Wizard's Journey

Chapter 310 The Ice Field on the Surface (Part 1)

In the sky above the Nest World, a blood-red moon has been hanging high for six months.

At first, the primitive creatures foraging on the ice and snow were all frightened by this change in their nest world and fled into the nearby nest entrances.

But as time went by, day after day...

On the one hand, the blood-red moon in the sky did not bring any changes to the nest world. On the other hand, the threat from the ferocious and powerful creatures deep inside the nest drove the small creatures, unable to bear the hunger and fear, back to the ice field, where they quickly adapted to the blood-red moon hanging high in the sky.

These creatures of extremely low intelligence failed to notice that, as time passed, the moon hanging high in the sky not only became clearer but also more brilliant and crimson, as if it were about to drip blood.

An ominous and terrifying atmosphere permeated every corner of the world...

……

"Well?"

Green, a demon hunter wizard with only one demon-hunting expedition experience, stood atop the fortress, overlooking the snow-covered alien world that was about to be his second expedition.

Upon seeing this world, instead of the massive Amonro army that Green had imagined surging towards him like in the world of Enigma, even the small animals seemed quite calm, prompting him to let out a soft exclamation of surprise.

Does the world not fear wizards at all?

After all, for Grimm, the transition from the wizarding world to the lair world was just a matter of a moment. As a result, the many fierce and ruthless witch hunters were not taken seriously by the creatures of this world. In his confusion, his sense of existence and self-esteem were even somewhat affected.

Isn't it said that exotic creatures all enjoy fear in the shadow of wizards...?

To Green, the peaceful scene of this world was like a beautiful, naked girl being stared at by a burly, wild man who took her but remained unmoved, even turning his head away and ignoring her.

That's so hurtful to my pride!

"Hehe, what fresh air! What pure and gentle natural energy!"

"Hmph, I'll be the first demon hunter to log into this primitive world!"

Not far from Green, several demon hunters and dark wizards smiled sinisterly and evilly. Their dark elemental eyes radiated a chilling and brutal aura, and an indescribable desire for elemental destruction and slaughter was constantly emanating from them.

hum...

The instant the Origin Space Fortress fully descended upon this nest world, the wizard's shield above the fortress flickered and slowly dissipated.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...

Suddenly, the numerous demon hunters and dark wizards in the fortress square rose into the air, like meteors slicing through the sky, falling to the ground with long elemental tails.

"Hmm? This is...?"

In his confusion, Green, along with many other demon hunters and dark wizards, followed the elemental flames as they swooped down from the sky at high speed.

On the contrary, the numerous soul slaves remained obediently in the fortress square, unmoved.

I remember when we invaded the world of Shadow Enigma, the fortress was besieged by countless Amonro Legions as soon as it entered the world. At that time, the Origin Space Fortress was at its weakest.

On the one hand, many demon hunters have not yet begun to collect despair, and in a world where species are unified, they are unable to form a restraint over the mysteries of life and death.

On the other hand, the intrusive power of the wizarding world's original will has not yet been unleashed, so the witch hunters have no way to activate the wizard shield.

Without the power of despair and the wizard's shield, the true fighting strength of the demon hunter wizards will be reduced by half. Therefore, they can only use a large number of soul slaves to hold off the enemy and buy time.

However, invading this primitive world now presents a completely different picture...

The sudden change in the sky immediately caused a stir among the creatures in this vast ice field. Amidst the flying ice crystals and snowflakes, these creatures, which mainly feed on ice and snow plants, instinctively fled towards the entrances of their nearby nests in fear.

However, with the exception of a very few lucky ones, most of the ice and snow creatures were overwhelmed by a desperate howl.

On the frozen snowfield, the creatures at the top of the food chain are these woolly ice mammoths.

Once fully grown, its body reaches a length of fifteen meters and is covered with a type of fur that allows it to manipulate the power of ice and snow. Its terrifying physical strength makes any carnivorous creature on the icy plains tremble in fear.

An enraged woolly ice mammoth, even deep within its lair, would deter most creatures from taking a backseat.

Seven adult woolly ice mammoths protected four juvenile woolly ice mammoths in the middle, their bloodshot eyes revealing their extreme rage.

Every now and then, they would stand up and wave their noses, only to fall back down with a "thud," causing the earth to tremble and two large craters to appear on the ice, with crystals scattering everywhere, demonstrating their unparalleled power.

With three-meter-long, curved fangs that were incredibly sharp, its massive maw roared deafeningly, and a violent frost force swept outwards, forming a vortex that was piercingly cold.

They were once the true kings of the ice fields of this world!

However, at this moment...

