As the violent aura flew past, Anderson suddenly stopped chewing. He waited until the other party was far away, then he swallowed the remaining rabbit meat in one gulp and looked up at Gehrman Sparrow:

"Is this the dragon you were talking about?"

Klein nodded slightly, confirming Anderson's guess.

Anderson's mouth corners slowly curled up, revealing an expression that showed he didn't know whether to cry or laugh:

"I thought you were talking about an adult or even a young dragon. The one just now...

"I probably can't be a dragon hunter, I can only be dragon poop."

The crazy and violent feeling of the "King of the North" is indeed a bit scary. It is much stronger than the patchwork monster that made hair grow wildly that he encountered on the "Future"... Maybe it is Sequence 4, at the level of a demigod... Klein made a calm judgment in his mind without any panic or fear.

He remembered it clearly. It was clearly written in "Groselle's Travels" that the pirate lady was attacked by the "King of the North" and managed to escape after trying her best, and met the protagonist team led by the giant Groselle.

And Edwina Edwards was obviously not a demigod, but belonged to Sequence 5 of the "Reader" path. Moreover, because she was suddenly swallowed into the book, some magical items or sealed objects that were inconvenient to carry for a long time were left in the captain's room. She only had one or two props on her body that she could use.

In this situation, she was able to initially fight against the "King of the North" and survive. Klein, who had just been promoted and adjusted his glove configuration, thought that there would not be too many problems. Moreover, he could also connect to the gray fog and respond with the "Scepter of Poseidon"!

This was why Klein dared to enter directly after confirming that Danitz was in normal condition during prayer.

Well, the "King of the North" is not like a demigod on a normal path. According to Vice Admiral Iceberg, it is an out-of-control monster that has gathered many frost-type Beyonder characteristics. It can be comparable to a demigod in certain areas, but it must have defects in other aspects... I, Edwina, Anderson, and the Beyonders in the protagonist team, it's not that there is no way to solve it! If it doesn't work, you can also use the "Poseidon Scepter". I don't believe that this book can prevent items above the gray fog in advance. If it can, it would have been shown long ago... Standing next to the fire, Klein looked down at Anderson and grinned:

"Are you scared?"

Anderson was stunned for a second, then said with a bright smile:

"Don't be afraid. You seem very confident."

After saying this, he looked at Danitz, who was still trembling and trying to calm down, and said with a sigh:

"You know what's most important to a man?"

Danitz just took a deep breath and was stunned when he heard the words. He raised his right index and middle fingers together uncertainly and pointed downwards.

Anderson blinked and laughed:

“…Asshole, you are such a vulgar pirate!

"Haha, what was I going to say just now? Haha, I can't remember!

"By the way, what I want to talk about is courage. The most important thing for a man is courage. Look at you. You are so scared that you almost want to beg for mercy before the dragon even attacks!"

Danitz's face suddenly turned red, and he glared at the other party.

You didn’t behave like this in Toscart… Klein couldn’t help but mutter inwardly.

Danitz was about to explain that he was simply affected by the aura of the higher-level creatures, but suddenly he remembered something he had just said. His expression immediately returned to normal, and he responded lightly:

"I am no match for dragon shit."

Anderson's smile froze. He coughed twice, then tore off another rabbit leg as if nothing had happened and handed it to Gehrman Sparrow:

"Don't you want to try it?"

Klein was silent for a few seconds and shook his head slowly:

“This is a strange world. It’s best not to eat any food here until you are sure there is no problem.

"Maybe just a piece of rabbit meat will keep you here forever."

"..." Anderson brought the roasted rabbit leg to his nose and mouth, then slowly put it down, his expression gradually falling, "Why didn't you say so earlier?"

Klein responded calmly:

“I just thought of this.”

Anderson's expression twisted for a few seconds, he lowered his head, and quickly started to gnaw on the roasted rabbit leg again.

“Is it really a problem that you’re not afraid?” Danitz was stunned by the actions of the strongest hunter.

Anderson smiled helplessly:

"I've already eaten one before, and I've already digested it... I can't change it anyway, so I might as well just enjoy it."

Klein and Danitz were at a loss for words at this moment.

Anderson finished chewing the rabbit leg and asked carefully:

"You really don't want to eat?

"I don't know how long it will take. If I'm too hungry, what can I use to fight monsters like the dragon just now?"

Klein didn't answer directly. He took out his gold-cased pocket watch, opened it and took a look:

"Outside time, 6:10 in the evening.

"After 4 to 6 hours, if you are in good condition, we can eat small amounts."

“……” Anderson opened his mouth, unable to speak.

Klein ignored him and turned to Danitz and said:

"Rest for a quarter of an hour, then go and look for your captain."

While speaking, he had already taken out the pair of pearl earrings that belonged to "Vice Admiral Iceberg" Edwina Edwards.

"Okay." Danitz suddenly felt his blood boiling, and completely forgot about the cold outside.

