Arcane Journey

Chapter 399

The bitter cold wind was blowing on his face like a knife, and Brian had to put on a protective barrier against the wind and snow to resist the harsh environment here.

Thanks to the convenience brought by magic, even if he didn't put on warm clothes, his whole body was still warm without any chill.

He walked straight from the Standing Stone Plain in the Ennook Desert to the highest icebergs in the north.

Although outsiders always imagine the Great Desert as a simple and huge desert, in fact it is composed of a series of continuous deserts of different types.

From dry sandstorms to savannahs covered with weathered rubble, then to frozen tundra and desolate mountain ranges, and finally to the massive glaciers known as the 'Supreme Glaciers'.

As Brian hurried on his way, the originally hot and soft desert had gradually turned into desolate and rugged rock-scale peaks, and then gradually condensed into ice, until the snow-capped glacial plateau that never melted for thousands of years appeared in his sight, and then he stopped pace.

He has reached the boundary line between the highest glacier and the desert.

Brian hid in the defensive barrier, facing the bitter cold wind, standing on a glacier fault in a certain mountain range, looking beyond the falling snowflakes into the distance.

The highest glacier is a barren land. Not only because of the dangerous natural environment, but also various monster groups living in cold areas. The average challenge level of the player's adventure team is maintained at around level 10. Only dare to move outside.

Because in addition to the usual frost trolls, winter wolves and mammoths and many other evil humanoids and ferocious beasts, there are also legendary creatures such as white dragons, shadows of the void and pale hunters.

Moreover, in this vast group of glaciers, there is still a huge tribe of frost giants living in seclusion. Even legendary professionals with non-spellcasting systems may be buried here if they are not careful.

Of course, this is naturally not dangerous for a strong man like Bryan, and the reason why he stopped was mainly to sense the Sarukh shaman tribe through the holy emblem bestowed on him by Seth's avatar hidden location.

"This is the highest glacier." Seeing Brian stop and wait and see, the golden dragon Paralandax couldn't help but sigh in his mind:

"Dozens of centuries ago, this place was still lush forests and plains, and there were countless ports along the Narrow Sea, but now it has become such a scene. Even the Narrow Sea, which is regarded as the lifeline of the Netherese, has been whitewashed." The vast glaciers swallowed up."

"I said, didn't you feel anything strange along the way?" He asked again as if remembering something.

"What strange place?" Brian asked back with a look on his face.

"The environmental gap here is too great." Jin Long said his discovery:

"Look at the border where we stand, there are cold glaciers in front, and the yellow Gobi Desert in the back. This weird environment seems to be forcibly divided by some kind of energy. formed naturally."

"Also, I've faintly sensed the deadly magical energy here." He added in a low voice.

"Of course." Brian obviously noticed the problem here long ago, and said casually, "Otherwise, the Ennook Desert would not be able to maintain for dozens of centuries without significant changes."

"You mean to say that Felin Mokui's death-absorbing spell has polluted this place." Paralandax knew everything, and he said thoughtfully:
"Looking at it this way, it is simply impossible to restore this great desert to the verdant nature of the Netheril period, and rely on spells to melt the highest glacier like the High King Telamante. Without the felin magic sunflower that was sealed in the forbidden wall of Sharon, without the shackles of this evil energy, even if it is ignored, the highest glacier will gradually melt, and finally return the water resources frozen into glaciers to the entire desert, realizing The effect of greening."

"That's probably what it means." Brian didn't deny it, but there was a hint of worry in his expression looking at the vast snow field.

Among his current goals, in addition to saving the small world that was targeted by the ancient evil, another goal is to heal the wounds of the Ennook Desert, and the key to healing is the Felin Mokui.

Originally, he thought that if he wanted to completely eliminate Felin Mokui, he would at least need his own strength to be around the level of a high-level legend before he could go inside the Forbidden Wall of Sharon to find the memory tower of Felin Mokui.

For him, it will undoubtedly take a long time to complete.

However, the plan couldn't keep up with the changes. As the lost lady Shar further targeted the goddess of magic, even Felin Mokui was involved.

