Starfall 833, November 1, winter, heavy snow. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Moldavia, Nissière, Wintercastle Academy.

The night is dark.

A squad dressed in the uniforms of the academy walked through the night, silent, not even lighting torches or even using lighting magic, but just walking in the darkness without making a sound.

Twelve kilometers from the Nissière Mountains, the Ice Forest, where the extraordinary magic of the snow condenses the snow into ice, and the wind howls and flutters with sharp ice crystals, so that only the magic beasts that can control the magic of frost can survive here.

But it was not yet the depths of winter, and there was no snow around the Nissières Mountains, and there was nothing else to hinder the student team except for the faint cold wind.

Wintercastle Academy has been established for about a year, and most of the students in it also have the ability to be a beginner spellcaster, and the excellent ones have completed the Black Iron Revelation and become one of the professionals.

After all, this is the group of children with the best elemental affinity in the entire Northland, their talents are already excellent, and with systematic cultivation and cultivation without sparing money, this speed of progress is deserved.

But this team of four, but collectively they are all Black Iron Rank, they are undoubtedly the best in the academy, and now they are exploring the forest in the middle of the night, as if they are looking for something.

The cold wind swept and brought up a piece of cold sand, and in the middle of the team, a male voice suddenly complained, "Is that ice ghost here?" We've searched most of the forest, and the detection magic still hasn't responded. ”

"Nick, be quiet!"

A female voice that was lowered scolded with a hint of annoyance: "This is the Ice Lan Forest, and there are many other demonic beasts besides the Ice Ghost!" Don't make a fuss! ”

After being reprimanded, the man's voice also became quieter, but he was still unconvinced and asked in a low voice: "Karin, you said that this detection magic scroll you bought can directly find the target, but so far it has not helped us except to take us to run around the penguins!" ”

"It's clearly shown that it's around here, its nest must be in the ......"

Just as the two of them were walking and arguing with each other in a low voice, behind them, a pair of brothers and sisters with white and blonde hair looked at each other helplessly, and then shrugged their shoulders in tacit understanding.

Ivan and Amira, two siblings who aspire to become dragon slayers, are now in the Ice Forest, completing the mission issued by the Academy.

Unlike most aristocratic mage colleges, Wintercastle Academy emphasizes actual combat, practical operation and practical application, and the theoretical courses will not be covered until the fourth year of advanced courses, and the early education is biased towards the perception and control of magical power, and the next step of higher education will be carried out after the foundation is solid.

Because of this, after most of the academy students had basic combat effectiveness, the academy began to assign tasks for these young people to complete.

Or a brute bear, or a four-horned deer, or a large frost butterfly...... Or the Ice Wraith, which Ivan and the others are tracking down right now.

After these black iron monsters have been identified by the academy's instructors, they will be marked as the students' task tasks, and the students will form a four-person team to hunt these monsters, so as to fully exercise their practical combat skills such as searching, tracking, physical strength, coordination, and magic use.

Since Ivan and Amira's strength was considered first-class among all the students, their subject was naturally the most difficult batch, and after careful selection, they chose the Ice Ghost as the target from a large number of elite black iron monsters, and then, these two took their friends and went to the Ice Lan Forest.

"The target has appeared!" Suddenly, Ivan and Amira whispered in unison.

Although it seemed that they were still arguing, in fact, the four of them were very alert, and when the detection magic reacted, the four of them instantly set up an array and then moved in the direction of the target.

Ivan and Nick stood in the front row, one armed with a longsword and the other with a large folding shield, while behind them, Amira and Karin were on guard with a longbow and a crossbow, respectively.

Nick is a strong young man with a dwarf half-blood, although he is only 1.45 meters tall, his muscles are more developed than adults, and if it weren't for the faint flash of enhanced magic in his hand, no one would think that he is a mage apprentice.

Karin, the red-haired girl, was taking out a bottle of holy water from her bosom, applying it to the arrowhead and giving Amira a few bottles.

Before the spell-casting ability is formed, most of the mages are armed with longbows and crossbows to support in the rear, and some mages with melee abilities also need to go to the front line to fight.

However, this does not mean that they do not use magic, I saw that Amira and Karin were both chanting something in a low voice, and the surrounding elements were attracted and blessed on the two people in front of them and the bow and crossbow in their hands, the unique resonance skills of human mages, allowing the two to cast spells on multiple targets at the same time.

