An invincible journey starting from a different race

Shirley said helplessly, "Do I still have the option of refusing?"

"Yes." Aesop said sincerely, "If you don't want to, we can replace you. Look, there are two more lying behind you."

Shirley's mouth twitched slightly, wondering if Aesop didn't understand what she was saying. She was obviously willing.

This outsider looked strange, but she really had no other choice now. She could only nod and say, "I'm willing to cooperate. What are you going to do?"

Aesop pointed at the force of nature beneath Shirley and said, "This thing is supporting your body's recovery, but we don't know if it can fully restore you. If we remove it, will you return to your frozen state? We want to know."

The curse hasn't been lifted yet...

Shirley glanced hesitantly at the force of nature beneath her. Although she didn't want such a strange thing inside her body, and it existed in this form, she was even more reluctant to return to her frozen state. But after a few moments of internal struggle, she realized that she really had no choice and could only nod in agreement.

So, after Shirley's spirit had almost recovered and Aesop gave her some frozen fish to eat, he took out the power of nature again in front of everyone.

At the beginning, Shirley was in very good condition and seemed to be in good health.

But after a while, Shirley's breathing slowed down little by little, and her expression gradually became ugly.

"I feel... my body is returning to the state it was in when the evil wind blew through it." Shirley's speech became difficult, and the color in her eyes was gradually fading, but she tried her best to make herself anxious. "I, I can't take it anymore. Quick, give me that..."

But Aesop remained unmoved and just watched from the side.

"I really... can't take it anymore!" Shirley's tone was filled with pleading, "I really don't want to go back to that state... Please, hurry, give it to me..."

She stretched out her hand with great effort, wanting to take the power of nature from Aesop's hand.

But Aesop took a step back and didn't let her get it.

Everyone looked at Aesop in surprise: "What are you doing?! Why don't you give it to her?!"

Everyone thought that Aesop would give the power of nature to Shirley, but no one expected that Aesop would just watch. When Shirley struggled more and more on the ground and became more and more painful, Stank wanted to snatch the power of nature from Aesop.

But Aesop just glanced at Stank and said, "What's the point of drinking poison to quench thirst? If you don't understand the principle, how can you really save her?"

With just one sentence, Stank was blocked back.

Yes, if the principle is not understood, then everything they do will be meaningless. There are so many cursed creatures in this snowy field, and they can't stab them one by one, and in a way that they can't be pulled out. How can they save people then?

Therefore, when facing Aesop's sincere gaze and faint questioning, Stank couldn't help feeling a little guilty.

In this respect, he is still not as good as Aesop.

Although Aesop is a pervert, a troublemaker, irrational, and incomprehensible, he is ultimately a kind person who values life.

Therefore, Stank did not try to stop Aesop, but instead supported him with all his strength: "I'll do as you say."

Not long after, Shirley fell into the frozen state again.

There was about half an hour between the time Aesop took out the power of nature and the time Shirley returned to her cursed frozen state.

It took Aesop about five minutes to charge Shirley with the power of nature.

Charge for five minutes and last for half an hour?

Aesop silently memorized the number.

"Can we restore her now?" asked Stank.

Aesop glanced at the snow fox girl who had fallen to the ground and returned to her frozen state, and shook his head: "No, not yet."

"Why not?"

Aesop pointed to the other two pairs of legs in the snow. "And those two people. We must test whether individuals of different races and physiques have different responses to the blessing of nature and resistance to the icy curse."

Hearing Aesop say this, Stank felt sincere admiration in his heart.

I thought to myself that this is just like him. Although he looks careless on weekdays, he looks more reliable at times like this.

This is not a Wild Cowboy at all, he is clearly a rigorous and knowledgeable person.

Anyway, everyone present was convinced by Aesop, even the penguin sisters were no exception. After all, they saw with their own eyes that Aesop used the stone called the power of nature to bring the frozen snow fox back to life.

Maybe he can really break the curse?

So, everyone worked together to drag the other two people out of the snow pile. One of them was the snow rabbit girl, and the other was the snow bear girl that Bruce liked.

At the same time, Aesop also took out parchment and made a table to ensure that the results of this experiment would be as accurate as possible and there would be no mistakes.

