The 102nd Chapter "The Stronger the Stronger" (Part 1)
Using the fastest speed possible, they flew out of the snowfield surrounding the Sacred Mountain. When they arrived at the edge of the "Forgotten Ice Field", the Old Magician once again took out his magic wand.
There was a clear dividing line between the Ice Field and the snowfield surrounding the Sacred Mountain. On one side was the soft snowfield, and on the other was the hard and cold Ice Field. Standing on the periphery of the ice field and looking inside, everything seemed calm and tranquil, but Du-Wei and the others were already experienced. They knew in their hearts that as long as they dared to take one step inside, they would immediately trigger the huge magic array left behind by the ancient times!
When the old magician was the first to enter the ice field, the moment he took his first step into the ice field, the originally calm sky was immediately filled with wind and clouds. Countless turbulent air currents began to swirl around the area. On the Old Magician's delicate magic wand, the silver gem emitted a soft light once again, trying its best to resist the storm that was gradually getting stronger.
"Quick! Don't waste time! " The Old Magician grabbed Du Wei. At this moment, Du Wei was the most important person in his heart. Holding Du Wei firmly by his side, he then raised his magic wand high like a torch and led the group forward …
Above the icy plains, the whistling of the wind seemed to have gradually turned into the sound of an army galloping through the air! The wind was as sharp as a blade as it ravaged the small magic formation. Standing beside the Old Magician, Du Wei could clearly hear the creaking sound coming from the defensive barrier! He could even clearly see a Wind Blade sweeping past and slashing at the light barrier, creating a slight shockwave from the collision.
The Old Magician's nose began to drip with sweat. He had already used up too much of his magic on the way here. The short amount of time on the Sacred Mountain of the Dragons was not enough for him to recover …
The wind covered the sky and the sun. The strong turbulence in the air was so strong that it even blocked the color of the sky!
The first day of escape was passed with the support of the Old Magician.
On the second day, Du Wei could clearly feel that the Old Magician had used up too much of his magic. The sweat on his forehead froze into small ice beads in the cold weather. Not long after, the Old Magician's face seemed to be covered with a layer of ice. If not for the white steam coming out of his nostrils when he breathed, he would almost look like an ice man.
In order to save the Old Magician's energy, Hussain had already lifted him up. Knight stepped on the hard layer of ice one step at a time, his golden Dou Qi was also ignited, giving everyone a trace of warmth.
"I can't …" The light in the Old Magician's hand dimmed a little. He whispered, "I can't hold on any longer. Du Wei, come and take my place for a while. I need to meditate to replenish my magic."
As Du Wei took the wand, the Old Magician drank the last bottle of Mana Potion. His complexion was slightly better, but his eyes were still full of fatigue. Du Wei also took his place and rested for a while. Gege Wu was now in charge of the magic circle.
"This storm is a little strange." The Old Magician recovered a little. He immediately frowned and said, "The storm in this ice field is strong, but it has never been this fierce before! Don't you think this storm is even stronger than when we came here? "
Du Wei nodded and whispered, "Do you mean that the Dragons can control this storm?"
"No." The Old Magician shook his head. He seemed to be a little weak. Du Wei couldn't care less at this moment. He quickly went to support the old man and carried him forward. The Old Magician's weak voice sounded in Du Wei's ear. "Legend has it that the gods set up this magic circle to prevent humans from going further north. On the other hand, it was to prevent the exiled races in the north from going further south. In addition to these, there is also a very important reason, and that is … to restrict the Dragons."
"Restrict the Dragons?" Du Wei's heart skipped a beat.
"Yes. Although the Dragons are nominally guardians, they have been guarding the Dragon Mountain for so many years. Anyone would be tired of it. Although they are nominally guardians, they are actually imprisoned on the Divine Mountain. This is because the Dragons can't leave the Divine Mountain until their mission is completed. Although the Dragon Race had generally obeyed the mission of guarding the Sacred Mountain for thousands of years, there would occasionally be some Dragon Race members who would travel to the human world, such as the old patriarch. However, if it were only one or two Dragons, it wouldn't cause too much of an impact to the human world. But what if all the Dragons migrated to the human world? I'm afraid that would change the balance of the world. Therefore, the gods were worried that the Dragons would give up on the mission and leave the Divine Mountain after they got tired of it. Therefore, this magic circle of the Ice Field is also a good thing to prevent the Dragons from migrating south. "
Du Wei carefully looked around. Countless storms swept back and forth, countless tornadoes hung upside down from the sky, intertwining together and desperately squeezing his side's defensive magic array … …
"Generally speaking, the Dragon Race is a race that flies. The storms on the Ice Field have formed an insurmountable no-fly zone. Any race that comes here can only walk on the ground! Otherwise, even if they are powerful Dragons, they would have to withstand the terrible storms while flying in the air. I think that except for one or two powerful Dragons, no one would be able to cross the Ice Field. Therefore, this Ice Field also forced the Dragons to stay on the Divine Mountain and continue to play the role of guardians. In that case, I don't think that the Dragons are responsible for this terrible storm. I think that there might be some other mystery behind this storm. "
Du Wei listened carefully to the Old Magician's analysis.
