Mercenaries and Adventurers Chapter 181

The cold air was heated along the nasal cavity, and then poured into the lungs, which lifted Zhao Ji's spirit.

He knocked **** his sore and numb thigh, and only made two dull impact sounds. Wearing a thick hard cowhide armor, it seemed that his knocking didn't have any effect.

Turning his head and looking behind him, the beast was still persistently crawling over. The flying wind and snow covered its body with a thick layer of snow.

That guy's persistent appearance made Zhao Ji feel mixed.

He had to continue to endure the soreness all over his body, wading through the thick snow to find his way to the south slowly.

After Zhao Ji finally crossed a windy mountain road, the wind was much less. He used his gloves to brush the ice and snow on his face, scraped off the snowflakes stuck to his eyebrows, and looked forward.

There is a large forest with undulating terrain in front, and the forest is also covered with snow, but the good news is that as the terrain changes and the height decreases, the snowfall in the forest in front appears to be normal.

Pieces of snowflakes are slowly falling from the sky. Without the strong wind and snow on the mountain peak, it is unbearable.

Blinking his eyes, Zhao Jiha breathed out a few breaths to make his eyes see more clearly. He stared into the distance and saw what he expected to see --- scattered fireworks scattered throughout the forest.

After activating his brain that was about to freeze, Zhao Ji guessed that the human smoke scattered in the forest must not be left by the farmers who lived there.

This place is already deep in the mountains and forests that are inaccessible, not to mention that the animals in winter are more ferocious than usual. Basically, normal people would not scatter their residences in such a large forest.

That's not safe.

Unless, the human beings who live there are themselves very dangerous people. For example, gangs of robbers who rob and kill people.

very good.

Zhao Ji took out a new shield again, made himself go up, and slid down from the gap in the continuous mountain peak.

He tried his best to choose the place with the gentlest slope. At the same time, he grabbed the handle of the shield with one hand, and used the tail of the spear with the other hand to support himself in the snow that slid past, changing the direction he slid down.

Zhao Ji felt that he was very talented in skiing, and was considering whether to build himself a pair of skis and ski poles that could move quickly on the snow this winter.

Putting down the visor to block the incoming cold wind, the whistling wind beside Zhao Ji's ears came into his ears through the sound hole left on the helmet. Although the whole body is very uncomfortable, Zhao Ji is very happy to slide down the mountain quickly at this moment.

"Hahahaha!" He couldn't help laughing loudly. At this moment, the deadly cold and the monster behind him were all left behind by him, and he freely used his shield to slide on this vast snow-covered land. For a moment, he felt extremely free.

All kinds of things that came to this different world were skipped before his eyes one by one, the panic and embarrassment when he first arrived in the different world, the time of self-learning language in the chamber of commerce, the boring time of day labor in the workshop, and hunting monsters for the first time because of a bet , the lively Harvest Festival, fighting goblins by all means, exploring the sun and moon in the ruins of the elves, sacrificing one's life to save the people in the bandit's lair, the battle between being raided by bandits and raiding bandits in Bingyu Pass, and, The confrontation with the chasing monster on the mountain behind him.

These experiences made him suddenly realize that he had only been in this different world for a year, and he had already done so many things, which was far more boring than his previous life, where he followed the life chosen by others. Walking on the road will also bring joy and self-knowledge of joys and sorrows.

At this moment, Zhao Ji was in a trance. He was thinking, but he didn't seem to be thinking about anything. His vision was blurred. The blood is reheated and pumped throughout the body.

The divine power seed of the Church of the Saturnalia, which had been hidden deep inside the body, also felt the excitement of its owner's spirit at the moment. It rotated, releasing the power that had been secretly supporting the owner's body, doubled.

Zhao Ji himself couldn't see his body under his armor. His whole body emitted a faint blue light of Saturn's divine power, and the sore and numb body tissues in all parts of his body gradually became active under the light of this blue light.

Goo uh.

A strange cry came from Zhao Ji's stomach. When he came back to his senses, he suddenly felt that his stomach was very hungry.

