The sky to the north was gloomy, the clouds were faintly stirred, and the snow was getting more and more in the wind, and everything showed that a blizzard was coming.
At 4 o'clock in the afternoon, Allen and his party arrived at Rinfeng Gorge. Not long after going deep into the canyon, the trail of the sword demon was discovered. It is hard to imagine their purpose in the wild activities at the end of the winter, but nothing would be a good thing for humans. Allen found some traces one after another and traced them outside an ice cave. These holes eroded by wind and snow will be covered with thick frost and snow in winter, and traps are everywhere. Some places that seem to be flat, maybe there is a gap at the bottom of the foot that does not know where to lead, but it is blocked by frost, snow and thin ice.
However, the planetary environment of the Pluto star dictates that the temperature of a glacier zone like this one hundred meters underground will be warmer than the ground. Therefore, when winter comes, the external sword demon tends to hide under the crypt and spend the winter with the heating through the heart of the earth.
The devil’s nest in the mountain will only go down, not up.
Allen made a careful gesture and got into this ice cave first. The following three people entered one after another, shortly after they entered. The wind in Rinfeng Gorge intensified, and large groups of snow and fist-sized hail began to sweep the place. The snow mass is no more, these hail are like , hitting the entire Coldcrown Glacier with rumbling noises.
After the blizzard, I don't know how many mountains will be devastated. Hail is the culprit of the many ice caves on this glacier. After they smashed the mountain, the cold wind continued to erode, and the accumulation of time has made the mountain look like this.
Allen and the others crawled along a crypt channel diagonally downward. They did not dare to turn on the lights, for fear that the lights would attract the attention of the sword demon under the refracted ice and snow. Only the fluorescent stick was lighted up, and a corner was exposed in the chest pocket, illuminating the square inch.
This passage is covered with ice and snow, and people are in it, and it is cold. And the ground is smooth, it will slip if you are not careful. In particular, the angle of the passage is inclined downward, making it even more cautious for several people to get up.
Suddenly there was a strange whistle behind him, and Broy thought the sword demon had appeared. A jerked head back in the passage, the sole of the foot slipped, and the whole person slammed forward uncontrollably. Suddenly people hit someone, and several people quickly slid down. Fortunately, a few of them were of high quality and did not scream in shock. Especially Lucy, her face pale, but she didn't even shout, which was very rare.
Allen is at the forefront, desperately trying to stop the slip. But the is too sloping, and there is nothing to climb. At the moment the passage was in sight, Allen thought he was going to hit the mountain wall. However, looking through the fluorescent light in front of him, there was a void in front of him. He snorted and Qian Jun thrust into the ground abruptly. The frost-covered ground was inserted like cheese by Qianjunyi. As soon as Allen gripped the handle of the knife with both hands, the whole person was thrown out of the void by inertia.
"Catch it!" Allen chuckled softly, and a figure flew over his head. He freed his hand to reach out and took Bloy's arm.
Bloe grabbed Willick's feet with a big hand. In the end, Willick caught Lucy's hands on his head and feet, and the four of them hung on the mountain wall at the end of the passage.
As Willick hangs upside down, the glow stick on his chest falls. I saw a ball of fluorescent light falling off, first hitting a raised rock, and still visible frost and snow spreading. Rolling down further, the frost and snow gradually reduced, revealing the bare rock of the mountain. Finally, with a plop, he sank into a pond. With fluorescent light, it seems that the water in the pool is very deep, it should be an underground river vein. Due to the extremely high temperature in the center of the earth, these rivers never freeze in winter.
"Dump me there." Lucy looked at the raised rock.
Allen nodded, he adjusted his angle and drove everyone to swing towards the mountain. After going back and forth several times, Willick let go, and Lucy slanted down lightly, just stepping on the rock. It's just that the rocks are smooth, and she slips on them. Fortunately, the center of gravity was lowered in time, and the whole person was almost lying on it, so that he did not fall.
After Lucy was gone, Willick used his blazing gloves to eject the blue flames, dissolve the nearby ice and snow, and then inserted his five fingers into the crevices of the rock, without having to hold Broy again. In this way, Bloy was free to untie the big axe after the defeat. Use the axe to get into the mountain wall to fix his body. Allen immediately retracted his arm and drew a section of downhill rope from his backpack. He tied it firmly to Qianjun's knife handle, then pulled the rope and swung it down to the stone where Lucy was.
He beckoned, and Lucy jumped on him. The two embraced, Allen put the rope with one hand, and the two fell safely to the ground. After Willick and Broy also reached the ground using the downhill cable, Alan shook the cable hard, and Qianjun broke the stone immediately, raised a frosty sandstone, and fell into the nearby. In the pond. Qian Jun made a hum, and fell down with the sound of wind and thunder.
Alan stretched out his hand to fish, and then swiped the side to take advantage of the situation, unloading the huge force carried by Qianjun's fall, and raising a gust of knife wind out of thin air, buzzing and humming in the belly of the mountain.
There were footsteps deep in the belly of the mountain.
