Chapter 45

In the middle of the night, gelkat sat by the campfire and examined the arm cut off by herself. It can be said that the whole arm has been eroded by the huge force of water element, and part of the muscle tissue above has been transformed into crystals. If this arm is taken to the sage tower, I believe it will arouse the enthusiasm of a large group of mages and scholars

Suddenly, in the quiet night, in addition to the whistling of wind and snow, there were several more groans, and the sound came from the sleeping bag in front of laizhigelkate.

After hearing the sound, gerkate quickly wrapped the girl's arm with cloth, got up and walked a few steps to the sleeping bag and asked, "what's the matter? Is she awake?"

Maggie moved her body, hugged the girl, showed her small face from her sleeping bag and said, "she hasn't woken up yet. She seems to be talking in her sleep."

"Very good." Gerkate nodded reassuringly and said, "that at least means she's much better."

"Just now I heard a name named Gretel or karette appear in her words, and call this name teacher. Do you have any impression?" Maggie looked at gerkate and said.

Gretel? Karet? In my mind, gerkate clenched her fist, gently slapped her palm and said, "Oh! By the way, I remember, it seems that the royal court mage of Saxony is Gretel."

"Court mage?" Marge was a little surprised and said, "just say this girl."

Gerkate approached the sleeping bag, squatted down and looked at the sleeping face of the blue girl and said, "since Gretel, a student of the royal court mage of the Saxony Kingdom, appears in the forest of fog, that is to say \

"Did they enter the forest to investigate the heavy snow?"

"Well, it should be like this. After all, the snowstorm in the misty forest stops every summer, but it seems very abnormal this year. The snow doesn't stop in summer."

"Really?" Maggie, look

Gerkate picked up a branch on one side and threw it into the campfire: "sleep at ease. I'm responsible for the vigil tonight."

In the black dream, leilis runs on the endless snow field. The ground is full of corpses frozen in ice crystals. The only purpose of running fast is to bring the news out of the fog. On the way of running, leilis suddenly falls to the ground, Covering her head in pain, leilis suddenly felt something entangled her feet. Looking back, she almost stopped her heartbeat. A dry and snowy hand was seizing her feet. Then a figure slowly arched in the snow, like a dead spirit crawling out of the grave.

"Master ADIS!" Looking at the face that became like a corpse, leilis recognized ADIS, the fire mage who was holding her.

"Help me, Riley. It's so painful. Help me, Riley!" Opening his mouth seemed to be a desperate voice after endless torture, ADIS said with blank eyes.

no Leilis stared at the terrible scene in front of her, and at this time, more arms stretched out to the ground and grabbed leilis's body.

Ah ah!! Riley screamed loudly and watched countless people climb out of the snow supporting their bodies.

"Help me, it's so cold! It's so painful! Help me!"

Damir was covered with ice crystals, his legs had been broken, and his eyes were empty, but he was slowly climbing towards the immovable rilis.

"No! Don't come here! Let go of me!" The terrible scene in front of Riley closed her eyes and screamed wildly, but her body firmly grasped by countless arms could not move.

"Riley Safire!"

The familiar voice startled leilis. She unconsciously opened her glasses. Leilis saw a familiar but terrible face. At this time, her mentor Gretel looked at herself face to face. The pale face frozen by ice and snow had begun to rot, and now Gretel was no longer caring for leilis like her father, In this distorted face of the dead in the depths of hell, there is only endless anger and hatred!

"Mr. Gretel" leilis looked at the teacher in front of her with beautiful eyes, and her whole body trembled.

"Why did you leave me, Riley? Why did you leave me and run away alone!!" Gretel seemed to have lost her mind. Her dry hands pinched her neck and screamed, "why did you leave me, why didn't you die, why?"

┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉

"No! No! No! No!" In the scream, leilis suddenly woke up. It was dark in front of her eyes, as if something was pressing herself. Leilis, who thought she had not escaped from her dream, struggled frantically

"No! Let me go! No! Let me go!"

Maggie, who was suddenly woken up, was flustered by the struggling leilis before she recovered. While trying to hold leilis down, Maggie shouted to gelkate not far away: "she's awake. She's awake. She's awake."

Gerkate hurriedly ran over and looked at the excited leilis, quickly helped Maggie hold her down and said, "don't get excited! Don't get excited! You're safe now!"

Every senior mercenary kept alert during sleep. The noise of Riley soon woke up all the mercenaries. The mercenary who got up quickly lit a torch and came to gerkate.

Kongwu's powerful gelkate and Maggie quickly subdued the emotional leilis. Maggie leaned leilis, who had stopped yelling, against her chest and looked at the girl's breath and eyes. It seemed that she had not fully awakened from the nightmare, Maggie sat up, hugged Riley, gently stroked her back and said, "don't be nervous, don't be nervous, you're safe now, don't be nervous, trust me, you're safe."

Looking at the gradually calming leilis, gelkat glanced at the mercenaries who were staring at the two beautiful women hugging each other and shouted, "have you seen enough, you bastards? You want to be beaten if you don't go and burn some hot water for me?"

A moment later, leilis put on the robes and windbreaker that were dried by the mercenaries. Unaccustomed, she borrowed a kettle with one hand and drank. Leilis felt that just finishing these actions would almost make her whole body weak. It's no wonder that without rest and sleep for two consecutive days, coupled with fatigue and fainting in the snow, it was lucky to meet these mercenaries that leilis escaped from the palm of death. The violent struggle when she was awake almost consumed her little physical strength in an instant.

