Chapter 129: Before Boos
According to the "mark" on the ghost girl's body, it is easy for John to find her place, but at the same time, John must also face one fact.
The hardships of the road ahead.
The crisis in the center of the blizzard, no, even more so than imagined.
The temperature is as low as the ultra-extreme temperature that humans cannot survive, and if you are not careful, you will become the ice sculpture you saw along the way.
Luckily, none of you here are ordinary people, lichs, undead, resurrected, and an unknown group of four.
Alas, such a team could be a very powerful adventure party if you think about it from a different angle.
By the way, speaking of which, in addition to the arrogant and rude little ghost who doesn't know his age, the remaining three orthodox humans, a magician, a priest of light, and an ordinary man who is extremely ordinary on the outside and on the inside, really don't know how they survive in this hellish world, it's really curious.
"Can you stop staring at me with the look you want to dissect a corpse?"
Ya spoke, in the same tone as her childish expression, as if to say "you pervert".
"Exploring and discovering new things has been our Lich's quest since ancient times."
John didn't seem to feel that his idea was wrong, and he proudly held his head up and felt infinitely proud of his idea.
"Whew, that's disgusting!"
"Aren't you imposing your own ideas on others, not only me, but all of humanity, but all races are the same as I am thinking now."
Jass expressed her disgust at John's thoughts, and she said them very, very seriously, as if trying to strangle John's thoughts in the cradle.
"Hehe, sadly, you will only care about yourself, and you will not contribute to the progress of the world at all, I finally know why your world has developed for thousands of years and has been stuck in this medieval era of ignorance, sad, sad."
John sighed repeatedly, as if he was disappointed in someone's place. Although he did not specify who the target was, the message was quite obvious in his words.
"Shut up, don't think you're doing great things for the world!"
John glanced at Ya disdainfully.
If one day you can eliminate racial discrimination, maybe you will make your invention public. Although it is not enough to promote the development of the world, it is still a pity that it can still play a pivotal role in medicine.
John knows very well that this world, racial discrimination, genocide, the continuous cycle of contempt, and the difference in status, well, when will there be a "hero" in this world who will lead the people out of the haze?
I'm afraid it's going to take a long time.
"Cut, fiery guy."
John wasn't talking, and Ya said a little unhappily, especially John's face, which seemed to know everything but didn't want to say it, which made her even more angry.
In the heavy snow, they struggled to move forward, and they didn't know what the end of the snow would be like, who the attackers were, and with many questions, they could only pin their hopes on that "mark".
β¦β¦β¦β¦
When John they came to the so-called end - a dead end after spending several hours of long travel.
"Lich, could it be that you're mistaken?"
Ya raised her head and looked up at the sky covered in layers of snow, and the mountain in front of her seemed to have no end.
"Isn't it going straight to the sky?"
Shirley used her imagination to say that she was rarely interested, and seemed attracted to the mountain in front of her.
John silently raised his head, lowered his head again, and wordlessly walked up to the iceberg, stretched out his hand and grabbed a handful of snow and put it in front of his nose to sniff.
Seeing that something was wrong with John's expression, Shirley asked, "What's wrong?" β
"This ice smells of metal."
As he spoke, John continued to scrape the snow off the surface with his hands, revealing the innermost silver metal surface.
"You're pretty good, your nose is more sensitive than a dog."
In the first half of the sentence, John can barely be regarded as a compliment, but in the second half of the sentence, he cannot agree.
Choosing to ignore Ya, John said: "It's not a mountain, it's just covered by snow, and if it's a mountain, the angle is too vertical, so I don't think it's a mountain, it's a door." β
"How do you know?"
Ya's words were full of questions.
"Rely on this."
John pointed to his eyes and said, "The so-called racial talent, as a lich, I have the eyes to see through all the truth, even if I am a creature good at disguise, I have to show my true form in front of me." β
"I've never heard of lichs with this ability, don't you only study corpses?"
"You're prejudiced, okay, we lichs don't just study corpses, magic, props, and even we can even clean up, don't underestimate us."
"No, please don't add us, I'm sure you're a special being in the lich community."
Ya has been defeated by John's unreasonable pride, where is the daily life of the lich he said, Ya dares to pack tickets, only John is the most bizarre among the lichs, and he is also strange He climbed to many positions that the lich can't reach, it's really a trick.
John ignored Jah, his faith was not discouraged by these words, he was right, and he had believed in his own ways since he became a lich.
"Spread out, y'all."
John made a gesture to move, and everyone obediently walked away from him.
"I really can't think of any way to open this frozen door other than this trick."
Charge, adjust the state, fill the mana, control the earth again, and a pair of big hands appear on the ground.
"Go ahead!"
Clenched his fists, and at John's command, his fists slammed into the frozen gate in a devastating manner.
There was a clattering clatter, and a clatter of ice fell from the door.
Again, the fists were like a special weapon for breaking the city gate, and the dull sound of the thump sounded.
Go on.
Again.
After seven consecutive impacts, the gate finally opened with brute force.
"Hey, what's going on?"
The scenery that should have been unfolded in front of you was obscured by heavy snowfall.
It's not that the snow doesn't understand the style, but the weather itself, the guy who thinks that opening the mysterious door can stop this snow, this is not a fairy tale, it's too naΓ―ve, is it still a child?.
"What are you looking at!?"
John, who was spotted by Ya, looked away.
"Let's go inside."
Walking into the open gate, Ya, who was following John, suddenly thought of a good idea and said, "By the way, didn't you use that trick to blow away all the snow around you before?" β
"What about that?"
