A retired magician raises a bucket daily

Reed thought about it for a few seconds, and decided not to say anything. He suspected that Jason would ignore him after he finished speaking.

So he could only take advantage of Jason's inattention, and before they were about to fall to the bottom of the pit, he used the wind element to support himself, and faked the bottom into a wind hole to reduce the acceleration of gravity.So the two of them just rolled around at the bottom of the pit without any injuries.

Reed got up from the ground, brushed off the broken snow on his body, pretended to be surprised and said, "I'm so lucky."

Jason felt a little strange no matter how he thought about it, where did the wind come from in this ghost place?But he couldn't find evidence, so he had to say, "Don't do it again, you should pay attention to safety as you said."

Reed obediently responded, and then began to re-observe the current environment.

This place can't be regarded as a pit, it has a unique hole in the sky, the front is actually very wide, it is the second layer of this ice field.Row upon row of icicles hang down high and low, white frost fog floats above, and there is a pine forest in the distance, with no end in sight, the roots of the trees are rooted under the hard ice and snow, and every branch is covered with thick ice crystals.

Suddenly he vaguely heard someone singing softly, the voice was ethereal and soft, floating over from afar.

"Did you hear the sound?" he asked Jason.

Jason nodded. The song was in an unintelligible language, but they could feel the emotion contained in it.

Sad and painful.

As if by magic, it made his chest feel sore and bitter, and he almost burst into tears.

Before he could react, he had already taken off the hood. Jason came back to his senses and suppressed the emotions in his heart, "Something's not right."

"Well, don't listen." Reed seemed to recognize what it was, and covered Jason's ears with his hands.

His eyes were extraordinarily pure against the icy blue, the color of his irises became lighter, and his fingers were cold, sticking to a small piece of skin behind his ears. Jason and he looked at each other for a few seconds, and then He moved away again, glanced down, and saw his thin gray shirt, which was a little wet and stuck to his body because it rolled around on the ground just now.

"what happened?"

Reed took his hand away after confirming that he couldn't hear the singing.

"It's the singing of goblins, and humans are easily bewitched by them."

"Like a siren?"

Reed shook his head, "Sirens bewitch human beings to death. Fairies are different. They will hide human beings and take human beings to the world of fairies."

As he spoke, he frowned again, "But how could there be goblins here?"

"Isn't there everything here?"

"Fairies...are sheltered, just like you can't see angels here." Reed said, "Fairies hate demons. They have been hiding in their own world since the end of the Age of Gods. It rarely appears in the present world."

"Then go and have a look." Jason grabbed his wrist, as expected, his hand was already cold.

"Put on the hood first," Reed was taken aback, then said, "It's very cold."

But you look colder.

Jason glanced at Reed with some concern, and found that the vampire didn't show anything on his face.

"Is this lake water?" Reed suddenly realized that there was a whole lake here, but because there was no wind, the water surface was extremely calm. At first he thought the lake was frozen, but now that he looked carefully, it was simply a flowing lake. , there is no freezing in such a temperature environment.

The color of the lake is light blue, clean and beautiful, but the color gets darker as you go down, and you can't see anything clearly.

"There seems to be something there." Jason pointed to the center of the lake.

Reed squinted his eyes, and the lake seemed to be a cage made of ice and snow.And what is locked inside.

"The goblin...they've got the goblin inside."

"That's the core?"

"I'm not sure," Reed said, "get her out first."

Jason squatted down and put his hands flat a few centimeters above the lake, feeling the temperature of the water.

The cold air came out from there, it was bone-piercingly cold, he even felt that as long as a person stayed inside for a few seconds, even the bones would freeze.

"What do you want to do?" Jason looked up at the ceiling above. There were dense icicles hanging down there, and the ice surface was extremely hard, so the hook gun could not be used.

Reed drew a magic circle on his palm. When he went out suddenly, he didn't bring anything. He didn't have a magic dress or a gemstone to store magic power. He could only drive the magic circle with the remaining magic power in his body.

magic circuit.It seems to be called this thing, and he showed it to himself not long ago.Jason could see a light glow under the other's dark shirt.

Reed undid the top button of his shirt, "I'll see if I can get her out."

After speaking, Jason saw him take off in place and fly straight across the lake.

Jason: "..." Fooled!

Reed was born with the wind element, and the magic he knows most is also related to 'wind'. The magic circle he drew just now uses the wind to surround his body to prevent him from being soaked by water. The ice prison is several meters below the lake. , he stayed above for a while, then lowered his head and plunged into the water.

The wind couldn't dispel the cold. Although the lake water didn't touch his body directly, the cold air passed through the wind layer and eroded his body pervasively.

