Demon Lord

It has been more than a month since Roddy's team set off.

The trip up north has been going well so far. After leaving Efta, the team first walked along the main road to the east of the kingdom, passed through three parishes, and then turned to the north. The teams that can be encountered along this road are basically scattered mercenaries and caravans. From the beginning to the end, I have not seen any bandits who dare to block the road and rob. After all, there are not many bandits who rob the elite troops of hundreds of people.

The team has always maintained a constant forward speed, meticulously implementing the marching plan on Roddy's plan. And as the distance gets farther, the scenery on both sides of the road is gradually changing.

The differences in language, living habits, things, etc. make these bumps feel strange. After staying in the northwest of the kingdom for a long time, when they came to the prosperous central region, many soldiers who had never walked out of Efta all their lives were secretly sighing at what they saw before them.

In contrast, Nata is even more special: the first time she left her hometown completely, her spirit was always tense, and she hardly had a peaceful night's sleep along the way. Luo Di chatted with her several times, but Nata The sex of the topic stopper made him unable to communicate at all. Fortunately, after leaving the last town of this trip, her condition finally gradually improved.

After much deliberation, Rody finally came to a conclusion: the people in front of him actually didn't have the curiosity and passion of being explorers in their hearts-they were generally conservative and could travel on familiar lands. Living a stable life is basically the wish of most people.

There may be people like Columbus, but in this day and age... they can only be regarded as heretics.

Such thoughts made him feel apprehensive, but immediately Roddy realized that this was groundless worry, so he withdrew his thoughts and hurried on his way in silence.

The Beifeng Mountains are inaccessible, and the peak altitude is more than 5,000. Fortunately, the terrain is not complicated, and the speed of the team is still in line with expectations. As time went by, the scenery on both sides gradually changed from green pines and cypresses to low vegetation. Soldiers occasionally sighed in low voices at the clouds passing by. disappear due to lack of oxygen.

At noon on September 22, the team arrived at the entrance of the Corridor of the Brave in the Beifeng Mountains.

The Corridor of the Brave was the name given by the players in 591. Before that, the channel that could connect the warm world with the glacier plain was not known at all. One of the important purposes of Luo Di's group coming here this time is to open this corridor like the original players.

After resting, the team began to walk directly. Because the carriages could not enter, the goods could only be transported by pack horses-because the rest was proper along the way, and the horses had not yet died, so the physical burden of the soldiers so far was not heavy.

Light the torches,

If bats or other creatures appear, don't panic, squat down and stay still!

The sergeant repeated the precautions that Rody had instructed over and over again, and Soderol led the horse and walked in the middle of the team. Walking side by side with Rody, he looked ahead and asked curiously, How cold is it on the other side of the mountains?

At this time of year, the temperature there is equivalent to the deep winter in Efta.

Rody pointed to the cloak on his body, So we have to complete those goals as soon as possible. If it is delayed until December, the temperature will not be bearable by ordinary people...

He turned his head and did not forget to tell Akasha to wear warm clothes, but Suo Deluoer was obviously still worried about some other issues. He pointed to the front and continued to ask: Those barbarians... do we really want to wear warm clothes? Do you have contact with them?

The plan mentioned that Rody would deal with these aborigines living on the ice sheet, and Soderol was always cautious about this.

If we don't deal with them, our logistics will not be guaranteed.

As he walked, Rody briefly introduced some background about the ice sheet: The barbarians have lived here for hundreds of years, and they understand how to survive in that extreme environment, but it is difficult for us to rely on such a little baggage to support us. to return. So build a good relationship with them so that everything can go smoothly.

As for the method... have you seen those special knives? Metal weapons are invaluable treasures for them. Just give them something, and our food will be guaranteed.

Soderol didn't quite understand Rody's thinking. He frowned and said in a low voice, Are they trustworthy? Give the barbarians weapons, so you won't be afraid that the blade will be aimed at us?

If there are only barbarians on the glacier plain, then this method will definitely not work, Rody smiled. But... have you heard of the snow monster?

Not only Soderol, but also Akasha and Nata next to him were a little curious about what it was, and turned their eyes around.

There's another kind of... er, 'humanoids' that live on the ice sheets. They're more savage, stronger, and stupid than the orcs—they're weak at foraging, so you have to go find them. The barbarians want to... or use the barbarians as rations.

It is very clear after saying this, Suo Deluoer nodded, quickly sorted out his thoughts, and stopped asking questions. On the contrary, Akasha became interested and approached and asked, Will we meet the snow monster?

