"Retreat into the Frost Grove?" Qualkik was stunned for a moment, then frowned.
"This must be the idea of that damn traitor Nilasek!
There are death ice cellars everywhere in the Frost Forest. Legendary strong men are not afraid, but once high-level professionals fall in, they can't even think about climbing out!
Damn it, most of their subordinates are projections of monsters from hell. Even if they all die, they won’t feel any distress at all, but we have to consider the life safety of our soldiers..."
"Big Chief, what should we do?" Clough asked.
"Well, let's stay put for now. The exit on the other side of the Frost Woodland is at Gale Bluff. Unless Niracek wants to push himself into a dead end, he will never go through that way..."
Qualkek pondered for a while, and then continued.
"Send someone to watch them. If they really hide in the Frost Grove, have Mr. McCas and Chasi lead people to block the exit for me.
There is no food in the Frost Forest, and the legendary strong people also need to eat, so I want to see how many days their supplies are enough to last them!"
"I understand, Chief, I will do it right now."
Clough nodded, quickly turned around and ran towards the direction of the legion's station.
Seeing him leave, Qualkek frowned again.
In the previous battle, due to Xue Hua's sudden promotion to Legend, several of the Evil Contractors were frightened and retreated directly.
Now they have to burrow into a dead end like the Frost Grove...
This seemed like a panicked move out of desperation, but Qualkirk felt it was not that simple.
In his impression, Niracek was an extremely calm and cautious guy. Although such a person seemed timid and cowardly, Qualkek, who was familiar with his character, never dared to look down on him.
In particular, Nilasek has been interested in geographical knowledge since he was a child, so he left the tribe early and traveled around the world.
Although he, Qualkek, has lived in the Arreat Mountains all his life, he dare not say that his understanding of this area is better than that of Nilasek.
In fact, Niracek even knew many hidden entrances to underground glaciers and caves in the mountains that even his ancestors didn't know about - he had revealed this during his ancestor's trial ceremony. From that time on, he
Already very familiar with the mountains near Harrogas.
A long time ago, there were ancestors who praised Nilasek's knowledge - don't get me wrong, even among the barbarians, people with knowledge can gain the respect of the tribe just like people with power - they called him "
"Son of the Mountains" and "Messenger of the Mountain Spirits", because his understanding of the geography of the mountains allowed him to help the tribe solve many problems that were difficult to solve before.
But now, when the "Son of the Mountains" becomes an enemy of the tribe, his store of knowledge is not so wonderful for Qualkek...
"What does this guy want to do?
Is there any secret passage leading to the underground glacier in the Frost Forest?"
Qualkek's brows frowned more and more, and he had an unpleasant premonition in his gut. This premonition told him that if Niracek was allowed to carry out his plan, they would probably be in big trouble soon.
But the problem is that the Frost Forest is too dangerous for other professionals, and if just a few of them legendary level professionals enter, there is no guarantee that they can catch those slippery evil contracters - especially
On the premise that they still have countless demonic projections that can be used as cannon fodder.
Therefore, even if he knew that Nilasek might be leading the evil consortium to engage in some conspiracy, Qualkek had no good way to stop him. He could only guard against this guy's bluff and play back with him.
...
Just when Qia Xi and McCas led the professional army to block the entrance to the Frost Woodland, deep in the Frost Woodland, near the foot of a cliff, a group of people in silver-white robes were quietly following the leader.
Walk forward along the foot of the mountain.
This team is wrapped in a layer of anti-detection mirror magic, and the silver-white robes they wear can also play a very good concealment role in the snow.
There are nine of them in total, and judging from the auras emanating from their bodies, they are all legendary powerhouses.
This group of legendary strong men remained silent all the way, and the atmosphere was oppressive and solid.
The culprit responsible for creating such a strange atmosphere was the leader at the front.
Whether judging from his temperament or the distance between him and his companions at the rear, this man felt incompatible with the others, as if he was being forced to lead the way for the enemy with a knife pressed against his waist.
Same.
But judging from the auras emanating from all of them, it is clear that they all belong to the same organization - the Evil Contractors.
That's right, the leader who was leading the way was Nilasek, who had just been kicked out of his temple not long ago.
Since losing his temple, this former elder of the barbarian tribe has been in a state similar to self-exile. He is silent, does not communicate with anyone, is lonely and difficult to communicate, but because of the previous Anya
He is deeply trusted by Baal, the God of Destruction.
Baal even asked him to take over the leader position of the previous ice mage Marvin in this mission. Let this "newcomer" who just joined the team of evil covenanters lead the actions of all other legendary evil covenanters.
The Demon God's trust puzzled the other Legendary Evil Contractors, but they were neither able nor dared to resist their master, so they could only let it go.
In the previous battle on the frozen highlands, Niracek never issued any orders. He just allowed the other legendary evil contracters to command the demon projection army and watched them retreat steadily under the powerful offensive of the professional army.
Their escape route has been blocked. The collapse of the Crystal Cave and the fall of the Temple of Nilasek have turned the frozen plateau into a dead land surrounded by mountains on two sides and facing a cliff on one side.
No one knew what Niracek was thinking. Seeing that the mission was about to fail, all the legendary evil contracters had other thoughts in their minds.
Anyway, the leader of this mission is the new weird guy, so all we have to do is put the responsibility on him.
Besides, this is indeed his fault!
However, at this moment, Nilasek, who had been silent all this time, suddenly issued the first order to them - all the legions shrank to the northwest of the frozen highlands, preparing to enter the frost forest for temporary refuge.
As soon as this order came out, the first people to jump out and oppose it were the two legendary barbarians, the Evil Contractors—the Maquin brothers.
Compared with others, the Maquin brothers are the ones who know the most about the Evil Pact and are also the ones who hate Nilasek the most.
When they rebelled against the clan, Niracek personally led the pursuit, using his geographical knowledge of the Arreat Mountains to force the two brothers into dangerous situations several times.
Therefore, the two of them have always been deeply wary and malicious towards this newly added "old friend". When Nilasek proposed that they all go into the Frost Grove to escape, they were naturally the first to jump out and object.
The Marquin brothers were also members of the barbarian tribe when they were young, and they also knew very well about some of the forbidden and death places around Harrogas.
The death ice cellar in the Frost Woodland and the only exit, the Gale Cliff, are both terrifying areas that are explicitly forbidden to enter by the clan, especially the latter. It is true that even a legendary strong person may not be able to come out alive after entering.
The two brothers told other people about this incident, and others couldn't help but also questioned Niracek's order.
But in the face of doubts, Niracek had no intention of explaining anything. He just picked up his cane with a cold face, said "Come here if you want" and walked into the Frost Forest alone.
