Chapter 210

When everyone sees this, of course they don’t want to be here.

They wasted time and formed their own teams to head towards the depths of the snowfield.

It wasn't until the evening, when everyone was almost gone, that Orson prepared to leave with Olivia.

Not far out of the inn, Orson suddenly saw a figure walking alone in front of him, and he looked a little familiar.

"Elsa?"

Orson subconsciously asked, causing Olivia beside him to glare at him helplessly.

The people in front turned around when they heard Orson calling her.

"Orson, and...Olivia? Why haven't you two left yet?" Elsa looked at the two people with a puzzled expression on her face.

"Ah... something happened, I was delayed for a while." Orson explained, and then asked: "Elsa, why are you here now?"

"Well, because I just left not long ago." Elsa said this, touched the back of her head, and said awkwardly, "It seems that no one is willing to team up with me, so I have to leave alone. "

"Ah? Why is no one willing to team up with you, Elsa?" At this time, Olivia, who was standing next to Orson, asked in confusion.

The other party is the princess of the empire! Team up with her, and if she takes a fancy to you, not to mention being rich and powerful, your future will definitely be good.

Even putting aside her status as an imperial princess, the seventh-level magician is quite powerful in her own right. She is a very powerful instant combat power. How could no one be willing to team up with her?

Thinking this, Olivia narrowed her eyes.

I always feel like something is wrong. Could it be that Elsa is deliberately pretending to be like this in front of Orson?

The purpose is to get close to Orson?

When she thought of this possibility, Olivia immediately became vigilant.

No matter what the other party's purpose is, it seems to be a bit difficult to deal with.

Seeing Olivia asking this, Elsa had no choice but to explain with her own ideas:

"It seems that because I am a princess, they are worried that I will take credit for their achievements when they are around me. If they cause me dissatisfaction, they may be resented by me, so in order to avoid causing trouble, they simply don't ask me to form a team. ”

"So that's the reason." Orson nodded, expressing understanding. "I thought that as Elsa, your princess, there would be a group of loyal servants following you, even if they sacrifice their own interests, they would make you happy."

Orson just had to say the words "dog licking" directly.

"Pfft." Elsa was amused by this statement, "Even if such a person exists, he will never appear at a time like this."

"Yes, a friend in need is a friend indeed." Orson said subconsciously.

But then he realized that this statement was not quite right.

What kind of "true love" do you mean?

Sure enough, after Orson realized something was wrong, Olivia put her hand behind Orson's back like a conditioned reflex.

"Of course, I mean the friendship between classmates!" Orson explained immediately.

Although the explanation made the current atmosphere even weirder, it still played a certain role.

At least Olivia didn't have her hands on Orson anymore.

"So, Elsa, do you want to come with us next?" Olivia stepped forward and actively invited Elsa.

"Eh? Is that okay?" Elsa was stunned, and then asked in surprise: "I...I won't disturb you, right?"

"Of course not." Olivia smiled and shook her head.

"After all, sometimes, there are things that some people dare not say, so you can only let another person say it. Are you right, Orson?"

Olivia turned back to look at Orson and showed a sly smile, as if she could see through Orson's heart.

"Well, it's okay. It's better to say Elsa that you can help us a lot."

"Then, please give me some advice." Elsa said this and quickly thanked the two of them.

"Wait a moment."

At this time, Olivia stopped again.

"After all, this experience involves credits. None of us are credit-bearers. Let's set a rule. When the time comes to report the content of the experience, no false reports are allowed. Who knows the information about the beliefs of the Laplanders? Whoever discovers it deserves the credit.”

"I have no problem." Elsa nodded.

Orson agreed.

"Okay, then, you are welcome to join, Elsa." Olivia said this, and suddenly leaned forward and whispered a short message in Elsa's ear.

Elsa was stunned for a moment, then her cheeks turned red, and she quickly shook her head like a rattle.

"How is that possible! I'm not that kind of person!"

"Then I'm relieved." Olivia nodded with satisfaction and returned to Orson.

Orson only saw two people suddenly whispering. As for what they said, there was no way of knowing.

But he didn't want to gossip about the content of the two girls' whispers.

"It's getting late. Let's find a place to camp. Let's leave tomorrow."

"Yeah."*2

Chapter 8: Snowfield Village

A week later, somewhere outside the snowfield.

Three figures wearing animal fur coats were walking in the snow.

It always gets dark much earlier in Lapland than in other areas. There are only eight hours of daylight here, so all activities need to be completed as quickly as possible.

For the locals here, they may be used to it, but for the Imperial College students who come here from other places, they need some time to adapt.

Compared with the thick snow that can cover the knees in winter, the snow here now only reaches the ankles, and the traveling conditions are already quite good.

"Ha..." Among the three, the one at the end was the first to stop.

"I...I can't do it anymore. I walked too long today."

She raised her head and looked at the two people who also stopped in front of her.

"Lite, Lena, let's find a place to rest. I really can't walk anymore."

Yes, the trio is Lite, Lena and Lianka. As the weakest and most pampered Lianka among the three, she is obviously the least adaptable to survival in the wild.

Today, a few people set out at dawn, and then walked for four hours.

Several people walked very fast, so their physical strength was consumed faster. Even though Lianka had already reached the sixth level of strength, she could only admit defeat at this moment.

"Okay." Lit nodded, then climbed into the sky and looked at the surrounding terrain.

After confirming that there was a sheltered spot nearby, Leeteuk led the two of them there.

