Chapter 221 [Tolerate the environment +]
Origin:
1 ring - [Small Ice Element] (7/7)
Finally, another one-ring source collection is full.
Looking at the flashing entries in the source information column, Gao De took a long breath and felt a little happy in his heart.
Although it is a soft persimmon, "Wind Spirit Moon Shadow" doesn't care about this.
As long as the level is a link, everyone is treated equally.
As for how to use this source, Gaode has already decided.
He turned his attention to the spell column, flashing over the flashing "+" signs, and finally landed on [Endure Environment].
[Endure Environment] is the spell most suitable for his specialty [Adaptive]. Its importance is self-evident, and the priority for adding points is naturally at the top.
With a thought, the origin of [Small Ice Element] has already flown out of the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow and merged into the spell model of [Endure Environment].
A moment later.
【Endure Environment+】(Protection, Level 1):
A subject protected by Endurance Environment will not be harmed by cold or hot environments, and can comfortably stay in an environment of -50 to 140 degrees Fahrenheit (-45.6 to 60 degrees Celsius). The subject's equipment is also protected.
Extra: In addition to hot and cold environments, it can also protect against other harsh environments: smoke, thin air, etc.
Comparing with [Endure Environment], [Endure Environment+] can be said to have changed from the most suitable [Adaptive] to "tailor-made" for [Adaptive].
Although what is improved is not the tolerable temperature range, the expansion of applicability is far better than simply improving the spell effect in terms of potential.
Since entering Dandong Xuefeng until now, Gaode has actually not encountered any truly dangerous situation, and the gains have been considerable.
Obviously, the resources of Dandong Xuefeng are nothing more than a side dish compared to the vast northern territory.
God knows what kind of harvest we will get when we really reach the northern border.
As you go up further, the slope of the snow peak becomes steeper and steeper, and there are fewer and fewer sections of road where you can stay.
Gradually, you will have to use your hands and feet together, and you will even need to use an ice ax on some slopes to continue moving forward, and your movement will begin to be limited.
In this case, if you encounter earth line creatures again, the danger level will be greatly increased.
Because Gaode at this moment is equivalent to a living target hanging on the ice wall.
Once you encounter an enemy, you can only face them head-on, without much room for maneuver.
Fortunately, Flora can fly and has a keen sense of perception, which can help Gothe do a good job in detection and warning, thus allowing him to avoid many dangers in advance.
"Mage, there is a grass on the right that is a little valuable."
A little valuable is a level 0 magic plant, and a valuable piece of grass is a level 1 magic plant.
Gothe has mastered the logic of Flora’s speech.
"Ignore it for now." Gao De said.
After the strong wind, some layers of snow were lifted up, and the magic plants hidden under the snow were exposed.
In addition, this strong wind seemed to have brought a small cold current to Dandong Snow Peak, and the temperature dropped by more than ten points.
There are some extremely special magic plants that require the temperature to drop to a certain level in order to bloom and bear fruit.
Hence, more and more magic plants can be seen along the way.
But considering the current inconvenience of movement and weight-bearing issues, Gaode has already begun to give up on the zero-level magic plants.
Only first-level magic plants worth more than ten gold coins are worth his effort to collect.
"Mage, can you grow wings in the future?" Looking at Gothe who was struggling to move forward, Flora flapped her small wings and asked again.
r/>
"Can Lady Flora grow up in the future?"
"I'm afraid not."
"That's it."
"Oh~~"
Himmediately, Gaode encountered the same problem that Du Wei had encountered.
As the altitude increases and the slope becomes steeper, it becomes more and more difficult to find a suitable and comfortable foothold.
More importantly, the rate of temperature drop has exceeded normal conditions and ranges.
At night, Gothe, who reluctantly found a small leeward place to stay, felt the bone-deep cold for the first time.
That is the cold that even the cold resistance improved through [Adaptive] long-term adaptation cannot withstand.
In this case, Gaode had no choice but to activate his own safeguard measures:
He gave himself a [Endure Environment+].
With the blessing of the spell, the bone-chilling chill dissipated a lot in an instant.
Even the faint appearance of altitude sickness also disappeared.
But [Adaptive] is still quickly adapting to the current extreme environment.
Before resting, according to Gaode's perception, the improvement in cold resistance was still 61%.
When I woke up the next morning, the cold resistance had increased to 75%.
Just one night's work, a 14% improvement.
Gaode increasingly felt that he was in the right place.
Dandong Xuefeng's rich resources are secondary, and his improved abilities are what really make him feel like he's making a lot of money.
Ability is priceless!
After packing up and saluting, Gaode set off again.
· Today’s journey, the slope has finally returned to the level where I can walk on two feet, but I still need the support of a wooden stick to stand up straight.
The road ahead is still filled with unpredictable risks.
Gaode kept his mood calm and just climbed up step by step.
The snow layer is getting thicker and thicker.
Every time you step on it, it will sink into the snow, stir up a small cloud of snow dust, and then leave a clear footprint.
This makes every step extremely draining of energy.
Along the way, let alone catching up with Du Wei, Gothe had not even seen his footprints.
But he was not in a hurry.
Obviously, the opponent's mage level is much higher than his, so it is not surprising that he can get rid of him first under deliberate competition.
But it still takes a long time.
With his [Adaptive] ability, his power stage is in the second half of the race.
By then, Du Wei's climbing speed of Dandong Snow Peak will drop significantly, but he will not change much, and may even be unaffected.
At that time, it was time for him to catch up from behind.
…
Now that I have climbed the snow peak, even finding the way has become a big problem.
Because at this moment, many areas are covered with cliffs. If you want to continue moving forward, you can only choose to take a detour.
If you go around like this a few times, the direction will naturally deviate.
Above the snow-capped mountains, there is the same white snow again. It is naturally not easy to return to the original position without a reference.
Fortunately, Flora was still flying forward and backward. While scouting for Gaode, she could also guide him and correct the direction in a timely manner.
"Mage, Mage!"
At this moment, Flora, who had gone ahead to explore the way, hurriedly shouted and flew back.
It's just that compared to her petite body, even if she yells very hard, it's not very loud.
Yes, it’s shouting.
It is not spiritual communication.
After spending time together, Flora has gradually mastered his language.
"Lord Flora, what did you find?" Gothe asked as Flora flew closer.
"There is a very valuable flower in front of me, in a dark cave."
"It's very valuable."
"Yes, it's very valuable."
"Does Flora know what its use is?"
"You'll know if you get closer."
"Why don't you get closer."
"So big."
After Flora's careful gestures and descriptions, Gothe roughly outlined the specific situation:
A magic plant of at least the second level or above, growing in a cave.
It's just that there is a "snow leopard" type earth creature living in the cave, which is far more dangerous than the previous small ice element.
Heavenly materials and earthly treasures + guardian beasts.
What a classic configuration
