Endless Winter: My Camp Infinite Upgrades

Chapter 20 Got it
Having seen Snow Mane pretending to be dead once, Xia Hong certainly wouldn't be careless.

Playing dead is not an easy thing.

Even in the previous life, it was basically impossible for ordinary people to pretend to be dead.

Simply closing your eyes and lying on the ground is not called pretending to be dead, that is called filming.

If you want to really play dead, there are generally three steps;

First of all, you have to stop breathing and your body cannot move. This is the basis;

Secondly, you must be able to control the internal organs. Even if a person does not move, the blood vessels and pulse are still moving. By controlling the internal organs, stopping the heart from supplying blood and stopping the stomach and intestines from moving, the pulses in various parts of the body will also stop.

The last step is to hold your breath.

Holding the breath here does not mean not breathing, but stopping exhaling.

After a normal creature dies, its body will quickly decay and produce a very unpleasant odor, which is generally called corpse gas.

It is of course impossible to pretend to have the aura of a corpse, but at least you have to lock the aura of a living person on your body to confuse the other party.

Xia Hong had never observed Snowmane up close, but judging from the cunning and cautiousness of the Frost Wolves, to be able to deceive them, cold beasts like Snowmane must have a strong talent for playing dead.

Last time, weren't those people at Dashi Camp careful enough?

All the humans in the logging realm are struggling for survival at the extreme limit. If they could be fooled by even ordinary tricks of playing dead, they would have died countless times already.

Just as Xia Hong guessed, Xue Zong was indeed pretending to be dead.

The moment the Frostwolf let go, Snowmane's two stiff pupils suddenly moved, and two streams of heavy air blew out from between his nostrils, and his face became even more ferocious.

Even though only bones were left of his left hind limb, Snowmane was still able to use it to prop up his body. He then rolled over and rushed towards the Frostwolf, crushing it with the force of a mountain.

The Frostwolf realized that it had been tricked and subconsciously opened its mouth to continue climbing and biting, but unfortunately Snowmane did not give it a chance and crushed it with its back.

The back of Snowmane is covered with barbs.

One can imagine what the fate of the Frostwolf will be after opening its mouth.

Several barbs pierced directly into its mouth, and no one knew how much of its flesh had been penetrated. The Frost Wolf let out a painful roar, and dark green blood continued to flow out from its mouth.

The Frostwolf struggled and twisted on the ground, trying to get free, but Snowmane kept rolling in the direction of its twisting, giving it no chance at all.

Until the frost wolf's head was twisted all the way to its tail.

Being big certainly has its advantages, but in a life-and-death fight, any factor can be the difference between victory and defeat.

Snowmane was too big, so he only used half of his body to hold down the Frostwolf. When the Frostwolf twisted to his tail, his head finally had a chance to breathe.

The Frostwolf suddenly turned its head and bit the lower part of Snowmane's tail, where most of its left hind limb had been torn off.

This solid bite made Xuezong lose all his strength instantly.

The Frostwolf quickly crawled out from under its body, and then rushed into the depths of the dense forest.

Actually, he ran away without looking back.

The ultimate winner of this battle was the adult Snowmane.

Last time, it was the Frostwolf that won; this time, it was the Snowmane that won.

It seems that as both are low-level cold beasts, the Snowmane and the Frost Wolf do not have much difference in strength, it’s just that their fighting methods have different emphases.

Snowmane is large, has a strong impact force, and is very skilled at playing dead;
The Frostwolf makes good use of terrain, likes to attack by surprise, and is fast and agile. Most importantly, it knows to run away if it can't win.

Xia Hong watched the Frostwolf disappear completely into the dense forest, then turned his gaze to Snowmane who was limping towards the small torch, revealing a hint of hesitation.

But the hesitation lasted only a moment.

Xia Hong quickly looked around, pointed at two trees, and said to Yuan Cheng and Xia Chuan:

"See those two trees? When I fight Snowmane, each of you climb one and stay on it. Don't move until I tell you to!"

After Xia Hong finished his instructions, he immediately stood up from the snow, took out a stone axe from his waist, and ran towards Xue Zong quickly.

We have to hurry up, Snowmane will be at the torch soon.

That torch can heal Snowmane's wounds and make him stronger.

