"Everyone is finally here. ｛[23]{wx}”

Natsu hovered in the air for a while, confirmed that he was the last, flapped his wings and dashed, stepping into the gurgling stream, feeling a chill under his feet.

"Whoa......

She kicked the water lightly and flew towards the team members on the ground who had fallen to their stomachs.

I don't know if it was because of the huge pillar of fire, the wings on her back are now a little white, lighter than the grayish white after absorbing the hellfire, and they look like the pale wings of a butterfly.

"Could it be that the Elemental Awakening can constantly absorb the flames and grow?"

She looked at the wings on her back, muttered to herself, and then put them away.

"A waterfall of all evil, a flame of all evil...... That's why I hate magicians......"

Ebner lay on his back in the water, saying the same thing over and over again.

Beside him was Sadonan, who had been silent, and he looked very wolfish, and this kind of climbing height was too difficult for a mage.

Unlike before, the arcane mage seemed to have become silent, and there was no smile on his face, which Xia felt a little strange, but he didn't think much of it.

After all, everyone has their own secrets in their hearts, and they don't necessarily like to let others know.

"Woooooooooo......oo I'm sorry...... Whining. ”

At this time, Sharo came over crying and grabbed the hem of Natsu's clothes with her hand.

"It's all my fault, woo woo woo ......"

She looked at Xia's stockings-clad feet and slightly blackened dress, thinking of her willfulness just now, and her heart was full of regret.

"Don't cry, I'm fine, am I?"

Natsu gently patted the top of her head and crouched down in front of her:

"Don't be so desperate next time, you are a future alchemy master, and you will have to make a lot of inventions that will shock the continent in the future. How can you die in such a place. ”

Her voice was soft and gentle, and Sara nodded there with tears in her eyes, unable to say a word.

"Sister Xia, shall we continue on our way?"

Agnes flew up to her and asked in a low voice.

Look at the tired expressions of the people. Xia shook his head slightly: "Let's wait a little longer, everyone looks tired." There is still a long way to go, and plenty of rest is necessary. ”

"Captain, I'll go ahead and take a look."

A wind mage walked through the path of self-volunteering.

Although a few of them flew for a long time, their consumption was the least among the people, and the only one who needed to save people was Xia Na, and the others had nothing to help.

"Well, be careful not to fly too far, and come back as soon as you encounter a fork in the road. Don't explore on your own. ”

Xia thought about it, agreed to his request, and didn't forget to tell him again.

After the mage flew away, Natsu sat by the stream and dipped her legs in the shallow water.

This is the bend of the water above the waterfall, and the flames have long since disappeared, as if they appeared out of thin air, and now they have disappeared out of thin air.

"The first level is actually quite difficult. And it's dangerous, I'm just taking a trick. I don't know if the road behind is the same as described in the manual."

She secretly rejoiced in her heart. If I hadn't asked Stephanie to investigate the relevant information beforehand, I'm afraid there would have been a real mess here.

"Team...... Long. ”

At this moment, the wind mage who had gone to explore the path flew back with a shudder, his head and face covered with ice ballast.

"Somebody over there has boiled hot water, go drink some and come back."

Natsu stood up from the water.

It seems that the information is correct.

Although the plot has changed a lot compared to the original, some fixed areas have not changed, so the journey is much easier.

……

"Hell yes. Why is it so cold? ”

Ever since he was frozen near the airship, Abner has been particularly sensitive to cold air, and hurriedly put on the thick clothes that Xia Rang's team members had prepared in advance.

Many other people also had a lot of white gas, including those girls who love beauty, and the team members began to put on warm coats one after another.

"Little love. Let's cover your legs too. ”

Natsu put on heavy pants for Agnes.

"Sister Xia, I don't feel the ...... in my legs anyway"

Agnes looked down and said.

"There must be hope."

Xia stretched out his hand, touched her face and said:

"Trust me...... Your leg will be healed. ”

"Master, there's no way to heal her leg in the plot."

Stephanie said worriedly.

"Captain, there are several forks in the road ahead, which way shall we go?"

The pathfinder mage flew over and asked for her advice.

"Deria, come here."

Natsu called Delia over.

"Which way did you just go?"

She whispered in the werewolf princess's ear.

"The one on the far right I walked on, because I always felt that there was a familiar atmosphere there, so I chose that side."

