The first thousand six hundred and sixty-seven chapters travel in the snow
"Is there any point in saying this now?" Philoria looked very calm when faced with Leo's question. She neither admitted nor denied, she just asked Leo in return.
Leo didn't need to ask any more questions after hearing this, and he didn't have much interest in the brood spaceship anymore. Even though he knew that there must be other secrets hidden in that spaceship, he no longer had the desire to explore.
Because the ownership of that spaceship was much more complicated than he imagined.
At first, Leo just thought that this brood spaceship was a lost and unowned spaceship like other relics of spaceships in this world or the world of Velen. But judging from all the signs found now, it is obvious that this spaceship has an owner.
Yes, and even if this owner is not Bai Lu, he is a mysterious existence with an extraordinary relationship with Bai Lu, and the landing of the spaceship in this world is also premeditated.
As for the premeditation, it should be related to this world. It may involve why Bai Lu values this world so much, why he arranges so many chess pieces in this world, etc. Leo has no intention of getting involved in Bai Lu's plan.
The best thing he can do now is to ignore everything related to it and avoid too much contact with Bailu's chess pieces buried in this world, just like what he is going to do next.
After Leo figured it out, he stood up and said, "Now that the treasure here has been discovered, there is no need for me to stay here anymore. I think it's time to leave."
Seeing that Leo was about to leave, Philoria couldn't help but frown, and soon understood what Leo was thinking, so she didn't point it out clearly, she just smiled and said: "Actually, there is no need for you to leave so soon, especially
It's now. Don't you know that there is a black storm blowing now? If you leave now, you will get lost in the snowfield. It is better to wait for the storm to stop and go on the road with us. Didn't you say you are going to Movit Road? I
The destination also happens to be Movit Road..."
"No need!" Leo rejected Filoria's kindness and said, "You should know very well that such a storm is not a big problem for people like us."
Seeing Leo's resolute attitude, Philoria didn't say anything more, but she still reminded: "Don't underestimate the black storm in the snowfield. This black storm is just the first wave. The following ones will
The Bosnian storm is the highlight, even now I have to be careful when facing those waves of black storm, the black storm's restriction on extraordinary power is not much worse than that." As she said, she pointed in the direction of Palm Rock.
, and then suggested: "I will send you a guide! Although he cannot help you withstand the black storm, he can help you not to get lost in the black storm."
After hearing this, Leo thought about it for a while, and finally did not refuse Philoria's kindness and nodded.
Seeing this, Philoria called the men outside the tent in, then thought about it and ordered: "Go and call Hancock. I have a task to give him." After giving the order, she asked Lei again.
Ou introduced: "This Hancock has been with me for more than ten years. He travels to the snowfield just like his own backyard. Although the black storm is very dangerous, it will not cause any harm to him. He can help you survive the storm."
Find the correct route to Movit Road."
The two waited for a while, and then Philoria's subordinate brought Hancock, who looked a little old, over.
Hancock walked in with a panic look on his face. After seeing Philoria's greatly changed form, he couldn't help but show a look of shock on his face. Then he felt the special power of Philoria.
I couldn't help but lower my head, and my heart was even more panicked.
His panic at the moment was not only due to Filoria's power, but also because he thought that Filoria had called him here to smuggle contraband privately.
Just when the beast carrying the smuggled goods ran into another team, when the people of that team were cleaning the goods, they also dug out the smuggled goods. When he received the news, he was about to
Before the news spread, he went to the leader of the team to discuss getting the things back. As a result, Philoria sent someone to find him at this time. It was hard not to think of such a coincidence and make him think of Philoria.
Leah may have known what he was doing.
Naturally, Hancock's obvious expression did not escape Philoria's eyes. She quickly remembered the character of this old subordinate and couldn't help but frown. She didn't say anything about Leo immediately, but it seemed to be intentional.
As he pointed out, he said: "Whether you tell me honestly or I tell you, you should know that the meanings of the two are completely different."
