The sky is clear, and the wind and snow are a little bit less. This is a rare sunny day in the extreme north.

Early in the morning, the heavy gates of Frost Snow City were pushed open, and a large group of people poured out.

Residents in the city wanted to explore the giant's secrets, but not everyone had the ability. After discussing, they sent a group of representatives to accompany Xiu and others, including the familiar Frostwolf mercenary group.

Dozens of people, plus a group of frost wolves, white bears, snow foxes and other pets, the mighty team left under the eyes of the townspeople.

They have no exact goal, only a general direction, no one knows when the journey will reach the end, and no one knows what is waiting for them at the end, but everyone is full of expectations.

"Look, there is Ghost Crying Mountain in front!" Irene pointed to a low snow mountain in front of her and said loudly.

This is the fifth day since the group left Frost and Snow City. They walked into the deep mountains. Except for the snow-covered forest and the occasional trace of wild animals, they found nothing.

Sophie's physical condition was up and down, and her mental state was a little worse after going out to sleep in the city.

Irene and Bilaisi, who are full of energy, took turns to take care of her, which finally didn't make her condition worse.

Sophie glanced at the snow-capped mountain that Irene was pointing at, but found nothing special. "What's wrong with Guiku Mountain?"

Irene said enthusiastically: "Ghost Weeping Mountain is the farthest place we have explored on record. Although I have not seen it with my own eyes, my brother has been here before. Look at the top of the mountain, is there something in it? ? That is the road sign made by the predecessors."

They looked over intently, and sure enough, they saw something shiny on the top of the mountain.

"Why is it called Ghost Crying Mountain?" Bi Laisi touched her chin, "The name is so strange!"

Irene said with a smile: "Ghost crying mountain, of course there are ghost cries! It's true,? It's super scary. Don't be scared to pee your pants later!"

The two of them didn't believe it at all. The girl had never been here before, so she must be scaring them.

But as soon as he approached the Ghost Crying Mountain, the mournful cry of "Wuwu" drifted over, as if there were countless resentful souls crying there, and a group of people stood on end when they heard it.

Rao Lu Kai, who is so well-informed, feels a little nervous in his heart, and he can't help but get closer to Eli.

It doesn't matter, Lu Kai thought, he has a boyfriend, even if there are ghosts, it's okay!After all, the one next to him is the God of Light, who is born to restrain evil and death. The Ghost King was still suppressed by him, and ghosts have to kneel when they meet Eli!

Irene, who was still scaring others before, almost cried because she tried to cuddle with the other two girls, but the other two girls were not normal girls.

Sophie looked calm. There were many more terrifying sounds and sights at the bottom of the sea. She wasn't afraid at all.On the other hand, Bi Laisi looked eager to try. She wanted to find out the true face of the ghost crying. It would be great if it was a real ghost. It has been so long since I have been out on an adventure that I haven't beaten an authentic ghost!

Crying Irene:? ? ?

Is there something wrong?

The dazed Irene pounced on her brother for protection, and Seven helplessly comforted her: "Didn't I tell you that there are no ghosts here, don't cry."

Irene cried even louder, "But it's really scary!"

Most of the residents of Frost Snow City have heard of Guiku Mountain, but they don't know anything about it.

Sai Wen explained: "Ghost Crying Mountain is a huge lump of ice. The snow accumulated on it buried its true appearance, so it looks like a mountain. There are many holes in the ice lump, and the wind here is relatively strong. The wind blows When passing through those cavities, it will make a sound like a ghost crying, and occasionally you can hear strange whispers, growls, etc."

Lu Kai let go of the hand holding Eli's arm, stroked his wrinkled sleeves, and then stood up straight, as if he had never been cowardly.

Eli was a little amused, he couldn't help pinching Lu Kai's bulging cheeks, and deliberately teased him: "Seven is wrong, there are other things here."

Lu Kai stared over.

Eli smiled and said, "It's true. Although it's not a complete ghost, the dark aura of dead objects is very strong. Maybe many people have died here."

Lu Kai was silent for a long time, then slowly stretched out his feet, taking a step closer to him without any trace.

"I'm not afraid of ghosts, really!" Lu Kai said firmly, "I'm just a little cold, come on, hug me a little, and protect me from the wind."

Eli snickered, "Okay."

Everyone approached the Ghost Crying Mountain, and sure enough, as Sai Wen said, there was cold and hard ice under the thick snow.I don't know how this ice bump came from. After sweeping away the covered snow, you can almost see through the entire mountain. This ice is pure and unstained, but it is frighteningly cold. Touching it seems to freeze the blood flow.

There are indeed many cavities in the ice bumps, large and small, some go straight, some twist and turn, and there is no pattern to follow.

The marks left by the adventurers on the mountaintop were not the bright things they thought they were at first.

What shines is the huge ice edge extending from the ice lump, pointing straight to the sky, like a sword and a tower.On the top of the ice edge is a bright ribbon fluttering in the wind, which has faded a lot of color due to the wind and snow. It is the real signpost left by the previous generations of adventurers.

Seven climbed up and replaced the ribbon with a new one, and the bright color suddenly became very conspicuous.

Another gust of cold wind swept past, and the sound of the wind passing through the hollow was louder and sadder.

In that cry, there were vaguely mixed with a few vague whispers, very much like a cry floating from the depths of the ground.

"...Zebrus...Woo...Queen...Brilliant..."

