This is definitely a majestic city built in the ice and snow. It is no less impressive than Tianji City. The style of the buildings is relatively rough. The city gate alone is more than 5 meters high. The whole castle is full of a bohemian and wild beauty.
"What a majestic castle. Ice and Fire #中文" Zhang Ning admired sincerely.
According to the map prompts, the name of the castle in front of him is Ice City, and it is the home of the Ice Giant in the northern wasteland. However, Zhang Ning suspected that there might be more than just this ice city in the entire northern wasteland.
There are eight ice giant guards more than three meters tall on both sides of the tall and wide city gate. These guards are different from the guards responsible for guarding the gates in other cities. Other city gate guards usually hold broadswords or spears in their hands, and these guards
The ice giant guard was holding a thick ice pick in his right hand. But Zhang Ning had no doubt that if someone forced their way into the city, an ice pick that could attack from a distance would be more lethal than a long sword or a spear.
Looking through the city wall, I did not find any city defense buildings such as arrow towers. But think about it, if someone attacks the city, there will be a row of ice giants standing on the city wall constantly throwing ice picks down the city, and the effect will be similar to that of the arrow towers.
, there is really no need to waste manpower and material resources on building arrow towers.
Facing such a majestic city, Zhang Ning is in trouble. Ice giants are not friendly to humans. It is definitely impossible to walk in arrogantly. It seems that he does not have the ability to fight in. I wonder if he can find a dog.
Drill into a hole or something.
The top expert on the Heavenly Ranking is actually thinking about drilling into a dog hole. This is simply embarrassing to grandma's house. But besides drilling into a dog hole, do you have any other options?
Yes! Digging a tunnel to get in... might as well be drilling a dog hole directly.
The problem is that there doesn't seem to be a dog cave in the Ice City. These ice giants probably don't keep dogs.[
Zhang Ning looked at the skill attached to the Heart of the Ocean. It seemed that he could only rely on the water escape skill. He didn't know if the liquefied body would attract the hatred of monsters. If it could still attract the hatred of monsters,
, even if you liquefy your body and go in, you will be killed by others after five seconds.
After obtaining the Heart of the Ocean, Zhang Ning had not used this skill yet and had no idea at all, so he could only try it with monsters outside first.
Zhang Ning looked around at the ice giants who were about 50 meters away. The ice giants close to the castle had good eyesight. As long as they were within 45 meters of them, they would be discovered. Fortunately, their ice picks could only be thrown 20 meters.
Far away, otherwise Zhang Ning would definitely not be able to get here alive.
"Water Escape Technique!" Zhang Ning shouted in a low voice and activated the Water Escape Technique skill. His body immediately transformed into a hazy vapor, fluttering, and a vaguely human-like form could be seen. A cold wind blew by and liquefied.
The villain's body swayed, and his arms and legs were almost blown away from his body, which really shocked Zhang Ning.
The water escape technique lasted only 5 seconds. Without further ado, Zhang Ning immediately moved his mind, as if a gust of wind wrapped his liquefied body and moved forward quickly. After the speed increased by 300%, the water vapor floated very fast, and in the blink of an eye
It just passed by the ice giant.
The ice giant glanced blankly, and reflexively threw the ice pick in his hand towards the mass of water vapor. The ice pick penetrated the water vapor and stuck to the ground, splitting apart. Zhang Ning did not suffer any damage. After throwing a piece of ice pick,
, the ice giant had no intention of pursuing him, and just watched Zhang Ning drift further and further away.
There seems to be a way! Zhang Ning couldn't restrain his excitement, but he suddenly stopped walking. When the state disappeared, he almost bumped into another ice giant in front of him.
The ice giant let out an angry roar and swung the ice pick in his hand to hit Zhang Ning on the head. Zhang Ning reacted quickly and hurriedly rolled to the right.
With a "Bang!" sound, the ice giant hit the ground with an ice pick, and scattered ice shards fell all over Zhang Ning, but he did not suffer much damage.
After the blow missed, the ice giant waved his hand and threw the ice pick towards Zhang Ning.
In order to avoid the ice pick attack, Zhang Ning had to roll continuously, rolling his body several times on the snow, and rolled behind the ice giant with snowflakes all over his body. Taking advantage of the opportunity of the ice giant to turn around, Zhang Ning climbed up in embarrassment.
stand up.
He got up, but there was not enough time to regain the distance. Zhang Ning had to grit his teeth and draw his sword to start a close combat with the Ice Giant. However, facing a big man like the Ice Giant who turned relatively slowly
, Zhang Ning was able to handle it with ease.
It took about 5 minutes to finally kill the ice giant in his hand. The experience gained was 15 times that of the ice giants on the edge of the wasteland. From this, Zhang Ning estimated that the level of these ice giants was at least
It has exceeded level 160.
