The witch hunter has always advocated self-reliance, and the same is true when Kelmohan spends winter. You have to find a way to replenish the things you use.

The herbal materials in the formula for strengthening corpse-eating bio-oil is not difficult to pick. The witch hunters always habitually pluck their hair when traveling abroad, and bring back a lot of herbs and ore materials every year.

What are more troublesome are biological materials, such as bear fat and rotten blood.

As we all know, biological materials are prone to deterioration, and there is no cold storage in this world.

Most of the time, witch hunters will use biological materials nearby when they need to use them.

Xin Sheng’s alchemy mastery is still relatively superficial, so he can only prepare the materials strictly according to the formula.

Alchemist like Visemir can choose materials more freely.

For example, after killing the ghost, you can obtain a residue called Shadow Dust.

A skilled alchemist can extract sulfur from it, and the effect of using is no different from ordinary sulfur.

Similarly, extracting materials such as hop hearts and crow eyes can also be used to replace the rotten blood of demons that cannot be found for the time being.

In terms of understanding the essence of the materials required for each formula and finding suitable alternatives, Xin Sheng cannot do it as easily as Visermere, and can only confirm it repeatedly by flipping through books.

Because the entire alchemy system is too complicated.

Hop hearts and crows are common animals and flora, and are nearby Kelmohan Castle.

As for the bear...

In the extremely cold blue mountains, bears must enter a state of hibernation in winter.

Bears are semi-hibernating animals and are easily awakened during hibernation, but their risk is still reduced compared to normal conditions.

In order to facilitate the acquisition of materials at any time, every witch hunter is an expert in hunting.

Of course, Visemir is not as good as a full-time hunter like Xin Sheng in this regard.

The next morning, Xin Sheng and Visemir rode horses away from the main entrance of the castle and gradually penetrated into the snow-covered blue mountains.

Kelmohan's gate was broken in the previous invasion.

Since it is not convenient to travel a long distance in winter, Lambert, Escar and others could only piece together the damaged doors and repair them for the time being.

They plan to wait for spring to come and go out to the nearby villages and customize new gates from carpenters.

"Puff~"

The severe cold of more than ten degrees below zero made Pegas feel uncomfortable. When walking through the mountains and forests, he often made a sniffling sound like he sneezing.

Pegas originally lived in ancient Greece's wild horses, and the temperature of that land rarely dropped below zero.

It is normal to suddenly enter such a cold area and not adapt.

The horse that Visemir rides is a typical alpine breed. It has a strong body and is highly adaptable to the cold. He walks freely in the mountains and forests with his head held high.

Before being tamed by Xin Sheng, Pegas was the king of a wild horse race. His self-esteem as the king of horses did not allow it to lose to other tribes.

After being instilled with vitality by Xin Sheng, Pegas can maintain its peak period for a longer period, and its body undergoes some changes that Xin Sheng cannot detect.

When he first entered the plain forest, Pegas was very uncomfortable for a while and started to breathe heavily before running. Xin Sheng and Visemir had to slow down to restore their strength.

But as time goes by, Pegas's breathing frequency gradually decreases and his pace becomes more and more powerful, and it seems that he has adapted to the extremely cold environment in the Blue Mountains in a short period of time.

"What a good horse, I adapted to the snow-capped environment so quickly."

Visemir looked at Pegas under Xin Sheng in amazement.

The dark horse, who was panting before, could now walk around and keep up with the speed of the mountain horse. From time to time, it would walk forward with great strength and no longer see the previous struggle.

Xin Sheng was also a little puzzled by this, and gently stroked Pegas's neck, confirming that it did not show off before retracting its worries.

‘Adaptive is getting stronger?’

Not just Pegas.

Dahuang, who was huddled in Xin Sheng's arms, turned against her previous sleepiness and began to watch everywhere with great energy.

"Spit~"

After flying in the sky for a while, Daedalus landed on his master's shoulder with a covered in snowflakes.

"Puff~"

Under Visemir's funny gaze, Daedalus shook his body and flapped his wings, and half of the snowflakes covering it were thrown on Xin Sheng's face.

“Uh~”

Xin Sheng wiped his face helplessly. He could guess that Daedalus was expressing his dissatisfaction.

"Thank you for your hard work, let's take a break first and wait until you need it."

Flying against the biting wind and snow is definitely not a good experience. Xin Sheng can understand Daedalus's little emotions.

"Xin, look here."

Wisermire suddenly grabbed the reins and jumped off the horse, stepped on the snow and walked under a big tree, carefully pushing away the snow layer on the ground.

"This is one of the raw materials needed to strengthen corpse-eating bio-oil."

Visemir dug out a dark yellow fungus plant from under the tree. Xin Sheng quickly dug out a complete collection of alchemy materials and compared them with the actual objects.

"Woooooo!"

When Visemir was teaching Xin Sheng how to correctly dig out the ghost needle straw mushroom, Rhubarb seemed to sense some danger in the whistling sound of the wind and snow, and bent down and growled in a warning.

Dahuang had never made any judgment mistakes before. Xin Sheng immediately took off the Artemis bow from behind, and his sharp eagle eyes scanned the snow-white mountains and forests.

The witch hunter has strong five senses. Although he is not as good as the hunting dogs that have received special training, Xin Sheng and Weissemil also heard the movements in the forest one after another.

“Sand ~Sand ~”

Some object stepped on the thick snow on the ground and made regular sounds, probably approaching their direction.

"Shh~"

Wisermil's index finger made a silence in front of his mouth, and took the lead in leading the mountain horse to hide behind the coniferous plant bush beside him. Xin Sheng hurriedly led Pegas to follow.

The plants in the cold zone grow taller, and the snow covers them just enough to cover the horses.

As the uninvited guests approached, Xin Sheng and Weisermil saw each other's appearance through the cracks between needles and snow.

Walking through the snow was a team of six ghost knights. When Visemir saw these translucent creatures, his face became very serious.

He had already guessed the origin of these Ghost Knights.

Xin Sheng narrowed his eyes to cover up the chill that flashed in his eyes.

‘Wild hunting, why would they know I’m here?’

Xin Sheng and Weisermil went out to collect materials completely temporarily, and they set out lightly without carefully preparing the itinerary.

Visemir expects that it will only take 2-3 days to enter the mountain this time and does not carry much dry food.

Even so, Wild Hunting followed closely, which made Xin Sheng subconsciously wonder whether Kelmohan had the eyeliner installed by Wild Hunting.

‘No, with Visemir’s skill, if an apprentice had a bad intention, he would have seen it long ago.’

The six ghost knights stopped more than 10 meters ahead of Xin Sheng and Weissemil's hiding point.

The knight in the lead took out a blue crystal and activated it with magic power. The crystal suddenly emitted a faint light towards the side where Xin Sheng was.

"Swish~"

All the ghost knights looked at this aspect at the same time, Xin Sheng almost subconsciously shot the arrow that was tying on the string.

Visemir hurriedly held Xin Sheng's hand and shook his head silently.

Although he didn't know what the Demon Hunter Master wanted to do, Xin Sheng chose to believe him, temporarily moved the war bow down, and held his breath and stared at the Ghost Knight who was getting closer.

"Sir~"

‘What?’

The strange sounds coming from beside him made Xin Sheng subconsciously turn his head. He saw two spherical objects from Visemir's hand.

The short leads on the sphere have been ignited, and the sound comes from here.

'……bomb?'
