On August 30, 117 years of the Nas year, the snow fell in the thirty-fifth village of the city

"More than a hundred years ago, the ruler of the Dark Continent launched a protracted war, leading tens of millions of beasts of the Dark Continent (now collectively known as the Dark Beasts) to carry out a crazy attack on the Nas Continent, bloodbathing countless towns and killing countless unarmed civilians, almost all the places of interest and monuments of the Nas Continent were destroyed, and the Nas Continent was almost defeated and reduced to a colony of the Dark Continent. However, the people of Nas, as the descendants of the Creation Spirit, did not give in, and with their strong will and desperate desire to live freely, they united and finally repelled the invaders after 20 years, which is the Great Patriotic War of the Enemy that we have always been proud of.

We have successfully defended our kingdom, our continent. A hundred years later, we still can't forget this bloody lesson, the beginning of this war began with the wolf ambition of the ruler of the Underworld Continent, the Pumir Plateau is their breakthrough, the Phumir Beast landed from the Beicang Ice Domain, crossed the Baimu Mountains, quickly occupied the Pumir Plateau, and then ran thousands of miles straight into the hinterland of the Nas Continent.

In this chapter, we will not mention more for the time being, the key words are the Pumir Plateau, the Baimu Mountains and the Beicang Ice Field, which is a history lesson based on geographical knowledge.

The Baimu Mountains are at the northernmost point of the Nas Continent, to be exact, the northernmost point of the land, the mountains almost traverse the entire northern region of the Nas Continent from west to east, the Baimu Mountains are winding and majestic, the mountains above the mountainside are covered with snow all year round, and from a distance, the Baimu Mountains are like a white dragon cruising in the clouds on the sky of the Nas Continent. Due to the overall topography of the Nas Continent is high in the north and low in the south, the Baimu Mountain Range, which is at the northernmost tip of the continent, is the commanding height of the entire Nas Continent.

Beyond the Baimu Mountains, there is the Beicang Ice Field, where there is no land, no vegetation, no life, only frozen ice and cold wind and snow for thousands of years, it is the real northernmost point of the Nas Continent, and it is also the only uninhabited area in the entire continent.

If you are lucky enough to go there, you will truly experience the arrogance of nature, the Beicang Ice Domain will tell you with actions, it is a forbidden place! There is a white light that is so dazzling that you can't keep your eyes open for a long time, and there is a hard ice shell under your feet, and you will fall into the ice cave if you are not careful, and the cold wind will slap your face mercilessly, and then throw a layer of fine ice ballast on your red and swollen face. You only have 6 hours to climb the Baimu Mountains without any supplies, after which you will collapse and become exhausted due to heat loss and eventually be frozen, merging with the Northern Cang Ice Field. It is said that when the Nas continent was still in the period of city-state secession, the harshest torture law for the trial of felony prisoners was carried out in a sheltered mountain col in the Northern Cang Ice Field. Here, the prisoner will watch his limbs and bodies gradually be frozen and shattered, and although he will not feel a trace of pain, this despair is definitely more frightening and painful than pain or even death.

Reading this, you may ask, so how did the beast travel from here to reach the Pumir plateau, don't worry, the answer is below.

From the North Cang Ice Domain to the Pumir Plateau is not only a feasible way to climb over the Baimu Mountains, because the Baimu Mountains from west to east the mountains first rise and then lower, and finally gradually submerge into the Pumir Plateau at the easternmost end of the continent, forming a dwarf hilly area, although it is also covered with ice and snow all year round, but it is far less severe than the North Cang Ice Field, from here across the Pumir Plateau and the North Cang Ice Field, as long as you climb over a few low hills, the Plure Beast invaders directly invade the Pumir Plateau.

Such a natural passage to see the ice and snow or appreciate the cruelty of nature is a very famous tourist attraction in the Pumir Plateau, but it has finally become the beginning of the sad history of the Nas continent, which is sad and ...... outrageous."

