Scene 152 Winter Solstice of the Wolf
"That place, one by one." Hua De looked at the place where the light beam disappeared and was startled. ()
"kindness?"
"Nothing." The centaur elder seemed to have reacted. He turned around and walked towards the centaur team. "What's wrong?" Antitina stood next to Brando and asked slightly strangely when she saw Huade's reaction. Before the frost wave hit, she added a long shawl to her body to resist the cold.
"That direction is the arbor forest, the hometown of many centaurs in the Green Tower." Brando replied.
"Ah" the noble lady looked at the centaur elder's back with some sympathy: "But how do you know, Lord Lord?"
"Didn't the Deadwood Guard Guide say that yesterday morning?" Brando asked.
"It seems so." Antitina was stunned: "But, it seems to be just a casual mention, Sir, do you remember it now?" She couldn't help but look at Brando with envy and surprise.
Brando hurriedly pretended to check his sword so as not to laugh suddenly when he looked at the serious look on the noble lady's face. Nonsense, how can you remember it? The problem is that these twelve outposts (later seventeen) around the Green Tower have already become famous on the Internet because of Valhalla.
It's just that this reason is really not acceptable to outsiders.
"Okay, let's go." He interrupted the topic and said to Antitina.
"kindness?"
"The wolf is coming."
It was completely dark in the forest at this moment, and the originally dim starlight and moonlight were also hidden behind the clouds. When the demonic tide came, the world became pitch black. Far away, only a pillar of light in the mountains and forests seemed to be the only light left in the world.
Those light pillars are moving slowly.
This scene seemed familiar to Brando before. He had seen the first wolf disaster on the video. Only a few of the top players at the time participated in this plot mission.
"In the dark storm," a small number of players raised their fires and headed towards Valhalla - the few dozen light pillars seemed like the last swaying flame of hope on the vast land.
But they eventually succeeded.
As for whether he could succeed, "Brando didn't know. He looked around and saw that the mountain forest was already a silvery gray under the darkness.
With nearly ten thousand levels of perception, he could see the fleeting white shadows in the woods a few miles away.
That's the winter wolf.
Centaur Elder Huade's scolding came from the front of the team, and the team began to move forward.
After nearly ten hours of trekking, the team had already approached the southern end of Thorny Ridge. A few miles away, two intersecting black ridges formed the entrance to the Kalanga Mountains like opposing guards. The terrain became undulating in that direction. It gets steeper, but as long as you get over there, you've passed the first level.
"According to the speed of this team, it's still at most an hour away."
But it's called Wolf's Pass.
It is also the most dangerous part of this journey.
Brando looked around and saw more and more winter wolves in the forest ahead, but he knew that this was just the beginning. The wolves would still need some time to gather during the winter solstice. He took out his pocket watch, and the time on it showed that it was less than ninety minutes before the second wave of wolves arrived.
"It seems to be just in time." Brando thought to himself.
The team is slowly crossing the last undulating mountains of Thorny Ridge, and several winter wolves rush out of the snow from time to time. Naturally, what greets them is the centaur attack, although Brando has already arranged a strict guard outside the team. Line, but Fire Claw Lizard, Shadow Rock Beast and Shadow Wolf. Although Brando called this thing Rock Garurumon, unfortunately, Antitina, Kuran, Caglis and even Akane all agreed that this It was a terrible name, so they simply bypassed Brando's decision and called the creature Shadow Wolf. In short, "The cordon arranged by Brando was actually to prevent the mysterious lord-level monster. .
As for the lone winter wolf, he didn't mind the Fire Claw Lizard helping him get some exclusive experience, but if there was a slightly larger pack of wolves, he would order his summoned creatures to let them in.
Brando doesn't want to let a gap appear in his cordon. The centaur can still pay the price of casualties to deal with the difficult winter wolf, but if the mysterious BOSS sneaks in unnoticed, , it’s not a matter of escaping.
As for the winter wolves themselves, they are silver-level monsters. "They are like white ghosts. These white shadows howl and pierce through the forest with the wind and snow. Each one is the size of a foal." They are as fast as lightning and have the abilities of ordinary people. Unattainable power.
The strength of the winter wolf is outstanding even among silver-level creatures. The black pine that can only be hugged by one person can be broken with just a slight bump. Human silver-level soldiers are as vulnerable as ordinary people in front of these terrifying monsters. For example, a winter wolf broke into the escort knights of the Eruin envoy before and was besieged by more than a dozen silver-level knights. One of them was bitten to death by it.
However, if it were just strength, the winter wolf would not be worthy of being called a ghost in the forest that breathes frost and fog. What is truly terrifying about winter wolves is that although they are not yet at the gold level, they have already mastered some of the elements of winter.
