Bizarre Survival: I Can Devour Thousands of Talents

Chapter 151: The Frost Troll, Slashed in One Go!

Ling Xiao sheathed his sword and stood there, with more than a dozen frost wolf corpses lying haphazardly on the icy plain in front of him.

The rising golden experience cluster was interspersed with specks of eerie blue light.

[Congratulations on successfully defeating the 'Mutant - Frostwolf'!]

【congratulations……】

[Your experience level has reached the upgrade requirement!]

[Level upgraded to LV21! +1 free attribute point!]

[Talent plundering in progress... Current success rate 95.4%...]

[Plunder successful! Talent - [Cold Vitality (Normal)] equipped!]

Normal luck.

All four talents of the Frostwolf monster were maxed out.

After a brief moment of thought, Ling Xiao also left behind the [Cold Resistance] ability to enhance cold resistance.

Then feed it all the remaining talents to help it level up to [Excellent].

A sudden encounter.

In reality, it was just wishful thinking on the part of this pack of Frostwolf.

Those who play tactics have dirty minds.

Lingxiao had long sensed their approaching stealthily under the cover of the snowy hills, but he did not disturb them.

Instead, take this opportunity to carefully observe the differences in attack methods and other aspects of the monsters after the version update.

[Spatial Echo]

Not only can it perceive, but it can also activate space from a great distance to make a slight "response".

Ling Xiao used this opportunity to discover more information about the target.

Previously, we could only discern their size and quantity, but now we can begin to glean their strength and attributes!

So, after realizing that these monsters were of decent level but not very strong.

He simply asked the convoy to stop and wait for a while.

With a slight effort, he annihilated all of the dozen or so Frostwolf wolves, whose average level was LV20.

"Oh! Frostwolf?!"

Iron Hammer Sister suddenly screamed, and the spoils of war sent back by Ling Xiao flashed in her hand.

She stroked the soft fur of the frost wolf's corpse, her face showing no fear, but rather a broad smile.

"The pelts from the new monsters are all high-quality items!"

"With these, we won't lack clothes to wear!"

……

The previous heavy rains affected every part of the district.

The same was true of the heavy snow last night.

Fortunately, as the convoy gradually moved south, Ling Xiao, who was extremely sensitive to temperature, also caught a glimpse of "warming up".

Actually, this is an "illusion".

Because his mental and physical strength are both too strong.

Therefore, in the face of abnormal external temperatures, internal changes automatically occur in order to resist them.

For example, after getting used to the drop in temperature, his body has begun to increase its own heat production.

Although it's not an exaggeration, Ling Xiao could feel the extra heat.

The cold wave moves from north to south.

And it should still be faster than the speed of the convoy.

Therefore, the surrounding temperature is still trending downward, but it is somewhat "slow" for Lingxiao.

That's why he mistakenly felt a slight "heat"...

……

The snow-covered landscape was vast and monotonous.

When you've been traveling alone for a long time, you start to hope for some unexpected event even when nothing is going wrong.

However, Ling Xiao was inherently resilient.

With the convoy following closely behind, I didn't feel lonely at all.

Instead, they took this opportunity to focus their attention on figuring out the "strategy guide" for the new version.

Simply copying the version of the answer summarized by [Rain Falls and Torrents] is definitely not acceptable, but since it is also a natural disaster, it has some reference value.

Rain and snow are similar in nature.

But now that [Thousand Miles of Frozen Land] is online, the survivors not only need to endure a longer period of time, but they also cannot have a fixed stronghold to hold, and must move south.

Indeed.

Daytime without rain or snow is very beneficial for exploration.

However, with the thorn in their side task of "migrating south," the more flexible convoys could only head south and could not wander around at will.

Rather than passively accepting and adapting to change, Ling Xiao prefers to ponder the underlying reasons.

Since their arrival in this world, the system has been helping the survivors survive, from the initial mission prompts to basic items including food.

Encouraging people to venture out and explore, encouraging them to join guilds...

There are very few lone wolf players left in server 6103.

The number of survivors will still decrease, but it won't be as devastating as the first night when the gray fog reappeared.

That high-up, all-encompassing system will not do useless work.

Make all the survivors migrate south...

What exactly is in the North?

Or……

What is there in the south that they need to explore and discover?

Ling Xiao thought it was more likely the latter.

Because the former is very simple, just state it directly.

He refused to believe that even with a clear system notification that a level 100 BOSS had appeared in the north, there would still be people stubborn enough to brave the wind and snow to go and check it out.

of course.

Human diversity means that such talents will definitely exist.

However, most people will run as far as they can and as fast as they can.

So... what exactly is in the south?

The distant gaze refocused.

In the vast expanse of white snow, a dark hole stands out conspicuously.

