This is also the origin of the name of Yunwu Mountain District.

Dense fog means extremely low visibility, which is very disadvantageous for humans who mainly rely on vision to identify whether the surrounding environment is safe.

Many caravans traveling by land are often unknowingly approached by monsters, surrounded and then massacred.

Fortunately!

The two masked mages accompanying this time were both of low level, and they directly used [Wind Making Technique] continuously to blow away all the clouds and mist within a few hundred meters around the campsite.

The soldiers took the trouble to cut down some trees to make a simple fence, and dug traps behind the fence.

The mages also laid out magic traps.

Although these preparations are basically useless when facing truly powerful and terrifying monsters, they can at least let everyone know that the camp has been attacked.

After Jian Jian and Sir Crispian had a rather sumptuous dinner, they returned to their tents to rest.

While everyone else was eating and resting, Zuo Si immediately tried to activate the repaired talisman.

The next second...

A dazzling summoning circle suddenly appeared, followed by a huge construct that was almost four meters tall, with the main part of its body made of steel, but its hands made of fine gold material, appearing out of thin air in the center of the tent.
p>

However, because it may be too old, the body of the construct looks rusty, and its head seems to have been hit by something like a warhammer, with a large dent in the entire body.

But even so, when it saw the amulet, it still walked to Zuo Si as soon as possible to fulfill its duty of protecting its master.

Obviously, constructs such as shield guardians are different from golems, which only obey the orders of their creators. They are bound to the talisman itself.

Whoever holds this amulet will regard it as its master and obey every order given by the other party.

If the enemy steals the amulet, the shield guardian will automatically change his allegiance.

In addition, the shield guardian also has the special magical ability of the guardian.

For example, half of the damage suffered by the amulet wearer is transferred to the shield guardian;

Another example is that you can store a magic that is no higher than the fourth level and release it at a critical moment.

Since the Shield Guardian was originally designed to protect its master, it will treat this order as the highest priority.

It will do its best to block any attack against the talisman holder.

"Uselessly exquisite carvings and patterns, amazingly fine craftsmanship, and almost demanding requirements for materials... It seems that this is the work of an elf mage."

Zuo Si came to a conclusion after a simple inspection.

Because except for elves, no other race of mages will spend time and effort to make a construct used as a human shield just look beautiful.

In order to prevent this ancient shield guardian from being scrapped, he quickly took out four cards with one-ring magic [repair minor injuries] and unleashed them on the construct in front of him.

This spell can repair the life of any damaged construct, and the effect is just like casting it on a living person to treat minor injuries.

In the blink of an eye, the shield guardian's tattered body recovered to a certain extent.

But that was not the end yet. Zuo Si then took out a more advanced three-ring magic [Repair Serious Injury] card and continued to repair the shield guardian in front of him.

Originally, these magic cards specialized in repairing constructs were prepared for the Steel Golem.

But who knew that the steel golem was not used, but the shield guardian who came out halfway enjoyed it first.

When all such cards were used up, this giant construct finally revealed its true form.

"Soos. It looks so beautiful." Isadora exclaimed with wide eyes.

As the girl said, the fully repaired Shield Guardian not only has a very beautiful streamlined body, but is also equipped with a round adamantine shield on the outside of each arm, which can be used for defense or as a smashing shield.

Weapons of enemy bones.

The manufacturer was so troubled that he created muscles like human sculptures for a construct.

But this is just for decoration and has no actual use.

The facial features are made extremely handsome according to the aesthetic standards of elves, just like a hero coming out of a bard's story.

Zuo Si was a little confused, whether the Elf Mage was building the Shield Guardian according to the standards of a magic guard, or shaping it according to the standards of a work of art.

But one thing is certain, this is definitely the most ornamental of all the constructs he has seen so far

Even if it is displayed as a work of art in the living room, it will not be recognized by guests at all.

Thinking of this, Zuo Si also sighed slightly: "Yes, it does look very beautiful, but the cost must be very expensive. The Emperor's Tears gemstones inlaid in the two eyes alone may cost tens of thousands of gold coins. I would rather

Instead of those decorative things, make another one at half or even one-third of the cost."

After saying this, he directly counter-summoned the shield guardian and put it into the amulet, then turned around and put it around the girl's neck.