- "Tales of the Phumir Plateau"

Wu Ling looked up at the window, the sky was getting brighter, and then looked back at the wall clock, there were only 7 minutes left until 6 o'clock, Wu Ling reluctantly closed the book, sat up from the bed, got dressed and went out.

As soon as Wu Ling opened the door, he saw Harold leaning against the door, Harold was holding a dog's tail grass in his mouth, and was fiddling with his schoolbag with his head down.

"It's rare that you're waiting for me today, could it be that something big will happen?" Wu Ling asked with a smile as he handed the book to Harold.

"Big fart, you killed me, my dad thought I spent the money on the book again, and almost didn't kill me. Harold pointed to his ass, looking aggrieved.

"Don't pretend, as soon as I came out, I saw your eyes rolling, and you were blinding me again. Wu Ling said, and directly flew up and kicked Harold's ass.

Harold reacted quickly, quickly took two steps back, grimaced, and said with a smile: "It's getting harder and harder to lie to you, and you'll see my expression, it's not a small growth." ”

"I just eat a lot of food. Remember to bring the book back at noon, I haven't finished reading it yet. ”

Harold put the book in his bag and stepped back as he spoke, "You know, noon and afternoon are training for Teacher Drake, and noon is physical training! There is also battle training in the afternoon, and you can still have the energy to read after training?"

"I can read books when I sleep and dream, you can just bring it back!" Wu Ling pointed to Harold's schoolbag and admonished.

Harold compared his middle finger and shouted at the top of his voice: "You still have a reason to borrow books, your grandfather doesn't pull out a hair, you don't pull out half a hair! I haven't paid a single cent of tuition fees in the past few years, but you have read all the books in the school." ”

Wu Ling raised his head and compared his fists, and Harold saw that the situation was not good, or that he would accept it when he saw that it was good, and made a grimace and ran away.

Wu Ling turned around and went into the house, prepared the day's breakfast, left some in the pot, and after eating it himself, he carried the rattan basket into the mountain.

Wu Ling was promoted by his grandfather to be the heir of the Wu family's workshop when he was 8 years old, and for the next 8 years, Wu Ling spent half of his time in the workshop. And Wu Ling's remaining leisure time was also ruthlessly arranged by Old Man Wu. In the mornings and evenings, Wu Ling had to work in the workshop, and from noon to evening, he had to go to Drake to receive systematic and rigorous training.

As for Wu Ling's enlightenment education, it all benefited from Harold's junior brother, Harold spent money to go to school and listen to classes, Wu Ling borrowed books for free, and over the years, Wu Ling also knew a lot of words and learned a lot of knowledge, according to the words of Mr. Wu, Wu Ling is already a blacksmith in the new era who can write his own name, can keep accounts by himself, and can fight lawsuits by himself.

Wu Ling's work today is relatively simple, mainly to go to the abandoned mine pit in the mountains to pick up ink steel ore, this is Wu Ling's favorite work, go outside, wade to the stream, pick some wild fruits or something, much more interesting than the boring grinding work.

From Xueluo City 35 Village to the pit in the small mountain col, the nearest road needs to pass through a stone forest, the stone forest has always been said by the people in the village to be an ominous place, all the people who enter the mountain will bypass the stone forest, some of the villagers of Xueluo 35 Village are specialized miners, the day before they will go up the mountain to mine ore, the next day to the neighboring village or Xueluo City to sell, in a small col at the foot of the Baimu Mountain Range there are scattered black steel ore. As the name suggests, the black steel ore is black with a hint of purple. The texture of ink steel is very hard, and after smelting, a trace amount of sea tears can be added to make ink steel obtain good toughness at the expense of a small amount of hardness, which is very suitable for making low-level weapons and armor, and ink steel has enough affinity for most of the spars, and the weapons and armor made of ink steel as the carrier are low-key and practical, and have always been very popular with legions and mercenary groups. Such high-quality ore, logically speaking, should belong to the Nas Empire for large-scale mining, but due to the scattered distribution of Mogang deposits near Xueluo 35 Village, and the ore reserves in various places are not abundant, the empire after a period of blasting and exploration, felt that the cost of mining and transportation was too high, and it was impossible to make ends meet, and finally gave up mining. The continuous blasting, the falling rocks, and the gravel in the pit were piled up together, and there was that chaotic stone forest.

