The dark night enveloped the entire night forest, and there was no trace of light in the gloomy sky. The strong wind was filled with coin-sized snowflakes dancing wildly in the air. A thick white snow blanket was already piled up on the ground and branches in the forest.

Xu Yue touched her face, wiped the snowflakes stuck to her eyelashes, looked at the scenery in front of her that seemed to have not changed, and helped pull both sides of the hood into the middle, trying to block the snowflakes and cold wind that were raging in the air.

At this time, he was wearing a common clothing for travelers. The hood was connected to the cloak behind him, a sleeveless leather jacket made of wild beasts, a thick cotton jacket inside, and a package on his back.

The thick snow under his feet made him feel like he was trekking in a mud every step he took. For an otaku who had never walked a long road like him, catching up for three hours on such a harsh blizzard night had already made his already short physical strength almost reach bottom.

"Damn the weather, it was still sunny in the afternoon, and it was almost half a meter thick in this time. I hope my previous prediction was correct, otherwise this time it would be in vain."

Before he finished speaking, a shrill howling suddenly came from behind, making his brows tighten.

"Damn beast, I've been pestering it for more than a month. I've actually chased me here!"

After looking around, Xu Yue found an open space and stood in the blizzard and waited. After a while, he could faintly hear some dense snow-clad sounds of squeezed snow from the violent snow and quickly approaching from a distance, and at the same time, he could also hear the violent gasping of some wild beasts.

In a blink of an eye, more than a dozen huge black shadows ran out of the forest to surround him. They looked like an ordinary wolf, but their size was twice as big as a normal wolf. There were only a piece of palm-sized scales on their foreheads, and their blood-red eyes showed a deep hatred and cruelty towards their prey.

Xu Yue looked at the beast surrounding him, but did not show any panic. After sweeping the wolves around him, he stopped paying attention, but instead looked around.

After just a few breaths, another giant wolf with a larger size came out of the forest. The fur color of the buffalo was close to silver, and even in the blizzard, it reflected a faint silvery smoothness.

When the wolves around them saw the giant wolf coming, they all retreated slightly and moved the road aside. It was obvious that the leader of these giant wolf was behind them.

When Xu Yue saw the wolf, the corner of her mouth twitched, and sighed helplessly and said, "This is the 23rd time. Is it just that I killed one of your cubs? Do you have to mess up the entire wolf pack?"

The hatred in the eyes of the wolf in the distance became even stronger. It was like an ordinary wolf, and the beasts around it seemed to hear the order, and immediately pounced out with red light as if they were bloodshot.

He had expected the attacks on the surrounding beasts. Xu Yue stretched out his right hand and instantly, a strange wooden stick about 1.5 meters high in his hand was placed out of thin air.

He gently paused the wooden stick on the ground, and the next moment he saw an oval light cover more than two meters high completely covering his body. The blizzard around him was instantly repelled, and the snowflakes hit the light cover and were bounced away one after another.

A few of the giant wolf rushing over couldn't hold back and hit the light shield. Suddenly, they were like they hitting a hard wall and their whole bodies were stuck to the light shield.

Seeing this, the head wolf immediately let out a long howl, and suddenly a flash of light on his body, and his four claws were shrouded in a layer of green light.

Its four claws kicked on the ground, and its body turned into a blue light and passed by the light shield. A wolf claw with green light shone fiercely on the light shield with the impact force. Suddenly, the light shield shook a few times during this attack, and the light dimmed a little.

Seeing this situation, Xu Yue's eyes tightened slightly, and he stretched out his left hand and concentrated and shouted softly.

"Al!"

Suddenly a fireball shot out from his hand and flew towards the head wolf.

The head wolf's body hid aside at lightning speed before the fireball arrived, but the three or four giant wolfs that could not dodge as much as the orange-red were shrouded in by the explosion.

A few shrill screams rang out with the explosion. After everything calmed down, two broken giant wolf corpses were lying on the ground.

The battle between the two sides was very fast, and the above battle had already happened within four or five seconds. Obviously, both sides had enough understanding of their opponents.

The head wolf was too fast, so Xu Yue no longer rushed to attack it and turned his target to the ordinary giant wolf around him.

This made the head wolf angry, and the frequency of the attack suddenly doubled. However, although the light shield on the other party was shaking with its strength, it was not destroyed at all.

After two fireballs killed three or four of the ordinary giant wolves around him, the remaining giant wolves became turbulent.

