Chapter 3 Using a Knife

The snow-capped mountains at noon are shining with the sun. At night, it becomes a forbidden place for living creatures, an extremely cold and perpetual freezing field. Any creature that requires heat to survive, if you take action here, you will be in a hellish test.

Elos took a thicker winter suit from the trunk of the G807 and wrapped it around him. In order to keep his movements happy, he suppressed the urge to wrap himself into a dumpling.

After all, motorcycles cannot drive up the mountain. Not only because the road is rugged, but also because it snows again at night. When it stops on the snowy mountain, it will be covered by the accumulated snow. Not to mention whether the body itself will be damaged, whether it can be found will be a problem.

The blonde woman named Joey had been exploring the terrain of the entire snow-capped mountain. She seemed to be looking for some key terrain characteristics to confirm where the dragon died.

Elos also asked the woman on the way about why she was looking for the dragon's corpse. Elos was really afraid that she was a fellow traveler, and all her enemies were enemies. Elos didn't want to start choking with her so soon.

Fortunately, Joey's reply made Elos feel at ease. It is said that she wanted to find something hidden by the dragon, and she judged that the dragon would bring that thing into the coffin.

Compared to the illusory dragon corpse, Ailos was actually more focused on his own affairs along the way and searching for the Flower of Winter Hidden. He had already flipped the snow layer countless times along the way, but he could not find the Flower of Winter Hidden under the snow layer.

Joey didn't mean to help him, and Elos could only complain about the damn snow mountain. Why didn't there two stinky mice come out and let himself tell them about their dirty feces and see if they could find some clues.

The wind at night became much stronger, blew the thin snow on his face. The area on Alos's face that was not covered by a windproof mask was like a knife cutting. His skin began to gradually dry and crack. He could only chew the frozen bread and slowly move forward in the half-foot-deep snow.

In front of him, faint starlight flashed, and the dark sky revealed a depressing aura. Joey looked up at the scenery in the distance. She was thinking about the transformation effect of the dragon's power on this terrain, which would guide her to find the dragon's death place.

After the powerful natural creatures die, they will bring some change to a land, whether good or bad. Their powerful energy will slowly change the ecology of a place, just like the ancient legendary whales falling.

Thinking seriously will make a person lose his ability to observe things around him, and even the extraordinary is no exception. Joey obviously did not notice the large amount of smoke and dust rising in front of her, which was the dust buried under the heavy snow, and the horrifying cries of beasts came from the dust.

Elos immediately made a decision and pressed Joey down with one hand. He pressed her body into the snow, and he was also pounced on the side and lowered his body, "You're not going to die?"

"What's wrong?" Joey's head took off Elos's palm, still a little confused.

"It's time for us to look back, we can't stay here anymore."

"What happened ahead?" Joey then noticed the abnormality ahead.

The smoke and dust followed by changes. Under the stars covering the night sky, monsters with hideous heads and snow cloaks stepped out step by step from the smoke and dust. There were not many, about seven or eight, but the terrifying arc-shaped barbs on their backs flashed brightly under the starlight.

"That's the snow dust monster. They sleep under the snow during the day, and they will come out to feed against the cold wind at night. They use their thermal antennae to explore things. The heat in our bodies is too high and it is easy to attract them."

While explaining the situation to Joey, Alos covered the cold snow on himself to lower the surface temperature. Joey also followed suit.

Elos's actions just now made Joey trust Elos a little more, "What should I do now?"

"As they haven't found it yet, evacuate slowly, they are not particularly sensitive to sounds."

"good."

After the two of them covered a thick layer of snow everywhere, they bent and started walking back. The white snow reflected a dark light at night, and the starry sky floated behind the two of them. The distance between them and the snow dust monster began to grow farther, and the vast and quiet world began to return to their vision.

In the distance, the trend of the mountains became increasingly blurred under the dim light at night, and the direction of their journey began to become elusive, but neither Alos nor Joey dared to ignite the fire. The deadly snow dust monster was not far away, and they would be attracted by the violently burning flames.

Elos and Joey, two travelers who were looking for their own needs, stood at the height of this snow-capped mountain, and looked farther away, as if the next moment, they would be completely buried by the heavy snow and the bitter wind.

"I'm going down the mountain, the temperature will be lower at night, and something will be easy." Elos preached to Joey.

But Joey looked at the mountains in the distance again, and her eyes flashed with a light blue light. She drew a circular lens with her palms. This lens floated in front of Joey like a bubble. Looking out from this lens, the mountains became clearer, and a certain specificity was revealed among the mountains in the wind and snow.

The faint five-colored light scattered and swung in the sky. The sky was like the sea of ​​light, allowing these ripples to echo in the night sky. Joey carefully distinguished the light because the light was gathering in one direction, and that direction was just a vague direction. Joey needed to carefully compare the details.

When Elos saw Joey suddenly standing in front of the lens and stopped talking, he walked to her and looked, but with his limited natural knowledge, he could not see any tricks at all.

After a long time, Joey finally identified the gathering point hidden in a pile of light and determined the direction.

"It seems we're going up the mountain again," Joey preached.

