In the eastern part of the Arctic Mountains, the towering peaks gradually lower in height, and a river formed by the melting snow of the snow-capped mountains cut the eastern mountains into a unique karst landform and flow into the sea at the eastern end of the mountains.

Unlike the western part of the mountain range, which is directly connected to the frozen snowfields, the eastern part of the extremely cold mountain range is still not very warm, but when the entire continent enters spring and summer, some green can be seen in the eastern mountain range. As a result, there are far more people living in the eastern mountains than in the west, and the eastern mountains are much more dispersed than in the west. Compared to the western mountains, which are only a small snow town located at the junction of the extremely cold mountains and the frozen snow fields, the eastern mountain range basically has a small human village every few mountains. Every year, villages decline or disappear for various reasons, and at the same time, new villages appear.

Most of the disappeared villages will be completely lost in time, but some villages destroyed overnight due to natural disasters and other external factors will leave a lot of traces, as if the last scene of the film is frozen, telling the scene of the moment of destruction of the village.

These villages that have been destroyed by natural disasters usually leave behind some of the things they have, and there are even legends of scavengers finding priceless treasures in the destroyed villages. Therefore, every newly discovered village ruin will be like a treasure, repeatedly visited by a large number of scavengers who have received the news and the villagers of nearby villages, digging three feet into the ground until it is confirmed that there is nothing of value left.

Mette is a trainee hunter, and the village of Casey where he is located is also a village with a very long history in the eastern mountains. Since it is a hunter village, the potential strength of Casey Village is enough for them to withstand the attacks of powerful monsters from the frozen land. Mette even heard from the old village chief that when Casey Village was at its strongest, even the moving natural disasters of dinosaurs were defeated by the fierce hunters in Casey Village. However, there are no more powerful hunters in Casey now, although the village still has weapons that can fight against wurms that are more powerful than the dinosaurs. But it's been a long time since there has been a hunter who is strong enough.

As a trainee hunter, in addition to completing the work arranged by the village every day to make a living, Mette also needs to go to the mountains to find herb fruits to complete the task of trainee hunter. Only after completing enough gathering tasks will he be allowed to choose a weapon that suits him and learn the hunting skills of a true hunter.

Mette was unfortunate, as he had been given the task of exploring a mountain peak a full day's journey from the village, which was already within the boundaries of the village's hunters hunting monsters. Although security is said to be guaranteed, no matter what happens at a place like the border, it is not an accident.

Mette was also lucky, starting from the village all the way to the target peak, Mette did not encounter a single poisonous snake attack. Luckily, halfway up the mountain, Mette found a trail with obvious traces of artificiality, along which Mette found a village in a valley surrounded by mountains, the remains of a village, to be exact, the remains of a village that had not yet been explored.

This discovery excites Mette, and according to the rules of the village, whoever first discovers the ruins can take whatever they find in the ruins for themselves. At the same time, reporting the existence of the ruins to the village can be rewarded with a large amount, and if the village can get enough benefit from the ruins, the finder can also receive an additional reward. For Mette, even if he didn't find anything of value in the ruins, he didn't get that extra reward. The rewards he could get from reporting the ruins were enough for him to make ends meet without having to do the work arranged by the village to make ends meet before he became an official hunter.

In order to ensure that he could go back and report the discovery of the ruins as soon as possible, Mette decided to search the ruins for an extra day. The ruins of this valley village were not large, and a day was enough time for him to search most of the buildings that were still in good condition, and he had some time left to search for the destroyed buildings.

Over the course of the night, Mette seemed to continue his good fortune, and in a largely well-preserved two-story building, Mette found more than a dozen gold coins. And after this huge harvest, Mette found a pair of hunter's twin knives made of unknown biological materials in this building.

Just as Mette was excited about his good fortune, a peculiar howl caught his attention, followed by a second howl that seemed to respond to Mette's mood quickly changing from excitement to nervousness, even fear. This howl belongs to a low-level wurm that lives in the extremely cold mountains, the white velocosaurus. This low-level wurm, which is about two meters long and stands one and a half meters high, can be regarded as the first threshold for novice hunters. This wurm is fast and appears in pairs, but its attack and defense are very weak, and even novice hunters who have just completed their hunter training can easily chase them away or kill them as long as they strictly follow the hunting skills. However, all this is for hunters who have completed hunter training, and for Met, who does not even have a low-level hunter protective suit, the so-called weak attack power of the White Speed Dragon is enough to pose a deadly threat to him.

Of course, holding the hunter's twin knives he had just found, Mette comforted himself, although he was only a trainee hunter, he had already learned the skills of hunting the White Speed Dragon, and he also had a weapon in his hand that could cut the skin of the White Speed Dragon. But having said that, Mette didn't rush out of the building to find Bai Sulong desperately. Not trying to take on challenges that you can't do is also a reiterating point in the Hunter's Code. If a fight could be avoided by dodging, Mette didn't mind spending a little more time in the building.

