Chapter 193 Snow Forest
The snow forest outside the large patio is not big, and is basically composed of fir and pine trees, which are coniferous tree species.
On the snowfield, only this kind of cold-resistant coniferous trees can survive.
Although the trees in the snow forest are all pine and fir, these tall trees block the severe cold and snow, and also provide a little space for the lower shrubs, grasses, mosses and other plants to survive.
With coniferous forests, shrubs, grass layers, and tundra plants, it naturally attracts many small animals.
"Your Excellency is right!" Charles followed behind Russell and echoed, "Seeing such a lush snow forest on the snowfield, thriving, it can be predicted that humans will sooner or later defeat the snow demons, drive the snow demons and snow ghosts back to their hometowns, and restore the four seasons of Longmian Continent."
"But all this may not be seen by our generation." Russell shook his head.
He was satisfied with the world of extraordinary power in Longmian Continent, but he was not satisfied with the short life span of humans.
Even the dragon rider, the first generation of Shadowflame Grand Duke Quentin Shadowflame, only lived to be 195 years old.
If there were no other opportunities, even if Russell had a contract with the little dream dragon, he would probably only live to be 200 years old at most, and then he would have to return to his hometown.
"Short!" Russell sighed, "Human life is too short."
Charles flattered him, "Dragon is watching, sir, you will definitely be able to ride a dragon smoothly, and it will be more than enough to live to 195 years old."
"Is 195 years old considered long?" Russell shook his head, "Even a wyvern can live for 300 to 500 years, and a dragon can live for more than a thousand years... If I can transform into a dragon, it will be worth coming to Longmian Continent."
"Uh..." Charles paused.
He never expected that Russell was not satisfied with living to 195 years old, and actually wanted to live as long as a dragon.
Catherine next to him said, "My lord, the longest-lived person in the Shadow Flame Grand Duchy is the first Grand Duke. Perhaps there are even longer-lived people in other countries. If you travel all over the Dragon Sleep Continent, you will definitely find the secret of longevity."
"I hope so." Russell smiled.
The group walked in the snow forest for an hour and finished the snow forest without any new discoveries.
They didn't even find a big beast.
The ecology of the snow forest is very low-level and very fragile. The cold climate makes the output of this land extremely scarce, so it can't support too many animals and plants.
"Druk."
"My lord, I'm here."
"You are the head of the Diku Village. Now Diku Village is also helping me farm, and the serfs have enough food and drink. So, you announce to the villagers that hunting in the snow forest is prohibited in the future." Russell said, and then said to Charles, "Write a notice and post it in Diku Village."
"Yes, my lord!" The two took the order in turn.
No one asked, but Russell still explained: "The dragon is watching, hoping that the snow forest will grow slowly and a fantasy beast will appear in the future."
Although the snow forest is fragile, it has also seen fantasy beasts. One of the fantasy beasts contracted by his father, Baron Roman, the Silver Winged Wind Fox, was caught from the snow forest. In order to catch this fantasy beast, Baron Roman led a team and hid on the snowfield for more than half a month.
So Russell hopes that this snow forest will have a chance to breed a fantasy beast after hunting is banned.
"Go back."
The group returned to the big skylight.
Before jumping down, the red-eyed rat king suddenly pointed to the distance and chirped. Following the direction pointed by the red-eyed rat king, Russell saw a group of snow ghosts rushing towards the big skylight.
"Ah, snow ghosts!" Charles shouted quickly, "My lord, hide quickly!"
"Why hide, there are only five snow ghosts!" Russell has hunted countless snow ghosts and is no longer afraid of them.
Seeing these five snow ghosts, I just thought they were here to give me a greeting gift.
Touching the handle of the green ceramic sword on his waist, he calmly ordered: "Tom, Jack, John, James, get ready to fight me!"
"Yes, sir!" The four knights drew their knight swords.
Catherine also drew her broken sword: "Sir, I will fight with you, snow ghosts, my sister and I have hunted them alone!"
Russell glanced at Catherine who was eager to try: "Sweep the side."
At this time, Drucker said: "Sir, why not lead the snow ghosts into the patio, and then surround and kill them in the patio."
"Yes, yes, sir!" Charles nodded hurriedly.
"Show some courage, Charles." Russell shouted, "Just five green skins, not even big green skins, what's there to be afraid of! Drucker, Catherine, and Charles, you sweep the side, pay attention to the surroundings, and prevent new snow ghosts from attacking."
"Yes, sir!" Catherine responded loudly.
Charles took two deep breaths, then drew out his sword, and began to stand sentry with Drucker on the left and right.
At this time, five snow ghosts had already rushed to the front.
Russell bent down slightly and patted the head of the Red Eyed Rat King. The meaning was self-evident, asking the Red Eyed Rat King to protect his safety. After many days of running-in, the Red Eyed Rat King had already understood the meaning of Russell's every move.
Clang!
The green ceramic sword was drawn out.
Russell rushed in to meet the group of snow ghosts.
The main meridians were completely connected, and the fighting spirit sword light was as easy as using an arm. He even practiced the Six Meridians Divine Sword. The green-skinned snow ghosts could not hurt him at all.
In addition, he learned the sword skills from the sword butterfly amber worm, and the whole person was like a butterfly flying through flowers, swimming among the snow ghosts.
Tom and Jack each blocked a snow ghost.
Before they could fight the snow ghost for a few rounds, Russell had already chopped off the head of a snow ghost with a sword. Before the head hit the ground, he shook the tip of the sword, and in an instant, a burst of sword light bloomed, knocking the snow ghost's head away. Crushed into pieces.
When it landed, a marble-sized ice bead formed.
The red-eyed rat king rushed over and flicked his claws, sending the ice beads flying towards Russell, who then picked them up and put them into his pocket.
Then he kept running towards the other snow ghost that was fighting with Tom.
The sword blade flew, the sword light flickered, and in the blink of an eye, a ferocious blue head flew into the sky, leaving only the headless torso still wielding the frozen sword.
The headless torso couldn't see anyone, and it danced in the air. When the head fell, Tom rushed over and chopped the head into pieces with one kick.
"Phew, you are so powerful!" Tom exhaled and endured the fishy smell as he dug out the ice beads.
Looking up, Russell had already helped Jack get rid of the third snow ghost, and then helped John and James get rid of the remaining two snow ghosts at an extremely fast speed.
From beginning to end, not even half an hour passed.
The five snow ghosts turned into five ice beads.
Crack!
Sheathing the sword, Russell casually shook the ice beads in his hand, very satisfied with this unexpected episode.
Little Menglong’s snacks are available again.
"The dragon is watching!" Charles was stunned. He still didn't know how much Russell's strength had changed. "Sir, you... you are simply too great. It's incredible. Your strength has surpassed that of the Great Knight!"
"Close to the Great Knight, but not yet surpassed." Russell said matter-of-factly.
"My lord is mighty!" Drucker shouted loudly.
Catherine's eyes shone: "My lord, you are so handsome when you fight."
"Calm down, I told you, it's just five green-skinned ones." Russell smiled gently, not feeling too proud about hunting five snow ghosts.
To know.
He once hunted and killed four snow demons in his sleep!
