Chapter 243: Snow Monster
In the vast snow-capped mountains, Zhang Jianyang took Lan Keying and the six of them at a gallop, and there was almost no trace of footprints in the places they passed, and there was no trace of stepping on the snow.
After running wildly for most of the day, take a rest when you are tired, and if your star power is consumed too much, you will drink Lou Orchid Water. There was almost no pause along the way, and in the evening, we finally crossed the Heilongjiang Province, crossed the border of a hundred years ago, and stepped into the more dangerous region of Siberia.
If there were few traces of it before, it is almost untouched in this part of Siberia.
Zhang Jianyang has no understanding of this area.
Siberia is nominally part of Russia, but in fact it is deserted and inhabited, and the movement of the earth's crust and the harshness of the climate make the temperature here generally around minus 30 degrees. Everything you can see is covered in snow. What's more, mutant beasts are rampant here, and it is completely a paradise for mutant beasts.
Russia is powerless to manage places like this, and it is simply put on a map.
To be honest, if it weren't for the release of the nine-star mission this time, Zhang Jianyang might not have set foot in this area in his lifetime. But this sudden task provoked Zhang Jianyang's memories, and at the same time gave Zhang Jianyang a desire for stronger power. This is not an impulse, but once this mission is successful, Zhang Jianyang can be sure that he will become stronger.
"What is the ultimate power of the Star Warrior?"
Zhang Jianyang couldn't figure it out, now that he could use star power to change the gravitational pull of the earth, what would happen if he went further?
Patches of coniferous forests are the most distinctive feature of Siberia, and the undulating mountains are all covered with such coniferous forests. The thick layer of snow pressed on these coniferous trees, and if you touched it casually, it would be a "bang" of snow falling from the ground. Some of the peaks, completely covered in snow and with very little vegetation, can often cause a rumbling avalanche with a single yelling at them.
Stopping on a small snowy mountain with undulating conditions, Zhang Jianyang looked at a plant standing proudly in the cold wind, and asked Song Jianfei to lend him the dagger and take a few steps to reach this plant.
In this almost snow-covered place, it is very surprising to suddenly see a plant that is still waist-high with a thick green color, as if this plant does not belong here, and you can't see a trace of the old color under the cold snow on its body. What's more, some snowflakes fall onto its leaves and melt away in the blink of an eye.
Looking through its leaves and branches, you can see that its bark is faintly like a human meridian, flowing a vivid green.
"What kind of plant is this?"
Xia Shaojun asked curiously, and several of them gathered around and watched Zhang Jianyang carefully remove the snow around the plant, revealing the black soil underneath.
Tao Ruhai didn't think that Zhang Jianyang would stop for an ordinary mutant plant, with Zhang Jianyang's current identity and strength, he could attract his attention and dig it up, which was already destined to be extraordinary. The demon-level mutant herbs may not necessarily attract Zhang Jianyang's attention, right?
Zhang Jianyang instilled a trace of star power, and the dagger exuded a faint light, digging up this plant in the soil like cutting tofu.
"This plant is very rare, it is a fire genus, but it likes to grow in such extremely cold places. It is the main material of a pharmaceutical agent and is rarely seen on the market. Zhang Jianyang dug up the plant, took an empty Lou orchid water bottle from his luggage, and then used a dagger to cut off a small branch of the plant.
As if someone had broken an arm, a large amount of green liquid gushed out at the moment when this small branch was cut off.
Zhang Jianyang rubbed the severed twig a few times, crushed it, and then stuffed it into the bottle. The liquid of the plant was very full, and the bottle was full in a moment, which had to make Zhang Jianyang take out another bottle. Emptying the liquid, Zhang Jianyang did not let the plants go, but kneaded them into powder, sprinkled them into a bottle, and mixed them with the liquid.
Carefully filling the two bottles, Zhang Jianyang showed a smile: "Don't underestimate it, these two bottles of liquid are enough to make twenty bottles of top-grade elixir." ”
As a top-level elixir, Zhang Jianyang naturally understands the role of this Ice and Fire Tree, and the twenty bottles of potion that have been blended will be worth millions each. With hundreds of millions in front of him, Zhang Jianyang has no reason to give up like this.
Except for Zhang Jianyang, the six of them had no research on potions, and they had no interest in this Ice and Fire Tree.
After Zhang Jianyang cleaned up, the group moved forward again, and after crossing a few snow-capped mountains, what came into view was a flat needle forest, with almost no end in sight. The thick snow pressed on the coniferous forest, and as far as the eye could see, it was all made of white, like a white ocean, and the sea surface composed of coniferous trees rose and fell into waves with each other.
As far as the eye can see, you can see a lot of mutant beasts coming in and out of it.
Looking at the sky, there was almost no sunlight, and it was a little late.