In a snowy forest in winter, the smell is not so easy to distinguish.

In this silent jungle, sound is the greatest weapon for all creatures to identify enemies and the environment.

Although it was fifty meters away, Xue Zong had already noticed the moment Xia Hong opened his mouth to speak, but he seemed to instinctively feel that the small reptile over there was not a threat, so he continued to move towards the torch. Unfortunately, its left hind leg was too seriously injured, so it walked too slowly.

He was so slow that Xia Hong had already come behind him. Xue Zong, sensing the danger, could only turn around and look at Xia Hong fiercely.

It was the first time he faced a cold beast, and it was an adult Snowmane.

Although he knew that the other party had just experienced a life-and-death battle and his strength was reduced by 70% to 80%, Xia Hong was still a little nervous.

calm down.

No matter what, they are still beasts.

Xia Hong took a few deep breaths to calm himself down, then met Xue Zong's eyes directly, with a hint of ferocity gradually appearing on his face.

The little reptile in front of him actually dared to look at him. Xue Zong was obviously angered by Xia Hong's behavior. His pupils were red and he suddenly swooped towards Xia Hong.

It's a pity that due to the serious injury to its left hind leg, its speed is too slow.

Xia Hong's eyes focused slightly. Facing the snow-maned beast rushing towards him, he did not choose to dodge. Instead, he put the stone axe in his mouth and bit it tightly, then spread his hands horizontally.

He actually grabbed Snowmane's two long fangs accurately.

Although Snowmane's strength has been greatly weakened due to his serious injuries.

But this sudden impact still knocked Xia Hong back five or six meters.

boom…………

If he had not forced himself to change his route and used his legs to push against a tree behind him to relieve most of the force, he would probably have retreated even further.

"Six thousand four hundred kilograms of force can't stop it. The impact force of an adult Snowmane in its prime is probably more than ten thousand kilograms. No wonder, no wonder you have to reach the Digging Realm to hunt!"

Even as he retreated, Xia Hong's hands were still tightly grasping Xue Zong's fangs.

Xue Zong raised his head and opened his bloody mouth towards Xia Hong in front of him.

When Xia Hong saw this scene, his pupils suddenly froze. He suddenly loosened his right hand and held the stone axe in his mouth. Then, with the force of the left fang when Xue Zong shook his head, his body tilted to the left.

puff...

A five or six meter long, sharp and pointed tongue shaped like an icicle suddenly flew out of Xuezong's mouth. Xia Hong just managed to avoid it, and the terrifying long tongue pierced straight through the big tree behind him.

This is not the end yet. After missing the attack, Snow Mane's tongue suddenly softened, and then it pierced through the tree, suddenly softened, and then turned and tied around Xia Hong's neck.

The scene of the man with a big knife in Dashi Camp, whose head flew high after being entangled by Xuezong's tongue, was still in Xia Hong's mind. He certainly would not let Xuezong succeed.

In fact, Xia Hong had already reacted after catching the stone axe and dodging the long tongue.

The moment Snowmane's tongue pierced through the tree, Xia Hong's left hand also loosened.

He held the stone axe in both hands, and with his legs already standing on the tree, he gave a sudden kick. His body suddenly jumped high up and chopped down at Snowmane's tongue.

Squeak...

Compared to the arrows and knives in the Dashi Camp, the stone axes are certainly not sharp enough.

But, it depends on where the cut is made.

The tongue is basically one of the most vulnerable parts of any living creature, and Snowmane is no exception.

This can be seen from the painful roar that Snowmane made after his tongue was cut off.

Take advantage of his illness and kill him.

The tongue was cut off, and the part behind the tree was naturally useless.

Xia Hong no longer had any worries. He swung his stone axe at Xue Zong's open mouth and chopped wildly. The terrifying force made Xue Zong retreat wildly, but due to his leg injury, he retreated not only slowly but also in a disorderly manner.

He was just swaying left and right, relying on instinct to dodge.

At the same time, Xia Hong yelled at the tree:

"Come down and chop off its right hind leg, quickly..."

Two figures leapt down from the tree and jumped behind Snowmane.

The cold light from the stone axe flashed across Xia Hong's eyes, which were wide open due to the force.

"Have it!"
