Chapter 63: Flying Time (Part II)
Jonah felt that his memories of the past ten days were rather vague, as if the river was rushing by, but the ground was only shallow and wet. This strange feeling is familiar, when he met Madame Duran in the "Black Cat Cafe" in the Eastern Continent, he had entered the tower to Lizhu for a trial, and the memories of that time had evaporated, after all, it was not a real thing. At this time, there was a feeling again, could it be that time and space had changed in the past two weeks? Jonah couldn't figure it out at all, shook his head to sober himself up, wrapped his fur coat tightly and tried to keep up with his companions in the wind and snow.
"It's only an hour before sunset, so we have to get to the next accommodation before dark. Elliott, who was at the front of the line, pointed to the north and said, "If we're going in the right direction, we should be able to see the outline of the village at all times, everyone, cheer up, and you can rest soon." ”
"Hot mead!" cried Sibi feebly, sitting on the unicorn's back, "piping hot polenta, roast sprinkled with peppers, freshly cooked cheese-pepper-tomato risotto, bread smeared with garlic and burnt pork blood sausages...... Ahh......h
The Rose Knight said, "Just hold on, little grasshopper." Don't be reckless, wrap your warm clothes well, and don't let your body temperature lose any longer. ”
"I'm fine, I'm just too hungry to walk......" muttered the green-clad elf, who was wrapped in three layers of animal skin, and wore a leopard skin hat, huddled behind Elliott's back, shivering from the cold, her teeth clattering. In the battle that took place four hours ago, although the Pitchfork Squad cleanly routed the Brotherhood's pursuers, Sibby stepped on the ice and fell into the icy water, and when he climbed out, his whole body immediately froze, and if it weren't for the fact that the knight's backpack still had the grease used to ignite the fire, I am afraid that it would have frozen into a large ice cube by this time.
"Hehe, extremely weak!" Danny Stewart raised a thumbs up triumphantly and pointed to the tip of his nose: "Look at Uncle Ben, he is not afraid of the cold of the Northern Continent at all, even if he is naked, he can walk for a day!" "Shut up!" Hannah Stewart glared, and her simple brother, who wanted to peel off his clothes and expose his chest muscles, immediately closed his mouth obediently. The Stuart siblings walked on the left and right sides of the Cavaliers, one position behind Elliott, forming a wedge formation on their shoulders. Hannah watched vigilantly as the large gun "Admiral" in her hand sneered at white smoke, and the steam rose into the air and fell into fine ice particles.
Jonah walked in the middle of the line as he glanced back to see Jekong's figure looming twenty yards away. The southerner was in charge of covering the team and eliminating the movement on the ground, and he was supposed to be the most afraid of the cold when he came from the hot Buddha country, but Jonah didn't see that the cold was affecting the red-haired man in the slightest. In the battle just now, as soon as the enemy appeared, Yekong pulled out his long knife and rushed into the enemy formation to chop melons and vegetables, cutting more than a dozen people into dozens of pieces, which not only frightened the enemy into a soul, but also made the members of the Pitchfork secretly frightened. "Don't let me sleep in the same room with him at night. Danny commented, "I'm not scared! I'm just a little ...... You know. ”
"Guys come closer, I can turn on the temperature-controlled star array. Jonah checked the state of the belt and called out.
"No, you need to rest, it's dangerous to overdraw mental energy. The Rose Knight refused, "As long as you reach the lodging point, it will be safe, please save your strength, Lord Jonah." ”
The astrologer nodded, watching the white breath from his mouth click and freeze in the air.
A lot has happened in the past two weeks. The submersible ship "St. Jonah" was basically restored to function under the renovation of the Floresians, and it was digging northwest at a depth of seventy yards underground, and Jonah's speech as commander-in-chief of the Irion Alliance made the atmosphere in the ship very awkward, and the old man Koshawar did not say a word to him for several days, only passing on the message through the liaison officer named "Ray". According to the information received by the Alliance, the Brotherhood sent a force of 5,000 men to track down on the ground, and the wagon troops they requisitioned from the Eastern Continent arrived in the Northern Continent one after another, and although the cold caused a large number of deaths in the horses, the enemy still kept up with the speed of the submariner day and night, after all, the speed of the old ship traveling underground was not worth mentioning.
It is said that there are dozens of high-ranking Brotherhood figures among the pursuers on the ground, and there are only three of the top ten bigwigs, but the advantage of the "St. Jonah" is that the frozen ground is as hard as steel. The last burrowing raid cost the Brotherhood two steam rigs and barely breached the hull of the slow-moving submarine, and now that the ship is moving, it is a thousand times more difficult to launch another attack. Compared to the warm underground, the cold and blizzards on the ground caused great trouble for the Brotherhood, and the old man Koshawar calculated the non-combat attrition of the Brotherhood every day with great interest, and even if there was a legion of magicians with him, the enemy would inevitably leave the corpses of the frozen dead all the way, and draw a path of death to the city of Erion with the corpses.