And when the howls rang out continuously, and Mette peeked out from the window on the second floor of the building, his fighting spirit was quickly extinguished as if a basin of snow had been poured on him, and the seeds of fear began to sprout in his heart. Only one White Velocity Dragon can be seen from Met's position, but it is enough to see this one, as this White Velocity Dragon has a very obvious crown, which is a White Velocity Dragon King.

If it is said that the white speed dragon is a threshold for novice hunters, it represents whether it can become an official hunter. Then the White Speed Dragon King is a novice hunter's nightmare. Although it is only a little larger than a normal white speed dragon, it is not the same in terms of the attack power of the claws or the defense power of the skin. And more importantly, as the king of the White Speed Dragon, the White Speed Dragon King can rely on his howl to summon any White Speed Dragon from several surrounding mountains to come to help, and in normal times, there are at least five or more White Speed Dragons to protect him.

Against a white speed dragon, Mette was confident that he would be able to win with the weapon in his hand. Against the last two, Mette believes he can at least protect himself. As for the White Speed Dragon King, which included more than five guards, Mette really couldn't think of any vitality for himself. Holding his breath and waiting for the White Speed Dragon King to leave with his guards was the only option Mette had right now.

However, as if Mette's luck had run out, the White Speed Dragon King sniffed the air a few times before walking straight towards the building where Mette was. This action frightened Mette did not dare to stay at the window any longer. Although the window on the second floor of this two-storey building is nearly seven meters high from the ground, this height is nothing to the White Speed Dragon King, if it is directly discovered by the other party, Mette believes that the White Speed Dragon King will definitely jump up and attack him as soon as possible. And if it were only for the smell he had left outside, perhaps the gate and staircase of the building would make the cautious White Speed Dragon King give up the idea of looking for himself.

Just as Mette was hiding in a small sealed room on the second floor, praying that the White Speed Dragon King would give up looking for him. Outside, there was a sudden howl from the White Speed Dragon King, which was the howl of his companions after discovering a powerful prey. And then there was one response after another. Mette counted, and at least twenty White Speed Dragons answered the White Speed Dragon King's howl from nearby. Definitely not because the White Speed Dragon King found himself, did he find other wurms? Or did some other hunter discover this ruin? Mette mentally guessed the situation, but he didn't dare to look at it, more than twenty White Speed Dragons, as long as one of them found him, he would be dead.

Outside the small room, the white speed dragon howled one after another, which was accompanied by screams and mournful screams before death, which made Mette sure that the white speed dragon group must have encountered some powerful creature walking alone, and after misjudging the strength comparison between the two sides, the white speed dragon group that launched the attack was hit by the other party's strong blow. However, Mette was still unsure of what the White Speed Dragon Group had encountered, except for the White Speed Dragon's cry, he didn't hear the roar of any other creatures, and at the same time, there was no cry of a powerful hunter when using a weapon, unless this hunter was strong enough to easily kill the entire White Speed Dragon Group.

The White Dragon's howl didn't last long, and as a long, mournful roar appeared, and Mette heard the other White Dragons whimper like lost dogs as they fled. The appearance of this sound means that Bai Sulong began to run away with all his might. And there is only one reason for this sound to appear in a group of white speed dragons with king beasts, the death of the white speed dragon king. For Mette, this means that he is safe.

Realizing that he was safe, Mette suddenly wanted to know what kind of powerful creature or a powerful hunter he had accidentally saved him, so he violated the hunter's code of not taking risks out of curiosity, and left the small secret room where he was hiding, came to the window, and looked in the direction he had seen the White Speed Dragon King before.

Shi Leiyin was very depressed and put on the cloak that had been torn open by the White Speed Dragon King. I was going to ask how to leave the Arctic Mountains and go to the nearest town in the south, but this village in the memory of the elder dryant was obviously empty. The ruins of the village have actually become a gathering place for the White Speed Dragon. Although it was an inevitable encounter, as a powerful creature that had evolved to the fifth and eleventh levels and was only one step away from the sixth order, Shi Leiyin's instinct made him unable to tolerate the White Speed Dragon King treating him as his prey. This is the natural reaction of the higher organisms to the provocation of the lower beings. So, after cutting off the heads of more than a dozen white speed dragons in a row, Shi Leiyin, who was troublesome, directly exploded the head of the white speed dragon king who had repeatedly dodged his attacks with his speed with an electromagnetic cannon.

After putting on her cloak and dressing herself up as a human again, Shi Leiyin was about to go outside the village to bring Shui Jing and her sisters in. Although the village is no longer inhabited, it appears that some of the buildings are still intact. Since the purpose of asking someone for directions cannot be achieved, then having a covered place to sleep is a little compensation.

When Shi Leiyin raised his head, he happened to see a human boy looking at the window of the building that he had taken a fancy to use as a place to sleep at night.

"Huh, there's anyone here?"
