As the largest continent in the known world, the continent of Eminol is not only vast in size, but also the most complex in terms of terrain.
There are the Messis Mountains and the snowfields under the mountains in the north, the Gobi Desert and the vast sand sea in the east, the hilly area in the middle, and the Flower Plains in the hinterland, the magic forest and several wide rivers. The confluence of the rivers forms several areas.
A big swamp.
The southern side of the Eminol continent is covered with tropical rainforest and savanna.
Further south, there is the world-famous Holy Snow Mountain. It is an unimaginable natural landscape to have such a snow-covered mountain in the tropics all year round. The highest peak of the Holy Snow Mountain is 7,107 meters above sea level, with an average altitude of 4,000 meters.
Above 1,000 meters above sea level, it is still a typical broad-leaved rain forest; above 1,000 meters and below 2,000 meters, it is a typical broad-leaved temperate forest; above 2,000 meters and below 3,500 meters above sea level, a large number of tall spruce trees grow.
Entering the clouds. Above 3,500 meters, after entering the snow line, it is difficult to see any animals and plants.
The Holy Snow Mountain is a ring-shaped mountain range that stretches for more than 2,000 miles, with a basin at an altitude of 2,000 meters in the middle. The mountains in the east, north, and north directions are surrounded by three countries: the Amy Empire, the Xius Empire, and the Haiha Mercenary Empire.
.Under the steep cliff on the south side is the sea.

Chapter 10 Challenge the Snow Line
Early the next morning, all the fantasy beast knight trialists gathered at the south gate of Scambrai City. Everyone received their own fantasy beast fantasy world and was assigned a comfortable carriage to carry the fantasy beast over long distances.
.According to past practice, these fantasy beast knights are the hope of the future empire, so the Imperial General Gyeonggi specially dispatched two brigades of knights to escort this trial.
From the imperial capital Scambrai to the Holy Snow Mountain, 80% of the journey is the Sanggan River Continental Highway. Compared with the Longya Mountain Highway on the frozen continent, the continental highway in the Eminol Empire is flatter and wider. The carriage is on it
The journey was very fast. In just 10 days, we arrived at the foot of the Holy Snow Mountain, 1,500 miles away, and saw the snow-capped mountains floating in the clouds from a distance.
Almost all the Eudemons Knight Trialists are accompanied by relatives and friends, especially the aristocratic children. The Lin family and the Chi family cannot avoid this bad habit. After all, caring leads to chaos. Both Count Lin and his wife came to see their daughter off in person, as well as their daughter's friends.
Sha Ruo: In addition to the fact that the Chi family has a high Duke title, as the president of the army, it would be too embarrassing for the place to come in person. Chi Hanfeng, Lei Ge, Amy, Daqingshan, Horns, etc. all came.
When we were still 50 miles away from the Holy Snow Mountain, a long wooden and stone fence over 3 meters high was built on the ground, spreading infinitely to both sides. Inside the fence, there were Imperial knights patrolling in groups, and they saw the escort coming.
In the knight brigade, a fantasy beast knight riding an earth-moving dragon came forward. He carefully looked at the military talisman signed by the Red Stone Emperor and signaled the sergeant behind to open the entrance to the fence.
The knight brigade was automatically divided into 31 small units, leading the 31 knights to move in different directions. Of course, Lin Yushang, Sha Ruo, and Chi Aotian also went in different directions. From this point on, the families of all the knights were isolated.
Outside the fence, even many people who are respected as counts and generals cannot enter.
Watching the retreating figures of Lin Yushang, Sha Ruo, and Chi Aotian, they became smaller and smaller, and finally disappeared from sight. Chi Hanfeng and others returned to the specially set up tent. As soon as they sat down, Count Lin and his wife came
Visit. Taking this opportunity, Amy, Daqingshan, and Horns, several fledgling children, raised a series of questions about the Phantom Beast Knight Trial.
Chi Hanfeng himself is a fantasy beast knight, and Count Lin happens to be a fantasy beast knight as well, so of course he is very familiar with these issues.
The so-called fantasy beast trial is a process that allows the fantasy beast to trust the knight 100%, and finally in the blood pool of the fantasy beast paradise, the fantasy beast is reborn and gains higher abilities.
So how to make the fantasy beast recognize its master?
There are many kinds of phantom beasts. Some phantom beasts have violent personalities and like to attack humans. It is almost very difficult to get the approval of these phantom beasts. Some phantom beasts can easily identify with humans, but this is not a good thing.
