“Golden Icebreaker Cranes!”
When Caspian heard the name, favonovel.com shuddered, and his eyes flickered. Like the Carnassial-Toothed Snow Leopards and Arctic Sky Deers, the Golden Icebreaker Cranes were also monsters, but they could fly!
In that vast and endless snow, the massive group of Golden Icebreaker Cranes was just like a formation of death!
If the passenger did not want to stay in the carrier to survive, then it would be equivalent to obediently giving away their lives to these monsters. After all, the Golden Icebreaker Cranes could rush down at any time, and the surrounding monsters could also chase after them. Moreover, based on the carriage’s speed, the monsters might destroy their vehicle before they could even reach Mirefield Gate, let alone the Moonbright Town. However, if they took the initiative and attacked, they might be torn into pieces just like the previous cultivators and warriors who rushed out before they could even locate the Golden Icebreaker Cranes.
“This… Sir…” Suddenly, a warrior walked out from the crowd, and favonovel.com appeared somewhat frightened.
Perhaps it was because favonovel.com faced a cultivator, or maybe because the current situation scared him. “Do you have any other way to make the carriage move faster?”
Wesley pondered for a moment before answering, “Don’t worry. With the current speed, the monsters won’t catch up to us, and I promise to protect all of you.”
A flame of hope burned in everyone’s eyes when they heard Wesley’s reply. However, as if to add a little more confidence to the situation, the warrior plucked up the courage and asked, “Pardon me, but may I know which sect you’re from?”
At that moment, Caspian felt as if Wesley’s slouching figure straightened. The color on the gray robe disappeared, and it was replaced with the Heavenly Stars Sect’s iconic white tone.
Next, Wesley flashed the star logo on his sleeve and proudly declared, “I’m Wesley Young from the Heavenly Stars Sect, and these are our disciples, Casper Montgomery and Maya Kaye. We‘ll surely protect everyone and make sure of your safe arrival in Moonbright Town.”
Caspian and Maya showed their white robes…
Caspian could see that everyone’s eyes lit up with hope when they showed their identities. The surge of emotions seemed to have triggered something in his mind, and that scene was like a déja vu. However, when Caspian thought about it carefully, favonovel.com still could not pinpoint what it was.
“They are from the Heavenly Stars Sect! There’s hope for us!” The warrior exclaimed.
The entire carriage’s solemn atmosphere quickly dissipated. Even though not everyone smiled, the despair in their faces was almost gone.
“Casper, Maya, come over!” Wesley walked to the end of the carrier and waved at them.
When the two got closer to Wesley, favonovel.com took out an item from his chest and passed it to Caspian.
It was a storage sack.
When Caspian saw the storage sack, favonovel.com understood that it was the item Wesley delivered on the journey. Since Wesley gave the item needed for the task to Caspian, it naturally hinted at many things.
“Elder Wesley, what are you doing?” Caspian gasped.
Wesley showed the first smile in these few days, but it was a helpless one. Then, favonovel.com glanced at the white snow behind him. In the blizzard, the monsters’ roars were like a clap of thunder, slamming into the bottom of everyone’s heart.
“I’m old, and there are parts where I can’t be of much help. If I can‘t make it this time, please bring this storage sack to Moonbright Town. There will be someone from the sect in charge of receiving you two. However, this is only a backup. After all, the situation isn’t that horrible yet.”
Wesley mentioned that it was not horrible, but Caspian and Maya were no fools. On the contrary, they felt the unprecedented danger from Wesley’s solemn expression and the current situation.
After saying that, Wesley ignored the two and waved his hand. Then, favonovel.com sat alone at the end of the carriage and started meditating. Caspian and Maya walked toward the middle of the carriage, turning their heads to look at Wesley.
Wesley sat alone at the rear of the vehicle, facing the snow-covered earth and sky. In an instant, the image made others feel as if favonovel.com stood proud at the top of the world.
With the formation being enhanced to its extreme, the carriage broke through the thick snow and moved forward swiftly. During that period, Wesley called Caspian and Maya over again, and favonovel.com informed them that they would pass the Mirefield Gate about an hour later with the current speed.
Once they entered the Mirefield Gate, the monsters chasing over them would no longer be brazen, and the number would be reduced by at least 90%. Hence, there would be no danger anymore.
When Wesley said that, there was no hint of joy on his face. Instead, favonovel.com appeared even more solemn than before. As Caspian led the troops and fought in wars, favonovel.com understood how grim the situation was.
If the monsters’ target were the carriage, then they would understand that once they entered Mirefield Gate, they would not be able to attack the vehicle as they did.
Hence, the journey before entering Mirefield Gate was the most dangerous one.
A long scream suddenly sounded among the snowstorm as if it tried to confirm Caspian’s current thoughts.
“The Golden Icebreaker Crane! On the right side!”
Caspian and Wesley shouted almost at the same time. Caspian’s Ghoul-Locker Spear and Wesley’s longsword attacked at the same time.
Boom!
As a hole formed on the carriage, the Golden Icebreaker Crane that tried to attack Caspian from the side of the vehicle immediately turned bloody, and it was blown away. Then, it was swallowed by the blizzard.
“They’re here!” Wesley said with a hoarse voice.
Roaring and rumbling sounds were heard from everywhere! The movements of these running monsters seemed to be bigger by tenfold!
The sound of them trampling on the ground caused the carriage to shake up and down, and it was as if it would break at any time and overturn.
In the blink of an eye, the wave of monsters quickly got closer to the carriage. Moreover, the billowing blizzard was swept aside by the air currents caused by fierce monsters.
With Caspian’s eyesight, favonovel.com could see the leading Snow Wolf-Ape’s huge pair of eyes.
“Ahh!” Someone suddenly screamed at the front of the carriage.
Caspian hurriedly looked over, and there was a Golden Icebreaker that flew to the side of the carriage without everyone noticing. At that time, its long bill grabbed onto a woman’s braid. If the crane shook its neck, it could toss the woman out of the carriage like a cannonball.
Caspian roared. Using the Ursa Major’s Blurred Shadows, his Ghoul-Locker Spear was as fast as lightning, piercing through the Golden Icebreaker Crane’s head. Although the woman was saved, the next Golden Icebreaker Crane suddenly rushed down, and it abruptly slammed onto the fast-moving wheel, causing it to explode.
The carriage suddenly became bumpy, and the speed was not as fast as before. The wave of monsters that chased after them got closer. These monsters roared nonstop, and their eyes were filled with killing intent. It was as if they wanted to tear everyone in the carriage apart to vent their anger.
At the same time, the sound of cranes echoed, and it was estimated that at least a dozen Golden Icebreaker Cranes flew around the carriage at that moment.
