Chapter 1: Sinners
The snow, falling quietly, very slowly, very slowly, but extremely firm, from the initial thin hair, to the later big goose feathers, it only rained for three days to dye the whole forest into a snow-white, very cold, cold to minus 10 degrees, another month, it is not impossible to reach minus 30 degrees, and the temperature will only get lower and lower in the future, until spring can warm up. The temperature is so extreme that ordinary people simply can't live here for long.
In a place far away, there is a forbidden area, there are huge wolves in it, the bloodthirsty wolves can bite everything they can eat into a skeleton in the winter when the prey is barren, even if the opposite is a two-meter-long giant tiger pack of wolves, it may not have a chance of victory, this time, this place, it can be said that now is the most dangerous moment in the back mountain, even if it is to borrow Zhou Heng's ten guts, Zhou Heng will never come to this place.
However, two dark shadows broke the absolute dominance of the wolf pack.
Today, the snow has stopped unusually.
Two black shadows, one big and one small, the small black shadow shrank on the left hand side of the big black shadow and trembled, the big black shadow stretched out his hand and gently stroked the little black shadow's head, as if comforting.
The wolves slowly surrounded them, and the competition for territory and prey with the newcomers had made them hungry and thirsty, they urgently needed prey that could replenish their physical strength, and the two large and small black shadows in front of them were excellent prey, the route blocked by more than a hundred wolves cut off all the possibility of escape, and the wolf leader believed that so many wolves together even a giant bear they could kill it.
"Hmm, hmm...... Wolves, it's wolves...... Good... It's terrifying......" The little black shadow suddenly trembled, and his body moved closer to the big black shadow.
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter......" As soon as the big black shadow said a few words, a violent cough suddenly appeared, this cough was very rapid, only half a minute of coughing, blood streaks came out of the corner of the big black shadow's mouth, drop by drop on the snow, and the snow was beaten out of dark red pits the size of a little thumb.
"Hehehe, it's worthy of the poison concocted by the Great Demon Guide that can poison an ancient dragon, and even my special physique can't be restrained." As soon as he thought of this, the big black shadow coughed even more violently, and blood couldn't stop sliding from the corners of the big black shadow's mouth.
The taste of blood, very luscious, very fresh, the hungry wolf twitched the corners of his mouth, several wolves were about to pounce, the leader of the wolf did not stop it, Octavia's sixth sense made it feel the difference of the other party, it needed a wolf to experiment with him, to see if there was anything big and small black shadow on the opposite side that was enough to threaten its existence.
The wolf was hungry and frenzied, but his natural caution allowed the wolf to slowly approach the shadow with very small steps.
The little black shadow shrank for a while, and a pair of terrified eyes suddenly appeared in the black robe that wrapped his body, fear, despair, cowardice, all the emotions that could make the wolf's blood boil appeared in these pupils. The fight against the beast is so simple, as long as the wolf feels your retreat and fear, then the wolf has nothing to fear.
The wolves that got close to each other roared and swooped down on the little black shadow, they were very hungry, and the stimulation of the stomach juice made the wolves all become hunters who forgot to die, they needed food, they needed food that could fill their empty stomachs.
Looking at the little black shadow, the wolf who pounced on him seemed to have seen his sharp teeth tear the throat of his prey, let the hot and luscious blood come out of the throat and stain the whole body, and then, tearing open the abdominal cavity, devouring the fat and chewy internal organs of the prey, letting the clumps of warm, chewed food slip from the mouth and slip down the throat, and then fill the stomach, satisfying the stomach that has been dissatisfied for a month.
The wolf is so excited that even his eyes are shining blood-colored, everything must have a bird to keep up, since a wolf has pounced, the other hungry wolves are not lagging behind, they are all pounced on very quickly, the prey is just like that, other wolves eat more than they want to eat a bite, now if they don't pounce on a bite, maybe they won't even be able to bite a bite after a while.
"Ugh."
The big black shadow coughed even more, but its head was raised strangely, and a dark yellow circle of light emitted out with the big black shadow as the origin, and the wolves that touched this circle of aperture suddenly stopped.
The wolves looked at the big black shadow in surprise, the wolf was now suspended in mid-air, as if the entire space was frozen, time and space lost their meaning in an instant, and they couldn't even blink an eye except for thinking.
The big black shadow's cough was already heartbreaking, blood kept coming out of the big black shadow's mouth like no money, and the thick bloody breath was permeated, but no wolf dared to take a step, they felt the unknown, and the unknown represented fear.
The bound wolf wanted to move, but could not command any part of the body, each wolf close to the black shadow ten meters became a strange statue, has maintained a posture still, the nearest few even suspended in the air, this strange scene makes the wolf leader can't help but retreat, it is very smart, naturally knows that the monster opposite is not what it can afford to provoke.
"Hehe, hehe......"
The big black shadow moved, and the weird laughter made all the bound wolves feel unprecedented cold, their senses were not wrong, and the beast's gifted sixth sense made all creatures except the little black shadow feel the horror of the big black shadow.
There was a loud bang, and the otherwise silent valley echoed with a terrible melody of death and end.
The wolves far away from the big black shadow were moved, they swore that they had never seen this kind of rain in their lives, a kind of blood red, with a strong bloody rain, the blood rain came down with minced flesh and bones, dyeing the area ten meters away from the big black shadow into a blood red, and the steaming heat slowly rose from the bright red liquid with a foul smell, which was the heat of life, but with the destruction of the heat of **, it also became meaningless, in addition to making the wolves on the opposite side more afraid.
