face, but instead of closing his eyes, he stared out without blinking.
The snow foam melted on his face, and the snow water dripped down his pretty face, and he didn't care, and he didn't reach out to wipe it.
Because there was a dangerous animal standing outside the cave, the snow foam that had just splashed into the cave through the small crack in the cave was splashed in by the claws of that animal.
It was supposed to be some kind of monster's front paws, and Harold could even make out the pads and claws on the claws, as well as the white hair.
"Ice Roar!" Harold immediately recognized the claw's owner as Ice Roar, the kind of monster that had just roared at the summit to induce an avalanche.
Harold felt the dagger at his waist, and he was completely alert.
Ice Roar is an S-level monster with a danger level assessment, which haunts the major inaccessible snow-capped mountains on the mainland, and almost all of them will operate at the top of the snow-capped mountain, feeding on all kinds of weak monsters, of course, this kind of monster naturally doesn't mind eating the flesh and blood of adventurers who climb the snowy mountain, but this kind of monster rarely comes to the halfway up the mountain, but this time it was seen halfway up the mountain.
"Listen to the sound, there are actually two ice roars." Harold analyzed the situation, he thought that if the two "Ice Roars" acted together, it was estimated that they would also fall into a dangerous situation with their own athletic skills, and Edith's magic had bottomed out before, so it was impossible for him to let her assist in the battle anymore, and he would have to spend energy to protect her.
This situation could not be fought recklessly, so Harold did not move, but held his breath and hid his breath to observe the development of the situation.
The Ice Roar was running wildly in one direction, the claw that had just blocked Harold's vision immediately moved away, and the other Ice Roar's claw blocked the view of the slit.
A few seconds later, the distance between the two ice roars and the crack in the cave hidden in the snow was widened, and the full view of the two ice roars was revealed to Harold, who was quietly observing.
This monster is similar to a tiger, with white hair, but its legs are much thicker than that of a tiger, and its claws are blue, and this terrifying claw grasps the flesh of its prey, and the toxin on the tip of its claws can freeze part of the prey's body directly.
Ice spikes between five centimeters and nearly one meter long are frozen on the body and neck, capable of piercing any enemy who dares to attack from the side or sneak up on the close.
At the end of the thick tail is an oval ice ball full of icicles like a meteor hammer, and it is recorded that when the army hunts the "Ice Roar", the tail of the "Ice Roar" can penetrate the army's standard steel shield, adding a lot of difficulty to the hunting operation.
The two terrifying ice roars distanced themselves from the crack in the cavern, and Harold could see what they were doing.
Two Ice Roars are chasing a group of about five or six "Ice and Snow Elves", the "Ice and Snow Elves" are elves born of the snow element, with a girl-like appearance, but showing a transparent body. This is also a demon, even a demon with a certain amount of intelligence, "she" will naturally use some simple ice magic to devour snow water to restore the body.
But don't be fooled by "their" beauty, the blood of male adventurers is a delicacy that is an excellent complement to their abilities. "They" will lure stunned male adventurers into their lairs and suck their blood dry.
Harold looked at the scene in front of him, and he thought to himself, "Black eats black!" However, it should be the "Ice Roar" that eats the "Ice Elf". ”
Harold was right, the two "Ice Roars" who liked the cold were not afraid of the cold air released by the "Ice Elves", but they were better like tigers entering the flock.
The two Ice Roars culled, bitten, clawed, and whipped with deadly tails, quickly tearing the Ice Elves to pieces.
In the end, the two "Ice Roars" actually began to play with their prey, and the last remaining "Ice Elf" was bitten by the leg of an Ice Roar, and the other Ice Roar bit its head, and the two "Ice Roars" actually used the "Ice Elf" to play a tug-of-war.
Harold didn't want to watch this boring killing game anymore, and he continued to stare at the two "ice roars" chasing his prey, trying to wait for them to leave so he could go back to sleep.
However, his attention was slightly taken away from the two ice roars, and he immediately realized that something else was wrong, something very wrong.
"There's a human breath on the cave! There's absolutely nothing wrong with that! The man was standing on top of the cave, probably a few meters away from where I was. Harold tilted his head slightly, staring at the top of the cave.
The two Ice Roars ended their boring game and tore the last Ice Elf apart, ignoring the humans standing on top of the cave.
In the end, there is only one inference, and it is the human who is very close to each other that is driving these two "ice roars".
Is such a thing possible? I've never heard of humans in this world who can tame the ice roar.
Harold immediately thought of something more: "Could it be that the same human standing on top of us is the one who drove those 'Black Scale Living Dead' to attack us?" ”
As Harold pondered, there was a faint sound of footsteps on the top of the cave, the faint sound of boots rubbing against the snow.
Harold saw through the crack in the cave that one brown leather boot was stepping on the snow, and the other foot was probably still on the top of the cave, and the brown leather boot was now only half a meter away from him.
"It's a woman's foot." Harold looked at the brown boot in the moonlight, and through the boot he looked at the shape of the boot's owner's feet and legs. The foot is small and delicate, with slender ankles and fuller calves.
Harold narrowed his eyes, and he immediately concluded: "Now those two 'ice roars' are still in the distance, and if I subdue this woman at the first time, maybe all the mysteries I have encountered recently can be explained!" ”
Harold Vasa pursed his lips and poured magic into the body enhancement technique "Blood Covenant" in his necklace, which he used to activate and strengthen his senses.
He is a very cautious person, and although he is ready to make a move, he still has to sense the situation around him first.
After intensifying his senses, Harold pressed his face lightly against the rock wall and listened carefully, and in a matter of seconds, he changed course.
"There are other people at the edge of the perceptible range, three, no, four, all masters, and they are hiding their aura to reduce the speed of their heartbeat! Friend or foe?! ”
In such an unknown situation, Harold did not intend to take risks.
"Whoosh!" The woman in the cave whistled, and the two Ice Roars ate up the broken ice, heard the whistle, and ran back to the top of the cave. Then, only a few seconds later, Harold heard the sound of the "ice roar" carrying the woman into the distance, and after a few moments, the breath of the others nearby disappeared without a trace.
