Scarlet wasteland, lost paths.

A group of seven people were walking along the rugged mountain road.

The climate here is quite mild, but you can already see a few snow-capped mountains in the distance.

The Lost Trail is already very familiar to the people of that squad, and they definitely can't go wrong.

Like the Dry Leaf Corridor, as an important transportation channel, the human forces in the Scarlet Wasteland will always remove monsters regularly, so there are not many monsters on the Lost Path. A handful of monsters won't fail to provoke a team of six powerhouses with legendary abilities.

That's right, four of the seven were members of that squad. They seem to be partners from the same plane, who have been adventuring together for a long time.

And the other three, in addition to Marven, there is only one paladin left, and there is a little girl who looks very weak.

The Paladin profession is usually very sensitive in the Scarlet Wasteland.

Because most of the power of the holy warriors comes from the gods they believe in, although they also have the fruits of their own cultivation, a large part of them need the support of the gods and gods. And the faction and inclination of the gods are very important in a place like the Scarlet Wasteland.

So before inviting this paladin to join the team, the four original members had already figured out the details of this paladin.

It's just that the answer is somewhat shocking.

This is a believer in the God of Truth!

You must know that since the fall of the God of Truth, most of its magicians, priests, and paladins have not been able to get a response from it. Although before the fall, the God of Truth left a [Eternal Scale] as a place of sustenance for the divine fire after the collapse of his godhead, most people still can't believe in the God of Truth.

After all, from the perspective of the gods, the god of ancient truth has died literally. What they believe in is nothing more than mechanical rules.

In this era, there were also holy warriors who believed in the god of truth. It's a strange thing in itself.

What's even more strange is that he actually cultivated to the legendary realm, and he also appeared in the blood-colored wasteland.

Marven was very interested in him. It's just that since he entered the team, he has been silent.

In addition, the little girl on his back has been in a deep sleep, and she exudes an evil aura, even when she is resting. He was cold and silent, looking like he was not approaching, and Marven couldn't learn more information.

He had only heard a few things from the rest of the team, and the little girl seemed to have fallen under a very vicious curse.

This curse can only be lifted by the divine servants of some powerful gods in the Holy Light City.

Of course, if the God of Truth is still there, this holy warrior may have the ability to lift the curse himself; However, the god he believed in was dead, and no matter how strong his faith was, the god would not have given him magic to save the cursed little girl.

This is perhaps the saddest thing about him.

……

Except for the Paladin and the little girl. The other four went to the Holy Light City to meet some old friends.

As for what exactly to do when we met, I didn't say much. After all, everyone is just a relationship that goes all the way.

In a place like the Scarlet Wasteland, because they are all humans, it may be safer for everyone to go on the road together; But few people will take the initiative to reveal the details of each other.

Even Marven himself just made an excuse and fooled around.

He took a closer look, and the four members of this team all had good combat effectiveness, two of them were men and two women. Both males are melee characters, and one female is suspected to be a sorcerer. The other is a very obvious legendary wizard.

In the ranks, the legendary wizard was clearly one rank above the others.

It can be seen that her strength may be the strongest.

As for the others, they are almost all five-five, and the legend level will not exceed level 3; Of course, it's better than a rookie like Marven who has just entered the legend.

It's just that after Marven joined the team, he didn't show himself according to his previous profession.

In fact. Since obtaining the Staff of the Greyhawk, he has been able to flexibly change his role.

He defined himself as a legendary druid.

Now he was riding on a steed summoned with the Staff of the Gray Eagle, and followed the rest of the group gracefully.

He wore a thick cloak on the outside, and held the staff of the gray eagle in his hand, if he didn't know the details. I'm afraid you'll really think it's a spellcaster.

……

The Lost Trail is not very long, according to the calculations of the team leader [Hunter] Fenno, at the current speed, almost before dark, you can reach the foot of the snow-capped mountain.

Then there is a real risk of facing a really serious test. It's easy now.

The atmosphere in the team was not dull - Fenno was very eloquent, often telling innocuous jokes, and even the stereotyped-looking paladin would change his face when Fenno deliberately adjusted the atmosphere.

It can be seen that the four of them cooperate very well, and the two women don't seem to do anything, but the legendary wizard's pet, a crow, has been flying back and forth near them. The crow's eyes are gray and misty, and it clearly has the ability to see through and be anti-invisible.

