Chapter 413
……

An invisible gunship flew over the primitive jungle of Caliban and deep into the mountains.

The cold air and cold currents from the northern wilderness were blocked by the majestic and tall mountains. From the gunboat, the inside and outside of the mountains seemed like two completely different worlds.

The gunboat landed nearby in a place where the air currents were not too strong.

Qin Xia and Kang walked out of the gunboat's cabin and took a deep breath of the cold air.

Kowa in the cockpit looked at the two men.

The Lord of the White Knights was still wearing the gorgeous armor, but the spear that was always behind his back was now behind Kang.

With Kang's height, he certainly couldn't carry the spear vertically on his back, so the spear was fixed horizontally on his back, with some large and small packages hanging on it. The different packages contained things that could be used during this trip to the northern wilderness.

Kang was holding the Chaos Artifact in his arms, but of course, in Kova's eyes, it was holding nothing.

"The air currents in the wilderness are too strong, you should return." Qin Xia looked towards the cabin.

Kova sat in the cabin, bent slightly, and then controlled the gunboat to fly in the direction from which he came.

Qin Xia walked towards the top of the mountain.

The snow on the mountain was knee-deep.

When Qin Xia trudged through the snow to the top of the mountain, he subconsciously looked back.

I saw a figure wearing a small hood in the snow, crawling in the snow as deep as his head. The cricket crawled quite fast, as if the snow only had a little effect on it on the visual level, but in fact not only did it not feel cold, it did not even affect its moving speed, but only affected its gait.

Qin Xia and Kang climbed to the top of the mountain. When they saw the northern wasteland on the other side of the mountain range, Qin Xia stood there and admired it for a moment.

There is a starry night sky above our heads, and the gorgeous aurora makes the night sky of Caliban look even more beautiful.

When the strong wind blows across the endless snowfield, the ice beneath the snow will be revealed, reflecting the gorgeous starry sky.

"It's a nice place." Qin Xia spread his arms, stood on the top of the mountain, breathing the cold air, feeling relaxed and happy.

"Really?" Kang walked out of the snow that could bury him and stepped on a stone. "I don't think there's anything good about this damn place."

Qin Xia ignored what Kang said. Although they had not been together for a long time, he had gradually adapted to the habit of this little man in robe to be stubborn.

"According to my plan, we will go to the ruins of the Sirius Knights first." Kang said, "The Sirius Knights were a knight order that was destroyed by Ryan. They were the force that opposed Ryan's slaughter of the behemoths. My people left something in the ruins of the Sirius Knights that can help us locate the Ouroboros."

"I heard that you, the Dark Watchers, once stayed in the wilderness with the Knights of Sirius. Were you not born at that time?" Qin Xia asked.

"I'm over a thousand years old," Kang answered calmly, "but I rarely remember the location of something..."

Qin Xia rolled his eyes at Kang.

Kang pointed to the north: "I only remember that if we go over the Wind Block Mountain and head north, we will find the Knights where the stars gather."

After hearing this, Qin Xia casually turned the stone under Kang's feet into the shape of a ski board, jumped up and landed behind Kang, then used his spiritual power to drive the stone skis to slide down the mountain.

"I suggest we find a place that's sheltered from the wind. The northern wilderness is pretty scary at night," Kang suggested.

But Qin Xia was so focused on skiing that he didn't listen at all. He slid down the mountain and then slid on the ice. After walking an unknown distance, he suddenly saw the starry sky obscured by wind and snow, and a snowstorm was sweeping towards the front.

The blizzard looked even more terrifying than the sandstorm in the Red Sand Desert of Nukeria. It stretched from the ground to the sky, like a snow-white translucent wall pressing down from afar.

Qin Xia and Kang's figures were soon obscured by the snowstorm.

Qin Xia had lost his skis at some point, and could only trek through the snow.

