Chapter 248: Frost Forest Sea, Avalanche and Giant Monsters
Following.
As soon as the sun rose, the convoy of the adventuring group drove out of the Ice Peak Station, where it had snowed heavily last night, and the road outside was covered in a thick layer of snow.
In order to prevent the wheels of the carriage from slipping, Manhattan organized some iron chains to wrap around the wheels and wrap the horses' hooves in some thick cotton cloth to prevent them from getting stuck in the snow so that they could not easily get stuck in the snow.
As soon as they were ready, Manhattan loudly announced that they would continue their journey to the Frosty Forest, the destination of their mission, leaving a trail of varying shades in the snow.
The person in charge of driving is still Morley, after last night's incident, now Morley, this kid, really regards Ruan Chi as an idol, and packs a ticket to say that all the heavy work will be contracted by him alone.
Seeing this, Ruan Chi was also happy to relax, and ran to the roof of the car and lay down in a comfortable position.
Opening the system map, Ruan Chi calculated how far he was from the Wolf Clan's Holy Land, according to the overlook map shown on the map, he was now starting from the Ice Peak Post Station, and after passing a snow-capped mountain behind the post station, he could see the Frost Forest Sea, and the northernmost part of the Forest Sea was the lair of the Demon Spotted Leopard that was the target of this mission-Rakshasa Valley.
As for the Wolf Clan's Holy Land that Ruan Chi was going to, it happened to be behind the Rakshasa Valley, and the Rakshasa Valley was the only way to the Wolf Clan's Holy Land.
"In other words, if I want to go to the Wolf Clan's Holy Land, I must pass through the Rakshasa Valley, and at this rate, I can estimate where I can reach before the sun goes down tonight."
Ruan Chi opened the taskbar again, which showed that there were still 2 days left for the storage time of the Wolf Clan's Secret Treasure, which meant that Ruan Chi still had 2 days to transport the Wolf Clan's Secret Treasure to the Wolf Clan's Holy Land.
The weather is not bad today, the sun has been hanging high. Although the snow affected the speed of the convoy. However, there is no wind and snow to stop it. The overall speed of the team was still a little faster than yesterday, especially when it came to the descent, and Manhattan asked everyone to speed up.
As time went by, almost noon, the middle convoy stopped for a meal, rested for half an hour and then continued to set off.
System: You've found the Frost Sea!
Ruan Chi stood on the roof of the carriage. You can see the forest sea in front of you, it is a huge forest full of tall trees, because it is covered with a layer of ice and snow, the whole forest looks like a rolling white wave under the reflection of the sun, no wonder this place is called the frost forest sea.
"The Rakshasa Valley is in the forest sea, remember, in addition to the demon leopard where it lives, there are many powerful demonic beasts in this frost forest sea, if you can, everyone should try to keep the sound as low as possible. Don't disturb the powerful monsters inside. Before leaving, Manhattan spoke.
The convoy descended along the mountain road. Quickly entering the range of the Frost Forest Sea, surrounded by huge trees towering into the sky, Ruan Chi almost felt as if he was in a giant country.
Unlike the trees in the Elven Forest, the trees here seem to have been growing for a long time, and the roots of the trees are like dragon's whiskers, and almost every tree needs to be hugged by more than ten people.
In order to avoid unnecessary battles, everyone tried to lower their voices as much as possible after entering the frost forest, and Ruan Chi was surprised by the huge trees around him at first, and there was nothing special to pay attention to later, so he lay down on the roof of the car again and dozed off.
Two hours later.
The convoy came to the depths of the Frost Forest, where the trees were even taller and darker because of the lack of sunlight in some places.
Ruan Chi, who was asleep, suddenly sat up with a stirring sound in front of him, and when he just opened his eyes, a group of black bird-shaped demonic beasts flew out of the dense canopy above his head.
"What's going on?" Ruan Chi jumped off the roof of the car and landed next to Morley and asked.
"I don't know, just now the Manhattan Commander sent the third and fourth teams into the Rakshasa Valley to explore the way, but after waiting for a while, there were several roars of wild beasts in the valley, and this alarmed other demonic beasts around." Morley said in a panic.
When Ruan Chi heard this, he found that the convoy had arrived at the Rakshasa Valley during his nap, this so-called Rakshasa Valley was actually part of the Frost Forest Sea, and he saw that deep in the forest ahead, there was an entrance to the valley, and the cliffs on both sides were hung with ice, hanging on both sides of the valley entrance like an upside-down sword.
The convoy stopped a hundred meters away from the entrance of the valley, and because Ruan Chi was the fifth squad, he was farther away from the entrance, and when he looked at the entrance, he only saw a deep hole.
Not long after the commotion just now, a group of stumbling figures suddenly ran out of the entrance of the Rakshasa Valley, and they were the people of the third and fourth squads who were in charge of entering and exploring the way.
"Commander, it's terrible, it's an avalanche, run!" As soon as those people ran out, they brought back terrible news.
Manhattan's face changed and he was about to ask what was going on, when there was a sudden rumbling sound in the direction of the Rakshasa Valley, and then everyone felt a violent tremor under their feet.
Barely waiting for everyone to react, a white wave suddenly surged out in front of him, and Ruan Chi also felt the light above his head dim for a moment.
