On the ice field that day, two tents appeared out of thin air. One was the temporary residence of the two princes, and the other was naturally a magical house that no strangers were allowed to enter.
Boom saw that he had no intention of letting the other party enter the Wonder House, and Rikka even agreed with it. For Boom, although the other party was his son, he was also the prince of the principality.
For Rikka, the Wonder House is her and her brother’s exclusive nest, and its importance is second only to the dimensional space in her belly.
But fortunately, although the two princes have noble status, they don't have any airs. I saw Bjorn lighting a fire to make rice, Umberto collecting firewood, and everything was in order.
The cold wind was carrying drifting snow, and the two princes had already fallen asleep, but they were just stuck together like hamsters. The candlelight flickered in the strange house, and there was also faint laughter.
"Brother, we are free again! Rikka still prefers this kind of life. It would be perfect without those two burdens!" Rikka stood by the stove, while talking, serving a bowl of fish fillet soup for Boom. She didn't say this out of breath. As a contracted beast that merged with its master's soul, Rikka had already noticed Boom's depression, no matter how stupid she was.
But she also knew why her brother acted like this, so she could only choose to turn a blind eye and try her best to adjust her life.
"Really? Let's move out of the palace after a while." Boom took a bite of the fish fillet and meat soup and replied softly.
Although he wanted to agree to his sister's request immediately, he couldn't. On the one hand, his hidden danger had not yet been determined, and on the other hand, he was worried that Rikka would faint again.
A bearskin blanket covered the two of them, Rikka slowly tasted the sugar cake, and Boom combed her long dark purple hair.
"Brother, what do you think we will be like in the future?" Rikka stuffed a small piece of sugar cake into Boom's mouth and asked softly.
"I don't know, and I'm not interested in knowing. I am your brother and you are my sister, that's all." Boom raised his hand to tuck the bearskin blanket for Rikka, then stood up and added a few pieces of charcoal to the iron stove.<
/p>
The bunch of stupid hair on Rikka's head trembled slightly, which was a sign that she was extremely happy. The two were speechless all night until the morning light once again lit up the frozen continent.
As usual, Boom walked out of the Wonder House after breakfast and stared blankly at the sky. Rikka put away the dinner plates, put away the Wonder House, and hung it around her neck.
Bjorn was very curious when he saw this. He wanted to ask, but he was held back by Umber on the side. The Wonder House is a forbidden item of the goblins and has never even appeared on the frozen continent.
If his brother rashly inquired into the matter, it would be fine if he was reprimanded a few words. But if the two mentors were really angry, no one on this ice field would defend themselves and beg for mercy.
Boom exhaled a breath, and then glanced at each other without trace. The group of four people walked towards the north of the village. Sometimes Bjorn and Rikka killed wild beasts, and sometimes Boom and Umber's debate was lost in the cold wind.
in.
But at noon, the four of them stood together. Boom frowned, and then he actually pulled out the black wooden staff. Rikka was curious and eager to try, but was stopped by Boom sternly.
"This thing is called the 'hanging tree'. It is not only a native plant of our frozen continent, but also a natural killer that scares many people."
"The adult body is about thirty meters tall and is accompanied by several branches parallel to the ground. The longest branch is comparable to a willow tree."
"All the branches are covered in an unknown vine, which seems to be different from the tree itself, although their roots always grow within the bark."
"When someone enters the area covered by any of its branches, the vines on its branches will unfold and then wrap its ring-shaped ends around the victim's neck, trapping the victim firmly."
p>
"Eventually, the victim will be hung up by the vines until he suffocates to death. After the target dies, the vines will let go of the body and return to a 'sleeping' state."
The second prince Umber pointed at the strange plant opposite, and then smiled and told the origin of it. Boom was amazed when he heard this, and Rikka's eyes were filled with little stars.
"Doesn't this thing have a fixed habitat? What about its method of reproduction? Does it have special abilities, such as releasing spells or fighting spirit?" Boom thought for a while and then asked.
"Teacher, you are overthinking. There is no so-called habitat for 'hanging trees'. They bloom in the cold months of each year and bear fruit in the warm months of the next year."
"It's just that those fruits are like snowflakes. Wherever they float, there is the destination of new life. And as long as they take root and sprout, they will not move at all throughout their lives."
"And the 'Hanging Tree' doesn't have any special abilities. Apart from those life-threatening vines, it has no other way to attack."
"It's just that those vines are extremely spiritual. Not to mention ordinary people, even the weaker mid-level professionals, many people died with hatred."
The eldest prince Bjorn rarely had a chance to speak, so he kept talking non-stop. Boom nodded slightly, but he didn't like most of the other person's nonsense.
But just when he was about to turn around and leave, Rikka, a naughty ghost, broke free from his restraints. The snow bear skin robe slowly fell in mid-air, and the two short blades glowed with cold light, and then an afterimage was drawn out.
"Rikka! You..." Boom was furious when he saw this. He stamped his feet and quickly chanted the space spell. But a few seconds later, he put away the black wooden staff with a strange expression.
"Hey, hey! Don't keep wrapping it around other people's necks! If you try to use the vines to penetrate your leather armor again, please believe it or not, I will chop you down!"
"Cry! You know how to cry! Can you make a crib? I don't accept useless subordinates."
Rikka didn't encounter any danger after breaking into the attack range of the "Hanging Tree". And judging from his appearance, it looked like he was talking to the "Hanging Tree".
In the end, under the surprised gaze of everyone, the vines of the "hanging tree" quickly woven into a giant shaker, and all the papers shook slightly in a very humane way.
Rikka nodded with satisfaction, and then unleashed the pressure of the beast, directly uprooting the "hanging tree" out of the ice.
"Hey! You can follow me from now on, but if you dare to hurt my brother, I will kill you with my own hands." Liuhua looked at the opponent coldly, and then carved a petal on its surface with a short blade.
Hearing this, the "hanging tree" roared again, and then it dropped all its branches towards Boom. A flash of white light flashed, and the "hanging tree" disappeared out of thin air.
"Can it survive there? There won't be any problems, right?" Boom walked up to Rikka, looking at her with a sad look on his face.
"It shouldn't be a problem. I happen to want a crib, so my brother won't object, right?" Rikka patted her belly and asked expectantly.
"As long as it doesn't bring you any danger, I don't care." Boom sighed and stopped worrying about this issue.
Because the two princes were still watching from the side at this time, even if they really wanted to pursue the case, they would have to wait until they returned to the back of the Wonderful House. But at this moment, the two princes looked at me and I looked at you, and in the end they both chose to remain silent.
