Global Dungeon: My Support Is Too Strong Webnovel - Chapter552
552 Ice Field
Ever since the era of class change, the conflict between humans and monsters continued.
However, in the past 100 years, there had been no incidents of monsters invading the border of the Dragon Kingdom.
Even in the entire history of the era when everyone changed their classes, there were rarely any monsters that attacked the Dragon Kingdom’s Desert City from the ice field!
For a moment, when the old beggar mentioned the invasion of the monsters, the Ice Wolf Army stationed in the Snow Village immediately became as if they were facing a great enemy!
Nearly two-thirds of the Ice Wolf Army’s hunters had gone to Desert City.
!!
The old beggar was also able to sneak into the outer realm.
The explosion that came from the center of the Desert City was caused by Zhu Qiyan’s family chasing after the old beggar and Lu Benwei.
The old beggar used his mysterious footwork to successfully leave them behind. Only then was he able to enter the ice field in the northern part of the Dragon Kingdom.
By the time the Ice Wolf Army and Zhu Qiyan’s families reacted, the old beggar and Lu Benwei had already disappeared from the vast ice field.
…
Lu Benwei and the old beggar had entered the icy field for a day and a night.
The tall and majestic wall had completely disappeared at the edge of the horizon, replaced by a vast ice field.
This place was known as the “white desert.”
During the day, the strong sunlight shone on the boundless snowfield. The icy snow was as hard as iron, covering the ground.
Lu Benwei and the old beggar had arrived in a hurry and were not fully prepared. With every step they took, they would slip, and it was an extremely difficult journey.
It was spring in the entire Dragon Kingdom, and the days on the ice field in the same hemisphere were slowly getting longer.
The strong sunlight during the day made the entire ice field seem to rise, and the surroundings were filled with milky white light. Heaven and earth gradually merged into one. The white sky, the white earth, and the vast expanse of whiteness were like thick milk.
“Brat, I can’t take it anymore. I can’t see the road clearly.”
The old beggar blinked his eyes hard and called back Lu Benwei, who was scouting ahead.
When Lu Benwei heard this, he immediately turned back. When he approached the old beggar, he immediately asked, “You have snow blindness. You have to find a place to rest immediately.”
The old beggar’s eyes were bloodshot, and tears kept flowing from the corners of his eyes.
“Where can I find a place to rest in this godforsaken place? Besides, aren’t you in a hurry to find the Snow Lotus Seed? Let’s hurry up!”
Lu Benwei felt guilty. All this while, he had been the one who had been dragging the old beggar into the icy field.
“Why don’t you stay in the Bronze Temple for a while?”
The old beggar shook his head. “No. You might cause some trouble later. I don’t feel safe staying in there.”
Lu Benwei was speechless.
“Am I that much of a troublemaker?”
“Don’t you feel guilty when you say that?” The old beggar rolled his eyes at him.
At this moment, the Six-tailed Crocodile in the Bronze Temple spoke, “Big Brother, won’t it be better if you let me go out? I can carry the old beggar with you.”
“Sigh, that’s a good idea!” the old beggar said.
Lu Benwei thought that there was probably no safer way than this, so he released the Six-tailed Crocodile and the Blood Monster.
“I’m finally out to breathe in the fresh air. I’ve been staying with that bloody monster all day. I keep feeling that one day, all the blood in my body will be sucked dry by him!”
The giant crocodile patted his belly excitedly and rolled on the ground several times.
When the First Mountain Secret Realm collapsed, the crocodile unexpectedly obtained a great opportunity. His original three tails became six, and each one was thick and powerful.
At its peak, the crocodile could become as huge as a mountain, and his body seemed to be made of gold. He moved like a mountain of gold.
The old beggar crawled to the back of the crocodile and leaned against a protruding scale to rest.
Lu Benwei and the Blood Monster also sat down.
“Big Brother, where are we going now?”
Lu Benwei held the Ice Lotus in his hand. There was a fluorescent light flickering in the middle of the icy blue stamen. This was the Ice Lotus guiding him.
Along the way, Lu Benwei followed the fluorescent light on the Ice Lotus.
“Go in the direction of the sun,” Lu Benwei muttered.
“Alright!”
The Six-tailed Crocodile shook his thick tails and ran straight toward the place where the sun set.
“Rumble!”
The huge body was moving like a mountain.
Lu Benwei sat cross-legged and casually chatted with the Blood Monster.
“The outer realm is your territory, but why haven’t we seen any monsters along the way?”
The Blood Monster looked at Lu Benwei with disdain. “Which monster would be willing to take root in this godforsaken place?”
“There isn’t a single clan here?”
“None!”
Lu Benwei was quite surprised. It was the first time he had heard of this secret.
“But I’ve heard a legend. The bloodline of the ice-type monsters in the Dragon Kingdom comes from the ice field,” Lu Benwei said, “But now, why can’t I see even a strand of monster fur?”
“You said it was a legend. How could it be true?” the Blood Monster rolled his eyes and said impatiently.
Lu Benwei let out a breath and stopped talking to the Blood Monster.
On the vast ice field, only the rumbling of the Six-tailed Crocodile could be heard.
“It’s not that there are no living beings.”
Lu Benwei was resting with his eyes closed, but he opened his eyes when he heard the Blood Monster suddenly speak.
“What do you mean?”
“You humans have your own legends, and we monsters have our own legends,” the Blood Monster said.
The old beggar was also interested. He sat up straight and began to listen.
“We monsters have seven royal clans consisting of five imperial clans and three ancestral clans,” the Blood Monster said, “Now, there are only five royal clans, three imperial clans, and two ancestral clans left.”
“These five clans were originally from the ice field?” the old beggar asked.
“Yes.” The Blood Monster did not deny it.
“According to legend, the icy field was once a land of vitality and prosperity where all clans lived together. The monsters on the icy field are still coexisting with you humans…”
At this point, the old beggar and Lu Benwei’s mouths were wide open.
“Wait, what did you just say?”
“What?” The Blood Monster was confused. “The monsters on the icy field still coexisted with you humans?”
“Impossible!” The old beggar immediately jumped up. “How can we humans coexist with you magical beasts? Other than the Dragon Kingdom, where else can humans survive?”
The Blood Monster shook his head. “I’m not sure about that. Anyway, that’s what my grandfather’s book said.”
“It’s not impossible for humans and monsters to coexist,” Lu Benwei suddenly said.
“How is that possible?” the old beggar said anxiously.
“Then who are we talking to now? Isn’t it quite peaceful?” Lu Benwei asked back, making the old beggar choke.
