Several ice sculptures were sitting or lying in the snow, men and women, their faces were all stiff and hollow, and their eyes were almost frozen into ice and pierced into the sky, and there was no life inside. Freya passed by the ice sculptures with some sadness, silently stroking their cold eyelids with her hands.

Just like the scout said before, Emerald and Anika have no obvious scars on their bodies, their skin is gray and white, they have lost moisture and are constricted together, and the corpse of the war horse that knelt down under them is covered with ice and snow, on the surface, they look like those who have been frozen to death in the snow, but five or six people can be frozen to death together so coincidentally, not to mention that Anika and Emerald are both golden beginner warriors, this low temperature should have no effect on them at all.

Freya noticed the hollow eyes of Emerald and Aenica, and in her memory, there was a way to die with such a similar look, that is, to be robbed of temperature by a ghost; Thinking of this, she suddenly remembered the night she fled from Riedenberg, and Brando used a white stag to guide them.

In the misty night, majestic creatures emitting a glowing white light opened their way through the woodland, but what she remembered most was those who died at the hands of ghosts, their faces pale and sweating profusely, and they also had such empty looks, as if they had lost their souls.

Freya looked up, a little wary, she and her team were already in a silver-gray wood, the howling snow wind through the bare branches, and those made strange noises, like monsters whistling through the woodland.

"It's a ghost, the spirits of the mountains and forests will suck people's souls, and this forest must be their territory. We've got to get out of here as much as we can. Among the knights of Cruz, a dark-skinned young man said with some nervousness: "When I was a child, I used to hear old people tell them legends, no one can kill them, and once we are entangled in them, we are dead." ”

"That's enough, Rollo, you're a Golden-tier warrior. Not many of those ghosts and goblins are your opponents. If they come, we'll avenge Emerald and Anika! The knight named Aleia replied impatiently, and he turned his head. He looked at Freya and asked, "Miss Freya, do you think there could really be a ghost in this forest?" "His Excellency the Commander, as he called it, has also been promoted to 'Miss Freya'. Because Freya's decision won the trust of everyone in the Cruz present - and trust is the basis of cooperation.

"Anika is similar to you, they died without warning, what can you do?" Rollo asked, staring at him.

"So we should grab our tails and run away? Enough, don't mention Anika to me, it will only make me angry, Rollo, don't make me look down on you! Alaya replied angrily.

"Alaya, shut up, that's your attitude towards your companions?" Little Pelo finally couldn't help it. He tugged at the soft squirrelskin hood, reprimanded, and then turned back to Rollo and said, "Rollo, the knight swears by folding his sword and never leaving his companions. I'll assume I didn't hear what you said before, but don't let me hear it a second time. ”

The dark-skinned young man seemed to be a little afraid of him, and was warned, but he didn't dare to reply, so he could only stare at this side silently. Alaya also snorted coldly and turned back, he grabbed the sword. Looking in the direction of the forest, it seemed that although he didn't believe Rollo's words, he at least raised his vigilance.

Little Pelo turned his head, looked at Freya and asked, "Miss Freya, what do you think, Rollo at least said one sentence correctly, Anika and they died without warning, even if it was a sneak attack, it was too peaceful." Anika is a veteran scout, no less than me. ”

Freya frowned, the corpses of Anika and Jade and the others didn't look like they had experienced a fight before, they seemed to have died here while walking, but they were four gold-level warriors. She looked in that direction and suddenly noticed a subtle detail:

"Senior sister, did you notice their gaze?"

"Huh?" Nimesis raised her eyebrows slightly.

"Anika and they should have looked ahead when they were alive, it was the forest, and there might be something in the forest that caught their attention." Freya replied.

"What exactly did they find in the forest?" Aleia asked.

"Definitely not the attackers, if the attackers were coming from the direction of the forest, Anika and the others would not have reacted at all." Pelo Jr. replied.

The others glanced at each other, unable to think of anything in the forest that would make Anika and the others let their guard down. You must know that Anika and Emerald are professional scouts in the Knights of the Folding Sword, they are the best nightingales, they are soldiers among soldiers, and they will never let their guard down lightly.

The wind and snow seemed to subside for a while, and everyone felt an eerie silence rise between them, and they couldn't help but look at the silver-gray forest, and suddenly felt a little creepy.

"Did you hear anything?" Suddenly, someone asked. The man was dressed in leather armor with a dark brown robe underneath, and he was the only officer of the Cruz Knights.

"What's wrong?" Alaya asked inexplicably.

"Shhhh Little Pelo put a finger to his lips with a stern expression and winked at the others.

Everyone kept their mouths shut, and there was a low, shrill sound in the wind, sounding like a whistle. The voice came from far and near, and suddenly a loud bang flew up from the forest, and everyone subconsciously held down the hilt of their swords and raised their heads, and then they saw an extremely spectacular scene:

A piece of gray, crystal-carved birds flew up from the canopy of the trees, and flew densely into the sky, the crystal clear bodies of these birds refracted the blue reflection of the great demon tide in mid-air, flickering into a piece, they flapped their wings in the wind and snow, and let out a kind of chirping and crisp chirp, and in the blink of an eye, they passed over the heads of everyone.

