Chapter 511 Shadow (please subscribe)
In the early morning, large snowflakes kept blowing from the peaks of Mount Turash in a cold wind. The cold wind was fierce, and the sharp roar eroded the mountain range all the time. Perhaps in another hundred years, the altitude of Mount Turash will be greatly reduced, so there is nothing to protect the natural tundra to its west.
Nature is cruel and does not depend on the will of any creature. It only follows the invisible rules and runs according to a set program like a super brain.
However, even if Turash Mountain is flattened due to the erosion of cold storms and snow, resulting in a lower altitude and exposing the western tundra to the cold wind. At the same time, in the face of the threat of cold wind, substances and microorganisms on the tundra will also adjust or evolve suitable models for survival for different environments. This is the greatness of nature. As long as life is endless, you will always find the best way to survive.
Between a peak of Mount Turash, a natural mountain road bends and coils, which is the only way to cross Mount Turash. When this traffic road passes at the top of the peak, a broken fortress can be seen.
The fortress is built with reinforced earth and stone structures. It is very magnificent and occupies almost the whole mountain, like a giant beast lurking between the mountain roads. From the high altitude, you can see the towering forts that fall on the commanding heights of the fortress. The interior of the fortress has not been capped yet. The training square, dormitory, equipment warehouse, material warehouse and other functional buildings have been built, but now the wind and snow are allowed to roar through it. I don't know how many years it has been abandoned.
This is the storm fortress, which is more occupied than the ice wing Marrog even if it can't be completed. But judging from the size of half of the fortress built, it is not difficult to imagine that it will be a majestic military building when it is completed. In fact, in the Green Capital scheme, the storm fortress is designed by a self-sufficient small city. In addition to the functional facilities that have been built inside the fortress, there should also be recyclable units such as water purification machine rooms and wind turbines that have not been built, which has led to the attack of Ice Wing Marrog.
Now, there is a huge gap in the training ground inside the fortress. Looking down from the gap, it is a space like a black hole. It is convenient to inhabit Marrog, a powerful abyss mutant beast. If someone goes into its nest, they will find that part of the space of the fortress has been transformed by ice wings into a suitable environment for sleeping.
It is a country of ice, and the ice crystal columns formed by zero frost form a complex maze. And the ice-wing Marroge perches deep in the maze, where the complex environment and the frost home field all the time make the crusade of Marroge an almost impossible task.
Marrog is still very young, less than ten years after evolving his wisdom and successfully advancing to the abyss-level mutable beast. Therefore, it did not usher in its breeding period like Angel Gulit, so this Warcraft, which perches deep in the storm fortress, is very stingy. After demarcation of their own territory, they are not allowed to live in their own territory.
Of course, for those few lives, as long as they stay for a short time, Marrog does not bother to wake up from a deep sleep to expel or kill these lives. Unless it happens to be during the active period of the ice wing, Marrog doesn't mind cleaning up those guys who stay at his doorstep by the way.
And now, there is still a month before the ice wing wakes up.
So this morning, Bezi, still wearing a long windbreaker, was able to stand unharmed on the edge of the gap between the fortress training ground and watch down. Pederfini stood next to him and looked into the dark abyss below the square. Even the bloody queen couldn't help shivering: "Then it won't be a monster's nest, but looking down like this will make people shudder. I said, this place is too strange.
"Who knows what's in it, or why don't you go down and have a look?" When Bezi squeezed his colleague, his eyes fell on the same red and majestic figure not far away.
Red Grand Duke Merlin!
After the failure of the Mobiston market and the murder of the magician Bane, the Red Grand Duke of Gnia found several people from Betsy. Merlin claimed to know the course of action and was willing to help, so under its leadership, the people arrived at the abandoned fortress before yesterday evening.
Leaving the square, Betsy came to the battery platform where the Red Grand Duke was located. Merlin stood on the fort like a statue, his eyes penetrating a corner of the road, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Betsy coughed dryly and said, "I take the liberty to blame, but for the best. I would like to ask the Dear Grand Duke Red why you are so sure that our goal is to pass through this fortress. You should know that in case they take another route and miss each other, we will waste more time. And now, we don't seem to have any extra time to waste.
