Chapter 250: How to Steal the Scepter?
"Alright, Vianna, let's send it here, and beyond that is the Arctic Ocean." Rollin stopped.
He didn't wear the legendary elven armor, and in the far north, the green thing was too conspicuous, and it had the power of Vianna on it, which was very unfavorable for concealment.
Now, he was wearing a white snow bear robe, a snow-white bear skin ear cap on his head, dead bear down boots on his feet, very warm, and everything else, except for the Soul Refining Heavenly Sword, was put into a magic package.
"If you accidentally get caught, you say my name. Iona will definitely notify me before she makes a move. This buys some time. Vianna solemnly instructed.
There is a festival between the Ice Queen Iona and Vianna, for a somewhat strange reason, it is said that Iona is not convinced by Vianna's reputation and wants to compare her beauty, and even has made some actions, such as letting people go to the Terran world to walk her reputation and so on.
Of course, the Terrans revere the master of the ice and snow, and only her terrifying power is praised, and as for beauty, no one cares. This result should make Iona very uncomfortable, what is in her head, no one knows, but Rollin knows that if he is caught, then Vianna will definitely not have a good result if he goes north.
"Well, don't worry, I will." Luo Lin responded, but in his heart he decided that even if he was really unlucky, he would never speak.
Vianna nodded: "I'll wait for you at the Frost Fortress, and in a month, if you don't come back, I'll look for you." ”
"Two months. Maybe something will be delayed. And I stole the Frost Scepter, and the Ice Queen must have been furious, after finding the Scepter. There's a good chance she'll head south to attack the Frost Fortress, and I'll have to give the Blademaster some time to prepare. Rollin secretly complained in his heart, he had known that he would not let Vianna know about it.
"It's fine." Vianna agreed.
In the end, Rollin gently kissed Vianna on the lips, the weather was too cold to kiss deeply, for fear that her lips would be frozen.
And then. Rollin turned and set out on his way to the Far North. Vianna had been watching him leave from behind. His eyes were full of worry, and this worry slowly changed and became a color of determination.
The sky was snowing and the wind was biting. The wind was howling, rolling snowflakes, the sky and the earth were vast, and Luo Lin's figure quickly disappeared into the wind and snow.
This walk, that is, for most of the day, Luo Lin estimated that he had walked seventy or eighty kilometers, and he had already stepped on the ice of the ice ocean, which was covered with a thick layer of snow, and the whole field of vision was white. You can't tell the direction by the terrain.
Rollin has a compass in his hand, well, the world also has a magnetic field. In fact, the world is round and a planet, although some scholars have proposed this, but no one has verified it. However, the compass has already been invented.
The compass, combined with a fairly reliable military map given to him by St. Edward the Sword. Rollin barely managed to keep himself from getting lost.
From the map, this way to the north. About 300 kilometers further, Esfield, the first frost city in the Far North, is located.
Well, the Frost Giants look more savage, but they actually have their own cities. Of course, unlike the Terrans in the south, the giants are not very good at it, and they were able to build their cities thanks to their ruler, the Ice Queen Iona and her dragonmen subordinates.
More than 300 kilometers, if placed in the south, Luo Lin ran rapidly, and he could run in five hours, but here, the temperature was so low that he could spit and condense into ice in mid-air, and the snow layer was soft, and he had to always discern the direction, Luo Lin estimated that if he was lucky, he didn't take the wrong road, and he didn't encounter a blizzard, he would have to spend at least two days on the road.
After walking for more than eight hours, the wind and snow became bigger, the line of sight was no more than five meters, the wind blew on the face like a knife, and the temperature was even more terrifying, even Luo Lin's body was a little unbearable.
This ghost weather, I can't continue to walk, the vision is too poor, and I will definitely get lost if I go on like this. Getting lost in this hellish place is basically the same as chronic suicide.
Rollin decided to take a break.
Edward gave him a lot of tips for keeping warm in the ice and snow, such as the best way to dig a snow cave and hide in the current ghost weather, the snow is very insulated, and it can shelter from the wind and help people avoid catastrophe.
Just do it, Luo Lin dug on the snow layer with both hands, and soon dug out a snow nest more than one meter deep and more than one meter long and wide.
He took out the snow bear meat and a vodka-like liquor from the magic package, and Rollin ate it with a mouthful of wine.
The liquor is like fire, and the snow bear meat is still hot, containing a lot of calories and nutrients, and after eating it, it turns into a warm current that spreads throughout the body, not to mention how comfortable it is.
Soon, Rollin was full of wine and meat, stretched out the snow nest to see, it was still snowy, he was ready to continue to wait, just like this for a while, he felt a little sleepy, and fell asleep in a daze.