This made Brian think of a way to quickly eliminate the Felin Sorrel after he learned something from the remains of the floating city of Ellando, the great arcanist who studied the Felin Sorrel.

This plan has been implemented with the large amount of information he has obtained about Felin Mokui. As for whether it will be successful, even he himself cannot guarantee it.

Because he is not the executor of the plan, there are naturally many variables in it.

Of course, even if the plan failed in the end, he didn't lose too much. Instead, it was like a test, allowing him to have a deeper understanding of Felin Mokui.

Brian stopped thinking about it, calmed down, and began to communicate with Seth's holy emblem, asking him to guide him to find the sleeping position of the Isto Sefifer witch.

At this moment, an angry roar came faintly from the whistling wind and snow.

It seems that because Brian was standing so conspicuously that he disturbed the natives of the snow-capped highlands, with a roar, several tall and majestic giants ran down from the snow-capped mountains not far away, facing the heavy snow, and the glacier behind them also Therefore, it collapsed suddenly, setting off ice dust all over the sky.

These native creatures wield oversized maces and other heavy weapons, have pale blue hair, and wear the pelts of mammoths, white dragons, or winter wolves around their waists.

Most of the giants were naked, and a small number of giant warriors wore patchwork chain mail shirts or white dragon leather armor, and strange helmets with dragon horns on their heads.

"It's a frost giant!" The golden dragon Paralandusk's thoughts became excited:

"I knew that I would definitely meet these guys when I came here. Don't do anything, just leave it to me. With my deep integration of Austrian fire, I have gradually mastered the ability to cast spells in the form of a soul. To deal with these Trash, it's not just pinched by hand."

It's no wonder that the golden dragon is so excited to see the frost giant. After all, the hatred between the dragon and the giant can be traced back to the 3-year-old Dawn Age.

After the three creator races, the giant dragons and giants fought for thousands of years on the mainland in order to fight for the control of the world. In the end, the two races also gradually withdrew from the stage of history because of the fierce and tragic struggle. Here comes the elven civilization.

Brian nodded slightly, ignoring the frost giant rushing towards him in the blizzard, and continued to concentrate, trying to communicate with Seth's holy emblem and find the location of the Sarukh witch.

On the other side, accompanied by the resonant roar of the golden dragon Paralandasque through his thoughts.

All the frost giants around were stunned by this soul attack and stayed in place. A few of the weaker ones were even so frightened that their legs became weak and they lay on the ground trembling.

Immediately afterwards, the scorching flame dragon's breath spewed out from the mouth of Jinlong Xuying.

The terrible dragon's breath suddenly raised the surrounding temperature. Wherever it passed, the ice layer melted, like a long dragon hovering and flying, enveloping all the frost giants in a sea of ​​flames, and burning them blazingly.

After a while, the group of frost giants who were howling ghostly and wolf howling in the sea of ​​fire disappeared. When the thick smoke engulfed in the wind and snow dissipated, the charred bodies of frost giants were revealed, lying quietly in the melting ice, oozing out of a puddle. A puddle of black blood.

This seemingly one-sided battle was not fierce, but as the battle ended, the surrounding glaciers were actually affected by it, collapsing and breaking, like raging waves, rushing down from the snow-capped mountains with a mist of ice and dust all over the sky , There is a tendency to completely submerge Brian.

At this time, Brian just searched for the sleeping position of the Sarukh witch through the holy emblem.

With a thought, he activated the flying technique and soared into the sky.

Then under the protection of the defensive barrier, he floated in the sky against the cold wind, looked down at the icebergs in the distance, and said to Jinlong, "Let's go, I have found their location."

"That's it."

The phantom of Paralandax hovered around Brian, reluctantly looked at the frost giant team who came to support him not far away, and said:
"I haven't had a good fight in nearly a thousand years, and I plan to take you to find a white dragon's lair to play and search for it. This is not fun at all."

"Don't waste time here." Brian frowned, holding the holy emblem in one hand, and pointing to the far north with the other:

"The connection with the Sa Luke witch is very weak. If it is later, I am worried that something will happen suddenly."

"Okay." Jin Long replied helplessly, put away his playfulness, turned into a golden light, and disappeared into the Austrian fire.

