I transformed into a cute girl and lived a carefree life in the apocalypse.

Only by becoming stronger!

..........

Africa.

This is the hottest place on earth, which also created this fertile land, but now, all I feel is coldness.

Heavy snow fell, freezing everything in its path. Every tree was laden with thick snow, and from a high vantage point, it resembled a continuous snow-capped mountain range. Many of these 'snow mountains' broke and collapsed under the weight of the snow...

As far as the eye can see, everything is white. No matter what objects are placed there, it's like looking at a blank sheet of paper, and you will subconsciously ignore them.

However, in one particular location, there is an existence that cannot be ignored.

"Phew—what the hell is going on?!" Mu Mu exclaimed, feeling extremely uncomfortable.

Do you know what it feels like to enter a spatial rift from scorching hot earth one second and emerge into a frozen wasteland the next? Mu Mu wondered if she had discovered a spatial wormhole or if her strength had increased so much that she had suddenly arrived at the South or North Pole.

The climate here seems even colder than the poles of Earth, capable of annihilating everything. Mu Mu concluded that this cold wind had arrived suddenly.

Because all four sections are ice sculptures themed around mutated species, it's easy to see from their bewildered expressions that they didn't understand the actual situation either.

According to Mumu's initial estimate, the number of mutated species that died in this freezing disaster may have reached six figures, or even more.

Even if we take a step back and assume it's almost winter, let's just consider it as a snow disaster that hasn't been seen in thousands of years.

This massive snowstorm has covered the area, but since it's like a rootless plant, it should disappear completely soon and won't last long.

But in Mu Mu's view, this snow may never stop, as if the entire land has turned into the permafrost of Siberia, which must have taken hundreds or even thousands of years to become like this.

This is a fundamental change that won't disappear so easily with hot weather.

Then the problem is coming.

What has caused this unusual climate here?

Mu Mu's lips curled into an intrigued smile, her boredom from the absence of Yan Ziming and Ye Qianxue finally satisfied.

She took some photos along the way and sent them back to the command center. Mu Mu walked on this glacial land, untouched by wind and snow, as if she did not exist in this world. The wind and snow would blow right through her body.

Suddenly, a snow-capped mountain nearby collapsed, pressing down like Mount Tai, and the heavy snow blocked out the sunlight, plunging us into darkness.

whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh—

The moment the heavy snow fell, it produced a sound that should never have existed—a sudden, explosive noise. The air caved in, creating a powerful gust of wind that rippled outwards.

boom!

The snow within a hundred-meter radius vanished completely. Ten meters from the center, the snow was even compressed into an ice surface by the immense pressure, and then shattered into millions of pieces under the tremendous force of the palm strike, exploding outwards like a rain of death bullets.

However, in the next instant, these scattered bullets suddenly converged into a straight line, which then slowly widened, revealing the dark void hidden behind them.

"Roar--!!!"

A deafening roar, tinged with pain, erupted from there, as if the creature had experienced the agony of separation and descended into rage.

Mu Mu's figure appeared a thousand meters away. She had sensed something was spying on her from the beginning and had been on alert ever since.

It was an SSS-level mutated species, and a high-level one at that. Although Mu Mu wanted to fight it, that wasn't the most important thing. After digging a hole and gaining some advantage, Mu Mu quietly left.

"So far away..."

After walking in a straight line at a speed of fifty kilometers per hour for about twenty minutes, I still couldn't see the edge of it, which shows how vast this snowfield is.

If it weren't for the satellite navigation system showing that he was indeed in Africa, Mu Mu would have thought he was actually in the North or South Pole.

Everything Mu Mu saw and heard along the way could almost be written into a biography; he had never seen such magnificent scenery on the African continent.

After walking for about twenty more minutes, the temperature in the air rose slightly, and Mu Muzhong finally saw the edge of the continent. She could vaguely see the African continent that she knew so well ahead.

So far, Mu Mu has traversed the entire ice field, covering a distance of approximately thirty-four kilometers.

But even in the end, Mu Mu still couldn't figure out what had caused this place to become like this.

The answer remains hidden beneath the ancient glacier...

76. Hoo-ha~~ Hey-ya~~ Pu-ha—

"Ara~~Ara la la la la~~My dear disciple, I knew you'd miss me~~"

Mu Mu was in an extremely good mood at this moment. He hugged Ye Qianxue like a human body pillow, rubbed his face against hers, and was just short of giving her a kiss.

Ye Qianxue, on the other hand, looked disgusted, wondering why she had come here on a whim. Wasn't she just here to be this juice-extracting girl's sex toy?

Despite her dislike, Ye Qianxue didn't regret it, because the place where her family was was her true home.

The surrounding area was filled with large groups that had already arrived. However, the first group consisted of only about thirty people, more than half of whom were people with superpowers, plus a few experts from Russia who had experience surviving on ice fields. The rest were scientific researchers who were preparing to explore this African permafrost.

