Chapter 272: Entering the Cold Mountain
Although they had not heard of anyone who had encountered a beast here, Wells, with his years of experience, was very sure that there was a beast they did not know about.
Hearing the word beast, Mante's whole body was in good spirits. I'm afraid that if I don't let my mind go, I will be taken by the beast for dinner.
"I haven't heard of anyone being hurt by wild beasts before, maybe the wild beasts here don't eat people. Su Rui still has expectations, even if there are beasts, I believe that in the magic world, there will be no beasts stupid enough to eat magicians.
Although they are still students, they are going to become magicians in the future. Even if the beasts want to eat them, they have to consider their entire family, and they can withstand the blows and hunts from the real magical world.
"It's really not accurate, no one has ever been in danger, and it doesn't mean anything. It's better for us to be careful. "Ever since Wells entered the cold mountain, the whole person has entered a state of vigilance, and he does not dare to relax at all.
Pékney, too, doesn't talk much at this time, with a pair of sensitive ears that catch every voice around her.
Wells took a packet of powder from his pocket and threw it in the air.
Immediately, a map of the entire cold mountain appeared in the air, similar to a map or something. But this Wells can be adjusted on it, and if they want to see that direction, they can pull it directly with their hands, and the landscape of that direction will immediately appear in front of them.
"Wow, Wells, where did you get that powder, it feels so good. It allows us to see the mountain features of Lengshan in such detail. Seeing the map of the cold mountain that appeared in the air, Mante's whole person became excited.
With this, they may be able to find Messev quickly and return before dark.
"It's something I've been working on for a few years now, and it's only recently been successful, and today is the first time I've used it, so hopefully it won't let us down. "This medicinal powder, which Wells successfully developed after several years, is also the first time it has been put to use.
Because it was the first time to use it, Wells also looked at it for a long time to figure out where they were now, and where they were looking.
Let's not talk about the effect of this powder, based on this idea alone, Mante has to raise his hands to express his admiration. The gap between this person and the person before him is not ordinarily large. Mante would never have thought of studying such a thing, even if he were dreaming.
"It's so nice that you really succeeded. "Pekney is very happy, and with this, the better their chances of success.
"What do you see that?" Su Rui's sharp eyes found that on the map, there was a very obvious tree that he thought would break. Because the whole cold mountain is dark green woods, and the destroyed trees reveal the resinous white inside at the place where they are broken. After some obvious contrasts in the colors, Su Rui discovered the specialness of that place at a glance.
"It's supposed to be where Messev has been, let's go and see first. "Wells, having determined the exact location of the place, led everyone in that direction.
Cold mountains are very cold and damp all year round, so the ground here is often damp with rotting leaves or plant rhizomes. When they walk, they should not only be careful of their surroundings, but also pay attention to their feet at all times, so as not to slip or trip over those things.
Wells had a good sense of direction, and just by looking at it, he could tell where they were going next. They followed the path, which they said was a path, but it was a place with few trees, and it looked like a road.
They walked along the path for about an hour before they reached the place where Su Rui had seen before. Wells walked over and looked at the broken marks in the tree.
The traces looked man-made, and Wells followed the traces and looked forward, only to see that there were similar traces not far ahead. These traces are left on the trees, so they are easier to spot.
"You say, could this be a trace left by Messef?" Su Rui looked at Wells with a thoughtful look, unsure if this was a trace left by Messev himself.
"I don't think anyone else here has left such a trace. Wells hesitated and said that whoever stayed, they would have to go over and see. Maybe there will be an unexpected harvest waiting for them.
"We're going to follow the trails, aren't we?" Mante always felt that this was not something Messeve could do.
Because they have also been punished together before, they know Messev well. If Messev had been so sure, he wouldn't have done this seemingly futile thing.
"Let's go over and have a look. Wells said, and walked in that direction.
This road is going up, and going up in such an environment, especially when you are not familiar with your surroundings, is actually quite risky.
Although Pekney wanted to be reminded, seeing Wells' determined eyes, she didn't say anything and followed directly. Su Rui was the same, without saying a word, and directly chose to trust Wells.
Mante just wanted to say something, but because there were two girls in front of him, the girls were not afraid, and he was a dignified boy, what could he say.
Everyone kept walking up the trail that had been left behind, and the terrain here began to get steeper and steeper. Mante, who is slightly chubby, walks at the back, and is not going to trip over the things around him.
Hearing the voice behind him, Wells just looked back, and after making sure that Mante was okay and could stand up on his own, he left him alone.
At this time, Mante really regretted it very much, but even if he did it again, he would still choose. If they can find Messef this time and stop his parents' behavior through Messef, I hope Wood will not forget that he has suffered so much for him.
They didn't walk long before the trail in front of them was broken, and the traces suddenly disappeared in front of them.
"Strange, how do you know that there is no such thing here?" Wells looked around, but it didn't look like someone was staying here.
If Messef had rested here, there would have been some traces on the ground. But look around them, and there's nothing left.
A person who can leave so many marks on himself will not deliberately erase his traces.
Unless...... Unless he makes a new discovery, he has to erase his traces. It's just that the front traces have no chance to be removed because they don't have time to take care of them.
