Half an hour later, a small sailing boat was slowly sailing out of the harbor of the Lena Strait and into the waters around the Lena Strait.

"Damn! We were fooled by that walrus!! 5,000 gold coins is cheap, but it doesn't say that this small sailboat is only suitable for one person!! Nebula muttered disapprovingly as he steered the sailboat.

Chiyura comforted Nebula, "Nebula-sama, it's okay!" I'll just sit in the stern of the boat, it's just a means of transportation anyway, so I don't have to rent a big one. ”

Brad sat cross-legged on the bow of the sailboat, carefully observing the surrounding environment, and after finding that there was nothing abnormal, he said to Zhiyura: "Nebula, since they have already set off, then don't complain." Do you want to go back now and change to a big sailboat? That kind of sailboat can't be controlled by one person, and you won't want to recruit sailors after you change it, right? As Chiyura said, this is just a means of transportation, and as an adventurer, can't you even endure this little hardship? ”

After Xingyun heard the words of the two, he had to stop complaining and concentrate on driving the sailboat.

They two unconscionable fellows, don't you know how troublesome it is to steer a sailboat?

His strength is relatively small, whether it is pulling the sail or retracting the central board, it is very difficult, and it is difficult to ask them for help, after all, they are both idiots for navigation, and Chiyura can't even swim!!

Of course, these words Nebula is just thinking about it in his heart, and if he says it, he is really an idiot.

After a while, an Iceland appeared in the field of vision of Nebula and others. It seems that this island is the first observatory that the penguin Fertan said!?

After sailing into the Icelandic harbor and securing the ship with ropes, the three Nebulas boarded Iceland and headed for the building in the middle of Iceland.

At the door of the building, a penguin wearing a pink velvet hat and round-rimmed glasses was standing stupidly with an observation notebook. Fotan!! Yes! No, you're not a Fotan! Is it Pulo? Ouch? Ouch!! I haven't seen you yet!! And you're not a penguin family, may I ask you?"

Seeing this penguin so stupid, both Nebula and Brad were stunned and couldn't say a word

"Hello, are you Mr. Puska from Observation 1? We have been commissioned by Mr. Photan to fight the witch. Tomoyura came back to his senses first, asked the dumb penguin about its identity, and revealed to it the purpose of the others.

When the penguin heard what Chiyura said, he was overjoyed and took Nebula's hand and shook it vigorously, and said, "Ah! What a faux pas! Are you the adventurers that Photan invited to hunt witches? Every day, I just stared at the sky, and suddenly I looked at something on the ground, and my eyes were a little uncomfortable. But at first glance, you look a bit like penguins. ”

What does it mean to be like a penguin? How could I be like a stupid penguin in front of me!?

Nebula stopped on the spot, and he shouted at Pusha, "You're like a penguin!" Your whole family is like penguins!! ”

"That Nebula-sama, Mr. Puska was originally a penguin," Chiyura reminded weakly instead of laughing at Nebula's slip of the tongue.

Brad, who was on the side, laughed and said, "Hahaha~~~ Nebula, you guy is so funny!" Actually said such childish words!! ”

"This Mr. Brad, Nebula-sama was still a child," Chiyura reminded helplessly.

What the hell is going on? The two who were originally so shrewd also became stupid after meeting this stupid penguin, can stupid people also be contagious?

Penguin put down the notebook in his hand, cleared his throat and said to Nebula and the others, "Hello, adventurers! My name is Puska and I'm a researcher. In order to find the witch, I have been observing here, mainly observing the sky and the changes in the wind. Not so long ago, as the iceberg broke, a strange monster appeared"

"Oh~~~ Is it a monster removal job? You can leave it to us with confidence!! We'll get the task done, where are the monsters? Brad said with a pat on his chest at Puska.

Brad is very confident in his own strength, and under his previous temptation, Brad believes that Nebula's strength should not be underestimated, and can even be compared to himself.

Brad believes that as long as they don't encounter boss-level monsters above level seventy, both of them have a way to solve them.

As for Nebula's retinue Chiyura, although the level is a little lower, the maple leaf sword on his back can increase the accuracy (hit rate) of physical attacks, and it can also cause some damage to high-level monsters.

The penguin shook his head and said to Brad, "Adventurer, can you listen to me?" The work of monster removal has already been done by another silver-haired adventurer who happened to pass by here. Eighty ammonite fossils and eighty fish fossils, he has completely removed. I want to ask you for another thing, there is a path on the west side of here, and I hear a shout there, as if the voice of a young girl is not inhabited here, so whose voice is it? Adventurer, can you go and help me take a look? ”

Nebula and Brad were stunned, what kind of mission is this called? Such a simple exploration mission, this penguin can't do it itself?

Although Nebula and Brad are dismissive of Puska's mission requirements, there may be some connection between the melting glacier of the Ice Island and this girl, so it's better to check it out!