Seeing Aesop doing this, Stank couldn't help but sigh: "Aesop, I really misunderstood you before. I always thought you were a delinquent. Now it seems that you may just be a little different from us in your thinking. In other aspects, you are very admirable."

"is it?"

"Yes." Stank nodded and said solemnly, "Don't worry, I will never call you a delinquent again."

Aesop nodded.

Then Stank asked, "What should we do now?"

Aesop thought for a moment and said, "Let's try it now. I wonder if the effects of natural forces on different parts of the body will be different."

Before Stank understood what Aesop meant, he watched Aesop put the natural force that had just been placed in the snow fox girl's butt directly into the snow rabbit girl's mouth.

"Fuck, just be a human being, you bastard!"

227 Don’t forget your original intention

After a series of experiments, Aesop successfully filled in the table he made, that is, he tried all the variables he had proposed before.

The snow fox girl, snow rabbit girl and snow bear girl were also waking up back and forth, which was really a bit overwhelming, but fortunately they cooperated with Aesop to complete all the experiments.

Ignoring minute individual differences, the three different races had the same recharge time for the same area. For example, recharging the natural force from the lower body allowed for a roughly 30-hour activity period, with five minutes of recharge. However, recharging from the upper body, or through the mouth, reduced the duration of activity by nearly half.

Basically, he could only hold on for fifteen minutes before his eyes became lifeless and he would shout "I can't take it anymore, give it to me quickly", and then he would quickly return to the frozen state.

"If you calculate it this way..." Aesop thought for a while, and then came to a conclusion, "If it enters from the mouth, it can satisfy the needs of three people at once. And if it enters from the back, it can satisfy the needs of six people at once."

"...While there's nothing wrong with your conclusion, and I understand what you mean," Stank said speechlessly, "don't you think that saying something like that could easily lead to misunderstanding? It's so lascivious! We're clearly doing serious research!"

Aesop said, "I feel like I'm pretty decent."

On the other hand, the Frozen Trio, who had been tortured badly, did not show much joy of being alive on their faces.

Shirley looked at the power of nature in Aesop's hand and said with a hint of despair, "Do we have to rely on that stone to survive from now on? Will it be impossible for us to leave that stone again?"

Aesop shook his head: "Of course not."

Shirley looked up at Aesop, a hint of hope in her eyes.

Then she heard Aesop say, "This is my property, and I won't give it to you."

That hope suddenly disappeared and turned into deeper despair.

"Ahem, but we will help you get rid of this curse." Kelimu was speechless at Aesop's train of thought. He couldn't bear to see a girl so sad, especially such a beautiful girl, so he comforted her, "Don't worry, we have a lot of experience in this kind of thing... well, to be more precise, Aesop has a lot of experience. Don't look at him like that, he's actually a very reliable person."

Kelim tried hard to establish a positive image of Aesop in the eyes of others. Although Aesop himself did not care much, others did.

For example, penguin girls.

The farmer asked, "I just heard you and that conch... uh, the other side of the conch must be a very powerful person, right? I heard you and that person say that this is definitely not the first time you have solved a problem like this. So how did you handle it the first two times?"

Aesop replied, "Tap it open."

"...What?" The farmer didn't react.

But Stank was afraid that if this was investigated further, not only Aesop, but all of their images would be shattered.

How do I put this?

Although most of the time, in most cases, they can say without any burden that they are here to act as bodyguards, after all, they are indeed here to break the law.

But at this moment, when they meet a group of girls who are in urgent need of their rescue, are in deep despair, and regard them as saviors, any man would be embarrassed to say that he is just here to escort.

So, in order to avoid this situation, Stank coughed twice and changed the subject: "Um, Aesop, what are you going to do next?"

"Of course we're going deeper." Aesop glanced at Stank and said seriously, "I'm talking about going deeper into the snowfield. Don't overthink it."

"...You don't have to bring that up!" Stank said. "It's like that's all I have in my head!"

"Oh, that's even better." Aesop nodded and said, "I just said that because I was afraid you might misunderstand."

The corners of Stank's mouth twitched slightly, and he took several deep breaths before he reluctantly convinced himself not to be petty with Aesop, otherwise he would definitely shorten his life.

"We have to go deeper anyway," Aesop said, "but not everyone can go."

"Hmm?" Bruce asked. "Why?"

"Because we might also be cursed by the evil wind," Aesop said, "So, to prevent any accidents, we need to shorten the list of people who will continue to advance to within six."

