After the Blizzard

Two weeks later, the heavy snow almost turned the ground into a living hell.

The bitter cold wind mixed with ice and snow raged in the mountains, blowing on the face like a knife. Even awakened ones like Linsey and Hong must stop and rest their posture from time to time.

It's a cold world with almost no life in sight.

However, after this hellish situation lasted for three days.

The snow stopped without warning.

The sun's rays broke through the thick dark clouds, and the temperature gradually warmed up.

Hong was a little unbelievable, or inexplicable:

"Linsey, is the snow going to stop?"

"It has stopped." Linsey corrected the girl, and then speculated, "Dragon Beast's original intention should be to prevent you from reaching Black Mountain at the critical moment, not to kill us here."

Hong also reacted:

"Since it can't be stopped, it can only be allowed to go?"

Linsey nodded and affirmed. "And I think that even a strong Seventh Stage who plundered World Source Material cannot maintain this kind of thing endlessly."

After making the conclusion, Linsey changed the topic. "But I think Dragon Beast will definitely not succumb to reality. The cessation of the wind and snow also means that there are other things ahead that hinder our progress."

Hong shrugged indifferently:

"Then give it a try."

Leaving the snow-covered weather, Linsey and Hong stepped up their journey.

Another sunset a week later.

There were no traces left by the wind and snow around, and Linsey and Hong began to prepare the camp to rest as usual.

this journey.

They intercepted several more waves of Revivalist, and then used Hong's body to extract a lot of information.

This time they were prepared and things went more smoothly.

The guy named Dark Abyss.

Instruct the Revivalists that if they find Hong, they will take her below Black Mountain and enter a Secret Passage under the glacier.

Dark Abyss also doesn't want Dragon Beast to meet Hong.

This tunnel points directly below Black Mountain. The position is for Hong to secretly approach and use the means prepared in advance to counterattack Dragon Beast.

"Tweet-"

At dusk.

The songs of birds echoed in the bushes nearby.

Linsey turned around and saw several nightingales.

These birds are solitary creatures and only travel together when they migrate. The previous snowstorm changed the temperature changes in Thousand Mountains Stone Forest, so they fled here to continue to survive.

"Does this count as singing to me?"

Linsey Listen to the song of the nightingale and organize the camp in front of the campfire.

At this time, the sky was no longer forced by the galloping cold wind, but he still reclaimed Farmland on the spot and started a new batch of material reserves.

Not long after, Hong also came back.

After the temperature returned to normal, the presence of wild beasts and Devil Beast around him returned to normal.

The girl easily caught the prey and came back with an antelope. "Linsey, since we can hunt again, why do we need to cultivate food so frequently?"

Linsey replied immediately:

"I don't want the same dilemma to happen again."

"Be more prepared now. If there is Dragon Beast or something else next time, causing a predicament that prevents us from growing food, these reserves will come in handy."

Hong shrugged, somewhat disapprovingly. "Well, anyway, you are much more careful than me."

Seeing Linsey cultivating Farmland, Hong did not continue to bother her and started skinning and processing the antelope's meat.

Hong's technique is a bit rusty, but he can handle such a job.

But when it comes to cooking, she will definitely leave it to Linsey to prepare the ingredients. After all, the temptation of perfect food is there.

Wait until the dead antelope is roughly decomposed.

Hongcai asked Linsey on the other side:

"Linsey, we have killed more than ten Revivalist, and we have almost obtained the information."

"According to what they said, Dark Abyss has full confidence in dealing with Dragon Beast, even if the opponent has advanced to Eighth Stage. This means that his preparation must be very effective, and it can target Dragon Beast so that it cannot resist."

Linsey nodded:

"Yes, and this is prepared for you. You must be closely related to it."

Hong tried to ask:

"Then let me disguise my identity, infiltrate their influence, and then use the results of all this?"

Linsey's movement of digging on the ground paused, and his tone became serious:

"This is very dangerous for you."

"Look what you said." Hong smiled and asked, "Isn't our act of killing Dragon Beast dangerous?"

Linsey still wanted to persuade, but Hong said:

"Linsey, you explained to me the meaning of risk-taking risks to engage in an activity."

The girl's eyes were extremely firm, and there was no trace of fear in her pupils:

"Since you have chosen this, you should accept the challenge!"

"Are you right?"

"..."

The sun rises and sets, and the years fly by.

Relying on the dual protection of maps and radar, Linsey and Hong shuttled through Thousand Mountains Stone Forest, almost completely hiding their traces.

They bumped into other Revivalists on the road.

But after obtaining enough intelligence, the two had no intention of continuing to expose their whereabouts. So he avoided these enemies and continued on his way in silence.

This long and hidden journey took longer than imagined.

It even needs to be measured in years!

Although the temperature of Black Mountain World is almost not affected by seasonal changes.

But they left Thousand Mountains Stone Forest a few months later and spent an entire cycle from spring to winter before finally seeing their destination in the distance.

——Black Mountain.

A cold wind blows from the east.

The surrounding glaciers seemed to be in a deep sleep, and a dark solitary peak stood among them, like an island protruding from the undercurrent of the deep sea.

The rising sun casts an orange halo on the snow below Black Mountain.

The black figure breaking through the clouds at a high place is extremely deep, as if an old man who has been sleeping for countless years is overlooking the cold world around him.

"It's so beautiful..."

Linsey sighed subconsciously.

Hong beside him nodded in agreement, but his tone was very dangerous:

"Yes, it's quite beautiful."

"It would be even better if Dragon Beast could be removed from this picture!"

Linsey glanced sideways. "Say it as if you can see Dragon Beast."

Hong chuckled, "At least I feel it in my heart."

Both of them have the ability to perceive Essence.

But at such a long distance, it is impossible to perceive Dragon Beast above Black Mountain.

The world is big enough to accommodate everything.

At this moment, Hong suddenly pointed to the ground in front of him:

"Linsey, look over there!"

Linsey Looked in the direction.

The water flow from the melted glaciers converges into a wide river in the surrounding area. It blocks directly in front of the entire glacier area, and its surging momentum seems to be able to block all travelers who want to reach the other side.

Hong continued to ask, "Didn't you show me those notes before?"

"The glaciers around Black Mountain shouldn't have gathered such a large river, right?"

"You remember correctly." Linsey nodded first, then shook his head, "This river at least appeared after Expedition Team passed by, within this hundred years!"

Hong shook his head disdainfully. "In this year, I thought it would come up with some winning way to stop me, but didn't expect this?"

The girl turned to look at Linsey:

"Linsey, do you think there will be anything weird in the water? We'll be done with it after we jump in!"

"Haha——"

Linsey sneered and took out Meteorite Pickaxe directly from his bag, "Only a fool would go into this river if he knew there was a problem."

"Hong, take out your guy and let's dig a tunnel there!"