After clearing a patch of snow, the three set up camp on the spot.

"Is there enough food?" Lianka sat by the fire and stretched out her hands to warm the fire. She looked at Lite who frowned and counted the supplies in his backpack and asked curiously.

"Yeah." Lit nodded. "We have been busy traveling these days, and we haven't killed many animals on the road. With the food we brought with us when we set out, we probably only have less than five days of rations left."

Lianka lowered her head in silence when she heard this.

Of course she knew that she was holding the team back, but she didn't know what to do to make up for her inner guilt.

After all, if you think about it carefully, it seems that she is not as outstanding as Billit and Lena.

Especially here in the snowy plains, without the help of her family and status, she is nothing.

Even in the daily hunting, Li Te and Lena got the most prey.

It wasn't that Lianka couldn't even catch prey, but that she had no experience in surviving in the wild and had no idea where the prey would be. She was walking aimlessly in the vast snowfield and it was fine if she didn't get lost.

"Let's take a rest today. According to the direction pointed by the hunter, we should be able to find the village in two or three days." After half an hour, Li Te roasted several hares and then handed one to Li Te. In front of Anka.

Lena also divided the broth cooked by the fire into three portions.

Lianka looked at the food in front of her, was silent for a while, and then said: "Well... or else I won't eat it. These are the ones you got..."

"It's already this time and you're still saying stupid things." Lite didn't listen to Lianka and took the initiative to hand the rabbit to her.

"Okay, let's eat. We are getting closer to our destination. We can stay in the village temporarily, whatever."

"That's right, sister Lianka, if you abandon us, Lena will be very angry."

"Hmm..." Lianka nodded.

The group of people rested for another two hours and walked some distance while it was getting late before setting up camp on a leeward slope.

When night came, everyone took turns to keep vigil. Lianka sat by the fire, lowering her head in thought.

At this moment, she heard a strange noise coming from next to her.

It sounded like something had stepped on the snow and the snow was sinking.

She quickly turned her head, only to see a pair of glowing eyes staring at her in the dark night.

Is it a wolf?

With this thought in mind, she put her hand on the hilt of the sword at her waist. If the other party dared to approach, it would be a special treat today.

However, the other party just stopped where he was, looking at Lianka.

Lianka's nerves were highly tense. At this moment, another footsteps came from the distance.

"Hello, are you from outside?"

A man's voice sounded, and then he approached.

Under the light of the fire, the man's slightly aged face appeared in front of Lianka. He was a tall, middle-aged man with a lot of clothes wrapped around him. At this moment, he was carrying a tall and tall head on his back. He was about the size of a moose.

And the owner of those glowing eyes is a northern sled dog.

Now it was also close, sitting by the fire, wagging its tail at Lianka.

Seeing that the other party was a human being who could take the initiative to communicate, Lianka relaxed a lot, and Li Te and Lena who were sleeping in the tent were also woken up at this moment.

"Ah, it turns out they are three little girls." The middle-aged man said this, showing a simple and honest smile.

"I am the hunter here. You can call me Olaf. Our village is nearby. Do you want to come to our village as a guest?" Olaf said, pointing to the moose behind him. "I chased this big guy a little far today. It was already dark when I came back, but I am familiar with the roads here and know where to go without wolves. Do you want to come with me?"

Lee Teuk and Lena also woke up at this time. After listening to each other's words, they looked at each other, their eyes still filled with vigilance.

It is certainly not impossible to have a village in the harsh snowfield. After all, humans are social animals and always stick together.

However, this kind of village needs to migrate frequently, because the number of animals in a region is limited. If there is not enough food, they will migrate to find a new area to settle down.

"But it's so late, and there will be strong winds in the snowfield at night. Why don't you stay here for one night and set off again when it gets light?" Lianka suggested at this time.

"Oh, it's okay. Here, look." As he said this, he pointed to the Northland sled dog beside him.

"Her name is Rado. She has walked this road many times and can recognize the way back at night. Don't worry, it's only two or three hours away from our village now. You can rest there. We have a lot of vacant houses there. It's better to sleep in a house than in the wild, right?"

Hearing Olaf say this, Lena and Lianka immediately had the idea of ​​going there. Although Lit felt a little suspicious, he nodded.

She and Lianka are both strong, not to mention Lena. Even if the other party is cheating, the three of them can easily resolve it.

So, under the lead of hunter Olaf, the three followed him to the village where he lived.

Chapter 9: Staying in the Snow Village

Orson took Olivia and Elsa to the academy deep in Lapland. On the seventh day, they finally found a village.

The whole village was covered with snow. If Orson hadn't used the magic carpet to rise to the sky and observe the surrounding terrain, he might not have been able to find the village.

When the few people approached the village, the beasts of burden domesticated by the villagers made a dull low cry, warning the villagers.

This beast of burden is similar to a rhinoceros, but it is covered with a lot of fine and thick hair, which can keep the body temperature in such cold conditions.

Sure enough, not long after the cry, the doors of several wooden houses were opened, and some men in thick coats came out. They were holding bows and arrows or axes in their hands, looking at Orson and others with unfriendly expressions.

Orson was the first to react. He raised his hands to the other party from a distance, indicating that he had no hostility, and then slowly walked forward.

Seeing this, the other party also hurriedly sent a few people to come forward.

Even after seeing Orson's action, the other party still did not let down his guard and held the weapon tightly in his hand.

It was not until they were within ten steps that both sides stopped.