Hearing the number "six," Kelimu understood something. "You're saying that even in the most extreme situation, when we're accidentally cursed by the evil wind, we can still use the power of nature to protect ourselves from being frozen?"

Aesop nodded.

"I see, that's why you did that experiment." Kelim understood and once again admired Aesop's intelligence in his heart.

Except for the occasional... oh no, it should be often. Apart from his frequent inappropriate behavior, Aesop is usually very reliable.

However, Aesop's words aroused the vigilance of Shirley and the others. She looked up at Aesop, her eyes full of anxiety: "You are going deep into the snowfield... What should we do? Will you take us with you?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Snow Bear Lady and Snow Rabbit Lady also raised their heads and looked at Aesop, with the same emotion in their eyes.

To be honest, they really didn't want to go back to the depths of the snowfield where the evil wind was raging, but they were even more afraid of being frozen again and returning to their vegetative state.

"It's definitely not possible to take the three of you with us," Aesop said. "At most, we can take one to lead the way for us. You can discuss among yourselves who will lead the way for us... Uh, forget it, you can do it."

Aesop pointed at Shirley.

Snow Bear and Snow Rabbit were slightly stunned, not knowing why it had been decided. They had originally thought they would compete vigorously, after all, if they didn't go, staying here and returning to the frozen state would be like handing their fate over to someone else.

So Snow Bear Lady and Snow Rabbit Lady immediately stood up and asked in dissatisfaction, "Why her?"

"Yeah, I live further in! I'm more suitable to be the guide!"

"What?! It's obviously me!"

The Snow Rabbit Lady and the Snow Bear Lady originally wanted to unite against the Snow Fox Lady Shirley, but before they could unite, they started quarreling among themselves.

Aesop just glanced at them and said, "I have made my decision. This is mine. If you don't want it, I won't want to save you anymore."

Just one sentence shut up the Snow Rabbit Lady and the Snow Bear Lady. Even though they were unwilling in their hearts, they did not dare to go against Aesop's wishes at this moment. After all, Aesop was their only hope at the moment.

The snow fox girl Shirley looked at Aesop with gratitude, then thanked him solemnly and said that she would definitely lead the way.

This scene made Stank and the others admire him even more. They pulled Aesop aside, and Stank said in a low voice, "You deliberately cut the Gordian knot so quickly because you don't want to focus your energy on this meaningless internal friction. You are really worthy of being you."

Kelim nodded repeatedly and said, "If it were me, there's no way I could make a decision so quickly... I'm sure they'd start arguing. Aesop, you're amazing."

Aesop looked at the two of them with a slightly strange look: "What are you talking about?"

"...What?" Stank was slightly stunned. "Isn't that what you meant?"

Aesop shook his head.

"What do you mean?" Stank asked. "Why did you suddenly choose the Snow Fox?"

"Because the Snow Fox Girl is beautiful and matches my XP." Aesop answered sincerely, "I can't refuse her in my heart."

Stank and Klim fell silent.

After a long while, he suddenly burst out: "Fuck, you are still making decisions with your little head at this time?! Damn it, why?!"

Aesop said in a somewhat strange tone: "Aren't we here to escort the convoy? Why can't we let Xiaotou make the decision?"

This sentence silenced Stank and Klim again.

Yes, they came to the snowfield this time... It seems that they really did not come to save the world, but for a very simple reason.

But after experiencing this series of events, they almost forgot what they came here to do in the first place.

Only Aesop... yes, only Aesop could remain true to his heart and not forget his original intention at this time.

For a moment, Stank and Klim didn't know whether to admire or... admire.

But to be honest, being able to follow one's inner path so thoroughly, no matter what color that path is... is indeed admirable.

"So how should we go?" Kelimu changed the subject again. "I mean, which people should go? I'm not afraid of the curse, so you don't have to count me among the six people. Since Aesop wants to bring Miss Shirley, there are still four spots left."

"Me, Gancho, Bruce, and Amanda?" said Stank. "Isn't that just enough people?"

At this time, Gan Qiu also appeared and said, "But we can't bring Yak Mother with us. What should we do in extreme situations?"

Yes, deep in the snowfield, it would be fatal if there were no yak mother to lead the way, shelter from the wind and snow, and... provide spare food.
