"Does it make sense to say this now?" Filolia looked very calm in the face of Leo's questioning, neither admitting nor denying it, just asked Leo in return.
Leo didn't need to ask more when he heard the words, and he didn't have much interest in the mother nest spaceship. Even though he knew very well that there must be other secrets hidden in the spaceship, he had no desire to explore. Because the ownership of that spaceship was more complicated than he imagined.
At first, Leo just thought that this mother-dwelling spaceship, like the rest of the spaceships in this world or in the world of Velen, was a lost ship without an owner, but judging from the signs that have been found now, it is clear that this spaceship has an owner. Yes, and even if this owner is not Bai Lu, he is still a mysterious existence with an extraordinary relationship with Bai Lu, and the spacecraft was also premeditated when it fell into this world.
As for what the premeditated plan should be related to this world, it may be related to why Bai Lu attaches so much importance to this world, why he arranges so many chess pieces in this world, etc. Leo did not intend to get involved in Bai Lu's plan. The best thing he can do now is to ignore everything related to it and avoid too much contact with the chess pieces that Bai Lu buried in this world, just like what he will do next.
After Leo wanted to understand, he stood up and said, "Since the treasure here has been discovered, there is no need for me to stay here. I think it is time to leave."
Seeing that Leo was leaving, Filoria couldn't help frowning, and she quickly understood Leo's thoughts, so she didn't make it clear, just smiled and said, "Actually, you don't need to leave so soon, especially It's now, don't you know that a black storm is blowing right now? If you leave now, you will lose your way in the snow field. You might as well wait for the storm to stop and go on the road with us. Didn't you say you were going to Movit Road? I The destination also happens to be Mowett Road..."
"No need!" Leo rejected Philolia's kindness and said, "You should be well aware that such a storm is not a big problem for people like us."
Seeing Leo's resolute attitude, Filolia didn't say much, but she still reminded: "Don't underestimate the black storm in the snowfield, now this black storm is only the first wave, the next few The Bosnia and Herzegovina storm is the highlight, even now I have to be careful in the face of those waves of black storms, the black storm's restraint on extraordinary power is not much worse than that." She said, pointing to the direction of the palm rock. , and then suggested: "I'll send you a guide! Although he can't help you resist the black storm, he can help you not get lost in the black storm."
After listening to Leo, he thought about it for a while, and finally did not reject Filolia's kindness, and nodded.
Seeing this, Filoria called in the men outside the tent, then thought about it, and ordered, "Go and call Hancock, I have a task to give him." After the order, she asked Lei again. Ou introduced: "This Hancock has been with me for more than ten years. Traveling to and from the snowfield is like his own backyard. Although the black storm is very dangerous, it will not cause him any harm. He can help you in the storm. Find the correct route to Mowett Road."
The two waited for a while, and Filolia's subordinate approached Hancock, who looked a little old.
Hancock walked in in a panic, and when he saw the greatly changed form of Filoria, his face couldn't help showing a look of shock, and then he felt the special power of Filoria. He couldn't help lowering his head, and his heart was even more panicked to the extreme.
His flustered state of mind at the moment was not only due to Filolia's power, but also because he thought Filolia called him here to smuggle contraband.
Just now, the pack beast carrying the smuggled goods ran into another team. As a result, when the people in that team cleaned up the goods, they also turned out the smuggled goods. He was about to receive the news. Before the news spread, I went to the leader of the team to discuss getting the things back, but Filoria sent someone to look for him at this time. It was hard not to make him associate with such a coincidence. Leah probably already knew what he was doing.
Hancock's obvious expression naturally did not escape Filolia's eyes. She quickly remembered the person of this old man and couldn't help frowning. Instead of talking about Leo for the first time, she seemed to have intentions. As if referring to him, he said, "It's whether you tell me honestly or I tell you. You should know that the meanings of the two are completely different."
Seeing Philolia say this, Hancock dared to make excuses, and quickly told the story that the Spirit of Knowledge Church entrusted him to smuggle a batch of church books, and even the deposit paid by the Spirit of Knowledge Church was also paid by him. Take it out.
"The Church of the Spirit of Knowledge?" Filolia couldn't help but stunned for a moment, as if thinking of something, then the expression on her face changed slightly, and soon returned to normal, and then said to Hancock: "The deposit is confiscated. , this time the team leader task is invalid, your transfer order is delayed, this is a punishment for you, do you accept it?"
"Accept, accept!" Hancock responded quickly, where he dared to bargain.
"I have assigned you another mission," Philolia pointed to Leo beside him, and continued: "This is my guest, he is in a hurry to go to Movit Road, you are his guide to follow him on the road ,"
"Now?" Hancock asked, surprised.
"Yes, it is now." Philolia said displeasedly: "If it were normal times, I wouldn't be looking for you. Others don't have the ability to be guides in the black storm, why? You have a problem. ?"
Hancock shook his head quickly and said, "No, of course not, my subordinates promise to deliver this guest safely to Movitello."
Philolia nodded, and then said: "In addition, take those church books you brought with you? As for whether you want to take them to Movitello or throw them away on the way, those are your business, I Never mind. Do you understand?"
Hancock was stunned for a long time before realizing what Filoria meant, and quickly replied: "Understand, understand!"
For him, although he lost a deposit and received some punishments, Filolia seemed to have acquiesced in his smuggling of the books of the Spirit of Knowledge Church, and allowed him to finish the smuggling, and then The balance should also belong to him, which is undoubtedly a windfall that was lost and recovered.
Filolia turned her head and said to Leo at this time: "Hancock has a strong sense of direction, even in the black storm, he will not lose his way. This ability is unique in my chamber of commerce. Guide, you don't have to worry about getting lost."
