The male troll slowly put down his partner's body, his eyes were red due to excessive emotion, and he roared and charged forward.

Dick easily dodged the attack by turning slightly to the side.

Being in the snow is not as cramped as the entrance of a cave, and there is no need to look after the people behind you, so Dick can use its full strength.

Although the troll in front of him is powerful, Thick Skin and Flesh, his figure is not as agile as Dick.

Maybe it was because of several rounds of fighting with Dick at the entrance of the cave that Monster misjudged Dick's strength.

His contempt can also be easily solved by the children and partners at home Dick.

And thus paid a heavy price.

Dick keeps walking around it, and the target of each attack is its left chest.

I also have some plans in mind:

Since you are Thick Skin and Flesh, then I will keep attacking one part of you. If you don't believe me, you will not die if a drop of water penetrates a stone.

After ten rounds, the monster's left chest was covered in blood and flesh, and the internal skeleton could be faintly seen.

After fighting for a few more rounds, Dick, under the incredible gaze of Snow Troll, pierced its heart with a sword.

Pulling out the long sword and preparing to stab again, the troll struggled violently, waving its claws in all directions quickly and randomly.

Dick took a few steps back and stopped attacking. He knew that he could easily kill Monster as long as he waited for a while and the light returned.

After seeing the troll attack randomly a few times, he beat his chest regardless of his injuries and yelled at the sky.

The sound was so miserable that it resounded throughout the world!

What is it doing?

While he was wondering, Dick felt the earth shaking. Looking into the distance, he saw a white ocean rushing over the sky.

Then he suddenly realized that this troll deliberately caused an avalanche and wanted to die with him.

Pushing out his right palm, [Mind Shockwave] immediately hit the troll's exposed wound, and its fragile heart broke due to the attack.

Seeing this Monster's eyes were distracted and he fell backwards. Dick was too late to be happy and ran towards the entrance of the cave with big strides.

I saw several sled dogs sticking their heads out at the entrance of the cave, looking fearfully at it, and barking at the white ocean running behind me from time to time, knowing that they were reminding me to return to the cave quickly.

But a few meters away from the cave entrance, Dick suddenly stopped.

"No, we have to find something to block the entrance of the cave, otherwise heavy snow will fill the cave and we will all die."

Looking around, I found a huge round boulder about ten meters away from the entrance of the cave. Judging from its size, it could block the hole.

He immediately ran over, sheathed his long sword, and Dick roared and pushed the boulder towards the entrance of the cave.

"No, it's too slow. It's too late. What should I do?"

Just as he was thinking of a way, the voice of Ruiwen came from the entrance of the cave.

"Dick, keep moving, don't stop, I'm still here."

Ruiwen looked a little pale, half bent over weakly, and stretched out a hand.

Dick knew it was inconvenient to ask questions at this time, so he pushed the boulder again.

This time the boulder began to roll rapidly.

At the left and right ends of Dick, two big blue hands appeared, pushing the boulder together. He knew that this was a sorceress casting a spell to help.

When the entrance of the cave was close, Dick pushed the boulder inward, turned quickly, surpassed the boulder, and jumped into the entrance of the cave.

The increasingly deafening "rumbling" sounds of avalanches can be heard outside.

Dick I saw huge rocks blocking the entrance of the cave, but there were still some small gaps around it.

He immediately picked up the corpses of several sled dogs nearby, roughly folded them a few times and stuffed them into the gap.

Turning around, he saw the sorceress opposite her squatting on the ground, wiping the sweat from her forehead.

Anson stood aside with worry on his face.

Before I could ask any more questions, I heard a "boom" and the entire cave began to tremble, the light disappeared, and everything became pitch black.

After a while, a cluster of flames lit up inside the cave.

Dick raised his right index finger to maintain [Fire Signs] and looked around.

Anson had walked close to him, while the sorceress was leaning against the wall beside her, breathing heavily.

"Are you okay?"

"It's okay." The sorceress panted, "It's just that I feel a little cold."

"Anson, you support her and let's go inside. The bonfire just now was extinguished by the avalanche. I'll relight it. Is there enough wood?"

"It's enough. Fortunately, we are well prepared." Anson replied while supporting Ruiwen.

Several people returned to the cave, Dick rekindled the bonfire, while Ruiwen sat aside dejectedly.

Dick came to her side, squatted down, and touched his forehead, "It's very hot. You have a fever."

Ruiwen seemed to be unaccustomed to being touched like this by others. He opened Dick's hand and replied coldly, "It doesn't matter, it will be fine after a while."

"Then let's discuss it, should we continue to look for medicinal materials?" Dick looked at the two people.

"I still need some medicinal ingredients." Anson replied, "And I just saw you fighting with the snow monster from the entrance of the cave."

Dick knows that the snow monster Anson refers to is Snow Troll. The folk name for Monster is sometimes different from that of the witcher.

"So what?"

"Nearby where the snow monster appears, there must be the last medicine I needed, so we can search nearby after we go out."

"Okay, what do you mean? Ruiwen.

"First of all, I'm not in a hurry to make [Dimeritium Bomb]. We can wait for Anson to find the last medicinal material before returning to Odinburg."

"My health is fine. I have experienced more uncomfortable and painful things than this. I just need to rest for a while and I will be fine."

"Okay." Dick didn't force it.

After Ruiwen returned to the tent to rest, he looked at the sled dogs in the distance and said, "There are five left. Anson, can these five sled dogs pull the three of us?"

"It's okay to go slower, but I have to give Gordon an extra sum of money after I go back. Who would have thought that we would be attacked by a snow monster?"

"You can continue to rest for a while. The entrance to the cave is sealed now, and nothing can come in."

"I'm going to pry a small opening to save us all from being suffocated to death."

"Dick, thank you for coming, otherwise..." Anson looked grateful.

"There's no need to say such polite words. When I take your money, I have to make sure it's safe. Besides, there's no such thing as smooth sailing in life."

Then Anson continued to get into the tent to rest, while Dick came to the entrance of the cave alone, and saw the few remaining sled dogs guarding the entrance of the cave, still lying on the ground timidly with their tails between their legs.

One of the sled dogs actually sobbed and shed tears.

Dick gently touched the head of the sled dog, then walked to the boulder and used force to break off the dead dogs that were frozen stiff and stuffed in the gaps of the boulder one by one.

Looking outside, as expected by Dick, this avalanche has blocked the place tightly. The low temperature and the squeeze have compacted the snow at the entrance of the cave.

Dick took out the steel sword and tentatively inserted it into the gap. Feeling how soft it was, he secretly thought he was lucky.

Fortunately, it is much softer than solid ice.

Then he repeatedly thrust forward several times, using the steel sword as a shovel, and bit by bit dug out a Tiny passage in the gap between the boulder and the cave, which was only big enough for his arm to pass through.

Feel the Moonlight above the Tiny channel, and at the same time there is a cold current pouring into it.

"Now we are not afraid of being suffocated in the cave or being poisoned by carbon monoxide." Dick murmured.

"But Ruiwen has a fever. It's really troublesome. Let's find the medicine quickly after we rest for a while. We have to go back."
