Chapter 2145 Styx Cold Flame

Clark was dumbfounded, and it took him a long time to touch his head with emotion.

"Brother Joan, I just want to set up a simple camping place, but you are good enough to create a magnificent palace directly! After all, the mage master is domineering, incomparable, incomparable!"

Joan couldn't help laughing, opened the door of the folding fortress "Xiaojinli", and called the Frost Giant to go in and rest.

Clapping and waking up the wall lamps attached to the "Immortal Flame" around the hall, Joan sat on a chair by the dining table, took out the "Holy Pot" Ariel Neil and placed it on the table, quickly generating a hot and sumptuous dinner.

While the two were eating and drinking, Joan briefly told Clark about his adventure experience returning to Cloud City, including the hidden construction factory area, and the frost giant was amazed.

After dinner, Joan planned to go for a walk and collect some "cold flames" by the river as research samples.

The banks of the Vimur River at night are the area where monsters are rampant. Clark was worried that Joan was wandering outside alone, so he walked out of the folded fortress, pricking up his ears vigilantly, and looked around.

Joan turned into a bee man form and flew above the river with wings flapping. Through the hazy fog, you can see dots of blue light balls floating in the low altitude close to the river surface, which is the legendary "cold flame".

"Cold Flame" is a widely used alchemy material. It is said that "Styx Witch" is also good at using this mysterious supernatural substance to strengthen spells, making it both cold and necrosis damage.

Qiao An carefully flew close to a cloud of cold flames, and found that it was a kind of gas-liquid mixture with a faint blue color and a viscous texture. The density was slightly lighter than that of air. , absorbing enough heat from the surrounding environment, it disintegrates by itself and dissipates without a trace.

Joan cast the "Myth Analysis Technique" on the "cold flame", the blue fire trembled slightly, and then displayed a set of uncomplicated magic marks.

After a little analysis, Joan discovered that the substance "cold flame" is composed of equal amounts of cold magic and negative energy. Creatures that touch the cold flame will receive 1 energy level of cold damage each round, plus 1 energy level. Super Necrotic damage, no wonder the Styx Witch can use this substance to strengthen spells.

Joan drew 4 "Sid Mana" to bless himself with the "Death Barrier" to protect himself from negative energy erosion. As for the cold magic power, there is no need to cast spells to resist it. Anyway, there is a "spirit collar", and the cold magic power is for him. Like a tonic.

Taking precautions, Joan stretched out his hand to touch the small "cold flame" on the opposite side. It felt like he was stroking the cool, slippery grease. The blue flame rolled in his palm, trying to slip away through his fingers.

Joan clenched his fist in time, wrapped "Cold Flame" in his palm, then took out a low-temperature resistant crystal steel bottle, unscrewed the cap with one hand, stuffed the captured "Cold Flame" into the bottle, and screwed on the cap.

The "cold flame" in the sealed crystal cylinder seems to be unable to absorb heat due to lack of contact with the air, and gradually transforms from a gas-liquid mixture into a pure liquid state, and deposits on the bottom of the bottle, like a small ball of blue glue.

Holding the transparent steel cylinder in his left hand, Joan turned around and flew to the area where the "cold flames" were dense, and used the "Mage Hand" to capture more "cold flames" from the air, stuffing them into the cylinders one by one until the "cold flames" above the nearby river "Flame" was caught by him, and he collected more than half of the bottles, which weighed almost a pound.

Joan weighed the harvest tonight with satisfaction, and felt that it was enough, so he put the crystal cylinder back into the storage bag, turned around and flew back to the shore, and greeted Clark to return to the folding fortress.

The two chatted and walked, returning the same way. When approaching the gate of the fortress, Clark suddenly grabbed Joan and watched the gate of the fortress vigilantly.

"Brother Clark, what's the matter?"

The fortress has an enchantment, and outsiders cannot enter. Even if he cast a spell to break the barrier and force his way in, the "magic alarm" would be triggered. However, Joan didn't receive any alarm and was quite puzzled by Clark's actions.

"Brother Joan, I cleared the ice and snow around the fort before we left, but it was only an hour since we left. Why is there a lot of snow and ice around the gate? It's not snowing now, so what's the matter?" It couldn't have been created out of thin air, could it?"

Hearing what Clark said, Joan also felt strange.

There was indeed snow and ice piled up on both sides of the castle gate, which seemed normal at first glance.

Clark bent down and picked up two pebbles on the river beach, aimed at one of the piles of snow, and smashed them with all his strength.

Needless to say, the frost giant's stone-throwing skills, the pebbles hit the snowdrift, and there was a muffled bang, the snowflakes splashed, and the lurker hidden under the snow was exposed, but it was a large mass of ice-blue substance, with a slender and round body , like a boa constrictor coiled into a snake array.

Joan also noticed that the monster's body was inlaid with countless pieces of ice, large and small, and the sharp parts of the ice were all facing the outside. It was not only a camouflage, but also a spiked armor with both offensive and defensive capabilities.

This feature reminded him of the "Sollym Hound" he encountered not long ago in the underground palace of Winterhold.

Clark snorted coldly, then threw another pebble, and the moment it hit the snow, another monster of the same kind was exposed.

The sound of stones colliding with ice and snow echoed in the silent night sky.

As if realizing that their disguise had been seen through by their prey, the seemingly normal snow around the folded fortress shook one after another. The disguise was removed, revealing the true face like a blue python inlaid with ice edges all over the body. The total number was no less than two or three. Shitiao squirmed and surrounded Joan and Clark.

"Tsk tsk! There are so many 'frozen mud monsters'! Fortunately, we found this group of insidious guys in time, otherwise we would have suffered a lot!" The frost giant was amazed.

Ice slush monster?

After a little recollection, Joan recalled that he had seen this strange creature in the "Slime-shaped Monster Subvolume" of "Vares Monster Illustrated Book".

The drift ice ooze monster belongs to a subclass of the "mud-shaped monster" family. It has the blood of the cold subspecies and mainly lives in low-temperature areas at high latitudes.

Most oozes have low intelligence and slow movements. They are good at using camouflage skills to blend into their habitats, and patiently wait for their prey to come to their door.

For example, the "slime monster" that Joan encountered in the abandoned lighthouse on the Scimitar Coast was disguised as a puddle of sewage, which can be called fake.

"Frozen mud monsters" also have similar characteristics, except that they live in the Arctic region covered with ice and snow, and are better at disguising themselves as snow or ice. They often lurk by the riverside or on both sides of the road, ambushing drinking beasts or passing travelers. .

Seeing a large group of "frozen mud monsters" surround him, Joan couldn't help but blame himself for being too careless. Thanks to Clark being cautious enough and having rich experience in cold zone adventures, he discovered these killers lurking in the dark in time.