So, Nebula sailed a small sailboat, taking Brad and Chiyura, to the place Puska had mentioned

★?????????????????? ★

After a while, Nebula and the others arrived in Iceland as Puska was talking about, and it heard the shouts of a young girl nearby.

At the edge of Iceland, the three of them could clearly see that at the peak of Iceland, there was a lonely girl in a brown down jacket, a purple velvet hat, and an orange and white woolen scarf.

She was shouting for help, and judging by her hoarse voice, she might have been in this cold place all day.

In Iceland, there are almost all rocks that can be crawled slowly. There are two types of such stone monsters, one is a brown stone monster with a chrysanthemum-like pattern engraved on the forehead, and the other is a black-gray stone monster with a fish bone pattern engraved on the forehead.

"It seems that these monsters should be the ammonite fossils and fish fossils that the dumb penguin said, but I didn't expect that the fossils that were originally antiquities could become living monsters." Brad stroked his chin and said suspiciously.

Nebula took out the Maple Leaf Staff and said to Brad, "What are you doing so much, now the first thing is to rescue this big sister with light blue hair and glasses." How about we compare? See who hunts more stone monsters? ”

"Hehe, that's what I mean!! So, here begins!! As soon as Brad finished speaking, he used his Dash skill and rushed towards the pile of fossil monsters.

The effect of the double jump of the Flasher and the Flying Man is almost the same, but the method used is slightly different.

Nebula was also not to be left behind, and continued to use teleportation, directly teleporting into this pile of fossil monsters, and immediately a burst of thunder fell.

Brad, on the other hand, has a lot of moves, he first used an ordinary quick knife slash, and under Brad's double knives, the fossil monster was like tofu, and was cut into pieces of rubble by Qi Brush.

Then there was the tornado, and Brad spun his blade rapidly as he lunged forward with the monster in front of him, creating a short but violent whirlwind.

Then came the Flowing Cloud Slash, which slashed at the enemy eight times in a row at a speed that was imperceptible to the naked eye, and under this move, not a single fossil monster could survive.

Finally, there's the Twin Blade Storm, which moves forward at an eerie pace and attacks multiple enemies in succession, filling the blades with the heavy wails of fossil monsters everywhere they go.

Nebula is a little difficult to do, his group attack magic is okay except for the power of thunder and lightning, and the rest is not good at all. Both Frost and Frost Nova are only reflected in the application of negative effects, and the more powerful Ice Roar Nebula cannot be used because it is not at the same level, so it can only be used to remove these fossil monsters from beginning to end.

Fortunately, there were not many monsters, and it only took five minutes for the fossil monsters around Iceland to be cleaned up by the two of them.

"I've slaughtered one hundred and twenty-three of these fossil monsters, what about you?" Nebula casually stuck the Maple Leaf Staff on the cloth bag behind his back and asked Brad.

The staff pouch is a convenience item that has only been introduced in recent years, just like the scabbard of a warrior, the pouch carried by the mage can fully hold the magic wand, and the large bag at the bottom of the pouch is specially used to place the magic shield.

After all, the strength of a mage is limited, and the weight of the staff and magic shield is not light, if you hold the staff and magic shield all the time, it can easily lead to physical exhaustion.

And the bag is engraved with a space inscription, as long as you brand your own spiritual imprint on the staff and magic shield, when you encounter danger, as long as you move your thoughts, the magic wand and magic shield on the bag will instantly appear in the magician's hand.

This is much better than putting it in a spatial ring, or wearing it on a dummy model and then using a costume skill, after all, it still takes a second to take out the equipment from the space ring or use the costume change skill.

Don't underestimate this second, sometimes it is just a second away from it, and it can make the difference between life and death for a weak magician.

After hearing the Nebula's figures, the smug smile on Brad's face suddenly froze, and he replied to Nebula with great regret: "I'm also one hundred and twenty-three, I didn't show my true skills, it was my mistake, I shouldn't have left my hand." ”

"Humph! I still have hole cards that I haven't played, and I can't lose to you!! Not to be outdone, Nebula responded.

Zhiyura, who was standing on the side, saw the two of them frowning coldly, and hurriedly stepped forward to dissuade them: "Don't quarrel with the two of you, the most important thing now is to rescue the girl first!" Surrounded by so many monsters, she was most likely injured, and according to Mr. Brad's reasoning, it was likely that the girl had been starving and freezing all day, and we had to hurry to rescue her!! ”

After hearing Zhiyula's persuasion, the two finally shook hands and made peace, and this time the competition ended in a draw

(In the game, the mage is always holding a magic wand and a magic shield, but in the novel it is better to have something similar to a scabbard, as I said in the article, the mage's weak body cannot hold a bulky magic wand and magic shield for a long time.) Thank you Lei Bang Qiuxuan for your reward, and I really thank my book friends who have always supported me! I won't say too many polite words, just thank you. ）
