Mithril Throne of Forgotten Realms

Fang Yi tightly tightened the fur cap on his head to keep out the biting cold wind, then quickly rubbed his hands a few times to get rid of the ice smears on the gloves, and couldn't help cursing this Pit father's ghost weather:

Grandma, is this the rhythm of freezing to death?

Complaints are nothing but complaints, Fang Yi rested for a while, picked up the wooden shovel in hand and continued to swing it quickly, the snow under his feet was quickly cleared into a big pit seven feet square, revealing a thick layer of fallen leaves, and There is a hard ground that has been frozen for a long time.

Contrary to Fang Yizheng, who was profusely sweating, Ji Feng on the side seemed extremely excited - jumping up and down in the snow more than two feet deep, against the background of the snow, his blue and white body was like a beautiful elf.

Occasionally, the monsoon plunges into the snow and travels under the snow like a large mole.In the end, he got his big head halfway out of the snow, blinked his two big black eyes, and looked at Fang Yi who was working hard, his expression seemed to say: I encourage you mentally~

Since Fang Yi has been driving experience sharing, Monsoon is now at level 24, and the cold resistance has reached an astonishing 30 points. Coupled with its thick fur, this temperature is not considered by Monsoon at all. Nothing~

"You unlucky boy, I will ask you to pull the sled for me tomorrow!" Fang Yi lifted a large chunk of frozen solid snow, pointed at Ji Feng and cursed angrily.

At the thought of trekking in such a place for several days, Fang Yi's complaints continued like a torrential river.

Winter in Faerûn is much colder than it actually is, especially after it snows.Players must wear a thick coat to keep warm when they venture out, otherwise the icy cold wind will make you unable to hold a weapon steadily, let alone fight.

According to the clues provided by Kratos, the scroll in Fang Yi's hand is closely related to the seal-cutting craft of the alpine centaurs, so for Fang Yi, this expedition to the Gusmer Forest is imperative.

As for the specific location of the alpine centaur, Fang Yi only knew a rough idea, but he didn't have to worry about getting lost.Because as long as you go upstream along the Shanmu River, you can directly reach the deepest part of the forest—looking for traces of intelligent life activities near the water source is a method that every adventurer knows.

certainly.Preparations before departure are essential.

It cost more than 2000 gold coins.Fang Yi bought a map of the forest in the southwest of Xueshan City at the auction house. Although it was quite rough, he could roughly distinguish the distribution area of ​​monsters and avoid those high-level monsters.You can save a lot of time smoothly.

before departure.Sword Twenty Thirteen also invited Fang Yi several times to participate in the land reclamation of the "Dwarf Rune Bunker".They were all rejected by Fang Yi.Although Cyan Heaven has already killed the No. 3 boss, the tragic process is really frightening.

Fang Yi conservatively estimated that the next No. 4 boss would have to try dozens of times.Fang Yi didn't want to waste time on that.

Xia Yi has been walking in this forest for three days now.Except for a few small packs of wolves, I didn't encounter any difficult monsters. It's just that the weather is getting colder and colder, making Fang Yi, who is experiencing this kind of climate in the game for the first time, a little uncomfortable.

Soon, Fang Yi dug out an open space, took out the tent from his backpack and set it up, cleared a piece of ground in front of the tent, and lit a bonfire.Ji Feng, who had been playing on the sidelines, reacted very quickly. After a few vertical leaps, he came to the fire, plunged into the tent, and huddled together with Fang Yi who was sitting in front of the campfire to keep warm.

The forest is as quiet as ever, and the snow-capped world in front of you is like a high-resolution photo. Occasionally, the sound of tree trunks being crushed by snow comes from the depths of the forest, which makes people feel that this is the real world. .

This map is rarely visited by players, and Fang Yi originally had the luck to find one or two treasure chests, but the facts have proved that Fang Yi does not have such a life for nothing.

It was getting dark earlier than before, Fang Yi added another handful of firewood to the bonfire, and fell asleep relying on Monsoon's soft and comfortable belly.

I have to go on my way tomorrow. In this ice and snow world, if I can’t take a good rest, I’m pushing myself into a dangerous situation~

***

In the middle of the night, the crescent moon cast an extremely limited light, and the snow-covered ground looked like a huge fluorescent stone, making the forest that was supposed to be as dark as ink white and faint, and the surrounding giant trees could be vaguely seen projection.

But if you look closer, you will find several gray-white figures silently moving forward on the snow that is flat as sand, and what is strange is that these blurred figures are only left behind on the snow. Pairs of shallow footprints, as if they have no weight in themselves.

