"They?" Vincent noted in particular a salutation.

"yes, they. It's funny to say, but when I saw your calm face, I didn't even react at once. Jean sighed.

Over the course of the day, Jean explained to Vincent in detail what kind of group they were.

The human heart is one of the most complex things.

There are magicians who are willing to give everything for the human race, and naturally there are magicians who are selfish and will do whatever it takes, even at the cost of killing others.

They are evil in their hearts, and in order to increase their strength, they will do everything to increase their strength.

However, the evil mages in the North are fundamentally different from those in the rest of the Empire.

They seem to have been corrupted by some being.

They resolutely gave up their human identities and chose to stay with the monsters all day long, and never showed mercy to their former compatriots.

It's just that because they are scarce in number and low in strength, their occasional appearances are easily eliminated very quickly.

They deservedly became the tentatively designated targets of the Divine Empire's intelligence services as unattended.

However, over time, the mutation occurred abruptly.

Three months ago, with a total of no more than thirty people, they actually controlled the monster horde to launch an attack on the Bitter Cold Fortress.

Although they ended up in defeat, their ability to control the hordes of monsters shocked the mages guarding the Chill Fortress.

And what shocked the magicians the most was not only their ability to control, but also the fact that they had a very strange ability to enhance the monsters under their control.

With their ability to resemble ice-like augmentations, they are far more lethal to ordinary soldiers than any previous attack.

So after this battle, there were less than ten people left, and they became the source of panic in the entire north.

However, all the caravans that traveled to the north were especially afraid of encountering them, because they could command a large number of monsters at any time, and they had the strength to eat any caravan.

"If it's so terrifying, how can you have the guts to do this business with Detroit. Vincent didn't understand, and judging from Ghosn's fear of them, he probably didn't dare to lead the business.

"The reason is simple, there is a Winter Patrol in the vicinity of the Bitter Cold Fortress. Jean replied with a wry smile.

"Winter Patrol?" Vincent felt his head hurt, it was something he hadn't heard of.

Jean explained earnestly: "They are an extremely special squad in the army of the Bitter Cold Fortress. And there is only one class in this team, and that is the Stalker. ”

"The lowest rank is the fourth order, and the highest level is the sixth order, and they form the Winter Patrol in order to deal with such a thorny problem as the evil mage. ”

Vincent was speechless again, "Shouldn't they be able to kill the evil mage you call very easily?"

Jean continued to smile bitterly: "They who can control the monsters have all hid underground. ”

Vincent's expression froze, and after a second he shook his head and said, "I understand." ”

While the two of them were chatting, the rocks blocking the entrance to the cave were chiseled up from the outside by the professionals, and the rubble was removed to create a passage that could accommodate the sleds.

Perhaps the heavens had mercy on the caravan's plight, and the blizzard, which was originally so large that the field of view was less than five meters, turned out to be smaller for no reason.

Therefore, everyone in the caravan was even more convinced that their group's decision to hurry up and leave was a very correct decision.

The ecstatic crowd quickly pulled out all the sleds and fixed the sled dogs separately.

During this time, Vincent noticed that the magician couple had returned to the sleigh they were riding, seemingly not intending to be in charge of the sleigh team's march.

So Vincent scratched his chin, his eyes full of thought.

After a well-rested and magical treatment, the sled dogs looked much better than even the humans in the caravan.

The sledding team set off in a hurry.

With a map and a magic pin, the sled team won't get lost even in the middle of the snow.

On the sleigh on which Vincent was riding, all eight remained silent.

The six of Jean were nervous, and Evancy had always been like that. As for Vincent, he didn't think of how to speak at first.

"Didn't he run away, why should we be so afraid of him?" Vincent's words broke the silence.

"They're never alone. Jean agreed.

"Isn't there a deterrent from the Winter Patrol?"

"Deterrence does not mean death. Mary added.

Vincent had nothing more to ask.

"It seems that those magicians who can control monsters must have done something terrible. Vincent said.

The inside of the sleigh car, which had no shelter, was covered with a layer of snow more than ten centimeters thick in a short time.

It's just that the eight people who have their own hearts and minds, except for the snowflakes on their bodies from time to time, have no other superfluous actions.

The light of the magic lamp, emitting light, guides the bobsleigh team forward.

But under the white light, Vincent only looked at the face of Jean sitting next to him, and his face became more and more pale.

Vincent was curious about how those magicians managed to make a second-order warrior who had the courage to join the Tianqing Fortress be scared to this point.

The wind, gradually getting quieter, at least no longer the howl that made no other sound audible.

"Stop, stop. ”

Suddenly, Ghosn's voice became unusually high-pitched, and from the sled in the middle of the caravan, it spread throughout the caravan.

"What's wrong?" Vincent sat up straight, looking up ahead.

"Nothing will happen. Mary's voice trembled.

Vincent didn't bother to comfort her, who was almost frightened, but instead he rolled over and jumped off the sleigh and walked slowly with his weapon in hand.

Avinsi, who plays Vincent's wife, naturally has to advance and retreat with her husband.

As soon as Vincent jumped, she jumped off with him.

Looking at the backs of Vincent and Vincent, Jean clenched his fingers and was eager to try. But in the end, he still let go of his fist with a face full of reluctance.

As Vincent and Vincennes moved forward, they finally figured out why Ghosn's voice was sharp.

In front of the sled at the front of the sled team, about three meters away, there is a barricade made of several stout logs.

On either side of this barricade are small dunges about five meters high.

Therefore, if you choose to take a detour, it is better to go down and clear this roadblock.

It's just that Ghosn knows in his heart that no matter how simple the barricade is, it must be made by humans or monsters.

His scream was not only a reminder for the driver to stop, but also a warning to the professionals he paid for that it was time to play your part.

"Haha, I really didn't guess wrong, out of fear of them, you chose to leave early. ”

A loud, near-crazy laugh came from the back of the drum.