After calming down, leilis had to face the reality that her right arm was cut off by the man in front of her. According to him, if she didn't do so, her life might be in danger. Leilis didn't show too much sadness about this. After all, she had already felt the strange frostbite on her arm spreading upward all the way, Several times I had the intention to cut off my right arm, but I just didn't have the right tool in my hand.

"Miss Riley, are you sure you really want to get out in such a hurry and don't have more rest?"

Maggie sat beside Riley and asked softly. After the sorceress named Riley woke up and calmed down, she talked for a while. She panicked and hoped that the mercenary regiment would take herself back to belika fortress immediately, and promised to give the mercenary regiment a generous reward after returning to the fortress. Although it was very dangerous to march in the forest at night, not to mention the heavy wind and snow hanging at the moment, and it was strange that the leader agreed at once, Maggie always felt a little strange.

"Thank you for your kindness, Miss Maggie, but the situation is too critical. I must report back to the fortress immediately."

After putting down the kettle, leilis said to Maggie. After calming down and taking a short rest, leilis immediately remembered the teacher's last advice and hurriedly asked the mercenary group to take him back to the fortress. At first, the mercenaries were naturally surprised and tried to persuade themselves to go out at dawn on the grounds that it was dangerous to march at night, Leilis kept persuading them and even promised to give them a generous reward when they returned to the fortress, but it didn't seem to work until their leader, who looked quite young, asked him why he was in a hurry. Naturally, leilis couldn't tell what happened in the yarnod mountains, Finally, relys lied that her team was sent into the forest by belika fortress to investigate the snowstorm. On the way, she suddenly met the army of Ogg barbarians. Under the cover of her companions, she managed to escape back alone. Now the tense is urgent and she must report back to the fortress immediately.

Fortunately, when she mentioned the Ogg barbarian army, the mercenaries were frightened at once. Leilis was worried that the silver elves would catch up. In addition, she saw that these mercenaries already knew that the wind and snow in the misty forest did not stop this summer, so she could not ignore some secrets and continued to tell them. Because the wind and snow did not stop last year, the Saxon kingdom did not send troops to belika fortress, If the ogre army raids the fortress through the forest, the whole fortress may fall and make big 6 subject to the second massive invasion by the ogre barbarians.

Leilis was relieved that their leader seemed to know something about the big 6 situation. Knowing the seriousness of the situation, he quickly commanded the mercenaries to pack up materials and prepare them.

Gerkate turned over and rode on the horse and said to Maggie, "Maggie, can you let Riley ride the same horse with you later?"

"Of course." Maggie stood on the ground and looked up at her leader, gerkate. She seemed to be a little uneasy and asked, "I take the liberty to say, do you really believe what Riley said? Naxi about the invasion of ogue barbarians."

Gerkate looked around, buried her head and whispered in Maggie's ear, "I don't believe it at all! The story about Ogg's barbarian army is just a lie she made up."

Eh!? Maggie was confused: "how did you see that?"

"In her dream, leilis mentioned her teacher, Gretel, the royal court mage of Saxony Kingdom, and the word 'run away', indicating that she should join the investigation team with her teacher." Speaking of this, gelkat sold a pass, In Maggie's eager eyes, she continued to whisper: "I still have some impression about the court mage Gretel of Saxony kingdom. He is a high-level mage of level 16, and also a student of Faron, the great mage of the tower of sages. Even if there are many ogerman with low IQ, even his student, a mage of level 13, can run away. I don't think Gretel, as a high-level mage of level 16, can't escape. That's absolute It will be a disgrace among mages! "

"Maybe her teacher ran the other way"

"It's impossible. Mages and mages have their own unique contact methods, not to mention that Gretel and leilis are still teachers and students. Even if they run away with the transmission array, they can find each other. It's impossible that leilis will faint in the snow alone."

"Then why do you believe her?"

"I said Maggie, leilis was anxious to return to belika fortress and lied to us. Maybe it was because there were some secrets we couldn't tell. As for what secrets we couldn't control as mercenaries. But at least one thing she didn't deceive us was that there must be something terrible chasing her behind her, which made her afraid to rest for a moment. Think about it. Even a 16 The unknown enemy that level 13 mages can't escape also makes a level 13 mage run away in such a panic. Do you want to stay in place and see what the other party is? "

The dark forest around kept hanging wind and snow. The roaring wind drove the trembling sound of the branches. Coupled with gelkate's deliberate low tone, Maggie immediately shivered and involuntarily thought of some unknown stories about the ancient forest in her mind. She swallowed her saliva and nodded quickly and said, "I understand the collar, we'll get out right away."

A team of more than ten mercenaries walked in the dark forest with torches. A scout who was good at investigation drove ahead and rode on the same horse with Riley. Maggie walked in the middle of the team, while gerkate, as the leader, bravely asked for a tail. Although he felt strange, no mercenary dared to resist his orders, The progress of the people along the way was quite fast.

As gerkate expected, in the high altitude behind the mercenary team, five huge high-level element biological ice crystal falcons were stirring their wings, raising an unknown cold, flying to a fuzzy mark point day and night. The huge claws formed by ice crystals are swinging restlessly, ready to freeze and tear up the prey that is trying to escape