Merlin replied in a deep voice, "Because I know Adi Milly, she is a person who doesn't want to take risks, so she will definitely take the route of Storm Fortress. Don't worry about this. If you still have doubts, I'm willing to use the head as a guarantee!"
You are a fish head at most. Betsy said in his heart, but said, "Since you have said so, I naturally have nothing to doubt. But the Grand Duke has done so much for us, but he doesn't know what kind of reward you need?
Merlin turned around like a whirlwind and said word by word, "Kill that black-haired man with golden pupil is the best reward for me!"
"Naturally, there is no problem with this, and our goal is actually this man. It's just that I'm curious about why you are so obsessed with the life of a human being.
"This is my personal matter, and I have no obligation to answer you." Coldly left this sentence, the cloak raised, and Merlin, dressed in bright red armor, turned around and left.
Looking at his back, Bezi pressed his left chest with one hand and bent down and said lightly, "Of course, everyone has privacy, and I respect your secret."
But when he raised his head again, a cold smile appeared on the cowboy's face.
Merlin left the fort and didn't know which corner of the fortress to hide in. Although the Red Grand Duke of Gnia is mixed with Betsy these days, except for the necessary communication, he is usually alone and very lonely. Shortly after May left, Pedphany also came to the fort. She sat down on the stone railing on the edge of the fort and shook her long thrilling legs casually in the void outside the stone railing. Sometimes a cold wind blew by, which made Pedphany's red makeup flutter, like a flame.
The bloody queen took the hair blown by the cold wind and spit out a sentence from her mouth: "I can't believe that fishman."
"I don't believe him either." Betsy put his hands on the stone fence and said lightly, "But this does not prevent us from cooperating with him. Merlin is familiar with the environment here and knows the female fishmen mixed with Zero. In the Red Grand Duke, we can save a lot of energy.
"Do you think the red brick will take action when Zero appears?"
"This can't be judged. But it doesn't matter. Anyway, I didn't count Merlin in our combat strength from the beginning.
Pederfini's face showed anger: "That destroyer is mine. I'm going to tear the woman to pieces and bathe with her blood!"
"Whatever you want, but you'd better suppress it with all your strength at the beginning, otherwise don't cry and beg me to save you." Betsy took out a cigar from his long windbreaker and put it on his mouth, and then stretched out his finger to ignite a flame. Taking a deep breath, the cowboy exhaled a smoke ring, but it was quickly blown away by the wind.
"But with our present strength, is it too thin? In addition to zero, they also have a great swordsman, a destroyer and a martial artist. In addition to these four high-level, there are some annoying bugs. Pederfini frowned.
Betsy bit his cigar and smiled, "I'm glad you think so. You finally learned to think about things instead of using your two extra balls of meat."
Pederfani laughed when she heard the words and deliberately rubbed against the cowboy. She stood up the upturned breasts and rubbed them on Beki's chest and said, "My two balls of meat are sometimes much more useful than my head."
The cowboy reached out and grabbed the queen's chest, and he even used a little flame power. The palm of her hand caught one of Pederfanny's peaks with a faint blue flame. The bloody queen's red dress showed no sign of burning, but the heat fell on the ** buds on her chest. But for Pederfini's physique, such stimulation not only could not make her feel pain, but also gave birth to a strange pleasure, which made her couldn't help moan, and her face blushed like a ripe cherry, delicate.
Becky pinched and rubbed, and his trousers had bulged high, but he still said in a cold voice as if he didn't know the reaction of his body: "Our strength alone is naturally not enough, and Saul followed when he received a message from the adult the day before yesterday. The adult means to solve zero before Saul appears, so I have contacted our reptilian allies. Those reptiles of Kaisers should arrive in the next two days. Let's completely break up with Zero on this mountain.
Pederfini has been made to speot fire by the cowboy's eyes, and she roared like a female beast from her throat: "It doesn't matter so much, let's break it now."
