With muscles as hard as rocks and hair as sharp as steel needles, the snow monster was enough to take forty or fifty slashes and stabs as if nothing happened, but at this time, it was as if half of his neck had been gnawed off by an invisible monster, which was shocking. The blood of one of the most formidable predators on the snowy mountain had spilled on the frozen soil, but it had not yet dried up, and the corpse was slightly warm. It can be seen that it won't be dead for long. The broken flesh around the huge wound showed signs of carbonization, emitting a burnt smell and an unpleasant smell of sulfur.

"You mean, this is a demon killer?" Faos asked. A look of suspicion flashed in his eyes, but it was well hidden.

"Most of the demon's weapons are made of ebonstone, a strange substance between metal and rock that is very rare in the main plane, and most of them are from the abyss. They have a strong affinity for magic in their own right, especially the fire element. Any weapon made of ebonstone, with a third-rate alchemist, can turn it into an alchemical weapon with fire magic. Lu Xi pointed with the hilt of his sword and pointed to the tunnel.

"Look at the carbonization marks around this wound, it is clear that it has been burned by the magic of the flames. In addition, there are irregular tears around the main creator's mouth, which should have been torn by a zigzag blade. This is the style of a typical demonic weapon. The main reason, of course, was that I could smell the sulfur smell of rotting eggs half a street away. How? Don't you Virgians have any experience fighting demons? ”

"If you're referring to the Sacred Texts, covered in brimstone and flames, and a burning abyss monster everywhere they go, you haven't encountered it." Valetan played with the spear in his hand. stretched lazily and said coldly in a tone that lacked the line.

"Since those guys are on fire all over. Maybe you're very afraid of the cold. Of course, I won't come to the north anymore. Colonde grinned. As a brother who has been trained to be full of muscles in his head, his way of thinking is naturally so direct.

“…… It's a bit of an exaggeration to say that it's full of fire. Say they're afraid of the cold...... This is also unfounded. "Artoria has seen real demons after all. He couldn't help but look at Valetan and Colonde with dissatisfied eyes, and corrected everyone seriously. She then added: "However, in the north, the enemies we face are mainly the orcs in the east, as well as the white ghosts, snow monsters and other magical beasts on the Atlas Mountain. True Abyssal Demons are indeed very rare in Veguia......"

"Could it be some resourceful monster that uses tools and weapons? Like white ghosts and the like. Faos raised another possibility.

He was still a little skeptical. After all, encountering the Abyssal Demon on Mount Atlas is like seeing a fat white bear walking on the beach in the south, which is really full of surrealist nihilism.

"It's impossible." Well-read. Sehira, who was very knowledgeable in theory, shook his head and retorted, "I don't believe that the white ghosts of the ice nature would endure the unsuitable use of fire-type ebonite weapons, which is not in line with their racial talent. ”

Lu Xi looked at everyone who was arguing, and said, "Anyway, it's a copy, didn't you expect it when you encountered the enemy?" ”

"The enemy is expected, but the type is unexpected......" Miss Fran, the archer, who had not spoken, smiled bitterly.

"If we want to back off now, it's too late." Lu Xi smiled and shrugged his shoulders.

Artoria glanced at Lu Xi and said in an unusually firm tone: "Lu Xi is right, the enemy is the enemy. The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth. At this point, no matter who the enemy is, I will never give up. ”

What a special Artoria style!

Lu Xi looked at Artoria's face that looked very cute when she was serious, and nodded with a smile: "As long as you make up your mind." I'll follow until the end. That's why I'm here.

Artoria couldn't help but be stunned, and the red glow involuntarily crept up on her face again.

Now is really not the time to appreciate cute things, Lu Xi hurriedly said: "But." Now, my building. Let's stop for a moment and see what the scout in front of you returns. It happened that everyone walked for a long time. I'm also a little tired. ”

Artoria didn't object, and gestured to everyone.

Although it is a rest, the trial is not an outing and camping, and it is impossible for everyone to really let go of their minds to bury their minds and cook and set up camp to sleep. In this kind of mountain, where large demonic beasts and foreign objects are inhabited everywhere, it is not known when a battle will take place. Therefore, everyone just sat on the ground, with their weapons beside them, and felt out dry food to satisfy their hunger.

The dry food that everyone brought was made of unleavened bread and dried meat, and it was so hard that it could almost be used as a secret weapon, and it could be sent to the mouth with a mouthful of snow casually. The taste of the food is naturally indisputable, in fact, their teeth are not broken and it is enough to make Lu Xi stunned.

Fran took out a set of field cooking tools from her bulging backpack and offered to cook a hot meal for everyone - she was closer to Artoria's nanny than a warrior - but was rejected by the latter, who did not give face. In such a place, life means attracting hatred, which is more immediate than MT's taunting skills.

Lu Xi looked at the corpse of the snow monster on the ground, thought for a few seconds, then turned over the opponent's body with force, pulled out the sword of the Dawn Knight, cut open the opponent's relatively soft abdomen, and took out the snow monster's gallbladder, which still exuded the smell of blood and heat, and was as big as a fist.

"What are you doing here?" Artoria couldn't help but ask.

"As you can see, cut out the belly and dig out the heart!" Lu Xi replied without raising his head.