The head wolf couldn't help but show a hint of sadness in his eyes as he looked at the loss of the clan. It was obvious that it understood that it was only a matter of time before it could continue to destroy its clan, but the deep hatred and anger drove its instinct not to give up.

Seeing the head wolf turn his head and his eyes full of resentment, Xu Yue frowned, and saw him raise his hand and shout again.

"Ace!"

This time, a blue light blade of more than one meter long and half a moon appeared from above his left hand. The next moment, the light blade shot out like lightning. The fast speed made people only see a touch of smoothness flashing through the air.

This time the head wolf could not avoid it safely. Although he tried his best to avoid the vital points, his hind legs were still swept out by the light blade, and Yin Hong's blood was immediately left.

If you look closely at it, there are many scars of all sizes, which is obviously not the first time you have been injured like this.

As if he knew that he could no longer kill his prey, the head wolf let out a long howl with grief and anger. Suddenly, the remaining giant wolf quickly turned around and ran away.

The head wolf turned his head and glanced with hatred, and his body turned into a blue light and escaped into the woods.

After seeing all the giant wolves retreating, Xu Yue was on guard for a while before breathing a sigh of relief.

"It's so unlucky. I'll just go on a journey in this kind of weather, but I'll still meet these guys. Today, the ring's three fireball techniques were used up again, and the wind blade was only left once. I hope there will be no trouble in the next journey."

He walked in the wind and snow for more than an hour, until he was already panting like a cow, and his steps seemed to be filled with lead. Finally, there were lights in front of him, and the outline of a town was blurred in the wind and snow.

Seeing the lights in the distance, Xu Yuedun waved his arm excitedly and said to himself: "I knew that there must be a place where humans live when walking here."

The size of the town does not seem to be small. From the outside, there are about a hundred and ten families. After walking into the town from the main road, you will arrive at the main street of the town, with some shops standing on both sides of the street.

However, the shops were closed at this time, and the wooden signs of the shops were clattering.

Xu Yue walked along the street and found that the two-story building on the street was still lit. The wine glasses and bed patterns engraved on the wooden sign made people understand at a glance that this was a tavern providing accommodation. As for the signboard, there were a few strange words with the name of the tavern on it, Xu Yue didn't recognize any of them.

Standing outside the gate, hesitated for a moment, he gritted his teeth and pushed open the door of the tavern. Suddenly, the faint sound in the tavern was amplified many times, a kind of music with a strong exotic flavor but very nice sound mixed in the voices.

At first glance, there were seventeen or eighteen tables in the tavern, and a long wooden bar in front of the wine cabinet, which looked a bit old but very clean.

There is a small table in the center, and several people are playing with musical instruments that look like gourds. Most of the dozen tables in the tavern are full of people, and only one table in the corner is still empty.

After observing the surrounding environment, he hesitated slightly and walked directly to the empty table to sit down.

The waitress in the bar is a girl in her twenties with a long and fair skin with chestnut color. The S-shaped figure highlighted by the maid outfit makes the old drunks in the hotel unable to help but reach out to try to secretly take some oil on the high buttocks.

However, it was obvious that the waitress was very experienced in dealing with these guys. She swung her body slightly and avoided the paws that stretched out. While laughing and scolding with a few old alcoholics, she delivered the wine and food in the tray to the guests' table.

After coming to Xu Yue's table, the waitress walked to the table with a smile and asked, "Customers from afar, do you want something to order? We have the best Suther wine here, which can help you relieve the fatigue and coldness of the journey very well."

Xu Yue's eyes were obviously nervous when the waitress came over, but she quickly calmed down. No one noticed the change in his expression because his whole face was hidden in his wide hood.

"Give me a glass of Suther wine. Also, if you have any special food here, I will give me one. I was almost starving to death after rushing in such a ghost weather today." He said as he opened the hood on his head.

"Oh! Chatner?" After seeing Xu Yue's oriental appearance, the waitress said in surprise. You should know that the people around her are typical Western appearances.

However, the waitress soon discovered her rudeness and said sorry: "Ah! Sorry for the guests, but we rarely see Chatners here, so we are a little surprised!"

When Xu Yue took off the hood, there was a deep nervousness hidden in his eyes. When the waitress exclaimed in a low voice, his hands under the table were clenched tightly, but the expression on her face was more natural.

Fortunately, after hearing what the waitress said, he seemed to have put down a big stone in his heart. He relaxed, secretly wiped the cold sweat from his palms under the table, and smiled indifferently.

