The snowflakes are fluttering, and the north wind is bleak.

Heaven and earth are vast.

The northeastern corner of the continent is deep in the permafrost ocean, surrounded by mountains and ravines, where the snow recedes and the land sees the sun for only three short summer months of the year.

For the other nine months of the year, the land is either snowing or has not yet melted.

At the end of October, in the far north, it is already dripping into ice, whether it is moss growing on the rock soil or ice slimes the size of glass marbles, all huddle under the snow and wait for next summer.

The howling north wind blew Charles away as he teleported into the air.

Fortunately, he had a Marine girl in each hand, and the weight was enough to not fly far.

In the crisp and cheerful laughter of the girls, the three of them fell into the thick snow with a "bang".

Not long after, three fluffy and round humanoid objects crawled out of the snowdrift.

A semi-circular igloo rose from the ground and enveloped the three of them.

"Are you all right?" Charles asked the two female soldiers beside him.

The two girls who came with him to catch the Deep Sea Electric Eel King this time were Genia with brown hair and Sonia with black hair.

After settling down in the navy, the girls renamed themselves.

They were all Gatling gunners from the same company fire support detachment in the Marine Corps, and it was their company's turn to take a break these days, and they had also caught magical beasts such as the Deep Sea Electric Eel King here before, so they came over after negotiating terms with Charles.

The girls shook the snow from their bodies, and Genia went over and kissed Charles's snow-covered face.

She said, "Thank you just now. ”

Seeing this, Sonia also kissed Charles's other cheek and said, "Although falling from this height is the same as playing for us. ”

Charles blushed, and when he fell down just now, he subconsciously used his body to block under the girls.

He cleaned the snowflakes from his body and asked, "Are we now a kilometer or two away from the ice floes on the coast, do we go over now or wait for the snow to stop?"

Genia said: "Now let's go over, let's go to the ice, and then set up a stronghold there, and the wind and snow may stop now, maybe until next year." ”

Charles nodded, and they put on their skis and skipped north.

The north wind was still fierce, and Charles cast a pointed magic shield in front of him to prevent himself from being blown away.

Genia and Sonia didn't care about the snowstorm, they were already playing around.

In the wind, a beautiful song suddenly sounded.

It was Genia's singing voice, she was a very good singer, she had a beautiful singing voice, and she was the first to sing the heroic songs of a thousand years ago on stage on the day of the performance.

Charles couldn't understand the lyrics coming from the wind, but he vaguely felt that he had a slight resonance with the song, and understood that the girl was longing to break through the wind and snow and bask in the warm sun.

They soon came to the sea.

The sea has long been covered with a thick layer of ice floe, like an extension of the land.

After walking more than a hundred meters into the sea, they stopped on the thick ice.

"Here it is. Genia said beside Charles.

Charles nodded, and then began to cast his magic.

——————

He studied under the spirit of the artifact "Ice Spear" in the ice magic, and learned a lot of practical magic for tuition by learning a magic from a barrel of good wine, and how to quickly build an igloo is one of them.

In a matter of moments, a semi-circular igloo with a diameter of seven or eight meters appeared on the sea ice.

Skati has learned badly, a barrel of wine can only learn to this extent, if you want to build a three-bedroom, two-living room and one-bathroom igloo, you have to add wine, and the ice castle has to add more.

Charles didn't want to encourage her bad habits, so he didn't continue to study.

But this is enough, and it is enough to cover yourself with a tile when you go out.

In the corner of the igloo, he made a hole in the ground with a diameter of two meters leading to the sea, and built a ring of ice railings next to it, so that the girls would not have to be blown by the cold wind when they entered and exited the water.

Charles doesn't know if they are afraid of the cold, he only knows that their current strength has not yet recovered, so it is better to be careful.

Once the igloo was built, he laid a few thick bearskins in the middle to make a carpet, hung a lamp on the top, and placed a magic stove and a king-sized pressure cooker in the middle.

"I'll help you. Sonia said.

Charles shook his head and said, "You guys have a good rest first, and then go into the water when you are full." ”

After he finished speaking, he began to prepare to eat, a large piece of beef brisket was cut into pieces and blanched in a pot under cold water for 2 minutes, then cleaned with warm water, and after adding water, it was stewed with ginger slices, bay leaves, star anise, Sichuan pepper, rock sugar, light soy sauce, cooking wine, and dark soy sauce, and at the same time, the potatoes were cut into pieces, ready to be added when the brisket was stewed.

The most expensive thing about this meal was the spices, which he bought from the elves at the internal price.

When he was done, he found the two girls sitting on the bearskin opposite, holding their chins and looking at him quietly.

"Oh, forgot!" Charles brought out two large barrels of wine to them, as a reward.

The girls put the wine aside, and Genia said, "We'll pay you when we get our prey back." ”

Then they looked at each other, got up, and began to undress.

Charles was embarrassed and hurriedly turned around to do it.

The girl took off all the clothes on her body, and then a burst of golden light came out, and the originally tall and plump demon girl was gradually getting shorter.

