After welcoming His Highness Ruth back to the City of Honor, Glori began to prepare for it. As a result, the Wind of the Brave Warband has also been further expanded.

The team of 5,000 kept Glori a little busy.

From mid-July to mid-August, Glori led his team to the Glacier Valley, north of the cities of Honor and Knights.

And the line of fire left by Phoenix earlier has been extinguished due to the consumption of magic power. Aside from the ashes along the way, and the discarded armor and blades, Glori saw no torrents.

By chance, Glori and the Brave Wind Warband encountered "Picking Up the Light". At some point, at night, Glori fought the Warriors against the Shadowmons. Those shadow beasts are a headache, but they can't withstand the obstacles in front of them. Right in front of him, standing on the cliff to the south of the Glacier Valley, Glori saw the Imperial Legion's supply line.

It's as if there is a trap beneath the glacial valley. Moreover, that trap has been working. The black dragon flew in groups, coming from the north of the ice valley and falling in the valley. When the cargo was unloaded, the black dragon ran back the way it came. In the valley, only the orderly soldiers were left to load the goods.

Glori, didn't see any more Imperial troops. And Booth, as the deputy commander, only found signs of the retreat of the Imperial Legion. Except for the west side of the glacial valley, which can be accessed, only the east side remains. Just at the eastern entrance, Booth spotted the soldiers dropping the wagon along the way and heading north through the Deadleaf Grove.

The goods, but they were brought from the north, and they were loaded by the Imperial soldiers! Why did the Imperial soldiers throw the full load of goods at random at the mouth of the valley in the east?

Glori, I don't know what Yura is going to do.

Perhaps, as Leo said, the Imperial Legion is retreating.

Perhaps, it was some Imperial soldiers who fled without permission.

In order to figure out why this happened, Glori personally walked along the cliff south of the ice valley with two hunters. Until he reached the entrance to the east side of the ice valley, Glori did not stop.

Unfortunately, one of the hunters fell and injured himself because of the difficulty of walking on the ice.

Glori, too, had to go alone.

The Glacier Valley, to the west of the Dead Leaf Forest, is as cold as the town of Wanyue to the northeast. Even, to the northeast of the glacial valley, Glori found patches of ice piled up among the rocks. Glori, though, doesn't care about the cold. If you follow the cliffs north of the Glacier Valley and head northwest, Glori will reach Snow City.

Glori, who did not choose to continue northwest.

On the way, Glori saw some Imperial soldiers.

At that time, the Imperial soldiers were suffering from being chased by wolves. In order to see more clearly, Glori used "Black Mist Shadow". Relatively close to the Imperial soldiers, Glori hid in a lush tree.

Those soldiers of the empire really have no will to fight, as if they have fallen behind. There were even a few soldiers who fell down the mountain because of the siege of the wolves. As for the other soldiers, they fled in a hurry.

That's just a helpless chicken.

Could it be that those soldiers are starving?

Is there no food in those supplies?

Glori, more and more confused. Glori didn't believe that the orderly soldiers couldn't beat a few wolves. Therefore, Glori can only observe more. When he saw the Imperial soldier leave behind the soldier who couldn't get up at the bottom of the hill and leave, Glori believed that the Imperial soldier was in trouble.

Of course, it's not just about seeing, it's about figuring it out.

Glori, down the slippery rock of ice, found the frozen soldier at the bottom of the mountain. The soldier, dressed in pitch-black armor, had been buried by the snow. Just by looking at his cheeks, Glori knew that the soldiers in the snow and ice had fallen here because of hunger.

Glori, I can't believe it.

So Glori continued along the road to the northwest. As a result, Glori saw more Imperial soldiers. Those soldiers, while better than those stragglers, were not very good. It was as if those soldiers were worried that there were pursuers behind them, and they never stopped.

Could it be that the Imperial Legion is really withdrawing?

Glori, still in disbelief. In order to make all the information accurate, Glori wanted to test the Imperial soldiers in front of him. Hide behind rocks first, then pick up a stone. Immediately, Glori threw out the stones. And those soldiers didn't even react, not even the most basic doubts and looking around.

When the stone hit the ground, it actually passed through the bodies of the soldiers.

Glori was shocked that those soldiers turned out to be illusions!

After one trial after another, Glori did not let go of even the Imperial soldiers at the front. However, the result was the same, the soldiers of the Empire were just illusions. Only those soldiers who have fallen behind are real soldiers.

Oh, Yura wielded illusion magic!

So, Glori also knew whether Booth's news was true or false.

Booth's message is not accurate. Moreover, Booth just saw the effect of the magic of the illusion.