Coincidentally, just because Zhao Ji was distracted, he didn't notice that there was a small cliff in front of the shield sliding. He didn't realize that he was in a bad situation until his whole body was flying in the air on the cliff.

Zhao Ji, who was sitting on the shield in the air, failed to adjust his body posture in time. With a sound of Kulong, he fell headlong into the snow under the cliff.

Fortunately, after more than a day of snowfall, the snow was thick enough. After Zhao Ji fell into it, his feet leaked out and he was able to thump twice.

"Hey, hey, hey. It's really unlucky. I was so distracted that I fell down." Zhao Ji's voice came from the inside of the snow, and the voice was muffled, with a gloomy but playful voice. tone.

He tried his best to swing his arms around his body to slap away the snow around his body, then turned his whole body backwards and arched, and it took him a while to get himself out of the snow.

The main reason is that the armor on his body hindered his movements, otherwise he would have turned back one by one. But the armor on his body also protected him very well, so that when he fell into the snow just now, he was not injured by the things he was carrying.

After coming out, Zhao Ji tidied up his things, put on the shield again, and 'slowly' slid towards the edge of the forest not far away.

On the mountain, the monster rushed out of the area shrouded in high mountains and strong winds against the wind and snow and the thicker and thicker snow and ice on its body, and came to the south side of this mountain peak.

The wind and snow here suddenly weakened, making the frozen Warcraft feel a burst of joy. Although its body is full of magic power, it is not very afraid of the low temperature of the cold wind and snow blowing on its body, and the thick snow on its head. But being not afraid is different from not liking it. Compared with the cold winter, it still prefers the wet and rainy spring and autumn. Whenever raindrops fall on the world, it can use its eyesight with poor eyesight. It is to use the very powerful vibration perception to perceive the whole world patronized by raindrops.

It likes to hunt prey that is wet by rain. The wet taste allows it to eat water without spending more time looking for clean water. Just by swallowing the wet prey whole into its mouth, it can eat and drink a full meal.

Shaking the thick snow on his body, he revealed his dark mottled body surface. Without the convenient human 'eyes', it had no choice but to grow a spare big eyeball that it stored in the body at the original position of the human head.

Compared with human 'eyes', this thing is not easy to use.

And it's stupid, unlike human "eyes" that can talk to it and let it know things that it will never know in the forest.

For example, what is the name of this land, the names of those 'eyes', and the long sentences that those 'eyes' cursed at it.

It likes it all.

Occasionally, those 'eyes' are addicted to cursing, and they will communicate with it normally. The most frequently asked question is its name.

But it has no name.

Why does it have a name like a human being?

It has been the only one in the positive forest for a long time. All the animals in the forest will know that it is coming as long as they sense it. It can also know which animals exist in the surrounding large forest from afar through the vibration.

So, why have a name.

It barely opened its eyes that it hadn't used for a long time, and vaguely saw the large snow-covered slopes around it, which made it feel uneasy, and the experience not long ago made it also feel scared.

The situation of not being able to control oneself made it conscious from the beginning, and never experienced it.

So it paced restlessly on its five legs, and the long bristles on its body trembled with fear.

But the blurred vision saw the large forest below the mountain, which made it feel pleasantly surprised. It was really fed up with the flat ground without trees to climb, and the gentle **** covered with snow.

The few bristles attached to the ground could still sense that the human who humiliated it was also heading towards the forest.

Then, it's better to go down, go to the forest, and eat that human being. Maybe there are other animals in the forest that can be eaten to replenish the body tissue it lost.

Of course, it has to cross this large snow-covered gentle **** first, this time it can't be too fast, it has to take it slowly.

The monster hesitated for a while on the snow-covered gentle slope, and then lowered its body, carefully sticking to the rocky ground under the snow-covered ground, using those rocks to increase friction and prevent itself from rolling down again.

"Hold on to the rope!" the female knight yelled out loudly as loud as the strong wind on the mountain peak.

The other hunters held tight to the ropes tied around their waists, and walked step by step along the snow-covered road waded out by the people in front.

