Chapter Ninety-Three: Frost and Snow Mountain
As for the so-called trial, Leach finally agreed.
Because both Leach and Saya were visiting the prairie for the first time, Nilk deliberately sent Kuma, who was already injured, to lead the two of them, after all, they were more familiar with each other.
Riding a horse, Leach couldn't help but think of some of the secrets that Nilk had revealed to him before he set off.
At that time, when Leach heard that the trial was asking him to provoke Bingluan, his first reaction was that Nilk wanted him to die, but after thinking about it, he didn't seem to have offended him, so he immediately asked the doubts in his heart.
"Trials are hard, but if you know what you can get in the Desert of Death, you won't think I'm trying to make things difficult for you. ”
Leach was still slandering, Nilk was obviously looking for someone to help, and he pretended to be a good test to get out, the trial was a trial, and he was given a task to find trouble with high-level Warcraft, is this looking for someone to help or someone else is looking for you to help?
But after listening to Nilk's explanation, Leach knew that there was something else hidden in this, and he couldn't help but be curious. I don't know what treasures can be in the desert to make the Wind Owl tribe set such a high threshold.
"In the Desert of Death, there is a gift from the god of the steppe to the guests of the prairie!"
Seeing that Nilk's face was full of reverence, although Leach was not very interested in the words of any god or something, he still followed his words and asked, "Then I don't know what kind of gift it is?"
"I don't know about Richie, have you heard of the four-leaf ice ling?"
"Four-leaf ice ling? I think I've heard it somewhere. Leach frowned, "Patriarch Nilk, can you tell me about the function of the four-leaf ice ling?" ”
"Hehe, four-leaf ice cream has only one effect, that is, it can improve a person's physique, and different people will have different effects when they take it, and will only turn one of their most prominent characteristics into the most perfect state. To put it simply, if a warrior takes the four-leaf ice ling, then he will get twice the result with half the effort when he cultivates Douqi, and if he is a mage, he will become a magic wizard. How's it going, do you remember?"
"I remembered!" Leach slapped his thigh and said in disbelief, "Patriarch Nilk, are you saying that the four-leaf ice cube was found in the Death Desert?
The reason why Leach is like this is that the effect of the four-leaf ice cream is too against the sky, and it is no exaggeration to say that even a person whose talent is too dull to be dull anymore and no one in the world is willing to teach him can become a genius.
When he was a child, Leach was forced by Wright to read a book in his study after practicing, and happened to see an introduction to the four-leaf ice ling.
At that time, Leach fantasized that he would be able to take this treasure, so that he would not have to practice so hard every day, and with a little effort, he would be able to achieve the goal set for him by Wright and Michael.
With this in mind, Leach was particularly concerned about the four-leaf ice cream for a while, and would pester Wright to ask for information about the four-leaf ice cream when he had nothing to do.
Through Wright, Leach knew that the four-leaf ice cube seemed to only appear in the Federation, and nowhere else, and after knowing this information, Leach had to give up the idea of wanting to be lazy and take shortcuts.
At that time, Wright guessed that there should be a special place in the Federation where this kind of anti-heaven treasure would be produced, but he didn't expect that the real place of origin would be in the Death Desert deep in the prairie.
Wright once analyzed with Leach that it was precisely because the Federation got the four-leaf ice cube that it gradually opened up the gap with the empire in terms of high-end combat power, so that the empire was almost destroyed by the Federation later.
Now after learning that the four-leaf ice cube is produced in the Death Desert, Leach suddenly understands why the Federation suddenly thought of occupying the land of the prairie a hundred years ago, in addition to the well-known desire to expand the territory, the deeper purpose is probably to completely control the four-leaf ice cube in his own hands.
At the same time, this also explains why the Federation will do some angry things in the war of aggression against the prairie, which should be to cover up the news of the four-leaf ice as much as possible, so as not to cause other forces to interfere and ruin the big thing.
"Hehe, isn't it surprising? That's why I said this is a gift from the god of the steppe to the non-steppe people. Leach's brief silence made Nilk mistakenly think that he was startled by the news that he had broken the news, and he couldn't help but laugh.
"It was a real shock. Coming back to his senses, Leach didn't explain much, "By the way, Patriarch Nilke, you just said that the four-leaf ice cube is a gift from the god of the steppe to the guests of the prairie, where do you start, can't you use it?"
"You guessed it right, the four-leaf ice cream has no use for us prairie people at all except for being beautiful. ”
Leach couldn't help but be speechless at the idea that Nilke attributed everything, whether it was beneficial to the steppe people or had nothing to do with the steppe people, to the so-called god of the steppe.
Although this is the belief of the other party, it is always on the lips, and it is somewhat annoying.
"Leach, now you understand why the content of the trial is so difficult, right? Actually, if you want to get the four-leaf ice cube, the tail feathers of the ice luan are indispensable, without it, you will never be able to find the four-leaf ice cube. ”
"Oh?" said Leach, raising an eyebrow.
After knowing that participating in the tribal competition on the prairie would be so beneficial, Leach finally understood why it was just a special ritual on the prairie, and there were people who were willing to stand up for these tribes.
However, listening to Nilke, this trial seems to have an indispensable function in addition to setting the threshold.
"Isn't the trial the same for all tribes? I thought it was a rule unique to the Windowl tribe to fetch the tail feathers of the Ice Luan. ”
"Yes, although all the tribes of our steppe can invite foreigners to participate in the Great Competition, in order to avoid putting the cart before the horse, our ancestors jointly set this rule, only those who have passed the trial are eligible to participate in the Great Competition. ”
......
While Leach was sorting out the precautions for walking in the Frost and Snow Mountain that Nilk had told him in his mind, Kumar, who was leading the way at the front, suddenly shouted, "Look, there is the Frost Snow Mountain ahead!"
When you look up, you see a towering mountain.
Although it was still summer, the entire mountain was still covered in snow from the mountainside, and Leach even saw that it was still snowing heavily on the peak.
"Leach, Saya, I can only take you here, and the rest is up to you. At the foot of the mountain, Kumar took off the thick leather jacket from his horse and handed it to Leach, and said apologetically.
Kumar could not participate in the trial in any way, and Leach knew it before he came, so he was not blamed for being unjust.
After agreeing with Kumar to pick them up a week later, Leach and Saya slowly climbed up the mountain.
