313. Bear Rider
"You say, you still have stored supplies in the Frostwolf Forest?" After training, Rand met with Priest Waldi, who was no stranger to camps in the forest and had little interest in the so-called storage of supplies. "What's there? If it's all magic plates, forget it, I have a magic workshop, and I can do all kinds of magic plates and scrolls. ”
"It doesn't matter if anything else, the point is that there is an icon, which belongs to His Majesty the Old Gods, and I want to welcome it," Voldy said with some caution, "It was the Priest of Patani who was here to find more basic apprentices for her. Didn't you say that you were going to build a temple in the city? I want to put the idol in it. ”
"I see, let's go over the evening," said Rand, "and now I'm too sleepy to venture into the forest." ”
When Rand saw Priest Waldi again, it was already evening, and Rand, Fire, Tenya, and Black Rabbit were all ready, and when they heard that they were going to take the icon, Patani and Detapara were going with them, and that a wind wolf had been reserved for Voldy. In this way, a top team of 4 riders quietly approached the Frostwolf Forest after nightfall.
After entering the forest, the advantages of the wind wolf and the frost wolf are reflected, jumping high, not afraid of jumping over the river, and the vision in the forest is far better than that of horses. On the other hand, the fire was originally extremely fast on the plains, but after entering the forest, it was blocked by layers of trees, and it was completely unable to explode at speed, and the flame element on its body emitted a large amount of water mist together with the vapor in the forest.
It is difficult to distinguish the direction in the woodland, but fortunately, the white wolf and the wolf priest are very familiar with this place, and the four of them continue to go east and north. The further north the frostwolf forest goes, the wider it becomes from east to west, and even hundreds of kilometers at its widest point, and the temperature in the forest is gradually decreasing. After about an hour of running, the speed of travel finally slowed down.
"Ah~woo~woo~" A terrible wolf howl came from a hillside not far away, followed by a "bang" sound.
"Oh no, it looks like someone has taken a fancy to it!" As soon as Patani had said that, he jumped up on a boulder with a detapala, and ran up the hill in three or two jumps.
"Good guy, Tenya, you go and see first, Agni can't jump like this, I'll go around" Rand said, although Agni can also jump, but due to the limitation of vision, Rand didn't dare to jump directly onto the wet bluestone with the fire.
The howl and thumping of wolves did not abate after separating from Tenya, but rounding a large rock, Rand went to see a knight sitting in the woodland with his eyes closed, as if waiting for him.
Seeing Rand high, the knight opened his eyes, smiled slightly, and said, "You are the Rand Galloping Horse Knight, right?" I am Vlaar Kimirovich of Kirislav, the court count of His Majesty the King, the Sky Knight. ”
With a loud roar, Rand discovered that there was a huge brown bear behind Vlar, and it was not difficult to judge from the cry that it was also an intermediate demonic beast.
"His name is Miloa, and he has been with me for many years," Vlaar stroked the brown bear to calm him down, "Mr. Viscount, I am here to wait for you, you are the Archon of Night Qicheng personally appointed by His Majesty the God Emperor, neither I nor His Majesty have any intention of harming you, of course, and the Mentor of your family, but ......"
Knight Bear changed his words, "We Kirislav are the greatest country, we will never allow the existence of a pagan religion that believes in false gods in our forest territory, and our national pillar His Excellency Miloyevich White Bear has personally arrived, decided to take away the false god statue, and asked the Rand Knight not to interfere." ”
The common language of the Bear Knight was mixed with a lot of tongue curls, which made Rand sound a little difficult, but he still understood, and there was a high-ranking knight on the other side, and there was a legend behind him.
Speaking of which, Rand knew that no matter whether he went or not, it was meaningless, so he could only sit and wait in front of the Bear Knight, but fortunately, the Bear Knight liked to drink very much, and even began to call Rand a brother after tasting the Rant's soju and wine.
"Oh, little Lanter, we Kirislav are determined to win this forest, you see that our Majesty sent two legends into the forest, and two more legends are on standby east of the forest, just so that the mother's brilliance can fill the entire forest!"
As the northernmost region of the Human Empire, the Kirislavs have a unique belief system, they worship a god unique to the north: the mother of mankind, and consider themselves to be their mother's children.
"But Knight Vlaar, Kirislav has tried to take the Frostwolf Forest many times before this, and it seems that he has not succeeded?"
"Oh, little Lante, that's because in the early years of the God Emperor, when His Majesty the God Emperor allowed some herbivorous orcs to enter the territory of the human race in order to divide the orc tribes of the year, a large number of orcs were placed in the Frost Wolf Forest, at that time, His Majesty was for the overall situation of the confrontation with the orcs, who knew that the Frost Wolf Forest had become a place for the half-orc gang to entrench since then" The bear knight was not just taking advantage, he took out some demonic beast venison from his space equipment, these junior moon deer are quite rare breeds in the dragon. "Don't worry, your frost wolf is probably going to be fine, but that wolf priest is probably not so simple, and His Excellency Milojevich is not so tolerant of heretics."
However, Bear Knight Vlaar's supper didn't last long, and soon he and Rand both felt an extremely abnormal magic fluctuation, "Roar~" There was a loud noise, and the Bear Knight recognized that it was the unique roar of the Earth Bear, a high-level mount belonging to Milojevic, and such a violent sound was by no means the sound that the legendary knight should have when chopping melons and vegetables.
"What's going on?" Vlaar suddenly got up and looked blankly at the mountain, hesitant to help the pillar.
"Vlaar Knight, I don't think that whether we go or not, His Excellency Milojevic's battle will not be affected by us, but if we don't go, I am afraid that we will not understand many things in the future" Rand reminded the Bear Knight in a low voice, suggesting to go and see the excitement.
The Bear Knight nodded in acquiescence, then mounted his mount at the same time as Rand and ran to the bottom of the mountain together.
All the way through, the deep forest was quiet and terrible, the previous wolf howl, bear roar, and the banging sound from the magic all stopped, and when it approached the foot of the mountain, the forest gradually thinned out, and a small clearing flowed out at the foot of the mountain, about a radius of more than 100 meters.
Rand first saw Tenya riding a black rabbit at the edge of the clearing, and as soon as she reached her side, Tenya made a quiet gesture, "The old gods have descended, don't speak." ”