Qin Xia could already see the low temperature warning popping up in the lower right corner of his vision, but the metal used in this set of armor came from Nocturne, the hometown of Vulkan, the Lord of Fire Dragons. There was a kind of peculiar metal produced under the volcano, which could bring warmth to the wearer after making the armor.

Qin Xia is not afraid of blizzards, while Kang is a strange alien creature. They are a clan of watchers who once lived in the wilderness and did not feel cold even though they wore small robes all day long.

In order to search for something, Qin Xia and Kang walked across the wilderness, heading north.

After passing through the snowstorm, Qin Xia saw the outlines of some cities in the distance.

It was an ecological city built by the Empire, allowing the Calibans to migrate to the northern wilderness of the planet and survive without being overcrowded in the living area opened up by their ancestors.

But all the people in those cities have died, transformed by a virus into zombies wandering in the ruins of the cities.

The threats humans face in surviving in this cruel place are not just viruses, but also terrifying wilderness beasts.

Before Qin Xia had time to appreciate the surrounding environment, he saw a large group of ferocious beasts running towards him from a distance and surrounding him.

These beasts look similar to wolves, but only roughly.

They have snow-white fur, their mouthparts are not on their heads but on their abdomens, they are as big as a car and there are a large number of them.

"Descendants of the Caliban beast." Kang scanned these large livestock without moving. "They should not be difficult to deal with."

Qin Xia remained silent, raised his hands and released the simplest psychic spell.

Lightning leaped between the beasts, and every beast that was struck turned into snowflakes floating in the air.

These beasts seemed to have intelligence. After realizing that the humans in front of them possessed powerful strength that they could not match, they quickly dispersed and fled in all directions.

A ferocious beast behind Qin Xia was hit by an arrow shot from the right while fleeing.

The beast's fur, which was hard enough to withstand explosive bombs, was easily penetrated, its fragile internal organs were shattered by the arrows, and its body suddenly stopped and fell into the snow.

Qin Xia heard the sound of arrows flying and looked in the direction of the sound.

In the snow, an old man in a white fur coat climbed up and pointed at the carcass of the beast behind Qin Xia: "Do you mind if I hunt one for us for dinner?"

Qin Xia motioned the old man to do as he pleased, and then asked, "We?" "Yes, we." The old man in the coat walked towards the beast's corpse. He didn't know where he got the strength from, but he actually dragged up the beast's corpse that was much bigger than himself. "Are you people who have strayed into the wilderness? I will take you out tomorrow, but not tonight. It's very dangerous at night."

"We're not lost, but looking for a place. Do you know where the ruins of the Sirius Knights are?" Qin Xia asked.

The old man's eyes flashed, and then he nodded: "Then I won't ask you what you want to do. I will take you there tomorrow... Not at night, it's too dangerous."

Qin Xia thought the old man would ask for some money, but he didn't expect that he would want to invite him to dinner, want to show him the way, and kindly remind him...

So he asked, "Why help me?"

The old man looked confused and looked at Qin Xia in confusion: "Is there any need to ask this? Because you are a human like me. In this hellhole of Caliban, if humans don't support each other, they would have been extinct long ago."

Kang, who was standing aside, looked at the old man in silence for a long time.

The old man couldn't see Kang. In his eyes, there was only Qin Xia, who was in disguise - an ordinary young man about 1.8 meters tall, wearing a white cloak.

"Okay." Qin Xia nodded. "I just asked a few more questions because I forgot that this is Caliban."

……

Qin Xia and Kang followed the old man to a stone house behind a small hill.

The old man threw the beast's body on the ground and pushed open the door.

The cabin is very warm, with various daily necessities placed randomly.

A woman with a pale face was lying on the bed, breastfeeding her baby in her arms.

The woman's husband was boiling water in front of a boiler nearby.

When the couple met Qin Xia, what they saw was not a Space Marine wearing power armor, but a young man who was 1.8 meters tall and wearing a white cloak.