"That's it. ”

"We don't mind, what are you shy about?"

Genia's voice remained the same, but her appearance had changed a lot.

Appearing in front of Charles were two little Loli with short silver hair and golden eyes, wearing black swimsuits like dead water, Genia was wearing a black long-sleeved glove on her left hand, Sonia's glove was on her right hand, and they were also holding a fully enclosed hood in the shape of glass.

What surprised Charles the most was that they had a short mechanical tail behind them, and a metal structure like a conch shell behind them, with three octopus-like tentacles sticking out of it.

Genia asked, "What, scared?"

Charles shook his head, picked up the fur coat from the ground with the mage's hand and put it on the Φ-class submarine loli, "Be careful of catching a cold." ”

The coats were taken by their tentacles, which were as nimble as their hands.

Obviously relieved, Genia said, "I'm afraid you'll be frightened by the way we look. ”

Charles's eyes flickered, and he released a clump of entwined aquatic plants attached to his back, and those aquatic plants danced with their teeth and claws.

"Look. "I have more hands than you do, and I can discharge...... Ahh

This thing has charged itself.

A burst of laughter filled the igloo, with Genia holding her stomach in her left hand and hammering the ice with her right hand and tentacles. Sonia Sven was a little bit, and she covered her mouth with her hand and snickered.

"Thank you. Genia laughed and said to Charles seriously, "Thank you for accepting us like this." ”

"We can't change our appearance at will like my gods, we can only change between limited postures, and this appearance is already our original appearance. ”

Charles was surprised, he thought the girls could turn back into slimes.

He asked the question cautiously, and Genia said, "Let Sonia answer this, she is smarter than me, she is better than me." ”

Sonia took a deep breath and said, "That's a long story. ”

"You know, we're all evolved from slimes. ”

"In the years we call the Age of Chaos, we strengthened ourselves by devouring each other, like wild beasts. ”

"At that time, the days were chaotic, and then we gradually divided into four groups under the leadership of our gods, and fought and devoured each other for I don't know how many years. ”

"Until one day, the lord appeared. ”

"He told us that we can only destroy the road if we continue like this, and we should embark on the path of sustainable development. ”

"I'm not afraid of your jokes, we were all stupid at that time, and our intelligence was just a little higher than that of kobolds. ”

"Our gods and they are powerful, but at that time they were only wars. ”

"That adult is very clever and can tell a lot of great truths, and we are willing to listen to him. ”

"Then our gods came up with a solution, that is, we give up the power to devour, so that we can gain the same mind as the one. ”

Charles frowned and asked, "Equivalent exchange?"

"Sort of. Sonia said, "I've heard my god say once before that Devouring is something we are born with as a slime, but while it is powerful, it lacks evolutionary diversity, leaving us to survive as beasts. ”

"Later, our gods and their gods prayed to the gods that the slimes of the world would give up this ability in exchange for wise souls. ”

"At that time, the Lord asked my gods, what is a wise soul in their eyes?"

Our God answered, just as the Lord did. ”

In the end, the god agreed, but he said that ordinary slimes are too weak to control such a powerful soul, so only when we are strong enough can the soul be sublimated to such a level, and then reborn as a different slime than before. ”

After listening to this, Charles pondered for a long time, and it seemed that according to the taxonomy, the genera and species of the Domain Phylum Compendium were divided, and they all belonged to the Slime family.

Under the Slime family, it is also divided into water slime, land slime, and down there are also large slimes, poison slimes, carpet slimes, ice slimes, and sludge monsters, etc.

When these slimes are strong enough to a certain extent, they will evolve into a new species of intelligent slimes, which is what these girls do.

It seems that the previous Sludge Monster King was the slime who was about to cross this threshold.

"The soul determines the body. Sonia continued, "Our soul evolution goals are based on that adult, so our bodies will be similar to that one, and later that adult provided us with a lot of templates for human bodies. ”

Now Charles understands what this is all about, the slimes can become girls, and the old man who crossed too early is indispensable.

However, a new question has arisen.,Who is the "Divine Lord" that Sonia said just now?,It seems that he is a higher level of existence than Bismeow and Purple Cabbage.,He is not the same thing as the "Divine Lord" mentioned in the news when the holy relics returned to the demons.

At this point, the potato goulash was ready, and Charles decided to wait until he got back and ask Biss Meow.

The lid of the pressure cooker was lifted again, and the fragrant smell suddenly filled the igloo.

Charles filled each of the two slime loli bowls and filled a little to eat.

He said while eating: "If you don't have enough to eat, you don't need to rush under the sea, you can find it, and if you can't find it, forget it." Come back when you're tired and hungry, eat and rest well, this time no, next time we come back on vacation, your safety is the first. ”

Sonia also said while eating: "Don't worry, the current deep-sea electric eels are all staying near the underwater fountain, and they can be easily found." ”

They were quickly fed, and after a set of warm-up exercises, they got into the water from the igloo hole.
