Chapter 25

"I don't think I know my mission." after taking the sheepskin roll, kukas shrugged his shoulders indifferently and said, "hang all the enemies? Investigate their situation? Or selectively kill some enemies? I don't know. I'm afraid some accidents will easily occur when performing the mission, which may bring great trouble to the mission of the whole team."

"Well, I think it's necessary for you to tell the mage there what you think. She knows more than I do. Maybe she can tell you how to be a forward walking on the barren ice field." the officer smiled at the speech. He showed the black robed mage near the carriage without paying attention and motioned kukas to ask there.

"Is she the commander of this team?" kukas frowned slightly. He didn't want to deal with the mages. Especially after the interception of the mysterious mage, he had a feeling of uncertainty about the mages.

"Hmm! Maybe in a sense! If I don't know something, she will understand. You should know that professionals like mages in the military headquarters always receive some preferential treatment, and their power will be a little bigger." the officer said here, with an embarrassed face. Fortunately, kukas didn't continue to ask, which made him secretly relieved.

Kukas nodded. He pulled down his visor and covered his face. After holding the ox horn and axe hard, he ran near the carriage.

There were dozens of professionals around the carriage, including three or five mages, which made kukas don't know which to ask for a moment. Fortunately, at this time, a professional found him. After questioning his intention, he took him to a petite black robed mage.

"What's the matter with you, squire!" a crisp voice came from under the black robe. The voice heard in kukas's ear, making him feel inexplicably relaxed.

"Dear mage, I was appointed as the forward of the team, but I don't know which direction to go after arriving at the barren ice field, let alone what to do when facing the enemy." kukas jumped down from the horse quickly. Although he was wearing heavy armor, he still performed a knight and squire etiquette to show his respect for the mage.

Silence, after waiting for seven or eight breathing times, the black robed female mage made a sound. "How did you face the enemy before? Tell me the truth, squire!"

"Everything in front of us must be recognized and killed completely, and there will never be a semi soft breakup." kukas opened his mouth and answered the black robed mage's question without any hesitation. "Even if I am a professional in front of me, I will not have fear and retreat."

"Seriously?"

"Yes." kukas nodded forcefully. He was dissatisfied with the tone of the black robed mage, but he knew that he and the other party were not at the same level now. He had to suppress all his dissatisfaction at the bottom of his heart. He has lived in this world for almost 20 years. He knows that the strong need respect. Even if the other party is arrogant and rampant, as long as he is stronger than himself and doesn't want to die, he must give enough respect to the other party.

"Go! Follow the route on the map to explore the way. Except for some places marked on the map, people you meet anywhere else are your enemies. You know how to deal with these enemies." the crisp voice came out from under the black robe again. This time, it came with a white and tender hand.

The little hand was small and white. With kukas's eyesight, he could even see the direction of the blood vessels on the back of the hand. Holding a silver sheepskin roll in his little hand, the sheepskin roll depicts their march route this time.

Reaching out to pick up the sheepskin roll, I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional. After giving the sheepskin roll to kukas, the black robed mage suddenly tapped kukas's gloves with his fingertips, and then quickly retracted into the black robe and disappeared.

"You go down! I think you'd better get familiar with the map as soon as possible, and we'll start soon." the crisp voice of the black robed mage sounded again. Although she couldn't see her face, kukas imagined in his mind what kind of small mouth the other party was before he said such words.

"As you wish, Reverend mage," kukas said politely again. After secretly looking at the central carriage, he jumped on the war horse as fast as possible and was ready to choose his own hand.

Selecting his men may be difficult for ordinary people, but for kukas, it's nothing at all. He quickly controlled the horses to swim among the cavalry, and carefully felt the bloody smell from them. Whenever he found a strong smell of blood, he would pick them out. Finally, from among these cavalry, he selected a hundred bloody soldiers to serve as his own men.