The light reflects under the snow, and there is no fading in the south, and when it is dark to a certain extent, it is snow-white.
"We'll rest here tonight, and then we'll cross this sea of needles tomorrow." Zhang Jianyang hesitated, but decided to rest here. Resting in the woods is too dangerous.
Tao Ruhai and they had no opinion, they searched on this snowy mountain, and saw that there was nothing to rely on the wind, and Cheng Qianbo, a giant man, smashed his fist on the snow wall like ice cubes, shattering the ice and snow, revealing the half-meter-deep dirt and stone surface inside. Under the powerful destruction, Cheng Qianbo spent half an hour directly carving this place into a wind-sheltered cave that could accommodate seven people to pause for one night.
Song Jianfei and the others were not idle, and they used this time to quickly hunt and kill a male stag with a mutation of nearly 1,000 catties.
Cheng Qianbo brought an alloy pot, added the pot, melted it into water with snow, and then put the sliced venison into it. Gu Shifeng cut some branches, skewered the venison, and made a fire and barbecued it. Siberia is rich in specialties, and Xia Shaojun and Lan Keying collected some wild mushrooms and threw them into the pot together.
Soon, the area smells of meat.
"It's a pity that there is no wine." Tao Ruhai has some regrets, like his current life, he likes it, and he is right to travel.
Tao Ruhai's regret is agreed by everyone.
On such a cold night, without a pot of spirits, eating meat, it felt like something was missing.
…… The night in the snow is like the holy moonlight.
Several tall white plush shadows appeared in this needle forest, and as they moved, the needle trees were knocked off by them, and the snow fell "with a bang". What's even more bizarre is that these shadows hold a thick section of broken wood in their palms, and their noses are spraying gas, forming two lines of smoke.
They sniffed desperately, then strode through the needle woods, towards where the scent came from.
Zhang Jianyang, who had enjoyed this meal of venison, had not yet fallen asleep, Zhang Jianyang felt something approaching, and a wave of oppression came out.
Zhang Jianyang sat up, pulled out the two Mitsubishi military thorns, and then jumped and stood on the edge of a cliff in the snow-capped mountain, looking in the direction where the oppressive force came from.
Lan Keying, who had been sleeping by Zhang Jianyang, then jumped up wearing a piece of clothing, stood next to Zhang Jianyang, saw Zhang Jianyang with a serious face, and whispered: "What's the situation?" She gently hugged Zhang Jianyang's arm and snuggled up to Zhang Jianyang's side. Under the cold, it didn't make Lan Keying feel how cold it was.
Zhang Jianyang said: "There may be some trouble. ”
Lan Keying frowned and said, "Is there a mutant beast approaching?" "The difference between her and Zhang Jianyang is still too big, Zhang Jianyang can sense it, but she can't detect it.
"It should be, but ......" Zhang Jianyang did not explain, but said: "Go and wake everyone up." ”
can make Zhang Jianyang treat it so carefully, Lan Keying also knows that the situation must be very serious, otherwise Zhang Jianyang would not be like this. turned around and went down, waking up Tao Ruhai and the others, and then after packing up everything, the six of them returned to the place where Zhang Jianyang was standing, pulled out their weapons and held them in their hands.
At this time, they also sensed that several mutant beasts with strong oppressive surnames were approaching here.
In the distance, trees were broken one by one, and in this night, the sound of breaking could be heard far away.
Tao Ruhai couldn't help but say, "Head, what kind of mutant beast is it?" This oppressive aura made Tao Ruhai a little uneasy, as a seven-star warrior, what could make him uneasy was at least an eighth-order existence, and maybe even a ninth-order existence.
Zhang Jianyang didn't make a sound, but kept staring at the place where the voice came from.
The speed of the other party's movement was not slow, but for a moment, the sound of the trees breaking seemed to ring in the ears.
Excellent eyesight, so that Zhang Jianyang soon found this white shadow as high as several meters, they are striding towards here, one by one coniferous trees that have grown for hundreds of years, they only need to pull out their hands, these coniferous trees are crushed, as if breaking off a branch. Under the reflection of the snow-white light, you can see that they are almost integrated with the snow, and the whole body is white.
Zhang Jianyang finally determined the identity of these mutant beasts at this time, with a strange and helpless look on his face, and said slowly: "You must not have heard of these mutant beasts, with some legends. It is said that they are all evolved bodies that are radiated by wild people, and they are called snow monsters, a kind of super eighth-order existence. ”
In reality, there is no record of the snow monster at all, and the record that Zhang Jianyang knows is actually in the fantasy world.
Don't talk about Tao Ruhai and them, there are almost no people in the world who have really seen these snow monsters.
Zhang Jianyang had not dealt with them, but the legends about them, especially the existence of the Super Eighth Order...... It's the frightening part.
