060 City of Ice
This is definitely a heroic city built in the snow and ice, and it is no less than Tianji City. The style of the building is relatively rough, the city gate alone is more than 5 meters high. The entire castle is full of unruly wild beauty
"What a majestic castle. Ice and Fire#Chinese" Zhang Ning sincerely exclaimed.
According to the map prompt, the name of the castle in front of you is the city of Ice, which is the nest of the ice giant in the northern wasteland. However, Zhang Ning suspected that the entire northern wasteland was likely to be more than this city of Ice.
There are eight ice giant guards more than three meters high on both sides of the tall and wide city gate. These guards are different from the guards in other cities who are responsible for gatekeepers. Other city gate guards usually use big swords or spears in their hands, while these ice giant guards hold a thick ice cone in their right hand. But Zhang Ning would not doubt at all that if someone forced into the city, the ice cone that can attack remotely is more lethal than the long sword spear.
Looking through the city wall, I didn't find a city defense building like the arrow tower. But thinking about it, if someone sieges the city, a row of ice giants stood on the city wall and kept shooting ice cones under the city. The effect was similar to that of the arrow tower. There was indeed no need to spend manpower and material resources to build the arrow tower.
Facing such a mighty city, Zhang Ning was in trouble. The ice giant was not friendly to humans. It was definitely impossible to walk in with a swagger. When he rushed in, he seemed to have no ability at the moment. I wonder if he could find a dog hole or something to get in.
The top master in the Heavenly List actually thought about drilling into a dog hole. This is simply embarrassing to grandma's house, but do you have any other way besides drilling into a dog hole?
Yes! Dig an authentic tunnel and go in... It's better to drill a dog hole directly.
The problem is that there seems to be no dog holes in the Ice City, and these ice giants probably don't keep dogs.[
Zhang Ning looked at the skill attached to the Heart of the Ocean. It seemed that he could only rely on the skill of the Water Escape Technique. I don’t know if the body will attract the hatred of monsters after liquefied. If it can still attract the hatred of monsters, even if the body liquefied in, it will be killed out in five seconds.
After gaining the Heart of the Ocean, Zhang Ning had not used this skill and had no idea at all. He could only try it out with the monsters outside.
Zhang Ning looked at the ice giants around about 50 meters away. The ice giants close to the castle had good eyesight and would be discovered as long as they were close to them within 45 meters. Fortunately, their ice cones could only be thrown 20 meters away, otherwise Zhang Ning would definitely not be able to walk here alive.
"Water Escape!" Zhang Ning shouted in a low voice and activated the water escape technique. His body immediately turned into a hazy water vapor, floating and vaguely, and a human-like form could be seen. A gust of cold wind blew, and the liquefied little man's body swayed, and his arms and legs were almost blown away from his body, which really scared Zhang Ning.
The water escape technique only lasted for 5 seconds. Without further ado, Zhang Ning immediately thought, as if a gust of wind wrapped around his liquefied body and moved forward quickly. After the speed increased by 300%, the ball of water vapor floated very quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it floated past the ice giant.
The ice giant glanced blankly, and conditioned reflexively threw the ice cone in his hand towards the ball of water vapor. The ice cone penetrated the water vapor and pierced the ground, splitting away. Zhang Ning was not injured. After throwing out a piece of ice cone, the ice giant had no intention of chasing him, and just watched Zhang Ning drift further and further away.
It seems there is a way! Zhang Ning couldn't help but feel excited, but he didn't stop at once. When his condition disappeared, he almost hit another ice giant in front of him.
The ice giant let out an roar, waved the ice cone in his hand and smashed it down at Zhang Ning. Zhang Ning reacted very quickly and rolled to the right in a hurry.
With a "bang!", the ice giant smashed an ice cone on the ground, and the scattered ice chips fell on Zhang Ning's body, but they did not suffer much damage.
The shot fell to nothing, and the ice giant waved his hand and threw the ice cone in his hand towards Zhang Ning.
In order to avoid the attack of the ice cone, Zhang Ning had to roll continuously, and his body rolled several times on the snow, rolling behind the ice giant, with snowflakes on his body. He took advantage of the opportunity of the ice giant turning around and got up in a mess.
He got up, but there was not enough time to get the distance again, so Zhang Ning had to grit his teeth and draw his sword to fight with the Ice Giant in close combat. However, facing a big man like the Ice Giant who turned relatively slowly, Zhang Ning was at ease to deal with it.
It took about 5 minutes before finally killing the ice giant in his hand. The experience he gained was 15 times that of the ice giants in the edge of the wasteland. Zhang Ning estimated that the level of these ice giants had exceeded at least level 160.
