Above the mage!

Chapter 217 Two Young Men Climbing the Mountain

In such an era, adhering to these so-called seven principles seems to be extremely incredible or even naive and ridiculous.

But for Du Wei, this is nothing strange.

There is nothing special about his name.

But his surname: "Liszt" has the most glorious heritage and history in the world.

A long time ago, this surname stood proudly above all others.

Even now, after the evolution of time, the rise of one surname after another, and the replacement of one regime after another, "Lister" is still one of the most honorable surnames in the world, and we can even boldly say that there is no other.

"Liszt" has always been proud of its own traditions and heritage, and regards ancient teachings as the supreme criterion.

In their view, a large part of the reason why "Liszt" has been able to withstand the test of time and remain immortal is because it adheres to ancient teachings and puts glory first.

Duve Lister thinks so too.

The sky quickly darkened and then entered complete darkness.

Du Wei has not yet found a suitable place to settle down.

But he did not fall into the dilemma of being completely in the dark.

Following a slight and imperceptible fluctuation of magical power, his golden pupils were gradually covered with a layer of deep blue, as if they could see through all the darkness and secrets.

As this layer of dark blue appeared, the surrounding scene changed in Du Wei's eyes.

The originally pitch-black environment, where one could not see one's hand in front of one's face, became clearly visible in his eyes.

【Dark Vision】.

If Gao De were here, he would be very surprised to see this scene.

[Darkvision] is a second-level spell.

This meant that Du Wei, a young man who looked only two or three years older than him, was already at least a second-ring mage.

This is a very exaggerated thing.

With the dual blessing of [Long Stride] and [Dark Vision], Du Wei moved quickly and continued to look for a place to stay tonight.

Given Du Wei's status, he naturally wouldn't have the intention or should not have the intention to "love" so-called mountaineering.

The challenge of mountain climbing is nothing to his life.
However, the process of conquering the extreme environment on this continent can sharpen one's mind and cultivate one's temperament.

This kind of mentality and temperament is exactly what Liszt must possess.

These are the words left by the first generation head of the Lister family.

Along with this sentence, what remained were the “Eight Items of Glorious Servants”.

Climbing to the top of Dandong Snow Peak is one of them.

The Liszt heritage has lasted for so long that even Du Wei sometimes cannot remember the family history clearly.

But the "Glorious Eight" has always been one of Liszt's important traditions.

Therefore, Du Wei, who is of extremely noble status, appeared in Ellaheim quietly.

In fact, Du Wei also enjoyed the process of completing the "Eight Glorious Items".

At least in this process, he can temporarily put aside the huge pressure he is under and just consider the present.

And every time he completes a challenge, the spontaneous feeling of satisfaction will make Du Wei feel a moment of relaxation and joy.

Ten minutes later, Du Wei finally found another suitable place to stay.

Without hesitation, he quickly cleared the ground and set up the tent.
As for Gao De, who landed at the first place he found, Du Wei no longer considered him.

Because Du Wei was sure that would be their first and only meeting in the Dandong Snow Peak.

The distance between the two will only widen further.

"It's better to give up as soon as possible." Du Wei thought.

How could a man who was obviously younger than him, whose mage level was impossible to surpass him, let alone be on par with him, challenge Dandong Xuefeng under such conditions.

Because apart from other things, after reaching the halfway point, the temperature of Dandong Snow Peak will exceed the [Tolerable Environment] protection range of -45.6 degrees. And as the altitude increases, the temperature will only get lower and lower.

It is absolutely impossible to complete this challenge if you are not a top-notch battle mage.

No, it should be said that even the top battle mages may not be able to complete this challenge.

The highest mountain that Gao De had climbed in his previous two lives was actually Mount Tai, which is known as the "No. 1 Mountain in the World."

It cannot be said that it is not magnificent, but compared with the Dandong Snow Peak, at least in terms of difficulty, it is a bit too easy.

Even with [Adaptation], he had to admit that climbing the Dandong Snow Peak was an extremely difficult task.

Even if we ignore the extreme environment, the physical exertion of mountaineering is extraordinary.

But while he was tired, Gaode's spirit was filled with excitement that contradicted his physical fatigue.

Faced with this difficult but unknown challenge, Gaode found that he was not afraid but excited.

It turns out that a person's character is reflected in the same way in different things.

Just like solving a problem, facing an unknown difficulty, Gaode's emotions are often the same.

Because he knew the satisfaction he would get after solving such a difficult problem.

After another three days of hard work, Du Wei arrived at a landmark halfway point on the Dandong Snow Peak.

Here, there is a protruding platform.

Standing on this platform, you can have a bird's-eye view and have a clear view of the entire Ellaheim.

Once you cross this platform, you will truly enter the Dandong Snow Peak restricted area.

The temperature will officially drop below the minimum tolerable temperature of the [tolerable environment].

The underground creatures that were occasionally seen in the first half will become more common, ferocious and powerful after this.

Like all climbers who challenge this snowy peak, Du Wei went up to the observation deck to take a brief rest before the next challenge and also to enjoy the "beautiful scenery".

Looking down, Ellaheim has become extremely small, and the buildings look like black dots.

"The Holy Empire." Du Wei suddenly thought of the news he heard in Ellaheim.

His brows had subconsciously furrowed.

When I left, Ellaheim still belonged to the Principality of Sean.

But when he arrived in Ellaheim, Ellaheim already belonged to the Sean Province and the Holy Empire.

Du Wei did not think that the Holy Empire's capture of the Principality of Sean in the form of an enclave was simply a territorial expansion.

Obviously, Du Wei had smelled something he didn't like.

"The glory of the past cannot always shine upon the present,"

There is no flower in the world that never fades.

As times change, even the Broom must find ways to meet new challenges.

"Father must be having a headache right now." A mischievous smile appeared on the corner of the young Du Wei's lips, which shouldn't have appeared.

Only in this situation without servants and without excessive attention from the outside world would he express such emotions that belong to a young man.

But it was obvious that Du Wei was not used to this kind of emotion, and his smile soon stopped.

After briefly changing to a slightly embarrassed expression, he quickly returned to his usual "expressionless" expression that made it impossible to tell what he was thinking and what he was feeling.

Withdrawing his gaze from Ellaheim, Du Wei prepared to continue on his journey.

However, just as he was looking away, his pupils suddenly shrank.

Because he saw a small but "familiar" figure.

A figure he thought he would never see again.
