Volume II, Chapter 109
"Still can't you feel it?" said Shi Leiyin's tone with a hint of disappointment.
Originally, with the Ice Elemental Elves guiding the way, Shi Leiyin thought that if he moved forward for a while, he should be able to sense the place suitable for those Ice Elemental Elves to gather, which was the first destination of their trip, the Ice Lake. But it had been more than two hours since the lunch break and set off again, and the forest had already occupied a large part of the field of vision, but he no longer had any sense of the location of the ice lake, and not only himself, but also Shui Jing did not have the slightest sense. There are two explanations for this situation, one is that the glacial lake is still very far away from them, so far away that it cannot be sensed. The second is that they actually went in the wrong direction, and although the elves were flying in this direction, they made an unknown turn outside of Shi Leiyin's field of vision.
If it's the former, Shi Leiyin isn't worried, anyway, with the general direction of progress, as long as he persists, he will naturally reach his destination, while the latter is a bit troublesome.
"I hope I can meet the elves again tomorrow," Shi Leiyin said with a hint of regret as he looked at the trees in front of him that were getting clearer and clearer. After communicating with Shui Jing before, he also knew that the encounter with the ice elemental elf this time was purely a coincidence. Due to the abundance of ice elements in the tundra plateau, almost most places have the conditions to breed ice elemental elves. However, even so, it takes a long time to accumulate elements to give birth to even an ice elemental pokemon, and it also needs some inducements. Before they came here, the accumulation of ice elementals had reached a level where they could give birth to ice elemental elves, and the two true elemental elves, Shui Jing and Jie Liya, had become the trigger. That's why so many pokemons appeared on the next day, and they were also attracted to Shui Jing and Jie Liya. Shui Jing also told Shi Leiyin by the way, like the Elven Tree, Elemental Coral, a special creature that can give birth to elves, and it is precisely because there are elves around that they can give birth to a large number of elemental elves. Based on the above, Shi Leiyin's desire to encounter a new ice elemental elf is basically delusional, because it is estimated that all the ice elemental elves in this land have been bred, and they should have all run away.
When there was no food to eat on the ground, the speed of the Ice Armor Herbivorous Dragon was still considerable, and before nightfall, Shi Leiyin and the others had already walked to the outermost edge of the woods. It is said that this is the outermost edge because although trees have begun to appear here, they are completely sporadic one or two, and the distance between the trees is large enough for dozens of ice-armored herbivorous dragons to pass side by side. In addition to the tall trees, there are also scattered shrubs and weeds on the ground, and there has been no snow in recent days, so most of the shrubs and weeds are not covered with snow, but show their scattered branches and leaves, making the pure white world rich in color.
Allowing the Ice Armor Herbivorous Dragon to gnaw on the surrounding bushes, this herbivorous wurm can basically eat anything as long as it is a plant, and when there is ready-made food, Shi Leiyin is not willing to waste the grain and grass reserves.
Shi Leiyin has always been a little heavy, but under Jie Liya's words, it has become much better.
At dinner, Shi Leiyin expressed her worries about the way forward, only to be reminded that if the ice lake had an enchantment like their elven secret realm, then even if Shi Leiyin walked very close, she would not feel it.
It was this sentence that made Shi Leiyin suddenly realize. Shi Leiyin then remembered that he had overlooked a big problem, originally when he and Shui Jing came to this continent, they fell in the Great Barrier of Tree Spirits, and when they were leaving, the Elder Tree Spirit Mo Mo Ambi also specially gave some locations where the Great Barrier was located, but he forgot because he had not encountered the Barrier since leaving the Tree Spirit Forest.
After figuring out the reason why he couldn't sense the location of the ice lake, Shi Leiyin's mood was much better, and he also made a little tricks when building a snow room for camping at night. Because he had reached the edge of the forest, Shi Leiyin deliberately chose two trees that grew together, and then between their trunks, he used the branches to build a large snowroom that was much taller than usual.
However, Shui Jing and Jie Liya are not very interested in this house with obvious signs of human architecture, and in Jie Liya's words, there is no natural beauty at all. Although Shui Jing did not express any opinion on the snow room itself, she still said that she preferred the room that was closer to Lei Yin's brother before.
However, Zilde is more happy to be able to live in a human house again, although the walls and roof are still made of snow, for him who has been used to living in a house since he was a child, but has been sleeping in the wild since he was a child, it is enough to be happy.
Shi Leiyin's hardship was exchanged for Zilde's praise, which was naturally a bit disappointing, so he didn't continue to plan to add other decorations to the snow room. The windows were finally blocked at the unanimous request of everyone, and the nights in the frozen snow were so cold that leaving the windows open was no different from the open air. However, Shi Leiyin had an idea, and made a block of ice with high transparency to block the original window, so that everyone could continue to see the starry sky outside through the window. This move was unanimously praised, and Jie Liya also said that "it's not bad to live in a room like this once in a while".
After the novelty of looking at the stars through the ice window, Shi Leiyin was once again asked to turn into a large bed, this time to provide space for three people to sleep on. While turning into a comfortable slime waterbed according to Jieliya's instructions, Shi Leiyin also remembered what happened to her previous time with Erica and several other girls.
Shrayin is not a nostalgic person, but Erica and Jessica are the first humans he has encountered since he came to this world. At the same time, although the contract has been broken, Erica was once the owner of the low-level slime's Thunder after all, and this feeling can be placed, but it will not be forgotten. And the other person who once asked him to change the waterbed - Charlotte the Candy Witch, Shi Leiyin will not forget it.
Memories caused by the incident, thoughts caused by memories, and thinking of the difference between him and Erica and the others at that time, Shi Leiyin suddenly wanted to know the whereabouts of those he cared about, and wanted to know how the other party was doing. This feeling is even stronger than the feeling of missing my hometown after becoming a slime.
"I'm still alone after all" Shi Leiyin, who finally calmed down his mood, sighed softly, 'looking' at the three little guys sleeping sweetly on his body, "It's just that I'm also a monster slime at the same time, it's still quite advanced."
