Seeing the little magician using a bottle to collect the venom from the corpse monsters, Dardanelle and the other three members of the List family couldn't help but raise eyebrows. This little magician had collected a lot of such disgusting things like treasures.
The bottle was full and I carefully collected it...
Looking at the disgusting pile of rotten meat, everyone couldn't help but sigh: This magician is really not something ordinary people can be.
The seriously injured scimitar warrior and the guy who vomited blood will leave the forest on Duwei's sled. Duwei gave them the four snow dogs to pull the sled... Anyway, these are the things of the old magician, and Duwei is very fond of them.
Be generous and generous to others. Moreover, the road ahead will become increasingly difficult, and there will probably be no need for a sled.
But before the two wounded men left, Du Wei hesitated. After all, both of them were injured. If they encountered any wild beasts on the way back, they would have no ability to protect themselves.
Du Wei thought for a moment, collected the circle of dragon feces powder that the old magician had scattered on the ground last night, and wrapped two packages in parchment paper. The rest, regardless of the strange looks in the two wounded men's eyes, was all
It spilled on their clothes.
"This way, you don't have to worry about the monsters attacking you on the way back." Du Wei's tone was very relaxed: "You have injuries on your body and the smell of blood. I'm worried that you will attract the monsters."
"What is this?" Dardaniel looked at the green powder. His expression was the same as Duwei's when he asked the old magician last night.
"This..." Du Wei said with a mischievous smile, "These are excrement, dragon excrement."
"Oh..." The three people were relieved immediately. Apart from some expressions of surprise on their faces, they did not show any signs of discomfort, let alone any expressions of disgust or disgust.
The scimitar warrior even smiled happily and said: "What a good idea! Haha, in the past in the northwest, we would also sprinkle lion urine on the tent in the wild to prevent wild wolves on the grassland. Haha...
However, dragon excrement, a magician is indeed a magician! Even a magician can get such a precious thing...haha."
This guy looked as if he didn't have enough dragon dung on him and wished Du Wei could throw a few more on him.
After sending the two wounded people away, Du Wei packed up the remaining things. The old magician left inexplicably. There were many magic potions and even a small piece of magic crystal in the baggage left behind. Du Wei studied it and found out.
Judging that this was probably a piece of material used to set up a magic circle, Du Wei accepted it all and put it all away.
Dardaniel took Duwei back to their previous camp. After that camp was attacked by the Rotting Corpse Monster, only a mess was left.
Dardanelle picked up two quivers and carried them on his back, and picked up two knives from the bodies of his two dead companions. Then Dardaniel dug a hole and buried his companions.
There were eight people in total when they came out, but now there are only three left.
There is also a sled here, but all the snow dogs pulling the sled ran away in the attack last night. There was also a dog that was bitten off by a carrion in the attack last night. After midnight,
, the remaining bodies have been frozen into ice.
The tent was swaying here and there, and Duwei didn't shy away from it. He and Dardaniel rummaged through some useful things, and finally Duwei focused his attention on the sled.
The sled is broken, probably because the carrion stepped on the lever and broke it last night.
In Dardaniel's confused eyes, Duwei pulled out his knife, pried off a few wooden boards from the seat plate of the sled, and then tied two rectangular wooden boards to himself with the rope cut from the tent.
soles of boots.
"What is this for?" Dardaniel asked doubtfully.
"It's for walking in the snow. You can try it, it's very effective." Du Wei smiled.
Dardanelle had great respect for this little magician who did unexpected things. Although he didn't understand it, he followed Duwei's example and tied wooden boards to the soles of his boots.
And then, while walking, he immediately began to admire this little magician.
The deeper you go into the forest, the thicker the snow becomes! Often when you step on it, the snow can even reach your knees! And with the wooden boards under your feet, the wide wooden boards have a large stress-bearing area, so when people walk,
Your feet won't sink deeply into the snow.
Moreover, Duwei even taught Dardaniel to use the wooden board under his feet to glide in the snow!
Skiing was one of Du Wei's favorite sports in his previous life.
With this simple and crude "ski", it was much easier for the two of them to move forward.