Those whispers were shattered by the cries, and only a few words drifted to the world.

Lu Kai stood up rubbing his aching ears from the cold, and asked, "Cebrus? Is this a place name?"

Eli nodded and explained to him: "Seples is the third largest city of the giants. The first is the capital of giants where the giant queen Amanda lives. Cyprus, where giant warriors gather, leaving a name in Cyprus is the glory of a giant warrior's life."

He put his warm palm on the extremely cold iceberg, felt it quietly for a moment, then withdrew his hand, and said, "Do you still remember the curse?"

"Of course." Lu Kai nodded, how could he forget something that almost caused Xiu to take the blame.

"This iceberg is somewhat similar to the curse." Eli said, "It is also a collection of the resentment of the dead. They come from the Cyprus warriors who fought against the invisible fate to the last moment. Their fearless courage and genocide Grief and resentment, resentment towards fate...these gathered together and condensed into this unmelting iceberg."

Lu Kai was a little surprised, "Didn't Amanda tell everyone to evacuate to the capital of giants? Could it be that the capital of giants is just around the corner?"

"The capital of giants is still far away." Eli shook his head and said, "Warriors never fear the enemy's strength and treachery, nor are they afraid of sacrifice. They will not retreat, but will only guard their honor and dignity until they The moment you fell."

He raised his eyes to see the ice edge pointing straight to the sky from the top of the iceberg, and then reached out to catch a piece of pure white snowflakes.

Snowflakes melted into water in his palm, and the drops were stained a cloudy gray bit by bit.He tilted his palm to let the water drops fall into the thick snow, and with the soft sound of "Zi la la", a wisp of gray mist rose from the small pit eroded by the water droplets.

"The endless snowstorm in the extreme north." Eli lowered his eyes and said in a low voice, "The grievances of the giants have been incomprehensible for thousands of years."

He raised his eyes and glanced at Sophie, who was climbing the mountain with Bilaisi, quickly looked away, and said to Lu Kai: "This is Cyprus, and we are heading towards the capital of giants, so when we came, the land of frost and snow The city is Autophes."

The once glorious three major cities of the Giant Clan have been annihilated in the long river of time, leaving only such a faint trace for future generations to pursue.

A group of people did not stay in Ghost Crying Mountain for a long time, and the mournful cries really chilled people's hearts. Even experienced mercenaries who were used to seeing joys and sorrows all year round could not calm down in such an environment.

They quickly continued to move towards the target direction, and the road ahead was still covered with snow.

"Passing Ghost Crying Mountain is a place we don't understand at all." Seven said with a serious face, "We need to be more careful."

This place, which is casually called the Extreme North Mountains, is a restricted area that is difficult for ordinary people to set foot in.

No one knows how far these mountains stretch, and no one knows what secrets are buried in the depths of the mountains. The citizens of Frost and Snow City living on the edge of the mountains only know that there is no adventurer who has crossed the Ghost Crying Mountain. been back.

Xiu said to Severn: "Maybe you should go back. You still have your sister and friends with you. You shouldn't venture into such a place. If you are really curious about the depths of the mountains, when we come back alive, I will to find you."

Seven smiled and said: "Everyone in Frost Snow City is proud of the thin blood of giants. We have spent our entire lives following in the footsteps of our ancestors, trying to peek into the glory of the past. Now the opportunity is before us , no one is willing to retreat, we will not be retreaters who shame our ancestors, we will go forward just like them."

Xiu shrugged, knowing that he had made up his mind, so he stopped trying to persuade him.

Saiwen asked him instead: "Xiu, you were not born in Frost and Snow City, you don't have our persistence, why do you still come here?"

"I'm not too sure." Xiu said a little blankly, "Maybe it's because of the parents I've never met, because of my life experience... I can't tell the reason, but I just think I should come."

"The reason doesn't really matter." Xiu thought silently for a while, then laughed again, "I'm an adventurer, chasing unknown secrets makes my blood boil, and this reason is enough for me to face any danger."

"Take a sip of warmth." Seven threw the jug to him, "Although you didn't grow up in Frost and Snow City, you have the same characteristics as us. I think it has the influence of blood, maybe your family the elements of?"

He looked at Lu Kai who was nestled softly in Eli's arms, and said curiously: "You don't look like your brother at all, so who influenced you?"

Xiu said: "Probably my mother Caroline. She was a mercenary when she was young, but she is just as brave and powerful now. Sometimes I suspect that she is also a female warrior of the giant race."

Hearing his description, Seven burst out laughing, and said after laughing: "How long have you been away from home, and when are you planning to go back? When I used to go out on adventures, I was always worried about how Irene was doing alone, and then I simply took Walking with her, you should also be worried about your mother."

These words made Xiu miss Notting Village even more.

The time he had been away from home was actually not long, but when he recalled what he had experienced during this time, he felt in a daze that he had been wandering outside for countless years.

He did feel homesick.

"Probably after I've dealt with the matter of my biological parents, I can go back and have a look!" Xiu said with a smile.

Seven raised the jug and said to him, "Then congratulate you in advance."

For them who are adventuring outside, returning home safely is the most worthy of celebration.

Xiu thanked him, then looked to the south and imagined the peaceful village.

There must be no wind and snow like the extreme north. The wind is gentle and warm, with the freshness of the forest, and maybe the smell of the scones next door...
