"… …"

"It's dangerous in there." Liang Yue's voice resounded in the snowstorm.

"We know." Matt's voice answered.

"You don't have to go." Liang Yue continued, "You should go and protect the student's safety."

"I'm protecting them too." Matt answered again.

After separating from the freshmen, Liang Yue took out two other cloaks and handed them over to the two. Four snow-white figures merged with the wind and snow, advancing forward.

"Xiyue, did you hear something?"

Liang Yue's eyes slightly narrowed. She was too familiar with this expression. It seemed like her target had arrived. Her white hand quietly touched the hilt of her sword.

Having known him for so long and spent so much time together, Xiyue could be said to be one of the people most familiar with Liang Yue. In a sense, they could be said to be from the same sect, and the tacit understanding between the two was indescribable.

Taking a step forward, two gusts of wind pierced through the snow.

Their swords were like a gentle breeze, brushing against each other's cheeks and disappearing into the wind and snow behind them.

"Puff …"

Two extremely soft sounds rang out. As Swordsmen, they had their own reactions to their swords. Although the sounds were very soft, the touch of the tip of their swords indicated that they were not just cutting small objects.

The object that was hit had a human body size, the two quickly determined.

On their first day in the forest, Liang Yue heard an extremely faint sound. At the time, she thought that it was just an illusion, but today, she heard the same sound.

Matt and Ethan swallowed their saliva. Just now, the two of them had launched a sword attack in a split-second, and they didn't even have time to react. If they were facing each other with their swords at that time, they probably would have already fallen under their swords. No wonder the teacher at Hedonmar Academy dared to ask them to lead the team.

"Let's go take a look."

The blue corpse laid on the ground with traces of blood seeping out from its neck. It was then frozen and squatted down to carefully examine the corpse of the Frost Goblin. "It's a Frost Goblin, the One Flag type."

Liang Yue felt a little strange in his heart. He didn't expect that there would only be two First Banner Ice Goblins.

It wasn't that he didn't feel that Yiqi was dangerous, but he felt that the Frost Goblin didn't have the ability to make that kind of sound. That sound gave him a bad feeling.

Liang Yue shook his head. "That's not it."

"This Frost Goblin is so strange!" Matt squatted beside the corpse of the Frost Goblin. This Frost Goblin looked a little different from ordinary people, and half of its originally pure blue skin had turned green, while the skin on its face that looked as if it had been burned had disappeared, leaving only its sinister flesh sticking to the bone on its head. For some reason, Matt and the others who had seen the bloody scene felt a little scared, and they muttered, "This monster seems to have been eroded by ice."

Liang Yue had a bad premonition. The teachers of these academies were basically only able to deal with the Three Flags Ice Goblin, but he could feel that there was probably a Territory Lord level monster, or even more than one, deep within the forest.

Liang Yue glanced at them and said, "You can go back and protect the safety of the students. The following matter will be left to the sole responsibility of the Hetton Mal Academy."

Matt was a little worried. "You guys be careful."

Although they were worried about Liang Yue and the others, they didn't stop them, because they weren't people of the same level, and their strength were on completely different levels. In the end, they were unable to help.

This was the most recent change in the situation. Snow had covered the eastern part of the Forest of Grains, turning the world snow-white. Even the monsters in the forest had mutated, so they had to go back and inform the army.

"Let's go back and meet up with the students. Escort them back first. I'm afraid that the Frost Goblin will appear." Eden said, looking at Matt.

Matt nodded without any hesitation. "Let's go!"

The two of them were extremely uneasy. The forest was too dangerous right now.

Liang Yue and Xi Yue glanced at each other before continuing their journey into the depths of the forest.

At the same time, the specially recruited students of Hertonmart Academy were also advancing towards the depths of the forest, while at the periphery, the teachers were leading the students and retreating.

The sword in Matt's hand glowed with a white light. Yellow waves shot out from the sword and struck the Frost Goblin that was not far away.

"Let's go, accelerate our retreat!"

Eden's face was pale. He stood behind Matt and said, "Something is wrong."

Matt stared at the snow for a long time. He smiled bitterly and said, "This is not good …"

Matt and Eden had already reunited with the new students, and their progress towards their destination was severely hindered.

A large number of Green Goblins and Frost Goblins appeared on their path of return. The Green Goblins were still able to deal with them, but up until now, there had already been five Frost Goblins from Second Flag. It was truly troublesome.

Over fifty people had gathered here, and these were the freshmen of Hetton Mar Academy. They had gathered together, and were protecting the students whose physical strength was somewhat insufficient.

There was still some distance to the exit point, Gavin took out an apparatus from his bosom. It was a distress launcher, and as the red light shone in the snow-white sky, he looked at Matt and Eden and nodded.

Without hesitation, Matt and Eden took out a bottle of potion and opened the lid. It was filled with colorful liquid.

He poured the potion into his pocket. This was a potion produced by the Hertalus Alchemy Association, Battle Roar Potion. It could increase one's physical strength to a certain point in a certain period of time, greatly increasing one's combat prowess.

Matt and Eden regained their composure. As they walked out of the snow, their hearts sank.

They saw the four flags standing upright behind the figure, the four banners containing the Frost Goblin. Another way of putting it was that the four banners and above could be called a goblin elder.

The line up of green goblins surrounded them all densely, just like the number of normal goblins from last year. However, these goblins were all green goblins, and there were also a few Icy Goblins mixed in the middle.

There were many monsters surrounding them. The only good thing was, there was only one goblin in the four banners.

Matt and Eden's primary goal was the four-flag goblin elder. If they could deal with the monster, these students could wait until the other teams gathered here.

The snow grew heavier and heavier, and the wind blew it into a mess. Blizzard began to fall on this place where snow never snowed.
