Cold air, uninhabited land.

and the dangers that may arise from the surroundings at some point.

The rest of the journey was undoubtedly dangerous for the expedition members, but it was also a choice they made when faced with challenges.

Probably because Giovanni was the first to stand up and set an example.

It may also be that there is still the courage to challenge difficulties and dangers in everyone's heart.

In short-

This journey will continue.

And none of them chose to quit halfway.

As if in response to their choice, less than a day later, the real challenge came to them.

- It's snowing.

— and a blizzard accompanied by a hurricane.

The expedition team, which had just crossed the hillside, was walking on a frozen ice.

At this moment, in the face of sudden weather changes, I immediately fell into a very tricky situation.

The cold wind blows like a knife on the bare skin, and the ice under your feet can cause you to fall if you are not careful. Even if the expedition team provided non-slip shoes, they soon became less reliable due to the extreme weather of snow and ice.

Not to mention the body heat that is constantly being taken away by this icy weather.

The most direct sense is the direct conflict between a lowered body temperature and an impatient heart.

“……”

Facing the wind and snow, it was difficult to advance for half an hour.

Seeing that the momentum of this blizzard was still growing, Bettina in the team finally couldn't help but shout:

"Giovanni, we need to camp where we are!"

"It's irrational to go forward in this weather!"

Betina's suggestion was very reasonable, and in this case the expedition members had to conserve their strength in case of possible trouble.

“……”

Giovanni, who was at the front of the line, heard this shout, and subconsciously looked up into the distance against the wind and snow—white snowflakes blew straight to his face, and the same was true between heaven and earth in the distance.

The wind and snow disturbed his vision, leaving him with little to observe anything of value.

"Javik, gather all the bighorn deer!"

"Fence the perimeter with a camp cloth first, and then prepare the tent."

Javik, at the front of the team, immediately responded:

"I see!"

“……”

Soon, the team paused and prepared to rest in place.

However, the next work of setting up the camp in the wind and snow went unexpectedly.

After all, Ronald and Kostat are on the team.

In the face of such a snowstorm, it may take a lot of effort for ordinary people to just set up the surrounding camp. However, Ronald and the two stood in the wind and snow, not affected by the weather at all. Any work in your hands is as easy as practicing indoors.

So it didn't take too long.

A makeshift camp that would shelter the expedition from the wind and snow would be a simple one.

While everyone gathered around to light a fire to keep warm, they naturally couldn't help but think of the situation when the camp was set up just now.

Immediately, someone couldn't help but sigh:

"Mr. Ronald, are the spellcasters on the mysterious side as powerful as the two of you?"

Ronald smiled and shook his head:

"Don't worry, it's not as exaggerated as you think."

"Except for some guys who use spells to specialize in strengthening their bodies, most people's physical fitness is no different from ordinary people, and Kostadt and I are special cases among special cases."

When the questioner heard this answer, his expression suddenly felt a lot more relieved:

"That's ...... so"

Several members of the team continued to talk, while someone boiled water and prepared food.

It was on this occasion that Giovanni, the leader of the expedition, couldn't help the curiosity in his heart and asked Ronald his own question:

"Then again......"

"Mr. Ronald, is there any better way for a spell caster like you to deal with this kind of extreme weather?"

Ronald heard the meaning of Giovanni's tone, and his eyes immediately turned to Kostadt beside him.

Your own spells are basically the types used in battle.

A complete blank that can protect people's safety for a long time.

If you want to make the expedition safer and more convenient, the only person you can ask for help at present is the maid next to you:

"Kostadt, do you have any good ideas?"

Although this is Ronald's request, in the face of something beyond his ability, Kostadt can only shake his head regretfully:

"Sir, I'm sorry—"

"The longest-lasting spell in my ability can't handle such an all-weather action. As for spells that change the weather...... In the case of such an extreme climate, the effect is unlikely to last long. ”

Receiving such a response, Ronald could only shrug his shoulders regretfully at Giovanni:

"That's about it."

"Aside from camping and security, we shouldn't be able to provide much extra help on the way forward."

"No, no, no!" In the face of Ronald's apology, Giovanni immediately waved his hands, "I didn't mean that." In fact, I was very satisfied to receive this kind of help when I was setting up the camp just now. ”

"When I was on an expedition in the past, I didn't encounter such conditions."

Bang Dong –

At this time, the palms of the people preparing the food are numb because the weather is too cold. I didn't hold the kettle and let the water spill out, and the flames that had just risen were immediately wet.

"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry!"

"It's too cold, I, I'm a little unsteady in my hands, and that's going to raise the fire."

It was supposed to be just a small episode.

It doesn't cause any accidents.

But seeing the scene of the expedition members lighting a fire, Ronald suddenly had an idea.

"Wait a minute...... Something suddenly came to mind! ”

Realizing this, Ronald immediately got up from the crowd and turned around and walked out of the tent to the Bighorn deer.

These gentle creatures, nestled together in the wind and snow, maintain their own temperature. Because they are extremely hardy animals, they have no problem in this kind of weather.

After Ronald lifted the ban.

One even shook his head at him.

"That's good—"

Ronald gently touched the bighorn deer's head, then walked over to the one carrying the luggage.

Among the supplies he was carrying, Ronald found a sealed box and opened it directly against the snowstorm.

Whew-

In an instant, the light was shining all around.

The appearance of the lantern flame directly brightened up the entire camp and even beyond. And under the light that can sting the skin, not even the powerful wind and snow from the outside world can enter the slightest.

“……”

Look at the lantern that is constantly shining in your hand.

Ronald couldn't help but smile:

"I really didn't expect this thing to be useful in the snow in addition to the Nameless Sea?"