"Hehehehehe, what wondrous fur! Not only does it possess extremely strong resistance to the power of ice and snow, but it can also manipulate a portion of the natural power of ice and snow. It's quite a fine material for weaving a new wizard's robe!"

"Hey! You dare try to take it from me?"

"Damn it, I was the one who targeted this one first..."

Hundreds of demon hunters rushed forward, and after a brief period of chaos, the demon hunters scattered again.

The woolly ice mammoths seemed to have vanished into thin air, leaving only pools of blood-red marks and hair fluttering in the cold wind.

In his hand, Green held a blood-soaked, long-haired ice mammoth hide, blood dripping from its brown fur. This was the spoils Green had just seized from hundreds of demon hunters and dark wizards.

"Ugh, this rotten smell is just like black cat meat, it's absolutely disgusting."

The myna bird perched on Green's shoulder, complaining. One wing covered its mouth, while the other flapped incessantly, its face full of disgust.

Beneath his facade of truth, Grimm's eyes shone with delight as he exclaimed, "Hmm? No wonder so many demon hunters are scrambling for it. If only we could weave a wizard's robe from the fur of this long-haired ice mammoth..."

Green immediately thought of the witch hunter who blocked Gabila when he was chasing Hattori Hizo.

The witch hunter's robes were burning with intense flames, clearly indicating that it was also a precious magical artifact, and the source of the flame energy was a few feathers.

The words before my eyes.

Although this wizard's robe woven from ice mammoth fur is far inferior to the fire wizard's robe of that demon hunter wizard, even so, its enhancement to ice and snow power is probably no weaker than Millie's ice marrow body.

Generally speaking, the more a wizard grows, the less significant the power of a particular talent becomes to them.

With a smile, Green placed his spoils into the dimensional rift, glanced around at the brutal demon hunters on the ice plains who were slaughtering, plundering, and looting all sorts of large creature specimens, sighed silently, and then arrived at a desolate ice plains area that the wizards rarely paid attention to.

As he strolled across the ice field, Green would occasionally bend down to pick up some plant specimens.

The plants in this world are completely different from the fleshy plants in the Shadow Mystery world. The most distinctive feature of the plants in this world is that they are protected by a layer of ice crystals.

Each plant is like a specimen encased in amber, frozen in time, yet protecting itself and propagating according to its unique survival rules.

In the sky, squads of Ming Wizards followed the 300-meter-long spaceship in an orderly formation, while some Ming Wizards seemed to be surveying the terrain, preparing to establish a base command post and Guangling Fortress.

Ok?

As if sensing something, Green made a "crack" sound and plunged his hand into the ice without any resistance.

When he picked it up again, Green had a small, elongated creature, more than half a meter long, in his hand, which kept squeaking.

This long, thin creature was entirely white, almost blending into the ice and snow. It resembled a snake, but had two sharp claws and a duck-like head, and was writhing and struggling in Green's hand.

"Is this a snow worm?"

As Green muttered to himself while observing the snow worms, he was also slightly disappointed with the second phase of his newly completed Project of Truth.

The reason Green was able to detect the snow worms was not because of the Boundless Eye of Truth's ability to perceive hot and cold, but simply because he sensed it by the slight vibration of the ice surface.

In this cold world, the Boundless Eye's ability to perceive hot and cold is a completely useless form of witchcraft.

"Gah gah, young master, look, this should be a snow worm nest, there are so many eggs inside." The myna bird landed on the ice and perched at the opening where Green broke through the ice, chirping.

Green looked over curiously, then gasped in shock, exclaiming, "So many?"

At first glance, there seem to be tens of thousands of eggs in this insect nest!

Each egg is only the size of a grain of rice, crystal clear, and you can vaguely see the snow worm embryo developing in the center of the flesh. This strange little creature is like an ice and snow elf of this world, completely without fear of the cold.

Occasionally, some of the snow worm embryos in the eggs would hatch and begin to gnaw on the minerals their mother had prepared in Green's hands.

A single snow worm has so many eggs; no wonder this tiny creature, even though it's at the very bottom of the food chain, has managed to transform this originally frozen world into a nesting world.

While marveling at the wonder of this tiny creature, Green prepared the snow worm and its many eggs into biological specimens.

One day later.

Each witcher gained some scattered gains, while also acquiring a preliminary understanding of the apparent rules of this world and discovering countless lair entrances.

When conquering the primitive world, witchers don't spend as much time in the wizarding world specifically researching anything as they would when conquering the "lower-level native" world.

What witch hunters need is simply to better adapt to the survival rules of these primitive worlds.

Of the countless nest entrances, three were identified by the sonic magic of the combat command as the true entrances to the World Nest. Therefore, many demon hunter wizards established the first demon hunter combat command between these three nest entrances, as the base for wizards to completely conquer and rule this world.