"By the way, Dardaniel, a total of five of you ran away last night. I saw the first guy ran away by himself... Is that person also a member of your Liszt family?" Du Wei was very worried while walking on the road.
I asked casually.
"Huh, the Liszt family doesn't have that kind of trash who is afraid of death." Dardaniel said with disdain: "That's a fur trader from a town in the south of the forest. We gave him a sum of money and asked him to act as our guide.
But that idiot took us around the woods for three days and couldn't even find a damn thing. When we go back this time, I will definitely skin him off!"
After a pause, Dardaniel whispered: "We are different from other adventurers. We are members of the Lister family and cannot forcefully break through the border patrol guards. We cannot cause trouble for the Lister family. So, too
Relying on that guy's relationship, we bribed the officers of the patrol team to let us into the forest. But now it seems that that guy probably kept the money we spent to bribe the officers."
The two walked from sunrise to noon. They walked in the snow for a whole morning. Although they had skis made by Duwei, they still had to walk hard on the snow under the test of cold wind and icy climate... all of this
, it is a severe test for both people’s physical strength and perseverance!
Dardaniel is a warrior, and his body is naturally much stronger than Duwei's. However, he was injured last night. Although the wound healed under the influence of magic potion, the blood lost cannot be replaced by magic, and the body will inevitably
It's a little weaker.
Du Wei is also very tired. Although his body has improved a lot after the old magician's strange set of strengthening exercises recently, but after all, how strong can a thirteen-year-old boy's body be? If he didn't have this ski,
Du Wei couldn't hold on any longer.
It would be great if I could learn the flying technique of the wind system. Du Wei muttered secretly, but looking at the biting cold wind here, Du Wei sighed...
Even if he knew how to fly, with his own magical strength, if he could fly in such a cold wind, he probably wouldn't be able to fly very far before his magic power would be exhausted.
The two of them were still heading north, deep into the forest. Dardaniel obviously knew more about wild survival than Du Wei. During the conversation, Du Wei learned that Dardaniel had been a servant when he was young.
He is a soldier, but he has never been to the Frozen Forest. When he was young, he once served as a bodyguard for fur smuggling merchants on the northwest grasslands.
He was used to living in the open air.
Because the Marquise Liszt does not have a hereditary title, this kind of noble does not have her own territory or private army. It is even less possible for her to recruit a large number of private warriors and armed forces like other nobles.
Therefore, the people sent to the woods this time were all the Marquise's bodyguards. Dardanelle was the deputy captain, and the captain had already died in last night's attack, trying to cover the escape of his companions.
"We didn't bring too many people, because in such a dangerous place, those with ordinary skills will only die if they come too many, and they will become a burden." Dardaniel's nose turned red from the cold, and he
He stopped and rested for a while. In fact, he was not tired, but he was just considerate of the young magician.
During the communication on the road, Du Wei felt that Dardaniel was a very nice person, very enthusiastic, and respected him very much. After coming to this world, Du Wei, who had no friends, soon developed a crush on this enthusiastic warrior.
Got quite a favorable impression.
Dardanelle grabbed a handful of snow and stuffed it into his mouth. After the heat in his mouth melted the snow into water, he swallowed it bit by bit.
After quenching his thirst, Dardaniel glanced at the sun above his head: "Your Majesty the Magician..."
"Call my name." Du Wei said with a smile: "No need to use honorifics, Dardaniel, there are only two of us here, and we are companions now. Besides, I am not very old either."
"Okay, Harry." Dardanelle smiled cheerfully: "I think it's already past noon. In places like this in the far north, it gets dark very early. We'd better hurry up and move forward before dawn.
Find a place to camp before it gets dark. By the way...do you still have your dragon excrement?"
"There are many more." Du Wei smiled.
"That's good." A trace of sadness flashed in Dardaniel's eyes, and he whispered: "Unfortunately, if I had met you one day earlier and you had dragon excrement in your hand, we would not have been attacked by monsters in the middle of the night.
The captain won’t die either.”
