It is impossible for the girl to find the evil god in the textbook

Earl Winter had accumulated injuries of various sizes in several wars. He stayed in the city to recuperate and did not participate in this expedition.In addition, time was tight, so after the simple ceremony, Erwin was the only one who came to see him off alone.

"Actually, I also want to join the teacher's team, but you know that His Excellency the Earl of Moria needs more help. There is absolutely no problem with the teacher's ability."

In Erwin's eyes, Ella may be a greater magician than the nameless one.

"Maybe I'll check on your study progress later."

Ella was joking, but she also understood that she probably would never return to Snow Country again.

This is something that everyone knows, but neither of them intends to point it out.

"Very happy, although I want to answer this way... But recently, I have less and less time to study magic."

Erwin spread his hands helplessly.

After a brief silence, Ella spoke first.

"Goodbye then."

"Goodbye, teacher."

It was a final farewell, and Ella felt that she had nothing left for the student, nothing more appropriate than that notebook.

After a short run-up, Byaki supported his huge body with his fleshy wings. In the girl's sight, the scene on the ground rapidly shrank and became blurred.

The word teacher touched Ella a little, and her eyelids twitched inconspicuously.

She turned her head to look at Lily, perhaps a little sorry for her students in Snow Country, but her desire to return became more urgent.

Under the gloomy sky, the gray line in the distance gradually became clear.The gray line winds upwards, straight into the sky, just like the meaning of the name "Etmonnanji", it is the staircase connecting the sky and the earth.

Ayla felt her palms were burning hot, and the invitation form leading to the Moon Temple seemed to be burning slowly. She no longer hesitated, and ordered Byakhi to speed up the flight.

Chapter 67 The Road to Heaven

Near the destination, Ayla signaled the Byakhees to land on the ground and dispelled the summoning spell.

When approaching the steps of Altmunnankey, the monsters with filthy attributes clearly showed fear and discomfort. As soon as Ella terminated the contract, they couldn't wait to fly away.

Lily was not surprised by this phenomenon, she mentioned:

"In historical records, the people who climbed the temple were all on foot. There were people who tried to ride Shantak birds or flying dragons to the moon, but their endings were not happy. Most of them disappeared, and only after a long time Farmers found scattered and frozen body parts on the ground many kilometers away."

"Only one person successfully returned to the ground. That was a grand duke among the barbarians. He led his army to search for the temple on a flying dragon, but in the end it was only the grand duke who came back—the grand duke didn't show much abnormality at first. , but suddenly appointed an heir at the end of the banquet, and the next day, he was found dead in his tent by the maid, the cause of death was excessive blood loss."

Ella continued to ask this topic. There is still a long journey to go, so I can use this to pass the time.

"Excessive bleeding?"

"That's right...he cut out his own eyes, cut off his tongue, pierced his eardrums, and just sat in the big tent until dawn."

Lily's words made people feel a little creepy.But this is actually not surprising. In Kraft's records, there are cases of encountering malicious intentions from superiors during divination. Compared with those bizarre descriptions, the death of this archduke can actually be considered a mercy.

"Since then, no one has tried to climb the temple by tricky methods... Having said that, there have not been many pilgrims in total for hundreds of years."

During the conversation, the three of them had already passed through the last dangerous terrain.

"Although I planned to climb up slowly from the beginning, even so..."

Ella looked forward speechlessly.

"Isn't it too high?"

At the end of the chasm, the gray line that twisted upward finally took on its original form.It was a quaint spiral staircase, and in the center of the staircase was a thick hexagonal stone pillar.They stretched upwards from the ground until they were lost in the dark clouds.

Although Ella had always understood conceptually what the so-called stone steps leading to the sky meant, after a close encounter, she was still unavoidably shocked by its magnificence.

There is almost no decoration on the stone staircase, but this does not affect its solemnity and grandeur.When the scale of the building reaches this level, everything else is unimportant.

"This is the Stairway to Almond Nankey, the Road to Heaven—"

"It's also the first time I've seen..."

Lily raised her head upwards, muttering with emotion to herself.

This is an incomparable miracle. In comparison, even the Heaven-given Winter City Wendel is slightly inferior.

"What shall we do now?"

Lily came back to herself.

No one knows how long it will take to complete this road to heaven.Ella had seen a similar study in Kraft's library. It seemed that in that world, mortal scholars who were not magicians had calculated the distance from the earth to the moon by some method.

This is really a miracle she can't understand, but Ella's interest ends here. She doesn't remember the specific data recorded in the book, she only knows that it is a very, very long number.

After all, this research is of little significance to her. After all, the world of Snow Country is different from the one she is in, and the numbers of the two may be completely different.

Ashley took the luggage from the two of them, carried it on his shoulder and smiled, then replied without hesitation.

"Of course, start crawling, Miss Lily. I will carry you when you can't hold on any longer."