Seeing what Philoria said, Hancock didn't dare to make excuses. He quickly told the whole story that the trustee of the Spirit of Knowledge Church asked him to smuggle a batch of church classics. Even the deposit paid by the Spirit of Knowledge Church was stolen by him.
Take it out.
"Church of the Spirit of Knowledge?" Philoria couldn't help but froze for a moment after hearing this. She seemed to have thought of something. Then the expression on her face changed slightly, and soon returned to normal. She then said to Hancock: "The deposit has been confiscated.
, this time the task of leading the team is considered void, your transfer order has been postponed, this is your punishment, do you accept it?"
"Accept, accept!" Hancock responded quickly, not daring to bargain.
"I assign you another task," Filoria pointed to Leo beside him, and continued: "This is my guest. He is in a hurry to go to Movit Road. You will follow him on the road as his guide."
,"
"Now?" Hancock asked with a surprised look on his face.
"Yes, it's now." Philoria said unhappily: "If it were normal times, I wouldn't be looking for you. Others don't have the ability to be guides in the black storm, so what? You have a problem
?"
Hancock shook his head quickly and said: "No, of course not. I promise to send this guest to Movitello safely."
Philoria nodded and then said: "In addition, should you take the church books you brought with you? As for whether you want to take them to Movitello or throw them away on the road, those are all your business. I
No matter. Do you understand?"
Hancock was stunned for a long time before he realized what Philoria meant and quickly responded: "I understand, I understand!"
For him, although he lost a deposit and received some penalties, Philoria seemed to have acquiesced in his smuggling of the Spirit of Knowledge Church classics, and allowed him to complete the smuggling, and the subsequent
The balance of the payment should also belong to him. This is undoubtedly a windfall that was lost and recovered.
Filoria turned to Leo and said: "Hancock has a strong sense of direction and will not lose his way even in a black storm. This ability is unique in my Chamber of Commerce. As a
Guide, you don’t have to worry about getting lost.”
Hearing what Philoria said, Leo also looked Hancock up and down, and then his mental network also checked the other person's body, and soon discovered that this Hancock should be an extraordinary person with an awakened bloodline.
Or, it's just that his bloodline did not bring him any extraordinary abilities visible to the naked eye. This can be distinguished from the fact that he only had weak bloodline power fluctuations but no more extraordinary power reactions.
However, judging from Philoria's words, it is obvious that Hancock's extraordinary ability after awakening his bloodline should be related to direction. Otherwise, Philoria would not have mentioned this person's sense of direction so emphatically. Perhaps this
This is the reason why Hancock was not expelled from the Chamber of Commerce by Philoria even though he behaved badly and made many mistakes.
Leo asked Hancock what he needed to prepare, and after knowing that he had something to prepare, he decided to leave with him.
But when leaving, Philoria gave Leo an identity token, saying that if there was any trouble in the city in the polar mountains, she could use this identity token to solve it, even if she didn't think it would be caused by something.
Trouble can embarrass Leo.
After leaving the camp, Hancock wiped the sweat from his forehead, then led Leo to a campsite on the edge of the camp, and found the supervisor of the camp. It seemed that he wanted to get it from the supervisor.
Return the batch of church books he smuggled.
At first, the camp director ignored Hancock. Even though Hancock said that Philoria had tacitly allowed him to smuggle the goods, he obviously did not believe Hancock's words.
But when Hancock asked Leo to take out the token that Philoria gave him, the camp director immediately changed his attitude, took out the batch of contraband that he had seized, and also obeyed Hancock's instructions.
Through Cock's arrangement, an old beast of burden was brought to them.
These beasts of burden of the Ice Bear Chamber of Commerce are a kind of long-haired beast special to the North Icefield. This kind of long-haired beast is larger than an adult ice bear. It has extremely high endurance and cold protection ability, and can carry heavy goods.
It is the best choice for caravan beasts of burden.
However, the temperament of this kind of long-haired beast is not docile. Instead, it is very violent, aggressive, and difficult to tame. Therefore, there are only a few Northland chambers of commerce that can equip long-haired beasts in large quantities, and the Ice Bear Chamber of Commerce is one of them.