John soon realized what Ja was talking about.
"You're not kidding, are you a forbidden spell is a cabbage on the side of the road, I'm dying with one, come twice a day, you want me to die!"
The forbidden technique is called because of the danger of its use, so it is classified as a forbidden technique.
As the saying goes, there is no such thing as a free lunch, and the same is true for forbidden arts.
Like the forbidden technique used by John, once a day has already surpassed the limits of human beings, even if he is not human, he does not have many human limitations, but the sequelae of use will affect himself.
The sequelae are actually not too serious, as long as he is given enough time, he can still use it a few times, but for the safety of his life, it is better to be cautious.
John's eyes were fixed on Jah.
After all, his relationship with Ya is not as good as he imagined, and if he really wants to say it, it is just her wishful thinking, and he and her are inseparable enemies.
"Hey, were you suspicious of me just now?"
Jah's senses were much sharper than John had imagined.
John nodded, not denying his thoughts.
"Cut, don't you believe me so much?"
Ya said with a puzzled face, John's deliberate distance from her made her very incomprehensible.
"Aren't you talking nonsense, I'm enemies with you, what if you attack me while I'm weak? I'm not the type to trust people easily. β
John was speechless, he didn't know if Ya was deliberately playing stupid or if it was just by nature, but from John's point of view, the latter was quite likely, he was not a stupid person with a rusty brain.
"What are you talking about, I'm not the kind of person you think I am."
Ya rightfully said that she herself seemed to hate betrayal.
"Yes, Lord Lich, please don't worry, I dare to vouch for my credibility, Yaco is not that kind of person, although her personality is not very good, she often gets angry over trivial things, and she is still an extremely self-egoistic character, but her character is the most trustworthy among us, please rest assured."
Truth patted his chest and swore abys, with a look of conviction on his face as if he knew better than anyone else.
"You're disgusting!"
Ya looked at the truth with a disgusted face, usually she kicked up without saying a word, but unfortunately this time she was really disgusted by the truth, feeling that hitting him would make her hands dirty.
"Thanks for the compliment!"
Truth said with a proud look on his face, his skin may be as thick as the sky.
It didn't matter what they said, anyway, John was still indifferent, retaining his previous opinion, who wouldn't say nice things.
"Hey, you still don't trust me?"
"No, it's you, I don't trust any of them."
John quickened his pace.
"Suspicious guy!"
As if he could not hear Ya's words, John continued at a steady pace.
The vast space is covered with layers of snow, but there is a clear gap compared to the outside of the door, the thickness of the snow, the snow outside can be submerged to the knees, and the snow here only submerges the heels, as if it had just snowed.
Ancient armor and broken weapons buried in the snow, John casually fished out a scarred weapon from the snow and put it on his hand to examine it carefully.
"What are these? Why is there knight's armor in such a place? Isn't this where subhumans have lived for generations? β
Ya picked up the helmet with a puzzled face and said.
"Wow, there's a fountain here that rivals the Imperial Garden!?"
"Wait, there's still frozen flowers!"
Ya is like an explorer who has found treasures, and is interested in everything, but unfortunately treasures are not what most people think, just some novelty and no half value.
"Now, lich, what the hell do you say is going on!?"
"Get out of the way! It's got me! β
John pushed away Ya, who had come up to him like a curious baby.
He probably knew what this place was now, thanks to the knowledge he had accumulated over time.
Looking at the pattern on the spear in his hand, if you guess correctly, this place is the legendary "Golden Country", known as the country of the creation of golden magic, a country lost tens of thousands of years ago.
According to an ancient text, the location of the Golden Land seems to have been in this area, which attracted many adventurers to explore a long time ago, but as more and more people returned empty-handed and wounded, this land, which was considered native to the subhumans, was gradually classified as uninhabited.
Those corpses......
John woke up to the fact that some of the human corpses that had been frozen on the outskirts of this strange area were very old-fashioned.
Looking up, the silhouette of the building behind the layers of snow stood high above the altitude.
"What do you seem to know?"
Faced with Ya, who suddenly appeared in front of him, John once again violently pushed her face away.
"Let's go this way."
John pointed to the silhouette of the building high above sea level, and said with a blank face.
"But I've found other paths, so why don't you explore the other paths first? I always feel like this road will lead to boos......"
Is a woman's intuition so accurate for no reason? John couldn't complain.
He, like Ya's intuition, had an inexplicable feeling that there would be danger above him.
But.
"Facing danger head-on and having the courage to overcome it has been my code of conduct for many years."
ββ¦β¦ You mean to say that you want us to have a hard bar head-on? β
Truth pushed his black-rimmed glasses and said hesitantly.
John nodded, and led Shirley up the stairs first.
"Wait for me"
β¦β¦β¦β¦
John, who was walking in front, stopped first, and he saw a man standing at the end of the steps............ To be precise, it should be someone wearing armor and holding a sword.
"Who's that?"
Yaxian asked her curious question
The strange guy in armor slowly raised his sword and stepped over his head.
"Get down!"
John realized something, and suddenly yelled at the crowd.
Unfortunately, it was too late, and an overwhelming light had already shot out from the hands of the people on the steps.
"Damn!"
It was obviously too late to shout such words, and John took a big leap forward, blocking his body in front of them, and the beam of light fell right on John's head.
Exploding sounds, shredded air, chaotic visions, and snow flying in the sky as if the world was being destroyed.