"Let's go." The big black shadow finally stopped coughing, and gently stroked the little black shadow's head, and his tone was indescribably doting.
The wolves automatically moved out of the way, watching the big and small black shadows leave the back hill one foot deep and one foot shallow, and it was not until much later that the wolves let out a howl of fear.
Not long after, several more figures appeared not far from the back mountain.
"That's right, the magic fluctuation just now came from here, and besides, I also smell blood." The speaker was a very tall and strong man, he was wearing a heavy armor that looked like no less than a hundred pounds, and the four people around him were similar, even the beautiful women who were only two of the five were wearing scale armor with excellent defense.
This is very unreasonable, no one dares to wear armor made of steel in the case of dozens of degrees below zero, the strong thermal conductivity of steel is like the strongest **, it will squeeze the heat on the human body at all, leaving only the cold shell. Moreover, when the steel sticks to the skin due to the cold, it will even pull off a large piece of flesh, but these people have no reaction to the constraints of the armor. Step by step, we are moving towards the back mountain.
Then, they saw the traces of the Great Black Shadow.
"This is, implosion."
A beautiful woman in cloth armor looked at a large area of potholed snow that had been dissolved by the heat of the blood, and the strong bloody smell made her feel uncomfortable, and she subconsciously cast a dispersal technique to dispel the stench of the area.
"The strength of terror." This sentence came to everyone's hearts.
The wolves died together in an instant, and the magic power fluctuation only appeared once, everyone here understands this, the wolves here are all giant beasts with a length of more than two meters, and they can bite a well-trained veteran to death in one bite, although any of them can easily kill these wolves, but it will definitely not be so clean and neat, the more subtle the real master, the more powerful he can reflect, and the same is true for killing the great magic guide in front of him.
"More than 30 implosion techniques in an instant, and it's all together, should I say that I really deserve to be one of the supreme mages of the Great * Mage Tower, the great master of the Elsi Republic?"
The other woman looked at the ground, her powerful vision and speed of thought allowing her to count in an instant how many lives had been lost in the instantaneous implosion.
The implosion technique is a powerful spell that can only be used by high-level magicians, and it is almost the nemesis of all kinds of monsters and warriors with thick skin and magic reduction ability, no matter how strong the defense is on the outside, it is just a weak lump of flesh on the inside, and ordinary high-level magicians have to chant for a very long time to send out this magic, and the supreme mage actually sent out more than thirty implosion techniques instantly and at one time, this kind of mental control and elemental mastery ability is almost unimaginable.
"It's too late to retreat now, he is one of the only three recognized archmages in the world, and he is also the most destructive fire type archmage, it is said that he has also practiced spiritual magic and soul magic, and those who fall into his hands will be drained and refined, I don't want to die and be restless. Boss, money can't be spent and earned, so why bother fighting with this monster that can rival Gu Long. ”
The rest of the people pursed their lips, what does the Great Demon Guide represent, it is power, it is power, it is the origin of all beings, it is the pinnacle of everything, if it is not for this great Demon Guide who has committed a big taboo, which guy who does not want to die dares to pull out the tiger whiskers of the Great Demon Guide. "That's enough, Helan, even if he is an ancient dragon-like monster, he has already eaten the 'Touch of the Source Body' made by another necromancer, this poison will have to kneel even if the ancient dragon encounters it, don't forget that he killed the three leaders of the Nolan Holy Knights when he rushed out of the royal city of Montu, and his body is already at the end of the crossbow, and the second among us is also a mid-level warrior, do you think we can't take a dying person?"
The man who was called the boss turned his head, and everyone felt that their breathing stopped, it was a cheek like a huge mountain, with a stiff but comfortable-looking line, and the same was true of the facial features on the face, which looked like a rough line roughly outlined by an eclectic sculptor with a woodcutter, and the whole face was rough like a beast, vigorous and wild wanton, but his momentum was very steady, as steady as his feet grew on the ground, and he was the only one who walked on the ground when everyone stood unsteadily on the snow.
Moreover, his words were very infectious, and the military spirit disturbed by Helan was calmed down by him as soon as he said it.
"No, boss, I didn't agree from the beginning, we have lived very well, as the twelve major mercenary groups in the mainland, the 'Split Teeth' mercenary group, we have long been short of food and clothing, so why bother to do this kind of task that may not be completely dead, people are great magicians, what are we, we are not even an ant in front of him." Helan argued fiercely.
"Hmph, it turns out that the iron-blooded mercenaries of the so-called 'Split Teeth' mercenary group are just scum, and they are about to run away without even seeing the enemy." Midland disdainfully pulled out a wand from his bosom that was less than a meter old but shone with a charming light. She is the magician in this group, with the strongest attack power and support ability, as a noble magician, she naturally looks down on the crude mercenaries who smell of blood.
Helan suddenly became angry: "Hmph, eldest miss, how many times have you been out of the door besides staying in your magic academy, what other animal corpses have you seen except quietly waiting for your servants and cooks to serve you delicious food, you are a waste who nests at home and relies on the protection of your ancestors, walking in the school and listening to the rewards of teachers and classmates, you don't know the fierceness and horror of the battle, have you ever eaten on the corpses of countless maggots?" Have you ever tried to crawl for two days with broken feet before finding the pain of rescue? You don't, you don't know my life at all......"
"So what, I'm at least more courageous than you......" Midland's eyes widened, her eyes were full of arrogance, as a nobleman, she had no idea what to call arrogance since she was a child.
Helan was furious and actually quarreled with Midland.