Ice giants above level 160 are more than 60 levels higher than myself. No wonder they can still be spotted by them from more than 40 meters away.
The time for water escape is two hours. Zhang Ning now has to wait for two hours before he has a chance to enter the city. Of course, these two hours cannot be wasted, so first practice with these ice giants outside the city. If you can kill one
Count one.[
Two hours later, Zhang Ning pulled out the long sword from the chest of the 20th ice giant, bent down to pick up a piece of level 140 orange heavy armor equipment and dozens of gold coins, put them into the package, turned around and strode towards the ice city.
Walk towards the city gate.
On both sides of the city gate, a total of 16 ice giant guards were still guarding there conscientiously. Even if there was any disturbance nearby, they would not escape his eyes.
When he reached a place about 50 meters away from the city gate, Zhang Ning did not dare to move forward. If he continued to take a few steps forward, he would probably be discovered.
Zhang Ning took a deep breath, quickly activated the water escape skill, and then rushed into the castle like a gust of wind. The sixteen guards at the door seemed to feel something, and at the same time they turned to look at the mist representing Zhang Ning's body. Zhang Ning
Cold sweat broke out. People who are entrusted with the important task of guarding have extraordinary eyesight. It is said that the guard of Zhongnanhai can remember all the vehicles that have the right to enter and exit that place. In case the guards of Ice City are like that.
If you have sharp eyes, wouldn't it be the end?
After passing through the city gate like a gust of wind, the sixteen guards did not pursue him in the end, nor did they call anyone. Zhang Ning finally breathed a sigh of relief, but he was immediately blinded again. The pattern inside the city gate of the Ice City is very different from the secret of heaven.
The city is almost the same. After entering the city, there is a small city gate square. Both sides are empty. It is difficult to find a place to stay. If you want to run to the building opposite the square to hide, you obviously don't have enough time.
Seeing that four seconds had passed for the skill, and there was only one last second left, Zhang Ning jumped into a huge flower garden next to him in desperation.
As soon as the body entered the flower garden, it solidified immediately.
However, the flower garden built by the ice giant is several times larger than a human flower garden, and the load-bearing plants in it are more than two meters high. As long as Zhang Ning hides in it and does not move around, he should not attract anyone's attention. Fortunately, he only has
At 1.8 meters tall, if he grew up like Yao Ming, he would definitely be exposed. This was the first time that he felt the tangible benefits of not being tall.
After hiding himself, Zhang Ning finally had time to calm down and observe the situation outside through the dense branches and leaves. At first glance, Zhang Ning's heart suddenly shrank, and he saw neat rows of people on both sides of the city gate square next to the city wall.
There is a row of trebuchets as tall as men and horses. The thick curved beams of the trebuchets stand high, and the thick base squats there giving people a very stable feeling. The whole trebuchet is full of evil war beauty.
Unexpectedly, there are so many trebuchets here. What does this mean? It means that these ice giants have mastered the technology of manufacturing trebuchets. This trip was indeed not in vain.
However, it is not an easy thing to find the pattern of the trebuchet in this dangerous castle and try to get it. To accomplish this, luck may be more important than strength.
The area around the city gate square was very busy, with ice giants constantly coming in and out. Zhang Ning was not even given a second of free time. He had to patiently hide in the flower garden without daring to move. He stayed like this.
Two whole hours.
Seeing the water escape skill icon light up, Zhang Ning was as happy as seeing a prisoner with a release notice. He had observed carefully in the past two hours and knew that there was most likely no one in the building opposite the square.
It can provide you with a temporary hiding place.
Zhang Ning took a deep breath and activated the water escape skill again. His body turned into a ball of water vapor and quickly floated towards the opposite side of the square, and then quickly floated from his mouth into a small dark room opposite the square.
The moment he entered the house, his body became solid again.
"Who?" an old voice said.
Zhang Ning was startled at first, but he calmed down immediately. This voice may be considered normal for humans, but for an ice giant, it seemed somewhat powerful. Zhang Ning immediately concluded that the owner of the voice was an old man.
He is a frail and sickly Ice Giant. Such an old Ice Giant should not pose a threat to him.
However, it would be troublesome if the other party calls someone.
With the dim light, Zhang Ning quickly glanced at everything in the room and hid behind a huge box silently.
"Duh~!" There was a sound of crutches hitting the ground, and then Zhang Ning saw a hazy, huge black figure slowly walking in from the room outside.
There was a sniffing sound...
"I seem to smell human breath." The old ice giant man on crutches said to himself.
Zhang Ning's heart suddenly sank to the bottom, thinking that he couldn't be so unlucky. When he came in, he met an ice giant old man with a nose sharper than a dog.
