book of old days

Chapter 99 The Moment of Miracles

The snow was not heavy, and it fell sporadically on his body, adding some white embellishments to the black bearskin coat. However, when he glanced at the leaden sky, Milok's expression sank.

"Ragnar, we may be in trouble, we must find shelter as soon as possible, this snow may fall for a long time!"

Ragnar looked around, seeing the vast snow field in front of him, where could he find shelter.

He gritted his teeth, "Speed ​​up, we must get out of this ice sheet and reach Ace Town as soon as possible, everyone is moving forward at full speed!"

The orders were conveyed one by one, the hunters flicked their whips vigorously, the dogs speeded up, the wind quickly became stronger, and the snow also became heavier. The snow was as heavy as goose feathers covering the sky, and there was only a white patch in sight. In the middle of nowhere, everyone's bearskin hats were covered with icicles.

What's more terrible is the wind. The cold wind blows on the face like a knife, taking away the heat and making people lose their calm. The dogs are barking crazily, struggling in the snow, as if they will be buried in the snow at any time generally.

Sean felt that his eyes were about to freeze. He could only keep using his hands to knock down the ice edges blocking his eyes, trying to hold on to the railing of the sled to keep his balance.

The sound of the wind was like howling ghosts, mixed with strange and inexplicable sounds. Even though his whole body was wrapped in black bear skin, he could still feel the biting cold, which was constantly eroding in.

At that moment, the abnormal fear in his heart was even more frightening than when facing the bloody maw of the hellhound. At least the monster can fight against it, no matter how slim the chance is, at least he can confront it head-on.

However, in the face of the cruelty of nature, Xiao En has no power to resist. The wind keeps blowing and the snow doesn't stop. All he can do is grit his teeth and persevere.

No, it can't go on like this.

Looking at the surrounding whiteness, he couldn't even tell the direction, Xiao En knew that if he continued to run, there would only be a dead end.

"Come closer, come closer! Don't run around!"

He shouted, but his voice was completely covered by the wind.

Shaun gritted his teeth, flicked his whip violently, and stopped in front of the sled team in an arc. The two sleds that hadn't stopped in time collided with each other, and immediately turned over.

"We can't go on like this, or we'll run away." He shouted loudly, and the sledges behind stopped one after another.

In fact, they have already run away, and the team is obviously missing a few people.

"Is there anything you can do?" Ragnar also lost his composure, as the devil really couldn't hear him.

"Yes, but it could be dangerous."

As Sean said, he directly took out two barrels of kerosene from his pocket. This was specially prepared for this adventure. It was used to summon a big guy. It was originally prepared to deal with the enemies that might be encountered in the temple of the gods. .

But now I can't manage that much anymore.

Although Ragnar already knew his ability to conjure things out of thin air, he was still taken aback when he saw two large barrels of kerosene popping out of thin air, and the others were even more confused, but this magical operation at this time It also gave them some confidence.

Xiao En asked everyone to clear the snow on the ground to make a hole, and then began to pour kerosene into it. Two barrels of kerosene went down, and a flame ignited in his hands, and he raised his hand to ignite the kerosene directly, and the huge flame shot up into the sky As soon as he got up, the surrounding snow was melted in an instant, and two barrels of kerosene were enough to ignite a large flame in the snowstorm. Everyone hurriedly gathered together, cherishing the rare heat to warm up and down.

"It's an amazing method, but I'm afraid this flame won't last long." Milok said.

Sean nodded, "The flame is just a medium, the real show is about to begin, everyone should disperse."

As he spoke, he took out the Book of the Old from his pocket, and turned to one of the pages. On the illustrated book was a face hidden in the rising flames—the Spirit of Flame.

This is an elemental creature that lives in the realm of elements. Its body is made of flames, and there is an elemental core that continuously releases heat. Its shape cannot be analyzed by the laws of physics. According to the book, the spirit of fire is the domain of the fire element. They will constantly release flames and heat, which is what Xiao En and the others need most at the moment.

Flame spirits have no way to control and communicate. They usually don't care about the creatures around them. In the eyes of flame spirits, things are only divided into combustible and non-combustible. The former is the nourishment for expanding the flame field, while the latter is what needs Clear rubbish.

But as the book says, as long as it is summoned under the right conditions, it can also produce magical effects.

The summoning conditions are not too complicated, [with the realm of flames, use the scarlet stone as a guide, and use the burning heart as a sacrifice to summon the spirit of flames from the realm of elements. 】

In fact, Sean wasn't completely sure. The Flame Field was relatively simple, just set a big fire on it, but now that the snowstorm is blowing, the flames ignited by two barrels of kerosene are not that big to be honest. It's hard to say that such a flame Not counting on the 'field of fire'.

The scarlet stone Sean guessed that it should refer to red stones, rubies or red crystals. He chose a ruby ​​from the gems knocked out of the broken crown as the scarlet stone.

What troubled him the most was the fiery heart. The most feared thing in the summoning conditions was this kind of ambiguous description. Does the fiery heart refer to the fiery heart, or literally, the scorching hot heart?
If it's the latter, it's easy to do, just kill a dog and dig out a heart, but if it's the former, it's troublesome, who knows how to judge the heat.

On the whole, he felt that the probability of successfully summoning the spirit of fire was not very high.

But at this time, he had no other better way than to take a gamble, so he directly dragged a sled dog over—of course not his dog.

He took out a dagger and gestured at Gouzi's chest. Gouzi seemed to have sensed something and looked at him with flattering eyes. Sean softened - handed the knife to Wilson, "put The dog's heart is dug out."

Wilson was straightforward. He stabbed the dog to death with one stab, and dug out the dog's heart in two or three strokes.

Xiao En said in his heart that he was sorry for the dog. He took the fiery heart, cut it open with a knife, embedded the ruby ​​in it, and then held the heart in his left hand and the book of the old days in his right hand and recited a spell.

"Immortal existence from the realm of elements."

"A flaming shell, a fiery soul, a burning will, an immortal elemental spirit."

"I guide you with the scarlet stone, I summon you with my fiery heart, and I welcome you with the realm of flames."

"In my 'Wizard John' name."

"I summon you to come into this world!"

He yelled, throwing his heart violently into the fire.

Sean looked at the heart in flames expectantly, waiting for a miracle to happen, but nothing happened. The heart was scorching in the fire, gradually becoming charred, and finally turned into a hot black coal—the air There was a smell of barbecue.

Everyone looked at him eagerly, thinking what a miracle, why didn't he show up?
Sean's heart sank.

It's over, I didn't expect that something went wrong at this time, does it really need a "hot heart"?How to make this thing, who is more enthusiastic?

Or is it that the fire is too small to meet the standards of the Flame Domain?
