The journey from Xinghe City to Binhai City would take four to five days at the fastest, even if Jiang Ming and his party were riding in a powerful vehicle like the Earth Messenger.
However, I don’t know if God was joking with Jiang Ming. Just when they had just left Quanfu City after walking on the road for two days, a sudden heavy snowfall instantly made the others feel like winter.
The wind and snow were raging, and the sky was gradually getting darker. Therefore, for the sake of caution, the captain of the convoy this time decisively ordered to set up camp and wait until dawn tomorrow before leaving.
However, just one night passed. When Jiang Ming woke up from the warm car, as a chilly wind blew through his body, he suddenly completed the transition from being lost in the lake to waking up.
"I'm going!" Jiang Ming suddenly cursed, then returned to the car at lightning speed and closed the door.
After a while, Jiang Ming, who was finally mentally prepared, walked out of the car wearing a down jacket that he had always felt was unnecessary.
Because the snow around several Earth Messengers had been cleared, he no longer had to worry about getting stuck in the snow.
"Mr. Jiang, you're awake." At this time, Hu Pei, who was specially sent by Meihe Group to take Jiang Ming home, walked up quickly and greeted Jiang Ming with a smile.
"Captain Hu." Jiang Ming responded before asking about the snow.
"Hi, it's okay." Hu Pei first reassured Heijiang Ming, and then continued: "Although this snowfall is a bit heavy, compared with previous years, it is at a normal level. It will delay it for a day or two at most. The distance is not in the way." Hu Pei then told Jiang Ming that if the snow does not melt in the next few days, then with the performance of these Earth Messengers, any snow with a depth of less than one meter will not be able to stop it.
It will be more troublesome if the snow melts. With the weight of the Earth Messenger, although it will not be difficult to move, the moving speed will be reduced due to road conditions.
After listening to Hu Pei's explanation, Jiang Ming felt a little unhappy at not being able to go home early, but he also knew that the current situation was an accident caused by a natural disaster and could not be changed by human intervention.
"Oh, I hope there won't be any more accidents." Jiang Ming looked at the silver-covered Xinghai Forest in the distance and suddenly remembered the first time he went to Xinghe City.
...The group of people finished their breakfast quickly, and Jiang Ming also took action to suppress the behavior of several elves who wanted to continue the snowball fight, and put them obediently into the elf ball.
Thanks to these snowball fight elves, Charizard and Shibao can easily evaporate the remaining snow water on their bodies, and Demon Coral, as a ghost-type elf, is naturally not afraid of these things.
The group of people set off like this, and in order to quickly pass through the snow, Jiang Ming, after discussing with everyone, sent Charizard and Shibao out for a while.
"Scavenger". As the name suggests, the main task of the two elves this time is to use flames to melt part of the snow along Jiang Ming's path until the ground can be exposed.
Just take turns between the two elves. The purpose of this is, firstly, to reduce the obstacles caused by the snow to the convoy, and secondly, to expose all the things covered under the snow, to prevent the Earth Messengers from accidentally stepping on the pit, or being hit by some.
A "Voldemort" type alien beast suddenly attacked him. After all, the high-performance detection device on the Earth Messenger consumes too much energy, and in this case of deep snow, the energy consumption is increased.
Therefore, in comparison, the elf is still hundreds of kilometers away.
"Fuel consumption" Three boxes of energy cubes are more cost-effective. After that, under such circumstances, Jiang Ming and his party completed the day's journey safely. However, due to the dual reasons of season and weather, they did not go to the next city to rest as planned, and could only go to the city some distance away. Spend another night in the wild two hundred kilometers away.
"Hey, when can I go home..." Jiang Ming lay bored on the small bed set up in the back of the car, and couldn't help complaining about the fact that it was snowing sooner or later, but it had to start snowing when he got home. , part-time job is a challenge!
In this way, Jiang Ming vented his unhappiness, his eyelids gradually became heavy, and he fell asleep after a while.
"Jiang...save..."
"Ming...Jiang...I..."
"Jiang Ming...I..."
"...Ming...save...save me..." Jiang Ming, who was sleeping, was finally awakened by the constant voice in his mind. When he opened his eyes and suddenly stood up from the bed, he saw the people waiting for him. Marchado standing beside his bed.
"Are you awake?" Marchado spoke first,
"You should have heard that voice too."
"That voice?" Jiang Ming was shocked when he heard this, but he nodded quickly and said yes.
"Sure enough..." Ma Shaduo pondered for a moment when he saw this, then looked at Jiang Ming and said: "It should be that our old friend has foreseen some trouble. I think we should help him." Old friend?
Jiang Ming looked at Marshado in confusion. When did he and he have a common old friend in Xinghai Forest?
Wait, Xinghai Forest... that tree! ! Jiang Ming suddenly remembered something, and when he looked into Marshado's eyes, he knew that the answer he was thinking of was correct.
"You mean, that tree?" Jiang Ming couldn't help but ask.
"Yes." Machado nodded,
"I was able to recover to the eighth level of strength so quickly. It helped me a lot, so I want to give it back this time." As he said that, Mashado turned his attention to Jiang Ming—— It was clear that the tree could send out such a distress signal, which meant that the enemy he encountered this time should be no less than the last time.
But Marshado is no longer what it used to be. After it passed the fist stone, he realized that as long as he was not a ninth-level being, he was sure to win!
But even so, it couldn't bring Jiang Ming there like last time. Seeing this scene, Jiang Ming, who understood why Ma Shaduo was struggling, said bluntly: "Don't worry, this is the outskirts of the Star Sea Forest. It is impossible for advanced stage beasts to appear. Grandpa Hong and the others are enough." Jiang Ming Seeing that Ma Shaduo was still worried, Ming Ming suggested that he should go to the shadow space to stay first.
With Ma Shaduo's current strength, there is no problem for Jiang Ming to be immune to the erosion of shadow power in the space for a short period of time.
"Then let's do it." As he said that, Ma Shaduo used the [Substitute] skill to copy a body for Jiang Ming on his little bed. Then he placed it between Jiang Ming's eyebrows, and the latter's body slowly sank in. into his own shadow.