Isadora suddenly opened her mouth in surprise and asked in an uncertain tone: "Give it to me?"

"That's right. If you encounter any danger, you should summon it as soon as possible. Remember, psychic powers are not invincible. There are many creatures in this world that are immune to your mind control." Zuo Si stroked the girl's hand.

Hair warned.

"Well..."

Isadora blushed and nodded slightly, then immediately opened her arms and hugged Zuo Si's neck tightly, her eyes filled with naked and undisguised joy and attachment.

For her, Zuo Si is the only one of her kind in the world. Only when she is by Zuo Si's side can she feel at ease, comfortable and relaxed.

Soon, as the night got darker and darker, most of the people in the camp, except those responsible for keeping watch, had gone to sleep peacefully.

After all, long-distance travel is a very physically demanding thing. If you don’t get enough rest, you won’t be able to drive well the next day.

However, the people in the envoy did not notice that at this moment, on a mountain peak not far away, five people wearing magic masks were gathering here, monitoring every move in the camp through magic from a high position.

After a full minute, the leader asked: "What do you think is the possibility of a successful raid now?"

"Including the two white dragons, I think it's at least 70%." Another slightly fat guy next to him replied.

Behind him, there were two white dragons covered with white scales.

However, these two white dragons were obviously not voluntary, but were controlled by some powerful magical charm.

Their eyes look a little dull, without any hint of ferocity, cruelty or cunning.

"More than that! Don't forget, we also have a dozen winter wolves, a tribe of ice trolls, and a centipede demon insect. In short, let these monsters rush forward to test the chosen ability of Talona, ​​the goddess of poison and disease.

.If it is too strong, we will retreat. If there is a chance, we will attack again."

Another person whose voice sounded like a woman expressed her thoughts.

The leader immediately nodded in approval: "That's the truth. Although Irenekas agrees to cooperate in depth with our Emerald Society, it does not mean that we have to take too huge risks for him."

"In that case, let's do it. I don't believe how powerful a mere elect with weak divine power can be."

After that, everyone present gave attack instructions to the monsters behind them.

The two white dragons were the first to be attacked, leaping directly from the cliff and diving down at extremely fast speeds.

Following closely behind, the winter wolf and ice troll also opened their legs and ran towards the direction of the camp.

The centipede insect, which looks like an enlarged version of a centipede, drags its body more than ten meters long and charges with hundreds of legs at incredible speeds.

Although there are not many of these monsters, each one is extremely deadly.

Whether it is the white dragon, one of the overlords of the cold land, or the centipede demonic insect that can fight the white dragon evenly, they are the terrifying enemies that adventurers and caravans least want to encounter.

In comparison, although winter wolves and ice trolls feel a little weaker, they are also out-and-out ice killers.

Not long after, the white dragon with the ability to fly arrived in the sky first, swooped down and attacked the elite soldiers sitting around the campfire vigil.

The latter didn't even notice the danger from the sky, and was instantly turned into an ice sculpture by the terrifying freezing breath.

Even the bonfire that was originally burning was instantly extinguished by the terrible cold air.

"White...white dragon?!"

A guard guarding the door of the tent spotted the giant creature in the darkness and immediately shouted at the top of his lungs: "The enemy is attacking! Get up! Get up quickly! We are being attacked by a white dragon!"

"What? White Dragon!"

"Damn! Why did the white dragon attack us? We are not a caravan!"

"Idiot! Now is not the time to ask this! Pick up weapons with me and prepare to fight!"

"Mage! Mage! We need magic cover!"

"Pastor! There's a guy here who hasn't frozen to death yet and needs treatment!"

……

Suddenly, the entire campsite fell into panic.

No one can remain calm in the face of the dragon's attack, even the white dragon, which is known as the weakest and most beast-like.

"Damn it! What's going on? What happened!" Sir Crispian rushed out of the tent and asked loudly.

But before anyone had time to reply, a huge creature fell from the sky, opened its mouth full of fangs, and planned to bite the envoy sent by the six-person Council of Amn in two pieces.

Instantly!

Intense fear and despair surged out of Sir Crispian's heart, and various memories from the past flashed before his eyes like slides.