……

After the convoy stopped on a hillside 200 meters south of the cave entrance, Ling Xiao and Qi Heng, along with a team of combat personnel, discussed matters at the cave entrance.

"Hey! I've been sitting here doing nothing the whole way!"

Qi Heng frowned, his face full of displeasure.

"Brother Xiao, you've been working hard all the way here! You're just going to give this little task of stretching your muscles to your brother?"

"Could it be... that you're afraid I'll surpass you?"

"hehe,"

Ling Xiao rolled his eyes at him. "If I wanted to level up quickly, I should have had you clear the way. I'd just run off and hunt somewhere far away!"

"Urgent! Urgent! What's the rush?!"

"And you guys too, you just rushed over as soon as you were encouraged, shouting 'Men must fight!' without even knowing what was going on down there!"

"These guys are so arrogant, what? Think they're invincible?"

He scolded him with exasperation, "What makes humans advanced animals is that they have brains and can use them!"

"From now on, anyone who has a brain but doesn't use it should go stand in the snow and calm down!"

These explorers, whose combat strength ranks among the top in the entire region, all lowered their heads when they were swept by Ling Xiao's cold gaze.

They had never seen Ling Xiao angry.

But you can also sense that Brother Xiao wasn't really angry; he was more helpless and offering advice.

However, even the leader, Brother Dao, was reprimanded with a guilty conscience, so how could they dare to laugh and joke around?

Just show an honest attitude of admitting your mistake.

After spending this time together, they all saw Brother Xiao's personality.

Although he wasn't as carefree as Brother Dao, he wasn't arrogant either.

He is a very nice person, you could even say he is "gentle".

As peers, they actually felt a kind of "benevolent father" aura under Ling Xiao's leadership.

They are tough on the outside, but gentle on the inside.

So even though Brother Xiao scolds them, he'll most likely still understand them...

really……

"Stay put!"

Ling Xiao said irritably, "I'll go down and take a look first. You guys get ready and wait for further instructions."

"If you're so capable, then you'd better get moving! And if you're retreating, then run faster!"

"Brother Xiao,"

Wearing thick cotton armor, Park Seok tentatively asked, "What if you run into trouble and need our help?"

"Am I in trouble?"

Ling Xiao laughed out loud upon hearing this.

"Then you'd better run faster! The biggest help you can give me is to not distract me."

"Alright! Stay put!"

That's all.

He waved his hand, turned around, and walked into the cave.

The latest novel is first published here!

……

As Ling Xiao went deeper, the surrounding temperature did not warm up, but instead slowly dropped.

There were no monster attacks along the way.

After the slope beneath his feet leveled out, he activated the [Ember Radiance] to make its light even brighter, illuminating the complex terrain at the bottom of the cave.

Actually, it's not that complicated.

It was nothing more than many thick icicles rising from the ground, with cold air permeating between them, turning this place into a icy prison!

His spatial perception seemed to be frozen by the cold air, so he could only use the most primitive reconnaissance methods.

Ling Xiao's gaze suddenly stopped as he quickly scanned the area.

Two o'clock position.

Something seemed to flash behind the icicle.

It's not an illusion.

The focused spatial perception extended in that direction, and Ling Xiao accurately captured a burly figure.

It stands about three meters tall and exudes a chilling aura.

Most importantly, this guy was even carrying a weapon!?

He held a rough icicle shaped like a baseball bat in his right hand.

It was definitely not light, but the opponent's movements were not affected at all.

His physical strength is clearly immense!

Logically speaking, this guy should be the owner of this underground cave.

Ling Xiao, who barged in abruptly, showed no courtesy or self-awareness as a guest.

After sensing the strength or weakness of the other party.

As the [Embers of Radiance] shone brightly, a blade of light, trailing a fiery tail, slashed in an arc and shot towards that direction!

bang——

The icicle shattered!

The chilling air that filled the space was dispersed by this blazing slash, allowing spatial perception to spread smoothly!

Ling Xiao didn't make a move.

When they make a move, it's with overwhelming force!

How could a single ice pillar possibly destroy or completely deplete a blade of light aura enhanced with multiple buffs?

"Aww!"

The monster roared and leaped out from behind the ice pillar where it was hiding.

The solid muscles didn't bulge out like an explosion, but were as hard and cold as solid ice.

Short tufts of fur grow thickly on its neck, arms, and lower abdomen, exuding a wild and untamed energy.

The head looked neither human nor inhuman, with all the facial features intact but in a terrifying shape!

Disheveled dark red hair covered a ferocious face!

Beneath his large nose were jagged, long, and sharp teeth, and two icy blue eyes were set in deep sockets, radiating a terrifying greed and murderous intent!

The ice pillars around him were cleaved diagonally, but the ice troll showed no fear whatsoever.