In the illusion, thousands of Imperial soldiers drop their cargo east of the Glacier Valley and evacuate north. But in reality, the goods were just piled up on the east side of the ice valley, and the Imperial soldiers might just be hiding. Bookstore.com

As for the Imperial soldiers that Glori found that they were left behind, they were just some of the victims of Yura's plan. Yura, still unscrupulous.

So, where did the soldiers go in hiding, and what were the goods full of boxes? Glori, who had to go back the way he came.

It took two days for Glori to return to the east of the glacier.

As night fell, Glori emerged from the woods. Clinging to the rock wall, Glori finds the cargo that has been put on hold. Because of the long time, the goods were either covered by snow and ice, or by falling rocks on the mountains. Glori cautiously walked to the crate next to the rock wall.

The box is made of pine.

pine, and some dampness. It seems that when it was transported by the black dragon, the box was built in a hurry. Even, the wooden crate that Glori found could not be opened because of the expansion of the planks. Still, Glori opened another crate near the rock wall.

Inside the container, there was no food at all.

Even Glorry, who had been hungry for a long time, had some disappointment.

Glori, you can't leave in a hurry. Because, the half-empty cargo box was found by Glori. Just under the plank, there was something surprisingly hidden.

Those things, all wrapped in thick rolls of paper. Even in the snow and ice, those things didn't get wet because of the magic protective film. Glori, unwrapping a package. The package turned out to be gunpowder.

Inadvertently, Glori broke out in a cold sweat.

If Glori misjudged and led the warriors down the Ice Valley, he would be buried in the Ice Valley. And those Imperial soldiers who are hiding are the proud side. Since that's the case, Glori is left with another thing to do.

Along the rock face, Glori searched around.

After all, with the "Black Mist Shadow", Glori can dodge the eyes of the Imperial Legion. In the "Black Mist" magic, Glori travels from one place to another in a black mist. As for the pine trees on the rock wall, it also became a cover for Glori.

Coupled with the fact that it was late at night, Glori didn't give the soldiers a chance to find out.

When he reappeared on a tree, Glori found the answer. In the middle of the valley, Glori also found the wooden crates.

Those wooden boxes were also buried by ice and snow for a while. However, it has been many days since the last heavy snowfall. It turned out that earlier, the Imperial soldiers were evacuated from the Ice Valley. Time, at least before Glori and the Brave Wind Warband arrive in the Ice Valley. As for the black dragon's transportation of goods, it was only Yura who used illusion magic.

Still, Glori opened a wooden box to confirm the truth of the matter. The wooden box, like the one Glory had last seen, was covered with planks of gunpowder in the lower part.

Oh, that gunpowder is heavy!

Just weighing it with his hands, Glori felt the gunpowder heavy.

Worryingly, the gunpowder in the wooden box was leftover.

Looking at the entire valley of ice, Glori shivered because it was steep on all sides. Just igniting the gunpowder on the rock wall can also cause damage to the team above the ice valley.

Using the Black Mist, Glori wants to leave the Ice Valley and send the message to the warband. It's a pity that after several uses of "Black Mist Shadow", Glori never left the Ice Valley.

And one after another pitch-black barriers fell from the sky as if they had been prepared earlier. Glori, who had to hold up his right hand, had to hold up the starlight to illuminate the ice valley.

If that unexpected thing is going to happen, we can't let the warriors of those warbands suffer with it! Those warriors are here to find hope! Glori, I don't want to see those warriors fall in the snow and ice.

Another attempt to use the "Black Mist Shadow" and send the Blue Flame Spark into the sky, but Glori still didn't get the answer he deserved. Whenever Glori wanted to run to a higher place, he was hindered by the barrier in front of him. The starlight sent by Glori also disappeared into the night.

Above the ice valley, there was no more response, only the darkness that never saw the brightness. Even the moonlight, Glori couldn't find it. It seems that Glori can only face the black dragon that falls from the sky.

The black dragon, stronger and bigger than the ones Glori had seen. Glori even compares it to other things - if it's the "Illuminate the Lost" tavern in the City of Honor, I'm afraid it will take three to accommodate it. The "Light the Lost" tavern can accommodate nearly a hundred people.

The person standing on top of the black dragon is Yura, who is holding the Stone of the Dead.

Oh, Yura has seen what happened!

There were some worries, but Glori didn't back down.

Even, Glori didn't expect anyone to fight with Yura.

Just as he moved forward, Glori took up his colorful light and jumped from the rock wall towards Jura. In fact, Glori is not trying to challenge Yura, but to return to the Brave Wind Warband with the attitude of completing the exploration mission.

Thankfully, before leaving the group, Glori also used illusion magic. Moreover, the only way to stop the action of the Afterlife Stone is the divine power of the God of Light, Yura, who has only seen the magical illusion that happened above the Glacier Valley!

At this moment, the Brave Wind Warband had long since left the Glacier Valley.