Hearing Phyloria say this, Leo also looked Hancock up and down, and then his mental net also checked the other party's body, and soon found that Hancock should be an extraordinary blood awakening. However, his bloodline did not bring him any supernatural ability visible to the naked eye, which could be distinguished from the weak fluctuation of bloodline power in him, but no more supernatural power reactions.
However, judging from Filoria's words, it is obvious that the extraordinary ability of Hancock's bloodline after awakening should be related to the direction. Otherwise, it is impossible for Filoria to mention the person's sense of direction so strongly. That's why Hancock was not expelled from the Chamber of Commerce by Filoria despite his misconduct and mistakes.
Leo asked what Hancock needed to prepare, and after knowing that he had something to prepare, he decided to leave with him.
Just when she left, Filolia handed Leo an identity token, saying that if she encounters any trouble in the city of the polar mountains, she can use this identity token to solve it, even if she doesn't think it will be caused by anything. Trouble can embarrass Leo.
After leaving the camp, Hancock wiped the sweat from his forehead, then led Leo to a campsite on the edge of the camp, and found the director of the campsite. It seemed that he wanted to get it from the director. Go back to the batch of church books he smuggled.
At first, the camp supervisor ignored Hancock, even though Hancock said that Philoria had acquiesced to him to smuggle the shipment, obviously he did not believe Hancock's words.
But when Hancock asked Leo to take out the token that Philolia gave him, the camp supervisor immediately changed his attitude and took out the batch of smuggled goods that he had seized, and also obeyed Hancock. Cork's arrangement brought an old pack beast for them.
These pack beasts of the Ice Bear Chamber of Commerce are a kind of long-haired beast specializing in the northern ice field. This long-haired beast is larger than an adult ice bear, has extremely high endurance and cold resistance, and can carry heavy goods. It is the best choice for caravan pack animals.
However, the temperament of this long-haired beast is not docile. Instead, it is very violent and aggressive, and it is difficult to tame. Therefore, there are only a few Northland Chambers of Commerce that can equip large-scale long-haired beasts, and the Ice Bear Chamber of Commerce is one of them. , and it is also the chamber of commerce with the most hairy beasts.
The reason for this is because, as a war bear priest, Filoria has an extraordinary talent in animal taming, not to mention long-haired beasts. Tamed, and even able to form an elite wolf cavalry, but now that wolf cavalry was sent by her to protect her tribe.
Hancock, as an old man who has been with Filoria for more than ten years, although he does not have the magical beast-taming skills like Filoria, he also has his own set of methods to control beasts.
When the rest of the caravan helped him put the unloaded smuggled goods back into the big hanging baskets at both ends of the pack beast, he walked up to the long-haired beast, reached out and gently patted the long-haired beast's mouth. , The long-haired beast, which was a little restless as he slapped, also calmed down, followed him to step on the ladder, stood up high, put his hand on the forehead of the long-haired beast, and then closed his eyes slightly, as if in Do some kind of religious ceremony with words in the mouth.
The people around him have become accustomed to this, and no one gave Hancock a second glance, but Leo, who was standing by and waiting for the preparations to be completed, looked at Hancock with a deep meaning, with an inexplicable smile on his face.
Because Hancock deliberately recited vaguely, even if he stood beside Hancock, it was impossible to hear what he was reciting, but Leo was different. His extraordinary five senses could clearly hear Hancock chanting. s things.
At first he thought that Hancock was reciting some mysterious prayer, but after listening carefully, he realized that what Hancock recited was actually nonsense with no connection. The real power that allowed him to control the beast actually came from Because of his bloodline, it should be a function of the power of his bloodline, and this ritual he did was just a disguise.
Soon Hancock completely controlled the old hairy beast, and after letting go of his hands, he could still control the hairy beast to kneel so that Leo could climb onto its back.
After Leo climbed onto the back of the long-haired beast and sat on a specific seat, Hancock also climbed up and sat in the position of the guard. At this time, the people on both sides had already packed the smuggled goods. , and covered it with a layer of other goods.
Seeing that the preparations had been completed, Hancock directed the long-haired beasts out of the camp and into the forest. When they walked out of the Filoria storm shielding force field and entered the black storm, the long-haired beasts. Under the command of Hancock, all the long hairs on his body were rolled up, wrapping Leo, Hancock and himself in the thick long hair, isolating the wind and snow from the outside.
Although the black storm is very strong and can easily pull up a tree, the weight of the long-haired beast plus the weight of the cargo turns it into a huge rock, and the black storm can only deflect it a little. But it couldn't blow it down, and it was also walking steadily in the blizzard in the dark snow field.
The two passengers on the back of the long-haired beast looked very stable. The rolled-up long hair insulated them from most of the cold and storms outside, and the heavy padded coats kept them from feeling too much cold. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com
Leo took advantage of this time to continue sorting out and absorbing the books he got from the wizard tower, and Hancock was also carefully sensing the direction, constantly adjusting the mammoth's travel route to avoid getting lost.
The black storm on the snowfield is obviously different from the ordinary storm. For example, its duration is much longer than that of a normal blizzard. From the beginning of a black storm to the end, it will take about a month to gradually calm down, but The situation of the first black storm is slightly different, because this black storm is more like a warning, warning people who are seeking a living on the snowfields, a stronger black storm is coming, and it is necessary to prepare in advance, so it continues The time is also very long, only a few days.
Leo and the others walked in the black storm for about three days, and the surrounding blizzard gradually stopped and finally disappeared completely. You can see the shadow of a line of snow-capped mountains, and it seems that the polar mountains should be approaching soon.
For this reason, Hancock, who had become exhausted, drove the equally exhausted Long-haired Beast to speed up his steps, and rushed towards the blurred snow-capped mountains ahead.
