Chapter 811: Chapter 684: Three of Our Junglers Steal the Nexus

Those two trackers were quite skilled.

If not for the increasingly fierce blizzard and their need to use their abilities to withstand the cold, Xu Shuo might not have been able to detect the two people who were trailing far behind.

Heavy snow can conceal many things, but it can also inadvertently reveal many things.

Upon discovery, however, he didn’t feel any displeasure.

If they wanted to follow, let them; it could be handy to have them around in case sothing ca up.

And that mont was now.

As they continued to head north, the endless ice plains seed like a road to nowhere; where could the Elf Clan possibly live?

If not heading further north, traversing the Andas Mountains to the east would lead inland, while to the west, it would reach the sea.

Could it be that the Ice and Snow Elves don’t actually live in the Far North but sowhere else?

That’s not necessarily true.

Xu Shuo looked up at the sky.

There he saw a patch of dark clouds.

At night, his vision was like shrouded in a hazy veil of black, almost blind to everything subrged in the deep dark; honestly, it was almost like being blind.

But if he focused the Power of Light in his eyes, then his vision would be no different from that of the dayti.

Thus, the dense layer of snow was just grey and white.

The boundless mountain ridges were also dark grey.

But the plains of ice below were as dark as pitch.

The sky should have been a pale color, yet above the ice field, there was an area with an exceptionally deep hue.

Xu Shuo scrutinized that area carefully.

Even though he couldn’t see anything there, he could tell sothing was amiss.

His Eminence, the Papal’s eyes, well, call them good, and they’re as blind as any, call them bad, yet they can see with X-ray Vision.

“Did you discover sothing?”

The voice of Zuo Fang ca from far behind.

After receiving Xu Shuo’s signal, the two, separated by a mountain ridge, no longer hid but ran directly towards the ice field.

Duke of Silver followed silently behind, not surprised that the two had been discovered.

When the two got closer, Xu Shuo pointed to the sky and asked, “See that?”

“See what? Such a vast ice field!”

Zuo Fang had just asked when he was taken aback, gazing at the boundless ice field in astonishnt.

In sight for thousands of miles was a white curtain of snow, with violent wind howling and savagely fierce blizzards; compared to the vicious blizzard above the ice plain, the snowfall on the side of the mountains was re drizzle.

It was like a watershed.

Without setting foot on the ice field, they had no idea snow could be so brutally punishing.

“It really is a perilous journey to find an Elf.”

Zuo Fang lanted as he looked out over the ice field.

Xu Shuo, however, lowered his hand and looked at him expressionlessly.

Then the two of them remained silent for a while.

Zuo Fang was sowhat puzzled: “Why are you looking at like that? Did I say sothing wrong? Just one look at this ice field and you can tell it’s fraught with danger.”

Duke of Silver sighed beside them: “He probably wanted you to look at the sky.”

Zuo Fang: “…”

Perhaps because Xu Shuo’s indication wasn’t very high, and there was an endless ice plain in front, Zuo Fang thought he was prompting him to look at the far end of the ice field—see, the ice field has no end.

Oh, so it was the sky after all?

Zuo Fang looked up slightly and didn’t notice anything special, other than the endless ice field in front of him.

He squinted and stared for a long ti before asking Duke of Silver at his side, “So, what did you see?”

Duke of Silver also fell silent.

Xu Shuo pondered; it seed to the naked eye of ordinary people, there was nothing notable about the sky, and even with the abilities of Zuo Fang and Duke of Silver, they couldn’t detect anything off.

His Eminence, the Papal truly has an extraordinary gift.

Since this was the case, Xu Shuo had to manually point out the issue to them.

“There could be a Sky Island above; try to detect it with your thods. If you can, let’s go up,” Xu Shuo said.

“Sky Island?”

Zuo Fang paused abruptly: “You saw it?”

Xu Shuo shook his head: “No, but I feel there’s sothing there. And since it’s impossible to continue on the ice field below, the only place left to go north is the sky.”

Zuo Fang imdiately teased: “Why can’t we go on? You’re starting to back down just by getting here?”

Well, there are no NPCs around to watch the show, so it’s okay if His Holiness, the Papal doesn’t earn those performing points!

Mainly because the fellow had just made him lose face a bit.

However, upon hearing this, Xu Shuo looked at him with deep aning and said: “If you’re not planning to back down, then you go down first. I’ll follow once you’ve landed.”

As he spoke, Xu Shuo smiled and even sincerely made a “please” gesture.

Zuo Fang: “…”

Zuo Fang looked down at the ice field below, and then at the height of the mountain peak.

It wasn’t that high, at least not high enough to be lethal for them as players; using tools, they could easily get down.

But…

He looked at the gentle smile on Xu Shuo’s face.

It inexplicably sent shivers down his spine.

Though he didn’t want to admit defeat, Zuo Fang was not one to act rashly out of pride; he cautiously summoned his Lifebound Weapon, pulling the bow and notching an arrow.

“Swoosh—”

The silver arrow streaked towards the ice field.

It pierced through the storm unabated, unimpeded by any resistance, but ultimately vanished into the night on the ice field.

Amidst the vast snowfall.

It disappeared without a trace.

Zuo Fang slowly lowered his arm holding the bow, his expression unchanged, but his pupils trembled faintly.
