Chapter 405: Mountain climbing! Challenge yourself! Break through the limits!
"What?"
Serila flapped her wings and suddenly raised her head.
The faint smell of rain and coniferous forest swept down with the wind. Looking up into the distance, thin clouds and mist lingered on the mountainside, blocking the sight of my aunt and her husband. Cerela raised her head and shouted:
"Auntie, they are my friends!"
"I know...come up..."
The voice was vague. Cerela grabbed a handful of rocks angrily, and the stone as big as a human head disintegrated under her feet, and the bones rolled down. Damn it, my aunt had to listen to her words, mainly because she was carrying two people, and then carrying them.
Auntie's pressure can't be reached at all...
She did not return to her human form, her slender neck bent down, and she came close to Gretel:
"Grete, wait here, I'll go find my aunt! - Huh, my friend, I can't even bring him here myself!"
He flapped his wings, whipping up a gust of wind, and flew high into the sky. He penetrated into the clouds and disappeared.
On the platform outside the dragon's nest, a much taller silver dragon lay there and waited quietly. Cerira converged her wings and swooped down, almost hitting her head-on. She stopped hard at the last moment:
"Aunt, aunt! They are my friends, why did you let them climb the mountain by themselves! I don't want you to pick them up, I will take them up myself~~~I will be angry if you don't agree again! I will just leave with them! I
Let’s go now!”
Her long neck was touching the shoulder and neck of the elder silver dragon, rubbing against it, making a lot of noise. The elder lay quietly on the platform and let her act coquettishly. After a while, the dragon's claw lifted up and threw a piece over.
Shining magic crystal:
"Auntie is doing it for his own good. Besides, this is also the request of his elders. I just follow it. Then, take a look~~~"
Serira muttered and took the magic crystal. Magic input, and soon, a figure floated up and spoke:
"Dear Lady Ophelia..."
If it had not been for the request, the silver dragon Ophelia would not have taken any action to embarrass Gretel. Long before the little mage stepped into the wilderness, even long before he and Cerela left the royal court and set off north.
, he entered the sight of the silver dragons.
Silver dragons are different from five-color dragons. They have a more family-oriented concept and take better care of their young. Newborn dragons will not be kicked out of the nest when they are young, but will stay with their parents until they are teenagers.
Leave your parents to travel.
Teenagers walking outside are not alone. They often receive support and help from their parents and elders. Naturally, the human mage who saved the little Princess Yuehui and stayed by her side was killed by more than one adult dragon before he knew it.
, observed in various ways.
A low-level mage, he is also a priest of the God of Nature. In the dwarf king's court, on the way north, he heals diseases and saves people, heals diseases and saves people, heals diseases and saves people...
Try your best and don’t reject anyone who comes.
It can be said that there is quite an appetite for silver dragons. Even if there is no introduction from Serrela, the silver dragons will still welcome you to visit the dragon lair directly.
but.
but……
The silver dragon Ophelia turned her head and glanced at the magic crystal. This was a legendary mage from the Magic Council who had just asked someone to send it to her a month ago. The purpose was to ask her to take care of the little guy and give him some.
Pressure, let him advance quickly and stop lingering on level 4!
As we all know, climbing the dragon's nest under the power of a dragon is a good way to face pressure and challenge yourself. The advantage is that it is gradual and the risks are controllable. The intelligent race near Ophelia, the young mountain eagles, often have troubles
Come and climb if you have nothing to do.
As for the disadvantage, the disadvantage is that the popularity of this method is too low. It is difficult to find the dragon's nest. Once you find it, the dragon will be willing to sit back and watch you climb up instead of knocking you down with a magic spell. Unless you are familiar with the dragon, the chance is unlimited.
Approaching zero...
Cerira read and re-read the information in the magic crystal. After flipping it over and over a few times, she threw the magic crystal back and flapped her wings twice:
"Then...Auntie, should I go down now and crawl with them in human form?"
"What do you think?"
"Woo..."
At the foot of the mountain, Gretel was emptying his space bag and taking out all the equipment. Food, water bags, leggings, hiking poles with wrist straps... In order to prepare for climbing the dwarf holy mountain, he did not have all the equipment needed at the time. Unexpectedly,
It’s actually used here!
As for Cerela taking them up, considering the comparison of the combat power of adult dragons and young dragons, Gretel had no hope at all. Sure enough, after a while, a long gust of wind blew down, and the familiar voice of the silver dragon girl came:
"Grete, I was imprisoned by my aunt... Climb up by yourself. Come on, it's not difficult! My aunt said that even an ordinary person with perseverance can reach the top in three days at most! I'll wait for you on the mountain!"
Three days is almost the same. In my previous life, I climbed Mount Everest, starting from the North Slope Base Camp and climbing to the top in four days. Gretel was thinking, if you can climb the Dragon's Nest from here, you don't need to climb more than 3,000 meters, right?
Besides, the pressure of climbing more than 3,000 meters on flat ground is absolutely different from climbing more than 3,000 meters on a 5,000-meter plateau! Standing here, he has no altitude sickness at all!
Climb!
Grete put on leggings, carried a water bag and a food bag, and prepared to open the way. Holding a hiking stick in his hand and an oak staff from the Church of Nature in his right hand, he stepped onto the hillside. A few tree roots quietly poked out from the bottom of the oak staff.
, ready to dive into rock crevices to save its master at any time.
By the way...which way is the way to climb the mountain?
"Gretel, look over there!"
The barbarian raised his arms high. Gretel stood on tiptoe and looked at it, happy.
There is a cone-shaped pile of stones poking out from the hillside not far away. A branch is inserted at the top of the pile. Under the branch, a triangular stone is painted ocher, with the sharpest corner pointing directly up the mountain.
Gee, isn’t this a road sign?
"Bernard, let's go!"
"Wait a minute, boss, I'll go in front of you to clear the way!"
"This... you should walk behind me. If I miss the mark, you can still stop me..."
After training in the Dwarf Holy Mountain, climbing at this level was not difficult for Gretel at all. Although his back was sore due to lack of exercise, he still had the strength to climb up after a night's rest. However, the climb the next day
By noon, I was out of breath, my heart was beating like thunder, and I could no longer lift my legs.
"Damn it, hell...is this a high reaction...Bernard, let me take a break, let me take a breath of oxygen..."
Among the huge rocks on the top of the mountain, Ofelia was lying in the hall of the dragon's lair, curiously looking at the light curtain in front of her. Gretel took out an arm-long iron can from the space bag, unscrewed the lid, and buried his face in front of the iron can.
He was breathing heavily inside the mask, and within a few moments, his red face calmed down.
"Interesting little guy...it seems like you have to work harder to bring out your potential..."