Their claws are equipped with the most deadly cold damage. Just a light scratch on your armor can freeze you into ice cubes, not to mention that these monsters can spit out frost breath and freeze you dozens of feet away. your blood.
It can be said that the only thing to be thankful for when facing this monster is that the winter wolf has no leader. Legend has it that the alpha wolf of the winter wolf was killed while fighting for the throne with the scourge of wolves, Isis. From then on, the king of the forest no longer allowed the winter wolf to have a alpha wolf.
Every player in Amber Sword knows that there are only wolf lords among winter wolves. It is these small bosses who unite small wolf packs to form a real wolf pack.
Winter wolves also seem to understand their shortcomings, so these creatures living in the ice and snow always move together in at least four or five wolf packs.
Four or five wolf packs, hundreds of winter wolves, and seven lord-level winter wolves, can be considered a huge threat to any country in Warnd at this time of year.
Therefore, as soon as they appeared outside the forest, one-third of the thirty or forty beams of light were extinguished in a matter of seconds.
It’s self-evident what the “light goes out” means.
In the wind and snow, everyone became a little worried.
The pressure from the front is also increasing. Winter wolves are one of the most common threats on the northern border of Cruz, but they are not common in the black forest south of Eruin. The centaur elder guards are not used to fighting these strange enemies. , sometimes they can only passively choose how to withstand the attacks of winter wolves, so the battle is bloody and tragic.
However, this situation did not last long.
After Count Odin discovered that there was something wrong with the Centaur's tactics, he immediately took the initiative to find Huard and Quinir, hoping to temporarily take over the command on the grounds that he had some experience in fighting winter wolves.
He had no extra considerations at this time. It was obvious that if the centaurs, tree elves and druids were defeated, they would not survive this tragic battle.
Moreover, Count Odin understands that in the entire Eruin, people who are good at fighting winter wolves are almost rare: even he only had the experience of fighting winter wolves once or twice by coincidence when Cruz was traveling.
But things didn't develop as he imagined.
Because he soon discovered that there was another person here who had more say about the winter wolf.
That was Brando, the young guy who claimed to be the Baron of Firland, catching up from behind and taking over the command without saying a word. Then he, Akane, and Kuran entered the front line of the battle. It seemed that in just an instant, the battle situation was reversed.
At that moment, according to Quinier, there seemed to be a ruler in the hearts of today's young people.
Brando can accurately calculate the distance at which the winter wolves will charge or spit out the breath of frost every time. The error is accurate to within ten feet. Whenever the winter wolves stop, the young lord will raise his hand. He raised his sword and gave a loud command to the centaur elder guards to stop, and then severely damaged these white ghosts by throwing javelins.
Although the winter wolf's attack is outstanding, its defense is still fragile as wolf monsters have always been. Facing attacks also coming from Silver High, it often only takes one or two times to seriously injure them to death.
After a rain of spears, a wolf pack will often lose a quarter of its members.
But if they charge, those centaurs will also be ready." The centaurs in the front row stepped back, immediately revealing two rows of spear walls in the back row.
It can be said that in the face of the same attack, the first move plays a decisive role in determining the outcome of the battle between the two sides." But unfortunately, in front of Brando, the Winter Wolf did not discuss the right to first move.
Brando put his hand on his sword. He stood among the centaur army and looked at the white ghosts in the distance. He thought that he had gained nearly a million experience points on these winter wolves, and he almost vomited. If we still can't fight such a battle, we can really go home and plant sweet potato seeds.
He knows every one of Cruz, Eruin, and the monsters around the Knights Kingdom Grace. Nearly a hundred years of experience in the game makes him familiar with them all.
It's just that in the game, it's knowledge that everyone living in these countries knows, and what Brando knows has no superiority at all.
But here, history intersects and weaves another wonderful tapestry at Brando's feet.
The severely injured wolves finally retreated far away, roaring maliciously in the forest, but Count Odin could not believe his eyes, and he did not even notice when his hand left the hilt of the sword that he had been holding tightly.
This, isn't this the standard tactic used by the Cruze Northern Frost White Legion to deal with the winter wolves?
At this moment, Count Odin almost remembered the veteran Cruz who taught him how to deal with these winter wolves. He was equally experienced, but the young man in front of him did it much more cleanly.
But Count Odin didn't know that at this time, on another mountain a few miles away, someone was sighing exactly like him.
"Cruz?"
A swordsman with a giant sword five or six feet long on his back, wearing a gray-brown robe, still young in appearance, but with long shawl hair that has turned gray, stood in the dense forest on the top of the mountain, looking from a distance. The battle between centaur and winter wolf.
The man's gray-brown eyes moved, and a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes.