I don't know how long it took, Luo Lin suddenly felt a movement in his heart and received an alert from the wisdom brain.
"300 meters to the northeast, there is a group of frost giants passing by, number 5, using an ice sled, moving fast, the direction of progress, east. Suspected to be a hunting or fishing team. ”
Luo Lin was stunned, and immediately stretched out his head to poke out of the snow nest to observe, well, the wind and snow were much smaller than before, there were scattered snowflakes in the sky, and the air was as pure as a vacuum. Turning his head, he saw a few black dots on the snow not far away, which were moving rapidly to the east, and they were the Frost Giants.
The only gathering place in the neighborhood is Esfield, and as long as you follow this group, you won't have to worry about getting lost.
Thinking like this, Luo Lin immediately came out of the snow nest and asked Zhi Brain at the same time: "How long have I been sleeping?" “
It's the polar night of the extreme north, and the sky is always dark, so you can't tell the time when you look at the sky.
"Five hours and thirty-eight minutes."
"Got it." Luo Lin began to run on the snow layer, closely following the giants, he was wearing a snow bear skin, a fur hat on his head, and his whole body was snow-white, although the distance between him and the giant in front of him was only more than three hundred meters, but there was no need to worry about being discovered.
The only problem was that the snow was soft and difficult to walk, and the other party was riding on an ice sled, which was extremely fast, and Rollin had to do his best not to lose it.
After running wildly for more than four hours with all his might, Luo Lin's current body actually felt a little unbearable, and the hot breath exhaled from his mouth formed a fierce white air arrow in the air.
This is really a bit conspicuous, realizing this problem, Luo Lin hurriedly took a large mouthful of snow from the ground and put it in his mouth, which pressed the white vapor down.
The danger was not detected by the giants.
The other party didn't keep moving forward, they also stopped and stopped all the way, they would take a break every five hours, they would eat something by themselves, and the snow deer pulling the ice sled would also have to recover.
At this time, Luo Lin will solve his personal problems, and then quickly dig a snow cave to hide in, drink wine and eat meat, and seize the time to recover his energy.
After about two hours, the Ice Giant will set off again, and the Brain will alert Luo Lin, who will immediately climb out of the snow cave and continue to chase.
After about thirty hours of walking, Rollin finally saw Esfield.
On the ground in front of us, there is an ice city tower, surrounded by ice walls, and inside are buildings made of ice, although the buildings are not high, but crystal clear, extremely beautiful.
The area of the city is not bad, a radius of about a kilometer, and you can see many frost giants wearing simple leather jackets walking around in the city, and some blue-skinned creatures that look a little short, looking at their appearance, they have fangs and scales, they should be dragonmen.
Rollin lay on the snow, carefully observing the situation in the city.
Soon, he found that in front of the gate of the largest ice building in the city, several dragonmen taller than the Frost Giants stood guard at the door.
This dragon man is wearing delicate battle armor, holding a long-handled war knife in his hand, and a pair of dragon horns on his head, from Vianna, Luo Lin knows that having dragon horns means that the dragon blood in his body is very rich, and he has at least 30 levels of strength.
According to Edward the Sword, this kind of dragon horn warrior is the Snow Queen's guard, they only follow the Ice Queen, and where the Queen is, they are there.
Since they are here, it means that the queen has arrived in Esfield.
There was only one question left, and that was how to steal the Queen's Ice Scepter.
Since it is a scepter, it naturally represents the authority of the Ice Queen, which is the treasure of the town, and it will definitely be properly preserved, maybe it is the queen who keeps it personally. The Ice Queen is a dragon, and her strength is not inferior to Vianna, especially in this icy and snowy far north, and it is her home field, and she still has so many guards, trying to steal her treasure is tantamount to looking for death.
Rollin lay on the snow, looking at the ice city in the distance, thinking about how to steal.
Before leaving, the Sword Saint specially told him that it was not difficult to steal the scepter, but how to avoid the follow-up pursuit. However, Rollin found that this first step had stumped him.
Regardless of his previous life or this life, Rollin has never done much stealing, he has always liked to fight hard, and sneaking is not his style.
It's really damn it, this is obviously extremely difficult, why does the Sword Saint say that it is not difficult. It stands to reason that for such an important matter, the Sword Saint should not fool him, he really can't figure it out.
What to do?
Just as Rollin was preoccupied with thinking of a way to sneak into the city, suddenly a milky and immature voice sounded beside him: "Hey, big man, what are you doing lying on the snow?" (To be continued) R466
