Farming with Entries: From Lord to Emperor Chapter 635 307: Strike the Old Neighbor First

...

...

Icefield Mountain Range deep within.

The piercing cold wind howled across the peaks.

Luo De tightened his thick fur cloak, with frost clinging to his eyebrows and the hair on his forehead.

Avril and Vivian wore even thicker cloaks, following beside Luo De.

"Is it here?"

Luo De halted, pointing at the fissure ahead shrouded in thick ice layers.

White Wolf glanced around, unconsciously furrowing his brows,

"The mountains covered with snow look similar... but the direction is correct."

"Then it should be fine."

Luo De looked at the dark fissure and said, "Frost searched around and this is the only fissure cave."

"Let go in first and take a look."

White Wolf agilely jumped to the edge of the fissure, using the protrusions on the edge to skillfully leap inside, disappearing into the darkness.

Soon, his head erged from the dark, shouting from below the fissure,

"It's here."

"Okay."

Luo De tied a sturdy hemp rope to Frost's paw, tossed the other end below the fissure, and then slid down following the rope.

Actually, Luo De could jump down like White Wolf without the rope, but it posed a danger to Avril.

After Luo De landed, Avril and Vivian slid down successively.

Avril then murmured a few spells, creating a light ball in the air to illuminate the space within the fissure.

It turns out, White Wolf's earlier description was not entirely accurate.

There's more than just rune-carved stone altars, but also dilapidated stone pillars and statues, with do covered in thick ice.

Inside resembles a temple clearly.

Apart from these, in the temple corner lies Luo De's target for this journey — a simple tomb made of piled rocks and ice blocks.

Luo De wasted no ti and directly instructed, "Avril, research the array, Vivian, scout around."

"Okay."

The two nodded and imdiately began their tasks.

Luo De waved at White Wolf, rushed to the tomb, and began removing the stone and ice pieces.

Ola's corpse gradually revealed.

It was fairly well-preserved, looking about thirty years old, with facial contours still clear, high brow bones, and a straight nose bridge.

It appeared pale due to ice freezing, with an unnatural bluish tint, yet vaguely traceable to his noble appearance.

But his clothing was torn, shirt stained with large blood patches, and no adornnts on him.

"Your life seems humble."

Luo De sighed and then asked, "See if there's anything worth keeping for mory?"

White Wolf jumped to his body, tore his sleeve apart, bit out a golden shield emblem from inside and gave it to Luo De.

"It's the Shuiyan Clan's emblem, the most vital proof of my identity," White Wolf explained.

Luo De looked at the cracked shield emblem, nodding slightly,

"Don't worry, I'll keep it safe."

After finishing, the emblem disappeared in Luo De's hand, placed into storage space.

Luo De briefly arranged Ola's remains, binding it with hemp rope, carrying it below the fissure exit.

Then he turned to Avril and squatted,

"How's the research?" Luo De asked.

Avril was here solely to study the rune array.

Avril frowned slightly, shaking her head, "It's too vast, I can't discern it."

"Only a few runes relate to bloodlines and souls."

Avril showed slight regret, "It requires more ti to understand, but even then, it's uncertain."

"Forget it for now, it's not going anywhere."

Luo De grabbed Avril's arm, pulling her up, "We have more important things to do."

Not only processing Ola's remains, but also knights' potion production needed urgent mass production.

Given Black Pine Ridge had wizard apprentices, Luo De would leverage their power during the war; otherwise, it was pointless keeping them.

Avril also realized war readiness was crucial now, nodding in agreent.

While they talked, Vivian approached and handed Luo De a piece of blue-white crystal stone.

"Frost Extraordinary Gemstone?"

Luo De looked surprised at Vivian, "Where'd you find that?"

Vivian pointed towards the decrepit statue, "Embedded in the hand's ornant, only found one."

"Finding even one is good enough."

Luo De fiddled with the gemstone, slightly larger than a fingernail, speaking with interest, "Seems this site is a relic; who knows what other discoveries if fully excavated."

But Luo De didn't have such energy now; ordinary people working here would need Frost Resistance Potion constantly.

"Let's move, need to hurry back."

Luo De stored the Frost Extraordinary Gemstone, tied Ola's corpse with a rope, and shouted outside,

"Frost, pull it up!"

"Hoo."

Frost growled in response, then flapped his wings to ascend, pulling the corpse out of the fissure.

Frost then lifted Luo De, Avril, and others in the sa way.

Afterwards, with Frost pulling the corpse, Luo De and Avril rode on two other dragons back to Frost Leaf Town.

As for White Wolf, he had to run back himself.

No choice; White Wolf's weight was too much for the dragons right now.

...

...

Returning from the Icefield Mountain Range to Frost Leaf Town, the Frost Iron Guard carried Ola's corpse and followed Avril into the cellar.

Mussen, along with the wizard apprentices, had already arranged the array below the cellar, and next, Avril would personally lead the processing.

Luo De then got busy with military preparations.