It is easy to identify with one human being, and it is bound to be easy to identify with other human beings.
After repeated tests, early zoothologists finally discovered that all beasts, after birth, tend to regard the first moving object they see as their mother, and follow her from then on, and this will not change until death.
In this way, the fantasy world of fantasy beasts was born. All candidate fantasy beasts were immediately put into the fantasy world after they were born, and they were given the feeling of sleeping, as if they were still in the mother's body. Even though
It is the female animal that feeds milk, and the milk is introduced into the fantasy world through special equipment.
Through short-term observation, once it is determined that the ability of this little phantom beast is indeed extraordinary, it will be determined that it can participate in the phantom beast trial.
After these fantasy worlds were brought to the Holy Snow Mountain by the knights, each knight was assigned a passage where no second human would appear. The so-called passage was added to the place where there seemed to be a road in the Holy Snow Mountain, but in fact there was no road.
The directional road sign guides the fantasy beast knight to lead the fantasy beast to the "path" to the fantasy beast sacred garden.
Under the passage, after the knight confirmed that everyone had left, he opened the fantasy world and released the fantasy beast, so that the fantasy beast would think that the person in front of him was his mother. Then the fantasy beast knight led the little fantasy beast to challenge the phantom beast at an average altitude of 4,000 meters.
In the next 10 days or so in the Holy Snow Mountain, we ate and slept together and established trust that cannot be broken.
The Holy Snow Mountain stretches for 2,000 miles, of which the Amy Empire alone occupies 1,200 miles of the mountainous area, and the other two empires share less than 1,000 miles with the Holy Snow Mountain.
In the past few hundred years, the empire has sent people to survey new passages every year. To qualify as a new passage, it must meet the following two conditions:
1. According to the straight-line distance of the nearest passage, the straight-line distance cannot be less than 15 miles, because some eagle-like phantom beasts can directly see 15 miles away. However, if it is confirmed that there are always mountains blocking the road, it can be appropriately reduced to 10
inside.
2. The path should not be too difficult, because some phantom beasts are from the tropics and cannot adapt to the cold. The phantom beast knights not only go to the customer service to overcome the obstacles caused by ice and snow, but also pay attention to keeping the phantom beasts warm and holding the phantom beasts.
Moving forward is very difficult, so the road should not be too difficult.
At present, the empire has discovered a total of 42 fantasy beast passages. Among them, the empire owns 31, 6 are allocated to the Hami people, 4 are allocated to the Holy Desert Empire, and 1 is in reserve. The other two are with
The countries bordering the Holy Snow Mountain have also allocated some phantom beast passages to friendly countries that provide phantom beasts.
"Then what should I do if I meet someone?" Amy asked worriedly.
Chi Hanfeng touched his nose: This kind of thing will not happen. Every step of the Phantom Beast Knight is guided, and the three countries around the Holy Snow Mountain jointly built protective fences and sent heavy troops to guard them.
No one is allowed to enter. Once someone is found to have broken into the Holy Snow Mountain, they can be killed first and then reported.
The next day, Lin Yushang had accompanied the imperial knights to a mountainous area 2,000 meters above sea level. The road had disappeared here. After a guerrilla showed her the road signs, he saluted a military salute and led the soldiers away quickly.
According to the instructions for the trial of the phantom beast provided by the empire, Lin Yushang must wait for an hour after the soldiers leaving before opening the illusion world, otherwise her phantom beast may see other people. Use this time to use this time to follow the instructions for the trial of the phantom beast.
Using the information provided in the article, Lin Yushang found the place where supplies were replenished for the first day, and took out the food that had been refrigerated with freezing magic.
After confirming that one hour and ten minutes had passed, Lin Yushang successfully opened the illusion world according to the instructions taught in the trial instructions. A small unicorn crawled out of it. It was about 1.2 meters tall. Under the sun,
The snow-white hair reflected the colorful light. It looked at Lin Yushang hesitantly, blinked its big brown eyes, and slowly pushed Lin Yushang's body with its small horn, which was only a foot long.
Ha, what an interesting little guy, Lin Yushang laughed out loud, holding the unicorn's face with one hand, and touching its slender horn with the other hand. It was still soft. She couldn't help but put her face against it.
on the unicorn's face.
