The Brevis Icefield Bison are the most ferocious wild animals on the Ice Plains.

They are usually docile in temperament, but once provoked, they become incomparably rampaging.

A herd of thousands of bison can be said to be the most powerful native force on Brevis.

Even facing a tank armored company, they would not fear.

This is far more terrifying than the ten-thousand-strong Green Skin cavalry from just now.

"Damn it!" Dominic's face changed too. "Quick! Hide behind the Poison Blade Tanks!"

Everyone immediately hid behind the Poison Blade Tanks.

A few seconds later, the herd passed in front of the Poison Blade Tanks.

It was simply a moving steel wall.

Giant bovine hooves stomped on the ground, emitting a deafening roaring sound.

Icy wind and snow mixed with mud and gravel, striking everyone's Power Armor with crackling sounds.

The Poison Blade Tank weighed over seven hundred tons, yet at this moment it was shaken into a slight sway by the passing herd.

"What do we do? Adult!" the Escort Captain shouted loudly.

"If we force a charge now, these damn bison will trample us into meat patties!"

"Don't panic!" Dominic said calmly.

"The bison have no formation, and no wisdom."

"As long as we stay calm, follow the herd's movement direction, and weave through flexibly, we will definitely pass through!"

He jumped onto the top of the Poison Blade Tank, observing the herd's movements.

"Everyone follow me, pay attention to dodging flexibly!"

Dominic jumped off the tank first, riding a Six-Legged Exotic Beast and charging toward a gap in the herd.

The escorts and Ralph followed closely behind.

They were like a group of agile cowboys, shuttling between the colossi.

Dodging the wildly crashing bison, relying on superb horsemanship to evade fatal trampling again and again.

One bison suddenly charged at an escort; Ralph's eyes were quick and hands fast, the Power Sword in his hand swung, severing one of the bison's horns.

The bison, in pain, wailed and turned to the other side.

This crossing lasted a full forty minutes.

When the last person rushed out of the herd, everyone was so exhausted they collapsed sitting on the snow, panting heavily.

Although no one was injured, everyone's Power Armor was covered in scratches and dents.

"Damn..." Dominic panted, cursing.

"Today is truly evil! First Green Skins, then bison!"

Ralph stood to the side, gray eyes gazing toward the distant wind and snow.

She could sense that the faint, intermittent sense of being watched had disappeared.

This is absolutely not a coincidence.

Green Skins and bison blocking them simultaneously — this is absolutely not a coincidence.

The purpose is to delay their time.

Who?

In Ralph's mind, Keli Feng's face flashed.

Is it him?

Why would he do this?

Could it be... that Double Peak Mountain truly hides some unspeakable secret?

Is the Bond between Keli Feng and the Frost Dragon real?

When Dominic's Hunting Squad finally arrived at Double Peak Mountain, it was already deep night.

The sky-full of heavy snow finally quieted down somewhat.

Bright moonlight sprinkled on the two towering peaks, reflecting a cold radiance.

Double Peak Mountain looked no different from other snow peaks.

Steep rock walls, thick accumulated snow, terrifyingly silent.

"This is Double Peak Mountain?" Dominic frowned, looking around.

"It doesn't look special at all. Would a Frost Dragon inhabit a place like this?"

"Adult, there's a cave over there!" an escort pointed at a huge cave opening at the mountain foot and shouted.

Everyone walked toward that cave opening.

The cave opening was very large, about ten meters high and about fifteen meters wide.

Inside it was pitch black, bottomless.

A strand of cold Cold Qi surged out from the cave opening, carrying a trace of a faint, strange fishy smell.

Ralph's face instantly became grave.

Although she hadn't noticed any residual psychic energy, her intuition told her that something extraordinary had definitely stayed inside.

【Something stayed inside.】Ralph said in sign language.

"Something?" Dominic's eyes lit up. "Could it be the Frost Dragon?"

【However, it seems only an empty nest remains now.】Ralph didn't sense any living existence.

"That would leave traces too, let's go!" Dominic drew his Power Axe and was about to walk inside.

"Adult, be careful!" The escort Captain hurriedly blocked him.

"It's too dangerous inside, let's send two people in to scout the way first!"

"No need." Dominic waved his hand.

"Ralph already said there's nothing inside anymore, what danger could there be?"

"But......"

"No buts." Dominic interrupted him. "I trust Lady Ralph's judgment."

After speaking, he had the escort Captain bring a group to wait guard outside the cave entrance.

He himself, together with Ralph, led the remaining few escorts into the mountain cave.

The inside of the mountain cave was even larger than imagined.

The cave walls were covered in thick layers of ice, reflecting crystalline radiance under the Flashlight's light.

The deeper they went, the richer that strange fishy smell became.

After walking for about half an hour, they reached the End of the mountain cave, everything was very normal.

It looked no different from mountain caves in other places.

"There's nothing at all." Dominic said disappointedly. "Could the Frost Dragon's legend be false?"

Ralph didn't speak, but her tightly locked eyebrows showed she was also puzzled.

Strong intuition told her that something had definitely existed here, but currently nothing had been discovered.

The few people searched a few more times, but still discovered nothing.

This cave, aside from that strange fishy smell, was completely normal.

Just as Dominic was disappointedly preparing to leave, an escort discovered a place.

It was a rock wall in a Corner, looking utterly unremarkable.

But after he knocked on it with his hand, he discovered the Texture was different from other places.

"This isn't right, Adult, this rock wall is much thinner than other places."

Dominic also walked over and knocked on the rock wall with his fist.

"Thump thump thump."

Indeed, a hollow sound came through.

"It's empty behind!" Dominic's eyes lit up. "The Secret seems to be behind it!"

Everyone was wondering if danger might be hidden inside, but Dominic looked at Ralph's hesitant expression.

He immediately confirmed that something was indeed hidden behind it.

He took out a Fragmentation Grenade from his Waist, pulled the safety pin, and Directly threw it out.

"Fall back!"

The few people quickly fell back.

"Boom—!"

With a huge sound, the grenade exploded, Gravel and Ice Blocks flying and splashing everywhere.

The Smoke Dust dispersed, and a huge hole appeared on the rock wall.

An even richer fishy smell surged out from inside the hole.

Behind the hole was an incomparably huge underground cave.

Dominic and Ralph looked at each other, nodded, and decided to go down.

They gripped their Weapons tightly and carefully walked inside.
