Snowworm

Soon, the sun completely set, and endless darkness enveloped the snowfield, with the only light coming from a few torches stuck in the ground.

After the self-heating hotpot was cooked, Lin Feng eagerly opened the lid and took a bite.

“Mmm~ This is the taste.”

The self-heating hotpot he bought was very expensive, so the ingredients wouldn't be bad.

It tasted almost the same as eating at a hotpot restaurant.

“Ow!”

“Squeak, squeak, squeak!”

“Don’t look, you two can’t eat this. Have some dried meat instead.”

Lin Feng said, pointing to the dried meat on the ground.

The Velociraptor and the Treasure-Seeking Rat had no choice but to obey.

After eating, Lin Feng put his helmet back on and lay directly on the snow.

“Big Black, if any life forms appear nearby, wake me up.”

“Understood, Mr. Lin.”

The night temperature in the polar world was much lower than during the day, so no creatures should be out foraging, right?

After confirming that Little Velociraptor’s condition was normal, Lin Feng finally felt at ease to sleep.

The night passed without incident, and just as Lin Feng had guessed, no creatures approached them during the night.

......

Watching the sun slowly rise, Lin Feng yawned and climbed up from the ground.

To be honest, sleeping in armor was really uncomfortable.

Putting his helmet away, Lin Feng took out some dried meat and chewed it, then replenished his water.

The Little Velociraptor and the Treasure-Seeking Rat also woke up one after another.

After eating and drinking his fill, Lin Feng continued to move in the direction indicated by the Treasure-Seeking Rat.

After an unknown number of hours, the sun had already reached the center of the sky when the Treasure-Seeking Rat suddenly spoke.

“Squeak, squeak, squeak! The scent of treasure! The treasure is nearby!”

“Ah? Where?”

Lin Feng scratched his head. Could there be treasure in this place? Was it underground?

Lin Feng looked at the flat terrain around him and thought.

“Hmm, let Ben Shu detect it properly.”

The Treasure-Seeking Rat quickly stood up from the dragon’s head and sniffed the air diligently.

Soon, it showed an embarrassed expression.

“What’s wrong? Don’t tell me the scent of the treasure is gone again!”

Lin Feng was speechless seeing this fellow’s constipated expression.

“Uh, who said that? Keep going forward, just, just one more kilometer and we’ll be there!”

The Treasure-Seeking Rat twisted its head, very confidently pointing forward.

“Alright, I’ll trust you one more time.”

Lin Feng sighed. What else could he do but trust this guy? After all, he didn’t know where to look either.

Just as Lin Feng was about to continue walking forward, the ground suddenly began to shake.

It was as if something was about to emerge from beneath Lin Feng’s feet.

Feeling the change, Lin Feng quickly picked up Little Velociraptor and flew into the air.

The next moment, the ice on the ground shattered, and a giant monster emerged from underground.

It was even several times larger than the Giant Worm Lin Feng had encountered in the desert.

“Beep, congratulations Host for triggering a temporary mission. Please use a melee weapon to kill the Snow Worm. Reward: One chance to use the Cold Weapon Upgrade Gun.”

This can also trigger a mission?

The reward was pretty good. His Technology Rhinoceros Horn Bow had become so powerful thanks to the Cold Weapon Upgrade Gun.

“Squeak, squeak, squeak! Snow Worm! Such a big Snow Worm!!”

The Treasure-Seeking Rat’s two eyeballs were wide and round, and its mouth formed an O shape.

“You know this thing?”

“I know it! I just haven’t seen one this big. Oh, right, its skin is very hard, and its weakness is inside its body. Can you beat it? If you can’t, let’s run quickly. Ben Shu doesn’t want to die! Squeak, squeak!”

“Heh heh, it’s just a bug.”

If it weren’t for the system’s mission, Lin Feng would have directly sent it to the afterlife with an energy cannon.

For now, he should first send the Little Velociraptor and the Treasure-Seeking Rat to a safe place.

Lin Feng looked around from high in the sky and finally placed the two foodies on a large tree.

“You two wait here. I’m going to buy you an orange.”

“Squeak, squeak! Ben Shu doesn’t like oranges. Bring Ben Shu a peach.”

“Awooo! Awooo!”

Lin Feng ignored what they were saying. After drawing his Tang Dao and performing a flourish with it, he transformed into an afterimage and flew towards the giant Snow Worm.

“Roar!!”

The Snow Worm looked at the small fly flying towards it, and with a flick of its tail, countless ice shards floated in the air.

Then, like throwing darts, they shot towards Lin Feng.

Amidst such dense ice shards, even Lin Feng couldn’t achieve 100% evasion, so he could only constantly swing his Tang Dao to break the incoming ice shards.

Fortunately, the Tang Dao was hard enough. After a series of impacts, the blade showed no wear, and the flames were still vigorous.

The Treasure-Seeking Rat, watching from a distance, tidied its whiskers with its two paws.

“Squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak!” (Your master is so awesome.)

“Awooo! Awooo!” (What are you saying?)

“Squeak, squeak, squeak!”

“Awooo! Awooo!”

“Squeak, squeak!”

“Awoo~”

........

Neither the Treasure-Seeking Rat nor the Velociraptor knew what the other was saying, but they chatted happily.

At this moment, Lin Feng had successfully evaded the ice shard attack and arrived at the Snow Worm’s blind spot, then stabbed down with his Tang Dao.

However, it was not as smooth as Lin Feng had imagined. The Tang Dao was directly repelled, almost slipping from Lin Feng’s control.

Since the Tang Dao wouldn’t work, then I’ll use the laser knife!

Lin Feng put the Tang Dao back into its sheath, then took out the laser short blade and stabbed it directly in.

Feeling the pain in its lower body, the Snow Worm’s body instantly twisted like a pretzel, and then, countless small eyes appeared on the part attacked by Lin Feng.

It made Lin Feng feel like his trypophobia was about to act up.

These small eyes had no offensive capabilities, but they seemed to have healing abilities.

The wound that Lin Feng had just cut healed completely in no time.

The healed skin seemed to have become even harder, so much so that even the laser short blade could not pierce it.

Seeing this, Lin Feng turned his gaze to the Snow Worm’s mouth.

It seemed he could only kill this Snow Worm from the inside.

He had a resurrection coin, so he might as well take a gamble.

The resurrection coin was Lin Feng’s trump card. If he didn’t have it, Lin Feng probably wouldn’t be so daring.

After flying to the same height as the Snow Worm, Lin Feng drew the Tang Dao again.

The laser short blade was too short, only a dozen centimeters, and the damage it caused was very limited.

The Treasure-Seeking Rat had already said that this guy’s weakness was inside its body, which meant that its inside should have no defensive capabilities, and the Tang Dao was completely sufficient.

After putting the scabbard back into his cowhide backpack, Lin Feng looked directly at the Snow Worm.

“Roar!!”

Watching the Snow Worm pounce towards him, Lin Feng was not flustered at all. Instead, he charged towards the Snow Worm.

And quickly rushed into the Snow Worm’s mouth, flying down through its neck.

Big Black also automatically activated night mode.

“Warning, a large amount of strong acid liquid exists around the battle armor. Please evacuate this area as soon as possible.”

“Got it, just hold on a little longer!”

Lin Feng controlled the battle armor to continue flying down a certain distance, found the right position, and stabbed the Tang Dao into the flesh wall.
