Dawn of the Grey Tower

It was the third day of arriving at the ice field, and the fifth day of encountering the white-haired Ascendant. A sled jointly made by two gray-robed mages raced across the snow. The main body of the sled is generally a traditional style, showing two places for people to sit down, one in front and one in the back, and a storage area at the rear.

Even due to the desolation of the snow field, the main material of the sled cannot be made of wood, but a material between metal and stone smelted by alchemy and other magic, which looks like solidified lava.

The improvised material is less willful than wood, so it breaks more easily, but it's also lighter and requires less pulling force.

But the point of this sled is not the main body, but the part that propels it forward. To put it simply, the two mages finally compromised their thinking.

In front of the sled, there are two headless bears shaped by alchemy and cursed. Because they have no heads, they are incomplete in a symbolic sense, so there is not so much unpredictability. Running fast under the stimulation of magic is They are most likely also what the gray robe wishes for the most.

At the same time, in order to prevent the occurrence of rollover, trapezoidal stabilizing devices are installed on both sides of the sled. They are hard and heavy counterweights, which are used to adjust the speed and maintain stability, and can also drop the weight for sudden acceleration when necessary.

This is not over yet, the middle part of the sled has a handle similar to a rudder, and the Cursed Crow sitting at the back is responsible for controlling it. The handle is connected to the steering device and deceleration device at the bottom of the sled. However, because the structure is relatively simple, rapid steering and emergency stop will cause to catastrophic consequences.

If it is strictly used as a means of transportation, even if it is blessed with so much magic, this sled is still an out-and-out dangerous product. But in some standards, a good captain is someone who can drive a broken ship back to the port safely. How to keep the media tools in their hands in a critical state of being undamaged is a state that many people will pursue consciously or unintentionally. .

Cheese does not have this spirit of exploration. Instead of mastering the subtle boundaries of making the tool work to the maximum, he would rather redesign and transform the tool itself.

But Curse Crow is different. Curse Crow is very realistic. His sense of reality comes from the pressure of time. He has a deep understanding of the finiteness of life and knows that he has no time to waste on reconstructing everything he sees. If you want to get through the difficulties as quickly as possible, the most realistic way is to make good use of the tools you have at hand. Therefore, he is a more suitable candidate to drive this sled than Cheese.

Of course, this does not mean that the cheese can be a passenger in this regard. On the roaring sleigh, the cheese sitting in the front seat must bear several other responsibilities. For example, use spells to split the wind and snow to prevent serious interference of sight, and properly adjust the speed of the headless bear to match the changes in the terrain.

The former is relatively easy to say, while the latter requires a certain degree of tacit understanding with the driver. If the speed and direction of the operation instructions are not synchronized, the fragile vehicle will easily disintegrate. Fortunately, this is not the first time these two people have cooperated. Their cooperation and judgment can precede language, and they can easily deal with most situations.

"Is this direction okay?" Cheese leaned against the edge of the sled and waved away the snowflakes coming towards him. Simple runes engraved on wood can reduce the impact of cold wind, but the snow that comes with the wind will not give way obediently.

If it weren't for the warm light that the breath of dawn continued to emit, the cold would have quickly buried the sledge and its occupants in this white world.

However, this is not a long-term solution. The year-round clouds and mists prevent this wasteland from being illuminated by the sun, which means that the magic lantern will not be replenished with energy, and can only burn the mana of cheese as energy.

"Probably not." Cursed Crow frowned, he needed to adjust the direction of the sled while sensing the position of his severed hand.

Everyone behaves differently when concentrating. Some people become dazed, some become indifferent, and some get annoyed by any interruption.

Although Man Crow is not the third type of person, he does need to spend a lot of energy to get familiar with the tricks of driving. At this time, Cheese's accusation is an unnecessary interference for him. The cheese himself obviously noticed this, so he didn't say anything, but turned his head and looked around.

The shadow of Longji Mountain is still behind the two of them, it is like a high wall, and it is like a wave that is about to pour down. The oppressive feeling brought by the giant cannot be simply explained in words.

But when he thought that he had just climbed over the mountain, Cheese felt a little less depressed about the mountain, because he already had an understanding of the mountain, so his vision of it didn't have to be limited to the distant scenery.

】

Turning his head, beyond Longji Mountain, the wasteland is flat, with no ups and downs or waves to be seen. The reason why they had to confirm the direction with the Cursed Crow just now was mainly because the angle they were advancing at this time was not the same as the one going to the Gray Tower, or even quite different.

As we all know, starting from an origin and walking in a straight line, the longer the length of the straight line, the greater the deviation distance between the two end points. From this point of view, the place where the jeweler stores the Cursed Crow's arm must be very far away from the gray robe, but why does he need to build a stronghold so far away?

It is true that the situation between the gray robes at this time is severe, but the scale of the safe distance has not yet reached the point of exaggeration. If you want to say, as long as you choose a day or so away from the gray tower, you don't have to worry about being directly involved in anything. In dispute.

But according to the current direction ~www.readwn.com~ the jeweler's stronghold is at least five days away from the gray tower, which seems a bit overly cautious, or it is not necessary at all. The question is, will the gray robe do unnecessary things?

The silversmith and the jeweler are allies. Even if one of the two gray-robed mages doesn't want to understand this, the other will definitely point it out, because the closer the allies are, the better.

In this way, could this be a trap to divert the tiger away from the mountain? Or is it the result of some kind of interference spell? The cheese believes in the induction of the cursed crow, so he has to think about why the situation in front of him occurs.

First of all, it can be ruled out that the Curse Crow did it on purpose. If he wants to keep himself away from the Gray Tower, it is wise not to respond to the call and keep himself on the verge of war.

On top of this, Curse Crow has no reason to be unfavorable to Cheese. After all, except Cheese himself, no one knows that he has indeed brought back a certain book that is suspected to be the posthumous work of the first gray robe from the City of Ten Thousand Laws. Book, they have no reason to attack him.

The sled is galloping. It took two people and quickly moved towards the center of a grand stage.
