【0237】 Deep in the ice field

Although he fought with the Son of Ice, Yasuo's luck was pretty good in general - he didn't meet the difficult ice troll that Udyr had mentioned, nor was he attacked by a direwolf, so he left.

Only one month after digging fort, he came to the area marked on the map, the legendary hometown of furnace households, Ornkar.

Then... Yasuo saw a shore.

Yes, although the ground is covered with thick ice and the white snow is doing its best to cover up the original landforms around it, Yasuo can be sure that this is the coast, because the strong winds here are the same as those in Weili and Longmen, with sea breezes.

Salty and fishy.

However, unlike those coasts, you can only see the sea water here for one or two months out of the year.

After realizing that he had arrived at the beach, Yasuo stopped Erha who was wagging his tail - yes, according to the season, it is summer now. Judging from the information from the Wind Spirit, it may be not far from the coast.

Here, the ice surface has cracked and melted.

Yasuo didn't want all his supplies to be wetted by the cold sea water because of Erha's fun.

With a whistle, Yasuo and Erha returned to the coast. After leaning on a huge rock, Yasuo breathed a sigh of relief.

Something seems a little wrong...

According to legend, Luxiang is a place where heavy snow is always flying, but in Onkar, although the sky is gloomy, there is no heavy snow?

On the contrary, in the southwest direction, there is faint lightning and thunder...

Yasuo touched his chin and finally realized that something seemed a little wrong - perhaps, this place had nothing to do with Hearth and Ornn!

Then, just as Yasuo was thinking about what to do next, amid Erha's roar, the ice surface not far away suddenly broke, and a huge tundra ice worm poked its head out.

This creature that looks like a giant caterpillar is the deadliest hunter near the coast of Freljord. They live in shallow waters all year round, and their well-developed hearing allows them to clearly hear the movements on the ice.

After locking on the prey, these guys will use the strongest parietal bones on their heads to break through the ice, and then directly open their bloody mouths to swallow the prey completely.

Adult tundra ice worms can exceed ten meters in length and are truly giant predators. They are bloodthirsty and greedy. Even the most skilled Freljord hunters cannot make these guys their helpers.

Udyr told Yasuo about this creature while drinking - in the Freljord language, their name is "Grufen", which means "death under the ice".

Erha just turned the sled around on the ice. The movement attracted the tundra ice worms here. The heavy sled may be a good meal in the perception of the tundra ice worms, so Erha left.

After the ice surface, it broke through the ice impatiently, and then opened its mouth directly.

The fishy smell almost made Yasuo breathless. Just when he frowned, razor-like sharp teeth had already arrived in front of Yasuo.

Then, just when the tundra iceworm thought it could have a snack, the long sword in Yasuo's hand had already stabbed forward quickly.

The green light on the sword turned into a gust of wind, filling the mouth of the tundra iceworm - and then, at the moment when it was slightly delayed, the long sword swept across, directly opening the corner of its mouth.

"why so serious?"

Yasuo, who was not in a very good mood, had no intention of letting it go. The sword was sharp and fierce, and it went directly along the gap between the bones, as if he was breaking the rabbit's head apart before chewing it, and slashed the tundra ice.

The insect's head was neatly split into two.

The red and white liquid splashed out, but was tightly blocked by the strong wind barrier - the next moment, the tundra ice worm's huge body collapsed on the ground, and Erha jumped forward with excitement drooling.

Yasuo had no interest in the corpse of this big guy, so he simply let Erha eat to his heart's content. Then, while Erha was eating and wagging his tail, Yasuo suddenly looked at a rock not far away.

"Who's there?"

……………………

Sejuani was so angry that she didn't dare to say a word.

Sejuani, who is fifteen years old this year, is the daughter of the War Mother of the Winter's Claw tribe, but her relationship with her mother is not good - Sejuani was born in a political marriage, and after giving birth to Sejuani

After that, her mother Kojiya left the tribe to find her true love.

(By the way, this true love's name is... Udyr.)

Because of Korgia's departure, Sejuani's grandmother Xi Jian had to shoulder the burden of the tribe again. However, without the young and strong Ice Blood War Mother, only relying on Xi Jian, an old woman, the Winter's Claw could

Can't guard the best hunting ground.

As a result, the situation of the entire tribe went from bad to worse.

The poor mother-daughter relationship puts Sejuani in a very awkward position within Winter's Claw. Compared with her biological mother, she actually admires and envies Avarosa, the allied tribe next door.

Rosa's war mother Glenna is her idol, but unfortunately the two parties broke up last year due to some reasons.

However, Sejuani had already made an appointment with Glenna's daughter Ashe to meet in Ornkar in the summer - this time, she was keeping the appointment.

The journey to Ornkar after leaving the tribe was fatal for a young girl. Seeing Sejuani as an obstacle, Korgia happily agreed to her request and planned to let her fend for herself on the tundra.

Although it's summer now, the Freljord is just as dangerous in summer!

Sejuani, who left the tribe, showed extraordinary abilities. She climbed over the mountains and escaped from the wolves, relying only on a small sled and a long sword wrapped with a thin layer of perfect ice.

The knife came to Onkar smoothly!

Kojia didn't realize what amazing abilities her daughter had.

Then, while Sejuani was waiting for her childhood sweetheart Ashe, a suona sound caught her attention.

Sejuani had never heard such a strange instrument before, and the sad and desolate sound intrigued her. However, after realizing that the sound came from the direction of the coast, she quickly extinguished her unnecessary curiosity.

Anyone who dared to walk on the coast at this time was either a fool with a big heart or an absolute strong man - or both, but no matter which one, Sejuani did not want to have any contact with the other person.

In this way, Sejuani hid herself and her small sled behind the rocks, planning to wait until the other party left - but the ground suddenly shook.

Sejuani, who was familiar with Ornkar, certainly knew that the source of the vibration was the tundra iceworm. This time, she could no longer suppress her curiosity and quietly poked her head out, only to see an astonishing scene.

With one man and one sword, Yasuo simply fed the head of a huge Tundra Ice Worm Owl to the dog!
