173, snow worms
"Rice, has the blizzard stopped?" asked Caesar, who was sitting in the underground cavern as panic spread, and five adventurers were close together, looking so handsome that it was impossible to distinguish between men and women.
The rest of the people also looked at Rice expectantly, this dragon man who was not liked by everyone because he was too cold has become their only lifeline now.
Before they received the hunting mission and came to the ice field with great ambition, they never expected to encounter such a terrifying environment, and if it wasn't for Rice's ice ability to create this hole at the last moment, their best fate would be to leave a whole corpse in the terrifying ice elemental storm.
Rice's face was pale, and it would take a lot of his energy to maintain this hole: "Not yet. He felt impatient and didn't want to be distracted by answering questions, but in order for the temporary companions not to break down with fear, he had to keep telling them about the changes in the blizzard, even if it was a lie: "But soon, I feel that the elemental rebellion is subsided. ”
The desperate hearts of the other four people once again injected a glimmer of hope, they were not blind, they had noticed the trembling of Rice's body, obviously the energy in his body was running out, once Rice couldn't hold on, the outcome was obvious, they wouldn't even leave the corpse.
Caesar moved his uncomfortable longbow on his back and whispered, "When the blizzard stops, let's leave the ice field, our energy is running out, and we can't replenish it here." ”
The other three nodded their heads.
Rice was irritated, and once again felt that it was a huge mistake for him to be so sloppy in searching for his comrades, and these four people had no effect at all except to drag him down, "You are at your own convenience, but I want to stay here." ”
Caesar kindly persuaded: "Rice, although you are very strong, it is impossible to kill the snow worm by yourself, so it is better to leave with us and come back after resting." ”
Rice ignored him, concentrating on maintaining the cave, and Caesar tried to say something more, but was stopped by the other three.
After a brief silence, the blizzard suddenly subsided, and Rice pursed her lips and removed her hands from the cave wall: "Stop, you can..."
Before he could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by a violent vibration from the depths of the ice, Caesar stood up violently, drew his longbow into a full moon, and an elemental arrow condensed and was ready to fire, and he screamed, "There's a big guy coming from the ground! Damn, it's a snow bug!"

After hearing Adam's warning, Camby on the ice field was like a great enemy, and the little remaining plant energy wrapped his body, and the creatures that could survive in such a cruel environment as the ice field must be very powerful, and he didn't expect Adam to protect himself at all.
Boom.
The ice exploded a hundred meters away, and five figures rushed out of it, and Camby was slightly stunned: "Is it an ordinary race, an adventurer?"
"It's not them. Adam was suspended in the air, and the pseudo-realm formed by Long Wei protected his whole body, these five adventurers he had already discovered, but he didn't even have the interest in killing with the ant-like energy fluctuations, and it was another creature that caught his attention.
The five adventurers screamed and rushed out of the ground, and the extreme panic made them have no cooperation, and they ran in all directions in a panic, and then the ice cracked inch by inch, making a seeping squeak, and the next second a huge worm creature rushed out of the ice field.
The worm has a snow-white body with no variegation, no structure equivalent to limbs, and its body is composed of many body segments, with a spike-shaped head and vague head organs, except for a large mouth full of fine teeth that is constantly opening and closing as its body wriggles, spitting white light and creating a blizzard, and devouring all the material that stands in its way.
"What is this?" asked Adam curiously, this worm has reached five meters just by exposing the part outside the ice field, and its hidden body does not know how long it is, it should be a powerful magical beast.
Camby looked panicked and said with fear, "If I'm not mistaken, it's a snow bug." ”
"Snow bugs?"
"The unique monsters of the ice field, where there is ice and ice, can hardly be killed, has no intelligence, is extremely brutal, and will attack all creatures with energy fluctuations in the range until they are eaten. However, everything they eat will be excreted after digestion, and the value of excrement is very high, so there are often adventurers who don't know whether to live or die to try their luck, "Camby's face was pale, he didn't expect his luck to be so bad this time, he just carried the blizzard, and he encountered the most terrible monster on the ice field, "My lord, while it is attracted, let's escape?"
Adam had no intention of running away, although the snow worm looked terrifying, it had not yet reached the true transcendent level, and posed no threat to Adam, he took advantage of the opportunity of the snow worm to chase the adventurer, and landed on the ground to pick up a square suspicious object.
"Power stones?"
Adam was surprised, he didn't expect that there was such a creature in the multi-plane that could generate stable energy blocks from the body, this kind of thing was exactly the same as the power stone of the mage plane, and even the quantity and quality contained in it were more and purer.
Camby followed Adam's side step by step, thinking that Adam was asking him, and hurriedly replied: "This is the excrement of snow insects, the Race Alliance calls it an ice element crystal, but it is also good to call it a power stone." ”
In the mage plane, mages can freely transform power stones with different attributes, but it is clear that the dragon plane does not have this technology.
Adam felt as if he knew the reason why the mage plane power stones were not very valuable, and this kind of creature that could produce energy stones may be very common in multiple planes, which means that in every plane battle, a large amount of power stone resources can be obtained.
In the middle of his thoughts, the snow worm had already devoured the three adventurers, and the remaining two were fleeing towards the calmest place nearby. The aura escaping from its body can form an elemental storm, and if the level is too far away from it, it can't even fly away, so it can only obediently become its food.
At this moment, Adam felt the snow worm turn over in the ground, bringing a large bulge of the ice field, and rushed towards him as well.
———
"Rice, forget it, I'm dead. "Caesar's longbow has been lost, a large area of his body has been frozen by frost, and his feet have lost his mobility, and he has to rely on Rice to drag and escape.
Rice didn't say a word, and struggled through the blizzard caused by the snow bugs.
"Put me down, you can run for your life, and if you can, go to Lepu City to take care of my sister. Caesar struggled with his upper body.
"Shut up. Rice viciously sealed Caesar's mouth and dragged him to leap as hard as he could, dodging the energy beams of the snow worms.