On the tenth day, as the submarine approached the edge of Monsoon Island, the Brotherhood launched a desperate attack. The northern continent split into five islands at the dawn of the Second Age, separated by rivers of hot lava, and submarines can cross the bottom of the lava river from two hundred yards to reach another island, while the Brotherhood must find a way to conquer the terrifying lava moat. As the main combat force of the Brotherhood, the Magicians Association showed amazing strength this time, led by two eighth-level archmages and composed of one hundred and forty fire-type magicians, a battle spell-casting group launched the ninth-level fire-based magic forbidden spell "Medanzo's Fury", blasting five bottomless huge holes in the frozen soil of the North Continent. Jonah shuddered when he thought about the scene, it was an apocalyptic sight.
Five pillars of fire fell from the sky, the ice cracked, the snow boiled, and the soil that had been frozen for thousands of years emitted sky-high steam, and the heat that did not exist in the world vaporized the rock layer in an instant, creating a cavity one hundred and fifty yards in diameter and more than eight hundred yards deep, and the cave walls poured down magma waterfalls, and white smoke rose thousands of yards into the air. Unable to grasp the exact location of the submarine, the range attack did not hit accurately, and the "St. Jonah" was slowly moving forward at a constant speed, and the sudden heat scorched the beard of the dwarven elder, and also melted most of the spiral armor drill on the bow of the ship, "Stop! Backwards, backwards!" Jonah did not react at the time, and Dictor Roncodo Pictor Pictor was the first to realize the seriousness of the situation, and ran to the control room bare-chested to forcibly pull down the submarine's joystick. The heavy ship moved forward fifty yards by inertia before stopping, the periscope was already red, and the people on the bridge were shocked to find that the "St. Jonah" was hanging in the middle of a flaming abyss, the bow of the ship protruding into the air, and only the second half remained in the rock formation.
"Flip up, turn upside down!" With Jonah's roar, the spiral armor began to rotate in reverse, pulling the ship back into the tunnel little by little, the mutant sandeater in the center of the submersible ship was burned by the high temperature, and was unwilling to eat the dirt that had just been pulled out from the tail, and began to struggle violently, the twist of the big worm almost made the "St. Jonah" completely fall apart, fortunately, Zhu Moqingshan led the bachelor of mathematics and physics to the head of the sandeater, and used the power of "Nine Chapters" to temporarily solidify the head of the big worm. As the submarine slowly retreats into the earth's crust, the enemy's assault has just begun, the water mage summons the water dragon, the ice mage condenses it into a slide, and the swordsmen and knights from the east swarm down the cave under the protection of the mage and the red-robed priest.
A fierce battle began. The Ebenezer Republican Guard led by Ipsiron Crocodile, the Bachelor of Mathematics led by Zhu Mo Aoyama, the Ghost led by the fallen Dark Fire mage Jeffta (Jonah was surprised to see him here), and the astrologers led by Baron Arivia form a frontal combat force, and the Great Love Buddha Mother's defense system on the submarine provides long-range fire assistance, and a bloody battle of flesh is fought in the hot tunnel. As a large amount of gold jewels were converted into attack power, the Irion Alliance gradually gained the opportunity to fight, when a truly powerful man slowly descended into the abyss, appearing above the tunnel with a golden phantom, crumpling dozens of people into pulp with a single strike. The third-ranked powerhouse of the Brotherhood has arrived! Many people present recognized this long-haired middle-aged man in a golden embroidered dragon brocade robe as the regent of Later Qin and the vice-deacon of the Brotherhood, Esepurti, who instigated the Later Qin State to join the Brotherhood and launch the War on the Eastern Continent!
Zhu Mo Qingshan immediately faced the battle alone. It was this person who drove the Bachelor of Mathematics and Science Association away from Hou Qin, and forced the most obscure association of the five guilds to go to the end of the world, and Zhu Mo Qingshan, as one of the twelve councilors, was undoubtedly moved by the strength that broke out at this moment. The pages of "Nine Chapters of Mathematics and Science" flowed, the swords, swords, blood and fire on the battlefield gradually became slow, Zhu Moqing waved his ink pen in the air, wrote the enemy's life in the frozen air, and shredded it like a tangible thing, the flower of life was extinguished in large quantities, and the members of the Brotherhood who were frozen in time did not even feel pain, and were deprived of the right to live.
But in the still world, a fist moved slightly, and then broke out of the cocoon, with a shattered wind and golden killing intent, and smashed into Zhu Mo Qingshan's chest. Esepurti threw his right fist, smashing the president of the Bachelor of Science in Mathematics Association into the rock, and his left fist was raised, and Ping Pong smashed the double knives of Ipsi Dragon Kawacrocodile, "Nothing is meaningful. He smirked and said, "Except for the fists." ”
The baby-faced president, Byron, rushed forward, but two people stood in his way, a man and a woman. The man was Pope Herod, who had short white blonde hair, and the woman was Lady Serfina in a long green dress. Jonah recalled at this time that he had indeed despaired, because there was no chance of victory in this war.
- If it weren't for the arrival of the dragon.