"Ah?" Alos thought that this woman was crazy for a moment. Going up the mountain, do you want to face the front with that group of snow dust monsters? Could it be that you are the true extraordinary person who broke free from ordinary chains in the legend?

For a moment, Alos thought he underestimated the blonde lady who had been with him for a long time. After all, although Alos had never seen a truly extraordinary person, there were still some, but he didn't expect to meet one today.

Regarding his inner doubts, Elos continued to preach, "Are you really extraordinary?"

Joey's answer was surprising, "Not yet, far from it."

"Then what's the difference between you and seeking death? That thing is not soft or hard. The leather armor is as thick as steel, which we can't get."

"The dragon's death place is on the top of the mountain behind the snow dust monsters."

“Can’t you come back during the day?”

"I can only find that place at night."

The light during the day was too fierce, and Joey could not distinguish these special lights from various visible lights.

Elos pursed his lips, and it was difficult to deal with it now. This was a real wealth and danger. He would definitely not be able to use the corpse of this dragon now, but if he didn't follow Joey now, it is very likely that he would not be able to find the corpse of this dragon again. This weighed Elos.

Joey spent most of his time on the snow mountain today before finding a clue at night. If he had done it himself, he would have been blinded and he would not be able to find it in his next life.

Corpse, especially the corpses of powerful creatures, even if they are just some broken arms, are more precious than any gold and Mithril treasure mine for the corpse collector.

Elos gritted his teeth and thought that there was nothing wrong with having big votes. He was just a bunch of snow-monster monsters, but he could still run away if he could beat them.

"Okay, I'll follow me, bypass the Snow Dust Monster, right? I have a way." After Elos made up his mind, his movements were also amazing.

Joey looked at Elos who had quickly changed state and was a little surprised. The man was thinking about going down the mountain to escape the life moment ago, but unexpectedly, he turned around so quickly to propose a solution to the problem. She didn't know whether this was the tempting wealth or other reasons.

No matter what the reason Ailos changed, Joey had to follow his plan to do things. After all, in terms of understanding this area, she was far less than Ailos.

Continue up the mountain, under the starry sky, before walking a few miles away, I saw the Snow Dust Monster twisting out a few hibernating long-eared animals from the snow and chewing them in my mouth. It was so painful that I could eat and wipe it all away, and even half of my blood fell to the ground.

In addition to their huge and hard bodies, these vicious monsters also have sharp teeth that allow them to tear the food apart quickly.

Late at night, there was no moon in the sky, only stars and mottled spots. Elos took Joey to touch the snow dust monsters.

Carefully staring at the direction of the monsters, Alos silently took out a soft coal ball that he had kneaded long ago, a flammable substance. This thing was originally used to ignite torches. It has a soft texture, but it has a certain quality, and at least it will not be blown up by the wind so easily.

"Remember, next, when you see the sky full of sparks, we will rush behind these snow dust monsters together."

Joey was also a little funny when he heard Elos's statement. He clearly wanted to ignite these coal balls and throw them out. The sky was full of sparks, and he was quite romantic.

Elos looked at Joey with a smile on his face, not caring too much about what she was thinking. After confirming the position, he quickly threw all the soft coal balls in his hand into the air, and then quickly moistened his fingers and the flames stained the coal balls bit by bit, bringing up a faint heat.

After the flames had stained all the coal balls, Alos snapped his fingers several times, causing a strong burst of air, exploded all the coal balls and splashed in all directions. The ignited coal balls quickly exploded in the air, marking the traces of flames.

Looking down from above, these exploded coal balls flew up and fell one by one. The ignition flames appeared little by little in the sky, gradually covering the stars, like burning a big hole in the dark sky. It was as Alos said, sparks filled the sky and fell on the earth.

However, neither Joey nor Elos had time to enjoy such a view. The Snow Dust Monster's perceived vision was quickly attracted by these ignited soft coal balls. Their huge bodies evacuated from the middle of the road in front of them, attracted to the ignition flames falling from the cliffs on both sides, and chased them.

Alos and the others quickly passed through the gaps that were empty in the snow dust monster. The peak was right in front of them. Joey could even see the sharp ridge under the stars in the sky. But at this moment, the two people who thought they had passed by safely trembled in their hearts.

They rushed through the path of the gathering of snow dust monsters, but they seemed to have crossed a certain boundary. All the snow dust beasts quickly turned their heads and began to gather towards them. Their arc-shaped barbs flashing under the starlight began to shake constantly. The cold wind was cold, and their eyes were as red as blood.

"It's over, it seems they are the guardians here."

"That proves that we are on the right path." Joey took out a pair of magic gloves from the backpack he carried, which was a wrist guard. The center of the glove was inlaid with a gem of amplification power. There were many rune lines along the body of the glove. The whole was pure black and well-made.

The Snow Dust Monster walked in the snow like a flat ground, and was extremely fast. Joey and Elos could not escape the beasts no matter what. They surrounded them and stared at them. Now there is only the option of fighting.

Joey was wearing magic gloves, and Elos didn't plan to use the two gadgets of Qi Blast and Fire to deal with the current situation. His right hand began to change, blood began to flow faster, muscles condensed in whole pieces, palms closed, all nails stretched, and finally the whole hand slowly became curved.