The leading figure made a gesture, and the group of people fanned out immediately, forming an encircling circle and moving forward like a big net.

However, these people obviously didn't notice that there was a small tent hidden in the snow not far in front of them. The branches on the tent and the scattered snow particles gave the tent a good cover. Avoided the detection of these people.

"Ouch!"

Suddenly, there was a scream in the silent forest. Although the person who made the sound could lower his voice, but in a quiet environment, such a scream suddenly came, like a lice on a bald head-how much it takes How conspicuous it is.

At the same time as this cry of pain sounded, a body that was seven or eight feet long jumped up from the snow in front of everyone!The movement of this figure was as fast as lightning, and before everyone could react, it had already rushed out for more than 20 feet, and disappeared into the woods after turning around.

"Chase! Don't let it get away!"

Seeing this scene, the people lying on the snow couldn't help but panic, and they couldn't care less about hiding their figures. They all ran towards the fleeing cheetah one by one like a cheetah smelling fishy. At the same time, the sound of bowstring trembling and feathered arrows piercing the air resounded.

Two seconds later, the snow had returned to calm, but it was only temporarily.

It didn't take long before the people who were chasing the prey came back, but at this time, they had already lit the torches in their hands, and they were all downcast, trampling the snow under their feet until it creaked, obviously they couldn't catch it. to prey.

At this time, by the light of the torches, the appearance of this group of hunters can already be seen clearly—this is a group of players, all dressed in animal skins, and wearing lightweight and extremely warm deerskin boots. All well equipped.Moreover, most of these people are rangers, especially the leader of a strong elf, whose twisted wooden longbow in his hand is almost as tall as Fang Yi.

"Damn... who yelled just now?" The strong elf spat, and said viciously with a long stream of mist coming out of his mouth.

"It's me... It seems that there is a hunter's trap, I got caught..." Someone in the crowd immediately raised their hands, and replied nonchalantly.

"Ah? Funny, why are there traps here? Are there hunting npcs nearby?"

"Could it be that you stepped on a branch?"

As they walked back, they discussed each other with each other, obviously they didn't believe this kind of rhetoric, and soon came to the place where they were ambushed just now.But after seeing the scene on the snow in front of me clearly, I just looked at me and I looked at you, and I was speechless.

What a trap.

On the snow is a not-so-deep footprint stepped on by the player before, and there are still bloodstains on the snow.A ferocious metal animal trap was stuck obliquely in the snow. The metal serrations on it were as long as a thumb and gleamed coldly. Just looking at it made people feel nervous.

Moreover, this trap was not directly placed on the snow, but was carefully buried under the surface of the snow, which is usually invisible. a thing.

The eyelids of the human ranger in the lead twitched, he let out a long sigh of relief, let out the depression in his heart, and quickly gave the order, "...There must be someone nearby, go search! Pay attention to your feet, there must be traps around!"

***

Fang Yi who was sleeping was woken up by hunger.

These days he has been on the road in the field, relatively speaking, Fang Yi has very little time off the assembly line, and has already forgotten about eating.

Let Ji Feng take a look around the camp and see that there is no danger, so Fang Yi took the time to go offline and have a meal

Before nightfall, Fang Yi asked Ji Feng to help him bury a dozen traps in the snow around the camp.These gizmos were all handcrafted when they contacted blacksmith skills, and they just came in handy at this time.

However, although it is for practice and play, the materials of these traps are enough to make most similar products eclipse. They are all high-quality ores left over from practicing skills. In terms of sharpness alone, they are no better than some sophisticated weapons or even purple weapons. Difference.

But when he went online again, the first sound Fang Yi heard was Ji Feng's warning sound.

Have an enemy?

Fang Yi casually hung the Three Treasures of Thieves on himself, and listened carefully to the movement outside the tent: Indeed, the creaking sound of being trampled on the snow came in faintly, listening to the sound, there were quite a lot of things outside~

While smearing poison on the weapon, Fang Yi was still thinking: I have already killed the wolves around here, so it is impossible to come here again to make trouble?Doesn't it sound like a big beast?

Gently lifted the thick cloth curtain on one side of the tent, Fang Yi looked out through the gap, unexpectedly, it would be better not to look, Fang Yi was startled immediately by this look:

Not far from the tent, a few rangers were bending their bows and setting arrows. The next moment, a few rockets had already drawn two red lines and shot towards this side like lightning!

Fang Yi cried out unluckily, kicked his feet, and the whole person rushed out towards the back of the tent, and then rolled over on the spot, about to enter the stealth state. (to be continued..)
