After tricking Ariadotte away, Nok and Leo arrived at the target portal one after another.
Nok had already inquired about it, and the portal he chose was the one leading to the mainland.
And it is a portal in the wild.
This is Nok's favorite target portal.
After all, he and Leo did not have identification documents from other countries.
If you suddenly appear in a city in another country, you can easily be caught as a spy.
Don’t think that with so many countries on the mainland, there will be chaos if there is a tendency for turmoil.
At times like this, the control and testing of identity becomes more stringent.
Only in the wild can Nok and Leo have the opportunity to sneak to other kingdoms and find ways to settle down.
There are always a few greedy tax collectors in the nobility's territory.
As long as the tax collector can be bribed, no one will care if the lord has one or two more subjects in his name.
This is the smuggling plan that Nok came up with.
The guards at the teleportation point did not embarrass the two of them.
As long as the teleport point usage fee is paid, even if it is a necromancer, they dare to let him enter the teleport point.
Anyway, as long as they don't cause trouble in the black market, even if a city in the outside world is destroyed, it will not affect their life in the black market.
After paying enough teleportation fees, Nok and Leo were teleported out of the black market.
After a period of dizziness, the two people who appeared in a cave in the wild finally felt a little more relaxed.
After walking out of the cave, they found that the two of them were in a dense mountain forest. It seemed that there were no black market guards here.
That’s right, there is no charge at all when entering the black market, and you will only be charged when leaving.
Therefore, in this kind of wilderness, there is no need for human hands at all.
As for whether there will be wild beasts or monsters accidentally entering the black market, there is no need to worry.
The guards of the black market are eager for a little extra money to increase their income.
The black market has its own warning system and defensive magic circle.
"Where is this?"
Leo glanced at his surroundings in confusion.
In the snow-covered area, apart from the fact that it is a mountain forest, the specific species of trees cannot be seen at all.
"Looking at the situation, we seem to be in the northern part of the continent. Look, those are beech trees. Most of these trees grow in the northern part of the continent, which is different from the Lion Heart Kingdom."
After all, Nok had read the monastery's classics and had made preparations in advance, so he naturally knew how to distinguish the environment through plants.
"So, we have really left the Lionheart Kingdom. Your throne is really gone."
As Nok's guardian knight, Leo still felt sorry for Nok.
After all, the weight of being a knight for a king is different from that of being a knight for a priest.
"Okay, I've already left and why are you talking about this? That's not the life I want."
"Then you really say goodbye to the past like this?"
"What else can we do?"
"Aren't you going to look for the children in the monastery?"
"Forget it, although I don't know where Elizabeth arranged for them to go, but if she wants to control me, she will definitely catch them and give them good treatment. It is better than staying in the monastery. So. I'm not worried about them suffering at all. Besides, we will eventually grow up and separate."
The two of them chatted without anything to say while walking forward.
There's no way, it's completely white. If you don't distract yourself from chatting and watch too much snow, you'll get snow blindness.
Leading the way was Nok, who kept his probing spell on.
I have to mention something here.
Although Nok's charge of betraying humanity was cleared.
However, his behavior of secretly learning the spells of other professionals still earned him the title of "blasphemer". However, the miracle that day seemed to indicate that the Holy Lord of Nok's faith did not seem to be angry with Nok's behavior.
This is confusing.
However, Nok, who was awakened by Leo, has decided to slowly get rid of this bad habit of his.
If he could find a bishop of the Holy Church to baptize him and register him, Knock planned to become a pure priest.
Magic and other skills he could give up.
After all, becoming a priest of the Holy Church has been his ideal since childhood.
It was also his agreement with Father John.
"Huh? There is actually a river in front of you!"
Nok excitedly led Leo to the river.
The frozen river was very wide, which made them very excited.
Generally speaking, you can always get out of the forest by walking downstream along the river.
Unless the river flows from the mountain into the forest.
In this case, there must be a huge lake in the forest.
No, judging from the width of this river, only the sea can meet the drainage capacity of this river.
"Let's go along the lower reaches of the river!"
Although the river was frozen, the height of the terrain made it easy for the two of them to tell which direction was downstream.
Walking on solid ice, I no longer have the feeling of one foot high and one foot low in the snow, and walking is much easier.
Fortunately, the two of them were ready for the trip. The cloaked man not only wore a thick leather coat, but also prepared a large amount of dry food and water bags.
However, the water in the water bag may have frozen now.
Fortunately, Leo had experience fighting in the snow and brought a pan with him.
After walking for most of the day, the two of them still had not left the forest.
Considering the unsafety at night, the two decided to camp by the river.
Even though they were sleeping in the open, the two of them found dead branches and built two igloos with branches and snow under the trees.