The vanguard team was composed of the elite of the whole army. Although kukas's selection brought a little trouble to the whole cavalry team, the officers didn't care. Although kukas had mixed with the army before, he was not familiar with the way. Therefore, this random selection was formed in such a muddle headed way.

After the team was selected, they got enough supplies at the Quartermaster's office, and then kukas led the team on the journey.

It is only a short distance of more than ten days from the barren ice field, and kukas and his team must set foot on the barren ice field within ten days, so he had to start in such a hurry.

Every cavalry carried food for ten days. As for where to get food after ten days, the people of the military headquarters didn't tell them, and kukas didn't know. He just knew that he must arrive at the barren ice field within ten days according to the order.

"Everybody, I think we're going to start. I hope most of you can come back from the barren ice field with me." kukas took off his helmet and showed his scarred face with a ferocious roar. "Under my leadership, I hope you will act in full accordance with my orders. What I need is soldiers who can kill, not soldiers who resist my orders. Do you understand?" during his speech, he waved an ox horn Tomahawk and chopped into the air several times to frighten the cavalry.

"Follow your orders together." a hundred cavalry shouted. Most of them were soldiers from castu area. They knew what ox horn Tomahawk meant, so they didn't hesitate. They all subconsciously chose to obey.

"Let's go!" with a command, a hundred cavalry set out. Kukas's horse ran ahead, and the other cavalry followed in an arrow.

"This squire is very interesting, but I don't know if he can come out of the barren ice field alive." after kukas and them left, the black robed mage beside the carriage suddenly sighed and whispered to a priest wearing white robes nearby.

The priest was also wrapped in a robe, but her robe was white. "I think he should be able to do it. His strong body, full of blood and cruel training in the military camp are all the capital for him to survive. Moreover, I heard that he also took the pill to suppress fighting spirit. If he was an ordinary person, there would be his courage?" the white robed priestess smiled a few times and whispered her opinion in the mage's ear.

Not to mention how these professionals discuss in private and how they travel leisurely, just kukas, a hundred man cavalry.

The journey of more than ten days was forcibly compressed to ten days by them. Along the way, people spent all their time on horseback, except when necessary to let the war horses rest and eat.

The closer it is to the barren ice field, the colder it will be. The snow on the ground gradually increased, and some plants and animals common in the South began to decrease sharply. Instead, there are a lot of snow moss and a small amount of needle pointed shrubs.

A small number of ice creatures run at a uniform speed in the thick snow. After discovering their prey, they rush up at an incredible speed, throw the prey to the ground, and then tear it into pieces and swallow it into their stomach.

A group of snow deer leisurely searched for their food in the snow. Delicious snow moss was torn from the stones exposed on the ground and swallowed into their stomach. Not far from them, there are three or five old snow wolves circling around.

While carefully observing the old wolves, the snow deer leader lowered his head to eat quickly. Every time he ate one or two bites, he would quickly check the location of a snow wolf. If they were too close to his people, he would hiss and let the people go farther.

Although the old snow wolves are hungry and thirsty, they still stare at the delicious food. They believe that even the most cautious people will inadvertently make mistakes. As long as they can catch each other's mistake, they are the winners.

As time went by, just halfway through the meal, a dull sound of horse hoofs came from a distance.

The rapid and dull sound of horses' hoofs made the two ice sheet creatures instantly alert. They quickly turned their ears and twitched their nostrils to know the direction of the sound.

For a time, all the snow deer stopped eating, and they looked in the direction of the sound of horseshoes. The ears are turning faster. The old wolves bent down and hid in the snow to prepare for the coming unknown.

The dull voice came closer and closer, and the cavalry appeared in the restaurant of the snow deer.

At the front of the cavalry was a tall cavalry, wrapped in heavy armor, revealing only a big, scarred bald head. A fierce light wandered in his eyes, as if all the creatures in front of him were his enemies.

"Everybody, there is food. Get your javelin ready and disperse the team." the tall cavalry led by them shouted loudly. Although the cold wind might pour into his stomach, he shouted loudly.