From time to time, the magician threw a detection spell beneath the surface to prevent monsters from underground.

The two casters work together, and the intensity of such reconnaissance is very high, and few enemies can successfully ambush them.

At first, Marven occasionally used to perceive the earth, but later found that his actions were purely superfluous.

Sure enough, follow the team, it is still necessary to save some effort.

Time passed minute by minute, and Marven occasionally chatted with Fenno, which was a good relief for boredom.

When the blood light in the sky gradually dimmed, they really arrived at the foot of the snow-capped mountain.

At the intersection ahead, there is a street sign, the texture is enchanted Nanmu, and a straight arrow is drawn on it-[Torch Valley (Direction of Holy Light City)].

"Leave the road ahead, and the protective barrier that belongs to the Lost Path disappears."

Fenno rarely became serious: "Last time, we were caught in an avalanche not far ahead, everyone pay attention. ”

Everyone nodded silently.

Those who can mess around in the Scarlet Wasteland are not fledgling newcomers, and they know when to relax. When is it necessary to be vigilant at all times.

The group continued in the direction of the signpost.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for Marven to feel a terrifying chill descending.

It was as if you had entered the snow-capped mountains directly from a warm area.

The difference in this climate was so great that the little girl on the back of the paladin was awakened.

"Where is this? Uncle Griffin? ”

The little girl's voice was weak, as if every word required all her strength.

"We'll be there in no time."

This was the first time Marven had heard the Holy Warrior speak. His voice was calm and powerful, with a convincing force.

"Close your eyes, no matter what you hear, don't open them, I will protect you."

"Hmm."

The little girl trusted the paladin very much, and sure enough, she obediently closed her eyes.

The rest of the people didn't pay much attention to the conversation between the two, their expressions became very serious, and the two melee powerhouses even grabbed their weapons in their hands.

Exaggerated axes and elongated swords are very rare weapons - at least the former seems to be unfit for human stature, while the latter seems to be flashy in actual combat. But the strength of these two human powerhouses is beyond doubt. Marven could sense the powerful explosive power in their bodies.

"Maybe they're not pure-blooded humans."

Marven observed silently.

Fenno holds a sword and moves gracefully, more like a human with elven blood; The other man was more rugged, his two-handed axe was completely out of tune with his stature, but he was able to wield his weapon with weight.

The terrain ahead changes abruptly, and a large amount of snow appears under the adventurers' feet.

The road that was clearly visible was buried by heavy snow, and they did not go very fast.

In the dark. Marven seemed to feel a pair of eyes watching them all the time.

This is not surprising.

Before he set out, he was told that the blizzard here might be man-induced. If it is a legendary wizard with strong mana, he is fully capable of doing this. And the words of a divine servant with divine support are even simpler.

No matter who wants to block this place, Marven has only one attitude - that is, to break through!

If he wants to find Minsk, he must reach the City of Light. No one can stop him.

On the surface, he still holds the staff of the gray eagle, and he also intimately blessed his teammates with a few natural aura spells, looking like a full druid.

In fact, his left hand was already pressed against the green leaves around his waist.

If there is any movement. He can instantly transform from a "Grand Druid" into a cold-blooded Assassin.

……

It's just that to Marven's surprise, this feeling quickly disappeared except for a while at the beginning.

They navigated through the snow very smoothly without any obstacles.

"Ahead is Torch Valley."

Fenno looked relieved with a look of joy.

The four of them are said to have walked back and forth no less than four times on this road, and there should be no mistake.

Like the Lost Trail, Torch Valley is also protected by enchantments. It's just that the enchantment power of the Lost Trail comes from the Black Swan Hill, and the Torch Valley comes from the Holy Light City.

As long as they can reach the Torch Valley, they won't be afraid of blizzards and other conditions.

However, at this time, the sorcerer Nolan suddenly issued a warning:

"Be careful, there's something under the snow!"

In an instant, the brilliance of her recon technique turned from golden yellow to crimson!

The crimson glow suddenly changed into a pattern.

Everyone can clearly see that under the vast snow, there are one hole after another!

These holes are nests.

A large number of ice worms are frantically pouring out of their nests!

"Prepare for battle!"

Fenno roared, and the thin sword in his hand slashed to the ground, and suddenly, snowflakes flew up all over the sky, and the sound was endless!