This number of people is definitely not enough to conduct a comprehensive exploration of this ice field; second and third batches of personnel from other countries will be coming later.

The first task was to find a suitable location to set up camp and wait for the arrival of follow-up troops before launching a full-scale operation.

However, Mu Mu had already found a location: the summit of a snow-capped mountain. She had used her unparalleled skills to forcibly flatten the rugged peak, making it both concealed and convenient for their work.

Now all they need to do is set up the equipment and arrange for personnel to stand guard in case of any unforeseen circumstances.

After all, this is the African continent, a deep red zone of occupation!

"So, what's wrong with Xiao Momo?"

Perhaps feeling he had taken enough advantage of Ye Qianxue, Mu Mu suddenly changed his expression, so quickly that it was like watching a TV series where a veteran actor's performance suddenly skipped a few minutes—omitting tens of thousands of words of content.

"What do you mean, Master Sister?" Ye Qianxue asked, her words muffled, because Mu Mu had already pinched her face.

"Unless something unexpected happens, you unfilial son would abandon your sister and come all the way to Africa to find me? Don't play innocent with me!"

Mu Mu gently pinched and kneaded Ye Qianxue's bouncy cheeks, her eyes filled with doubt.

[Hmph~~ With my unparalleled wisdom, how could I not understand what you little rascal are thinking?]

"That's going too far! Even Qianxue sometimes longs to spend some quality time with her master!" Ye Qianxue protested fiercely, feeling that Mu Mu was questioning her duty as a dutiful disciple!

"Well, I've received the person. I'll make good use of them during this time~~"

use......

Ye Qianxue felt a chill. Isn't the word 'enjoy' usually used? Although neither is much better.

"You still haven't answered my question. What happened to Xiao Momo?"

Mu Mu grabbed Ye Qianxue, who was trying to escape, and pulled her into the tent. If she still didn't give in, then a huge 'battle' would take place inside the tent.

"Hmm... to put it simply..."

Ye Qianxue briefly summarized what had happened, and Mu Mu felt a little dizzy after listening to it.

These two sisters are really eccentric; they can't have peace wherever they go. Are they protagonists who jumped out of some detective and suspense anime?

"But we still don't know what happened to Xiao Momo? And what exactly is that Ziwei Star? Is it really harmless to her?"

Mu Mu discovered many points worthy of questioning, but due to the remote location and her own mission, she could only choose to put them aside for the time being.

After all, it was Liu Mengxian who said Yan Ziming was alright, so she could still choose to rely on her.

"Master, what's going on here?"

"I don't know, it was like this when I came here. Pretty amazing, right? I was shocked myself. Africa, which is known as hell on earth, has turned into a winter wonderland... It sounds so far-fetched."

Ye Qianxue was curious about everything around her, so she casually summoned a clump of falling snow, and then...

“Huhaha!”

It was swiftly stuffed into the clothing between Mu Mu's neck and shoulders.

"Hiss...you little rascal!"

Mu Mu shivered from the cold. She was completely unprepared for Ye Qianxue's advances and was caught off guard. Enraged, she decided to drag Ye Qianxue back and turn her into a snowman.

"La la la~~" Ye Qianxue ran away with a giggle, and Mu Mu, restrained by her words and actions, did not chase after her, but smiled helplessly.

[Little rascal.]

She enjoyed this feeling; it was much better than being alone in this icy, snowy place.

At this moment, a lieutenant stepped forward, respectfully saluted Mu Mu, and said:

"Captain Mu Mu, the resettlement work has been completed. There are now 18 combat personnel and 14 experts in geology, climatology and other fields. We are ready to begin reconnaissance at any time. Please give instructions."

In this world where strength reigns supreme, Mu Mu, being the strongest among them, naturally became the captain.

Even if the captaincy is given to someone else, they are in Africa, and everyone will regard the person who can save their lives as their backbone. Therefore, it would be somewhat awkward for anyone other than Mu Mu to serve as captain.

Mu Mu proudly raised her head and glanced around. All she saw were instruments and equipment she couldn't understand. However, she did see a ground-penetrating radar. She wondered which generation it was and whether it was some kind of 'big bomb'.

"Let's begin. Although I don't know much about this, remember not to do anything reckless that might reveal our location during exploration. I can't protect you all by myself; this is Africa!"

"Yes!"

The man withdrew respectfully.

Mu Mu stood atop the highest point of the snow-capped mountain, hands clasped behind his back, his magnificent snow robe blending perfectly with the surrounding scenery.

Her clothes were very thin, and although it's said that women are beautiful, they perfectly accentuated her stunning figure, but only she dared to dress like that.

If anyone else wore clothes like hers and stayed in this extremely cold place, they would freeze into an ice sculpture in just a few minutes. Even a sixth-level ability user would be the same; this is the difference in life level.

Mu Mu gazed into the distance, his eyes seemingly tangible, observing which places would be suitable for the subsequent troops to set up camp.
