The first time is ice and snow, the forbidden land of life
The snowstorm in the Berlusconi Mountains has always been inaccessible, but at the foot of the mountain, there is a teenager of sixteen or seventeen who is trying to fight against the bad weather. The young man's linen coat was covered with frost, and his cowhide boots were covered with snow, but his face did not flinch in the slightest.
"It's so cold, I'm a little sleepy!"
Adi thought so in his heart, but he didn't dare to really stop and rest. Once he stopped, not to mention that there were pursuers behind him, even this snowstorm could kill him.
The original wealthy family of the Golden Moon Dynasty of the Rondak family was just very unlucky to stand in the wrong direction in the battle for the throne and always supported the first prince Robin.
The second prince, Haken, who was not favored at first, suddenly washed Yanjing in blood after receiving the support of the generals of the Northern Army stationed at the border, and seized the supreme scepter with an iron fist. After the new emperor ascended the throne, former opponents were sent to the gallows one by one. Adi was originally studying at the Yanjing Military Academy, and he was only a month away from graduating, when he learned the news of his parents' arrest and fled from Yanjing Jinyue City in a hurry.
From Yanjing to the Berlusconi Mountains, the boy who fled thousands of miles fought against the pursuing royal guards several times. Relying on the strong swordsmanship and meticulous mind that he had practiced since childhood, Adi killed six guards one after another, but was forced to break into the Berlusconi Mountains, which is known as the land of death. The further you go up the mountain, the heavier the wind and snow, the colder the climate, and the further up is the forbidden area of life.
Adi struggled to climb with a difficult pace. Every member of the Royal Guard is a carefully selected martial arts master, most of them are outstanding cadets who graduated from the Yenching Military Academy, and a few are the bravest soldiers selected in the army. Adi also dreamed of being selected into the Royal Guard after graduation and becoming the envy of everyone, but now he has to deal with these pursuits that may be his seniors and seniors, and try to survive in order to save his own life.
"I don't know what happened to my parents? Prince Haken is not a very cruel person, maybe he won't kill my parents!
Although he was relieved in his heart, Adi clearly knew how tragic the Yanjing bloodshed was this time. On the way to escape, the news that a certain family was beheaded in several places kept coming, which made Adi frightened and worried about his parents. But politics is so cruel, Adi knows that it is impossible to save an entire family by relying on one person, not to mention that no matter how strong his swordsmanship is, he is only seventeen years old.
Worried that the sword and scabbard would freeze together, Adi had already pulled out the sword and tied it tightly behind his waist with a cloth belt. However, the cold of ice and snow has long made this steel long sword difficult to touch. "In this weather, maybe those guards will give up tracking!" Adi tried to get rid of the dark side of his emotions and give himself some encouragement and comfort.
Unbeknownst to him, this question had been hotly debated among the Guards who were chasing him.
The Royal Guard squad that pursued him, a total of fifteen members. In their opinion, chasing down a rookie who has not yet graduated from the Yenching Military Academy is quite a leisurely thing, but Adi's toughness is something they didn't expect. Along the way, Adi was full of wit, got rid of their tail-end chase many times, and in several head-on clashes, six companions fell one after another, which also allowed this Guards squad to experience the fierce swordsmanship of this young man.
Looking at the snow-capped summit of Mount Berlusconi, Olusa was not sure that he would be able to climb safely. He looked at the captain, who didn't know whether his face was blue from the cold or with the blue of anger, and suggested softly: "Mount Berlusconi is the mountain range of death, and this cold wind from hell will make that little rabbit cub roll to hell, we don't have to risk it......"
"Bastard! Olusa, you coward, shit, scumbag! If I fail to even hunt down an underage cub, how do you tell me to go back and give an explanation? The new emperor is not so easy to deal with! There is no head in his hands, you say! Can we go back? Moreover, we have already left six corpses, and even if we cut this kid with our own hands, we will become the laughing stock of the royal guards!" was scolded loudly by the captain, and Olusa was displeased and secretly said: "You are a laughing stock!" But he didn't dare to say what was in his heart out loud.
Because of the pursuit of Adi all the way, these guards did not have time to prepare thick clothes, and in the face of the cold wind of Berlusconi Mountain, everyone showed fear. When the new emperor ascends the throne, who doesn't want to make some contributions? Even if you can't be promoted, it's best not to be caught making mistakes and being degraded. The difference in status between the Royal Guard and the local legions was too great.
Although Li Keli scolded Olusa, he didn't have a bottom in his heart. How could he not know that because of this unfortunate pursuit, he, the squad leader, had lost his prestige among the team members. For the first time, they embellished Adi, and almost in a single face, he was caught off guard by the impulse of Adi's trickery and seduction, and Adi cut off two fingers of his left hand with a sword. In the ensuing pursuit process, Li Keli's recklessness and impulsiveness once again made them pay a tragic price.
Adi Lundak is only seventeen years old, and in the Yenching Military Academy, except for the name of a bit of a nerd because of his love of history, all the records on the materials Li Keli got seem ordinary. But in a few encounters, every member of the Royal Guard squad developed a fear of the boy.
The Lundak family is not known for their martial prowess, but this young man's family swordsmanship is directly after the regular knight.
No one knew that Adi had a serious conflict with his father because of his disagreement after graduation, and he was cut off from his financial resources for a period of time. In order to eat and tuition, this teenager once joined a group of thieves in private, experienced countless adventures from birth to death, and was far superior to his peers in terms of actual combat training.
There were only nine guards left, and although the morale was low, a few people still looked vigorous when they moved around. Although the bitter cold winds of the Berlusconi Mountains troubled the pursuers, they still marched more than twice as fast as ordinary people.
Adi didn't know the troubles of the pursuers, and the reason why he escaped to this place of death was not because he was in a panic, but because he accidentally got a mysterious map when he joined the bandits. This map is from the previous Oishi Dynasty and depicts a vast and incomparable labyrinth.