"Haha, nothing. This is not the first time I have encountered this situation as a traveler. The appearance of the Chatners is indeed a bit different from the people here."

The waitress felt relieved when she saw that the other party did not blame her for her rudeness. When the young man opposite smiled, the gentle face of the oriental man made her feel a different charm. Her face turned red slightly, and she hurriedly apologized and then turned back to the kitchen to bring the food and wine.

Xu Yue didn't say anything next. While eating food in the corner, he secretly listened to the words of the people around him and collected information from it.

"Hi! Old John, I heard that you brought a team of mercenaries into the Yege Forest yesterday. How did you get it?"

"Don't mention it! What can you get in this ghost season? The monsters are all staying in the nest. I can't find some alchemy herbs if I want to collect some alchemy herbs. Those rookies who have to be busy with a horned rabbit have no gains in two days. They are impatient and run back to the city."

"Haha, normal! Those rookies are obviously rich young masters and ladies in the city. They have a lot of adventure stories to find excitement. It snows so heavily today, those rookies are probably still crying in the snow halfway, hahahaha..."

The man in the tavern burst into laughter when he heard this.

Time passed quickly, and the people in the town obviously did not want to stay outside in such weather for too long. After about an hour, the people in the tavern left one after another.

Seeing that the person was almost gone, Xu Yue came to the front of the bar.

A man with a beard in his forties was wiping his wine glass behind the bar. After observing this period of time, he could be sure that the man who looked very generous and had a big voice was the owner of this bar.

"Is there any room here?"

"Oh! Of course! Although my night song tavern is not big, it can provide the most comfortable room for guests!" The owner of the tavern put down the glass that was wiping in his hand and smiled.

He waved his hand and shouted to the waitress who was packing the table in a loudspeaker voice: "Mary! Take this guest to Room 3. By the way, replace him with a thick bedding. We can't let guests get frozen here in such a ghost weather!"

"Okay! Uncle Kate!" The waitress just now put down the plate she had packed in her hands and walked over, and smiled and led the traveler along the stairs to the second floor room.

The rooms in the tavern do not look big, with only seven or eight rooms, each room only about ten square meters. There is only one bed, a table and two chairs in the room, and an oil lamp is placed on the table, which looks very simple. But both the bedding and the furniture are very clean, giving people a warm feeling.

"I'll bring the hot water for washing up later. There is a basin under the bed. You can wash it. This room is forty copper coins a night, and there is also a room for fifty copper coins a night next to it. The space is larger." Mary said enthusiastically while spreading the bedding.

Xu Yue put his backpack on the table and said with satisfaction: "No, this room is very good, thank you! By the way, please ask, if I want to live in this town for a long time, I don't know if I can rent a house."

After putting the quilt on, Mary smiled and said, "Of course! Many people in the town will rent their extra houses to mercenaries who come here. It just so happened that Uncle Kate, the owner of this store, will help introduce it. You can ask him."

"That's great. By the way, you said that many people rent houses to mercenaries. Are there many mercenaries here?"

"Haha, it's rare now, because you're in the wrong time. In the winter, the magical plants in the Songsen Forest have withered, and most of the monsters are hibernating, so there are basically no mercenaries coming here to do tasks. In another three months, the snow will turn out, and it will become very lively here."

After chatting with the beautiful and enthusiastic waitress for a while, when she left, Xu Yue quietly walked to the door and locked the door from inside. Then he checked around and confirmed that it was impossible for someone to see the situation in the room from the next door, and fell on the bed like exhausted.

After resting for a while, he felt his tired spirit relieved a little. He sat up and took out a box of cigarettes from his pocket with his slightly trembling hands, took out one and lit it and showed a thoughtful look on his face.

Xu Yue is not a person from this world, but in fact he is a small employee of an ordinary heating company on the earth.

He was born in Inner Mongolia, but he was not a Mongolian. From his grandfather's generation that he came to Inner Mongolia to make a living, and he was born in Inner Mongolia.

He was the only son at home, his father worked in a power plant, and his mother was a teacher. The family was not wealthy, but he lived a very warm life.

After graduating from university, he went alone in society for two years and did not achieve any results. In the end, he could only work at his current position under the arrangement of his family. However, because he did not curry favor with the leader, there was basically no possibility of appreciation, and he lived a life of living a life of living a life of waiting for death day after day.

I thought my life was like this, but life was a drama that combined with unexpected situations, and you would never know what would happen in the next moment.
