Chapter 1123 Dabai
The old wolf Augustus was patient, persuading him repeatedly, even threatening and luring him, and finally managed to persuade him, and reluctantly nodded and said "Mott".
Seeing him let go, the old wolf couldn't help showing joy, and praised Dabai again, urging him to lead all the snow monsters under him and follow him on the road as soon as possible.
Dabai still had that gloomy coffin face, with a very impatient middle-two expression, and before the old wolf finished speaking, he turned around and waved at the group of younger brothers behind him.
More than fifty adult snow monsters had already grown impatient, and they all cheered when the boss made a decision.
Seeing this scene, the old wolf Augustus had a strange smile on his lips, turned his head and returned to the pack of wolves, and led a large group of dire wolves to run down the mountain along the canyon.
Dabai led the group of snow monsters, running with hands and feet on the ground, trailing behind the pack of wolves, sweeping away like a silver torrent.
Audrey saw the wolves and the snow monsters dispatched one after another, heading down the mountain, she couldn't help feeling a little anxious, and quickly asked Joan where these monsters were going.
"Old wolf Augustus didn't specify the destination, but asked Dabai to go with him, saying that he was doing a very important job for Winterhold. After the job is completed, he will reward a hundred fat cows."
Joan recalled the process of negotiating between the old wolf and Dabai, and then said:
"Dabai doesn't seem to be interested in the reward of a hundred fat cows, but his group of snow monsters can't stand such a temptation, and they all clamored to urge him to accept the employment of Winterhold. Later, Dabai reluctantly nodded and agreed. I'm afraid what he really cares about is not Rewards are not entirely in response to the call of the subordinates."
"Judging from the gloomy expression on Dabai's face, I guess he has already noticed that Winterhold has assigned him a hard job, but he didn't dare to offend Winterhold, so he had to bite the bullet and go down the mountain to act as the old wolf Augustus' thug."
After hearing his analysis, Audrey's expression gradually became serious.
"Joan, I suspect there is something hidden behind this matter, we must report to Captain Stone as soon as possible."
"You go back and report. I plan to continue tracking Augustus and Dabai to find out what these sneaky monsters are up to."
Driven by curiosity, Joan decided to track the snow monster and the wolves alone until the mystery in his heart was solved.
Audrey hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said: "Then you should be more careful, contact me anytime if you need anything, and don't take any risks!"
"Don't worry, I'll take care of myself."
Joan waved goodbye to her, hurriedly flapped his wings and sped up, chasing after the group of monsters on the snow that had drifted away.
In order not to arouse the alertness of the snow monster and the wolves, Joan took the time to cast a spell and cast an "invisibility spell" on himself, and then lowered the flying altitude to observe the whereabouts of the monsters up close.
The old wolf Augustus led the way, followed by the pack of wolves, followed by Great White and many snow monsters, and ran wildly for two hours among the snow-capped mountains until dusk fell, and there was no intention of stopping.
Just as Joan was guessing the destination of their trip, Dabai suddenly let out a long roar and stopped first.
The snow monsters behind him were ordered to stop one after another.
The old wolf Augustus heard the movement behind him, glanced back, and found that the snow monsters stopped their way, so he turned around and ran over, angrily questioning Dabai why he stopped.
The mutated snow monster rolled its outer eyelids and howled at the old wolf angrily.
Joan vaguely heard their conversation in mid-air, Dabai seemed to be complaining that the sky was getting dark, and he and his clansmen were tired and sleepy, so they had to find a place to sleep first, and it would not be too late to continue their journey tomorrow morning.
The old wolf Augustus was very dissatisfied with his procrastinating style, and tried to persuade Dabai to go on the road overnight, but the other party just shook his head and refused to die.
In the end, the old wolf had no choice but to hold back his anger and agreed to spend the night in a nearby valley and continue on his way after dawn.
Qiao An watched the dispute between Laolang and Dabai invisibly, and couldn't help laughing secretly.
Seeing the angry expression on the old wolf's face when he left, he probably suspected that Dabai and his people were deliberately delaying time, but in Qiao An's view, it might not be that the snow monsters were deliberately slowing down their work, but it was more likely that the huge differences in the living habits of both sides The discrepancy led to a misunderstanding.
Winter wolves and dire wolves are born with well-developed night vision capabilities, and are basically "nocturnal creatures" that are accustomed to going out at night.
Snow monsters do not have "dark vision", and their night vision is greatly limited. They are standard "diurnal creatures" just like humans.
At this time, the night was getting darker, and it was already the sleeping time that the snow monsters were used to, so of course they were reluctant to continue their journey at night.
On the contrary, after nightfall is the time when the pack of wolves are most active. The old wolf Augustus used himself to push others, suspecting that Dabai was deliberately making things difficult for him, because the other party was still valuable, and now it was inconvenient to turn his face, so he had to hold back.
Snow monsters and wolves entered the valley one after another, looking for sheltered areas suitable for sleeping.
Joan retracted his wings and quietly landed on a snow-covered rock in the valley, watching the movements of the monsters from a high position.
The terrain in the valley is low, it looks like a snow-covered basin, and the surrounding cliffs are covered with thick ice.
Dabai walked to the end of the valley, immersed himself in digging the mountains of ice and snow, with his strong arms and sharp claws, he dug out an ice cave for shelter in less than ten minutes, and fell asleep.
The rest of the snow monsters also followed Dabai's example, digging the snow near the cliff, getting into the cave, curling up into a furry ball, snoring loudly after a while.
The old wolf Augustus and the group of dire wolves who followed him saw that the snow monsters had fallen asleep, and they had nothing to do, so they had to nap in groups on the snow to kill time.
Joan stood on the rock, secretly observed the scene in the valley, and waited patiently for a long time until all the snow monsters had entered the cave and snored. Then he spread his wings under the cover of "invisibility" and slowly walked towards the valley. Glide through the depths.
When passing over the pack of wolves, Joan's nerves were tense, for fear of disturbing the group of beasts with keen sense of smell.
Fortunately, none of the wolves, including Augustus, noticed the airflow passing overhead, and no one looked up.
Joan skimmed past the warning zone guarded by the wolves without any risk, and glided to the place where the snow monsters slept peacefully, secretly heaving a sigh of relief.
Converging his wings and landing on the snow, Joan didn't rush to move his feet. He first used the supernatural ability "advanced spider form" to transform into a half-human half-spider form, and then walked quietly on the snow with eight long legs.
Compared with the eagle man or human form, the biggest advantage of the spider form is that it has eight legs to share the weight. It will hardly leave any traces when walking on the snow, and it will not make footsteps, which can avoid causing conflict between the snow monster and the pack of wolves. vigilance.