"Dead people cannot be resurrected. My dear Dardaniel." Du Wei comforted: "It is passing away, and the living people must inherit their legacy. As long as we can successfully find the golden-eyed python, then the dead will
The sacrifice will not be in vain."
Dardaniel perked up and said seriously: "You're right! Harry, what you said really makes sense...Magicians are all knowledgeable people, right? Tell me about you, you are so young and you have become
It's really admirable to be a magician! Tell me about your situation, you must be from a good background, right? Only wealthy people can have the opportunity to contact magicians and learn magic."
Du Wei couldn't help but be speechless.
He began to regret hiding his identity from this cheerful man. Facing this guy's smile, Du Wei felt a little embarrassed and muttered a few vague words, avoiding the topic about himself.
•;
In the evening, the sun was almost setting, and the two finally found a slightly lower place where they could camp out from the wind.
However, when the two of them walked around the forest, they found that this place had already been occupied!
"alert!!"
Suddenly there was a whistle in the forest, and immediately, two snow-white people jumped out of the tree. Du Wei took a closer look, and saw that both of them were wearing snow-white leather clothes, and then they also appeared from behind the forest.
There were a dozen or so armed men! Some of these men were wearing leather jackets, some were wearing leather armor, and they had different weapons in their hands. Some were holding swords, some were holding knives, and some were holding short axes.
The few people behind were holding bows and arrows, pointing their arrows at Duwei and Dardaniel.
Seeing that it was two humans, not monsters, these vigilant guys were relieved.
"Okay, there are two of us. It seems that we have met our companions." A leader-looking man came over and said with a smile: "Oh, it's rare to see two people dare to walk so far into the frozen forest.
!”
Dardaniel put his hand on the handle of the knife and looked at these people warily. Duwei, with a smile on his face, said loudly: "Who is the leader here?"
"That's me." This leader-like person looked at Du Wei with a hint of contempt on his face: "Oh, it's a child... Ah, I see, you are looking for a place to camp, right? I'm sorry,
We have occupied this place first. If you don't mind, we can allow you to camp in the woods next to our camp. Just be careful and don't break into our warning circle."
"No, no, no..." Du Wei shook his head repeatedly: "When we camp in the forest, we don't want to be the dinner of the monsters! Let us in, can we join your camp? There are only two of us, so we won't take up a lot of space.
...and you are a mercenary group here to hunt monsters, right? Maybe we can help each other."
These people looked at each other, and suddenly they laughed up to the sky at the same time. The leader-looking man looked at Du Wei with even more disdain: "Kid, how can you help us? Could it be that you got up in the middle of the night to pour urine for us?
Pot? Haha... let's go! For the sake of you all coming to the frozen forest for adventure, I won't embarrass you. As long as you don't cause trouble yourself."
Du Wei instead took a step forward: "No, I insist on my request."
The leader's face darkened a little: "Oh, do you want to cause trouble? Boy..."
Dardaniel gently pulled Du Wei and whispered: "I know the badges of these people. They are from the 'Snow Wolf Mercenary Group'. There are many of them, so we'd better not get into trouble." Dardaniel
Neil looked at the badge on the leader's chest and whispered: "Let's change places."
Dardaniel had the experience of an adventurous life when he was young. He was quite familiar with some famous mercenary groups on the mainland, and he also knew that these guys were not easy to mess with... they were all desperadoes!
Even in adventurous activities, there will be fights between each other, and the behavior of gangsters and gangsters is commonplace!
Fortunately, Du Wei and Dardaniel didn't carry anything with them. Seeing the two walking lightly, these guys didn't take it to heart.
If Du Wei and Dardaniel bring a lot of gains... I'm afraid these guys will see the benefits and become evil!
It is not a smart move to conflict with this guy. Although this little magician is very capable, the dozen or so people in front of him are obviously just peripheral security personnel. There are more than a dozen people on guard, and there are at least a hundred people in their camp.
.
With two people on your side, it's better not to cause trouble.
"Hey, Dardaniel, listen to me." Du Wei was afraid that the world would not be in chaos, and he was sure that the old magician was still around him somewhere...
