Chapter 197 The Final Mission

"You can do it!" Ma Tao disagreed with Jiang Feng's guarantee, "I'm worried that you two will go crazy together and become a pair of mandarin ducks with the same fate."

"Special code! I'm so annoyed!" Qi Tian rubbed his hair hard and shouted anxiously: "It doesn't matter so much, this is the last battle, right? Right?! I'll go tomorrow, for the last time! After this battle, I don’t care about anything anymore and immediately pack up and go home for a vacation!”

Ma Tao smiled bitterly and took out a cigarette, but did not light it. He just held it in his hand and smelled it to satisfy his cravings.

"As the captain, I cannot be absent, so Jiajia will stay at the station——"

"Brother Tao! I...I'm going too." Li Jiajia suddenly said.

"Jiajia, you don't have to force yourself."

"It doesn't matter, it's not the first time I'm forcing myself...Brother Tao, is tomorrow really the last mission? Don't lie to me..."

Li Jiajia's tearful eyes were full of prayer.

Ma Tao lowered his head, crumpled the cigarette in his hand into crumbs, raised his head suddenly, and made a promise to her solemnly.

"Jiajia, don't worry! After tomorrow, let alone the company commander, even if the station commander comes to beg me in person, I won't do it anymore!"

…

Despite their reluctance, Gao Fei's teammates reluctantly accepted the company commander's call to assist him in hunting down the only remaining "king-level" monster in the Jiuzhai area - the Nine-Headed Dragon King.

After breakfast the next day, five members of Team 05 came to the parking lot outside the hotel, waiting for Po Jun Thirteen to come and join them.

Seeing the familiar police van, Gao Fei naturally thought of Wang Daqing, who also served as the driver in the team, and felt sad again.

Not long after waiting, the company commander arrived.

With Po Jun Thirteen's size, a small van certainly couldn't fit it in. Moreover, the police car could only drive to the foot of the mountain, so it would be of no use when climbing.

In order to save time, the company commander applied for advanced spellcasting authority from the headquarters through the "Mystery Link". After getting approval, he took Gao Fei, Jiang Feng, Ma Tao, Qi Tian and Li Jiajia and teleported directly to the destination of the trip.

The teleportation point is located on the top of the mountain.

Gao Fei shook his head and woke up from the dizziness caused by the rapid shift in space. He was immediately hit by the cold wind that hit him and shivered twice in a row.

The teammates beside him were also shivering from the cold.

"Strange, why is it so cold on the mountain?" Qi Tian muttered in confusion.

"For every 1 kilometer increase in altitude, the temperature drops by approximately 6°C. The top of Tianchi Peak where we are located is more than a thousand meters higher than Jiuzhai County. The temperature in the county today is 27°C. Under normal circumstances, the temperature at the top of the mountain should not be lower than 20℃ is right.”

Ma Tao recalled the knowledge in the middle school geography textbook, rubbed his almost frozen hands and said, "However, in reality, the temperature here is close to freezing point. There must be something wrong!"

Goofy's free feat was equipped with "endurance" and a constant "endure environment" effect, and he quickly adapted to the temperature on the top of the mountain.

Looking at the vast lake shrouded in clouds and mist in the distance, I came up with a possible explanation.

"The scientific name of the Nine-Headed Dragon King in the Monster Manual is 'Nine-Headed Cold Snake Lizard'. It belongs to the cold subspecies. It is said that its nine heads can spit out supernatural cold air, just like the red dragon is good at breathing fire... We are at the moment Although the location is still two miles away from the lake, it may be affected by the cold air exhaled by the monster, so it becomes extremely cold. "

"Nine times out of ten that's the case!"

Jiang Feng took off his coat and put it on Li Jiajia, who was pale from the cold. He stamped his feet and said depressedly:

"If I had known it was so cold in the mountains, I should have brought a cotton coat with me when we set out."

"Sister Feng, cotton coats are too tacky. Let Brother Fei buy you a mink suit!"

Qitian was frozen like a dog, but it didn't stop him from making trouble with a wicked smile.

Jiang Feng turned to look at Gao Fei, his beautiful big eyes flickering.

"No problem! Sister, after we finish this mission, let's go buy a fur coat!" Gao Fei said bravely, "Brother, I'll buy you a weasel fur suit, okay?"

"Bah! I don't want it, the weasel stinks!" Jiang Feng laughed and punched him, "I saved up my own money to buy... well, buy fox skin!"

"You don't mind being coquettish either!" Gao Fei said with disgust on his face.

Li Jiajia really couldn't stand these two idiots and couldn't help but interrupt: "Brother Fei, Sister Feng, actually weasel fur is not smelly. It is a high-end raw material in the fur industry. Of course, fox fur coats are not stinky either..."

"Look, girls from big cities are good at it. We country bumpkins shouldn't follow the fashion. I'll be satisfied with a cotton coat." Jiang Feng laughed at himself happily.

Ma Tao whispered a few words to the company commander, took a medicine box from his hand, took out five bottles of magic potion, kept one for himself, and distributed the remaining four bottles to his teammates.

"This is a 'cold-proof potion' specially prepared for everyone by the company commander. It will last for two hours after taking it. During this period, it will be immune to the effects of low temperature in nature. It can also absorb a total of 120 points of magic or supernatural cold damage - including the extremely cold breath of the Nine-Headed Dragon King. ." Ma Tao introduced to everyone.

Jiang Feng, Qi Tian and Li Jiajia took the potion, and sure enough, they felt warm all over and the coldness disappeared.

Gao Fei didn't feel cold to begin with, so he stuffed the anti-cold potion into the storage space of the astrolabe, and it wasn't too late to take it after he started playing.

Pojun Thirteen was having a mental connection with the Tiangong headquarters. After ending the call, he turned to Gao Fei and others and said, "I just received a commission from Ms. Yaoguang personally. Let's help her with something on the way."

"What are your orders, Master Station Master?"

While Gao Fei was asking around, he was still complaining in his heart: If it were placed in the game world, this would be a typical "side quest".

"An old friend of the stationmaster lives in seclusion in a cave on the cliff of the main peak of Baoding Mountain. Since the outbreak of the silver flash, mutant birds and beasts have emerged in an endless stream on the mountain. That person's seclusion is no longer safe, so the stationmaster entrusted me to send someone to visit that friend and persuade her to move to the Heavenly Palace to settle down."

After briefly explaining the content of the task, the company commander's eyes fell on Gao Fei.

"Gao Fei, this errand task is handed over to you. I will take the other team members to the lakeside for reconnaissance and wait for you to come back and join us."

"It's just an errand after all this time... It's really a textbook-like classic side quest."

Gao Fei complained bitterly, feeling that he was being wasted.

No matter how much he complained, he couldn't shirk the task that the stationmaster had personally assigned him.

"Company commander, why did you only let Gao Fei deliver the letter?"

Jiang Feng asked with some concern.

"Because he is the only one who can fly." Po Jun Shisan answered.

Jiang Feng was stunned for a moment, and after thinking about it carefully, it was really the case.

Gao Fei turned into a red dragon and could fly directly to the towering main peak of Baoding Mountain and reach the secluded place of the hermit.

For others, it would be hard enough to climb to the peak with an altitude of 5,588 meters, not to mention finding the hermit's cave on the smooth cliff.
