    "The blizzard won't come so soon. We still have about half an hour." Bastanai had already developed the ability to observe wind and snow in the cold Leitening Empire.

    "But the river is freezing to death." A soldier who was pushing the boat said dissatisfiedly. Because the river was shallow and the wind didn't change, they had to use manpower to push the boat to the river.  Fortunately, the boat was not heavy. Strong soldiers volunteered to jump into the river and started pushing the boat from the side.  The river water in December was bone-chillingly cold. After a while, several people felt their calves begin to feel numb. They could still feel the cold before, but now they were about to lose consciousness.

    Despite their complaints, the soldiers pushed both boats to the river bank.  When the work was done, they climbed up from the side and got into their black cloaks to rest.  In such a season, if you get frostbite, pain and possible death will follow. No one can guarantee that you can keep your balance on the boat board and not fall into the water when your whole body is sore and itchy.  Moreover, Lier couldn't look for grass in winter.  Except for the holy light magic that can thoroughly cleanse the inside and outside of the body, most magic can only treat external injuries, and even ordinary coughs cannot be cured.

    "Vida, how's the situation?" Leal lay on the board of the boat and stuck his head out to look down.

    "It's not bad." Vida is also good at wood work. "It's just a little scratched. It can be completely repaired by nailing two wooden boards together. Originally, there was no need to repair it, but in the snowstorm, there were wounds.  There¡¯s nothing reassuring about a boat.¡±

    "Burt, take a few people to cut down the trees, and then find a way to turn them into planks." Raloff said.

    "We still have some repair tools, Your Highness, it seems that the ship will be repaired soon." A soldier happily walked to the deck, holding a hammer and a bag of nails in his hand.

    Bert rubbed his hands together and put on the cloak he had brought before setting off.  The temperature is now close to freezing, and in just one week, the river will freeze completely.  He jumped out of the boat quickly, his boots splashing with water.  Bert felt an unstoppable chill rising from under his feet. He immediately left the river and ran to the shore.  Those who reached the shore first began to stamp their feet to get more warmth.

    "The woods ahead." Bert pointed ahead. The other soldiers expressed their understanding and ran into the forest.

    Bert patted a tree with his bloody giant sword, and then slashed hard towards the trunk.  The big tree fell down in response, and its leaves fell to the ground and flew in the air.  Snowflakes were flying and the sound was loud.  The sound spread far away in the silent forest, waking up several hibernating gray rabbits. A squirrel scrambled out from under the collapsed tree and escaped. Several birds that were sleeping on the branches now disappeared.  Tokiya began to chirp, seeming to complain about Burt's roughness.

    "I think I must have woken up something." Burt smiled apologetically, and he began to try to chip away at the board with his giant sword.

    "It's really sharp." A man with a thick Murphian accent said, "It's like the God King's steel."

    "God King Stainless Steel is a mineral gifted to Iron Falls by Leitning, the God of Judgment. I don't expect to compare." Burt originally wanted to say, "God King Stainless Steel is not as good as my sword," but this would inevitably be blasphemous.  Meaning, so he quickly changed his tune.

    "This is an old tree." The Morphian kicked the stump, which had dozens of rings on it.

    "Roar¡ª¡ª" A violent roar came from the nearby woods, and an adult snow troll jumped out of the dense forest.  It was extremely fast. Burt's sword spirit was originally sleeping. At this time, sensing the critical situation, it automatically woke up and guided Burt to intercept the snow troll.  He rushed over and grabbed the Snow Troll's right arm.

    The troll waved its giant claws, and Burt clung to the thick hair of the snow troll to prevent himself from falling.  The soldier from Morphea cursed in the slang of his hometown, rolled over instinctively, then picked up his sword and charged over.  Other soldiers also surrounded the snow troll.  When the troll was surrounded, it exploded with more power and threw Bert directly to the ground. He slid a few meters due to inertia on the ground.

    ¡°Don¡¯t let this big guy get away!¡± Most soldiers¡¯ thoughts were qualified.

    "Calm down!" Sword Spirit roared fiercely, "Run back, the other three snow trolls are rushing here!"

    Now the soldiers felt shuddering, there were only five of them.  After hearing the warning from the sword spirit, they immediately pulled Bert up. Morphea and another soldier who was a guard carried Bert on their backs.  Among the other three, one quickened his pace to inform His Royal Highness of the danger here, while the other two slowed down to prepare for the crisis behind them.

    ThatIn fact, this forest was not far from the river, but just a few hundred meters away, they walked with fear.  The snow trolls are running here. I don¡¯t know if it¡¯s an illusion or a real thing. It seems that there are more snow trolls running through the jungle, roaring and rustling sounds in the wilderness, which sounds extraordinarily special.  Weird.  A brave soldier looked back and saw that there were indeed three snow trolls watching them with eighteen eyes in the jungle. The snow trolls that had been chasing them were already less than fifteen meters away from the soldiers.  To be caught up.

