Chapter 229 Strange Visitor
Luoxue Mountains, Xueling Town.
Li Si has been in Xueling Town for several days, but unfortunately he has not encountered the appearance of purple mist yet.
Although I was mentally prepared that I wouldn't be able to enter the ruins so easily, there was no chance to try, which was really frustrating.
In desperation, Li Si went to the Luoxue Mountains today after confirming that there was no purple mist. While hunting monsters, he was also practicing his martial arts.
He could feel that his martial arts had improved greatly during this journey, especially his proficiency in professional skills such as assassin and hunter.
Unlike Bright City, in this wilderness he has more opportunities to experience nature and more clearly feel the flow and combination of elements in this world.
When the interest arose, Li Si even spent the night quietly in a tree to experience the different wild life before.
Different lifestyles also brought Li Si a completely different experience, allowing him to have a deeper understanding of Professor [Flame of Judgment]'s cornerstone rules.
The only drawback is that Li Si has not yet mastered the professional skills of Druid.
If there are druid skills or special expertise, it will definitely be more helpful in understanding the elemental cornerstone laws.
It was getting late, and the temperature in the Luoxue Mountains was a bit lower than that in Xueling Town.
"It's probably going to snow in a few days."
Li Si looked at the weather and said helplessly.
According to previous scientific research, the principle behind the formation of heavy fog is that the night is long and cloudless, and the earth dissipates heat quickly, making it easy for the water vapor in the air near the ground to reach saturation in the latter half of the night to the morning and condense into small water droplets, thus forming fog.
Therefore, under normal circumstances, dense fog will not form on snowy days.
But this is an extraordinary world. According to the tavern maid Yulia, purple haze is possible in autumn and winter, even on snowy days.
It should be under the influence of extraordinary power.
Li Si threw a few pieces of pine cones into the blazing fire in front of him. They were produced from the unique cedar pine in the Luoxue Mountains and are famous for their plump grains and rich oil.
Especially after being roasted over a fire, the pine nuts emit a special burnt aroma and taste crisper and sweeter.
With a slight crackling sound, Li Si took out the charred pine cone from the fire after a while with the hands of a mage.
Chewing the fragrant pine nuts, Li Si's thoughts began to wander.
He had been guarding Xueling Town for several days a few days ago. Although he had gained nothing at all, Li Si was not impatient.
Today Li Si chose to enter the Luoxue Mountains, of course the area near Xueling Town.
Training himself was only the second priority. He happened to be observing the source of the purple mist outside Xueling Town to see if he could make any new discoveries.
Li Sidu was like this during this period, because the purple mist in Xueling Town always appeared in the latter half of the night, so Li Sidu stayed in the second half of the night, waiting for the purple mist to appear.
The cold autumn wind blows from the north along the mountains at night. In addition to the dark green of the common pine and cypress trees, most of the weeds on the ground have withered.
Li Si simply walked around today and found nothing special, not even a World of Warcraft.
Or is it too close to Xueling Town? All the valuable things here were swept away by the mercenaries like locusts.
Li Si originally planned to hunt a wild boar for dinner, but he only collected some plump pine cones.
Li Si, who wanted to experience wild boar barbecue, had no choice but to give up the idea and took out a leg of lamb and other ingredients from the storage ring.
Given the time and conditions, Li Si would not treat his stomach badly.
The ingredients Li Si placed in the storage ring were all processed in advance by people from the Baige Merchant Association, and could be stored in the storage ring for a long time.
Place the tender lamb legs on a controlled campfire, cut them with a knife, and lightly brush them with salt and spices.
Although spices are relatively expensive in the Kingdom of Fes, and using too much will cover up the taste of the mutton itself, Li Si is a person with a strong taste, so he followed his own taste.
After taking care of the lamb legs, a small bonfire was lit on the side, and a pot was set up to cook a small pot of radish and vegetable soup.
Carefully rotate the leg of lamb on the campfire with your all-powerful mage hand while controlling the heat.
With Li Si's current magic power and control, he can already use five mage hands at the same time.
The waiting time was a bit boring. The magic book Li Si carried would have been read during the Fes caravan. Now he could only try to build arcane models to waste time.
"Oh, it smells so good!"
A gentle male voice appeared behind Li Si.
Um! ! ?
Sitting in front of the bonfire, Li Si stood up suddenly, and an emerald green long-handled staff instantly appeared in his right hand.
Magic aura flickered, and several layers of magic barriers surrounded Li Si. The aura of enhanced magic illuminated the surrounding dark forest.
After getting ready, Li Si was about to turn around and look in the direction of the sound.
He couldn't help but be cautious. Even though he felt that there was no danger in Xueling Town and the nearby Luoxue Mountains, the good habits he had developed made Li Si set up early warning and protective barriers around the camp.
But Li Si was very sure that before the voice sounded, the magic barrier he arranged did not react at all.
Am I too lax?
Who is he!
Li Si gripped the emerald staff tightly, tensed his body, and turned around slowly.
There was no attack.
A figure stood three meters behind Li Si.
It was a young man in his early twenties, with an extremely handsome face, clear eyes, clear and deep facial features, and a pair of golden pupils under the black hair, shining brightly, showing a look of wisdom and confidence.
He was wearing a pure black dress, with golden silk threads simply outlining his tall figure. He was dressed so solemnly as if this place was not the Luoxue Mountains, but a noble ball in the capital city of Bright Light.
The young man looked at Li Si's alert movements and the flickering magic aura, waved his hand, and said with a smile:
"It seems like I was too rude? I don't have any hostility."
"It's such a cold night, so when I passed by here, I couldn't help but be attracted by the aroma of this food, so I came over to take a look."
Li Si heard this and did not relax his vigilance.
This person does not seem to be hostile, but this does not explain why he has to go directly through the barrier he set.
He is very strong, at least much stronger than Li Si now!
"How did you enter the barrier I set up?"
Li Si looked at the man warily and asked.
Magic power is already filling the space ring on his right hand.
"I was offended, but I felt a familiar scent when I got closer, so I couldn't hold back my curiosity."
The young man pointed at the ring on Li Si's hand and said with a smile.
