Upon arriving at the glacier, Lu Ye glanced around and realized it was still early; moreover, the moonlight shone brightly on the snow, offering a completely unobstructed view and a vast expanse.
Since they still had plenty of energy, the group continued on their way westward.
Finally, at the confluence of the glaciers, there is a frozen lake.
The lake was shrouded in a very cold aura. Lu Ye could sense that this aura was different from the natural low temperature; it had a subtle magical quality to it.
It seems I'm right, the Ice Dragon—Polylios.
It is the dragon that knows the exact location where Vic is being held. Finding it is the same as finding Vic.
But the frozen lake area is so large that it would take most of the day to ride a horse around it, not to mention the possibility of getting lost.
A-Tui tried calling out a few times, but the sound was drowned out by the wind and snow.
Lu Ye waved his hand and said, "That won't work. If you want to get its attention, you have to make a big fuss."
After saying that, Lu Ye stared at the staff that A Tui had tucked into the shoulder strap of his backpack.
A-Tui was taken aback, but then he understood what Lu Ye meant.
According to Lance Sanks, the Ice Dragon is similar to Smarag, also being a magical dragon.
If the magic released is powerful enough, it can attract its arrival.
Ame poured the Holy Grail into the bottle and then raised his staff.
Origin Magic – Destruction Meteor – was instantly unleashed.
Countless deep blue magic stones gathered and danced in the air. Although A-Tui was not yet a very good magician, the meaning of exploring the Radiant Stone contained in this Origin Magic could not be stopped.
After unleashing the attack, a cold wind howled in front of him, but nothing seemed to have changed.
“It doesn’t seem to be working…” A-Tui scratched the pot cover.
Could it be that the dragon isn't here? Lu Ye wondered curiously.
He pulled out a heart rate monitor, seemingly defying all superstition, but the display showed no signs of life other than those of the few people on it.
Just as Lu Ye was preparing to find another way.
A large red dot appeared in the heartbeat detector, pointing due north.
Lu Ye suddenly raised his head and looked ahead, but all he could see was a vast expanse of icy mist.
Suddenly the wind and snow changed direction and came crashing down from above.
Lu Ye looked up and saw a hazy, enormous body rapidly approaching.
That's the ice dragon—Polylios!
Judging from the momentum of their charge, it seems that the other party sees them as intruders.
Without further hesitation, Lu Ye called out to Icarus.
Chapter 660 Vic's Sealed Prison
A black honeycomb structure covered the area around the leaf.
Although both [Permanent Tracking Missile] and [Absolute Defense] are Icarus's powers.
However, the degree to which the two attract the attention of the supreme will is different.
The former, with its straightforward destructive power, would arouse the high vigilance of the supreme will.
The latter is merely a force, much like the numerous faiths in the borderlands. The supreme will will also perceive it, and while it will pay attention, it will not be alarmed.
To avoid a repeat of what happened in Red Lion City, Lu Ye generally tries to avoid using Icarus's power.
But the other side is a dragon.
Although he's an acquaintance of Lance Sanx... no, a familiar dragon.
However, the other party was unaware of their identities and purpose, simply regarding them as intruders, and thus launched a fierce attack.
The cold fog over this frozen lake is part of the power of Polylios.
Lu Ye dared not be careless, so he immediately activated his strongest defense.
The ice dragon pounced, its agile body sweeping over the ice lake several meters above it, its sharp claws sweeping towards Lu Ye and A Tui without hesitation.
However, this swift attack failed to break through the defensive limitations of the [Absolute Defense Circle].
This made him a little curious about the person in front of him.
The ice dragon abruptly landed on the surface of the frozen lake and retracted its enormous wings.
"Is this magic? No, I don't feel any magical energy flowing through me. It's something I don't know. What is it?"
As expected, the ice dragon Polylios did not launch another attack.
As Lance Sanks said, dragons who have studied magic usually have a particularly strong sense of curiosity.
“A defensive device,” Lu Ye said. “We were sent by Lance Sands.”