Wu Ling and Harold's switchback running training had to go around the rocky forest every time, Wu Ling already knew it well, and he knew why it was an ominous place. Wu Ling was walking in the chaotic stone forest with a rattan basket on his back, looking around casually, and suddenly behind the stone pile on Wu Ling's side, there was an extremely short friction sound, Wu Ling had been dealing with ores, and he knew very well that kind of friction sound - it was the sound of sharp weapons scraping against the stone wall!

Wu Ling took out an iron pickaxe and short sword from the back basket, and wanted to hide by a boulder behind him, but he was still a step slower, behind the stone pile on his side, with the sound of weeds being stirred, a ghost horned wolf rushed to the top of the stone pile, his staggered fangs drooling, a pair of blood-red eyes stared at Wu Ling tightly, his nose kept twitching, as if he was remembering Wu Ling's smell.

When the army of beasts of the Dark Continent was defeated, a large number of beasts were left in the Nas Continent, in a vain attempt to hinder the development of the Nas Continent. The most striking feature of the ghost horned wolf is that it has hard bone horns on its head, which are chaotic and grow wantonly, and the number of bone horns, shape, and bending direction are irregular. It is safe to say that none of the tens of thousands of ghost horned wolves scattered across the Nader continent are exactly the same. In the era of large-scale wars a hundred years ago, due to the shortage of armaments and materials during the war, the production and supply of weapons were often insufficient, a blacksmith named Motai creatively fixed the ghost horned wolf skull on a metal or wooden stick more than half a meter long, and since then the ghost horned wolf head mallet was born, a legendary weapon made with local materials in the war, and once became the quasi-standard secondary weapon of the temporary army in the Great Patriotic War.

Wu Ling raised the weapon in his hand and confronted the ghost horned wolf, while carefully observing the figure of the ghost horned wolf in front of him, secretly thinking in his heart, this one is definitely stronger than the ghost horned wolf he has seen before, and the bone horns on his head are abnormally thick, even if he can fight hard, it is estimated that he will be injured by this beast, which is not cost-effective. If you go up to the tree to escape, you won't be attacked, but it's not a foolproof solution, and there are few people around the rocks, and no one will come to save you, which will only make it more troublesome at night.

Wu Ling thought of being rescued, the first thing that flashed into his mind with the ability to rescue was Teacher Drake, the rocks were less than two kilometers away from Teacher Drake's cabin, and it was better to lead to disaster now, if this wolf can keep up with me, today I will see how Teacher Drake tears the ghost horned wolf, if this wolf can't keep up with me, then it will be his life.

Wu Ling made up his mind and threw the ore pickaxe directly at the ghost horned wolf, and he quickly ran away in the opposite direction, running towards the depths of the chaotic stone forest.

Wu Ling jumped back and forth on a few rocks, and several extreme line changes made the ghost horned wolf behind him fall several times, but despite this, Wu Ling was getting more and more nervous, because the distance between him and the ghost horned wolf was not stretched much apart, Wu Ling knew that the mountain road of more than a kilometer was the most deadly, even if the foot strength of the ghost horned wolf was poor, if the four-legged wolf on the flat ground could not outrun the two-legged person, it could only be said that the wolf really had no dignity at all. Wu Ling was forced by the situation in front of him, so he had no choice but to take more and more extreme angle changes, trying to widen the distance as much as possible to relieve himself of some pressure on the mountain road.

