Chapter II

He ran wildly against the wind and snow, and the snow that did not reach his calf greatly affected his speed, and every step forward required several times more force than on flat ground. He was comforted by the fact that the bear that came out of nowhere was no better.

But as a large predator, it quickly adapted to how to be in the snow, and even used its size to shovel the snow like a bulldozer to leave a trail. The snow was compacted by its weight, and it looked as if it had been run over by a road roller, smooth and flat. It relied on this method to gradually approach its prey, and it only knew that the prey was a creature similar to a monkey, but without body hair, and much larger than a monkey.

It deliberately pursued him, because the great scar on its face was due to the creature. Looking at the panicked "big monkey" being chased by itself, its heart couldn't help but feel excited.

He could feel a huge mass of heat getting closer and closer to him, and he could even smell the fishy stench coming out of his mouth and the stench coming out of his body when it was breathing, it was a disgusting smell.

Of course, he didn't want to do this, he could run away if he could, and it was really wise to fight against such a giant bear. But things have come to this point, and he can only fight with his back.

He took the bow off his back, opened his mouth to grasp the wooden spear, drew a few wooden arrows from the quiver behind his back, and shot them with his bow. He was very confident in his archery, not to mention that he didn't even look back at such a short distance.

A few wooden arrows hit the bear with unmistakable accuracy, but they were bounced out by its thick fur, and it had no real power, just a little pain that only made it feel a little pain, which only angered it even more.

It never thought that this "big monkey" that was chased by itself and panicked would dare to fight back, and stood in place in shock, but the part hit by the wooden arrow, the pain, made it immediately come back to its senses, burst out of its anger, and the rolling sound wave was like a shock wave generated when it exploded, shaking the snowflakes and flying all over the sky.

The bear chased after it again, its wide paws shaking with every contact with the ground. The bear's paw slapped forward, and the claws that were originally in the gap between the bear's paws were instantly revealed. Beneath its thick brown fur are explosive muscles, and a burst of force can absolutely shatter a person's skull.

Of course he wouldn't want to try it, not to the point where he was fighting for his life. The wooden spear in his mouth was re-grasped in his hand and lunged forward. In the process of falling, the bear's claws grazed his back, and the distance was actually negligible.

He rolled in a circle on the snow and continued to rush forward, turning around and throwing the wooden spear in his hand. He didn't want to kill the bear with a wooden spear, it was useless, its mission was to interfere with the bear in exchange for a longer escape time.

The wooden spear shot at the giant bear with its own mission, but it was tragically broken, "pop", a crisp cracking sound. The mission has not been reached.

"Why is this guy so difficult?" He gritted his teeth and rushed forward, which was already his limit, but with short hands and feet, the giant bear chased after him again. The distance between the two is only a few meters.

He fled so anxiously that he didn't see the road ahead, and stepped into the river that was not completely frozen. Click-click-click......", the ice showed signs of cracking, and the cracks quickly spread to every corner of the ice, and all the condensed ice on the surface of the river was scattered in an instant. He was lucky, holding on to a piece of ice that wasn't too big and barely floated on the water.

The lower half of his body was soaked in water, and the cold, biting water pierced his lower body like a knife.

The bear was hovering by the river and watching. It was about to fall into the river, but it stopped using the friction of its own weight as it lay on the ground.

It touched the water with its paws, and soon shrank back again, and its skin was as thick as it felt cold. It didn't want to just give up the food that was close to its mouth, and at the same time it didn't want to go down into the cold water, so it was entangled and in a dilemma, so it could only watch the ice cubes carrying the food drift away.

"You don't even dare to go down to the water, and you still want to eat me?" Holding the ice, frowning, he took out the shovel from his waist that he had sharpened as a knife, and threw it at the chasing bear with all his might, shouting, "You damn brute!"

He was disappointed when a shovel fell from the sky and stuck in the snow next to the bear, startling it. Still, the sight of the bear jumping up from the spot in fright made him laugh uncontrollably.

The ice carried him, flowing slowly down the river.

In this environment, the heat in his body is running out quickly. His lips were soon frozen purple, and his body trembled. He couldn't feel the lower half of his body anymore, and he was a little skeptical that some kind of monster in the river had eaten his lower body.

He turned his head to see no blood, and his legs were floating up and down in the water in small increments.

Seeing this, he grinned, "It's good if it's still there, it's good if it's still there." ”

Now he endured the cold alone, with monotonous white and rotten dead trees on both sides, without a sound, without a sign of life, and he was a little afraid. The limbs of the dead trees stretched out in all directions, like ghosts with teeth and claws.

Don't look at the courage and resourcefulness he seemed to fight with the bear, only he knew in his heart, and his nervous heart was about to jump out of his chest. He is still young, only six years old, although he has a more mature personality of going into the mountains to hunt with his father, but in the end he is still a child, and he is not comparable to adults in all aspects, and it is not easy for him to do this.

