Chapter 262: Misty Canyon

Flying a dragon is an amazing experience, after all, unlike a completely sealed airship room or an empty deck, and the dragon's flight attitude is more agile than that of man-made objects. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Quickly stepping over the days of walking on land, the wyvern slowly descended at the mouth of a narrow valley, the mountains in the middle of the channel extending inward in a funnel shape, and a hazy white mist could be seen not far from the entrance, which was completely obscured by the fog further in.

"Alright, here it is. Lias fell from the dragon's back, turned around and looked up, "...... Does Knight-kun have a fear of heights?"

Yeyue grabbed the scales on the dragon's back with one hand and held his forehead with the other, swaying like he was drunk, looking very bad.

Subaru crouched down with his hind legs bent and let the night moon slide down from above.

"You, okay?" said Lias as he crouched down, worried.

"I didn't ...... Issue. Night Moon retched for two minutes before finally coming back to her senses, "It's just a little, dizzy." Obviously, it's okay to take the airship, but I didn't expect to faint the dragon. ”

"Does it really matter?" asked Lias, "why don't we go to a nearby village and take a break and start the crusade tomorrow." The dark beer at Fort Scherrag might make you feel better. ”

In her free time, Lias also does some tasks to save some money, and this area is relatively familiar to her.

"Although I would say that it was a good idea. Night Moon stood up with Subaru's claws, "But forget it, you can also see the white mist that exploded in visibility, the crusade mission of the "Ice Emperor" is not only a test of combat effectiveness, but also a search is the most important thing. Search some areas today, and if you don't find them, let's talk about it. ”

"I've also been to the Misty Canyon to say it, but at that time, I was only collecting a rare flower species that is said to be able to be used in medicine, and I didn't go deeper. "The fog wasn't as heavy as it is now. ”

"......" Yeyue was silent for a long time, is this also a precursor to the arrival of the Demon Moon.

Yeyue took out a pair of buttons of the same shape, proofread each other and threw one to Lias: "I don't know what is in the white fog, the visibility is too low, it is easy to get scattered, put away the guide pin." ”

Lias looked at the little thing carefully for a while, and in the center was the shape of a miniature compass, and whatever he moved, the pointer was pointing to another button in Yeyue's hand.

"Yikes. Lias patted her forehead in frustration, "Completely forgot about that." ”

"What about your dragon?" asked Yeyue before she was about to enter the mist.

Lias turned back to the curled up dragon and shouted, "Go find something to eat nearby, don't bother others, remember Subaru." ”

The wyvern poked its head out of its wings and shook it up and down in a nod.

"That's a lot of wisdom. Yeyue exclaimed.

Unlike the true dragons, i.e., the dragons, who are close to perfect creatures, the widespread wurm species are more similar to the mentally retarded beasts, and their actions are closer to instinct, and there are very few people like Subaru who can accurately understand the lingua franca and respond effectively.

Subaru pricked up his head reservedly, and Lias whispered to Yeyue, "Don't praise it, it will be proud." Subaru is just a fool. ”

The wyvern let out a disgruntled roar at his master, and Lias tilted his head to the side: "It's so easy to get angry, just like a child." ”

Subaru hung his head on the branch aggrievedly, and Yeyue scratched his face: "Don't say that, I don't know what breed of dragon you are, it doesn't seem to have fully grown up, maybe it's really a child in the same clan." ”

"Let's go, let's go. ”

After entering the Misty Canyon, the temperature suddenly dropped by more than ten degrees, and the humid mist surged, which was much cooler, much better than the heat outside, which would make people suffer from heat stroke.

Even if it's raining outside, it's hot and muggy.

The visibility was really poor, not to the point where you couldn't see your fingers, but you couldn't see clearly from three meters away.

"Be careful, be careful not to fall into the ditch. Lias suddenly stopped, kicking a pebble on the side of the road.

The stone gurgled twice and then suddenly lost its rolling sound, and it took a while to hear the crunch of the stone falling from a great height and colliding against the same hard rock.

There is not a road ahead, but an abyss that I don't know how deep it is.

"It's a hassle. "It's easy to be attacked by monsters that exist in the fog, and it's dangerous to can't see the road clearly......"

As soon as the words fell, a rusty long knife reached out from the mist behind Yeyue and stabbed into the unsuspecting back.

Night Moon's body turned transparent blue for a split second, then reappeared a meter away, and the mirror image that remained in place spread backwards along the blade, freezing the sneak attacker.

"Fog Demon. Yeyue tapped the ice cube and said.

The virtual body wearing the rag cloak is also frozen in the ice, and the ice formed by the magic not only has a physical barrier effect, but also has a confined effect on the virtual body.

"Is this a lot?" said Lias, "I haven't come here a few times before. ”

"Areas with fog are often accompanied by fog demons, and although this evil spirit is not very strong, it is still very annoying in the nature of stealth and physical semi-immunity in the fog. ”

Yeyue snapped her fingers, and the ice automatically disintegrated, and the imprisoned fog demon also fell apart with it: "...... They also have a high resistance to wind and water magic, which I don't really like to deal with. ”

"Can you dispel the fog?" Lias studied the rusty sword and fog lamp that slowly disappeared with the death of the fog demon, and looked up and asked, "I was going to let Subaru scout in the air, but I searched on the ground, and the fog was so big that I couldn't do it...... It's hard to say that you're trying to find a target with characteristics in this environment. ”

"Dispel it?" Ye Yue lowered her head and thought for a moment, "There are quite a lot of this kind of fire magic, but there are few water types...... I thought I might be able to use that spell. ”

Lias was curious.

Night Moon raised her fingers, and the magic spread like silk threads from her fingertips to the vicinity of the valley, weaving into an invisible spider web in mid-air.

"Frost falls. ”

The moisture in the mist converged on the nearest magic silk, quickly condensing into palm-sized snowflakes that spread a light layer of white on the ground.

As the water sank, the fog quickly receded around the night moon, and the field of vision suddenly widened. The Misty Canyon has a large internal structure, with outer mountain passes of different heights winding back and forth, and intricate caves on the mountain walls.

The fog receded, and some gray shadows were also exposed, quickly escaping, in addition to these fog demons who used the fog as their range of activity, there were also some wandering demonic beasts, they with low intelligence did not know what was going on, but they also quickly hid in nearby corners.

"Whew. Lias took a deep breath, exhaling a misty white breath.

"It's so cold......" Lias wrapped herself in her cloak with her arms folded.

"I lowered the temperature in the neighborhood. Nightmoon explained to Lias, "High temperatures dispel fog, and so do low temperatures. Sorry, I forgot to say hello in advance. ”

"Guardian of the Winter. The night moon pointed at Lias, who saw an inconspicuous blue hexagonal circle of light appear at her feet.

Severe Winter Ward, which increases the target's resistance to cold for a period of time and is immune to freezing.

"Naut-chan, good man. Lias gave Night Moon a thumbs up and said with a solemn expression.

"No, I'm not Neet, I'm not a homebody. Yeyue shook her head vigorously and vetoed it desperately, "Although many magicians are homebodies, I really am not. ”

"......" Lias turned into a dead fish's eye in an instant.

I can't answer in every sense, hey.

"The fog will slowly come back, and I'm limited in what I can dispel, so I'd better hurry. Night Moon changed the subject and said, "Do you have any clue? I don't find any high-energy level individuals in my perception. ”

"Of course it's - no. Lias sighed, "But the pattern is always the same, the boss is always the last to appear, and you can always find it when you explore the depths of the canyon." (To be continued.) )