Although I couldn't lie down, I could rest against a tree trunk for a night and avoid the cold wind.
The only danger may be the wild beasts at night.
As long as it doesn't snow at night, they don't have to have snow fall from the trees and knock down the igloo.
In order to make the house stronger, Leo used his sword to cut open the river surface, fetched water with a pan, and poured water on the snow house, and then he poured two strong igloos.
After solving the problem of accommodation, the two made a fire again, boiled the river water in a pan, and simply filled their stomachs with dry food.
Not confident in their own construction skills, the two did not light a fire in the igloos, but piled the fire in front of the two igloos. It not only lights up the river surface, but also gives the two people a sense of security.
After a tiring day, the two of them wrapped their bodies in cloaks and fell asleep next to the tree trunk in the igloo.
There was no need to keep a vigil. Nok removed the magic warning from the monastery and took it away. Now it is placed next to the two of them.
If there is any trouble, the alarm will naturally remind them.
The night in the forest is always lively.
Hungry snow wolves stalk in the snow.
The owl keeps changing positions in the treetops.
They are stalking the wolves.
Their prey is not snow wolves, but they follow the pack.
They can take the opportunity to hunt some snowshoe hares or mice that the wolves dug out of the snow.
Of course, they may also become the prey of the wolves by robbing the prey of the wolves.
But there is no way. Lemmings in winter are very fat, but they are also too cunning.
Having stored enough food, they always like to stay in burrows under thick snowdrifts.
Only on sunny days, they will come out to bask in the sun and dry their fat.
If you want to eat fresh food every day, owls need to take a little risk.
The snow wolves seemed to smell the scent of prey, growling excitedly, and surrounded them in a certain direction.
However, after discovering that the target was the river, the wolves stopped.
There seems to be no reason to approach the frozen river.
When the wolves were lingering, hesitating whether to take risks, a cloud of white mist floated from the woods on the other side of the river.
The wolves were so frightened that they turned around and fled frantically from the river.
The owl on the tree also flapped its wings in panic and flew deep into the forest.
For a time, tranquility was restored on the river bank.
However, the white mist on the other side of the river did not stop moving forward.
It floated to the river and enveloped it.
There was a strange sound of "creak, creak" on the river.
There was not much movement, but the surface of the river that Leo dug out to get water froze again.
There were also animal sounds of "crunch, crunch" coming from the white mist, and the sound seemed very cheerful.
Suddenly, the creatures in the white mist sniffed and seemed to smell an alluring smell.
White mist drifted towards the igloo of Nok and the two men, and the temperature near the igloo dropped suddenly.
The surrounding ice and snow seem to be turning into solid ice.
Snowflakes appeared in the air.
However, just as Baiwu approached the shore, he stopped when he saw the fire.
The creature in the white mist looked at the fire hesitantly, feeling disgusted by the smell of the fire.
At this moment, a white light flew out of Nok's igloo and rushed into the white mist.
"Crunch!"
A panicked scream came from the white mist.
A burst of cold air suddenly burst out from the white mist, sweeping across the entire river, and even the sides of the river suffered disaster.
The fire in front of the igloo flickered violently, the light became dim, and then went out with a puff.
The white mist turned around and drifted towards the other side of the river, as if fleeing in despair.
The white mist ran away, and the white light flew back to the igloo and landed on the cross on Nok's chest.
A piece of rag in Nok's arms, the lingering golden light gradually dimmed and dissipated, as if the scene just now was just an illusion.
The [Annihilation and Holy Light] on Nok's waist also extinguished its own light, rising and falling on his waist with the rhythm of his master's breathing.
Leo, who was in the next room, frowned and tugged on his cloak, seeming to feel very cold.
Unbeknownst to the two of them, they had circled the line of death in their sleep.
The warning circle arranged by Nok has been frozen into an ice mass and has lost its function.
Wait until early next morning.
After waking up, Nok and Leo looked at the ice crystal world in front of them with their mouths open.
The cloak on his body was covered with a thin layer of frost.
Fortunately, they still had thick fur coats under their cloaks.
Outside the igloo, the fire that turned into an ice sculpture was extinguished at some point.
The magic array disk on the ground seemed to be frozen, with several cracks appearing, which made Nok lose interest in taking it back.
There were sharp ice picks hanging on the tree. If they fell suddenly, the two people in their sleep would have turned into a honeycomb.
Snowflakes all over the sky were scattered on the river surface and both sides of the river bank, sparkling in the morning light.
The forest is dyed into a colorful world.
Seeing this strange and beautiful scene, the two decided to leave first.
With such a weird scene, they didn't dare to stay any longer.
give up