He charged forward, brandishing his giant club!

A fleeting glimpse!

【LV22 Frost Troll [Mutant] (Normal)】

[Racial Traits: Cold Weather Adaptation, Frostheart, Frost Armor, Troll Bloodline (Limited)]

[Racial Skills: Frost Breath, Cold Regeneration, Mighty Swing, Ice Step, Ice Spike Assault]

【个体属性：力量26/敏捷16/体质24；灵性17/感知22/精神15】

[Individual Description: A terrifying race from the icy plains, renowned for their powerful frost magic and astonishing strength. Their history dates back to...]

Ling Xiao was somewhat surprised by the rapid replenishment of battle information.

This is just an ordinary monster?!

He never underestimated any opponent, especially those he was willing to fight to the death with.

In his opinion, the Frost Troll's various templates were already comparable to those of the Earthfire Dragon Lizard, which possessed dragon blood!

If the opponent is an elite species, their strength will definitely soar to a point where he has to take them seriously.

Boss?

That would really make Ling Xiao suffer a bit, and even experience the taste of defeat.

Troll bloodline, that's something else.

Even if it's slightly lower in quality than dragon blood, it's still not something an ordinary creature can easily fool.

But so what!?

Ling Xiao is not one of those useless people who only rely on monopolistic practices, plundering, cheating, and deception to maintain their ranking!

Bloodline?

He has one too!

And there's more than one!

Putting aside the refined dragon blood and the bloodline of the deep-sea royal family, he himself has absolute confidence and dares to draw his sword in the face of any powerful enemy!

"roar!!!"

The tall, muscular ice troll strode forward, rapidly closing the distance as its eyes gleamed with an icy blue light!

Despite losing [Danger Reflexes], Ling Xiao still has other talents.

Moreover, their long-standing combat experience allowed them to make the right response immediately!

He shifted his feet and deftly dodged two steps to the side.

A sharp ice spike suddenly grew out from where he had been standing!

If he hadn't dodged in time, Ling Xiao would probably have been pierced through and lifted up!

Trolls don't only know this one move.

Combo attacks and adaptability are not unique to humans.

Seeing Ling Xiao dodge.

The Frost Troll charged forward, swinging its club as it passed an ice pillar!

The icicle shattered instantly, and the resulting fragments rained down on us like a storm!

Ling Xiao rarely encountered an interesting opponent, and though he was eager to try his luck, he didn't immediately unleash his killing move.

Dimensional Slash is too overpowered.

Revealing it now is somewhat bullying the other side.

Besides, he has new skills that need to be tested in real combat!

The already raging protective energy surged instantly!

Lingxiao wielded his sword and slashed!

【Overlord Blade - Whirlwind Style】

Amidst the crimson flames, a wisp of strictly enforced black light streaked past!

In Lingxiao's high-flying slash, this extremely refined and domineering sword energy subtly became the core of countless qi!

The flying ice fragments were fine upon contact with the protective energy; they simply shattered upon collision with the two forces.

But what if you encounter that wisp of sword energy?

moment!

The ice will be destroyed so badly that not even ice shards remain!

The Overlord Blade is domineering!

What is domineering?

After a brief defensive maneuver, Ling Xiao immediately charged forward with his sword, charging straight at the troll like an ant trying to shake a tree!

With a sword in hand, even if the Heavenly King himself stood in his way, it wouldn't stop him from unleashing this long-range attack!

The Frost Troll clearly hadn't expected this either.

This little mouse that trespassed into my territory dared to charge at me!

An even stronger rage immediately welled up in its heart, and its already imposing stride quickened even further!

This is its true speed!

That was all a deception!

Now that Lingxiao has taken the initiative to approach, it saves it from having to take a few more steps.

The big stick came crashing down!

Correspondingly, Ling Xiao also swung his long sword!

However, the latter is not just a blade.

A cluster of blazing flames snaked and stretched out, its leading edge of black light forming a terrifying flame blade several meters long!

The two collide!

boom!!!

A violent explosion rang out.

Don't let the troll's rough appearance fool you; this cunning old fox is not only wielding a club, but also casting spells to unleash ice spikes!

In its presence, even Ling Xiao seemed much more "simple".

Because the latter doesn't need these little tricks anymore.

All he needs to do is concentrate and deliver this strike with all his might!

The icicles shattered!

The big stick broke!

The burly troll was immediately sent flying backward, smashing through a series of ice pillars!

Ling Xiao disengaged from his sword-wielding stance and slowly straightened up.

He himself was shocked by the previous knife attack.

The exquisite longsword in his hand, crafted with precious materials and meticulously by Sister Iron Hammer, was actually struggling to withstand the violent spiritual power!

The Iron Heart Knife trembled slightly...