So of course the couple felt that there was nothing strange about Qin Xia, except that... he came to the wilderness wearing a cloak, which made them feel that he was a little silly.

"My daughter." The old man hung the bow and arrow on the wall, took off his coat, and introduced casually, "and my son-in-law. I just had a grandson, he is only two months old."

Qin Xia nodded to the couple, and they smiled and nodded in response.

Qin Xia noticed that the baby in the woman's arms was a psychic.

Talent is currently unknown.

Anyway, this baby changed the temperature of the entire room. Psychics who can awaken their psychic talents at a very young age are often extremely powerful, but the baby's psychic power did not get out of control. Instead, it was able to steadily increase the temperature of the room.

genius.

Qin Xia thought, it would be great if this baby could be trained as a White Knight think tank, but his parents would definitely not agree.

"Don't just stand there like an idiot. Prepare a meal for this traveler, and then get out and skin the beast outside." The old man kicked his son-in-law.

The son-in-law then took out some water and dried meat, and ran out to skin the beast.

The old man poured himself a cup of hot water, then walked to the table and spread a map on it.

"You are going to the ruins of the Sirius Knights." The old man leaned over and pointed at the crooked track he had drawn on the map. "You look a little anxious. I'll take you there when it's daybreak. If you don't have enough food, you can get some at my house. My doghouse is a bit far from the ruins."

Qin Xia looked at the old man as if he had known him for many years, and he was thinking about him and offering help.

This is not surprising, as Caliban people are all like this in the harsh living environment.

On the planet Caliban, what is more terrifying than ghosts and gods is never the human heart, but the giant beasts, carnivorous plants, and relatively small wild beasts.

"I don't know if you want to go somewhere else, take this with you." The old man rolled up the map and handed it to Qin Xia.

"Thank you." Qin Xia put away the map.

"No, if you were not a knight but a commoner, you wouldn't need to thank me." The old man looked at Qin Xia, "Perhaps you can't tell that I was once a knight. I eat the food grown by the commoner, wear the clothes woven by the commoner, and the commoner provides for me. This is what I owe to the commoner."

After saying this, the old man took off his coat, revealing the armor he was wearing.

The armor looked very dilapidated, but the power structure was still there, and some claw marks could be seen in the strongest parts, allowing anyone who saw the armor today to tell that it had faced the behemoth together with its owner.

"Sovall the Oathbreaker." Kang, who was invisible to others, said, "Look at his badge. It has his name and... the emblem of the Sirius Knights. No wonder he knows where the ruins of the Knights are."

"Oath-breaking Knight? How so?" Qin Xia responded with psychic power, looking at the old man named Soval and thought he was pretty good.

"At the beginning, the Sirius Knights refused to respond to Ryan's call to exterminate the Caliban beast, and the Knights had a conflict with Ryan." Kang replied, "All surviving members of the Sirius Knights are considered to be oath-breaking knights."

"Because the people of Caliban believed that they had violated the oath they took when they became knights, and refused to stand up when they should have done so to save the people who supported them and to eliminate the monster once and for all."

"So it's the Oathbreaker Knight."

Qin Xia walked to the wall and looked at Soval's bow and arrow.

This bow and arrow is actually just a weapon in the shape of a bow and arrow. The bow and arrow has a device for accelerating matter. It is not surprising that the arrows fired by this thing can penetrate tanks.

"Speaking of which, isn't the Knights' ruins a place that needs to be kept secret?" Qin Xia asked while observing the bow and arrow, "Is he so willing to take me there?"

"He thinks you're from Caliban." Kang shrugged. "What's wrong with taking my parents to the ruins of the Knights to see the scenery?"

After looking at the bow and arrow, Qin Xia walked towards Soval's daughter and fiddled with the baby's face.

"This grandson looks like me." Thorval picked up a wooden sword and put it in his grandson's hand. "He will definitely be an excellent knight in the future."

"An excellent knight..." Qin Xia nodded slowly, "Indeed."