Under the guidance of the Holy Emblem, Brian came to the deepest part of the highest glacier without any risk.

Ice cellars of different sizes are densely packed here, like beehives, distributed on the snow-covered glaciers, and the sleeping place of the Sa Luke witch is very likely hidden in a certain ice cave here.

Faced with this situation, Brian could only be patient and float in mid-air, looking for the sleeping place of the Sarukh witch in the severe wind and snow that was enough to block his sight.

And the golden dragon Paralandax also turned into a huge phantom and surrounded him, exuding soul awe that belonged to the real dragon family from time to time, and was always on guard against the indigenous monsters that might come out of the unknown ice cellar at any time.

After all, in the past four hours or so of their search for the scorpion, whether it was a group of winter wolves, a legend-level pale hunter, or even a white dragon that ran away with its tail between its legs, it can be said that they all experienced it many times. Naturally dare not be careless.

Bryan, who was on a mission, was not in the mood to fight these things. He often tried to avoid them by using concealment spells after detecting their existence in advance.

Finally, hard work paid off, and Brian stopped beside a glacier canyon as deep as a bottomless abyss.

Feeling the hot temperature transmitted by the holy emblem in his palm, he realized that the shaman of the ancient Isto Sefifer Empire might be hidden in it.

Brian stood on the spot and pondered for a moment. After confirming that there was nothing dangerous enough to threaten him, he adjusted his trigger and various buff spells, and jumped down without hesitation.

When he slowly fell to the ground through the floating technique, he found that the canyon was very dry, and there were not even any traces of ice and snow erosion.

Feeling the warmth and instructions conveyed by the holy emblem, Brian continued to walk towards the north of the canyon according to the direction guided by it.

"Are you really going to help Seth's clone?" Walking in the silent canyon, the golden dragon who had been silent for a long time suddenly conveyed his thoughts to him abruptly.

"Otherwise?" Brian was slightly taken aback, then smiled indifferently, "Is there any problem?"

"In any case, Seth represents the evil side of the snake of the universe." As the two got closer and closer to the end of the canyon, Golden Dragon analyzed to him solemnly:
"After all, the current Feathered Serpent is also a member of the former Okos shaman tribe. If Seth's clone is really restored to strength, as long as he is not stupid, he will never attack Mulhorand's evil god Seth first. , but live in the Chuertan jungle, and the Feathered Snake who competes with the evil snakeman for survival and expansion will be the first to suffer, and by then, the flames of war may completely spread to the Chuertan Peninsula."

"If that's the case, wouldn't the two of us be indirectly accomplices in causing this disaster?" He reminded vaguely.

"The question you mentioned, I have actually considered it a long time ago." Regarding Paralandusk's worries, Brian was not worried at all, but said with a smile, "Even if Seth is not swallowed by the bottomless abyss , He is also unlikely to threaten the Feathered Serpent in the Chult Forest, because Uota, the father of dinosaurs, will never sit idly by."

He glanced at the canyon that was about to come to the end, and continued, "Besides, I don't think the sleeping Isto Sefifer witch will help their former gods. This is the main reason why I dare to take the task of Seth's clone." reason."

As soon as the voice fell, a strong stench wafted over.

Immediately afterwards, Brian noticed that in many cracks and caves on both sides of the canyon, densely packed indigenous monsters suddenly appeared.

A closer look revealed that this is a group of lizardmen who are good at jumping.

They bounced and rushed down the various cliffs of the canyon, faintly surrounding him, holding various weapons, and making threatening hissing sounds.

"This is the Ethiopian lizardman!" Jinlong said in amazement, "So they didn't perish, they actually lived in the canyon deep in the highest glacier."

"The creator of the Ethiopian lizardman is the Isto Sefifer witch." Facing the menacing lizardman, Brian remained unmoved, but said calmly, "This means that the Ethiopian lizardman The denser the place is, the more likely it is to hide the sleeping place of the Isto Sefifer witch."

"It seems that we have come to the right place." He smiled and held up the holy emblem bestowed on him by Seth, and met the group of Ethiopian lizards who had fierce eyes but did not dare to get too close.