The ice giant above level 160 is more than 60 levels higher than his level. No wonder they can still find it after more than 40 meters.
The water escape technique is two hours. Zhang Ning has to wait two hours now to have the chance to enter the city. Of course, these two hours cannot be paid. So let’s practice the ice giants outside the city first. If you can kill one, you will count as one.
Two hours later, Zhang Ning pulled out his sword from the chest of the 20th Ice Giant, bent down and picked up a level 140 orange heavy armor equipment and dozens of gold coins on the ground to put it in the package, turned around and walked towards the gate of the Ice City.
On both sides of the city gate, a total of 16 ice giant guards were still conscientiously guarding there. Even if there was any movement nearby, he could not escape his eyes.
When Zhang Ning walked to about 50 meters away from the city gate, he did not dare to move forward. He would probably be discovered if he continued to walk a few steps forward.
Zhang Ning took a deep breath, quickly activated the water escape skill, and then rushed into the castle like a gust of wind. The sixteen guards at the door seemed to feel something, and at the same time turned to look at the mist representing Zhang Ning's body. Zhang Ning's cold sweat was all over, and all the ** who could be entrusted with the important task of guarding the door were extremely wise. It is said that the guards of Zhongnan-hai can remember all the vehicles with the right to enter and exit that place. If the guards of the Ice City also had such ignorant eyes, wouldn't that be done?
After a gust of wind passed through the city gate, the sixteen guards did not chase in or call for people. Zhang Ning finally breathed a sigh of relief, but he immediately caught him blind. The pattern inside the city gate of the Ice City was similar to that of Tianji City. After entering the city, it was followed by a small city gate square, with both sides empty and difficult to find a place to stay. If you want to run to the building opposite the square to hide it, it is obviously not enough time.
Seeing that four seconds had passed in skill time and the last second was left, Zhang Ning rushed into a huge flower bed next to him without hesitation.
As soon as my body entered the flower garden, it immediately solidified.
However, the flower bed built by the Ice Giant is several times larger than the human flower bed, and the plants loaded inside are more than two meters high. As long as Zhang Ning hides inside, he should not attract others' attention. Fortunately, he is less than 1.8 meters tall, and if he grows like Yao Ming, he will definitely be exposed. This is the first time he feels that the real benefits brought to him by not growing taller.
After hiding himself, Zhang Ning finally had time to calm down and observe the situation outside through the dense branches and leaves. At first glance, Zhang Ning's heart suddenly shrank, and saw a row of tall and large trenchers neatly lined up next to the city walls on both sides of the city gate square. The thick curved beams of the trenchers stood tall and the thick base occupied squatting there gave people a very steady feeling. The whole trencher was full of evil war beauty.
I didn’t expect there were so many trenchers here, what does this mean? It shows that these ice giants have mastered the manufacturing technology of trenchers, and this trip has indeed not been in vain.
However, it is not easy to find the pattern of a catapult from this crisis-ridden castle and try to get it. If you want to do this, luck may be more than strength factors.
The area around Chengmen Square was very busy, with ice giants constantly coming in and out, and even a second of free time was not left for Zhang Ning. He had to patiently hide in the flowerbed and move without daring to move. He stayed like this for two full hours.
Seeing that the skill icon of the Water Escape Technique lighted up, Zhang Ning was as happy as seeing the prisoner who had released a letter of release after his sentence. He had observed carefully in the past two hours and knew that there was no one in the building opposite the square, so he could temporarily hide.
Zhang Ning took a deep breath and activated the water escape skill again. His body turned into a ball of water vapor and quickly floated towards the opposite side of the square, then quickly floated into a small black room opposite the square from the mouth.
The moment I entered the house, my body condensed again.
"Who?" an old voice.
Zhang Ning was startled at first, but calmed down immediately. This sound may be normal for humans, but for the ice giant, it seemed a bit powerful. Zhang Ning immediately concluded that the owner of the sound was an old and weak ice giant. Such an old ice giant should not pose a threat to him.
However, if the other party calls someone, it will be troublesome.
Taking advantage of the dim light, Zhang Ning quickly glanced at everything in the room and hid silently behind a huge box.
"Oh~!" A sound of crutches hitting the ground, and then Zhang Ning saw a hazy huge black shadow walking slowly from the room outside.
A sniffing sound...
"I seem to smell the breath of humanity." The old ice giant man with a cane said to himself.
Zhang Ning's heart suddenly sank to the bottom of the valley, thinking that it wouldn't be so unlucky, but when he just came in, he actually met an old ice giant man with a nose that was more erect than a dog.
