Chapter 1128 Avalanche

Joan merged into the rock formation, his eyes were in chaos, he couldn't see anything, and his hearing was blocked by the rock formation, but fortunately he could barely hear the movement outside.

Joan waited silently for about half an hour, until the roar of the avalanche outside the rock formation subsided, and then he jumped out and broke free from the rock.

puff!

As soon as Joan got off the rock formation, he threw himself into the soft snow, and it was cold from head to toe.

He opened his arms, pushed aside the snow in front of him, and stood up from the thick snow and ice.

The snow and crushed ice that fell from the top of the cliff almost completely buried the valley where the pasture is located. The snow layer was several feet thick. Joan raised his eyes and saw a vast expanse of whiteness. The cattle, sheep and snow monsters were all gone.

Just as he was looking around, there was a sudden burst of intensive gunshots in the distance.

Joan looked in the direction of the gunshots, and saw several snow monsters rushed thousands of feet away by the avalanche, trying to get out of the predicament.

However, on the hillside to their side, the officers and soldiers of the reconnaissance company were holding shotguns, aiming at the snow monster and firing frequently, splashing blood stained the snow red.

The mutated snow monster was a very conspicuous target. Joan didn't want to be accidentally injured by his comrades, so he turned back into a human form and dusted off the snow on his body.

At this moment, a strange cry came from behind him, which startled him.

Looking back, I saw a snow monster whose lower body was still buried in the snow, only the body above the chest was exposed, and its eyes were wide open, staring at him blankly.

"Wow! Dabai is gone!"

Witnessing Joan's transformation into a humanoid snow monster, he exclaimed in shock.

"Dabai was lost by the robed mage!"

Joan frowned, and took out a small pill that exuded a strong sulfur smell from the storage bag, and looked at the snow monster with a murderous look in his eyes.

"Dabai is missing, right? Then you go to Dabai, why are you yelling at me, Joan Vida!"

Sneering and chanting the activation spell, Joan raised his hand and blasted a "fireball", which stuck on the face of the screaming snow monster, and sent him to see "Dabai".

...

Although the snow monster is strong and strong, it is not afraid of severe cold, but after all, it is a body of flesh and blood. It will still die if it is crushed by tons of ice and snow, and it will still suffocate if it is buried alive in the snow.

Except for Joan, who had been prepared for a long time, only a handful of snow monsters were not affected by the avalanche. However, their good luck ended here, and they fell under the guns of the officers and soldiers of the reconnaissance company in a short time.

By the time Joan climbed the hill, the battle was over.

Captain Wall Stone greeted him with a big laugh and gave him a warm bear hug.

"Little mage, good job! Thanks to you leading the monsters into the trap this time, we can wipe them all out unscathed!"

Joan rubbed the painful shoulder pinched by Mr. Captain, and suddenly remembered something.

"Mr. Captain, when we clean up the battlefield, collect as many snow monster corpses as possible and peel off their fur. I will be useful."

"Also, on the hillside on the left, there is a winter wolf that I knocked out, and it probably hasn't woken up yet."

"That cunning old wolf is named Augustus, a servant of Trim, the lord of Winterhold. The snow monster was instructed by him to try to attack Elk Town down the mountain."

"Catch this old wolf and torture it, maybe we can extract more valuable information from it."

"No problem, we will do as you say!" Captain Stone slapped Joan on the shoulder again, turned around to greet his subordinates, and went to clean the battlefield together.

...

That night, Joan's company camped in the ruins of the ranch at the foot of the mountain.

The snow monsters finally failed to catch the fleeing goat, but ruined their lives instead.

As for the four yaks killed by the snow monsters in the corral, they were all cheaper than the officers and soldiers of the reconnaissance company. The beef roasted on the bonfire until it was golden brown and oily was enough for nearly a hundred young men to eat with their stomachs open. There is still a lot of beef left to eat, roast it and dry it, save some to eat, and supply the army rations for the next week will not be a problem.

Joan also enjoyed a hearty beef meal, and then got busy again.

Captain Stone successfully captured the old wolf Augustus at the location Joan pointed out, and asked Audrey to treat the old wolf a little bit so that he would not die from serious injuries, and then tied him up and kept him under strict guard.

When Joan came over, Captain Stone was about to interrogate the old wolf.

Audrey, Holden and Hyrule were also present.

Audrey opened the "Realm of Honesty" to prevent the cunning old wolf from lying.

Holding a notebook and a pen, Holden seemed to be preparing to take notes.

Hailaer watched vigorously, and Joan was not sure if she was just watching the fun, or if she was going to assist Mr. Captain in torturing the old wolf—if it refused to confess truthfully.

Joan greeted everyone, and walked towards the old wolf Augustus, holding a large syringe in his hand.

The old wolf was tied up like a mummy, its swollen jaw distorted its face, and it squinted a pair of triangular eyes, trying to figure out how to get away with it.

Inadvertently saw a human teenager approaching, with a fair and handsome face expressionless, holding a thick needle in his hand, the needle shone coldly in the light of the campfire.

It shuddered involuntarily, and the horror in its eyes could not be concealed.

"You boy... what are you trying to do?"

The old wolf asked tremblingly, with an ominous premonition in his heart.

Joan didn't bother to take care of it, so he stretched out his left hand, felt around its neck, found a blood vessel, and inserted a needle into it.

The old wolf howled in pain. Compared with the pain, what made it more unbearable was the intense fear aroused by the cruel and strange behavior of the human youth.

Joan still ignored it, drew a large tube of blood, pulled out the needle, turned around and left.

From the beginning to the end, he didn't say a word.

The silence made his weird behavior even more terrifying, and made the old wolf panic, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt frightened.

"Joan, the fur you want has been peeled and washed, and I will send someone to deliver it to you later." Captain Stone said.

"Thank you." Joan nodded and left.

Holden glanced at Joan's back, turned his head to look at the bewildered face of old wolf Augustus, and smiled maliciously at it.

"The person who drew your blood just now is our army mage, what do you think he wants to draw your blood for?"

The old wolf hesitated for a moment, and wanted to pretend to be deaf and dumb, but the half-smile of the young poet's expression made him feel uneasy, and finally he couldn't help but let out a trembling growl.

"Whether it's torture or other tricks, it's useless to me!"

"Really?" Holden saw through the old wolf's vicious nature, and said with a sneer: "Then when you are interrogated later, you might as well try to tell a few lies, and then you will experience a more warm and thoughtful experience than drawing blood." ' Treat."

The old wolf Augustus couldn't help trembling. After a brief ideological struggle, he gave up his plan of preferring death to surrender, and decided to confess truthfully and suffer less torture.
