But the little trader was right about one thing, this giant dog walked on the steep and complicated snow-capped mountains, and his body was so huge, but his steps were light, leaving only shallow footprints on the thick snow, and the wind blew and disappeared without a trace.

Perhaps the giant dog was so amazing that it had made its way around the large army on the front of the mountain and ran all the way up the hill from the side of the mountain. The road on the side of the mountain is even steeper, but the giant dog seems to have been familiar with the terrain by heart, running vigorously, encountering obstacles or hidden snow pits, and jumping directly over it, with a smooth and agile body.

Although the sleigh car that Zhao Yuan and the others were sitting on was shoddy, and it did not carry a magic inscription engraved to resist the wind and snow, but the three of them surprisingly did not feel much wind and snow behind the giant dog, Zhao Yuan felt something in his heart, looking at the white giant dog in front of him that almost blocked all vision, and a trace of thought crossed his eyes.

"I took a look, these five missions are distributed in the middle and top of the snowy mountain, and according to the quickest route, we should first go to the mountainside to find the Ice Armor Beasts, hunt them and obtain five complete Ice Armor Beast Carapaces. The Ninth Princess flipped through the map and quickly came to a conclusion.

"Ice Armor Beast, that's not easy to find, these things usually sleep under the snow, and the aura they emit is no different from a stone, I didn't pay attention just now, and I took all the five S-class tasks in one go, and I knew that I wouldn't take this task. Liam hummed, and he held the ninth princess firmly in the crook of his arm, for fear that she would accidentally fall out.

"After all, it's an S-level mission, no one is easy, we are accompanied by His Excellency Zhao Yuan, so we dare to take on the tasks of those high-level demonic beasts, otherwise this ice armor beast is the best to deal with!" The ninth princess stretched out her slender fingers, nodded Liam's forehead, and said like a child.

"Aren't I afraid that you will freeze after staying on the snowy mountain for a long time?" Liam hurriedly explained, the two of them were close to Zhao Yuan as if no one was around, although Zhao Yuan himself was already a fifth-order martial artist, he had long been not afraid of the scorching heat and winter, but at this time, for some reason, he felt cold and bleak, and the whole person was cold in the wind.

Zhao Yuan didn't want to see a dazzling white reflection of snow, so he closed his eyes and rested, but after half an hour, he felt that the inertia suddenly moved forward, and it turned out that the white giant dog stopped.

"Look! that's the sprout grass, the Ice Armor Beast's favorite food, there must be an Ice Armor Beast nearby!" said the Nine Princess, pointing to a clearing near the giant dog in surprise.

Zhao Yuan looked in the direction of the Ninth Princess's finger, but all he saw was a white snowfield, and it wasn't until his spiritual power shrouded him that he found that there was really a small cluster of plants there, which should be the new sprouts that the Ninth Princess said. This grass grows very strangely, but it grows a little low out of the snow, showing a tip outside, and the exposed part is translucent, and it is really not easy to see it in this snowy white.

Moyo is orc's eyes are better than those of the human race, and Liam also immediately saw the new sprouts, and his dissatisfaction with the high price of the giant dog before was immediately swept away: "It seems that the vendor is right, this mutated sled dog is really spiritual, and can actually find such a place." I remember that the price of sprouts is no lower than that of ice armor beasts, and although there is no risk at collecting them, they are too difficult to find! This white patch of snowy mountains has to be blinded if you stare at it everywhere! Not to mention that the sprouts grow in one place for a maximum of five days, and after five days, they will wither, who would bother to find them?"

The three of them immediately got out of the car, the ninth princess was a clever woman, and she quickly went to collect the sprouts, while Zhao Yuan and Liam began to look for the ice armor beast around.

When the Ice Armor Beast is asleep, the vital signs in the entire body will disappear completely, and even Zhao Yuan's spiritual power cannot be detected, let alone an ordinary orc. If you want to collect their carapaces, unless you happen to encounter them foraging actively, but Ice Armor Beasts often sleep for several days, and foraging will only last for a short time, so although Ice Armor is only a third-order Demonic Beast, its price is also high.

However, even if Liam knew that there were ice armor beasts nearby, he still found them as big as a head or two. He dug holes in the snow, checking the rocks under the snow one by one to see if there were any sleeping ice beasts. The Kierdos Mountains are covered with snow all year round, and although the surface is fluffy with snow, there is an unbreakable ice underneath, which Liam can only break by brute force. Eventually, the effort paid off, and as he smashed the hard ice below him once more, a blue-gray "stone" suddenly moved, and the "stone" suddenly stretched out its short limbs and head, and dragged a long, spiky tail.

"I've found the Icearm!" Liam roared excitedly, immediately reaching out and grabbing the Icearmor.