The Old Magician took a breath and continued: "When I first came to this Ice Field, I was alone. That was two hundred years ago. Saimel didn't continue to walk through the Ice Field with me. She separated from me at the Frozen Forest and went back alone. Two hundred years ago, my magic wasn't as strong as it is now, but I could walk through the Ice Field. Although it was very tiring and difficult, I still walked through it. But now? Think about it, when we came here this time, my magic was much stronger than it was two hundred years ago. But in the end … … I almost drank all of my magic potions, but I couldn't hold on. If it wasn't for you and Gege Wu, we wouldn't have been able to reach the Dragon Mountain! What made the storms here stronger than they were two hundred years ago? According to normal magic theory, the longer a magic array exists, as the Mana drains away, the strength of the magic array should weaken, not strengthen. "
After a pause, the Old Magician continued: "When we came here, it was already so difficult … … But now on the way back, I found that the storms here are even more terrible! To be honest, I didn't think that I wouldn't be able to hold on for even a day! Do you remember? When we came here, I was alone for two and a half days! What is it that's causing the storms here to get stronger each time? "
Du Wei looked at the surrounding cumulus clouds that were getting lower and lower, and his face changed slightly: "No matter what, we should be able to walk out of here, right? Even if you, me, and Gege Wu have all exhausted our magic, don't forget that we still have the powerful Medusa in our team! When we came here, she didn't even make a move. "
"You don't have to count on Medusa," the Old Magician sighed, he looked at Du Wei with pity and said: "What a pity! You're really smart, and your understanding of magic is also very fast. You're not even fourteen years old this year, right? At such a young age, and without the guidance of any magician, you can already be considered a rare genius to be able to reach the strength of a level-three magician. But it's a pity, I can see that although you've read a lot of books about magic, the things you learned are completely unsystematic, and are all from miscellaneous books. You have to know that the knowledge in the field of magic is rigorous and profound, and there are many things that are difficult to understand. How can it be recorded in the books that you've read? You haven't even received the most basic of basic magic education, so it's no wonder that you don't understand. At least, we can't borrow Medusa's magic now. Because she's a magical beast! Do you understand? Although she's in human form, she's still a magical beast in human form. According to the natural barrier in the field of magic, magical beasts and humans can't use the same magic, because human magic comes from our own unique magic system, while magical beasts use magic differently from humans because of the magic nuclei in their bodies. So, although Medusa is powerful, she can't help us control this magic array. "
At this point, the Old Magician smiled bitterly: "Don't you find it strange? We've already had a difficult time on the way here, but I didn't ask Medusa for help. Among us, Medusa's magic is far stronger than yours and Gege Wu's. "
At this point, a trace of sadness flashed in the Old Magician's eyes, and he suddenly shouted: "Hussain! Stop! I have something to say. "
Knight was carrying Gege Wu forward, but he immediately stopped when he heard this. Hussain also seemed to feel that something was wrong, and he turned to look at Du Wei and the Old Magician: "What's wrong?"
"We don't have to walk anymore." The Old Magician's face was extremely ugly: "I've calculated, the distance we've traveled today is almost twice as slow as when we came! But our magic can't support it anymore … You must have felt this situation, right? "
Hussain didn't speak, but a gloomy expression appeared on his face.
"I've carefully calculated many times just now, and if we continue to walk like this, we'll use up all of our magic by tomorrow noon, and we won't be able to support it anymore. But by tomorrow noon, we'll only be a quarter of the way there at most. If we continue like this, we'll only die! Tomorrow noon, this terrible storm will tear us to pieces without the protection of the magic array! "
After saying this shocking news, no one in the team was surprised. Whether it was Du Wei or Medusa, they seemed to have expected this situation on the way. Even Gege Wu, who was controlling the magic array, kept his mouth shut and didn't speak. Although this mouse was timid and wretched, after all, he was once an experienced magician, and his estimation of magic consumption was similar to that of the Old Magician.
The only one who spoke was the new member of this temporary adventure team, the elegant QQ Penguin.
"What's wrong? Why aren't we moving forward? " QQ blinked his eyes and gently shook his head. In this place full of storms and snow, he seemed to enjoy it very much. He was originally lying on Du Wei's back with his eyes closed, but at this moment, he jumped down with a plop, stomped his feet on the ground, and then twisted his fat body, walked two circles with his head held high, then looked up and asked: "Why aren't we moving?"
"Because I'm afraid we won't be able to get out." Du Wei sighed. This sentence was said with a trace of helplessness and unwillingness. In the team, only Medusa was still calm, as if nothing in the world had anything to do with her.
"We have to think of a way." The Old Magician's mouth showed a trace of a sad smile, then he looked at Du Wei seriously: "Du Wei, you have to understand, you are the most important one among us! You bear the burden of Aragon's mission, so, no matter what, I can't let you die here … So, I thought of a way, maybe you have a chance to escape. "
Du Wei didn't speak, he just bit his lip and looked at the Old Magician.
"Hussain is Paladin, and Paladin's golden combat qi is no small matter, and Paladin's body is strong enough to be compared to Dragons. Even without the protection of the magic circle, with Hussain's strength as a Paladin, I estimate that he can walk in this storm for a whole day with his own combat qi. " With that, the Old Magician turned to look at Hussain: "My friend Knight, after tomorrow afternoon, we will lose the protection of the magic circle, and there will be no way to escape. Only you can rely on your golden combat qi to survive for one more day. So, I need you to promise me one thing. " The Old Magician pointed at Du Wei: "You can use your golden combat qi to protect the space around you. If you carry someone in your arms, they can also hide under the protection of your combat qi. I want you to carry Du Wei forward! With your strength, your walking speed will be much faster than it is now … "
"But I can only last for about a day." Hussain coldly said: "I still can't walk out of this ice field in a day."
"Then it's up to fate." The Old Magician sighed: "This is the only way. Although the hope is slim, but maybe a miracle will happen and you can walk out of this ice field. I calculated that with your running speed, even if you can't walk out of this ice field in a day, you won't be far behind. Maybe … a miracle will happen. "
No one spoke, and everyone's expression was very complicated. Du Wei looked at his companions and suddenly said: "Maybe, I can summon Saimel?"