Naturally, Knight Lanisa walked in the front, and she walked in the front, followed by the beloved horse tied to the belt behind her, and then two young and strong hunters. In the middle of the team were several old hunters, and at the end of the team were the two strongest young hunters.

The surrounding wind and snow made it difficult to see everything, and sometimes it was impossible to tell the direction of north and south.

They can only rely on the senses of the female knight to lead the team to the south. According to the direction of the Warcraft seen before, that guy is indeed running all the way south.

It may be avoiding their crusade team, or it may be chasing that human being they have never seen before.

There are two opinions in the team, Lanisa Knight herself agrees with the former one, after all, she feels that the attack she brings to the monster is already very threatening. Unlike the powerful monsters that were conquered and domesticated by knights, these wild monsters that grew up in the mountains and forests had the same habits as animals.

As long as they are hurt, they will run away, and they will rarely fight to the death. Unless it is in the breeding season or in the territory, eggs and other things, those guys will fight to the death.

The monster in front naturally didn't exist, so she felt that the injured monster would chase and flee under their crusade.

Of course, the unlucky human who encountered a monster is also amazing. I was unlucky to meet a monster in the forest, but I was never eaten by the monster.

Such a person is exactly what her hunter team needs.

Compared with the shy monster that secretly preyed on humans on the roads of the village, the wolf-shaped monster that led a large group of wild wolves to wreak havoc near Wumi Lake was really difficult to deal with.

Thinking of the humiliating experience of being repulsed by the large pack of wolves led by the monster several times before, Knight Lanisa kicked out with a bang, kicking away the large thick snow in front of her.

The hunters behind quickly took out their weapons to be vigilant about the surroundings, and shouted with all their strength: "My lord, are there monsters hiding in the nearby snow? Do you want the team to disperse?"

Realizing that she had done something stupid, the female knight quickly turned around and explained to the nervous hunters behind: "No, no. There are no monsters around, and its crawling traces have been heading south. It's just, uh, just There was a big rock blocking our path. I didn't want to go around it, so I kicked it away."

The hunters all breathed a sigh of relief. The wind and snow around them were really not a place for bows and arrows. They were all afraid that the monster would be cunning and attack them in such a terrain where it was difficult to form a battle formation.

Fortunately, it was just a stone blocking the way, and was kicked away by the knight, a false alarm.

A hunter moved forward a little bit, and shouted towards Lanisa with a big mouth: "Sir, shall we find a place to take shelter from the wind for a while?"

"What? Take shelter from the wind? If you want to find a place with less wind, you have to take a long detour, and it will take you more time to pass through this place." Knight Lanisa said loudly.

Pointing at Lanisa's beloved horse, the young hunter in the front shouted loudly against the noise of the wind and snow: "No! It's your horse that is freezing to death. Take a look at it."

Lanisa hurriedly looked at the beloved horses who had been following her. Although these horses with peculiar bloodlines were strong and could bear the metal vests all over their bodies, they were different from human knights in that their vests were only made of a thick layer. The sackcloth acts as a barrier and keeps warm between the armor and the body.

At this time, the strong horse was fighting with all four hooves, crumbling.

The eyes exposed on the long visor of the horse's helmet were looking expectantly. Seeing that the hostess noticed its situation, it quickly spit out a mouthful of hot air, and then let out a pleading neigh.

"Oh, I forgot that when I came out this time, I didn't wear thick thermal clothing inside. Damn! Quick, move, there is a depression surrounded by stones in front, it should be less windy and snowy." She bumped her helmet against that of her beloved horse, and quickly pulled the horse towards the place she saw.

As she walked, she patted the snow on the horse's armor: "Baby, do you feel cold? It's okay, you'll warm up soon. The wind and snow ahead are less." The horse followed the hostess obediently, body Trembling followed closely.

The hunters behind also put away their weapons, tightly grasping the rope around their waists with both hands, watching the backs of the people in front and quickly following up.

Soon, the group of them walked to the depression surrounded by stones that the knight said.