Everyone present was stunned, they had no idea that there could be so many beautiful creatures lurking in this seemingly lifeless place. "It's the Crystal Swan, oh my God, these are the elemental creatures that are rare to see in the Mountains of Storm Silence, so many! Shiduo will go crazy when he sees them! Suddenly a knight cried out.

It was truly a spectacle. But little Pelo and Nimesis reacted much more directly, and the two of them directly drew their long swords, reminded and shouted to the others: "Be careful, there is something in the forest!" ”

More than a dozen Cruz knights were stunned.

After the crystal swans, there was a sound of clattering trees falling in the forest, and it was obvious that the crystal swans before were startled by these things behind. Everyone stared at the forest with wide eyes. I want to see what exactly happened to attack Anika and her group before.

But soon, they held their breath.

A huge black shadow gradually appeared behind the wind and snow, and the black shadow gradually moved forward. It becomes clear.

Then they saw a wolf, a giant wolf as tall as a mountain, with a silver mane fluttering fiercely in the wind and snow. Its ears are pointed and long, and they are somewhat different from those of ordinary winter wolves, but their eyes are golden and golden, and they are pregnant with wisdom and cold light inside.

It looked at everyone condescendingly, the forest was like a meadow under its feet, and the Cruz knights present were ants in the meadow.

"This ...... This is ......" Little Pello tilted his head and watched the scene in amazement.

"Head wolf Isis......" Nimesis couldn't help but change her face: "Impossible, it shouldn't be sealed in ......"

She suddenly realized something and subconsciously stopped talking. "What should I do?" All of them subconsciously set their eyes on their only commander, Freya. But then everyone discovered something very strange.

Freya is gone.

It seems to have disappeared into thin air.

Nimesis's heart sank.

But at this moment, everyone didn't understand that Freya was actually standing there. She was even more amazed than everyone present—

Because what she sees is very different from everyone else.

At the moment when the wind was blowing, Freya first heard the howls of wolves in the forest, there were no crystal swans, no wolf Isis, only many pale eyes suddenly appeared in the darkness. Those eyes gradually stepped out of the shadows of the gray woodland, and then formed a giant wolf with snow-white scalp fur.

Freya didn't recognize these strange wolf-like creatures, but Brando might be able to pronounce their names here:

Pale Son.

One of the favorite twilight populations of the head wolf Isis, legend has it that they run across the snowy fields and bring storms wherever they go. But their leader, Lepesser, died at the hands of the Sky Dragon, and they were killed in battle with Milos, the Frost Giant

Freya's eyes lit up. Draw your sword at once. But it was at this time that she discovered something very strange, and the future Valkyrie found that the Cruz knights around her—Pelo Jr., Alaya, Rollo, and even Sister Nimesis—were standing on their horses with blank expressions, as if they were completely oblivious to what was happening around her.

Freya was startled instantly, and the death of Anika and Jade instantly appeared in her mind, and she couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

"Sister Nimesis!?" She hurriedly pushed with her hand Nimesis, who was in a trance, and the latter shook slightly, as if she had just woken up from a dream.

She was slightly stunned when she saw Freya first, then frowned and asked a little confusedly, "Freya, where have you been?" Run, little Pelo, they're dead, I'll help you stop Isis......"

"Wait, what are you talking about! Everyone is still alive and well! Freya hurriedly interrupted her: "We are already under siege, get ready to fight, Sister Nimesis!" ”

"Fighting?" Nimesis was stunned for a moment, and then she noticed the scene around her, she was stunned, and couldn't help but blurt out: "Pale son? How could it be them? What about Isis? ”

As soon as she finished speaking, a scream suddenly came from the forest.

"Goddess of War! That's impossible! Why is there still the blood of the goddess of war in this era? "The voice was so sharp that it didn't look like any kind of sapient creature on the Vaynd continent, as if it was the metallic noise of two files intertwined.

Freya and Nimersis were startled and subconsciously looked in that direction, and they immediately saw a silver figure on the other side.

It looked a little like a human being, because it had limbs, two feet on the ground, long hands hanging down to the knees, and a silver-white skin covering its whole body, but the horror was that it had no eyes, nose or ears, and a smooth face with only a black hole that could be called a mouth.

And beside the human-like monster stood an old acquaintance of Freya and Nimesis.

"Marquis Youxi!?" Freya looked at the man in disbelief and asked, "Aren't you dead?" ”

Marquis Youxi smiled slightly: "Before I sacrifice my life to the true god, how could I die lightly, Freya, you and your lord should have already arrived." In fact, we have been waiting for him here for a long time. ”

Freya chuckled in her heart.