“Lance Sanx… Ah, I see,” Polylius suddenly realized, “So they found the Faded One who has the ability to come here, and want to rescue the ‘quasi-king’ who has been driven mad by the Mad Fire.”
The "quasi-king" that Bolius refers to is actually Vic.
That's not wrong, because at that time Vic was indeed very close to being part of the Elden Ring.
"Yes, so could you take us to the sealed prison where Vic is being held?" Lu Ye asked.
"Of course not."
Surprisingly, Bolius rejected Luye.
Lu Ye wondered what was going on. Could it be that Bolius and Lance Sanx didn't have such a good relationship?
“Even if Lance Sanx came here in person, she would have to leave something behind if she wanted to get that guy’s position,” Polylios said. “The trick you used just now seems like a good bargaining chip.”
Lu Ye understood.
Bolius wanted to know the secrets of the [Absolute Defense Circle] and obtain more power.
The key point is that Lu Ye is in a state of "being born of a mother" regarding this.
He's just someone who uses tools; he doesn't know the principles behind them.
Besides, even if you knew, you couldn't use it!
Lu Ye tried to use the [Topus Force Field] to get away with it, but he was still exposed.
"Humans, how dare you deceive me? Do you think I can't sense magical fluctuations?!"
Bolius was clearly radiating anger.
Seeing this situation, Lu Ye thought to himself that he had no choice but to use this method.
However, just as he was about to offer something to negotiate with the Ice Dragon, the Soul-Summoning Bell rang softly.
“Since negotiations are useless, let’s fight. If we win, you’ll have to obediently tell us where Vic is!” A-Tui declared confidently.
Melina covered her face.
Ah Tui's actions were truly thoughtless.
For a dragon with a strong sense of curiosity, there are still many things about Lu Ye that can interest it.
For example, that machine that can make taiyaki without limit.
However, Melina felt somewhat guilty for not noticing A-Tui's behavior in time and stopping her.
Lu Ye didn't think it was a big deal.
The stone slab is in his hands; if he wants it to turn back into a dragon, he'll have to offer some benefits.
I originally thought I would have to fight the Ice Dragon Bolius.
Unexpectedly, Bolius stared quietly at the summoning bell in Ame's hand and slowly spoke.
"Where did you get this thing?"
"Huh? Is that important?"
Realizing that the other party had no intention of attacking, A-Tui hesitated whether he should send the Lost Knight and the Little Devil to beat him up.
"You want to know the location of Vic, who's been driven mad by the madness?" Polylius said coldly. "Then answer my question!"
"Okay, someone gave it to me. It's called Witch Reina..."
"Lena? No, you're lying to me, Lena is long dead!" Polylios became agitated, and the fierce wind and snow began to swirl around his majestic body.
“Listen to what others have to say. ‘Lena’ is a pseudonym,” Lu Ye said at this moment. “That person’s real name is Lani.”
Lu Ye is no longer worried about Lani's identity being exposed.
She has obtained the Hunter's Finger Knife, and it is unknown whether she has yet to defeat the two fingers that found her and made her a candidate for God of Man.
Having come this far, there's naturally no need to worry about her identity.
"Lani?"
Bolius calmed down a bit.
"So that's how it is, it's Rena's child... That makes sense now, no, it doesn't make sense, why would she give you the summoning bell?"
Even if you ask me, I don't know!
Polylios slowly approached Ame and paced around her, his gaze as if he were scrutinizing his prey.
It wasn't until he saw the spirit horse whistle on A-Tui's finger that he showed a look of surprise and sudden realization.
Polylios looked at A-Mei: "Take off the hood."
"what?"
“Take off the hood, and I’ll take you to Vic’s Sealed Prison.”
"But you just said you'd take us there if I answered your question!"
“I didn’t say that… I said, if you want to know the location, just answer me. I didn’t make any promises to you,” Polylius said. “Now is the time. Take off your hoods, and I’ll take you to Vic’s Sealed Prison.”
With that, Politics turned to Luye.
"You're her companion, so persuading her to take this off shouldn't be too difficult, right?"