While speaking, Pederfani stretched out her hand to untie Bezi's trousers. But the cowboy grabbed her hand and pushed the bloody queen into the void outside the stone fence. Pedphany suddenly disappeared, and she quickly stretched out her hand to clasped the stone fence and stuck herself against the outer wall of the fortress.
"If you want to do it, go to Denton. His big guy will definitely make you very happy." Betsy blinked at his colleagues mockingly, and then bit his cigar and left without looking at the bloody queen.
Pederfani pulled her hand and jumped onto the stone railing. She screamed at the cowboy's back and said, "Batchy, you [sexually] incompetent guy, don't you even dare to sleep with me? You coward! Coward!"
The bloody queen's hysterical voice hovered over the fortress, which was not enough to vent her anger, so soon there was a loud noise from the fortress. Even the nest inhabited by ice wings kept raising the stone dust from above, which made Marrog couldn't help opening his eyes. But less than half of his eyes were open, and he came tired, so the ice wing yawned and closed his eyes and fell asleep.
It's another night.
The difference is that the zero line has come from the foot of the mountain to halfway up the mountain. This is a ciggy pass, where the team rests. At this moment at night, it is obviously an unwise choice to rush on the road. What's more, they are already very tired, and even Zero feels a little tired. Mount Turash is far more difficult than they thought. Let alone the steep and narrow mountain road, the ground covered with a layer of vertical ice alone makes walking a hardship.
Even the seniors in the team cannot advance quickly in the face of this environment. Others have to lower their center of gravity to maintain a sense of balance in order to move slowly on this frozen mountain road. In some places, there are almost no mountain roads, and the mountain wall is so steep that it is almost vertical to the ground. If there are not many protruding stones on the surface of the mountain wall to climb, the team will have to spend more effort to pass.
At this time, the limitations of the human body are revealed. Except for a few seniors who are easy to walk, other people, including Brown, have almost tortured this difficult mountain road. But fish people walk much more easily, which is not only because they are familiar with the environment, but also because of their special body structure.
But Adimili, who has nearly 90% similarity to the human body, is obviously not so relaxed. Along the way, she had to be taken care of by Baltimore, and in some places, the bodyguard carried her directly. If this special fisherman comes to Tulash Mountain by himself, Ademyri will definitely be buried on this mountain.
At the end of the day, due to the slow speed, the team only came to the halfway up the mountain. However, if you stand on the edge of the cliff and look up, you can see the outline of the storm fortress. At this rate, the team should be able to reach the fortress tomorrow evening. The environment there is much better than halfway up the mountain. At least without waking up the ice wings, the team can set up a tent in the fortress, instead of wrapping themselves in a marching blanket to resist the cold. After all, the uneven geographical environment here is not suitable for camping at all.
Zero stood on the edge of the cliff with his hands behind his back, and his slender body looked so small in the cold wind, as if a gust of wind could blow him off the cliff. But in fact, he plunged into the ground like a nail, no matter how fierce the cold wind was, it could not blow him at all.
Looking at the bottom of the mountain, the earth is dark, like a bottomless abyss. Just like this era, humans, animals and other alien beings have no choice but to live in an abyss called despair. Every day and every moment is fighting for survival. Fight with other lives and your compatriots, even if you want to stain the earth with blood.
If you want to change the status quo, you must cast a glimmer of light on this abyss. What Zero is doing now is looking for the kindling that can bring light. Sometimes he would think that the god who stole fire from the divine world in Greek mythology and brought hope to people will not end well in the end. And what will happen to yourself who is going to do the same thing?
He stretched out his hand and felt the cold wind brushing through his fingers. The answer is like this cold wind. Obviously, you can feel it, but you can't grasp it anyway.
At this time, Zero suddenly felt something and quickly looked at the smooth mountain wall in the distance on the left. There is a long figure sliding over the mountain wall like a gecko and climbing all the way up, disappearing in the sight of zero in a blink of an eye.
What is that? This question flashed through Zero's mind, but this is another question without an answer.
