Two groups of people talked about their winter experiences to each other, and many things would be right.
The Destruction Rebirth Sect launched an attack when the heavy snow began. They fainted the people in the fortress and spent some time to modify the magic circle of salvation. When they evacuate, they would face snow and difficult roads. Although the snow would not be as thick as two floors at the beginning, if there were no people at the foot of the mountain to respond and guide, this section of the road would be a step-by-step crisis and could be killed at any time.
By this calculation, there are seven cult members who came to the Bingfeng Fortress to carry out damage, which is already the same as the number of "garrisons". This is definitely not a good thing. There are twenty fortresses in the Sunset Mountains. In addition to the Bingfeng Fortress, there are two other responsibilities to save wandering souls in winter. Have they also encountered attacks? This raises a question: How big is the enemy?
In the castle hall of the Bingfeng Fortress, there was no cheerful atmosphere of people gathering together in previous years to celebrate, and it seemed a little nervous. There was a huge basin on the table, with beans stewed with mutton. If it were normal, this kind of good thing would have been eaten up before it became cold. But today, under the stern eyes of Kelle, everyone just tasted it, and then hurriedly ended the reunion meal, waiting for Mr. Kipling to say something important.
"Kelly and Giles and I discussed it and believed that this attack would not happen again before the next winter. After the snow melted and the road was clear, the Knights' team would start patrolling the fortress again, and the possibility of the enemy coming again would be greatly reduced." The old man first gave everyone a reassurance, and then said: "But the destruction and rebirth cult has ceased to stop for so many years. Now it suddenly appears and dares to make trouble in the directly controlled area of ​​the Goddess Church. We must be vigilant."
"Next, Giles will send me to the Holy Trinity Castle to report this matter. Kelly will continue to be responsible for the defense of the fortress and arrange the nighttime work, at least stick to it until Giles and I come back. I hope we can find some new people, which is too difficult now."
Yes, there are seven people in total, old and young, and a devil lurking in it. This little manpower, daily training trivial matters, patrol the mountains, and destroying nearby monsters are all occupied. Even the repair work of the castle cannot be done, so I can only delay it again and again. Without the attacker, I could barely continue. Once the threat from the Destruction Rebirth Sect appears, the situation must be improved, otherwise something big will happen sooner or later.
"Let Ramsden go with you and take care of you. He is absolutely fine to drive and run errands." Tron pointed to the remaining people: "There are four people in the castle that are enough to defend, so we will definitely not let the enemy come in again!"
The old man Kipling shook his head: "Ramsden stays and helps Kelly on duty with Wumama. Tron, you and Feiqi go hunting the Horned Winged Warcraft, go and go back quickly. It will greatly improve the situation if you have an additional formal monster hunter. Sorry, you can't share more people with you this time."
"No, Feiqi stays, I can go by myself."
"Why don't you want me? I'll kick me around? I don't go to Holy Triangle Castle, I don't want me to guard the city, I don't want me to go out to hunt?" Feiqi sighed exaggeratedly and said to Tron: "I know you will definitely be able to successfully hunt the Horned Winged Warcraft, but I won't cause trouble for you. I can always speed up the progress, right? Didn't Lord Snow Owl say you should go and go back early?"
"Okay, then we'll set off tomorrow and come back as soon as possible." Tron calculated for a moment, and then said to Kelly: "Instructor, it will take about fourteen days to go back and forth."
Kelly shook his head, and for the first time he did not increase the price, but relaxed his request for Tron: "I will give you twenty days. I only have the dead Horn Winged Warcraft, don't die."
"We'll set out tomorrow morning, Ramsden, you'll get the carriage ready tonight." Old man Kipling rubbed his shoulders and said with a bitter face: "Oh, when you get old, your whole body will hurt when you move, so put more mats for me and prepare some easy-to-chew food."
This wish of the old man is not difficult to satisfy.
After being trapped in the snow in the Ice Peak Fortress for a whole winter, Feich couldn't wait to go out and let out the air, just like midnight. If you can go to the Holy Trinity Castle to see the majesty of the Sunset Mountain Fortress Group, that would be the best. However, considering that there are Paladins and goddess priests, as dense as sardines stuffed in cans, Feich is still a little cowardly. Next, it is also a good choice to go out to hunt monsters in the wild.
According to the records in the book and Tron's own observation, the Horned Wing is a creature that looks like a pterodactyl. Behind the pointed and long head are shoulders and forelimbs that extend to the extreme of both sides, and underneath are huge membrane wings extending to the knees of the hind legs. When flying, the Horned Wing is like an inverted triangle glider.
The horn-winged monster with gray hair looks ugly and does not have the elegant posture of a bird at all. However, it does not fly slowly and has a unique maneuverability. It relies on its huge and strong lungs to force and store air and separate lighter components from it. On the one hand, these lighter gases can be used to adjust the average density of the body to generate buoyancy, and can also be sprayed out when necessary for maneuverability or attack purposes.