He fantasized about whether there would be a monster at the bottom of the river, whether it would suddenly appear in front of him and swallow himself in one gulp without being caught off guard. Will there be headless skeletons like my father said in the dead woods on both sides, and will there suddenly fly in the sky the fierce bird with four claws and a head like a lion in the story?

The more he thought about it, the more frightened he felt, and the slightest movement could scare him away. His mind was full of thoughts, and under the high level of mental tension, he soon became tired.

He didn't dare to close his eyes, for fear that the monster would be in front of him when his eyes opened in the next second. But the fatigue was overwhelming, but his upper and lower eyelids closed, and after a while he suddenly woke up from his confusion, and then fell down after holding it for a while, and repeated it many times before he completely fell on the ice, and drifted with the icy river.

I have to say that he is lucky, still blessed by God, in such an extreme environment, his life was not taken away by the cold, but his vital signs were reduced to a minimum, and he was only one step away from death.

This is the Fengyuan Xue Palace, it is located on the outskirts of Wending City, the reason why it was established here is because three hundred miles further is the battlefield of people and demons, the largest and most garrisoned city in the Longhua Empire, and the ice fortress city. The role of the Wind Source Academy Palace is to train a steady stream of mages to send to the front line. At the same time, with only two days to go, the Academy students can support the front line as quickly as possible.

The gate of the palace is made of all-metal, with a height of 30 meters and a width of 25 meters. The internal architecture of the palace is characterized by sharp corners, sharp and straight, which is diametrically opposed to the traditional architectural characteristics of the Longhua Empire. The landmark building of the school palace is 100 meters high, and it makes people feel small when they look up. In the center of the hall of the teaching building, a round ladder climbs and hovers upwards with four bundles of columns around it, and even the floor for people to step on in the entire huge hall is spotless, but except for a round ladder, there is nothing else, which seems a little monotonous.

The whole school palace is in the environmental protection of the mountain, from spring to winter, the mountain will be different in each season, and the scenery will change every day, depending on the mountains and rivers. A wide and gentle river divides into two near the school palace, which surrounds the school palace on the left and right, and converges not far from the east.

At the gate of the school palace, an arched bridge overlooks the river, and moss climbs its body. It bowed its head for decades, and the little lions on the stone railings on both sides had been polished by time, reflecting the pale yellow moonlight to the sky.

On the arch bridge stood two people, one tall and one short. Even at night, you can see that it is a father and daughter. The father was saying something to the girl, but the girl kept tilting her head and clasping her hands, as if she was in a state of disregard.

For his daughter's attitude, the father could only smile awkwardly, who made this a little princess.

"Bamboo, just listen to your father, don't toss everyone every day, it's difficult for your father to do it. ”

There was even a hint of pleading in his father's tone. It's hard to imagine that if this was in an ordinary person's house, it would have been sent with a stick a long time ago.

"No, you murdered me today. "The girl was not going to accept her father's pleas.

The father patted his forehead and exhaled, what kind of precious daughter did he have on the stall, and he still wanted his father to kneel on the ground and apologize? It is simply intolerable to let a man take the baby.

"Then what do you want Daddy to do?" he asked his daughter with a smile, no way, after all, it is his own daughter, no matter how arrogant she is, she has to bear it. It's just that the smile on his face is more ugly than crying, and compared to those legendary ugly ghosts, it should be on par. Fortunately, the girl didn't turn her head at this time, otherwise she would probably be scared to cry, and then even more angry.

The girl kept looking at the dark river, flowing into the distance, not knowing what she was thinking, her eyes wandering. In fact, though, she was just in a daze. The poor father thought that his daughter was still angry with him, and jumped up and down, doing everything he could to amuse her.

If he knew that his daughter was about to fall asleep at this time, would he vomit blood in anger?

"It's a great sin to let a lovely girl accompany an old man like you so late. The girl looked straight at her father.

"Old man, are you so old with your father?" he touched his nose, a little lost, and was said to be an old man by his daughter. Although it is a fact, can't it be tactful?

"Alright, alright. She yawned, a little sleepy, she couldn't spend so late with this old man, what if she became ugly, "Forgive me, go home, the little princess will sleep." She turned her gaze back to the river, where a black shadow floated in a somewhat human-like shape.

"Old man, there's something floating on the river, look at it. She instructed her father unceremoniously.

The man sighed helplessly, the little princess forgave herself, and the matter was settled, but I don't know what will happen to her next time. He felt that he was simply a professional backbiter, similar to the lowest serf in the empire, with no human rights.

Although he was very indignant, he didn't dare to show it, lest this little princess start making trouble again, and the kind that can't be stopped is very headache.

He glanced at the dark shadow in the river and realized that it was a person!
