Chapter 300: Sauna and Exploration
Chapter 300: Sauna and Exploration
Near noon, Roy finished talking with Xuesi and, led by the waiter, came to the residence of the doctor and others.
When Roy came back, it was lunch time. The Elafia girls served the guests a sumptuous Sami-style lunch and then left.
It was time for them to eat, and their mother should have prepared the meal and was waiting for them to come home.
The girls were chosen by Anma and were the future heirs of the Snow Priest. They usually helped the Snow Priest clean up the room and prepare for the divination ceremony, and were highly respected in the tribe.
"Roy, what did you talk about with that Snow Priest?" At the dinner table, the doctor asked Roy the question in his mind.
"I explained to him that we were heading for the star gate at the end of the ice sheet. He was willing to send the most experienced warrior in the tribe to lead us through the dangerous mountains."
"It's better not to have outsiders involved in our operations..." Kal'tsit said lightly after swallowing the tender fish.
"I did not accept the help of that Snow Priest. Anma will make sure we reach the Star Gate safely."
"Your Highness, have you seen Anma?" "No, I can hear His voice, faint and weak."
"Has the damage caused by the disaster to this land become so serious?" A trace of sadness flashed across Elki's calm face.
She grew up in this land and has deep feelings for Sami. The Cyclops left Kazdel and fought against the disaster on the ice field for thousands of years.
Keeping danger out of the center of Terra civilization is the mission of the Cyclops.
Elki returned to Sami this time to seek help from the elders of the tribe.
The Sami tribe does not welcome outsiders to intervene in the fight against disasters, believing that these outsiders will only hinder their efforts.
However, the method of training excellent warriors who can fight against the disaster is both old-fashioned and inefficient. The loss of legion personnel and equipment can no longer keep up with the speed of the disaster.
Elki hopes that this contact will slightly change the Sami Snow Priests' ideas about outsiders, and that they will try to use the power of technology to fight the disaster together with other countries.
"Your Highness, can I accompany you on the journey to that door?" Elki made a request to Roy. She wanted to observe the source of the disaster up close.
I wonder what kind of enlightenment the illusory fate will bring to this young Cyclops.
"Of course. We'll rest in the tribe for one night and set off early tomorrow morning." Under Kal'tsit's nose, Roy picked up a piece of bacon for the doctor.
"Roy, the girls who brought us lunch just now told me that the unique Sami herbal sauna is good for the body. It can strengthen the body and drive away the cold and dampness."
"Should we try it out? Has Miss Elki ever tried it?"
"I've tried it. It feels so good after steaming. Saunas are very common in Sami. There's one next door to us."
When talking about Sami traditional customs, the taciturn Elki also became talkative.
"Is there anything I need to pay attention to?"
"Don't go to the sauna on an empty stomach or with a full stomach. During the sauna, make sure to drink plenty of water. There's nothing else to worry about."
It has been more than half a year since Elki left Sami. When he talks about taking a sauna now, he misses the steamy feeling.
"It sounds good... Roy, Kal'tsit, after dinner, let's go to the sauna together." The doctor held Roy and Kal'tsit's hands, full of energy.
"Okay, since the doctor wants to go, I'll relax as well." Roy agreed readily. He also wanted to experience the herbal sauna.
"Where's Kal'tsit?"
"Okay, you decide." Kal'tsit said briefly and nodded in agreement.
……
After lunch, the Doctor and Kal'tsit stayed in the room to rest, while Roy took Elki for a walk around.
The towering snow-white mountains in the north are the iconic Sami terrain - the Dongya Mountains.
Cross the mountains and continue northward to enter the ice field.
The Sami land beneath our feet is where a giant beast that survived an ancient war lurks.
Among the behemoths that survived in Terra, he should be the most powerful one. Unfortunately, he was injured, and the torture of the evil spirit made Sami weaker and weaker.
"Elki, let's cross the snow mountain and explore the way in advance for tomorrow's operation." Roy did not find anything unusual in the forest and decided to go to the other side of the mountain to take a look.
"Yes, Your Highness." Elqi lowered his eyebrows and stood beside Roy.
The anti-gravity spell carried the two of them up into the sky, where they could see the vast and magnificent scenery.
"Will it be cold?" The cold wind from high altitude blew snowflakes onto Roy's face, and he felt a stinging pain on his cheeks.
"There are some..." Elqi blew on his cold palms and put on his animal skin hood silently.
"Haha, I'm a little cold too." In order to block the cold wind outside, Roy activated a layer of magic shield and increased his speed.
After all, I have to come back early to eat and then accompany the doctor to the sauna.
The scenery on the ice field is very monotonous, with only the simplest black and white colors, and no signs of any life activity can be found.
Roy didn't know how long he had been flying, but the outline of the star gate had not appeared. He began to suspect that he had gone in the wrong direction.
The flight slowed down, and Roy stopped and looked around. The scenery was the same in every direction, with no obvious difference.
"Your Highness, what's wrong?" Elki stopped for some reason and looked at Roy puzzledly and asked.
"We seem to be lost." Roy scratched his head. Now, let alone the star gate, he couldn't even find the way back to the tribe.
"No, my friend, the direction just now is correct. The door is just ahead..." The voice of the ancestor Anma sounded in my mind, and guided the direction with the snowflakes falling from the sky.
“Thank you, Anma.” It’s reassuring to have local gods ready to help at any time.
"No, I should thank you. I just provided a small amount of help."
After flying at full speed for about five minutes in the direction indicated by Anma, Roy finally saw the outline of the damaged star gate.
The surrounding environment also became abnormal. Large patches of flowers rooted in the ice appeared on the ice field, forming a sea of flowers.