Delia looked at the fork in the road ahead, and there seemed to be a hint of nostalgia in her eyes:

"It's a little cold up ahead, but there's nothing dangerous, and I know how to go...... By the way, I'll go ahead and help you open the way first, which will save you a lot of trouble. ”

"Then let's go to the right, please, Deria."

Hearing her words, Natsu made a decision.

Delia seemed to be happy and waved her hand, and quickly disappeared into the passage ahead.

In fact, the team in the plot took a different route, but since Di Liya said that this road was not dangerous, and promised to open the way for everyone herself, it would be better to listen to her.

After about half an hour of walking, the temperature in the air became lower and lower, ice crystals formed on many people's hair, and white marks began to appear on the ground.

The road became more and more slippery, some of the team members fell more than once, and many of the weaker French professions began to support each other and move forward.

"It seems to be an exit ahead, it's very well lit, and we're outside!"

The person in charge of opening the way at the front shouted excitedly.

"Everyone, from now on, it is forbidden to talk loudly, and if it is not necessary, try not to talk!"

Xia frowned. Speak to the people.

Even if Delia says there is no danger, it is better to be careful for safety.

Seeing that the team members obediently closed their mouths, she relieved herself and followed the team all the way to the exit.

"It's ...... Snow? ”

Looking at the white expanse in front of him, the shield in Abner's hand fell to the ground.

"Are we here in Salrado?"

In front of everyone was a pure white world, with tiny snowflakes flying in the air. One by one, they landed on the flat ground, and some snow-white hills could be seen in the distance, and the thick trees were also covered with thick snow.

The white earth, the white hills, the white trees, and some crystal clear icicles hanging from the bare branches give people the illusion of being in a world of ice and snow.

"This shouldn't be the belly of a mountain, but a magical space."

Agnes looked cautiously at the snow in front of her, not admiring it. There was a look of wariness in his eyes.

"The legend that a great mage can create a real world, I never believed this before, thinking it was an exaggerated fantasy, but now I believe it a little."

She stretched out her hand, and a small snowflake floated into her palm, gradually melting into ice water.

"There is no sun in the sky, how do these rays come from?"

It's been a long time since she's been exposed to such a dazzling light, and Natsu squints her eyes and looks into the air. Didn't find anything nearby that could glow.

"No danger was found ahead."

The three wind mages flew back from three directions and gestured downward.

"Delia should be a character who likes to walk in a straight line. Let's go straight ahead. ”

Xia Shen groaned for a moment and launched a transmission to everyone.

The snow creaked under their feet, and the team moved silently, this icy area seemed to be devoid of small animals, and was full of mystery and seclusion.

But this tranquility was soon shattered.

"What sound?"

Lorraine, who was at the forefront, suddenly stopped and raised a fist. Signal everyone to stop moving forward.

"I'll go ahead and have a look."

He gestured to Natsu.

"Agnes and I can fly, so let's both go."

Xia also heard a dull, thunderous sound in his ears, faintly coming from a distance, and a bad premonition welled up in his heart.

She and Agnes rose into the air. Not daring to fly too high, they flew low forward for some distance against the white trees, the roar in their ears became louder and louder, and the two flew towards the place where the sound came from, and finally landed on a branch with a wide field of vision.

Ahead, there were two tall peaks, covered with thick snow, and below was a curved canyon that was about wide enough for three or four carriages to run in parallel.

"Did you find anything?"

After a while, seeing the two flying back, Lorraine walked over and asked in a low voice.

"Xiao Ai, you go and talk to Abner and them about the situation first, and then I'll tell you what to do."

Xia and Agnes' faces were a little ugly, and after sending Agnes away, she whispered back to Lorraine: "The situation is not good, I'll tell you later." ”

Lorraine watched with some confusion as Agnes whispered a few words to a few people, and then a look of shock appeared on their faces.

After a while, Xia sent a message to everyone:

"Everyone take care of their weapons, try not to make noise when walking, do not step on dead branches or fallen leaves, we go forward in groups, remember...... Be careful, it's best not to make any noise! ”

With that, she walked over to the team and divided them into small groups, each with at least one warrior and one mage, and then told them to split up and march forward.

"What the hell is going on?"

Lorraine looked at those who were leaving and couldn't help but ask with a gesturing.

"You'll find out in a moment."

Natsu's face was still ugly, and he and Agnes walked at the end, and everyone began to march quietly towards the two high peaks. (To be continued......)