So cold.

Reed shivered, he was afraid that if he stayed for a while, his body would become stiff.

Jason stood on the shore of the lake, watching Reed's figure gradually become blurred.

Suddenly a black shadow appeared in his peripheral vision, and he looked over it intently, it was swimming from the other side of the lake, very fast and huge in size.

It's a giant snake.

The snake scales are also ice blue, and each piece is very smooth, reflecting the light of the glacier.

It was swimming towards Reed, and Jason saw the two slender and sharp teeth when the snake opened its mouth on the shore.

This is not comparable to the small fangs of vampires.The snake could swallow a vampire directly with its mouth open.

He called out Reed's name, and then he remembered that the other party should not be able to hear him now.

Hold.

He took out his gun and fired a few shots at the snake. Most of the damage was eliminated when the bullet entered the water, and it was like being hit by a small stone when it hit the snake's scales.

Jason ran to the other side and took out a bat-shaped dart from his pocket.The ground under his feet was icy. Halfway through the run, his feet slipped and he almost fell, so he lowered his center of gravity and slid his body sideways, using his strength to slide forward for a while, and threw out the bat dart.

The flat weapon made only a small sound as it sank into the water, cutting a path through the water and shooting straight for the snake's eyes.

Those huge yellow vertical pupils blinked suddenly, and the closed eyelids bounced the dart away.

Fortunately, Jason's goal was also achieved. The giant snake was obviously enraged. It turned its head and swam towards Jason. Snake Xingzi, who was even bigger, stared at him like an ant with the cruel vertical pupils of a cold-blooded animal.

This snake even has scales on its belly?

Inappropriately, Jason was reminded of several disaster thrillers.

certainly.In the end, humans won.

Reed also saw the giant snake, and seeing that its attention was attracted by Jason, he took the time to try how to open the ice prison.

The goblin in it was sleeping, and Reid swam around it, and saw a small magic circle on the top of the ice prison, which was spinning constantly, so he drew out the dagger he carried with him, aimed it at the center of the magic circle, and stabbed it straight down. .

The magic circle was stuck and could not be turned again, and the entire ice surface on it cracked with a click.

Reed picked up the goblin, and the wind element carried him and the goblin directly to the shore.

He put the goblin under the pine and cypress tree not far away.

On the other side, Jason was trying to avoid the attack of the giant snake.

The snake flicked its tail, and the splash of water turned into a small ice pick in the air, flying towards Jason.

Good guy, this is still a group method.

Jason returned fire with two guns. His marksmanship was very accurate, and the fatal ice picks were almost missed by his bullets.

Reed chanted the spell in a low voice, and the enhanced magic seal immediately filled his whole body.Reed's body shook a bit, the loss of a large amount of mana made his supporting body weaker, and he bit the tip of his tongue hard.The wind supported his body, and the blast rushed towards the giant snake with a roar.

The snake opened its bloody mouth to bite him. Reid changed his body shape and managed to avoid it. He slashed across the snake's pupils with a dagger. When the snake closed its eyes, it turned over on the snake's head. The blade pierced the top of the giant snake's head without hesitation.There are the softest scales of the giant snake. Just like Achilles' heel, this giant snake whose whole body is protected by scales also has weaknesses.

The giant snake screamed in pain and struggled in the water. The lake water slapped on the shore layer by layer, forming a rippled ice surface.

Reed gritted his teeth and cut open his palm neatly. Bright red blood flowed down from the palm of his hand and flowed into the snake's wound along with the dagger.

The dagger glowed golden in the flesh and blood, and there was only a "snapping" sound. The giant snake was pierced by the golden long sword from the top of its head to its jaw. It finally stopped struggling and fell down.

The phantom of the long sword also turned into light scraps at that moment.

The snake's head fell heavily on the ice, cracking it.

Jason ran over to catch Reed, who had no strength and looked like he was about to pass out at any moment.

The young man's head rested on his chest, his breathing was weak, his whole body was cold, and his face was even less complex.

He carried the man under the tree and found some branches from the few trees that had been knocked down in the battle just now.It is extremely difficult to start a fire at this temperature. He tried several times before he succeeded, and his hands were shaking.

Hate to say it, but still...thanks to Batman for the gear.

He took off his jacket and put it on Reed, and finally wrapped him in his arms again.

"It's so cold..." Jason lowered his head and heard Reed muttering something when he got closer.

He took the bleeding hand, put his chin on Reed's shoulder, and slowly bandaged it.With the cold ear tip against his face, Jason let out a breath and said in a low voice:

"Understood, share your temperature."
