Chapter 168 The strangeness in the polar ice forest
At dusk, the edge of the extreme ice forest in Caserra.
A figure with green patterns on his face poked his head out of an inconspicuous bush. His cold eyes glanced around, as if searching for something. After a while, the cold expression on his face was slightly relieved, and then he shrank his head back again and continued to hide in the bush without any movement.
The cool breeze of dusk blew across the forest, and the branches and leaves moved with the wind. The sudden cool breeze alarmed a group of crows living in the bushes. They flapped their wings and flew towards the dark sky. With a few unpleasant screams, the crows quickly disappeared from their sight.
On the edge of this forest, a burst of smoke with rice fragrance floated slowly. It was a mountain outside the Jibing Forest. This was a temporary barracks built by Kasera City after the Jibing Forest. The purpose was to discover and report earlier when abnormalities occurred in Jibing Forest.
There is a huge mountain at the junction of Kasera City and the Jibing Forest. If you want to pass through this mountain, the only way is to travel from the avenue of the Jibing Forest before Besieb.
If it were normal times, this road would be one of the key roads for traders and traffic, but after the danger in the Extreme Ice Forest was revealed, the place was guarded tightly by soldiers from the City of Caserra to prevent any unpredictable things from erupting in the forest.
John Cather
Because he was originally the captain of the guard team, he was familiar with Jibing Forest, so he was assigned by Lucifer to this place to carry out guard tasks. Some of the city guards and the original guard team members of the city lord's mansion followed him.
Such a lineup can be able to deal with it when encountering most situations.
Since this team has only a few more than 30 people, even if they are dispatched, it will not have much impact on the city defense of Kasera.
Looking at the smoke that was lit and floating up into the sky, Kaiser felt an inexplicable sense of uneasiness in his heart, especially looking at the dark sky above his head like a huge rock, a feeling of depression was inexplicably crawling into his heart.
"Captain, it should be raining, so we should notify Lao Bai to come back now. If it gets dark after a while, he can't find the way back and is kidnapped by the werewolves halfway through the road as food, it would be really embarrassing."
The soldier who was burning the fire saw Cather's melancholy expression and couldn't help but smile and say to him.
"Okay, please inform Lao Bai to come back soon. Why do I always feel that I have a bad premonition in my heart?"
Hearing his reminder, Kathar quickly asked him to inform Lao Bai, asking him to come back quickly and not to continue lurking outside to check the situation.
"Captain, don't you understand Lao Bai's skills? He is so powerful that he is still high-level. You will believe that he is taken away by a gnoll." The person who spoke was a fat man, and he only saw a little dust on his face, as if he had just come down from the post.
"Fatty, your nose is so good. You can find barbecue with 300 meters away from the outside and you can follow the fragrance."
The fire-burning soldier smiled and joked at the fat man. The relationship between these soldiers was very good, and his favorite thing was to joke with each other and sit in the night sky and chat.
"Of course, you fat man, I can even smell the smell of a treasure a hundred meters deep underground, not to mention that you don't even have any cover, and the smell is so tempting."
The fat man said, saliva flowing from the corners of his mouth.
It seems that he is really greedy.
"There is a bake for you there, you can do it yourself."
He pointed to the barbecue beside him, and the soldier who was burning the fire said with some amusement and laughter: "I knew you are good at this guy, so I'll bake it for you in advance."
"You boy understand me."
The fat man smiled, not even the intention of washing his hands. He picked up the barbecue and sat on the ground to have a feast.
"You two."
Kathar looked helpless, not sure what to say to them.
"Captain, do you want to have something to eat?"
He deliberately raised the barbecue in his hand, and the fat man said to Cather with a smile.
Of course it is impossible to eat it. After all, the only piece of barbecue is in the hands of the fat man. Kathar could not have snatched away the barbecue that others had eaten.
So, he just smiled at this, shook his head and said nothing.
On the other side, the other soldiers were also smiling there, saying that Fatty is now the fatter and more courageous, and even the captain dared to joke directly.
The fat man also smiled, his big heart made people really unable to complain.
"Captain! It's not good..." the soldier who was communicating with Lao Bai suddenly shouted loudly.
"What happened?" Hearing this guy's panic voice, Kathar couldn't help but feel a sudden sudden feeling in his heart. He remembered the bad premonition that had been permeating his heart before, and even his face turned pale.
"I don't know when a piece of undead soldiers appeared inside the Jibing Forest. Lao Bai has solved a few of them now and is retreating and has no time to communicate with us for a long time."
"Go away!" Kathar picked up the weapon he had placed aside and shouted loudly: "Everyone and everyone go down with me to pick up that guy Lao Bai!"
Although he heard that Lao Bai had evacuated, he was worried about the other party's safety, so he chose to gather the team over and take Lao Bai back. Only when he saw that the other party was really safe could he feel relieved.
The undead soldiers are not just a simple guy to deal with.
If the undead soldiers are scattered or gathered in the same place all year round, there is no problem, but if a large number of undead soldiers are inexplicably gathered in a place where there are never any undead soldiers...
Then there is no doubt.
I'm afraid behind them, there is a necromancer who is manipulating the results of all this operation!
Although the rest of the people may not have enough combat experience as Kathar, they did not react slowly.
After responding one by one, they picked up their weapons and rushed out to the Jibing Forest along a road.
Even the fat man who was eating barbecue just now had no intention of nostalgia. When he heard something happened, he immediately threw the barbecue on the ground, then picked up the sword and shield he placed aside, and followed everyone toward the Jibing Forest.
The black clouds gradually pressed down, like a huge cage, covering the edge of the extreme ice forest...
