The Taygetus Mountains, located southwest of the city of Sparta, is famous for its five peaks that are interconnected and form a natural barrier for the city of Sparta in the south.
However, it was already covered by heavy snow at this time.
In the warm and humid Siris Peninsula, snow is quite a rare thing. Especially since the highest peak of Taygets Mountain is only over 2,000 meters, it is even more strange to see such a heavy snow sealing the mountain.
A discerning person will know at a glance that it must be the mutated influence of extraordinary power.
Before entering the mountains, everyone put on the thick fur clothing provided by Sparta and walked forward cautiously under the leadership of several young guides.
"Ah, I really feel like I'm back home." Hidrifa sighed.
"How much of your potion has been digested?" Ask asked.
"There's still a quarter left." When he asked, Sidrifa immediately thought of the inhumane training in the past few days, and her face darkened.
There is still a quarter...Asker is also a little speechless.
After finalizing the cooperation with Andrea, he delayed it for two days on the grounds that "the situation in the mountains is unknown and needs to be reconnoitred first", and drilled Hidliefa hard.
It wasn't until the Iron Cross Mercenary Group became impatient that Asker agreed to let everyone enter the mountain.
Next, naturally, Sidrifa must digest "Frost I" as quickly as possible in actual combat, and then quickly take "Giant I".
Of course, two days of preparation is not a complete waste of time, at least all the materials needed to enter the mountain are ready.
For example, fur clothing to keep out the cold, high-calorie chocolate bars, and non-slip snow boots, etc.
Even the sword hilt and gun handle were wrapped with thick strips of cloth to prevent the metal from getting cold and hurting the skin at low temperatures.
Walking along the snowy mountain road, everyone soon saw a snow monster.
The snow monster, which looks like a mutated large ape, is actually a troll of some kind in the snow. It is characterized by extremely developed upper arm muscles and kills its prey through violent hammering and tearing.
If you come into direct contact with them, you will also be harmed by frost abilities.
Before the snow monster could turn around, it was hit by a round of fire from the Iron Cross gunmen, and its chest was immediately filled with bullets.
As extraordinary creatures that focus on physical strength, ordinary firearms have limited lethality against snow monsters. In most cases, they are only used to inflict stiffness. The real killing output depends on the extraordinary mercenaries.
I saw one of the extraordinary mercenaries rushing out and pulling out a big sword from behind with both hands. Flames immediately rose up from the handle of the big sword, and the entire sword body was scorched in the blazing flames.
Obviously, this is an extraordinary person whose main sequence focuses on physics, so using the "Fire I" ability as a weapon enchantment is obviously different from Medea's use of projection spells.
Under the swing of the flaming sword, the snow monster dodged back in fear, and then roared.
It was a deep roar, and its penetrating power was so strong that everyone could even feel the ground beneath their feet shaking.
"Quick fight!" Herman said quickly, "It's calling for companions!"
Everyone quickly increased their attack speed, swung their swords, and shot. The snow monster was worthy of being of troll blood. It had been stabbed more than a dozen times and fired hundreds of bullets, but it still didn't die. It fought in vain with everyone.
At the end of the mountain road in the distance, there was faint snow dust flying in the air, as if there were thousands of troops rushing towards this direction.
"Work harder!" Andrea even joined the battle in person, roaring and joining the ranks of the siege of the snow monster, "Tronlo turned to the left, blocking its evasion route! Hans charged forward, and Lucas gave him a
I'll stab you in the back!"
After all, there was only one enemy, and the Iron Cross mercenaries were very skillful in their attack. They finally dragged the snow monster until it bled out, and was consumed to death on the spot.
Looking around again, I saw seven or eight snow monsters on the mountain road in the distance, who had heard the news and rushed towards me violently.
"The gunman is ready, fire!" Andrea raised his palm, then waved it down forcefully, signaling the gunman to fire.
The purpose of shooting is not to kill, but to use the powerful force and stiffening effect of the bullet to stop the high-speed momentum of the snow monsters and prevent them from rushing into the mercenary group and causing damage.
Suddenly, Andrea seemed to hear something and looked back.
Then he saw that behind the gunmen who kept shooting, the girls of the Blue Sword were surrounding Hidliba, who was doing push-ups on the ground, doing it vigorously.
Ask squatted next to her, holding Nora's mechanical watch in his hand, and reported the number loudly:
"Three hundred and ninety-nine...four hundred!"
Sidrifa lay on the ground, so tired that she almost stuck out her tongue. The girls cheered and went over to massage her shoulders and tap her sore muscles.
Damn it! Andrea was furious.
I'm working my ass off here, but you guys are having a party over there?
Although according to the rules set at the beginning, the two sides cannot steal monsters from each other. Ask yourself, if it was the Cangqing Sword who fired the first shot, Andrea would not let his subordinates assist and help the other party kill monsters for no reason.
Material.
But Andrea was still very angry! He was angry when he looked at Ask's face. When he was angry, he became distracted. A certain snow monster hit him in the chest and sent him flying backwards.
Thanks to the desperate efforts of several extraordinary mercenaries, Andrea was not chased and killed by the snow monster.
Herman helped him up from the side and patted his chest with ice. The coldness slightly weakened his pain.
If you look closely, you will see that the captain's breastplate has been completely shattered.
Thanks to the damaged breastplate, it relieved him of most of the force of the snow monster's hammer. As for the fragments piercing the skin, those were minor injuries that could be recovered by relying on physical strength to heal.
"Why are you distracted?" Herman asked.
"Look at the back." Andrea gritted his teeth.
"It's normal." Heman looked at the Cangqing Sword and commented, "We can't expect them to work for us in vain."
Thinking that all these spiritual materials were made by herself, Andrea's painful expression finally felt better.
Hidliba screamed again from behind, and Asik had already held down her legs and started to make her do sit-ups.
The girls were cheering her up and cheering her on.
What on earth are they doing? Andrea's anger subsided, but then she felt confused.
Ridicule? It doesn't look like it. Our people are all engaged in battle, so we don't have time to see what they are doing.
Exercise? What’s even weirder is, who would exercise on the battlefield? If the muscles are strained, will they be able to fight later?
Paddling? Have they completely given up on fighting for the spoils? No, if they really want to give up, wouldn't it be better to retreat and leave the mountainous area now? Why stay here?
Seeing Aske's calm face again, he suddenly felt a strong sense of uneasiness.
"Be careful with the Cang Qing Sword." Andrea said quietly.
"Are you worried that they will turn around and attack in the end?" Herman was stunned for a moment, "It's unlikely."
"After all, their overall strength is not as good as ours. Besides, there are Spartans who value honor."
"I'm sure that guy has some conspiracy." Andrea said firmly, "Even if it's not a sneak attack, it's some other ulterior purpose."
