Chapter 14 Names

"Free ......"

Lindsey pondered for a moment, then continued:

"I'm curious about that, too."

"You creatures are supposed to live in cold glaciers, why did you migrate to such a place?"

The glacial element replied:

"According to you humans, it was decades ago, or more than a hundred years ago. A powerful dragon beast suddenly descends on Montenegro and forces us to leave our homeland. ”

Lindsey was a little curious:

"You left willingly?"

The glacial elemental tells the truth plainly.

"The drake beast is strong, and we are powerless to resist."

"And it doesn't seem willing to destroy the glaciers, but just drives us away and promises that in 200 years we'll be back home."

When the glacial element dies, it is reborn in the glacier that gave birth to it.

Lindsay's notes clearly recorded this message, and the elemental creature in front of him was not lying.

But there is one thing worth noting.

With the strength of the dragon beast, it would not be a problem to destroy the glacier and kill these glacier elements. So why risk the glacial elemental grudge and drive them away so far?

It can't be that this dragon beast is still an environmentalist, right?

At this time, one word flashed through Lindsay's mind - temperature.

From his current analysis of what he has seen and heard, the promotion process of dragon beasts plundering the world's essentia is inseparable from temperature, and the glaciers that give birth to these glacial elements are also quite important elements around Montenegro.

Perhaps it was for this reason that the drake beast did not destroy the glacier.

In the face of these elemental creatures born from them, they can only be forced to drive them away, rather than completely exterminate them once and for all!

The glacial element in front of you is the best object to ask about, and Lindsay naturally wants to find out:

"You should know that the dragon beast is advancing, right?"

The glacial element affirms:

"I know."

Lindsey asks herself the real question:

"So do you think its promotion process has something to do with the glaciers around Montenegro?"

“……”

The glacial elemental was silent for a moment.

The icy core of its body flickered slightly, as if to indicate that the elemental creature was thinking seriously.

Lindsay waited quietly for a few seconds before hearing an answer from the glacial elemental.

"I ...... Up in the air. The power of the dragon beast is too strong, I can't understand that level of power......"

"Okay." Lindsay shrugged, but wasn't discouraged.

After all, the glacier element in front of him was only a four-stage elemental creature, and it was originally a small probability event to hope to find out the weakness of a dragon beast from the other party's mouth.

The news.

It's better to think of it as a conjecture and keep it in your heart.

Lindsay concludes with the topic and turns to the glacial commission:

"I probably understand the situation."

"And how can I help with the freedom you seek?"

The glacial element replied:

"Kill that black-scaled lizard."

"It's a jailer sent by the dragon beast, and the heavens are empowered to restrain my movements."

"It was because I sensed the damage you had done to it that I finally decided to save you."

Just killed that black-scaled lizard?

Lindsey looked at the contents of the hunting notes.

The Black-scaled Lizard's ability reads this - interfering with the flow of hot and cold air.

Glaciers are inevitably dependent on and restrained by temperature.

After breaking away from the glacier where it was born, this ability to interfere with hot and cold air is indeed a powerful restraint.

But there is one problem that cannot be bypassed.

Lindsey asked warily:

"In the previous battle, that black-scaled lizard dragon was seriously injured by me."

"You can leave on your own now, I don't think it's going to be able to stop you with a serious injury, right?"

The glacial elemental explains why he doesn't run:

"The key is the lake."

"The power of the black-scaled lizard dragon has merged into it, forming this special low-temperature zone, but at the same time, it has also bound us to it."

Lindsay understood the other party's thoughts:

"So as long as you kill the black-scaled lizard dragon, the restraints in it will disappear as well?"

The glacial element affirms:

"That's it."

Lindsey asks another question:

"But according to you, when it dies, this cold zone will disappear. You can walk away in the pursuit of freedom, but what about your people who are willing to sleep here? ”

The glacial elemental thought Lindsay's inquiry was a bit inexplicable.

It asks rhetorically:

"Will they be reborn in the glacier?"

“……”

It's amazing that elemental beings can be reborn!

Lindsay complained in her heart.

But it was this rhetorical question that gave him a wake-up call.

On the way out, Lindsay used a fire bomb to kill several glacial elements.

If these enemies are killed, they will be killed.

But if they follow the rules of glacial survival and resurrect in the glaciers near Montenegro......

The drake might not care about a weak human like Lindsay.

But for Lindsay, who embarked on this journey with the intention of killing the other party, it was a somewhat troublesome problem.

He hurriedly asked:

"How long after you die, will you be reborn in the glacier?"

The glacial elemental calmly replied:

"5~10 years."

That's a lot of time.

Lindsay breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and then asked for details:

"Will the process of rebirth be discovered in advance?"

"You're worried about that drake?" The glacial element also saw what Lindsay was worried about, and gave an answer in advance, "Don't worry, this is a reaction that occurs inside the glacier." The drake is not an elemental creature, and it is impossible to find it unless it takes apart the glacier and examines it itself. ”

The dragon beast drove these glacial elements away in order not to destroy the glacier.

This answer completely dispelled Lindsay's worries.

Instead of asking other questions, he opened his hunting notes and began to study the prey data of the black-scaled lizard.

After a two-way battle, the effectiveness of the two investigation skills has been further enhanced.

The following pieces of information have been added to the Hunting Notes.

[Although the Black-scaled Lizard Dragon can overcome the weakness of cold-blooded animals through essentia spells, it will still reduce its physical activity at night. 】

[The eyes of the black lizard dragon are not protected by scale armor.] 】

[This creature's ability to interfere with the air is related to the eyes, and the skeletal space behind the eyes leads directly to the brain, which is the second weakness other than the abdomen.] 】

"Human, what are you doing?"

Lindsay's musings made the glacial element somewhat curious.

Hearing the inquiry, Lindsay waved her hand:

"I'm thinking about how to deal with our common enemy."

"By the way, my name is Lindsay, and you can call me that."

The glacial element immediately embraced the claim.

"But unlike you humans, I don't have a name."

Lindsey:

"The last time I met the Spirit of the Mountains had a name."

Glacial Elemental:

"Then it must be a great being."

"We're going to fight side by side in the future." Lindsey didn't want to call his comrades 'Hey' by their names in battle, so he offered to ask, "Do you want me to give you a name?" ”

Glacial elements agree:

"Absolutely."

Lindsey thought of the name of the game's Ancient Apparition and said:

"How's Calder?"

The glacial elemental, or Calder, replied:

"I'm satisfied."

“……”

"Well, Calder, it's a pleasure to meet you."

"So, Lindsay, do you have any ideas for our enemies?"

Lindsey doesn't hate the bluntness of the glacial element at all.

He replied with a smile:

"It's a very simple plan, and we'd better do it tonight."