He was a fourth-order martial artist, and the ice armor beast didn't have time to escape, so he pinched his neck and lifted it up, and his long tail waved to attack Liam, but Liam was cruelly torn off and thrown to the ground.

The ice-armored beast let out a short cry, the voice was small but distinct, and Liam's face changed: "It's not good, it's warning its companion to leave!" He immediately pressed his palm, and his hand lit up with a faint cyan green light, and the neck of the ice-armored beast was gently broken like a wheat straw.

And when he jumped out of the snow pit in a hurry, he saw that the ninth princess had already finished picking the new sprouts and was sitting on the beautiful vine sleigh to watch the scenery, while Zhao Yuan was standing in front of the giant dog, looking very interested.

"Your Excellency Zhao Yuan, it's not good, I just accidentally let that ice armor beast scream, and the other ice armor beasts nearby are estimated to have left. The cold wind came, but Liam blushed and said remorsefully.

"Run, run, let's go on the next mission." The ninth princess said with a smile, looking completely unconcerned.

"Then what's going on!" Liam immediately became anxious, "It was my carelessness that caused the Ice Armor Beasts to run away, wait for you and Your Excellency Zhao Yuan to go down the mountain first, and I will find four more Ice Armor Beasts when I turn over this mountain alone!"

Zhao Yuan, who was standing on the side, couldn't help but grin at the corner of his mouth: "Okay, Liam, the ninth princess is teasing you, I have already found five ice armor beasts just now, but seeing that you are so happy, I didn't bother you." As he spoke, five ice cubes suddenly appeared in front of Liam, each of which contained an ice beast.

"W-what the hell, isn't the Ice Armor known as breaking ice like water, how can it still be frozen?" Liam glared with a look of disbelief on his face.

Zhao Yuan smiled and didn't answer. The ice-breaking ability of the ice armor beasts comes from their innate magic, and it is also a spell, under the pressure of the level, their spells and Zhao Yuan's spells meet, and the results can be imagined, but these are too complicated for Liam, Zhao Yuan simply didn't explain, and changed the topic and said: "Liam, you can pay attention in the future, you can't speak loudly on the snow mountain, otherwise it is likely to cause an avalanche." ”

Liam looked dazed, but the ninth princess suddenly straightened her back, her eyes showed a slight alarm, and she unconsciously lowered her voice and said, "Yes, I seem to have heard that you can't speak loudly on the snowy mountains." ”

Zhao Yuan couldn't help but shake his head when he saw them like that, one of these two people was raised in the deep palace boudoir since he was a child, and the other had someone to do before and after going out, and his life experience was still a little worse. He reminded Liam a few more times before telling him to get in the car and leave for the next location.

As the mission progressed, Liam and the Nine Princesses became more and more amazed by the giant dog's ability - it seemed to be able to really understand human speech, and every time it could accurately find the hiding place of their mission target in the vast snowy mountains.

"Why don't we buy it, this sled dog is so good!" Liam exclaimed, Zhao Yuan listened, and looked at the running giant dog with a smile, it didn't know if it understood Liam's words, and its two erect high ears moved unnaturally.

"Whether you buy it or not depends on whether its owner agrees or not. Zhao Yuan returned lightly.

Liam said nonchalantly: "What's so difficult about this, that peddler still dares not to sell to us? I bid fairly, and I didn't rob him for nothing!"

Who would have thought that Zhao Yuan turned his head sideways, looked at Liam seriously and said, "If you think so, I'm afraid this giant dog will have nothing to do with you." ”

Liam looked at him in confusion, Zhao Yuan didn't say anything more, just turned his head with a faint expression, the ninth princess seemed to notice something, and said pointedly: "I heard that dogs are the most loyal, Liam, if you force it, I'm afraid the result will be unsatisfactory." ”

Liam scratched his head, he had only raised lions, not dogs, and Zhao Yuan and the Ninth Princess's words were very strange, so he simply dispelled this thought: "Forget it, this dog is so big, and he must have eaten a lot, I only have 30,000 magic crystals of zero flowers every month, and it is almost the same to raise my dreaded lion." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the giant dog in front of him suddenly slipped his foot, throwing the sleigh car into a bump, Liam immediately hugged the ninth princess, and Zhao Yuan finally didn't fall.

"What's the matter, someone's sneaking up?" Liam immediately alarmed, looking around with wide eyes.

"Ahem, it's fine. Zhao Yuan sat back in his seat steadily, straightened out his somewhat wrinkled robe, and said in his heart As long as you don't mention the "Thirty Thousand Demon Crystal Zero Flowers", it will be fine.

Listening to Zhao Yuan's words, Liam was also relieved, and sure enough, all the way around, the giant dog ran steadily and fast, and even worked harder than before. The three of them quickly completed the two tasks smoothly and prepared to head towards the top of the mountain.
