Chapter 66: Damn, they're here to snatch the loot

[You have a new private message!]Just as Alex was about to take off on Ice Cream, she saw the system notification and quickly opened it.

[QuartzStriker]: "Big Shot, ten thousand pieces of equipment are refined and sent to you!"

That was quick.

Alex thought she'd have to wait until midnight, but she was outside now and couldn't access the trading post until she got back.

[Hamburger]: "OK, I'm outside now, I'll list them when I get back to the castle."

Sophie couldn't imagine why Alex would be out of the castle late at night.

Do all the Big Shots level up by battling monsters at night? The gap is indeed big...

Even though there were no dangers near Sophie's castle at night, the timid her dared not step out.

The night's double attributes were for those Lords with courage, strength, and opportunity.

But Sophie was overthinking it; Alex was only out because she had left in the afternoon and got delayed until evening.

"Let's go."

Ice Cream took off instantly with Alex, and the gargoyle and bone dragon also took flight, leaving some undead on the ground to pick up materials as they headed deep into the snowy mountains.

The blizzard at night grew fiercer, and Alex, in the air, could barely open her eyes due to the storm, trying her best to lie close to Ice Cream to minimize wind resistance.

There was no moonlight over the snowy mountains, and it was pitch black all around; Alex couldn't see anything.

Fortunately, the reflection from the snow gave her some visibility.

Lying on Ice Cream's back, Alex turned her head slightly downwards as they flew over a snowy mountain, and she saw a monster on the peak with eyes glowing red.

Because of the glowing eyes, Alex could only make out that it was a pair of eyes, but unlike Ice Cream, the undead could see clearly at night, unaffected by the darkness, and even in this weather, Ice Cream's vision was enhanced.

"What is that?"

Alex knew Ice Cream must have seen the figure; this was its home, no one knew this place better.

"Frost Sprite, a creature that only appears at night, wandering inside the snowy mountains, not very intelligent."

Ice Cream didn't seem too worried about it, so Alex didn't ask further.

These snowy mountains were not only full of dangers, but the harsh weather was also not something ordinary creatures could withstand.

Alex just quietly lay on Ice Cream's back, waiting to reach their destination.

Ice Cream flew faster than Arthur, and with its attributes already higher than Arthur and the other bone dragons, plus the attribute boost from being in the snowy mountains, its speed was extremely fast.

To hasten their journey, Alex had Ice Cream leave the other undead behind, with only Arthur following close by.

Otherwise, waiting for the gargoyle to catch up while flying would be too slow and torturous.

Two dragon shadows, one large and one small, sped through the dark sky above the snowy mountains.

Even flying at such a high speed, it still took over two hours, showing just how vast these snowy mountains were.

During the flight, Alex kept an eye on the system time, and it was now approaching 9 PM.

As Ice Cream slowed down, Alex knew they were finally about to arrive.

After two hours of flying, they could finally land.

"Master, there are people below."

Ice Cream immediately spotted several figures moving below, searching through the snow for werewolf corpses.

The frozen werewolf corpses they found were set aside, seemingly ready to be transported away. МᏙᒪƎМƤΥЯ.ϽӨƜ

How could a frail human lift a werewolf corpse with one hand? This was beyond Ice Cream's understanding of humans.

Alex was stunned to hear this; in such harsh weather, there were still people competing with her for corpses?

"Holy Court knights?"

If they were Holy Court knights, Alex would have no choice but to retreat, as they were dozens of Commanding, and she couldn't possibly win against them.

"No, they are humans but also not quite humans; I've never seen them on the snowy mountains before."

With that, Alex understood.

Damn, they're here to snatch the loot!

"Arthur, go!"

Alex immediately commanded Arthur to test the strength of the opponents; after all, Arthur couldn't be killed.

On the snowy ground below, the leader, a man dressed in a black tailcoat, looked like a polite gentleman.

The man directed others to search for werewolf corpses in the snow; they were far from the depths of the snowy mountains but had arrived earlier than Alex.

The frozen werewolf corpses had already been transported back by the man, valuable items for them, which is why the man risked coming deep into the snowy mountains.

The man's keen senses detected an unusual sound in the air, and looking up, he saw a huge bone dragon descending from the sky.

The man instantly dodged, turning into a black shadow.

The huge noise caused by Arthur's landing startled the surrounding figures, who all turned to look and, upon realizing it was an enemy, all transformed into shadows and attacked Arthur simultaneously.

Only the man stood calmly at the back, watching everything unfold.

Roar!

Arthur let out a roar carrying the Dragon's Presence, a massive breath of dragon that swept away the surrounding snow and snowflakes in an instant.

A few unlucky ones couldn't dodge in time and were hit by Arthur's breath of dragon, their souls instantly extinguished.

Yet many figures managed to reach Arthur and attacked him with sharp black claws.

Arthur's defense was already formidable, and after being fully enhanced at the Blackwater Altar, these people couldn't even break through his defenses.

Not to mention killing Arthur, they couldn't even scatter his bones.

"Commanding level bone dragon."

The man quickly assessed Arthur's strength. His own Commanding level troops had gone to escort the werewolf corpses and were not here now.

How could there be a bone dragon, an undead creature, in the snowy mountains?

This must be one of some Lord's troops, the first time the man had encountered an undead creature.

The man looked around; his night vision was limited, but he could still vaguely see a blue figure high in the sky.

The man was confident in his own strength. To kill an undead, one needed a soul attack, but he currently lacked such skills.

However, there was a quicker way – to kill its Lord. The man had a feeling that the Lord must be on that blue figure.

The man turned into a shadow and flew up directly.

"It's the frost dragon from the snowy mountains!"

The man saw the blue figure clearly, and also saw Alex on Ice Cream's back.

Dressed in a black short skirt suit, with blue eyes and white hair.

Definitely a Lord, the clothes completely out of this world were proof enough.

Although the man didn't know why a frost dragon would appear here with this human Lord, this frost dragon was smaller than the bone dragon and its strength couldn't possibly exceed Commanding level.
