Chapter 376: Tail Line

To the north of the snow castle is a continuous mountain range, with snow hanging on the top of the mountain all year round, and the amount of vegetation is scarce, and some are only some cold trees.

Between the mountain passes is the northern gateway to the Marenor Empire, where a group of guards is stationed all year round. These soldiers can be said to be the hardest soldiers in the Maleno Empire.

This mountain range does not have a fixed name, and in historical texts, it is only called "North Mountain" or "Great Snow Mountain". Passing through this cold mountain range, there is a slightly gentler plain, in addition to the terrain, the climate here is also strangely warmer, and from the plain further north, the climate gradually returns to normal cold.

Over there, there are two other countries.

One was the Stino Empire, located directly north of the Marenor Empire, and the other was the Ossivia Empire, located northwest of the Marenor Empire.

At the junction of the three empires, it is a desolate and no-man's land. This no-man's land is surrounded by mountains, and not only natural resources, but also the number of monsters is very small.

Therefore, the tripartite empire has no interest in this no-man's land of no strategic significance, and they all use the mountains as the border to divide one side. This no-man's land in the middle has become a road for trade.

The rumored place where monsters frequently move is this no-man's land.

The purpose of the investigation team led by Lieutenant Colonel Tavlear was to go to this no-man's land to investigate.

"Ahh

The temperature in the mountains is not much stronger than that of the plains, and the wind is much stronger. Even with the addition of thick clothing, Balot's respiratory system still had some reactions.

Su Wen and his entourage of five people rode four ghost war horses and walked in the mountains. With the performance of the ghost warhorse, even the most rugged mountain roads are like walking on the ground.

"The temperature has indeed dropped a lot...... Su Wen stretched out his hand, felt the cold wind in the mountain, and then released a few small magic spells to raise the temperature, surrounding Balot's body.

Su Wen and Ellie are almost immune to changes in temperature, Mia's ancient voice can also regulate the temperature of the body, and the only one who can be regarded as a "weak person" is only Balot.

As for Greenfell, coping with this level of low temperature is not a problem. But at this time, all his thoughts were on the ghost horse under his crotch.

Although he also knew that Su Wen was not an ordinary person, he didn't expect that he hadn't seen it for a semester, and he could actually summon such a thing as a ghost war horse...... What's even more terrifying is that except for their own fuss, the other three people seem to be commonplace, and there is no fluctuation!

Ellie was too lazy to ride a horse by herself, so she rode on the same horse with Su Wen and sat behind Su Wen.

"Greenfell, are you alright?"

“...... It's still bearable. Greenfell steadied himself and replied.

Su Wen didn't say anything, silently blessed him with a warm spell, and got a thank you from Greenfield.

The climate on this snowy mountain is much colder than when it comes down, and even the strongest soldiers cannot maintain ten percent of their combat strength after crossing this mountain range. This is one of the reasons why these three countries have rarely clashed on this side in history. As long as the passage of the mountain pass is well controlled, then the land behind the mountain range will be safe.

"So, why are we going up the mountain? aren't they on the big road??, and you can't even see their shadows if you go on like this!!" Barrot shrugged his nose and was very apprehensive about the mountain road on this side.

"Do you think the people at the border will let you go?" replied Su Wen indifferently.

"Then this is already out of the country, why can't it go down?"

"If you follow them, you run the risk of being discovered...... There are excellent scouts in that investigation team......"

"............" Barot was very helpless.

Although Greenfield was mentally prepared, he didn't expect that the "turn around" that Su Wen said was actually following behind the investigation team! This made Greenfell couldn't help but ask Su Wen the reason, and Su Wen's answer was very simple, that is, Ellie and Mia wanted to go and see, so they came.

Su Wen's expression didn't look like a joke, and Greenfield finally accepted Su Wen's reason. After that, Su Wen also added, Warrent asked himself to take care of Rosen, and he followed behind, which can also play such a role by the way.

He knew Su Wen's strength, and with his strength, there was no need to hide it from him, a little scout, in this regard. It's just that he doesn't understand, since it's to take care of Rosen, why don't he join the investigation team?

At this point, Su Wen's intention is to avoid touching the switch of "system creation" again, perhaps, among those people in the investigation team, there are system creations that are usually in a human state.

As for why Greenfell came, he himself couldn't tell. Maybe it's the adventurous gene in your bones, or maybe it's the pursuit of the possibility of meritorious service.

The Mission's operation was not an easy one, and although it was a rumor, all the merchants and adventurers were almost certain that some kind of terrible monster lurked in that no-man's land. This can be seen in the number and types of monsters in the event.

If Greenfield can show up in time to support the investigation team and make a contribution, promotion is almost a certainty.

A soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier, Greenfell, of course. Otherwise, he would not have been trusted by Warrente and sent on a mission to escort Marina.

If it weren't for Su Wen and Ellie, the chances of that mission being completed would only be thirty percent at most.

"That!" Su Wen suddenly reined in his horse, looked back at the few people behind him, and said with some embarrassment: "Did you bring food?"

As soon as these words came out, the four of them, along with the horses, all fell silent.

It took a few seconds before Ellie spoke, "You...... Not prepared?"

Barot and Mia stared at the two, afraid to come out. Greenfell was also a little stunned.

What the hell...... No, if you look closely, they don't have anything on them...... That's exactly what happened......

When he set off after eating, Greenfell wanted to remind a few people, but seeing that they looked like they were ready for everything, he didn't speak.

Now that I think about it, at that time, he was suddenly mentally retarded......

Greenfield looked up at the sky that was about to darken, and then at Su Wen, waiting for him to give a solution.

“...... So, why don't we go along and ask them for help?" Su Wen asked cautiously.
