The sky is high and vast, and one can see thousands of miles away.

Since entering the northern border, the terrain has almost transformed into a plain with towering snow-capped peaks that can be seen at a glance.

The rolling hills and rising peaks that can be seen everywhere in the south cannot be seen here at all.

After leaving the town of Willens and heading north, the five of them had been walking on the vast snow-covered wilderness for most of the day.

The cold wind blew from the vast plains, making the five people's long robes whistle.

Except for their eyes, the five people were all wrapped up tightly.

Despite this, sitting on the back of a tall horse, the cold wind still whizzed into my clothes.

In this world, traveling for a long time, especially an ultra-long distance, is definitely a painful thing.

Fortunately, the five of them are not ordinary people and their bodies can bear it.

For ordinary people with average health, traveling long distances in winter is definitely very dangerous. If you have a headache or brain fever, there is no way to cure it. There are too many cases of death on long journeys.

"I said, Geralt, if the road conditions continue to be like this, let's change carriages in the next town!"

Gordon pushed hard with his feet, and the horse under him immediately accelerated and trotted forward, catching up with Geralt in front of him and shouting loudly.

"Yes, we are in the north now, and the road conditions are much better than in the south. If we change to a carriage, we don't have to blow the cold wind, and we can still play Gwent in the carriage!"

After hearing Gordon's words, Xina, who followed Gordon, immediately opened her eyes and said loudly.

"The road conditions are almost the same, but the speed of the carriage will definitely be much slower than that of our horses."

Geralt turned to look at the people behind him and said.

"How much slower will it be? Can it be reached within a month?"

After hearing what the three of them said, Yevni and Tesili, who were at the end of the team, also caught up, and Yevni asked.

Speaking of which, sorceresses have always been pampered, and sometimes the more powerful they are, the more so.

There is really no other way to travel like this in a stormy and snowy day.

If you can replace your horse riding with a carriage, no one would be willing to do it as long as you have enough time.

"If we can fit in our five-person carriage... that's about right!"

Geralt thought for a moment and then spoke.

"Then go to the next town and change first. If you don't have enough time, we can just change back later."

Gordon said and looked at Yevni.

"Well, this method is feasible."

"That's it, we'll switch to a carriage in the next town!"

Looking at Gordon's eyes as he looked over, Yevni nodded.

"call..."

"By the way...such a simple question, why didn't we think of it when we were in Willens Town before?"

"Otherwise, we would be sitting in the warm carriage now, playing cards and chatting, and we would be able to reach the city of Santa Fidels."

Xina spoke quickly, with hot breath coming out of her mouth.

"It's just that our heads haven't turned around yet."

"If Gordon doesn't mention this now, someone among us will definitely think that maybe that person is you."

Tesili suddenly smiled.

"That's true!"

Xina nodded, she has always been very smart.

"I don't think so."

"I think everyone else here can think of it, but Xina certainly can't think of it!"

Gordon turned around and spoke loudly.

"Why?"

Xina said unhappily that she had a hunch that Gordon had nothing good to say.

Geralt, Evonne and the other three were all attracted by Gordon's words.

"Because you are stupid Sheena!"

"Ha ha ha ha..."

Gordon laughed, clamped his legs on the horse's back, and immediately sped out.

"Damn Gordon!"

"You are the stupid one, your whole family is stupid!"

Xina was furious, waving the riding crop in her hand and chasing Gordon.

After the two people made such a fuss, the atmosphere in the entire team became cheerful.

The five-person team was advancing rapidly on the snowy wilderness.

Three days later.

In winter in the northern continent, there is almost always only one color on the earth, and that is the white snow.

When the five of them left Willens, the sky was still cold and sunny.

But less than half a day later, snowflakes began to fall in the sky. The snow lasted for three days without stopping.

Fortunately, the snow was not heavy and the snow on the ground was not deep, otherwise the speed of the few people would have to drop again.

When the nearest town is only half a day away.

Gordon and his party are in trouble.

When passing by a forest, a group of people rushed out.

"Bang bang bang bang bang..."

"stop!"

"Everyone stop it!"

"Bang bang bang bang bang..."

The chaotic sound of horse hooves accompanied by loud shouts came from the large team of twenty or thirty people in front.

"Don't panic!"

Geralt immediately tightened his grip on the reins, calmed his horse and spoke loudly.

Gordon rode forward quickly, looked at the huge team rushing forward, and said in a deep voice: "Is this... a robbery?"

"That should be the case. Every winter, when the roads are blocked by heavy snow and the town guards are inconvenient and unwilling to leave the city, there are always some guys who collude with each other to block roads and rob them outside the city."

"These guys are called winter thieves, which are winter robbers."

"Most of these people are composed of mercenaries and gangsters who are not very good at it. They wait on the only way to the town. Whether it is a caravan or an individual, as long as they pass by on the road, they will rob everything.

"

"These guys do all kinds of evil. In order to fear that the victim will report it to the city hall and to avoid being wanted, many of them will brutally kill the person they were robbed without leaving a single person alive!"

"This is also the reason why caravans are rare on the road in winter."

"The large caravan has guards, so it can bargain with these bandits without even fearing them."

"Small caravans can't do it. Unless they join the big caravan or gather more small caravans and hire guards, they won't dare to go on the road at all."

"Evil spirits or monsters that have mutated corpses appear in some places in the wilderness. Many of them are caused by these guys."

"In short, these winter thieves are all guilty of heinous crimes. Their hands are stained with blood. They all deserve to die!"

Geralt introduced the large team rushing forward in a deep voice.

Behind them, Xina, Yevnetsili and three others had already followed.

The five people gathered together on horseback and quietly watched the bandits rushing up.

"Haha, look what we caught!"

"Two mercenaries... no, they are demon hunters, they are actually demon hunters..."

After the leader of the winter thieves finished speaking, the winter thieves beside him immediately started talking.

"I was able to actually catch a witcher. This is the first time I've encountered a living witcher in the wild after so long..."

"I heard that demon hunters are very powerful..."

"Those guys specialize in dealing with monsters, how can they not be strong..."

"Then what should we do? We can't let them go..."

The winter thieves were talking a lot, and the leader of the winter thieves got angry: "Shut up!"

"What's the noise? What about the demon hunters? There are twenty-five of us here!"

"One person can shoot them into hedgehogs with one arrow, so what are you afraid of!"

"If you see those three women, kill those two demon hunters. This time everyone will have a share!"

The leader of the winter thieves shouted loudly, and the surrounding winter thieves immediately started screaming strangely.

The leader of the winter thieves raised his hand, and the strange screams immediately stopped.

The leader of the winter thieves continued: "Witcher, let's negotiate a condition."

"I can let you two go, but those three women must stay!"

"How about it?"

"Hehehehehe..."

After the leader of the winter thieves finished speaking, the winter thieves immediately started laughing strangely.