Allen frowned and made a hidden gesture. After he and Lucy hid in a few stalagmites, Bloy and Willick dispersed and found a few reclining rocks to serve as cover. Just after hiding, the light of fire appeared, and two sword demon holding torches appeared twenty meters away. Behind them is a deep passage, which seems to lead somewhere else.
The sword demon took a picture with a torch, and when he saw nothing unusual, he turned and returned.
After they left, the four came out of the hiding place. Allen said: "You are waiting for me here."
He has to go to reconnaissance alone. It's not necessarily a good thing to be crowded in such a place, and a few people have no objection. Allen took off his backpack, took off his camouflage uniform, and left with Qianjun alone. He got into the passage where the sword demon had left before, and this passage was only six or seven meters away, and there was a faint flame at the exit. Allen leaned forward carefully, and the passageway was a slope. The fire was shining below the slope, and several demons were making a bonfire on the ground.
There is still a passage behind the devil, but I don't know where it leads. Alan asked himself if he hadn't gotten the ability to kill these demons at the same time without making a sound, so he dispelled his plan to kill the ramp. He patrolled his eyes and saw several gloomy gaps in the upper mountain wall, which seemed to lead to the depths.
Alan silently touched a gap, and people rushed inside. At the beginning, the sight was dim, and gradually brightened, it seemed that there was fire light coming in from outside, obviously the mountain wall here was very thin. And beginning to hear the sound, Allen determined the position based on the sound and crawled in the direction where the sound was sounding. After crawling for a few minutes, he stopped, and the words of the sword demon sounded outside.
He used Qianjun to make a small hole in the mountain wall, and looking out, the fire light rose from below. Below is a clearing, some sword demon sitting around the fire. The number of them is not large. What is strange is that all of these sword devils have a low source of power. The source of light on them is stronger than that of ordinary tribe warriors, and the weakest in them is also a tenth level.
Among the sword demon, the demon sitting on a stone pier is the tallest. Judging from the brightness of Yuanli's light on his body, the sword demon also said that he had a level of seventeen or eighteen. This level of skill is enough for the role of chief when it is thrown into a small tribe.
Looking at this situation, the sword demon here does not look like a tribe. After all, they are too few in number, less than 30 people are not even a small tribe. And there is no clear division of labor, all males, not even horned wolves. The sword demon seemed to be talking, and because the two sides were more than ten meters apart, their voices were not high. Although Alan understands the language of the swordsmen, it is difficult to hear what they are saying.
Suddenly a thin sword demon stood up and shouted at the sword demon who looked like a leader: "Bazba, that's a sacrificial team of ten, we can't afford to provoke them."
"Coward." The leader of the sword demon roared with his chest rising and falling: "Don't look at the ten armies on the Alex Plain. They are no longer the previous ten, let alone ten and pay attention. The force is placed on the plain, how can you notice the sacrificial team on the barren land."
"But if we rob the sacrificial team, what should we do if Ten Department issues a beheading order to us?" Another Sword Demon asked in a deep voice.
The leader laughed loudly: "If we grab the sacrificial team, we can form a tribe by ourselves. At that time, we will hide here. The cold crest glacier has a complex terrain and is also near the human base. Unless the ten units want to pull the front Coming here, otherwise it will be difficult to move us. Hide for some time and wait until they have no time to pay attention. Then we will lay down the human base and swallow a few small tribes. At that time, did you know that we did it?"
"At that time, you will be the priests of the generals, and I will be the chief. Who would have thought that we would have robbed them of their sacrificial team."
There was a loud laugh from the leader below, and Alan stepped back, thinking that there was a bandit made up of sword demon. And it seems to be paying attention to ten games. However, the sacrificial team in Bazba's mouth made Alan very concerned. If he guessed correctly, it should be the ten sacrificial team sent to the holy site. Let’s not say whether this group of bold Sword Demon bandits can the sacrifice team, but if Alan follows them, he can find the sacrifice team, and may also find the Sword Demon’s holy relic.
According to Windsor Bello's speculation, ~EbookFREE.me~ the holy site may be the origin of the sword demon. As for Allen, there is more likely to be a record of demon praise. In private and public, Allen felt it necessary to take a risk.
He retreated to the hiding place of everyone before, and when Alan came back, Lucy came out of the hiding place. Allen called them aside and said, "Now that the wind and snow are interfering with the signal, we can't contact the base. We can only go back and upload the intelligence report here, but someone has to stare here. So, the three of you go back first. I stay here."
Going to the holy site, he didn't know what kind of danger he would encounter. Alan didn't want to pull the three in, but thought of an excuse to dismiss them. Willick and Bloy didn't think much about it, but Lucy was more concerned. She pulled Alan to another corner and whispered: "Tell me, what are you going to do? Your expression is not as simple as staying in place."
Allen smiled bitterly and raised his hand: "Well, the guys in there are bandits who are planning to do a business. I want to go with them, because the target of their robbery is people from the Ten Department. "
"Then why not bring us?"
