After retreating, they came after them

Chapter 257 A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step

end of the month.

People got up early and stood on the street looking at the snow mountain team that was about to go far.

For so many years, people have never been so close to the snow-capped mountains on such a day.

Standing on the ground, people looked at the high snow-capped mountains and imagined the severe cold in the sky, feeling a sense of admiration spontaneously.

The object of their admiration is none other than the Snow Mountain team headed by Simon.

Among the onlookers, there were many heads of the big adventure group who personally witnessed the first day of the snow mountain team's departure ceremony.

Simon originally didn't want to climb the mountain in such a grand manner, but the popularity of the Snow Mountain Team spread, and people enthusiastically pursued it. Unknowingly, this event became a major event for the whole town to carnival.

Fortunately, because the reputation and ambition of the Snow Mountain team spread throughout all the towns, many teams changed their purpose and turned into mountain climbing teams.

Simon turned his head and looked around, and found some unfamiliar teams, wearing thick winter clothes, holding climbing picks, crowbars, skateboards and other things on their backs.

These things are not bad at this stage, whether they are strong or not is another matter, the important thing is that they were inspired by the snow mountain team to climb mountains.

"I hope you will not be afraid of the high mountains and the bitter cold. This is the legacy left by the previous generation of mountaineering teams, and it is up to you to keep it now." Simon said.

In the team in front of us, there are only two three-star employees, and the rest are two-star trainees.

They must not be able to climb up completely, just follow up to experience the wind and snow, and they will come down when they are almost unbearable.

Therefore, passing on the badge of mountaineering to them is in line with the meaning of inheritance contained in this badge.

Pass down the spirit of mountaineering from generation to generation.

There is no blood relationship, as long as the spirit resonates, they are the same kind of people.

Simon presented the mountaineering team badge on the spot, which was noticed by everyone.

Amidst bursts of exclamations, the team leader with ponytails looked excited and took the badge.

"Captain Simon, we all admire you very much. I also heard the story of mountaineering from Simon, and I became addicted as soon as I heard it. This badge...we will protect it until it is handed over to the next generation of mountaineering teams!"

The team leader in winter clothes looked excited. Seeing Simon at such a close distance, she was so excited that she almost fainted.

Simon nodded and stopped provoking them. He turned around and called his teammates, and walked towards the snow mountain step by step.

Several small mountaineering teams behind them also came out one after another, following the footsteps of the snow mountain team, and walked up.

When they can't adapt, they will take the initiative.

As for the limit of the Xueshan team, no one knows where it is.

After all, this is the first four-star adventure group in the history of Haizhen.

As for the Four Heavenly Kings, they are not from the same adventure group, they just cooperate with each other, and the types are different.

……

Da da da.

When the snow boots step on the ground, you can hear the clear echo of stepping on the snow, as well as the cold air coming in from the air.

Simon had already walked hundreds of meters along the mountain. Looking back, the crowd below were still standing there watching, without leaving.

100 meters below, there is a line of young mountaineering teams, mainly with three-star and two-star ranks.

There are no wild monsters yet, but the temperature has dropped to minus [-] degrees, which is not a test for adventurers.

Stepping up a few dozen steps, Simon suddenly noticed that there was a guiding stone on the road, which suddenly appeared in the wind and snow and became very conspicuous.

This is a natural landmark of the snow mountain, which frequently appears in the diaries of major mountaineering teams, symbolizing that everyone has crossed the thousand-meter altitude and entered a new mountaineering height.

Going up, the temperature will drop step by step, until it drops to the point where even adventurers feel extremely cold.

Even warlocks of the soul system will feel cold in their hearts.

This time is the time to test human will.

Even if Xiaoqian in the team were to copy someone else's fireball technique, the fire would be extinguished by the wind and snow.

Simon walked to the signpost stone and called everyone to come forward and look at the engravings on it.

"In July 81 of the Snow Mountain Calendar, Demel's team passed by."

"In April 84 of the Snow Mountain Calendar, the Hu Lai Adventure Group left a message, hoping that this mountaineering will be successful"

"Snow Mountain Calendar..."

Behind them are rows of letters left by the teams, all of which were left by the adventure groups when they passed by.

This is consistent with the mountaineering stories circulated on the market. The team names on the signposts are basically the same. They are all mountaineering heroes in the past, but they are gone forever. I don’t know if they succeeded or were buried on the top of the snow mountain. .

These mountaineering teams did not only climb once, but returned to climb the mountain dozens of times in a few years, until they lost their news one time.

"Simon, do we want to leave a message?" The little shark took out the elf sword, eager to try, and can replace the team to leave a message on the signpost stone at any time.

"Well, leave a line of small words, don't write too big." Simon looked at the vacant area on the signpost stone, there are still many places to write.

This was a memorable moment. The climbing team behind quickly caught up and saw the whole process of the little shark raising his sword and writing.

People were quite excited, as if witnessing history happening before their eyes.

Those mountaineering teams in front are all three-stars, while the snow mountain team is all four-stars. They leave their words on it, and they may be the final successful climbers.

"Do you want to leave a message?" Little Shark looked back at the person.

"No, no, no, we are just beginners on the mountain climbing road, and we are not qualified to leave words."

The newcomers shook their heads one after another. They knew that their strength was too far behind the Snow Mountain team, so they would not go up and make a fool of themselves.

Simon didn't persuade them either. They were just climbing the mountain for the first time, and their spirits had not yet fully formed. Maybe they retreated after climbing a few times.

"Everyone, we are continuing on the road. If you are tired, you can rest where you are. Don't force yourself and do what you can," Simon said.

"Yes! Commander Simon!" Passers-by said in unison, watching Simon and the others with great excitement as they continued to move forward.

Ahead, the wind and snow suddenly increased, and a vast expanse of whiteness slowly submerged the figures of Simon and others.

The passers-by team sat and rested beside the signpost, and someone chatted intentionally or unintentionally: "Speaking of which, why don't they take a carriage, can't they levitate?"

Levitation near the ground is a natural ability of the best horses among horse mounts, and the price is very expensive.

Although the alchemy potion of the snow mountain team's adventure group has lowered the price of the first-class horse, it is still not a price that the rookie team can consider.

"You are a fake fan at first glance. Have you ever heard of 'A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step'? This is a famous saying left by senior Simon in an internal publication." The team leader holding a mountaineering badge rolled his eyes at the man. .

The passers-by also nodded one after another. They had carefully studied every issue of the journal, and Simon's famous quotes became their spiritual food, shining on their way forward.

The person who was stunned speechless blushed and opened his mouth several times but spoke.

He got up angrily, broke away from the team, walked up actively, stepped into the wind and snow, and threw his horse from the space backpack.

"Okay! I'll see if I run faster with a horse, or Simon walks faster!" He sullenly said.