With such a terrifying avalanche, Manhattan couldn't help but change his expression and shouted at everyone: "Run!" ”
When the sudden snow surge arrived, many people did not react, and even if they were stunned by the overwhelming ice and snow in front of them.
The men didn't have time to escape, and there was an earth-shattering scream from their mouths, and the ice and snow penetrated through their eyes, ears, mouths, and noses, and soon flooded their bodies.
Seeing a large wave of snow rolling over, Ruan Chi immediately jumped out of the carriage, but Mo Li beside him was obviously stunned and sat motionless.
Although it was just a general acquaintance, he still got along well with this guy, Ruan Chi hurriedly ran back, and without saying a word, he carried the stunned Morley on his shoulder.
"Spear Assault!"
Ruan Chi activated his skill, and his body immediately turned into a faint phantom across a distance of tens of meters, and at this time, the carriage they were waiting for was engulfed. Disintegrated in an instant.
However, the crisis has not yet been resolved. In order to avoid the monstrous waves behind him. Ruan Chi rushed forward as fast as he could, and the scenery on both sides quickly retreated, and occasionally the screams of others being swallowed by an avalanche sounded.
Ruan Chi also considered jumping on the giant trees around him at first, but he underestimated the white torrent caused by the avalanche, under the impact of tens of millions of tons of snow, these towering giant trees seemed to become small branches tumbling in the waves, Ruan Chi saw with his own eyes that several large trees hugged by ten people were washed away by the snow waves, so he immediately dispelled this idea.
In one breath, I sprinted for a distance of nearly a kilometer. The voice behind him gradually subsided, and it was not until a safe place that Ruan Chi put down Mo Li on his shoulder.
This guy was already stupid, he didn't know that he had escaped death, and Ruan Chi couldn't take care of him, so he found a high place to look at the place where the convoy was staying.
Because everyone ran away separately, when he came here, Ruan Chi didn't know how many people had survived, but looking at the snow-covered forest in front of him, there was no living person. Except for the vast area of ice fog caused by the avalanche, I couldn't see anything clearly.
"What the hell is going on?" Ruan Chi muttered. Immediately open the system map, because of the avalanche, the terrain displayed on the entire map has undergone heavy changes, and what is more troublesome is that the only passage to the wolf clan's holy land, the Rakshasa Valley, is blocked by the snow gushing out of the avalanche.
This kind of thing happened at a critical time, and Ruan Chi now has a feeling of wanting to cry without tears.
At this time, Morley seemed to have come to his senses, Ruan Chi saw him standing up with his back to him, and was about to walk over and ask him if he was injured, but he didn't expect Morley to suddenly open his mouth and say, "Host, there is a high-energy reaction ahead." ”
With a sluggish expression, a tablet mechanical tone, and an out-of-focus gaze, Ruan Chi immediately knew that Morley's body was occupied by dark blue.
"Eldest sister, can you tell me in advance next time you appear? Is it necessary to be so sudden every time? Ruan Chi said helplessly.
Although he complained a little, Ruan Chi didn't hear the warning prompt of Deep Blue, so he changed to a solemn expression and asked, "When you say high-energy reaction, do you mean the group copy?" ”
"No, this high-energy reaction is moving, it should be a high-level lifeform." The dark blue face that controlled Molly's body said expressionlessly.
"High-level lifeforms? Is it a boss? ”
When Ruan Chi was puzzled, Deep Blue suddenly said, "It's here!" ”
As soon as the words fell, the ice mist in front of him stirred without warning, and then, Ruan Chi saw a scene that he could not imagine in his life, only to see that inside the ice mist, there was an unimaginably large black shadow moving.
It was really huge, like a small mountain, standing right on the cliff on one side of the Rakshasa Valley, it seemed to be moving towards Ruan Chi, and with every step, the ground would shake, and the snowflakes that lay on the ground jumped and jumped like boiling water droplets on a hot pool.
"Boom" "Boom"
Finally, the black shadow rushed out of the area shrouded in ice mist, and the first thing that caught Ruan Chi's eyes was a huge cow's hoof, which trampled the entire ground into a net and cracked with a "boom".
"Is this a minotaur?"
The appearance of the monster is clearly a minotaur, but it is different from ordinary minotaurs.
First of all, the volume is inevitably too large, comparable to the bones of the Beamon giant beast that Ruan Chi has seen in his impression, and it is a hundred zhang tall, almost the size of a small mountain. Secondly, although its appearance is that of a minotaur, its body is covered with a layer of black hair, and from a distance, it looks like a yak monster that can stand on two feet.
Although the monster had a red name on its head, but because the distance was too far, it was not clear at all, Ruan Chi tried to throw a reconnaissance technique at it, but unfortunately it failed several times in a row, proving that the monster's level was beyond Ruan Chi's reconnaissance range.
"Moo!"
The monster let out a roar similar to a cow's cry, and walked forward with two cow hooves, but fortunately, Ruan Chi's size was too small in the eyes of the other party, like an ant on the ground, it didn't seem to notice that the two people under its feet went all the way, and soon walked past Ruan Chi and Shenlan's heads.
Seizing this opportunity, Ruan Chi took Deep Blue to hide behind a rock, and then secretly watched the Minotaur monster walk in the direction of the distance.
"Could it be someone else's lost pet?" Ruan Chi looked blankly at the figure of the minotaur leaving and muttered to himself. (To be continued......)
