Chapter 2289
The sky of the snowfield darkened. When the sky turned gray and bright again, it meant that the second day of the Top Ten Foreign Qiangzhe Contest had begun.
The time limit for the Top Ten Foreign Qiangzhe Contest was five days. Now it hadn't even been one day, and three participants had been eliminated.
Pale green aurora appeared in the sky, making the snowfield look beautiful.
Now, excluding Su Xiao himself, only six participants remained, namely: Twin Stars, Monde, Nameless Saint, Shuge, Quanyu, and Afni.
Although it was night, Su Xiao didn't camp to rest, but was walking toward the north. The blizzard behind was catching up. For some reason, the shrinking speed of the blizzard was getting faster and faster.
Walking on the snow, Su Xiao's feet made a crunching, crunching sound. He puffed out white mist. The temperature at night on the snowfield was even lower, around minus 50 degrees, freezing water into ice.
After solving the Night Witch, he didn't encounter other participants again. Not to mention that the range of the snowfield was still very large, just the current situation made the possibility of him encountering other participants greatly reduced.
According to Su Xiao's speculation, Afni of the Holy Light Paradise wasn't eliminated. There was a 40% probability that she used some kind of ability or prop to escape from the Nameless Saint, and a 60% probability that she had already joined forces with the Nameless Saint.
Therefore, Su Xiao assumed the Nameless Saint and Afni were a team.
Not only the Nameless Saint and Afni, but according to a video image Su Xiao obtained earlier, he learned that Shuge of the Arcane Eternal Star had already joined forces with Quanyu of the Feather Tribe. This was the Void team.
Monde was likely still searching for other participants everywhere, and the Twin Stars' situation should be similar.
Among these people, the most troublesome combination was undoubtedly Shuge and Quanyu. They were difficult to deal with individually, and after joining forces, whoever they encountered would be unlucky. At least Su Xiao didn't want to encounter the Void team.
The sound of wind reached Su Xiao's ears. He stopped and looked back. Under the illumination of the aurora, the blizzard behind was like a white-green wall, pushing forward at a not-slow speed.
"Woof."
Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang barked and took out a snow sled from the team storage space, meaning: "Master, save physical strength."
Su Xiao sat on the snow sled. In the team, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang had the most abundant physical strength. It basically didn't need to fight and was responsible for tracking or stealing 【Champion's Medals】.
With Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang pulling the sled, the travel speed was faster, gradually pulling away from the blizzard behind.
Unknowingly, the sky began to brighten. The second day of the Top Ten Foreign Qiangzhe Contest had arrived. Unlike the first day of constant fighting, the second day was very peaceful.
The locations of other participants were temporarily unknown. The Ice Elf who wanted to "save her home" had also escaped the maximum range of the tracker.
This Ice Elf had returned to the ice cave before, plucked up the courage, and destroyed the signal transmitter in the ice cave. She originally wanted to risk her life to defend her home and was prepared to die, but after destroying those signal transmitters, she found that nothing happened, which gave the Ice Elf girl a strong sense of pride. At this time, she didn't know where she had run.
The only change on the second day of the Top Ten Foreign Qiangzhe Contest was that the blizzard behind shrank faster. Until the night of the second day, the blizzard suddenly stopped pushing.
Su Xiao stood in front of the blizzard. There seemed to be an invisible barrier in front of him, standing directly to the sky, blocking the blizzard.
Su Xiao reached into the invisible barrier. Just for a moment, he felt the cold piercing his bones. The temperature in the blizzard dropped sharply. Even with Su Xiao's soul strength, he couldn't stay inside for too long, at most about 10-15 seconds. The freezing of the soul would lead to his inability to move, and finally, he would die in the blizzard area.
If Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang or Amu were shrouded in the blizzard area now, their souls would be frozen instantly.
This was only the night of the second day, and the blizzard area was so terrifying. If it were the last two days, it might only take an instant for the blizzard to freeze any participant's soul.
Discovering this, Su Xiao continued to rush on the road overnight. The most important thing now was to stay away from the blizzard area and arrive at the Peak Mountains as soon as possible.
Top Ten Foreign Qiangzhe Contest, third day, morning.
The unchanging snow scene changed. A large area of white protrusions appeared in front. After arriving nearby, Su Xiao discovered that this was a forest covered in silver, the trees wrapped in frost, and icicles hanging down.
【Note (Reincarnation Paradise): You have arrived at the Frost Forest.】
This was a note from the Reincarnation Paradise, not an announcement from the Void Tree. Seeing this note, Su Xiao let Baja scout from high altitude to see if there was a way to bypass the Frost Forest.
An hour later, Baja returned. It flew very far along the Frost Forest. The result was that it was unlikely to bypass the Frost Forest before the blizzard behind struck.
Su Xiao walked at the very front of the team, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang and Benny in the middle, Amu and Baja bringing up the rear.
As they went deep into the Frost Forest, the surrounding wind disappeared. It was quiet, cold, and had a hint of weirdness.
After traveling five kilometers in the Frost Forest, Su Xiao saw two strings of footprints on the snow. The owner of the footprints was very hurried and didn't even have time to deal with this obvious trail.
Su Xiao thought for a moment and began to track these two strings of footprints. Less than an hour later, two figures appeared in front.
Su Xiao stopped and looked at the dense footprints on the snow in front.
The Twin Stars brothers were standing more than fifty meters in front. At this time, the two brothers also saw Su Xiao. They simultaneously put their index fingers in front of their mouths, making a gesture of silence. What was strange was that the two brothers were both shirtless.
The younger brother of the Twin Stars had blood on his face, and his left arm was cut by a sharp weapon. A spider-web-like net layer covered the wound, letting the wound stop bleeding.
"There is something, nearby. This place, is not suitable, for fighting. Cooperate, retreat first."
The elder brother of the Twin Stars gestured with hand language, meaning to let Su Xiao retreat as soon as possible.
Ask, in this situation, would the Twin Stars be so kind? One had to know that the Twin Stars came from the Death Paradise. Saying these two brothers didn't blink when killing was a compliment to them. These two teenagers didn't even spit out bones when eating people.
Su Xiao took out a mechanical bee. He didn't let the mechanical bee fly, but threw the mechanical bee toward the Twin Stars.
"Damn!"
The Twin Stars made the same mouth shape and turned to retreat.
The mechanical bee wasn't activated but fell into the snow.
Crunch~
The younger brother of the Twin Stars stepped on the snow, making a very subtle sound. It was this subtle sound that caused a "Frost Mark" to appear on his back.
Five humanoid creatures crawled out from the snow. Their skin was pale, wearing gray ice armor, with a curved arm blade embedded in their forearms, and their eyes were black-blue.
The Apostle Eye floated beside Su Xiao. He had to know what this creature was. The combat power of this thing was very terrifying.
【Comparing intelligence attributes of both sides... Due to the interference of the Frost Forest, only 7% of the enemy's data was obtained.】
Name: Frost Guard
Health Points: 100%
Alien Source: 95000/95000 points
Strength:??? (True Attribute)
Agility:??? (True Attribute)
Stamina:??? (True Attribute)
Intelligence:??? (True Attribute)
Charisma: 1 (This is a high-risk neutral unit)
Skill 1, Soul Guard of the Vow (Passive, lv. 72):???
Skill 2,???
Skill 3,???
Skill 11,???
Conservatively estimated, the combat power of the Frost Guard was at the same level as Axe Brother. Unlike Axe Brother, as long as one didn't actively provoke the Frost Guard, they weren't dangerous. Clearly, the Twin Stars had provoked them.