Du Wei deliberately made a proud expression and looked at the guy in front of him. This guy was wearing a leather armor and the weapon in his hand looked quite extraordinary, but he should be a minor character: "Oh, you are
From the Snow Wolf Mercenary Group, right? As for you, you should be just a small captain, can you represent the will of your mercenary group?"
Du Wei was right. This guy was just a team leader responsible for guarding the surrounding area. He frowned and said, "Kid, what do you want to do? If you want to suffer a little, I don't mind doing some exercise."
As he spoke, he held up the long sword in his hand and strode towards Du Wei with a strange smile on his face.
However, he only took a few steps and immediately froze!
Du Wei was still standing there, still with a smile on his face, but he had raised his right hand, palm facing up, gently dragging a burning fireball in his hand!
The people in the mercenary group are all knowledgeable people who have traveled far and wide! Seeing the smile on this kid's face, a fireball appeared in the palm of his hand!
"Is this how the Snow Wolf Mercenary Group treats a magician?" Du Wei smiled with disdain: "Okay, then I will remember it."
After Du Wei finished speaking, he pulled Dardaniel: "Let's go, my friend. It seems that these people are so powerful that they don't need magicians. In this damn place, they can't even help each other at least."
I don’t even understand the principles.”
Magician! This boy is a magician!
Everyone, including the captain, was stunned. They looked at Du Wei no longer with disdain, but with a hint of awe!
"Get out of here! You bunch of idiots!" A shout came from the forest, and then a tall man strode out.
This man was wearing a rhinoceros leather armor, but in such an icy and snowy place, he was shirtless, showing off his muscular muscles. He also had a snow-white cloak behind him and a yellow beard, which made him look very powerful.
There was no weapon in his hand, but when he walked out, those who were on guard all backed away: "Captain!"
The captain immediately took a few steps forward, but the group only glared at him: "You've embarrassed us, my brother, stay away."
After saying that, the leader ignored his subordinates and walked up to Du Wei. With a smile on his face, he said loudly: "Your Excellency, Magician, my subordinates are a little rude! I apologize for their unreasonableness!"
Du Wei smiled: "Who are you?"
"This is the leader of our Snow Wolf Mercenary Group, Captain Beinrich!" A mercenary next to him answered loudly, his voice loud and full of pride.
A glimmer of light flashed in Dardaniel's eyes, and he whispered: "This guy has a nickname, called 'Son of the Storm'. He is an outstanding figure in the mercenary circle in the northern part of the mainland, and is known as one of the three outstanding mercenaries in the north. I
I’ve heard his name.”
Beinrich laughed and said: "Son of the Storm, it's just a nickname given by others. Okay, I've introduced myself. Mr. Magician, can I tell you your name?"
"Harry Potter." Du Wei smiled and replied, "I'm not wearing a mage robe or a badge, but this is the custom in this hellish place. I believe you can understand." Looking into the captain's eyes, Du Wei
Wei said slowly: "My companions and I have no ill intentions. We have our own things to do in the frozen forest. I believe that in such a ghost place, if your mercenary group can have a magician join... even if
It’s just a few days, which is beneficial to both parties, isn’t it?”
"The Snow Wolf Mercenary Group absolutely welcomes the arrival of magicians at any time!" Beinrich laughed loudly: "I am worried. Every time I come to this expensive place, those nasty monsters are very troublesome. If I could have
With the help of a magician, business will be much easier!"
With that said, Beinrich glanced at Du Wei, waiting for Du Wei's answer.
"I am happy to provide some help." Duwei's answer made Beinrich very happy: "Mr. Leader, you have also seen that my companion and I are only two people. In this ghost place, we can have more companions.
That’s always a good thing, isn’t it?”
"Please, Your Majesty the Magician, our camp is right in front, and there are two bottles of good wine in my tent!" Beinrich laughed and enthusiastically led the way.
Dardaniel frowned, but Duwei pulled him back and whispered: "Dardaniel, stop talking! This is the first time for you and me to come to the Frozen Forest! This place is neither of us."
Familiar! But these guys are all veterans who come here often! They are familiar with the terrain and environment here! It is much better than the two of us blindly searching in circles in the vast forest!"