Ella thinks that the knight's statement is right. Since someone has successfully reached the temple before, it means that this is not an impossible journey.

Thinking about it, Ayla fumbled and took out three tubes of amber medicine.

"This is a vitality potion. Within 24 hours after drinking it, it can speed up the recovery of our physical strength."

"You always come up with something weird."

Ashley's eyelids jumped a few times as she touched the familiar glass tube.She didn't doubt the effectiveness of Ella's potion, of course, it would be better if it didn't hurt too much.

She gritted her teeth and tried before Lily drank the potion.

As time passed, Ashley did not feel any discomfort, and then she agreed that Lily also drank the vitality potion.

The expeditionary force has gradually penetrated deep into the tundra mountains, and in the process, people still haven't found any life.

Beasts, plants, monsters... nothing, just barren mountains and land deep in the tundra.

Legend has it that the tundra mountains are inhabited by gug giants who have appeared in previous wars. They are races over twenty feet tall, and it is almost impossible to hide in this environment.But the expeditionary force's scouts also failed to find any traces of them here.

After approaching the mountain, a strange, unbearable smell began to fill the air... a smell reminiscent of a newborn baby in a delivery room.

In the special environment of the tundra, such a strong breath of life is simply disgusting.

"How far is it from the destination?"

The Snow King rode a tall horned deer, and he signaled the team to stop on a flat road.

"According to the current speed of travel, there should be three days to go."

The nameless court mage recovered the temporarily created familiar, which replaced her eyes and provided a broad field of vision. After a simple calculation, she answered.

It was getting late, and the harsh climate deep in the tundra was no longer suitable for the army to move forward.

The king found his powers limited in the mountains.

In the past, he has been able to manipulate the weather to create the right environment for the army.

But now...

Snowflakes gradually began to float in the sky, and the temperature inevitably began to drop.The Snow King paused for a moment with his scepter. He found that he could only reduce the wind and snow to a certain extent within a very limited range, and the consumption of further controlling the weather was far beyond his imagination.

"Rest where you are, and move on after dawn."

The attendants quickly passed the order to the whole army, and they set up tents near the mountain wall.

The snow country's marching tents imitated the barbarians to a certain extent. The tents used a double-layer structure of tarpaulin and goat fur, which kept warm without worrying about the penetration of snow water.

The supplies of the expeditionary force were sufficient, and the supplies vehicles were filled with dried meat and sun-dried vegetables. The dry food that was easy to carry for a long time only needed to be boiled in boiling water for a period of time, and it could become a good meal.

As time passed, the voices in the camp faded away.

The night was eerily quiet, with only the sounds of bonfires and wind and snow heard.

Chapter 68 Sly Answers

As time went on, the light on the steps of Altmund's South Key dimmed.The number of torches is limited, and it is already a bit dangerous to move forward in this environment.

Although Ella made a charm to record the floating spell before ascending the stairs to avoid unexpected situations, that situation would cause unnecessary damage to both physical and mental strength.

"How long have we been walking?"

Ella felt that her knees were weak. Even with the assistance of the vitality potion, her physical strength had reached its limit.

This is just the most basic physical problem, which is mostly related to childhood life. Ella tried many methods, but she still couldn't completely improve her physique.

As the altitude rose, Ella gradually felt it was difficult to breathe, and her pace could not help but slow down.

The dim moonlight was flickering, and the stone staircase was filled with icy mist. Looking from here to the ground, the scenery had become very blurred.

The distant mountains stretched in a distant direction, and the torches of the expeditionary army could no longer be seen at this height.

But when he looked up, there was still no end to the stairs hovering above his head.

When she stopped, the suppressed exhaustion surged up, and she almost couldn't stand still.

"We've come a long way, let's stop here today, the stairs of Altmunnankey can't be crossed in a day or two."

Ashley put down her luggage. The weight on her body exceeded the sum of the two of them, but she was still breathing evenly, without showing the slightest fatigue.

To be honest, Ella envied Ashley or Ling's physical fitness.

Lily also carefully looked at the ground. The stone stairs are very spacious, but there are no handrails or guardrails.This experience is different from flying. The height and dangerous environment will make people feel dizzy unconsciously.

"Miss, please lean in."

After stopping, the coldness of the temperature became impossible to ignore. There was a strong wind in the sky, but there was no shelter from the wind on the steps.

Along the way Ashley collected some scattered firewood, left over from the journeys of the ancient pilgrims.

She cleared snow off a few steps nearby and tried to start a bonfire.However, due to the long-term penetration of snow, the firewood was wet and cold, and the environment here was special. Even if we surrounded ourselves with luggage, the strong wind would still blow out the few sparks we managed to get out.

This is not a small matter that can be ignored. In this environment, maintaining body temperature is very important.

"Let me do it."