It is true that strong winds cannot blow in here, and there is not much snow on the ground.

The hunters each carried the amulet of the Church of the Sun God borrowed by the knight, and could feel the temperature and feeling of the sun shining on their bodies at all times, so even if their clothes were not very thick, they were not suitable for walking through the mountains. Ice and snow areas, but none of them actually feel cold.

The wind and snow had subsided, and they gathered together to keep warm, chatting by the way, and relieve the discomfort of walking through the wind and snow.

"Hey, after crossing two such high mountain peaks in a row, you can show off to others after you go back."

"But compared with the crusade against the monsters, it is still too far away. After returning, tell others how we defeated the monsters, and that will be exciting."

"It's true, but when everyone is tired of hearing our experience of bragging about defeating monsters, isn't this experience of traveling through the snowy mountains in the mountains useful?"

"Well, there is a possibility."

On the other side, Lanisa put her amulet of the Church of the Sun God on the ear of her beloved horse, mainly because the neck and head of the war horse are too big and too long, especially the horse face, which is not so long for humans a face. The rope that came with the amulet couldn't be put on, so Knight Lanisa had to put the amulet on the ear of her beloved horse.

The horse's ears were also covered with a protective cover made of leather cloth. She untied the cover, wrapped the rope of the amulet around, and hung it on it, using the horse's hair to tie the amulet in place.

Put on the protective cover again.

Soon, the god's miraculous powers had good effect on the tired and frozen steed.

The war horse raised its head, looking suspiciously at the gloomy and gloomy sky covered in snow outside the stone depression, wondering why it felt like it was being illuminated by the sun in summer even though it obviously didn't see the sun.

After understanding the puzzled eyes of the beloved horse, Knight Lanisa whispered something in the horse's ear. The war horse nodded, as if he understood something, but he didn't seem to understand, he just liked the way the hostess talked to it intimately.

"My lord, you should give it some more of this. It's definitely right to drink some of this in winter." An old hunter came over, briefly checked the horse's reply, and then secretly put it in the inner pocket of his clothes. The small wooden bottle that was taken out was handed over.

The female knight took it over and saw that it was a small bottle of spirits brewed in the "Wharton's Full Belly" tavern in Kendall City. Knights who don't like to drink strong alcohol also know that this thing is not cheap, only this small bottle can make a strong man dare to put his whole body in the coldest weather~www.mtlnovel.com~ Take off your clothes and run on the road.

She usually drinks a little wine before and after training, but she doesn't drink such strong wine. She mainly relies on the paralyzing effect of wine on the body to avoid the soreness caused by daily training.

An average rider like her can only rely on this simple method to avoid muscle pain caused by overtraining.

"Thank you. For a war horse, this amount should be within the range it can bear." Knight Lanisa did not refuse, and directly unscrewed the cork of the wooden wine bottle, and put it into the mouth of the beloved horse.

The hot feeling of the strong wine made the war horse resist a little, but soon, it licked its tongue and rolled all the liquor into its mouth. The four hooves that were still trembling stopped shaking, stood up straight, and seemed to be more energetic.

It lifted its neck, swayed from side to side, became active, and exhaled warm air from its nose.

Seeing that the beloved horse was much better, Cavalier Lanisa returned the wooden wine bottle after drinking to the old hunter. The old hunter was also very happy when he saw the horse that had regained its vitality. The hunters in the team liked this horse of the female knight very much, so they paid close attention to its physical condition.

As the owner, Knight Lanisa often ignores the various conditions of her mount, which is also related to the fact that she did not intend to become a knight when she was growing up.

"Then what should we do now? Should we rest here for a while, or should we continue chasing the monsters?" Knight Lanisa took out the dry food that could be eaten directly from the backpack on the back of the horse, opened the visor of the helmet, and ate half of it in one bite. inside.

Several old hunters discussed it, and finally decided to take a short break first. Everyone in the team should eat and drink something. The worse the environment is, the more important it is to ensure that their physical conditions are kept in good condition.