    At the same time, the soldiers waiting for the plank also discovered the crisis here.  Karn Gale jumped out like an arrow, followed closely by the other soldiers.  Due to distance issues, the shooter was worried about accidental injury, so he did not shoot.  But as long as the snow trolls get close to eighty meters, they are confident that they can at least not hurt any of their own people.

    They ran as fast as they could, and as soon as they joined the others, they no longer had to avoid the snow trolls.  The Snow Troll also knew this, so he also began to squeeze his own power.  Its giant claws kept stretching forward, trying to catch the last soldier.

    "Ata - g!" The two soldiers who were lagging behind realized that the snow troll was about to catch up with them, so they simply stopped retreating and turned around to prepare for the final resistance.  The first soldier was directly knocked away by the Snow Troll's claws, and the second soldier was caught by the Snow Troll. The troll scratched his arm with its claws, forcing him to drop his sword.

    "Damn it!" Burt yelled, "Put me down, I'm going to save him."

    ¡°Let¡¯s go together¡ª¡± The Morphian let go of Burt¡¯s arm and patted him on the shoulder.

    The troll carried the captured soldiers on its back and fled quickly.  The fastest Karngale, Bert, Lier, Roland, Shiluo, Little Orava and twelve soldiers all joined the team chasing the troll.

    The remaining people stayed in place to repair the ship, so that even if they encountered danger, they would have a way out.  About thirty soldiers remained on board, and ten sturdy lads went to work on the wood.  The remaining people went to rescue the soldiers who were shot away. Lying on the snow could easily lead to various diseases.  Jessdown, who also stayed, began to use his mental power to detect the surrounding disturbances to prevent the snow troll from launching a surprise attack.

    "I pray that they are safe and sound." Jezdon muttered silently, "God of War bless them."

    At this time, a fierce chase was taking place in the dense forest.  Karngeir said nothing, speeding through the jungle in silence.  And it is also what the snow trolls consider to be the greatest threat.  Fortunately, they pass here every year, so they are very familiar with the terrain here. With this advantage, Karn Gale will not be able to catch up with the snow trolls for a while.  As for the others behind, the gap in speed and endurance was also exposed. They changed from a dense formation at the beginning to a scattered line formation, and there were even two soldiers suspected of falling behind.  These two soldiers were the ones who pushed the ship before, so their physical strength was already exhausted.

    Carn Gale is also anxious at this time. If it runs with all its strength, it won't be a big problem to catch up with the snow troll.  But it didn't have much confidence in defeating an adult Snow Troll head-on, and there was a captured soldier on the Snow Troll's back, making Karn Gale feel even more restricted.  Moreover, others may not be able to keep up with him, and they will probably arrive within ten seconds of starting the battle.  The Snow Troll would probably defeat him within "more than ten seconds".

    Once Karn Gale falls, it will be even more difficult to catch up with the Snow Troll.  It was precisely for this reason that Karn Gale had been hesitating whether to accelerate at full speed.

    ¡°Roar¡ª¡ª¡± Lear¡¯s transformed werewolf followed by two faster wolves kept up with Karn Gale¡¯s pace.  The werewolf felt a sense of relief.  Now it could catch up with the Snow Troll, which in its eyes was terribly clumsy. Karn Gale burst out with all its speed, and in less than three seconds, it pounced on the Snow Troll, using its powerful legs to  Kick the troll in the hind legs.

    ¡°Ouch¡ª¡ª¡± This snow troll had difficulty maintaining balance while running and fell to the ground.  The captured soldier also fell to the ground. He immediately got up and ran back, regardless of the pain of the violent collision with the ground.

    Lier opened his bloody mouth, biting the upper and lower teeth fiercely, piercing the snow troll's fur.  Karn Gale, Gale, and Storm also began to tear apart the bodies of the snow trolls, and the salty blood slowly flowed into the mouths of the wolves.  The snow troll struggled fiercely and tried his best to get rid of the wolf's entanglement.  However, Bert and the others have already arrived.  The Ataks threw themselves into the battle before they had time to breathe.  Burt's bloody giant sword was raised high and slashed downwards. The snow troll let out a shrill scream, and one of its proud pair of sharp claws had been cut off.

    "It's finished." Bert took back the bloody sword and looked at the snow troll with satisfaction, whose voice was much weaker than before.

    Of course, they cannot take it lightly.  Because the troll's limbs can recover very quickly, if you cut off its arm in the morning, a new one will automatically grow at night.  However, it can neither grow a new head nor a heart.

    A soldier picked up his sword and stabbed it into the troll's heart.  The troll struggled fiercely for a while, and then gradually subsided.  Its soul flew out of its body and instinctively headed towards the underworld.  Due to their limited intelligence, they often choose to be reincarnated directly instead of staying as undead.

    "Go back quickly." Every time the Sword Spirit roared violently has recently turned into something unlucky, "There are at least five snow trolls eyeing our ship."