In this way, the evil wolf is behind, Wu Ling is in front, three minutes later, one after the other, one after the other, Wu Ling has made various attempts in the chaotic stone forest, and has stretched the distance to more than twenty meters, looking back at the ghost horned wolf, although the tongue of the stupid wolf has been drooping outside the mouth, snorting and panting, but the speed does not seem to have changed much, the speed is still very fast, seeing that the ghost horned wolf is still in this situation, Wu Ling is really a little discouraged, following Teacher Drake for ten years of hard training can not outrun a brute, this is simply a shame! Shame!

Wu Ling shouted angrily, exhaled all the turbid air in his chest, took a sharp breath, increased his speed a little, and thought in his heart that Mr. Drake's cabin was not far away, and his careful thinking was about to be achieved.

If this is an accident that makes Wu Ling desperate, then what happens next will only make Wu Ling more desperate, Wu Ling, who fell out, understands that the only thing that can save him now is the short sword held in his right hand, and what Wu Ling never expected was that at the moment when he had high hopes for this short sword, his right wrist hit a mountain rock, and the instant pain directly made Wu Ling let go, and the short sword was thrown into the grass five meters away.

Wu Ling watched the short sword fly out, gritted his teeth and looked at the mountain rock, vowing to use a file to peel the skin and bonework of this short-eyed guy, and file it inch by inch!

Wu Ling snorted coldly, and glanced back at the ghost horned wolf behind him, this ghost horned wolf was also stupid enough, thinking that Wu Ling had some kind of moth flying out sideways just now, and he didn't immediately pounce on it for a while, dangling five meters away from Wu Ling. The wolf is stupid Wu Ling is not stupid, he quickly put his hand behind his back, grabbed a stone, and pretended to be a winner, staring at the ghost horned wolf who was still wandering, and pretending to let out a sneer.

The ghost horned wolf saw Wu Ling's posture even more cowardly, but it was a coincidence that the ghost horned wolf walked back and forth, walked a meter to the right, pressed the short sword in the grass with its paws, lowered its head and sniffed it, and when it raised its head again, the ghost horned wolf was already baring its mouth and fangs, and howled at Wu Ling, and its four claws struggled to dig up the ground and pounced on Wu Ling.

The scene was really embarrassing for a while, anyone who was played like this would definitely be angry and scolded his mother, not to mention the stupid wolf with low intelligence, Wu Ling had already tasted the charm of national scolding from the dry howl of this ghost horned wolf, and now he can only go up the tree immediately to avoid being bitten by this ghost horned wolf.

Two meters behind Wu Ling is a birch tree, in front of him is the stupid wolf that is about to pounce, there is no time for Wu Ling to turn around at this moment, Wu Ling threw out a stone to try to delay the time, and retreated behind him, but despite his best efforts, his body did not reach the tree, but the ghost horned wolf arrived first, opened his mouth with saliva and rushed straight to Wu Ling's door.

At this moment, Wu Ling only felt that he was careless this time, and he really had to fight hand-to-hand at close range and leave a few scars. In a trance, Wu Ling's senses seemed to be infinitely stretched, for the first time in his life to observe the bloody mouth of the ghost horned wolf so closely, I have to say that it is an unforgettable experience, the ghost horned wolf's fangs are full of dirt, and some of them are broken, and the visual effect is disgusting;

Under the double blow of sight and smell, Wu Ling actually had a strong desire to survive, and a spirit suddenly took a step back, pulling the trunk and jumping out to the side.

At this moment, an eager shout suddenly came from behind Wu Ling, followed by a explosion that tore through the air, and Wu Ling was splashed with steaming wolf blood.

Wu Ling looked at the wolf head in his arms embarrassedly, the wolf's head was neatly cut off behind the ears, and several bone horn fractures on the head were very neat, and there was a feeling as smooth as a mirror, which was the reason for using the cross body? Wu Ling wanted to think about it carefully, but the hot and humid brain of the ghost horned wolf was flowing towards his lower abdomen, and the wolf's mouth was still wide open, and the fishy smell of the brain flower was mixed with the foul smell in the wolf's mouth, Wu Ling finally couldn't resist it, and spit directly into the wolf's mouth.