, and it is also the chamber of commerce with the largest number of long-haired beasts.
The reason for this is that as a war bear priest, Philoria has an extraordinary talent in taming animals. Not to mention long-haired beasts, she can even tame direwolves with more violent and unruly temperaments.
Tamed, and even able to form an elite wolf cavalry, but now that wolf cavalry was sent by her to protect her tribe.
As an old subordinate who has been with Philoria for more than ten years, Hancock does not have Philoria's miraculous ability to tame beasts, but he does have his own method of controlling beasts.
When other people in the caravan helped him put the unloaded smuggled goods back into the large hanging baskets at both ends of the beast, he walked up to the long-haired beast and reached out to gently pat the long-haired beast's mouth on one side.
, as he patted the long-haired beast, which was a little restless, it also calmed down. He followed him on the ladder, stood at a high place, put his hand on the forehead of the long-haired beast, and then closed his eyes slightly, as if
It's like chanting something while doing some kind of religious ceremony.
The people around him were accustomed to this, and no one glanced at Hancock. However, Leo, who was standing aside waiting for the preparations to be completed, looked at Hancock with a deep look, and an inexplicable smile appeared on his face.
Because Hancock recited deliberately vaguely, even if he stood next to Hancock, it was impossible to hear clearly what he was reciting. But Leo was different. His extraordinary hearing could clearly hear Hancock reciting.
s things.
At first, he thought Hancock was reciting some mysterious prayer, but after listening carefully, he realized that the contents Hancock was reciting were actually unrelated nonsense, and the power that really allowed him to control the beast actually came from
For his bloodline, it should be a function of the power of his bloodline, and the ritual he performed is just a disguise.
Soon Hancock had complete control over the old long-haired beast, and after letting go of his hand, he could still control the long-haired beast to kneel down, making it easier for Leo to climb on its back.
After Leo climbed on the back of the long-haired beast and sat on a specific seat, Hancock also climbed up and sat in the charioteer's seat. At this time, the people on both sides had also packed the batch of contraband.
, and covered it with a layer of other goods.
After seeing that the preparations were completed, Hancock directed the long-haired beast to walk out of the camp and into the forest. When they walked out of Philoria's storm shielding field and entered the black storm, the long-haired beast
Under Hancock's command, all the long hair on its body was rolled up, wrapping Leo, Hancock and itself in the thick long hair, isolating the wind and snow from the outside.
Although the black storm is very strong and can easily uproot a tree, the weight of the long-haired beast plus the weight of the cargo turned it into a huge rock. The black storm could only deflect it a little.
But it couldn't be blown down, and it was walking steadily in the dark snowfield, facing the blizzard.
The two passengers on the back of the long-haired beast seemed very stable. The rolled-up long hair insulated them from most of the cold and storms outside, and the thick cotton coats prevented them from feeling too much cold.
Leo took advantage of this time to continue sorting and absorbing the books obtained from the Wizard Tower, while Hancock was also carefully sensing the direction, constantly adjusting the mammoth's route to avoid getting lost.
There are obvious differences between the black storm on the snowfield and ordinary storms. For example, its duration is much longer than that of ordinary snowstorms. It takes about a month for a black storm to gradually calm down from the time it blows to the end. However,
The situation of the first black storm is slightly different, because this black storm is more like a warning, warning people who make a living in the snowfield that a stronger black storm is coming, and they must be prepared in advance, so it continues
The time is also very short, only a few days.
Leo and the others walked in the black storm for about three days. The surrounding snowstorm gradually stopped and finally disappeared completely. The sky, which had been dark for several days due to the black storm, also became clear, and there was a faint light at the end of the front.
You can see the shadow of a line of snow-capped mountains, and it seems that the polar mountains should be arriving soon.
For this reason, Hancock, who had become exhausted, drove the equally tired long-haired beast to speed up and rushed towards the blurry snow-capped mountains ahead.