"But...... Why? ”

"Any large demonic beast must have treasures on it. This is common sense in alchemy. Sai Xiliu explained on the side: "For example, the gallbladder of the snow monster is a very precious alchemy material, which can be used to make good body elì potions and cold-resistant potions. ”

"I'm just in case." Lu Xi wrapped the gallbladder in kraft paper and put it in his backpack, and then said, "In addition." The snow monster's blood itself has the effect of warding off the cold, while it is not cold. It's best to pick up a little bit that has been needed from time to time. “

"It's common sense, we'll do it...... But. Thank you for the reminder. Faos disguised his embarrassment with a somewhat stiff thank-you. Unimpressed, Colond and Valétan took out their parchment bags and tried to collect the snow monster's blood.

Poor snow monsters, who died miserably, and whose corpses were cheaper than vultures, a group of intruders who were not disciplined by the vultures.

At this time, Lu Xi felt a subtle magic fluctuation in the air behind him. He turned around and saw Angie's looming figure behind him behind the pine tree, which had been empty half a second before.

"Master, I'm back."

Artoria also seemed to be taken aback, and said seriously, "I don't know until now." Why did you say you didn't have to bring Heard and Angelina...... Magic, can you do this? ”

"My example is special, but don't let it give you any strange insights into magic. Anji, what's going on up ahead? ”

"This ......" Angie raised her hands and held a thin stone rod with a cold ice blue crystal inlaid at the end.

"What is this?" Lu Xi had never seen a crystal of this color before. It was an eerie ice blue that would be difficult for even the most expensive pigments to achieve. If I had to describe it, the boiling blue ink was covered with a thick block of ice. That's what it should look like......

"Looks like I've seen this in a book." Seyriliu looked at the crystal, frowned and thought seriously, "It should be ......"

"White Ghost Crystal." Lu Xi rushed ahead of Sai Xiliu and took the first step to tell the information obtained through the exploration technique.

Sai Xiliu looked at Lu Xi angrily. I must be thinking, "Since you know, why don't you say it and fool me?" ”

"Huh? I can't imagine that the magicians of the Federation know this? Valetan glanced at Lu Xi, and for the first time showed an expression of interest: "I thought that we were the only ones who were stationed on the northern border of the empire all year round. The veterans who fought with those things only knew. ”

Valétan glanced at everyone and saw that there were still quite a few people who were confused. He replied, "The White Ghost Crystal, also known as the Ice Crystal, is said to be a mineral produced in the permafrost north of the Atlas Mountains. And only those white ghosts who are not afraid of the cold at all can mine. They made weapons from these crystals containing deadly ice, and ordinary steel weapons would be frozen to pieces at the touch of them......"

"Chilled to pieces?" Artoria glanced at Lu Xi, who was holding the crystal in his bare hand and putting it into the sunlight to observe.

"So I said, don't use me to measure common sense." Lu Xi replied casually while releasing the flame magic to ease the cold aura of the crystal.

"So, the White Ghost Crystal is actually a weapon? Well, looking at the shape and size of the crystal, it should be the tip of a spear. ”

"Well, that's actually true......"

Actually, it's not a weapon, it's a gem! Actually use such a high-quality inlaid gemstone as a spear tip, how uneducated does that group of white ghosts have to be stupid to × like this?

Name: Perfect White Ghost Crystal. Quality: Golden Epic.

Attributes: 1. Armor inlay, Constitution +10, Perception +5, Ice Resistance +55, Health Recovery +20%, Body Recovery +25%.

2. Jewelry or Staff Inlay, Intelligence +5, Perception +5, Spirit +5, Cast Speed +10%, Ice Magic Power +15%.

3. Weapon inlay, strength +15, ice damage +30, freeze 35%, smash 15%.

Description: This is a very high-purity natural ice crystal, and it is difficult to find such high-quality minerals even in the sources of permafrost.

What an unexpected bonus! Counting the blood crystals obtained in the battle of Black Manga City, this is the second gold-quality inlay that Lu Xi obtained, the previous one has been inlaid on Limu's armor, as for this one, it seems that it is the most powerful to use for yourself.

“…… Angie, where did you find this thing? ”

"It's in a cave across that hill." The Star Spirit Assassin pointed to the opposite side of the mountain road, "There are a lot of corpses there, and I found this one on a dead white ghost. ”

A lot of corpses?

"What else is there besides the white ghost?" Lu Xi hurried up and asked.

"Ten white ghosts, twenty-three blue men, two snow monsters, four winter wolves, and a sheep-headed demon and six horned demons."

Sure enough, there really is an abyss demon here......

Maybe seeing that everyone was a little nervous, Anji added: "It's all dead." ”

Why did even the star spirits start selling cute? That's certainly not what I taught. Lu Xi couldn't help but glare at Anji.

The question is, there are so many dead, what about the living?

Lu Xi asked a few more questions, and a huge roar came from the other side of the mountain road. Then, three beasts the size of calves sprang out of the shadows of the rock's horns, grinning and pounced on them menacingly.

"Three Cerberus!" Lu Xi shrugged his nose. He had even smelled the disgusting smell of sulfur from the mouths of the nine grinning bloodsheds. (To be continued.) )

PS: Well, I also know that the recent update is really hard to see, but these few months are really wooden. I can only say that it should be good to stay up until August...... In addition, even with such a weak update, there are still comrades who are willing to give rewards and monthly tickets, and I can only cry......
