Three days later, there were still four fresh crystal cores in Abel's personal storage box, and the rest were consumed by him at the rate of one per day.
By this point, Abel finally realized how troublesome it was to use a fresh crystal core. He had to hunt spiritual beasts in the wild, and the crystal core would only solidify for 2 hours. Therefore, he had to find a safe place in the wild in less than an hour before he could meditate. Wizards had no defense when they were meditating, so this was the most dangerous time for them.
"Master Bernie, we found the ice fire ape!" The golden flying rider who went out to look for the ice fire ape hurriedly found Bernie and reported to him as soon as he came back.
"Finally found it, that's great!" The dwarves on the side laughed heartily. Although it was a practice these days, in fact, everyone was looking forward to meeting the ice fire ape, even if they could get a little news. But three days had passed, it seemed that there had never been an ice fire ape here.
Whether it was the pangolin Knight captain of Boughton's six brothers, Wizard Kipling and Wizard Aitken, they were very anxious. If there was no ice fire ape here, then Bernie's cold poison would be delayed for a while. Although Abel's rum suppressed it now, if one day the rum couldn't suppress it, and they couldn't find the ice fire ape, Bernie would be in danger.
"Where is it?" Bernie asked in a steady voice.
"Master Bernie, the ice fire ape is hiding in the valley two mountains from here in the south. I have observed it for a while, and it has not gone out. It has been staying there." The golden flying rider said.
"Strange, this is not in line with the character of the ice fire ape!" Bernie said to himself with some puzzlement.
Wizard Kipling spoke first, "Young Master Bernie, we'll ask Master Abel to drop us there with his sky sparrow. We'll kill the frostfire apes as fast as we can, and Master Abel will bring us back here!"
"No! The ice fire ape is not easy to deal with. Our best way is to clean up there step by step and clean up the spiritual beasts around, so that we can maximize our safety when killing the ice fire ape. "Wizard Aitken retorted.
Wizard Kipling tried to persuade Wizard Aitken again, "With our strength and the things we have prepared, dealing with the ice fire ape is not a problem. Kill it quickly so that young master Bernie can be healed faster!"
Speaking of curing Bernie quickly, Wizard Aitken couldn't say much for a while. He just shook his head stubbornly to express his opinion.
The pangolin Knight captain Boughton didn't express his opinion. He just looked at Bernie. In this operation, Bernie's opinion was the most important.
Bernie looked at the two adepts and said in a deep voice, "My body is fine. With the good wine Master Abel provided, the cold poison has been completely suppressed. For safety's sake, let's push forward slowly and steadily!"
"Yes, Young Master Bernie!" The dwarves all bowed.
"You continue to monitor the Ice Fire Ape. If it moves, report to us quickly!" Bernie turned to the Golden Flying Ride and said.
The Golden Flying Cavalry bowed.
"Have a good rest tonight, and we will leave early tomorrow morning!" Bernie waved his hand and said.
Abel did not participate in the dwarves' discussion. When he came back, he went straight back to his tent. As soon as he entered the tent, he saw that Lorraine was busy. On a small table in the middle of the tent, there were several dishes, including roasted pheasants, collected fruits, bread, and red wine.
The pheasants were brought back by Black Wind when he went out in the morning. The fruits should be collected by Lorraine. Lorraine asked Abel for the bread and red wine in the morning. Abel thought that Lorraine was going to eat by herself. Who knew that now they were all on the table.
Although there were not many dishes, Lorraine's little face was sweaty, and some smoky black ash was wet by the sweat and became a few light gray marks.
"Brother Abel, Happy New Year!" Lorraine saw Abel coming in and said to him with joy.
New Year, Abel was in a daze for a while. He didn't expect that this New Year would be spent in the Double Moon Forest, and in the wild. There were no relatives around, only Lorraine was with him. Fortunately, Lorraine remembered this day.
Seeing the marks on Lorraine's face and looking at the roasted pheasants, Abel's heart was very warm. Lorraine was an elf and rarely ate meat, let alone roasted meat. He didn't expect that in order to give himself a New Year's surprise, she could do this.
Abel turned to get some water, took out a towel, wetted it, and silently came to Lorraine. He gently wiped the stains on her little face and said softly, "Lorraine, thank you. Happy New Year!"
Abel's gentle gesture made Lorraine's little face blush. Hearing Abel's words, everything she did today was worth it.
The dinner was not very sumptuous, but Abel ate very happily even though he had taken the hunger potion. He ate all the roasted pheasants and drank some red wine.
Since Abel had just become a wizard, the New Year was still very important to him. Although it was close to the New Year in the Moreton Magic Tower, he did not feel the slightest bit of New Year's atmosphere, so he almost forgot about this day. This was also because he was a new wizard, and he was not used to the life of a wizard. Wizards had a much longer lifespan than ordinary people, so they did not pay much attention to the New Year. Not many wizards would celebrate the New Year.
He wanted to come to this world for only a few years, but he had already slowly integrated into this world. He could peacefully enjoy the careful service of his servants without feeling guilty. He could calmly face life and death and stab his sword into his enemy's heart without batting an eyelid. He could fly into a rage for his loved ones and destroy the fighting power of a country.
Thinking back to his previous life, he accidentally fed the ornamental fish too much food and was sad for a long time. Now, everything had changed.
The image of his parents and family in the original world appeared in his mind. Then, the image of the Knight of Bennett and his mother Nora appeared in his mind. Would his brother Zach blame him for not attending his wedding? Would his brother's bride be the Emily he met before?
Was Lord Marshall still riding the super ox cart and having fun with his friends? Would Ken and the others still be safe?
Maybe it was because of the red wine, but Abel's mind was filled with many thoughts. Lorraine, who could see that he had something on his mind, stayed by his side and silently watched him.
A bottle of red wine was quietly finished by Abel. Although he had a superhuman physique, he was never a person who could drink without getting drunk, especially when he had something on his mind. Even a little bit of wine could be used as a catalyst. Sometimes, it was not the person who got drunk, but the heart who got drunk.
In the middle of the night, the moonlight shone through the gap of the tent and onto the simple bed, reflecting on Abel's face. He seemed to have matured a little.
Suddenly, Abel opened his eyes. His eyes were full of shock. As a senior Knight, his intuition told him that someone was looking at the camp with hostility. This was the wilderness, where there was no one. Without any interference, his intuition was very accurate. He could even sense the direction and distance of that person very clearly.
The soul chain in his heart called Bai Yun and Black Wind. Bai Yun would protect Lorraine and take her away if there was any danger. Black Wind would come and pick him up.
In the blink of an eye, Black Wind's figure appeared outside Abel's tent. Abel quickly walked out of the tent, jumped on Black Wind's back, and rode Black Wind out of the camp.
The defensive circle of the camp was not for the inside. After Black Wind jumped up, he directly jumped over the protective wall made of tree trunks and also jumped over the outer trench at the same time.
Abel's actions naturally could not escape the perception of the dwarves. Whether it was the two dwarven wizards, several Knight captains, or even Bernie at this moment, they all heard the sound of Black Wind rushing out of the camp.
"What a young man!" Although Wizard Aitken did not particularly perceive Abel's actions at night, the camp was so big. Of course, he knew that the elf girl had prepared a sumptuous dinner for Abel yesterday. He thought that Abel rushed out of the camp at this time to find a special gift for the elf girl.
There were also several other dwarves who thought so. Even the six pangolin Knight captains did not perceive the spying outside the camp.