It is because of the special structure of the lungs that the Horned Wings develop and skillfully use sound wave weapons. Whether it is direct attack, reconnaissance or deterrence, it has its own unique features. Tron has a crush on this ability of the Horned Wings, so he chose to use it as the core ability element of his enhancement ritual.
Feich and Tron went to hunt. Both of them were fighting power, and there was no dedicated logistics personnel in the team - usually this position was taken by the little fat Ramsden. They could only choose the most important, most durable and lightest supply belts, and rely more on collecting food on the road.
It is said that the sun is still cold. It is clear that the sun is already warm when it shines on your body, but the wind blows through the valley after the melting snow, and it still gives people a biting cold feeling. Therefore, keeping warm is still the primary issue in outdoor activities.
The two people wrapped themselves tightly with furry leather clothes on the inside, covering their heads to minimize heat loss. They were both wearing two layers of shoes and gloves. The inner layer was light, convenient, non-slip and wear-resistant, and the outer layer was kept warm from the cold. Along the way, they had to cross mountains and rivers. If they were too bulky, they would die, and if they were too cold, they would die. Then they could only choose a more troublesome double layer.
Therefore, Fitch and Tron look big and big-legged, with big hands, big feet and big heads, making them look smaller and shorter, giving people a cute feeling - especially one of them has a cat lying on the top of their heads. This image is no different from holding a sign that says "I'm cute and delicious."
If there are real creatures who think they are easy to bully, they can be regarded as a rare awakening breakfast after spring, that is really wrong. The two wooden sticks they never leave look like they are just hiking poles, but in fact, they will bounce back the sharp spear tips, not one but three. This three-fork spear that sprung forward with three forks is very useful to deal with the enemy that charges. As long as they are placed on the path, they will cause three bleeding wounds at once. But this is just a disposable weapon.
The real killer is a mace hanging on the waist. It is about 60 cm long, with a radial blade on the top, a thick wooden handle below, and an anti-slip pattern. It looks very inconspicuous, but has amazing lethality.
"If you give you a knife to kill horses and cows, you can try hard. A few or more than ten knifes may not die. Take this and knock it hard on the forehead, and then die to show you." When Kailie recommended this weapon, the terrifying and violent light emitted from his eyes made Feiqi frightened. "It's better to get a knife than a hammer. No matter how heavy the armor is, there is no good defensive effect on the hammer. If you kill the horn-winged monster, the thick shell on its head will have to be knocked open!"
Of course, great power is a benefit, but what Feiqi values ​​most is the easy-to-use feature of a weapon like a mace. Just pick it up and smash it down hard. It has lethality when it hits anywhere, and you don’t have to spend too much energy on it. Feiqi likes weapons such as mace, crossbow, and counterattack three-pointed spear. It is quick to get started and has great power, so it doesn’t take up much time to learn magic.
Since we talked about the three weapons of the "militia", with the nail hammer and the three-fork spear of the counter-storm, the crossbows with the characteristics of the Eagle School cannot fall. The horn-winged monsters can fly, and it is not possible to do without long-range weapons. They brought heavy crossbows, which can fire barbs tow ropes and crossbows. The barbs hooked the flesh, pulled the rope back, and fished the flying birds as fish in the water. However, heavy crossbows cannot always remain in the winding state, which is not good for maintenance and is not safe, so they cannot be used as soon as they are picked up. Preparations must be done first.
The two of them put on these things and set off just after dawn in the morning. At this time, the water vapor in the mountains spread, forming something that looked like fog, frost, and snowflakes. It was hazy, unable to see the way forward, and could not step on it. Fortunately, this frozen fog could not last long, and it would turn into slippery water at halfway through the morning, which would only affect the feet and not affect the sight.
The Sunset Mountains are very strange. Spring is actually the wettest, much more water than summer and autumn. No one knows that there is so much snow in winter. Where does the water that generates snow come from, but it definitely does not evaporate into the air in summer and autumn. Moreover, there is no regular wind here in the mountains, and the snow in winter is not blown by strong winds. This does not conform to Feich's general understanding of the climate. It can only be said that it is mysterious and mysterious.
Fortunately, it is not a changing climate here. What spring should look like. Therefore, the Horned Winged Warcraft should now be driven by its living habits. It has just woken up from hibernation, is hungry and thin, but it still has to take time to restore its membrane-shaped wings to its working state. At this time, the air in the mountains is still very cold and particularly humid. The Horned Winged Warcraft does not like to inhale this air in large quantities, which will effectively reduce its sonic attack ability.
In short, in spring, especially when spring is just beginning, the Horned Wing is the weakest of the year - the snow-covered mountains cannot be captured in winter. Since the discovery of this Horned Winged Wing last summer and positioned its nest, Tron has been waiting for this window of time. Now, he can't wait and no longer needs to wait. His high fighting spirit and hurrying steps have clearly shown this attitude.
Feiqi also understood that time didn't wait for anyone, so he gritted his teeth and used the three-pointed spear that put away the blade to assist him, trying to make himself go faster and keep up with Tron's speed. At the same time, he had to constantly use the Eagle School meditation technique to open up his entire domain vision to prevent being attacked by other hungry beasts.