Basically not. The barbarians are very powerful in combat. In order to resist the severe cold and find enough food, their bodies are stronger than all of us. Basically, only barbarians who are alone will be caught and eaten by snow monsters. Three A barbarian soldier can completely kill the snow monster head-on. After the 'Corridor of the Brave' goes out, it is the territory of the barbarians, and the snow monsters dare not come here at all.

Rody is very familiar with this. After all, his Berserker deputy was learned from the barbarian tutor. A series of job transfer tasks were completed in the Glacier Plain. In terms of familiarity, he is more than enough to be a tour guide in the Glacier Plain.

You know so much.

Akasha was amazed when she heard it, and moved closer to Rody because the temperature was getting colder. Nata glanced at the side, pursed her lips, and continued to remain silent.

It took three hours to cross the mountains. After taking a break and eating to replenish energy, the team finally walked out of this hidden valley before sunset-and the moment they stepped out of the dark mountain 'cave', almost every day A soldier let out an exclamation of surprise...

Everything in front of me has become white.

Thousands of years of snow has turned the northern plains of the Beifeng Mountains into a vast expanse of whiteness. Although the sun is almost setting at this time, the afterglow of the sun is still extremely dazzling due to the reflection of the snow—this caused the soldiers to cover their eyes after admiring. He closed his eyes and tried his best to adapt to all this dazzling.

Soderol squinted his eyes and was about to order the team to be rectified, but some sudden noises made him suddenly alert.

Investigation team, find out the situation and report back!

After his order was given, Nata rushed to the top of the cliff in a few steps, because the wood elf's eyes are different from those of humans, and she adapts to the light faster. At this time, she just glanced around. He pointed to the bottom of the team: There are people there!

Roar--

As soon as her words fell, a muffled growl stopped the movements of the soldiers.

Rody hurried forward a few steps, and when he looked down, there was an undisguised astonishment on his originally calm face:

its not right…

Soderol followed. He had already drawn out his long sword and was ready to fight. However, after seeing the scene in front of him, he was also a little confused-This...what's going on?

Tens of meters away, four humans wearing animal skins were running desperately, and two of them fell unconscious on the ground beside them. It seemed that they were fleeing after being attacked. And these people's tall stature, strong physique, and brown-black hair all prove that they are undoubtedly the barbarians of the glacier plain...

But what puzzled Rody was that all these barbarians who had the potential to change jobs as berserkers would be chased by a snow monster.

Roddy, didn't you say that they are very powerful in combat?

Akasha also came to Rody's side, looked down and asked strangely: Or...is there something very scary chasing them?

That's a snow monster. Rody raised his finger and pointed to the guy who was less than two meters tall and covered in white hair, who was roaring and chasing after the barbarians: This is the most common snow monster...

More than ordinary? This is simply a slag snow monster! The most common snow monster in my impression is 2.3 meters tall! This guy's 1.9 meter figure is estimated to be a second-class disabled in the snow monster group, but is this guy actually beating six barbarians to run around?

Rody had a feeling of being slapped in the face by his own words: he used to say in front of a group of people how strong the barbarians were and how weak the snow monster was, but when it came out, he saw a thin snow monster running after a group of barbarian warriors...

What about the three savage snow monsters?

As far as Rody's prestige is concerned, the group of people around him almost obeyed him - but the scene at this time made Akasha, Soderol and even Nata look at him strangely, with faces full of Why is this different from the script? expression.

Eh... there must be a reason for this, Nata, Akasha, help them deal with that snow monster, so that we can also contact these barbarians.

Rody tried his best to keep his tone serious, but he was beating a drum in his heart: These barbarians are not low-level, even if they rush up and tear them with their hands, they can kill the snow monster. What are they running for?

He stood here frowning and thinking, but Nata's arrow had already shot out. At the same moment, the holy light that fell from the sky fell on the wounded barbarians—the battle changed instantly because of the joining of the two.

The snow monster was 'shot' in the arm by Nata, it screamed strangely, stopped and stupidly began to check what was missing on the arm, and it turned out to be a standard target and was immediately 'shot' through the throat by the second arrow...

The snow monster clutched his neck and fell to the ground in pain, then gradually died out in convulsions.

The injured barbarian stood up with a face full of surprise because of the healing technique, and the guys who were running not far away gradually stopped in their tracks. Their eyes were fixed on the snowman who was shot to death. Don't dare. Like a group of frightened wild dogs. Soderol gave his evaluation mercilessly.