And in the next moment, in the darkness of the forest in the distance, a burst of ice-blue glow suddenly lit up, and a humanoid luminous figure floating in the air, surrounded by layers of ice armor, appeared in front of everyone.

Resentful eyes swept over the four living people in front of him, and the revenant soul of the adventurer who died in the bitter cold let out a silent soul scream, and the light blue frost magic surged, and ice spikes began to appear in mid-air.

"Nick, you take the shield and step forward to cover."

"Amira and Karin, you use the Holy Water Arrow to support in the rear, and be careful of the other demonic beasts that are attracted after hearing the sound!"

Ivan, as the leader of this team, simply gave a series of orders, and then, he himself hurried forward, followed Nick, and began to charge forward with ice spikes.

The night was dark, and the wind was howling louder.

After an hour of hard fighting, the team finally gained a rare rest time after purifying the Ice Ghost and killing the eight armored deer that heard the sound.

Although they are deer, they have sharp fangs and carapaces comparable to medium-sized armor, they are omnivores, they eat grass when they are alone, and they eat meat when they are in groups, but now it is winter, there is not so much grass for them to eat, so they naturally eat meat.

The four young magicians were naturally the best food for them, but these monsters underestimated each other's combat power and were killed one by one.

Panting heavily, Ivan was about to step forward to mend a deer with a wounded hind leg and temporarily incapacitated.

This northland boy with a good physique who does not look like a mage has almost no strength after killing the four armored deer, and after using low-level magic such as spider web technique and flame hand many times, Ivan's magic power is also empty, if it is not for the long sword in his hand is sharp enough, he may not be able to make up for this demonic beast.

The armored deer let out a terrible wail when it saw the sword close to its neck, and Nick, who was resting against the tree, suddenly flashed his eyes, and the half-breed dwarf said in a deep voice: "Wait, Ivan, it seems to be saying something!" ”

Hearing this, the young man had no choice but to withdraw his sword, but he was not in a hurry, but just reminded him: "The smell of blood will attract other beasts, we have to leave quickly after getting the certificate." ”

"Do you know the language of beasts?" On the side, Amira, who was retrieving the arrows with Karin, by the way, searched the Ice Wraith Lair, looking for the credentials left by the mentor, turned around curiously and asked, "I didn't know you had this ability." ”

Seeing Amira, a rare beauty in the academy, asking himself a question, Nick suddenly came to his senses, he patted his chest proudly, and then said loudly: "Of course! I was able to talk to wild *** when I was a kid, leave it to me! ”

"It's just simple-minded, like a beast." Karin mocked in a low voice, then raised her voice and scolded, "Don't be so loud, it will attract monsters!" ”

Nick didn't care about that, he stepped forward and spoke in a low voice with the wounded carapace.

Half a minute later, he jerked to his feet and let out a shout that made the leaves tremble: "What, is what you said true?!" ”

The red-haired girl who was defenseless and startled was angry on the spot, this stone-like half-dwarf is good at anything, but the voice is always so loud, no matter what she says, and just when she was about to quarrel with Nick, Ivan and Camilla, brother and sister, hurriedly stepped forward to appease.

"It's okay, Karin, his voice is so loud that the monsters will be scared too."

"Yes, Sister Karin, if it doesn't work, we'll just leave Nick behind, it's okay."

And Nick didn't care about what his companion was saying about him at this time, he just gasped and said, "Gold? So much gold in the whole house?! ”

"Gold?!" X3

The three people in the back row let out a chorus of surprise.

Without any nonsense, Karin immediately ran up to the injured deer with bright and innocent eyes, completely different from ordinary armored deer, she decisively aimed the crossbow at the opponent's head, and then said viciously to Nick: "Quick, let it tell everything, or I will shoot it through the head with an arrow!" ”

Although Ivan and Amira were not so excited, after the two of them glanced at each other, they both stepped forward slowly with fierce eyes, and began to condense magic power in their hands.

The four people surrounded the armored deer, and immediately frightened it into weakness, and Nick did not hesitate to continue to ask, after a while, the armored deer stopped talking, and Nick also stood up and excitedly said to the other three companions: "Hahahaha!" This armored deer knows where gold is! ”

"Calm down, Nick." Ivan, as the captain, has always been very calm, he squinted his eyes, looked at the trembling armor deer and said, "Don't take what an animal says, don't take it too seriously...... Where is the gold? ”

"yes, it's just a carapace, can it tell the difference between gold and other minerals?" Amira nodded in response to her brother, a silvery white cold light fluttered in her right hand, and the cold magic overflowed, so frightened that the armored deer almost closed its breath: "Maybe it's a lie to save your life...... Where is the gold? ”

Karin, on the other hand, was much more direct than the two siblings, and she opened her mouth and asked directly, "Where is the gold?" ”

It's no wonder that they are so fanatical about gold, mainly because they can't stand it after being poor for a long time.

