It's not early summer yet, and it's still frighteningly cold, and the temperature is so low that it's frosty.

In the white snow, you can faintly see a road that winds to the inconspicuous city in front of it.

However, Sun Xiaofei and the others saw from a distance that this city, with a population of nearly tens of thousands of residents, was sparsely populated, and the flow of people was even rarer. The roads were covered with snow and ice that had not yet melted, and a convoy walked alone.

There are dozens of people in the convoy, some of whom are afraid of the cold are still wearing thick cotton clothes, and the convoy is responsible for pulling the cart is a kind of monster unique to the ice field, which is tall and good at pulling goods with heavy loads.

When the people in the convoy saw them, they were wearing very little clothes, and it was obvious that they were not afraid of the cold weather here. Everyone's eyes were slightly strange, and then they lowered their heads and continued to hurry.

Seeing this scene, Sun Xiaofei shrugged at Lucia and smiled slightly, knowing that because they were in a hurry, they were still wearing very thin clothes, and coming to this cold region was indeed a bit eye-catching.

The two of them also ignored the convoy on the road, walked in three steps and two steps, and soon came to the city gate.

There are two Via Continent characters written on the city gate, Sun Xiaofei has made up a lot of Via Continent's languages and characters, and he can recognize it at a glance, Kuicheng! Sun Xiaofei touched his chin, greeted Lucia and walked in. Lucia then followed him in.

The city is not small, it can be regarded as a medium-sized city. In contrast, the size of the city is completely disproportionate to the number of people living in it, and there are far fewer people in it.

This phenomenon is caused by the bad weather and living environment here.

Sun Xiaofei and the two found a restaurant, went in and sat down, ordered a few dishes at random, and ate something to inquire about the news.

The shopkeeper, who was quick with his hands and feet, diligently introduced a kind of wine in their store to the two, boasting that it was the only one in the sky and nothing on the earth.

Sun Xiaofei smiled and asked him: "I said little second brother, you praised your wine here so well, just bring me two bottles to taste, is it as good as you said?"

"Uncle, don't worry, the wine in our store is like a fake, and Tong Su is not deceived. You'll know if you've drunk it. I can assure you, the more you drink, the more you want to drink. The shopkeeper said a call, and then left.

Sun Xiaofei glanced at Lucia helplessly, and both of them laughed.

Sun Xiaofei looked around and noticed a group of strong men sitting around a table. From their conversations, it became known that these people were mercenaries who often operated in the mountains. The content of their conversation was all about the Icewind Mountains.

These people spoke without scruples, shouting loudly, and Sun Xiaofei couldn't pay attention if he didn't want to. Naturally, I heard what they were talking about, and the content of the conversation was heard word for word.

It didn't take long for the shopkeeper to come over with two bottles of wine. While putting it on the table, he said to Sun Xiaofei: "Uncle, you use it slowly." If you need anything, just shout at me. ”

"Okay, I got it. Sun Xiaofei nodded and responded.

"You don't know, the Ice Beast that my brothers and a few of them saw that day was really too dangerous. In a single look, several of us were seriously injured. I saw that the situation was not good, so I quickly ran back. A tall man, foaming at the mouth, recounted his thrilling experience.

"Nikolai, you're bragging. How big is the Ice Monster you have seen? Is it just the size of a puppy, or is it your ancestor who has a spirit that allowed your kid to escape and pick up this little life. A voice suddenly sounded in the crowd.

As soon as this person's words fell, the group of people around the table immediately burst into laughter, and the people around looked at their group, but no one dared to say anything. Nikolai was sarcastically ridiculed like this, and suddenly his face was a little angry, and he roared: "Don't you believe it? ”

In a fit of rage, Nikolai ripped off his clothes, revealing a long wound on his chest, which, judging by the shape of the scar, had apparently not been long in healing.

The people next to him all looked around, and let out a sigh of exclamation. It seemed that seeing the wounds on Nikolai's body, they all believed what he had just said.

"Look at it, I know that Lao Tzu is not talking nonsense, if it weren't for Lao Tzu's great life, he would have died there a long time ago. You still want to hear Lao Tzu talk about these things. ”

Nikolai snorted coldly, looking at the people around him with some smugness. His eyes saw Sun Xiaofei and Lucia sitting quietly in the distance, and with his rich experience of rolling here for many years, he immediately saw that both of them had just arrived as outsiders.

Nikolai's heart moved, and he immediately shook off the people around him, stopped talking to them, walked to the table of Sun Xiaofei and the two, and sat down.

"This wine is a good thing, I think you two must have come from far away. Nikolai said with a grin.

Sun Xiaofei and Lucia glanced at each other and pushed the wine in front of Nikolai. Nikolai looked full of joy and unceremoniously poured himself a glass of wine.