The girl's sweet smile completely dispelled the unicorn's doubts. It seemed very happy, licking Lin Yushang's face with its pink tongue, and kept rubbing its body on Lin Yushang's legs.
After being intimate with the unicorn for a while, Lin Yushang took out some soaked beans and fed the little one to eat, then invited it to start the difficult journey to the Holy Snow Mountain.
Perhaps due to the relatively high altitude, the density of the forest is not very high, and the sunlight shines through the treetops in the forest. Lin Yushang was tickling the little guy with his hands while chatting with it.
"Hey, pretty little Jiaojiao, what's your name?"
"Huh-te-" The unicorn snorted.
"Ha, your name is Hunter?" Lin Yushang tilted her head and thought for a moment, "That name doesn't sound good. How about I give you a name?"
"Huh-te-"
"Your name is...Bai Xue, what do you think?"
"Huh-te-"
"Okay, you agreed, don't go back on it, just call me Bai Xue. Haha -"
At the same moment, 200 miles away, Sha Ruo also opened the illusion world in front of him. Why - after waiting for two minutes, the little Phoenix still didn't come out? It couldn't be that he was suffocating, Sha Ruo was anxious.
He reached out his hand to the mouth of the fantasy world, wanting to lift it up and take a look.
Suddenly, a small bird's beak poked out, and the vermilion beak carefully pecked Sha Ruo's pink palm. For a moment, Sha Ruo felt as if his palm was electrocuted. Oh, what kind of thing is this?
It really feels like a child scratching an itch in the palm of your hand.
The bird's beak pecked twice more and found that there was no danger outside. The whole bird's head poked out, and the crown-shaped feather crest on the bird's head popped out from the small exit of the illusion world. The feather crest sparkled in the sun, and then
The whole body and the long and extremely beautiful tail feathers also came out. It tilted its head and looked at Sha Ruo, and slowly flapped its wings.
This beautiful phoenix is quite big, with its wings spread out, and is about 1.1 meters long. From the yellow flesh of a young bird on its beak, you can tell that this is a phoenix that has just been born.
For fear of scaring it, Sha Ruo smiled and slowly stretched out his hand, stroking its gorgeous silk-like feathers from the Phoenix's head downwards. With the other hand, he picked up the prepared food and slowly handed it to Phoenix's head.
In front of his head, Phoenix looked at it doubtfully, pecked it tentatively, and slowly ate it, finding that it tasted really good. He flapped his wings and flew to Sha Ruo's shoulder, and immediately started eating.
Sha Ruo is a very quiet girl, but it feels really good to see the bird's head peeking out from her shoulder, and to feel the phoenix constantly grasping her shoulder to balance its body while eating.
Ahead, there is a very obvious sign every 10 meters. Under the sign every 500 meters, it is clearly written: This is the day and time of the road, and how far it is to the next supply point.
Sharuo here is mainly an area of alpine grasslands. The flat grass is full of flowers of various colors. Sharuo sometimes runs a few steps when he is happy. Driven by the wind, the phoenix spreads its wings and glides in the air for a certain distance before landing.
on the ground.
Occasionally, you can see towering straight spruce trees in front of you. These trees are very thick and even two or three people may not be able to carry them over.
When traveling on a plateau, if you walk too fast, it is easy to feel hypoxia and dizziness. Sha Ruo gradually had these reactions. According to the instructions, she slowed down her pace. At about 4:00 in the afternoon, Sha Ruo
Arriving at the first campsite on time, Sharuo found tents, food and other items bound by magic behind the clearly marked big rocks.
The tent was set up easily. Then, Sha Ruo dug a hole outside the tent and set up a bonfire. The sky slowly turned dark. When the flames started to rise, it was already dark. Sha Ruo leaned on the stone and stroked his hand.
Mocking the little phoenix lying on her body, she looked at the bright starry sky in the distance through the flames and sparks flying in front of her eyes. On the plateau, the stars she saw were so clear that she could almost see them clearly.
It was obvious that some beautiful little stars were twinkling and twinkling.
The barbecue on the bonfire made a sizzling sound, and the meat oil kept dripping down. The scenery in front of him immediately reminded Sharuo of the same bonfire in the Hami Empire not long ago, and the honest boy beside the bonfire.
, he always does everything by himself, but in the end, he keeps the best meat for himself.
The girl smiled, moved her lips slightly, showed a half-smile expression, and slowly touched her feet with her hands.