After seven or eight seconds, he shrank back towards the fire.

…………

Outside world time, at 7pm, Klein held down his hat and carried his cane. Together with Danitz and Anderson, they found their way to a mountain peak according to the divination.

After passing a huge rock covered with a thick layer of ice, they saw a dark cave. A woman holding an ancient bow and arrow was guarding the entrance.

The woman had soft, shiny black hair tied into a simple ponytail. Her facial features were very soft, which was different from the people in all the countries in the Northern Continent.

She was wearing a brown ancient-style hunter coat and trousers, and she cast her eyes over with keen inspiration.

Seeing her slightly pointed ears and combining it with the contents of Groselle's Travels, Klein immediately knew her identity:

The first female elf to meet the giant Groselle, whose name is unknown.

If compared with Earth, the people of the Northern Continent are closer to the European and American style, while these elves have a distinct oriental charm... Klein quickly summarized the characteristics.

"Elf! She looks exactly like the elves in some ancient religious paintings!" Anderson suddenly got excited. "I have to talk to her and ask her to be my model so I can paint a few pictures of her!"

Danitz, who was standing beside him, sneered and said sarcastically:

"vulgar!"

Obviously, he had not forgotten Anderson's ridicule.

"Do you only understand that kind of painting?" Anderson glanced at him, quickened his pace, and walked towards the female elf.

As soon as he approached, the female elf raised her longbow without hesitation, and the arrow on it flashed with silver-white electric light.

"Stop!" Anderson immediately half-raised his hands.

It’s useless. Most elves belong to the “Storm” path, and are easily irritable and reckless... Klein quietly activated the “Spirit Line”, intending to use preliminary control methods to make the elf listen calmly.

At this moment, Anderson's eyes blurred and he saw two thick and strong gray-blue legs and a terrifying giant sword inserted into the snow!

"..." Anderson was shocked to find that he was only slightly taller than the knee of that leg. He instinctively looked upwards along the lines of the giant sword.

Almost leaning backward, he finally saw clearly that there was a giant nearly four meters tall in front of him!

The giant had a gray-blue complexion, with thick beast fur wrapped around his chest, abdomen, and waist. The rest of his body was exposed, and even his feet were unprotected.

He held a huge sword that was wider than a human door panel, and looked down at Anderson, Klein and others with his iconic vertical single eye. He asked in a booming voice:

“Who are you?

"Why did you come to Groselle's camp?"

Just as Klein was about to answer, a familiar figure suddenly walked out of the dark cave, and Danitz's eyes were filled with ecstasy.

Admiral Iceberg Edwina, who was wearing a complicated shirt and dark trousers, glanced at the three of them. Her usually cold expression showed obvious surprise, as if she did not expect Gehrman Sparrow and Anderson Hood to be here.

She quickly recovered and looked up at the giant and said:

"Groselle, this is my companion."

Groselle grinned and asked happily:

“Are you here to deal with Jurisian as well?

Julian? Klein didn't know how to answer.

At this moment, he saw Edwina, who was standing in the shadow of the giant, winking at him, asking him to give an affirmative answer.

Urisan is equal to the "King of the North"? Klein answered thoughtfully in a low voice:

"Yes."

“Haha, then we are friends!” Groselle looked down at the three people opposite him and laughed.

As he spoke, Anderson quietly retreated to Gehrman Sparrow's side and said in a low voice:

“It was the first time I saw a living giant.

"There's no way this can hit his vital points. It's too high."

You can give him a pedicure... Klein complained and responded calmly:

"A huge target means it's easy to hit."

"...That's right." Anderson agreed.

At this time, Edwina came over and introduced them to the three of them:

“This is the leader of the camp, the Giant Guardian Groselle.

"This is the elf singer Siatas."

Elf singer? Ocean singer? Klein suddenly felt that Mr. Hanged Man's potion formula had hope.

Edwina immediately turned halfway around and said to the giant Groselle and the elf Siatas:

“They are my companions.

"The strongest adventurer Gehrman Sparrow, treasure hunter Anderson Hood, and the famous sailor Danitz."

...I always thought that Vice Admiral Iceberg was the serious type who would not lie...A famous sailor, ha, in a sense, that was also true...Klein took off his hat and saluted seriously, while Anderson followed more casually.

Danitz was delighted that the captain introduced himself as a companion rather than a subordinate, so he was a beat late and appeared flustered.

Groselle laughed and said:

"Come into the camp, we are about to fight the evil dragon Jurisian!"

Very warm and kind... But whether in the church scriptures or the myths of the City of Silver, giants are extremely destructive and violent creatures... Well, anything is possible in the book, it depends on whether the author can make it come true... Klein nodded slightly and followed Groselle into the wide cave.

Seeing this, Edwina approached the three people without any abnormality. She seemed to be leading the way, but in fact she whispered a few words:

“The history they tell is a little strange.”

“The same goes for language. No matter what language we speak, we can understand each other.”