Because of the cold weather here, the wine here is relatively strong, and after Nikolai drank a few glasses, the three of them did not seem to be strange. Nikolai and Sun Xiaofei introduced each other's names, and knowing each other's names, the two sides can be regarded as acquaintances.

"Yes, we just got here, and we were looking for someone to lead us inside the Icewind Mountains. Sun Xiaofei said with a smile.

He saw Nikolai coming towards them and knew what was going to happen next. They were going to find a guide, but Nikolai took the initiative to send it to the door, and Sun Xiaofei saved a lot of trouble.

"Oh, you're going into the Icewind Mountains? ”

Knowing the intention of Sun Xiaofei and the others, Nikolai suddenly came to his senses and began to introduce Sun Xiaofei to what an excellent mercenary he was.

Sun Xiaofei understood what he meant, and wanted to hire him himself. Sun Xiaofei knew that Nikolai was a free mercenary and did not belong to any mercenary group.

"Okay, Nikolai, it's settled, you can open the price yourself, we only need you one. ”

Sun Xiaofei thought about it for a while, and agreed to hire Nikolai as their guide for this trip.

Just as they were talking about the commission and the content of the agreement, the mercenaries who heard about it all gathered around and sold themselves to Sun Xiaofei in a gossiping manner.

Sun Xiaofei was upset for a while, showing some strength slightly, and a huge force of the earth system shrouded them, and he was slightly vigilant. Immediately, the surrounding people were shocked, and under the effect of the earth gravity technique, one by one the figures fell to their knees.

Everyone knew that Sun Xiaofei was powerful, and they didn't dare to come forward to disturb them anymore, so they hurriedly stayed away from them.

Nikolai saw this scene, his eyes widened, although he guessed that Sun Xiaofei and the two must be not low, but he didn't expect it to be so terrifying. The group of mercenaries he knew didn't even have room to fight back, but he knew that there were still two or three masters in that group of people whose strength had reached the level of a war king.

After the scene just now, Nikolai didn't dare to underestimate Sun Xiaofei and the two, and his eyes were full of awe when he looked at him. Sun Xiaofei has also seen a lot of this kind of gaze. It is a kind of worship and admiration of the weak for the strong.

After agreeing with Nikolai on the time and place of departure, Sun Xiaofei and Lucia left, and as for what needed to be prepared on the road, he handed it over to Nikolai to deal with, the latter was more familiar with this kind of thing and it was convenient to do.

Sun Xiaofei and Lucia wandered around the city for a long time, then found a place to rest, and waited for the time agreed with Nikolai before the two set off to the predetermined place.

Sure enough, I saw Nikolai. For the latter's punctual professionalism, Sun Xiaofei also greatly admired. After a hurried conversation, they set off to the Icewind Mountains, led by Nikolai.

A team of only three people like them entered the Icewind Mountains so inconspicuously that no one would notice where they were going.

Nikolai knew that Sun Xiaofei and the others were extraordinary, so he naturally stopped talking nonsense, and briefly introduced some things about the Ice Wind Mountain Range, the places that need to be paid attention to, etc., so that Sun Xiaofei and the others could know a general situation about the Ice Wind Mountain Range.

Nikolai went out this time, completely armed, and prepared for all the eventualities. Sun Xiaofei and the others were just the opposite of him, both of them traveled lightly, and they didn't bring anything except some necessary items. All the items were stored in the storage vessel.

As long as you plunge your spear into the cold, hard snow, and use your shield to resist the blizzard, as long as there are no accidents, you can usually get through it easily. These bad weather are not challenging for Sun Xiaofei and the others at all, and with a little luck, they can easily resist a piece of protective armor.

"Beyond this peak, there is a place to rest. Let's take a break there before we go. Nikolai pointed to a plain looming between the peaks in the distance.

Sun Xiaofei observed for a moment and asked, "Don't be so troublesome." Let's go straight to it. I want to get to the water house quickly. ”

"However, there are so many magical beasts in the mountain peaks here that we can't force our way through. Unless we can fly over. When Nikolai heard Sun Xiaofei's words, he was shocked and shouted.

Sun Xiaofei glanced at him and nodded at Lucia, who moved his body and flew off the ground towards the distant peak. Seeing this scene, Nikolai didn't have time to be surprised, he felt his body light, was lifted up by a huge force, and followed Sun Xiaofei to catch up with Lucia in front.

When they passed a tall mountain peak, they met a group of birds and monsters, but this group of ice-type flying birds that could wipe out a hundred-person mercenary team burst open one after another under Sun Xiaofei's overturned hands, and they were wiped out in an instant, and there was not even a single one that slipped through the net. Sun Xiaofei took Nikolai with him, and soon flew over the mountain peak and landed in a flat place. Nikolai was speechless with astonishment at such a bizarre encounter.