Although the tuition fee of Wintercastle Academy is low, the cost of basic textbooks and basic experiments is exempted, but the additional textbooks and extracurricular tutoring, and additional spell experiments at the higher level all require money, although Nick and Karin's families are not poor, they can't provide too much money, and Ivan and Amira's siblings are slightly better, but Old Man Edward can't give too many extra gold coins.

As the top batch of students in the academy, these four people have long been not satisfied with the superficial knowledge of basic textbooks, they urgently need to buy advanced textbooks and tutors' extracurricular tutoring, and they also need money to update their equipment to better complete the task of the subject, in fact, they chose to kill the Ice Ghost, because the Ice Ghost may condense the primary frost crystal, which can be sold for a few hundred gold coins, which is much better than the skin of any beast.

"In the Dragon's Lair."

Nick was concise.

The smiles faded from the faces of the other three.

"In the Dragon's Lair?"

Ivan muttered under his breath, his eyes strange.

"Dragon's Lair?"

Amira muttered softly, her eyes cold.

"Are you idiot Nick!"

It was Karin again, who scolded bluntly, and she squirted neatly: "Why don't you say it in your heart!" Shit! That's the dragon's nest, who doesn't know that the dragon's nest has gold, you dare to go! ”

"In that dragon's lair that the lord exterminated!"

Nick was not at all disillusioned by the suspicion, contempt and insults of his companions, his expression was firm, and his words were clear and powerful: "It's that ice dragon lair!" After the lord killed those ice dragons, he still hasn't sent anyone to collect the supplies, and there is a whole layer of gold under the ice! We just need to go over and dig them out! ”

The other three instantly felt reliable.

Ivan muttered, "Seamless plan. ”

And at the same time, the Far North Ice Sheet, near the Dragon's Lair.

A team of men in black walks through the wind and snow of the ice field.

Surrounded by a barrier against wind and snow, they quickly came to the ruins of the dragon's lair, and a man in black at the head said in a hoarse voice: "Right here, the hometown of those white dragons in the Northland, after Joshua Van Radcliffe wiped them out, he didn't send anyone to recover the resources, and those plague poisonous fogs may still be inside." ”

"Recycle these first." In the middle of the procession, a high-pitched woman's voice sounded, and she ordered unceremoniously: "Hurry up and dig, we don't have that long, the high priest is coming, we must disturb the situation in Moldova as soon as possible, so that the priest can explore the ruins." ”

"Yes!"

Many black-clothed people spoke in unison, and the next moment, they hurried to the ruins of the dragon's lair and began to excavate and explore.

Looking at this scene, the female man in black thought about the next action, and couldn't help but chuckle and said, "It's just a seamless plan." ”

The next day, Joshua was in the Lord's Mansion, sitting at the table for breakfast.

Today's breakfast consisted of roasted wild boar steak, two eggs, and a bowl of mashed potatoes, which was something that the warrior could solve in three seconds, and after eating, he felt very uncomfortable, not because he was hungry, but because someone was lying on his back.

The black dragon girl lay on Qiao Shuya's back and said in a deliberately lowered voice, "Master, that ...... I haven't been out in a long time......"

"Okay, okay, I see."

The warrior nodded helplessly: "You want to go out for a walk, right?" Okay, I'll take you out later...... Where are you going? ”

"The Arctic Ice Sheet!"

"Okay, you go and get ready first, I'll come later."

"The best host!" Hei suddenly cheered happily, and then ran out to prepare.

And Joshua sat in his seat and thought for a moment.

Although the warriors of the Extreme Intention level no longer need to eat, they only need to absorb the free energy in the air to survive, but the matter of eating is still very pleasant, and if it is a food like Warcraft meat, it can bring benefits to the body.

"While taking the black for a walk, let's catch some magical beasts along the way."

Joshua said to himself: "You can still move your hands and feet, just right, to see how the demonic beasts in the ice field are walking after losing the white dragon." ”

He nodded in satisfaction with his thoughts.

"Seamless planning."
